COTTON GROWERS MEET|NG
Everybody Who Expects to Plant Cot ton Invited to be Present-Plans of New Company to be
 Explained.

The next big meeting of cotton growers and prospective planters in Imperial Valley will be held in Ell Centro next Tuesday at 10 a. m. While this will be meeting of the stockholders of the Imperial Valley Oil and Cotton Company, it is to be an open meeting, and all who expect to plant cotton this season are in- vited to attend.
 At this time bylaws for the new company will be presented for adop- tion, and much other business will come before the gathering.
 The call, which has been issued by Secretary L. B. Srack, says in part:
 This will probably be the last big meeting of the season, and the plans of the Company, which is composed of actual cotton growers, will be fully explained, and the adoption of the Bylaws by the Stockholders at that time will complete the organization.
 Some erroneous reports have got ten out which we would be glad to have you come and ask questions about, as this is your company and you should know all about 1t from first hands 1asss.s-sa
 "The new headquarters are in the Oregon Hotel Block, where the officers will be glad to meet anyone interest ed in cotton, and will lend any as- sistance they can to further the inter- ests of the industry.
 From present indications there will have to be some seed shipped in, so it is very important that those not already provided with seed get their orders in at once, in order that we may know how much will be needed"

Chamber of Commerce Asks That SatterWhite Be
 Appointed.
Petition For Establishment of Local
 Tribunal to Deal With Valley Land
 ment-Prompt Issue of Patents Promised by Commissioner Dennett.

The meeting of the El Centro Cham Der of Commerce last Monday night was devoted to consideration of the various steps that have been taken or urged toward expediting the work of the land office in settling questions of title in the valley. The work has been slow because all cases affecting valley lands are heard first in the Los Angeles office, which has been over burdened with the routine work of large district, and it has been need lessly expensive to settlers, who have been obliged to spend time and money on Journeys to the city. The obvious remedy for this state of things is the establishment of land office or land court of first instance in Imperial Val ley, and the Chamber of Commerce has undertaken the task of convincing the Interior Department that a Commis- sioner should be appointed with power to hear and determine, subject to re- view by the Washington office, all I'm perial Valley land cases at an office in this county
 In the opinion of the Chamber and of settlers generally, Special Agent Sat terwhite, who has been engaged for the past year in investigation of land matters in the valley, is peculiarly qualified by his thorough acquaintance with local conditions and by his ex- perience and sound judgment, to per form the duties of Commissioner sat isfactorily to the government and to the settlers, and the Chamber deter mined to endeavor to procure his ap pointment A committee composed of F. B. Fuller, c. N. Perry and John D. Davis was appointed at the meet ing to prepare resolutions presenting the reasons for the desired action and to formulate a petition to be signed by the people of the valley and for warded to Washington. The commit tee is to report to the Chamber of Commerce at a special meeting next hC pOIlIiOI LII 6Al5 prompt issue of patents that is being circulated for the signatures of hold CTS of final receipts also was referred to the committee.
 MT. Satterwhite has not been dis posed to encourage the proposed plan, but says he is willing to undertake the work if the Department puts it up to him. That the Washington of- ficials have confidence in the ability and judgment of Satterwhite is indi- cated by a telegram received by the editor of The Press last Wednesday from Webster and Parazette, the spe- cial delegates sent to Washington by the settlers title committee. The mes sage reads: "Dennett promises pat ents immediately on return of lists of final proofs which he is sending to Satterwhite today for approval"

and cordial in his reception OF the
delegation, giving them assurance thae
it would afford him pleasure to comply
with their request aud accept their
invitation. In view, however, OF tne
numerous demands on his time, 1t
would be impossible for him to De
present during the whole CEREMONY
hut unless something happens to
prevent, which he did not anticipate,
he would endeavor to at least be pres
ent and witness The comforting OF the
Master Mason's Degree and attend the
banquet inl the evening, and suggested
that he would leave the detail OF the
arrangement to his secretary, Captain
Butt, who was. he said, particularly
qualified for this duty as the captain

OF the permanent Memorial Assocla-
ton will occupy at least two days, and
representatives Of Grand Lodge will
be instructed to arrive in this city on
the evening OF the Goth, or at an early
hour on the 2lst. The preparation
and adoption of construction and BY
laws will occupy the attention OF the
delegates on the 21st, followed by the
election OF permanent executive and
administrative officers for the associa-
ton, such president, vice presidents,
secretary, treasurer and such others Us
the association may deem necessary.
An effort will be made to conclude all
work, relative to the Memorial Asso-
citation by twelve O'Clock on the 22nd,
when after luncheon the distinguished
guest will be taken to Mount Vernon.
On the return from Mount Vernon
the Master Mason's Degree will be ex-
emplifcd (unless something interyenes
to prevent, by degree team from Michi-
GAM, concluding with the banquet in

at least two instead of one day, az
before.
About irty-eight grand juridictlons
up to this time, by action of their grand
lodges or through their grand masters,
have endorsed the proposition, giving
assurance that their Jurisdictions will be
represented at the formation OF the
