SOME WANT MORE,
SOME LESS WATER
Irrigation Board Receives
Two Delegations -
With Compliments

While a delegation of farmers
from the Alamo heading section
pleaded with the irrigation board
this morning for more water, an
other delegation sat in the room
waiting its turn to request that
some of the surplus water be shut
off from the territory along the Sal
ton Sea between the Alamo and
New rivers.
The people from the Hemlock
sluiceway stated that unless more
water is provided 10000 to 10000
acres will suffer. They were prom
ised that water would be furnished.
According to the north end del
egation, too much water for the
good Of the community has come i'll
from both rivers, some of the land
being completely inundated. This
proposition will be taken up by the
board this afternoon.

MEXICAN IS
SHOT DEAD
.OVERWOMAN.
Vicent ROjO Hunted for
Murder of Rosario.
Last Night
WITNESS is HELD
MagellOn Says Murderer
Fired Six Shots
Into Victim

Agapito Magallon, Mexican, 81
years old, is held In the county Jail
as n material witness and the
sheriff's office is today searching
for Vincente RojG, wanted for the
alleged murder of Mexican known
as, Rosario at q Mexican camp sew
eral miles west Of Calipatria about
clock last night.
According to the story told to A.
b. Robbins, criminal investigator.
for the district attorney 5 office, fy
Magallon, at the county jail this
morning, he and Rojo have been
working on q ranch east of Calipat-
ria for some time. Yesterday after
noon Rojo asked him if he wo,ld
drive him over to see some friends
Of his. Magallon consented and the
two left Calipatria about 4 o clock,
arriving at the camp shortly after
ward. The two men had dinner at
the camp, at which Rosario was
present, also several other Mexicans
including three or four women.
After dinner Rojo told Rosario
he wished to see him outside. Ma
gallon claims that the two men
walked about 100 yards away from
small house at the camp and there
Rojo drew revolver, shooting Ros-
ario six times. He then walked
back to MagallOn's ear and ordered
the latter to drive him into Cali
ratria.
Roio Leaves Car
As he still had the gun in his
hand, Magallon consented and start
ed back for Calipatria. In crossing
over the railroad tracks in that
town, on the way to the Mexican
settlement on the east side, Magal-
Ion says his ear stalled. Rojo there
upon left the ear and went toward
the Mexican settlement.
Information regarding the shoot
ing was brought into Calipatria and
the sheriff's office notified. Mean
while Magallon had been picked up
by the Calipatria police and was
turned over to Sheriff Gillett and
Deputy Sheriffs Underwood and
Oswalt. AS it was dark by this
time, the officers were forced to
give up the search and returned to
FL Centre with Magallon.
The later asserted this morning
that he knew nothing regarding
Rojo's plans when he left Calipatria
with him. He believed Rojo and
Rosario had had some trouble over
a woman and that this was the SUBJ
iect of their conversation when
they walked away from the house.
He claimed to have heard no argu.
ments and that he was surprised
when he heard the shots.
An inquest will be held in Braw-
ley tomorrow afternoon

According to telegram received

the telegram evidently clinches the
case. The head was'examined by
the leading bacteriologists in the
state and their decision cannot be
questioned.

'There have been q few object
ions to the order that all dogs must
be muzzled or chained" said Chief
of Police Barker, "and l hope this
telegram will enable people to un-
derstand that we have no choice in
the matter. The mllZzles are uncOm.

we have accounted for all dogs that
may have been bitten by the dog
killed last week. However, if any

When informed of the results Of
the examination Of the dogs head,
DR.. L.. c. House, county health Of
ficer, and DR.. r. A. Burger, FL Cen.
tro health officer, reiterated their
statements OF last week that any
persons bitten by dog, whether
known to be afflicted with rabies
or not, should Immediately consult
a physician and make arrangements
for taking the Pasteur treatment.
They again endorsed Chief Barker 3
order for muzzling dogs and stated
it is the only way to protect the
people Of FL Centre. The question
of the dogs comfort cannot be con
sidered, according to physicians, in
the face Of the report from Berke-
ley. They agree that the muzzles
may be uncomfortable for the dogs
but they are not cruel, nor do they
cause them any suffering.

The figures given include the
