One of the cleverest girls among the
principals of the Juvenile Boston
ians" who appear at the Opera House
Saturday night is little Thorn HELEN.
This young lady of the peculiar name
was born in Germany and received.
her early musical education from the
best teachers Of the fatherland. When
twelve years old she came to this
country with her parents and two
years ago joined the juveniles as a
member of the chorus. Her splendid
voice soon attracted the attention of
the management and they gave her d
small part to show her acting ability.
She proved to be a natural actress
and was from that time numbered
among the principals. This season
she has one of the leading roles in
''The Ransom," a part that especially
gives her an opportunity to display
her voice.

Imperial Valley press., 1911-12-29

I of the present generation in Lower Cali
! fornia has mostly been educated in the
| schols and colleges of Upper California,
J have contributed to make the people of
| the territory ready for the change of SOW
ereignty In short, the territory in ques-
| ton is not now, and never has been of
| any practical value to Mexico, but on
| the contrary, would have been, and would
! be now of great value to our government
from every point of view.
| When acquired, this territory ought at
once to be annexed to the state of Cali
fornia for purpose of civil government,
and ought to be divided into four to six
| counties and thus be given self govern
I.ment under the laws of California; the
| population by the treaty should become
| citizens of the United States except in
instances where any should elect to re-
| main citizens of Mexico, and thus obviate
the long continued expensive mistake of
subjecting the people to congressional
control in civil affairs.
The long delay in settlement of land I'll
ties, and civil government, under the ter
ritorial plan, has retarded development in
the territories of our country for two gem
erations in Arizona and New Mexico
which experience would justify this inno-
walton. Again to take over this popula-
ton, and at once inject into it emgra-
ton from California now acquainted with
Spanish speaking people, would at once
commence that development and assimi-
lation which under territorial form of
government would be retarded. There
should also be passed an act in congress,
causing a complete survey according to
ba
extended all over the territory, and a
tribunal be established for the speedy ad-
judication of all private land claims and
their patenting through our land depart
ment, SO that there might at once be a
segregation of the government land from
the land in private ownership, so that the
settlement of this country might be ia
clitated and all titles be made certain.
Thus would be obviated the long de-
lay in settling and developing the country,
as was the case in California, Arizona and
New Mexico.
These suggestions are prompted by IA
miliarty with the political history of Cal
norma, New Mexico and Arizona, with
some of which history the writer has be-
come familiar by reading. some by per-
sonal observation and more by an inti-
mate acquaintance with the Mexican
race, both in Mexico and in the territory
acquired heretofore by our government
from Mexico.
The basis of the present revolution in
Mexico teaches US that even the average
Mexican in the past century has, by
contact with the American, been instilled
with principles of civil liberty, and also
teaches us that that population is no
longer to be treated as a mere subject
people to be ruled by dictator.
