OF the sixteen years of Republican adj
ministration under Presidents McKin-
ley, Roosevelt and Taft. We heartily
reatiirm the Endorsement of President
Mckinley contained in the platform Of
1900 and of 1904 and that President
Roosevelt contained in the platform
of 1904 and 1908.
We invite the intelligent judgment
of the American people upon the ad.
ministration of William Howard Taft.
The country has prospered and been
at peace under his presidency. During
the years in which he had the co-op,u
Grafton of Republican congress al. .
unexampled amount of constructive
legislation was framed and passed In
the interest Of the people and in obed.
fence to their wish. That legislation
is a record on which any administra-
ton might appeal with confidence to
the full Judgment of history.
We appeal to the American electo.
rate upon the records of the Repub.
lican party and upon this declaration
of it's principles and purposes. We
are confident that under the leader
ship of the candidates here to be nom
mated our appeal will not be in vain,
that the Republican party will meet
every just expectation of the people
whose servant 1t is, that under its
administration and its laws our nation
will continue to advance, that peace
and prosperity will abide with the
people and that new glory will be add.
ed to the great republic.

We pledge the Republican party to
the enactment of appropriate laws to
give relief from the constantly grow

migration, which is inimical to the
progress and welfare Of the people of

Safety At Sea.
We favor the speedy enactment OF

Republican Accomplishment.
The approaching completion of the
Panama canal, the establishment of a
bureau of mines. the institution of
postal savings banks, the increased
provision made in 1912 for the aged
and infirm soldiers and sailors of the
republic and for their widows, and
the vigorous administration of the
law relating to pure food and drugs,
all mark the successful progress Of
Republican administration and are
additional evidences of its effective
ness.
Economy And Efficiency.
We commend the earnest efforts of
the Republican administration to Sc
cure greater economy and increased
efficiency in the conduct of the gov
eminent business. Extravagant appro-
priations and the creation of unnec-
essary offices are an injustice to the
taxpayers and bad example to the
citizens.
Civic Duty.
We call upon the people to quicken
their interest in public affairs TO con.

ONE MORE STEP TAKEN
IN UPBU|LD|NG OF CITY

At a meeting of citizens of Ell Cen
tro last evening at the Oregon Hotel
steps were taken looking to a more
systematic campaign of publicity and
promotion than has ever been under
taken by the town, arrangements hav-
ing been made to secure the services
OF A. c. Burrell of San Francisco, a
professional publicity man, as secre-
tary of commercial organization.
The fact was recognized that C. w.
Collins as secretary of the Chamber
OF Commerce has done as much as
any man could be expected to do with
out salary, but it was believed the
time had come to put the publicity
work on a bigger scale, by employ
ing an expert to give his entire time
to the work.
Mr.. Burrell was present at the meet
ing, over which c. z. Gage presided,
and gave an outline of his experience
and the work which he believes can
be accomplished here
In the discussion of the proposal
among those who participated were
Burt Irwin, George l.. Melton, Sam w.
Dunaway, E. l.. Ralston. Father
Schmidt, J. E. Davis and r. n. Thorpe.
The Judgment of the meeting was
unanimously in favor of engaging Mr..
BurreH on a proposition he made Of
three months trial.
A committee was appointed, with
full power to act, to confer further
with Mr.. Burrell and with the direct
ors OF the Chamber Of Commerce, with
view to bringing about the support
OF all local interests in the new work,
the members of the committee being
I. 5. Norton, J. Z. Davis, J. G. Delo-
zler, Sam ". Dunaway and E. i. Raj
StOn.
This committee held a brief meet
ing last evening and met again this
morning, taking steps to raise money
and pledges to support the work, in
which task they are meeting with
great success.

Los ANGELES EXCITED
OVER PARALY LYSIS SCARE

The suppression of facts. regarding
the infantile paralysis epidemic in Los
Angeles has had its natural effect in
starting wild eXaggerations abroad and
creating a fear that is not wholly jus
tilted. This fear has now awakened
counter scare in Los Angeles.
The facts, as admitted by the health
authorities of Los Angeles, are tha,
there have been about $50 authentic
cases of infantile paralysis in that city
with As deaths.
1t is true that in a population this
is not heavy mortality, but it is also
true that less is known about this than
any other disease, and the only known
preventive of the spread of the dis,
ease is to hem in those who are af-
fiicted and prevent contact with the
we'll
This is the policy that has been
adopted by the health authorities of
Los Angeles, while the Los Angeles
newspapers have followed the policy
Of remaining silent, until now some of
those newspapers have begun to abuse
the health department for doing its
duty.
Leaders in the protest are the own
ers of moving picture shows, who feel
the loss of patronage of the children.
And yet there will undoubtedly be
those who will consider the preserva-
ton of health and lives of the child.
ren as of more Importance than the
prosperity of the moving picture show
owners.
1t Will undoubtedly be a great mis-
fortune to Los Angeles and to all OF
Southern California to have a sense
less fright created over this disease.
but the remedy lies in the publication
of the facts and not in the abuse Of
those who are doing their duty or
those who are unduly frightened.

IMMIGRATION PROBLEM
OF STATE GIVEN STUDY

lBY UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATIONSl
SACRAMENTO, Aug. Ex-Governor
Johnson has announced the appoint
ment of the following committee to
study the problem of probable immi-
grafton following the completion of
the Panama canal: Robert Watchorn
and Dana Bartlett of Los Angeles;
Simon Lubin of Sacramento; Robert
Lynch, secretary of the California de
velOpment board, and Katharine Eel
ton, secretary of the Associated Chari-
ties of San Francisco. He issued ii
lengthy statement, in which he out
lined probable conditions, urging that
immigrants be not permitted to con
gest in the cities. He demanded that
the committee probe to the deepest
and report with recommendations to
the governor and legislature.
Governor Johnson said in part:
with the canal opening immigration
hitherto reaching the East will be di-
verted here. Thus far we boast of
being free from the dreadful condi.
tons prevailing in New Yorks east
side and elsewhere. If immigrants
are permitted to congest in Califor-
MA cities, which they will unless wise
foresight provides against It, ultimate
ly the conditions of awful poverty pre-
sented by eastern cities will be repro
dCced here. In order that proper pre-
ventive measures be taken | have

missioned will serve gratuitously and
I am grateful to them that they devote

Arizona Takes Action

PHOENIX, Ariz, Aug. 21.-The
state health officer has issued an or
DER that all children under Is years
OF age entering Arizona from Califor.
MIA be placed in quarantine for IS
days. which he gives as the period of
incubation of infantile paralysis All
clothing and personal effects brought
hy any one from California must be
fumlgated on arrival at their destina-
ton. Most Arizona cities have linn
tied quarantine resA lotions of some
sort, but it is now to be made state
wide and notice is given to all Arj-
zOnans in California to bring their
children home at once under the DrO-
visions of the limited quarantine or
take chances on having to keep them
away Indefinitely.
There is not single case Of the
disease in Phoenix. There are unyeri.
fed reports of two suspects in Tucson

Il is with some surprise that it is
learned that there are two or three
property owners in Ell Centre who
are opposed to the voting of bonds at
the election next Monday to make
possible the extension of the water
system to several additions of the
town where extensive building is al
ready in progress.
The absurd plea is put forth that
these bonds will increase the taxes of
the town. already high enough. If
that were a fact the subject might be
worthy of discussion, though it is a
fact that in every community there
must be comparatively heavy taxes
during the period of rapid growth.
But the fact is that the extension
of the water system will tend to de-
crease the tax rate. Every new house
that goes up furnishes a customer
to the city for domestic water, and
this revenue will be much greater
than the interest on the investment
in new pipes

TO SIGN PANAMA BILL

IBY UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATIONS !
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-It is
learned today that President Taft will
not veto the Panama canal bill, al
though he does not approve of it. He
thinks congress should make plain
that rhe bill is not intended to re-
peal the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. He
will sign it, but probably will send to
congress a message indicating his OBJ
jections. He decided to sign when he
learned that the house would refuse
10 accept his proposal to pass an
amendment authorizing foreign ma
tions TO appeal to the supreme court
from the free tolls provision.

PANIC IN MANAGUA

SAN JUAN DEL SUR, Nicaragua,

IMPERATIVE NEED EXISTS NOW
FOR EXTENDED WATER SERVICE

But. aside from this. the extension
of the water service adds to the as
sessed valuation of the lots which are
tC be served with water, and this in
crease in valuations will alone more
than pay the interest on the increase
in bonded Indebtedness.
Every community at times faces the
question whether it shall go forward
or backward, and that is the issue
that is presented to Ell Centro in this
election Either it must go forward
by providing water for the additions
to the city where scores of families
are seeking to make homes, or by
failure TO make possible the growth
of the town, it must go backward.
The spirit of progress is not dead
in Ell Centre. The town more than
ever is crowding TO the front, and
there is no danger that the people
will fall backward into the mossback
condition which has always preceded
period of decay.
