of commission. The steam plant was installed only to serve in emergen- cies and 1t was not supposed that 1t ever would be required to carry the load of light and power for the whole valley for more than day or two at a time, but it has been in continuous service for months and is nearly worn out, as are the men who have had the job of nursing 1t along and listening to the complaints of people who con slider 1t a great hardship to be obliged to light a lamp now and then.
 The blockade of the power canal probably has cost the Holton Power Company not less than $10,O00 in ex- tra expense of operation, but Mir. Holt has done less kicking than anyone else in the valley. When there was danger that the work on the dam would be delayed for a long time by litigious interference with the re- ceiver Mir. Holt offered to advance money for the work and take chance on getting it back in order to give the valley satisfactory light and pow CT service as soon as possible.

BUILDING OF ALAMO DAN
Esrthwork and Concrete Structures Wlll be Ready For Service
 In Few Days.

The earth dam on the Alamo north of Meloland is nearly completed, and the concrete gate and wasteway will be ready in about a week for the de- livery of water to the Mesquite Lake district. The dam will back up the waste water from the power plant in the gorge of the Alamo and form lake about two miles long, from which water will be taken through a con- crete gate for the irrigation of 16,- 900 acres heretofore served made quately by the Ash and Alamitos ca nals. The wasteway is a structure of reinforced concrete thirty feet in height, over which water will fall into a basin so constructed as to con sti- tute a water cushion that will break the force of the fall and prevent wash ing out of the pass by which the waste water will return to the Alamo channel below the dam.
 Completion of this work will raise the blockade on the power canal and within week or ten days the Holton power plant may resume operation with water power and put the auxil- iary seam machinery at EI Centro out

LET THERE BE LIGHT
Scheme For Brilliant illumination of
 El centro's Main Highway.

El Centro is to be the most bril- liantly illuminated small city in Southern California-with the possi- ble exception of Venice-if present plans on this line are carried to ma turity. In such an event, Main street would become a White Way" that would add fame to the metropolis of Imperial Valley.
 The idea proposed is a series of electrical illuminations along the frontages of the series of arcades now being erected on the entire block on Main street between Fifth and Sixth streets; the placing of incandescent lights in the ceilings of these arcades, over the sidewalks, and the free use of electric signs in front of the var ious places of business.
 The first building to be adorned will be that occupied by the offices of the Holt companies, at the southwest cor ner of Main and Sixth streets. Wir- ing has been placed for the location of row of Mazda sign lights under meath the projecting tile, other lights are to be placed in the centers of the ornaments in the pressed steel cell ings, and the building is to carry a conspicuous electric sign, "Holton Power Company" Two hundred lights will be used in this decorative scheme
 It Is understood that the Holton Power Company is figuring on mak- ing a low rate to each business man in the block for electric service for signs, or for uniform illumination with frontage lights. The details are being worked out, and the prospect is good that by early fall Main street will present brilliant spectacle each night.
