JULY TRAFFIC
SHOWS INCREASE
BUSINESS OF PORTAGE SHIP CA
NAILS FOR LAST MONTH
SHOWS SLIGHT GAIN OVER
LAST YEAR.

Superintendent George II. Banks of
the Portage Lake ship canals has just
issued his report of the commerce
through the Keweenaw peninsula wa
terways during the month just pass
ed. The report of Engineer Banks
shows that the amount Of traffic
through the canals for last month was
a little above that OF July, 1909. In
orly one particular does the report
Of last month show a loss as COM
pared with that for the previous July,
this being in the number of tugs pass
ing through.
During the preceding July 81 tugs
passed up the canals but these car
ried only 1891 net tons, while the
as tugs that passed through the wa
terways in that direction last month
carried 2.0lS net tonnage. Likewise
56 tugs used the canals down bound
during the previous July against 40
for last month, but the tonnage Of
last month in this department was p
26s. while that of July 1909 was only
1904.
The Figures of the Report.
The report of superintendent Banks
shows that the tonnage and class of
the vessels passing through the ca
nails. The total number % vessels
using the canals last month was 559
and the net tonnage of these was $780,
225. During July, 1909. 54S vessels
used the canals, carrying a net tom
mage of S21,235.
The July report, like that of June,
shows that a larger number of pas
sengers are using the lakes for their
outings this season than for the same
periods last year, The number Of
passengers carried last year in the
month of July was 9,597 bound up
and s,922 bound down, while the fig
ures for this years July are 10,12S up
and 9,471 down. The tonnage
increase of this year over the same
period for last year is about in the
same proportions. The recapitulation
OF the traffice for last month is as
follows:

put an end to the sommerland type of railroad commissioner.
 The peoples choice for this office is John Nj. Eshleman. Clean. able. honest, he possesses the very ouali- ties that are needed for a position of public trust If he receives the re- publican nomination he will be elect - ed, and the people for the first time in many years, will have a man upon this important board who will faith fully represent their interests.
 John M. Eshleman began at the bottom of the ladder, without health. He came to California as a youth and put himself through col lege by dint of hard manual labor. He left the University of California the most distinguished member of his class. Later he studied law, was ap- pointed deputy state labor commits sioner by Governor Pardee, an office which he flied with credit To en- force the laws governing thc ~l ,.r ment of childlen. ne eXel, ttc.te, | with zeal and efficiency. Still lat1f l he was elected a member of the state 1 legislature. and made the first fight 1 for an anti-race- track gambling law. ! His health broke under the strain of this great fight, and he was ordered to Imperial county to gain back his 1 health. He took a leading part in shaping the affairs of the new county
 and was elected district attorney.
 California has need of just that sort of men in public life and Aug. 16 the people will have an opportunity of making a good beginning by nomin- ating Eshleman to the important of 1 fee of railroad commissioner.

RECEIvERSH|P ATTACKED
Judge Cole Holds Court in Los An. gees to Hear Argument for Re-
 view by Supreme Court.

4 session of the Imperial county superior court, with Judge Cole pre- siding, was held at the Los Angeles i county courtroom, to discuss some Of the legal problems in connection with ! the affairs of the California Develop ment Company, organized to furnish i irrigating water to Imperial valley. 1 Judge Cole heard argument and will announce his decision from Ell Centro as soon as he has had time to study the matters submitted.
 The proceedings, says the Los An geles Express, were in the nature of an attack upon the regularity and the validity of the appointment of w. H. Holabird as receiver for the California | Development Company. Argument was heard for the settlement of a bill of exceptions, in order to carry the matter of the appointment di- rectly to the supreme court tor re- view
 The points are raised in the suit of the Title Insurance and Trust com pany, plaintiff, against the California Development Company and others, defendants, an action which followed the issuance by the California De- velopment Company of bonds to the amount of $5OOOOO
 The Title Insurance and Trust con- pany was made trustee for the bene- fit of the bondholders, with power to foreclose upon the property of the California Development Company in case of default of interest or princi- pal payments on the bonds.
 When the suit in foreclosure was brought, Holabird was appointed re- ceiver for the Development company and has been in charge of it's affairs since that time.
 Several parties, including bond holders and those having claims against the California Development Company, stepped into the case as intervenors soon after the original action was filed. All of them were represented in court.
 Some of the intervenors attack the legality of the bond issue as a basis for upsetting the entire proceedings.
 Although the case has never come to trial on it's merits, sufficient pre- liminary questions have arisen con- corning the appointment of a re- ceiver to permit of taking the case to the supreme court. The proceedings Tuesday were to perfec, the record in order to permit the supreme court to pass on the preliminary questions involved.
 Appearing as attorneys in the ac- ton were George Denis and Max Loe- wenthal, for the Southern Pacific company and the Inter California Railway which hold some of the bonds; o'Melveny, Stevens & MilIi- ken, for the plaintiff, Title Insurance X Trust company; J. w. Mckinley and Frank Karr, for the receiver, William H. Holabird; Attorney Mc- Cutcheon of San Francisco for the Liverpool Salt company; Attorney Mcclure and Senator Ives for the California Development Company; John D. Works and Lewis R. Works for R. T.

And they look ALFRED stylish in

But I guess they have their trou-
