Prohibition Measure Passes.

Denver.-Without material change
in the form drawn up by attorneys for
the Anti-Saloon league and reported
favorably by the Temperance commit
tee, the bill fixing penalties for viola
tions of the prohibition amendment
was passed on second reading by the
State Senate. As 1t can be amended
on third and final reading only by
unanimous consent. there is little like
Iihood of additional changes in the
measure being made by tho upper
branch of the Legislature.

YUMA MESA IRRIGATION COMPANY NOW OR GANIZED AND READY TO INSTALL LARGE PUMPING PLANT, INDEPENDENT OF THE YUMA IRRIGATION PROJECT!
Mesa Holdings of the Company Will Be Planted to Oranges and Grape Fruit Not Later than
 November of This Year

Thompson Bros, all citrus fruit grow CTS of Pomona, and our wide-awake fellow townsman, Dr. H. V. Clymer, and the Southwestern Land Company, are also largely interested in mesa lands. All these gentlemen met in Yuma yesterday. They had previous ly banded themselves together for the purpoes of getting water on their land, in which they were joined by Mrs. Ellen Stark, of Florida; MT. Palmer, of Minnesota, and M. A. Nichols, of Mankato, Minn.
 For over year past they have endeavored to get the cooperation of the board of governors of the Yuma Valley Water Users Association, but were unsuccessful. When the matter was laid before Secretary Lane on his recent visit to Yuma, the proposition to pump water from the east main canal to the 400 acres owned by those above named, was laid before Secre- tary Lane, he at once encouraged the idea-in fact, he told them to go ahead and perfect their plans.
 They are here, with their plans per fected, and the contract between them and Secretary Lane is also here, ready for them to sign today. Their charter is here also ready to be filed, which shows the following officers and df- rectors:
 s. c. Wood, president and director.
 Geo. M. Hill, vice-president and di- rector.
 M. Harvey, secretary and director.
 E. D. Vincent, director
 Frank Pierson, director.
 President Wood gave me these facts last night, and during the caurse of OUT long interview, he said:
 Our company will be known as the Yuma Mesa Irrigation Company. We buy the water direct from the Govern ment under the so-called Warren Act, but we buy for our own use only. We can not sell any of the water, using

it only on the cooperative plan.

1t only on the cooperative plan.
 We will at once, tomorrow, l mean, ask for bids from five of the largest pump manufacturing firms in the United States to bid on installing the necessary pumps, and just as soon as the contract is awarded we will begin work. You can say for our company that we propose to have at least large portion of our mesa holdings planted to oranges and grape fruit by not later than November of this year.
 We think that Pomona, California, and it's immediate vicinity the finest orange belt in California; in fact, per sonally, I thought it the finest in the world, until I came here about four years ago, and made careful study of the mesa lands. I can only say now that Pomona is second, while Yuma mesa leads the world! And we intend to demonstrate that fact. We would have been doing this long ago had your water users association not been in such a tangle over their prospec- tive water rights. We had no disposi- tion to waste our money in long and probably useless law suits; therefore, we took the matter up directly with Secretary Lane. We found him emi- nently fair, and the result is that our prospective orange groves will be in full blossom and loaded down with the finest oranges in the world long before the water users settle their differences with Secretary Lane if they persist in going to law about it.
 Personally, and I know I voice the sentiment of my associates, I am de- lighted that we have been able to com plete our plans with the Government I hope to see the day when every one of the mesa homesteaders will be served with water-if not through the Yuma project, then by the method we | are about to put in operation"
 The Examiner bids MT. Vincent thrice welcome to our city,! When he and pr. Clymer can bring such men as Mr. Wood and his associates to our fertile and unsurpassed country they at once deserve the thanks of the entire community. Because MT.
 Vincent has done so we'll in this re spect, and the joy is so much greater he can readily be excused if he does ot undertake to untangle the rotten
 ness of the Yuma project. Leave that

It will be very disappoint- ing to Yumaites, Gilaites and Bardites when 1 tell them that Hon E. D. Vincent is not here for the purpose of assuming the position of man. ager of the Yuma project not at present, at any rate!
 But every man, woman and child in Yuma should shout with joy when 1 tell them the real object of his visit, for it has much, very much, to do with the immediate upbuild- ing of Yuma county; it sure means that the eyes of the world are soon to be turned on Yuma-in a word, it means that THE MESA IS SOON TO BE IRRIGATED!
 Not only that, but it is soon to be demonstrated on a five or six times greater scale than ever before attempted that THE MESA IS THE VERY GREATEST BODY OF CITRUS LAND IN THE WORLD!
 When Mr. Vincent told me late yes terday afternoon upon my return from a trip all over the Yuma valley as far as the Mexican line, that he was here on matters foreign to Yuma prof. ect affairs, I confess I looked upon his statement with skepticism. Last night, however, I learned the object of his visit, and it is this.
