ium, with ample accommodations for

ventions, will be another feature Of per-
manent building during the time before
the fair opens in January, 1915. The
site selected for the stadium was large
ly prepared by the hand Of nature. as
! the hillsides surrounding its center
/ form a natural amphitheater in them
selves, and when the ground has been
properly graded and the building COM
! pleted San Diego will have at once one
. Of the largest stadiums in the world
and certainly the most beautiful. 1t
will be located in the midst, Of a beau
tiful park, where both landscape and
informal gardening will assist greatly
in its establishment.

1t is gratifying to know the move

between big business interests and
crooked politics must cease. The peo :
pie cannot rule until they obtain sue
