for two years before the cork entire
ball, which was officially adopted last
year, was settled upon as the success
sor OF the old rubber centre ball.
Davis was given marked balls to
try. He batted and threw each kind
and passed judgment without knowing
the material in the different ones. He
recommended or rejected the balls ac-
cordlng to the labels. When he put his
o. *. on mo. A. he didn't know wheth-
er the ball had a cork or rubber centre.
Manager Davis will probably lose his
position of official practical tester, but
he will be retained as an adviser.
The new cork centre ball was not
adopted to increase hitting, as is gen.
orally believed. The cork centre was
used to make the balls last longer. The
ball expands when it Is hit, and a solid
rubber centre expanded so much that
the yarn wrapping was torn. The cork
centre, which is a small piece of cork
surrounded by a quarter of an inch of
rubber, lessons the expansion, but the
expansion from the ball being batted
comes quicker. This makes the cork
centre ball livelier than the rubber cen
tire ball.

CALIFORNIA DELEGATION
RECEIVED At ALBUQUERQUE

ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, Nov. H.
southern California delegation to the
ocean-to-ocean highway convention in
Santa Fe was here, and the mayor
turned the keys Of the city over to the
visitors last evening when the Cali
fornia Limited arrived.
To prove that they were the real
keys and that Albuquerque is on the
job when the oceanic ocean highway
is concerned, Mayor d. K. B. Sellers
himself presented to President John s.
Mitchell of the national association the
freedom Of the city. In an appropriate
speech Mr.. Mitchell accepted the hos
pitality of New Mexico and promised
TO do his share in bringing through this
city the great national highway, which
the convention Monday convenes TO
discuss. With Mayor Sellers were E. c.
Grose and E. A. Vandines.
The delegation from southern Cali
fornia arrived in this city in excellent
spirits and renewed its allegiance TO
the plan for transcontinental high
way with Its western terminus III Los
Angeles. The welcome all along the
line has been most encouraging TO the
men who are planning to begin a ma
tion wide canvass to secure federal aiu
for ocean-to-ocean road. At Bar
stow the train was met by a delega
ton of citizens headed by Mrs. Frances
Hanan, who promised for her section,
although we'll off the proposed road,
all the support Barstow can give the
movement. At the smaller stations the
aid of the countryside was pledged by
committees and leading spirits in the
community and the climax was reached
here last night where everyone is
ready to work for the national high
way.
On board the train the talk gem
orally was of the Importance of the
errand of the delegation. Herbert J..
Baum of Birmingham, Ala, who with
his bride was returning from the Grand
canyon, and Fred T. Gilroy of Winni-
peg, Manitoba, with his bride, were on
No and both of them joined with
the other transcontinent tourists in
wishing the delegation godspeed and
in promising the support of their com
munities for any movement looking to
the eventual connection by means of a
high class highway between the Allan
tie and the Pacific coasts.

GAINS FOR SUFFRAGE

Riverside Press: Since equal suf-
frage carried in four of the five states
which voted on the proposition Tues
day, women have the right to vote IN
the following states: Arizona, Califor-
nia' Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Colo
rado, Wyoming, Utah, Michigan and
Kansas.
That puts every one of the states
west of the Rockies in the advanced
position of granting equal rights IL
men and women, except Nevada, New
Mexico and Montana. The heavy vote
given in favor of equal suffrage in
Kansas and Michigan shows how the
movement is spreading toward the
east. The admitted success of equal
suffrage in California, the most pop1i-
lous state that has tried the expert
ment, has done much to strengthen the
sentiment in favor of the movement
and 1t will not be surprising to find
new states added to the suffrage list
at every election from now on Equal
suffrage leaders are perhaps too opti-
mistic in claiming natl wide suffra @ e
within ten years. but a conservative es-
innate would be that within that period
a majority of the states will have
granted the franchise to women

STEAMSHIP LINES PREPARE
FOR THE CANAL OPENING

LONDON, Nov. 12.-European ship
building concerns are working at the
highest possible pressure and are like
ly to continue for some time to CONF
in view of the possibilities of trade
development by the Panama canal.
A contract for five new steamers was
recently placed with a Belfast ship
builder by the Pacific Steam Naviga-
tion company. while the German lines
engaged in the South American trade
are also adding materially to their
fleets.
The Hamburg American line had on
November l no fewer than 10 large
steamers under construction, including
three $4,000 ton vessels of the impera-
tor class. A $4,000 ton vessel is being
built at the Vulcan yards for the Pana
ma service and the $4,000 ton ships
for the La Plata service. Other YES
sells Of less importance bring the total
now building for the Hamburg-Ameri-
can on the 1st of November up to 270,-
600 tons gross.
The North German Lloyd Steamship
company has given orders recently for
IL steamers, totaline nearly 10000
tons and others are contemplated Al
the beginning OF the month this com
pany had IL vessels building. totaling
Ga, 900 tons.
Other lines are adding considerably
to their fleets. The Hamburg ana
South American line have four steam
ers under construction with a total
tonnage of $4,000, besides those build
ing, at the beginning of the year The
German Australian company has un-
der construction five steamers of 5OOu
tons each, five of $500 tons each and
five of 10000 tons each. Practically all
the latter orders have been given to
German yards.

ENDS BARGAIN DIVORCE

RENO, New, Nov. 12.-Nevada has
elected an anti-divorce legislature and
when the session opens in January an
amendment TO the present lax divorce
measure will be presented, fixing the
period. Of residence at one. year and
possibly containing provision which
will not allow the divorce decree to-
become effective for still another year.
The divorce advocates suffered their
greatest defeat in Reno, the heart of
the divorce center of the state, when
w. D. Jones, the father of the cele-
brated time lock divorce law, was over
whelmingly defeated for state senator.
Jones was given the nomination on
the Democratic ticket without opposi
ton and so well was the divorce or

.uE NATURE OF A BOOM

1t has been the fortune Of the
editor of the Press to know something
of the nature of the booms that have
made southern California. LANDING 6
in Los Angeles when that city had but
$4,000 people, before Pasadena, Long
Beach and score of other towns
now noted, had even names, he has
seen most of southern California built
up on comparative desert lands, and
has had an opportunity TO study the
conditions under which these COM
munities have prospered
Sometimes people condemn booms
but there never was but one short
period in southern California in which
b pom conditions existed which worked
to the bad. That was when the town
lot craze struck southern California
in 1885 to continue two years and
end in disaster. With that single eX-
ception, the boom has brought the de-
velopment of industries to correspond
with the increase In population, and
the growth has been healthy, though
of so rapid a nature as to be called
a boom.
III lulS udN, with VI pcO-
pie hunting homes in new lands,
wherever there are lands that offer
homes there must be a rush of colon
lists, and that rush must produce boom
conditions, and those conditions must
work wholly to the good.
Having in this valley the one land
which holds out the greatest induce
ments 10 homeseekers, it has been alb
solutely certain that the time would
come when the boom would break
upon us.
The Press months ago called atten-
tion TO the premonitions of the boom
then coming. The first evidence of
the boom then was in sight. Today.
as foretold, the boom is upon us. Day
by day from this time on the tide of
immigration and of enthusiasm will
rise. There is no power on earth to
stop it, The thousands of acres in
this valley must take on their newt
able density of population, and the in
dustries of the valley must rise corre-
spondingly.
And just in proportion as the gen.
eral industries of the valley grow. the
towns of the valley must rush to their
destiny. A given number of acres Of
irrigated acres must give a CORE
spending population to the towns. This
is as inevitable as that day and night
shall alternate.
It is this force that is driving Ell
Centre and the other towns of the
valley onward, and it is this law that
makes 1t certain to the Press that
there will be no halting In the wonder
ful development of FL Centro until at
least hfty thousand people are within
the city limits
Imperial Valley press., 1912-11-13
ganization held together that no Re-


ganization held together that no Re-
publican opponent appeared and Jones
had the field to himself until a De-
whiskered farmer from outside of Reno
announced himself as an Independent,
circulated a petition and was placed on
the ticket. His candidacy was consid-
cred a joke. His name is James Gault
and he was called Harry Brush by the
jokesters on account Of his whiskers,
but the farmer plugged along in his
own way until election day and that
evening when the votes were counted
it was found he was elected by a rous-
ing majority and Jones, the idol Of the
divorce colony, who was to lead the
fight against any change in the pres
ent divorce laws in the upper house,
was defeated.
AS the returns came in from the bal
ance of the state 1t was more than evil
dent that the next legislature woulL
be anti-divorce in complexion. When
it meets in January, next year, it will
enact legislation. fixing the period of
residence necessary in Nevada before
starting divorce proceedings at one
year instead of six months.

TNPANsIoN OF BUSINESS

Il The growth of business in Ell
Centre during the last year has been
remarkably great. No better illustra-
ton of this is to be found than in the
advertising columns of the Press.
One year ago yesterday the Press
published 447 inches of advertising and
last night it carried $40, a gain of
nearly 25 per cent.
year ago yesterday the Press was
forced to enlarge 70 an eight page,
six column form. SO soon as the me-
chanical arrangements can be made.
within two or three days, the Press
will appear as an eight page seven
column paper, it being the first time
in the history of the valley that a
paper of this size has been published.
newspaper reflects the status of
affairs in a community, but it is not
made in a day. 1t takes years of
money loss to make a newspaper any
where, and the Press congratulates it
self on the fact that this paper has
grown with the growth of the COM
munity to a point where some approach
can be made to the ideals of the pub
fishers

PURCHASE THE CANALS

The demand for the purchase Of
the supply system for the irrigation Of
the valley is almost universal. and It
cannot be consummated too soon, but
always there must be kept in sight
the one point of avoiding the pur-
chase of litigation.
The Press has reason 70 believe that
there are those who have a program
OF litigation mapped out which has
not yet hardly begun, and unless there
be effected compromises which will
include all possible claimants against
the system, a long series of law suits
must be incurred when the plant is
purchased.
No permanent and lasting settlement
can be effected which does not take
into consideration the judgments
against the California Development
company, the outstanding bonds and
stock and all other liabilities, for the
legal complications are too complex for
the people of the valley 10 undertake
TO fight through the courts.

RECENT GAINS OF
THE SOCIALIST MOVEMENT

Los Angeles Tribune: Almost an
irony of election day was the fact that
the large Socialist gains found the
pr sident's own state leading in the
percentage of growth of Debs' party.
While the socialist gain was 100 per
cent in a good many places, it was
200 per cent in Ohio. The Buckeye
state gave Debs 100000 of his million
votes.
This we speak of as irony, because
Mr.. Taft has had most to say of the
menace" of Socialism, little realizing
that it is the direct outgrowth of the
school of laissez faire politicians and
economists of which the president is
at present the leader. Every vote for
Socialism is a vote of protest and as
such is a strong concentration of Mr..
Taft's administration. Their number
is the more remarkable because there
were so many protests recorded
through the Progressive party.
The Socialists earned in the late
campaign the respect that goes with
considerable numbers. Their candi-
date for governor in Washington, Anna
Maley, carried a county-womap
though she was. A Kansas county was
also carried and there are many legis-
lators in state capitols to offset the
loss of Berger in congress.
Both as a driving force in politics
and a protest against social injustices
the Socialist party is a potent and use
full force. 1t is chiefly the voice Of
intelligent labor and as such should be
needed On the economic field labor
has never been brought together H.
formidable array-the majority are
now as always outside of unions-and
If precedent counts for anything the
Socialist movement will never entire
ly solidify the workers on the political
field, which is the aim of its leaders
Imperial Valley press., 1912-11-13

The sentiment has been expressed by
many persons that the system ought
to be acquired now, If II be possible
to get it without entanglements, even
though the cost may be some more
than it would be after series of
years, because the saving to the farm
ers by putting the system in first class
condition would amount to more than
any probable reduction in cost, and
the Press believes that this doctrine
is correct, providing the cost is not
extravagant.
