FOURTH STREET
WILL BE PAVED

The next street to be improved in
the city will be Fourth street from
State to the ely limits south, is the
statement of President John Norton
of the board of city trustees. M. w.
Conkling asking in an informal way
to suggest means of starting the paw
ing on that street, Mr.. Norton as
suring him that as soon as the resi-
dents of that section requested the
improvement the city would be pleased
to order the work done.
A large amount of the traffic to
Calexico, the alfalfa mill and other
places towards the south passes over
Fourth street, necessitating some at
tention to this highway in the belief
of Attorney Conkling. The bitumin-
Gus covering on Fifth street north
of Broadway to Commercial street is
about completed, that street to be
turned over for traffic in a few days.

HABEAS CORPUS
HEARING PECINA
CASE THURSDAY

An application for writ of ha-
beas corpus was filed this morning
by Attorney Joseph F. Seymour, Jr.,
in which it is claimed that T. Meza
Salinas and A. M. Pecina, former
Mexican officials, are being Illegally,
unjustly and irregularly confined in
the county Jail, Judge Franklin J.
Cole announcing that hearing would
be given on the petition Thursday
morning at 10 o'clock.
The main contentious raised in the
third of a series of habeas corpus
proceedings are that the alleged COM
mitments were not signed by the COM
miting magistrate, City Recorder r.
L. Glasby of Calexico; that the COM
mitment on the recorders docket does
not read the same as that on the al
legged commitment given Sheriff Mob
ley Meadows; that Salinas and Pc
Gina were in the county Jail on Feb
ruary 3 when the alleged violation
of the suspended sentence is said to
have occurred; that they We're never
re%rrestd and have never been in
formed of violation of probation,
and further, that they have been con-
tinuously in Jail since the 28th of
January and therefore were not in a
position to commit the acts alleged
in the trial and commitment.
Judge z. B. West may hear the
application for the writ in the event
that Judge Cole has a case before
him. Attorney Seymour, if defeated.
will apply for writ in the district
court of appeals in Los Angeles. In
the meantime Salinas and Pecina re-
main in Jail, not having been sent out
on the county chain gang for the rea-
son that they were needed in connec-
tion with legal proceedings. However,
it is stated that if they fail in the
petition for habeas corpus rights they
will be used in pulling weeds along
the county bitches and at other light
work on the roads.

the 10000 bonus vote offer yester-
day. Miss Moore and Miss Hallam
are now eliminated from competition
for this daily bonus offer and all are
curious to see who will prove the
winners for today and tomorrow.
Prize Hup Exhibited.
The $1,275 prize Hupmobile which
will be given away as capital prize in
the contest Saturday night has been
exhibited in front of the Press office
every day since Saturday morning,
and is almost always surrounded by
a crowd of people who are interest
ed in the campaigns of one or other
of the candidates most likely to win
the machine Saturday night.
Several have expressed regret over
the fact that they did not enter the
contest and make an effort to win that
hansome prize. AS the entry lists
closed more than week ago, every
one recognizes that the big prize will
be won by one of the candidates who
have made serious efforts during the
few. weeks the campaign has beer
on.
People all recognize now that al
the most active contestants are 60
ing to win very handsome prizes, and
the scores have already mounted Sc
high that long ago it became clear
that it would be practically impos.
sible for an inactive contestant to wir
by the use of personal funds, as many
claimed would be done during tht
early stages of the contest. 1t would
take more money to attain the score
now hel by the leader than anyone
wocld care to risk on the last night
and there are still several days ir

numbers have been received, while

and even five years in advance.

Mr.. Mckinney is hopeful for the

and hereafter the party will be, what
it was for many years, party of
progressive ideals.
Regarding the valley and the city,
Mr.. Mckinney spoke in high praise,

a person from an old community to

Washington, March 18.-Bitter de-
nunciation of President Wilson's ac-
ton on canal tolls was voiced today
in the senate by Jones of Washing
ton, who said the repeal message was
"not only remarkable for lack of
facts, dearth of reasons and the sub
lime assurance of the schoolmaster,
but in the conclusion which asks for
repeal in support of the foreign pol
icy." He flatly denied that the Hay

The above authorization is so in
definite that it is uncertain what will
result. Twice soldiers have been
sent to Calexico and twice they have

withdrawal is supposed to be that the
officers find greater social privileges
at the army posts than at the border,
where life has been rather. slow.
