city need to have a keener percep- tion of that fact than they have yet shown It is the agricultural wealth of such communities as the Imperial valley and the great orange growing centers like Riverside and Redlands which makes it possible to have a large city in Southern California;; and Los Angeles can well afford not only to be just towards the outside com munities, but to be generous, The pettiness of the action taken on this imperial Valley matter is recognized by the Los Angeles Graphic, which says:
 'I sympathize with the valley peo- pie It is little short of an outrage that they should be compelled to tray el upward of two hundred miles, and bring along two witnesses every time final proof proceedings have to be made. It is unfair and unjust, and should be remedied in favor of the settler. I hope Senator Flint will use ms best efforts to give the valley peo- pie their rights"
 Senator Flint is broad gauge man and we trust he will heed the good advice of the Graphic.

WILL BUILD COTTON GINS
Imperial Valley Oil and Cotton Com pany Adopts Resolution in Re
 gard to Mill Locations.

The Imperial Valley Oil and Cot ton Company at a meeting held last week adopted the following resolu- ton:
 " Whereas, this Company has assur- ance that not, less than one thous- and acres of cotton will be planted adjacent to and in the neighborhood of each of the following stations Redwood, Brawley, Imperial, Fl Gen. tro, Holtville, Heber, Calexico, There fore, be it
 Resolved, that this company will build gin at each of said stations in time to take care of this years cot ton crop, provided, however, if any such locality shall fail to plant and raise one thousand acres of cotton this season, the Company reserves the right to, and will, provide in some other way for the ginning of the cot ton raised in such locality by it's stock holders

LEMON FROM LOS ANGELES
(Riverside Press)

The Imperial valley people are anx- ious to have a commissioner of the land office appointed for that valley so that they will not have to make a journey of 400 miles or more to Los Angeles and return whenever they have business to transact with the land office. They thought that prob ably the Los Angeles chamber of commerce would be glad to help se- cure this recognition and requested an endorsement from that organization on the proposition. After due consid- eration the Los Angeles chamber handed them the following lemon:
 We have investigated the matter and are of the opinion that this cham Der should not act at this time, with out more definite information in the premises. It is doubtful whether the proposed office could be created with out an act of congress. If, howeve, this chamber should, upon inyestiga- ton, ascertain that an increase in the clerical force of the United States land office at Los Angeles, within which jurisdiction Imperial Valley is situated, would assist in more speedy action upon application for patents, it would not, in our opinion, be in- appropriate to take up the matter and act. insofar as it can in bringing about such results"
 Los Angeles seems to be afraid that granting this much needed conyen- fence to Imperial might result in a few less people coming to the metrop- olis But that is a very narrow view to take of the situation and a view that is entirely unworthy that great city. Anything that helps to build up Imperial will in the long run promote the prosperity of Los Angeles; and the business men and politicians of that

VIEWS OF A VISITOR
How the Remarkable Development of Imperial Valley Impressed
 San Dieaan

A resident of San Diego, who re- gently spent some time in Imperial Valley said to the San Diego Union:
 "It is time that San Diegans walked up to the fact that their greatest back country is destined to be across the mountains in Imperial. El Cen tro, which is destined to be the most important city in this wonderful country, already ranks third as a shipping point on the Southern Pa cific system in Southern California It looked good to me to see the grad ing of the other end of the new rail road already commenced at El Cen tro and extending westward for five or six miles across the desert in our direction. Work upon it is constantly going forward.
 No one can gain any conception of what the Imperial country is until he has been there and seen it. Green fields of alfalfa extend as far as the eye Cth lCebSh. OApCCISu lV oCC patches of desert there, but there is no desert to be seen from the rail road. More than 25,0OO people are already living in the valley, and they are the finest type of Americans. The fact that no saloons are allowed to exist anywhere in the valley speaks for the quality of the inhabitants. At tractive new ranch houses are talk ing the place of the tent-houses and shacks of the first settlers. Auto mobiles are much in evidence. Bonds for good roads are being agitated. And all this prosperity which is on the most substantial and permanent basis looks toward San Diego as it's natural outlet for shipping and travel.
 The most interesting crop in the valley just now is cotton, to which some twenty thousand acres have just been planted.
 These ranchers have had a hard struggle with difficult conditions. They have turned the corner and are now on the road to wealth"

WELLS IN cARRIso DISTRICT

N. B. Harmon and Ed Rausin, from the Carriso District report continued drilling of wells there. A well has just been completed on the Harmon place, section g, township 10, range 13, where a good flow of surface wa ter was struck at eighteen feet. Only one deep well has been sunk in the district, but many surface wells have been brought into use. The Coachella Valley Development Company has con- tracts for sinking eight wells there as soon as possible.

NO FOUL BROOD HERE

A F. Wagner, Imperial County Bee Inspector. reports that the valley at this time is free from foul brood among bee colonies. A shipment of bees to Calexico was discovered to have foul brood, and all of these colonies were destroyed. Dr. l.. C. Maynard has brought in a carload of bees and quartered them on the U. S. Handley ranch, five miles west of Fl Centro. He has been conducting an apiary in the Los Feliz district of Los Angeles.

GEORGE A. RAGAN
Candidate for the Office of County
 Superintendent of Schools.

George A Ragan is native of Ohio, forty seven years old, and a graduate of a first rank Ohio college. His post graduate course, leading to the degree of Mas ter of Arts, was taken in the Uni versity of Chicago. He has had about fifteen years experience in teaching and public school work, including all grades from the country district school to the high school, and township su- perintendent
 During the school year of 190S-09, he was Principal of the Fl Centro grammar school. The following un solicited endorsement signed by rep resentatives of nearly every family patronizing the school, reflects their judgment as to his standing in the community and his work as teacher.
 "We, the undersigned patrons of the grammar school of Fl centro, take pleasure in hereby commenting Prof. George A. Raean as faithful and ef- ficient teacher. We most heartily ap preciate his good work as teacher for the term just closed and his good influence over our children as a Chris tian gentleman; and, while it is our earnest dseire that he remain in his position, if he go from US, it is our wish that he may occupy position of greater opportunity for usefulness, for which nature, education, and cuI- ture have so well prepared him."
 His work this year as Principal of the Calexico schools speaks for it. self He is up to date in his edu- cational ideals and methods and has made a special study of the unique educational problems of Imperial Val ley. He believes in definite and nor al instruction in the public schools and provides for personal purity talks in the upper grades in his own school He regards the teachers sphere as broader than the school room and holds that he should be an active factor in the community life. For this reason MT. Ragan is in practical sym pathy with all movements for social uplift and civic righteousness and per sonally identified with most of such movements in the county.
 He believes in Imperial Valley and has invested in it's real estate. Its splendid material, social and educa- tional opportunities appeal to him. He has entered it's life with enthusiasm. In whatever capacity he serves it will be with earnest purpose to help this new county to realize her opportuni- ties. 2-1t

lGODONES CUSTOM HOUSE
Opening of Station by Mexican Gov. ernment Paves Way for Opera ton of Overland Trains
 Through imperial
 Valley

Yesterday the new custom house of the Mexican government at Los Algodones, just over the information al boundary line on the Inter Cali fornia Railroad, about seven miles down the Colorado River from Yuma, was opened for business
 It is believed that the opening of this custom house and the establish ment of large corps of officials means that at an early date at least one of the Southern Pacific overland trains will be operated from Yuma by way of the Inter- California Railroad and through Imperial Valley, instead of over the old route skirting the sand hills along the extreme easterly part of this basin. Such a change would be hailed with pleasure by Imperial Valley settlers. It would be of much benefit in advertising the great re- sources of this valley to the thous- ands of passengers carried by these overland trains.
 Senor Francisco Barron, Mexican Consul at Yuma, has in charge the details of opening the new station for the Mexican government. The corps of officials to be established at LOS Algodones includes one collector of customs, one deputy collector, one general official one clerk, three in spectors and one servant.
