w. II. Holabird has an appointment
to see the chief Of the Latin-American
bureau Of the state department al
Washington. He probably will be ac-
companied by Senator Works and Con-
gresSman kettner. Mr.. Holabird wishes
to talk over with the representative
Of the state department the question
regarding the use Of water OF the Col
oradO river under the agreement be-
tween the Imperial valley corporation
and the Mexican company, and perhaps
other matters.
The secretary Of the interior said
he did not feel that it would be proper
for him to give out any statement or
interview now regarding the use of the
water OF the Colorado river. He in
timated that having irrigation enter
prises dependent on this river it was
of much Importance that the questions
affecting the use Of water be settled
amicably. He is proceeding carefully
and is anxious that all rights shall
be safeguarded and that no proper en-
terprises shall be obstructed. Hola-

that the piston displacement be under

freak entries and narrowed the field.

With the racers slreaking past at a

on the lookout for accidents and pos

The brick track is so perfect and
so scientifically banked at the turns
that danger from accidents is mini

crews have been practicing making re-

A new feature appreciated by the
public was the color scheme used on
the cars. In addition to numbers eacn

1t was fitting observance of Me
mortal day, for in the quietude of their
home lives and in the personal visi-
tations to the graves of the departed
friends the people Of Ell Centre gener-
ally paid loving tribute to the dead.
There was no organized ceremony
provided. There was no Oratory and
no martial music. The former will
be heard at the several churches sun
day and the latter may possibly have
departed from the land until some new
crisis shall awaken a new outburst Of
patriotism.
But at the cemetery a large flag at
half mast and numerous flags and many
bouquets on the graves told the story
of remembrances.
The decorations We're not confined
to the graves Of soldiers. nor to the
people Of either section, for those Of
the North and South alike who have
friends sleeping in Evergreen cemetery

In the valley there are few who par
ticipated in the great struggle OF fifty
years ago, and year by year their num-
Der is decreasing, while to their chill
.dren. and their grandchildren there is
softening of the sorrows of the great
conflict and an acceptance of the doc
trine of universal respect for those who
fought upon either side and of honor
for both the Blue and the Gray.
Through respect for the day the city
trustees had passed an ordinance pro-
viding against any sports on Memorial
day, and this ordinance was fully OBJ
served. All business houses We're
