BULLETIN.

Immigration Inspector Mus
grave this morning received no
tification that the order closing
the line to all but those bearing
passports would not be in full ef-
feet until December l. This Or
der was made to give Irrigation
District officials, railroad men
and others time to get passports
from Washington. More than zoe
persons, mostly women, came
across the border today and did
not return.
Hundreds OF persons were turned
back from the border line at the Ca
lexico custom house today, as d re-
suit of strict orders received by In
spector Musgrove barring all citizens
except Mexican residents and those
bearing passports.
No person Of any nationality may
cross the border line between the
United States and Mexico, or, for that
matter, pass through any other port
of entry, without showing passports
from his country. The order is to be
enforced strictly and to the letter.
No exemptions are provided for in
any case.
immigration Inspector in Charge
Musgrave of the Calexico office said
that, in accordance with the latest
advices he had received, he would be
allowed no discretion whatever. The
best known business men, employees Of
individuals or companies having in
terests across the line, even members
Of train crews on the Inter- Califor-
MIA railroad who live in Calexico and
others whose business usually takes
them across the border many times in
the course of a day, are all on an equal
footing.
The order was sent out from Wash
irgton, on the joint authority of the
Department of State and Department
of Labor. Local inspectors are re-
quired to inquire closely into the bus
less of every person, and to see pass
ports regularly signed and accompa-
MED by photographs and other proofs
of Identification. The rule will work
both ways, for no Mexican or citizen
of any country may enter the United
States without having and exhibiting
proper passports.
"a passport from the United States
government" said Inspector Mus
grave, may be obtained only upon
application to the Department of State,
made through clerk of the federal
court. The nearest federal court in
regular session to this section is in
Los Angeles, and would advise those
who have legitimate reason for want
ing to cross the border to make appli-

(By AssOciite1 Press)
Livingston, Mont, Nov. 15.-Na-
tional army men in the environments
of the western coast may be served
with venison now and then, if res
olution passed recently by the local
chamber of commerce is needed by De-
partment of the Interior officials, to
whom it was sent.
The chamber urged the slaughter of
several thousand of the 10000 elk
now in Yellowstone National Park
and the shipment of their carcasses
to the western cantonments. Not only
would the food problem be relieved
somewhat, it was suggested. but the
thousands of elk would be prevented
from starving to death, as it is de-
clared they do each winter.

THREE QUESTIONS
ON BOOZE BALLOT
IMPERIAL CITL CALLS ELECTION
FOR JANUARY 8.
WARM MEETING HELD
ALL FACTIONS REPRESENTED
AT TRUSTEES SESSION.
Believed That the Three Propositions
Have Satisfied All Classes and That
Moot Question Will Be Settled.

At torrid session of the city trus-
tees Of Imperial in that town last
night the city fathers passed an or
dinance at it's first reading calling an
election for January 8, to decide on
one of three propositions:
l. To license nine saloons, two
wholesale houses and three cafes for
the selling Of liquor.
2.To absolutely prohibit the selling
Of liquor within the city limits except
on physicians prescription, and then
only for medicinal or scientific pur-
poses. s.
3. To adopt an ordinance similar to
the amended Roninger bill, providing
for the closing of saloons. and the Ii.
censing of wholesale liquor houses and
cafes to sell liquor in quantities of not
less than one-fifth of a gallon.
Here, therefore, is real wet, ex-
ira dry and semi-dry conglomeration
Of civic Righteousness, depending a
the way you look at it.
Under the influence of the coming
election, the Imperial registration list
is bulging and waxeth fat. 1t is be-
lieved the record -votes Of 900 will be
cast at the coming election.
The present test case now before
the appellate court will probably be
dropped. 4.

Bodily Housekeeping
(BY SAMUEL HAMILTON, n. D.

The subject Of drinking water with
meals has been misunderstood.
In recent years investigation by means
OF X-rays, the observations Of scientists,
such as Cannon, Grutzner, Psvlov, Fow-
Ter. Hawk, prove that an abundance Of
water taken during digestion is necessary
In good bodily housekeeping. Drink
plenty Of water with each meal. Do not
drink ice-wAter at any time
II your kidneys are sick, or you suffer
with lumbago or rheumatism At times,
pain ia the back or back OF the neck, take
Anuric double strength before meals.
This can be found at any good drug store.
Therefore my advice to Young or old Is,
always drink plenty OF pure water. And
for long life, occasionally take tablets oil
Anuric three or four times a day.
II is simply wonderful how quickly
Apuric acts-much more potent than
hthia. You will find il dissolyes uric
acid as water does sugar.
