HUGE SUM
ASSURED
FARMERS.

The consolidation of the mutual wat
er companies of the valley with the lr-
rigation district, is considered by many
to mean more to the Imperial Valley
than any event of the last ten years.
Aside from the admitted numerous ad-
vantages of consolidating the water
companies, it means, that within about
the next six months, the hinge sum of
five million dollars will be placed at
the disposal of the farmers of the val
ley.
This money, to be raised by the sale
of bonds, viii he turned over to the
farmers in cancellation o. thei~ wafer
stock, except where the stock is held
as collateral for farm loans. in these
instances it viii be turned over to the
collateral holders. However, it is be
lieved that a majority of these cola
teral holders will allow the money to
be used by the farmers, as their only
interest in holding the water stock, was
to see that the farms were not i'm
paired by lack Of water and under the
new arrangement each farm will be as
sured sufficient water and turning the
money back to the farmers will not i'm
pair the security.
This huge sum of money can mean
the salvation of the Imperial Valley OF
it can mean its curse. 1t all depends
on how it is used. If it is used 10
build up the land values; to fertilize
the run down farms; to. buy better
stock; to build better equipment, in
cluding homes, barns, tool-houses and
sheds; then the light of prosperity will
shine upon the whole valley and the
new era of advancement and progress
will begin.
IF it is used on speculative crops
only that further run down the land ;
to buy luxuries in preference to usefu
things; or in useless experiments; then
it will prove "A curse. Not only resi-
dents, but outsiders will loose faith il

This is a problem which is up to each

Never mind all the details; they are too
great to do justice to in a S. ort article;
but note the results:
They have put US at peace with the
world, with a reduction in armament,
and prospect of settling our difficulties
in conference instead of in war.
They have saved hundreds Of thousands
of dollars in taxes to the American peo-
pie, an average of $40 a wear to each
family.
They have cut expenses and put the
government on business basis.
They have arranged to care for the eX-
soldier and deal him and his dependents
one million dollars day from the pockets
OF Uncle Sam.
They have saved the farmer from rum
and given him hope, and fair prospect
such as he has never known before
They have started movements to build

The Aeromarine double daily 90 minute
flying boat service between Cleveland and
Detroit was officially closed on the 18th
of September-after.a a period of operations
which commenced on July 18th.
With two eleven-passenger enclosed
cabin Aeromarine flying cruisers making
two flights daily between the lake cities
total number of 1889 passengers were
carried-222 crossings Of Lake Erie were
accomplished-28 charter parties flown to
points on Lake Erie, Lake St Claire and
Lake Huron and "a sightseeing flights
made over Cleveland and Detroit. In ad-
dItion to the 1889 passengers, 2574 pounds
of freight were carried, including a Ford
Model ct" roadster, several shipments of
newspapers and miscellaneous bags, suit
cases and golf bags.
There was large increase in the sec nd
months operations over the first-in the
period commencing July 18th and ending
August 18th, 874 passengers were carried
$40 pounds of freight. Forty-nine per-
cent of the travellers during this period
were women.
In the second month of operations,
from August 18th to the close, September
18th, 1865 passengers were carried and
725 pounds of freight. Thirty two per-
cent of the travellers were women-the
increase in percentage of male travellers
in the second month was due to the fact
that business men had realized the value
of the service and were patronizing it
more than they had during the initial
month.
Throughout the season there were no
forced landings; no mishaps of any kind
and the boats left on schedule time.
An interesting comparison OF The Euro
pean Performance as compared to this
Anne. loan record was made today by c.
r. Redden, president of the Aeromarine
Airways Inc.
at is interesting to note that notwith-
standing the fact that the European Air
Transport Companies received govern
ment subsidy of twenty to thirty percent,
we have without any subsidies and with
out active government support made as
much headway toward financial success
as have the European companies.
"From the standpoint of the safety of
passengers we have surpassed all foreign
records. And in the matter of equip
ment, the luxurious enclosed cabin lying
boats, which we operate, surpass the
European equipment in every particular.

First Woman Senator Favors
Protective Tariff

Governor Hardwick of Georgia has sp.
pointed Mrs. w. H. FELTON, as United
States Senator to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of the late Senator Watson
OF that state. The appointment is to be
IN effect until a new Senator shall have
been elected at the coming November
election and shall have qualified AS
Congress is not now in session and will
not be until after the election il is possible
tnat Mrs. FELTON, may not be sworn in s
Senator. However, it has been proposed
that the Senator to be elected shall not
take his seat until after Mrs. FELTON, has
qualified
The appointment was made as a recog-
milton of the character and services Of
Mrs FELTON,, rather than with any idea Of
her serving. She has for years been one
OF the most prominent women in Georgia
and her appointment is quite as much an
honor to the state as to her. AS she is
eighty-seven years of age she will not be
candidate at the coming election, fact
most unfortunate for the state.
We do not know with what political
party Mrs. FELTON, has been affiliated, but
we do know that her policies on national
questions are such that we could give her
our hearty support if given the oppor-
tunity. She is "strong for the Monroe
Doctrine" and opposed to the League of
Nations. This is what she has to say on
the subject of the Protective Tariff:
u am for Protective Tariff. The
United States is big family with lots of
units. Different industries make up these
units. It's the business of Uncle Sam,
like good father, to look out for these
units who make up our family. Here in
the South, for instance, our cotton in
dustry has been under the domination of
Liverpool too long.
al believe in working wage for every
American, and l don't believe that we
should have to compete with the pauper
wage scale of Europe. Uncle Joe Cannon
and myself stand together on that"
We hope that the state of Georgia will
elect on November 7th a man with as
sound views on economic and other ma
tional questions as those held by the first
woman either appointed or elected as
