WILL THESE BE THE WINNERS?

The race for the prizes offered by
the Press is growing exciting as the
end approaches, for there are scarce
ly more than two weeks left now to
attain winning scores and all ambi-
tious candidates are now putting forth
extra efforts. AS was announced at
the outset of he campaign, popularity,
i'm the sense of having large circle
of friends, is the most important ele-
ment to success in this contest, al
though of course personal effort is
also necessary.
Approaching Their Limits.
AS most candidates gain most of
their support from friends and ac-
uuaintances, candidates who have
stood highest in the scores so far are
now experiencing greater difficulty in
retaining their positions and in Sc
curing additional subscriptions, for
they have called on nearly all their
friends and are now rather at loss
as to where to seek more subscrip-
tions. A few of the others who did
not do as we'll for while are now
catching up, and still have friends
who are likely to subscribe.
45,OGO Votes Volunteered.

FED THE EVIDENCE
TO SEWER MICROBES

Deep gloom surrounded the Jail this
morning. Bill Howard's evidence was
destroyed. Two cases of whiskey and
80 bottles of beer went sailing down
the sewer toward the municipal farm.
Howard was pinched January 16 for
conducting a blind tiger near Seeley,
Officers Applestill and Kemp and
Deputy District Attorney H. F. Welch
making the arrest. A large quantity
of liquor was confscated, Howard
getting the maximum sentence at the
hands of Justice Mayfeld-six months
and $500.
The liquor was stored in the sher-
iff's office and attracted much atten-
tion from those who were inclined
to imbibe. Daily visits were made to
the prison to take look at the cases,
but without warning this morning dep
uties proceeded to empty all of the
bonded whiskey and lager beer down
the sewer and nothing remains but
empty bottles, grim, mute specters of

to show the permanency of the water
rights and the absolute surety of
sufficient supply to take care of all
the land under ditch. AS to the am
pie supply of water he said:
GAS to those lands located between
Brawley and Imperial Junction, which
are now being brought under ditch by
the new high line canal, let me state
positively that any one should have
no uneasiness whatsoever as to the
supply of water and the permanency
thereof"
Colonel Holabird predicted that as
soon as the last land that is under
irrigation is taken up great move
ment will take place throughout the
valley of cutting the large blocks of
lands into smaller units and the en-
ployment of more intensive farming
methods will be observed. so that the
maximum production will result.
Mr.. Brown, who announced the open
ing of INLAND, said INLAND is located
at Imperial Junction and has been
planned and plotted to meet all the
needs and requirements of a modern
city.
Special trains will leave Los !Ange-
les Friday, March Is, at 10 p. m.
from the Arcade depot and will take
the excursionists over the entire val
lev. the next morning returning to
INLAND in time for the barbecue and
formal opening.

structions to notify her Of the volun-

called on the contest manager to sub
scribe for contestants in this way, but
$4,000 votes all in one lump are about
as rare as they are welcome.

Entry lists will close Saturday night
at O'clock and after that hour no

EXCURSION TO INLAND COMING SOON

Los Angeles, March 4.-Several
hundred persons are planning to make
the excursion to INLAND, the new town
in the Imperial Valley, on it's open
ing on March IA. This was announced
at the large gathering of those in
terested in Imperial Valley held at
6O9-611 South Spring street. The hall
was crowded with members and
friends of the Imperial Valley Farm
Land Association, which controls the
$4,000 acres of land in the north end
of Imperial Valley recently acquired
from the Southern Pacific railroad.
Luther G. Brown, secretary of the
association, presided. He announced
that the new high line canal which
will irrigate the $4,000 acres of land
of the company will be ready within
sixty days.
Colonel w. H. Holabird, receiver of
the California Development Company,
declared that water in the valley is
cheap and that there will be plenty
of water for everything. He said:
"Under the present system there is
now under irrigation about 100000
acres of land in the Imperial valley,
but with the opening of the new high
line canal at least 100000 acres will
be brought under irrigation. 1t is this
new high line canal that will serve
the $4,000 acres of land now being
nut on the market by the associa-
tion."
Colonel Holabird went into details

STOLE MERCHANDISE
AND SKIPPED OUT

City Marshal J. L. Delaney's desk
this morning looked like a depart
ment store. Four pairs of ladies'
shoes, all different makes and colors;
laces, ribbons, taffeta, satin and SUM-
dry other articles taken from two
Mexicans who were alleged to have
robbed Stevenson Bros store and the
New York store in Imperial.
Representatives from both firms ap-
peared at the city hall yesterday and
positively identified the stolen goods.
The two Mexicans were given their
liberty, as it was discovered that
third party, the one who had done the
shoplifting, had escaped across the
line, merely having disposed of the
merchandise to the men captured.
Marshal Delaney is of the opinion
that there is an organized gang of
shoplifters in the valley and that it
will only be a matter of time until
they are rounded up. They have
been working so secretly and success
fully that many of the merchants are
just realizing that robberies have been
going on for some weeks. The list
of recovered goods tends to show, the
authorities believe, that it has not
been the work of night providers, as
most of the articles are for women,
leading the officers to conclude that
some feminine shoplifter is attached
to the gang. The articles in the pos
session Of the city marshal will be re-
turned to the different stores today.

NEW RUSSELL BLOCK
READY APRIL 1ST

The new $4,000 hotel on the corner
of Fifth and State streets will be
ready for occupancy by April l was
announced today by Russell Brothers
of San Diego, the owners and contrac-
tors, and also that the hotel had been
leased to Henry Mating, who formerly
after the Fourth street rooming house.
1t is the second three-story building
to be erected in the city, the only other
one being the Oregon hotel. The new
structure is 52x77 feet, brick and COR
crete entering largely into the con-
struction. On the lower floor will he
found the hotel Office and lobby in
room 20x65. Opposite this space is
found store room of the same dimen-
sions. Several concerns have attempt
ed to lease this room but the owners
stated that they had not been entirely
satisfied as yet concerning the class
of business they wish there.
There are 36 sleeping rooms on the
second and third floors. Each room
has light from two sides, air shafts
making this possible. The rooms are
commodious and well finished. All of
the plastering, electric wiring and
plumbing has been done: wood finishers
now having the work in hand. State
street and Fifth street sides are en-
bellished with arcade fronts. Large
plate glass windows front on Fifth
street.
Mr.. Russell explained yesterday that
the building would have been complet-
ed earlier had it not been for the dis
astrous floods which played havoc
with freight traffic, supplies having
been delayed. The building was start
ed on January and is considered one
of the most substantial structures in
Ell Centre.
Imperial Valley press., 1914-03-04
ARMSTEAD BUILDING
NEARLY COMPLETED

The Armstead building on the cor
ner of Fifth and Broadway is fast
assuming completion. The brick walls
have been constructed and the pillars
for the arcade front have been in
stalled. Mr.. Armstead experienced no
difficulty whatever in leasing all of
the rooms in the adjoining building,
which fact induced him to proceed with
the new structure. Contractor J. L.
Travers was authorized to construct
the first floor so that additional floors
could be arranged for the future, the
intention being to have sleeping rooms
on the upper floors.

Taking a husbands name is a Gus
tom that will probably be outgrown
some day, because we have outgrown
the conditions that created this Gus
tom. 1t no longer, has it's basis in
necessity. There is no more reason
for labelling a married woman than
there is for labelling married man.
1t is just custom"
In these words of endorsement of
the widespread campaign on the part
of married women to retain their mai
den names. DR.. Marie Jenney Howe
has voiced the sentiment of Fola Le-
Toilette, expressed at the recent fem
mist mass meeting.
DR.. Marie Howe is the wife of DR..

ENGLISHMAN HELD,
ON GRAFT CHARGE
Omitted Press Day Service)

London, March 4.-The news that
an Englishman, Andrew M. Pooley,
former head of Reuters News Agency
in Japan, was arrested today in con-
nection with the navy graft scandal
and as result his wife had attempted
suicide has reached here by mail. 1t
is believed that the censor prevented
sending any news by wire. The charge
against Pooley is that documents i'm
plicating high naval officials fell into
his hands and that instead of surren-
dering them to the authorities, he
sold them to persons concerned for
$125,O00. Pooley was still a prisoner
when the letter was mailed. The writ
er declared that Pooley was innocent
and that he accused the officials of
making him scapegoat to divert at
tentiOn.

Faris Must Hang.
Omitted Press Day Service)

Sacramento. March 4.-The COVER
nor announced today that he will not
save from the gallows Ralph Faris,
youthful Southern Pacific bandit, who
held up train, killing N. P. Mon
tague, three months ago. The an
nouncement answered a query made
upon the governors receipt of a tele-
gram from Montague's widow, praying
for leniency.
The governor said: "The telegram
will in no way affect my determina-
tion that l have only one province
and must determine whether facts ex-
ist warrahting clemency. l have no
right to arbitrarily set aside the stat
utes of the state. 1t is my sworn
duty to uphold the law. Good people
who ask me to abrogate the law l
am sworn to enforce might with equal
propriety ask the courts to disregard
the law, demanding that judges re-
fuse to impose the sentence Of DEATH"

1t is among the possibilities that
the Southern Pacific Company will in
a few days permit the California De-

trict directors yesterday passed the

sharp reply to charges made in Lon
don by John T. Lenfesty of Chicago
to the effect that Roosevelt had de-
manded $4,000 for delivering a short

was feted at heavy government ex-
pense. Abbott characterized Lenfes-

licious, gossip"
The facts in the case, according to
Abbott, are as follows:
Roosevelt visited South America in
response to an invitation to deliver
lectures before the Musso Social So
ciety of Buenos Ayres. He was Of
fered in advance an honorarium such
as is customary to offer lecturers ap-
