WATER DIRECTORS
BACK FROM TRIPS

Representative J. Stanley Brown re-
turned this morning from Yosemite
where he attended the grand lodge of
the Knights Of Pythias. Mr.. Brown
states that the trip was a most de-
lightful one. Fears that the weather
would be too cold proved groundlcss
and the scenery was more impressive
and beautiful than he has ever noted
there before.
Mr.. Brown is expected to be the
grand chancellor of the state at the
next meeting. He is popular with
his brethren throughout the state and
takes a keen interest in Pythian at
fairs.
Mark Rose came in from the other
direction having been in Old Mexico
looking over the water system. With
the Colorado river running 1000 feet
for several days there will be a SER
ious condition though not necessarily
one that will cause any breaks and it
was for the purpose of looking over
the levees and work that Messrs. Rose
and Nickerson went to Old Mexico
They are apparently satisfied with
the situation.

AUSTRALIAN TO
STUDY IMPERIAL
VALLEY METHODS

c. f. Finley of the University Of
Sydney, Australia. has been in I'M
perial Valley for the past three months
making a study of irrigation and other
agrlculturay matters as handled in the
valley Nh. Finley says that in many
respects h4 finds there is something
to learn in.California such as our ire
mcndouS lead III power development
but that when 1t comes to other mat
ters such as dairying he believes his
native country is ahead of us. There
is, however, Il decided difference in
the methods of dairying there and
here and in the conditions. In Aus
tralia the dairyman has a large range
for his cattle, and their butter fat
production is claimed to be superior.
in fact Mr.. Finley says that he be-
lleVes that as soon as his people have
recovered from the effects of the war,
they will be found in competition with
our own dairymen in this country.
As an answer to his argument how
ever it is not believed that the Aus
tralians develop their cattle to the
high breeding point that is shown
here, that they do not cut out for beef
their COWS showing a low percentage
of production. Mr.. Finley says that
they do not have to do the intensive
feeding in Australian that is done in
Imperial Valley. He admits that they
do not work the use of byproducts to
the high degree of perfection that is
the rule here.
During his stay in California he has
been at the University at Berkeley
for some time. also spent some time
at the state farm at Davis but has
been here for the largest part of his
stay in the United States. He leaves
here tomorrow or next day for the
East stopping in Arizona on way. His
government sent him to make the
study.

HYDE'S STORY
De MED BY
EVIDENCE:
Chief Proves He Was In
San Diego When Former
Deputy Testified He Paid
Over Bribery Money to
Superior.

With arguments by opposing sides
concluded shortly after noon today,
the case of the people VS.. c. f. Hill,
former police chief of Ell Centre,
charged with receiving and solicit
ing brides went to the jury.
Former Chief C. E. Hill yesterday
afternoon took the stand in his owr
defense and sprang big surprise
when he conclusively proved that he
was enroute to San Diego at the exact
time when his former deputy was sup
posed to have been paying over the
bride money.
Supported by Capt. Deyo and other
reputable witnesses, it was generally
conceded that Hyde's testimony would
come to naugh as this vital point
which Hyde said so positively he re-
membered has been proved false. MIR.
Hill was enroute to San Diego to tes-
tify at a military trial and produced
the affidavit of military authorities
that he was there.
LETTER INTRODUCED
The one big piece of damaging tes-
timony against Mr. Hill and the main
feature is believed to be the letter of
recommendation which he gave Hyde
after he had discharged him for &C
cepting brides. This letter on cross
examination was introduced as evil
dcncc by the state and recommended
Hyde to any police force in the South
west. On the stand Mr.. Hill identified
this letter and admitted having writ
ten it. He was not asked to explain
why he had written it.
of tba CT
kind yesterday afternoon testified as
to his reputation and affidavits from
Missouri, his old home, told Of the
excellent reputation he bore there.
From his testimony it developed that
he had fired Hyde within Is hours
after the first hint Of graft on Hyde's
part had been brought to his atten-
ton. He testified he first heard Of
it at 5 O'Clock one afternoon, he heard
about it again that night at 8 o'clock
and fired Hyde the first thing the next
morning.
Hill was placed on the stand short
y after noon recess and did not COM
plcte his testimony until after 5
o'clock He denied receiving any
money for protecting vice, told of
learning of Hyde's receiving money,
and said he had discharged Hyde be-
cause he was criminal and mtrust-
worthy.
GOT NO SATISFACTION"
AT this stage he was asked why he
did not go to the district attorneys
office and swear out a complaint lie
testified hat he had been to the dis
riot attorneys office half dozen
times during his tenure of office about
different matters and had never been
able to get any satisfaction"
This brought to the surface for the
first time the bitter feeling which 1t
has been known was one of the deep
lying elements in the trial. When
Hill testified that he had never been
able to secure any Satisfaction Dis

1--WE cannot see any permanent decline
in sight for the coming fall season, as
the manufacturers are now taking fall
orders at greatly advanced prices.
"There will be merchants who, on
account Of forced liquidation, must sell
at Il sacrifice, but permanent declines
must first come from the manufac-
tuners. This so-called price slashing
movement now being given so much
publicity is neither spasmodic or I'M
usual. The same thing has occurred
each season as far back as we can re-

publicity now as a part of the pro-
paganda in combating the high cost
of living. 1t is good stuff, and in
view of the present financial outlook,
is timely; and if persisted in should
have very beneficial effect.
Last year at this time We had
big sale at greatly reduced prices;
but as we have been selling merchan-
disc the last season in many instances
for less than replacement value, we
have no speculative values to adjust.
