\ LETTER ID CONGRESS.
 MAN WALTER NEWTON

Kildall Co.,, to Congressman New ton, says:
 Congressman Walter II. Newton, Washington, D. c.
 Dear Sir:
 Enclosed you will find clipping from the Petersburg Herald dated Sept. 4th, entitled "Alas!la Her ring Being Destroyed"
 The Petersburg editor has this situation sized up right and we think a bill should be passed in Congress as soon as possible that would prohibit the manufacture of fertilizer out of Alaska herring. "Fcr your information, will say that Alaska now is producing the Worlds largest supply of strictly first class herring. Some of the European countries like Norway and Holland catch large quantities but the fish does not average nearly as good a quality as the Alaska product. The herring in dustry is one of the biggest in Holland and in Norwap, and we see no reason why this business should not be greatly developed in the next few years up in Alaska, provided the supply of small fish is properly conserved The business of making fertilizer out of herring started in Alaska twen- ty years ago, when there were no restrictions on the catch of fish of any kind, but we believe the time has now come when the ferterlizer plants n Alaska using herring should be closed for good of the general public.
 We would thank you to inves tigate this matter carefully and then do what you can toward bringing about the desired re suits.
 Thanking you in advance for fer the courtesy, we remain,
 Yours very truly,
 The Kildall Co.,,

John Troy of the Juneau Elm pire says that some men "have been cast out by the Democratic party" in Alaska. This is hard to believe for any party that can stomach a man of Troy's stamp can stomach anything else in the world. He talks about the "real Republicans" and means thereby such men as attorneys Faulkner and Robertson who jointly managed the Democratic campaign last year.
 Ketchikan is indeed the "First City in Alaska" in many things, including high prices when com pared with Wrangell, 100 miles farther. Even in Juneau, the price of standard canned go0ds run about 5c per can less. Clerks coming to Ketchikan from Juneau for employment see the difference at once.

estlng manner, 4 resume of his ac-
tivities at Sacramento. One point
he stressed was the heated discus
sion which existed when the oleo-
margarine bill was brought before
the assembly. lie told of how the
oleomargarine manufacturers had
tried to win the assemblymen 10
their side by presenting each of
them with Il pound of oleomarga-.
rine, which was Immediately fol-
lowed by the presentation of u
pound of butter to each assembly
man by the interested dairymen.
Baxter Loveland also spoke on
the oleomargarine bill and he, as
well as Assemblyman Finney, urg
ed the center to pass a resolution
to be sent Governor Richardson,
stressing the importance of his
signing the bill and stating what
it means to Imperial County. Fol
lowing his talk such u resolution
was passed by the center.
The midwinter fair at Brawley
formed one of the chief discussions
of the center meeting. w. B. Haver-
korst, w. w. Van Pelt and Tom

which is desired this year, so that

Their Strong
Support

Baxter Loveland, prominent Braw
ley dairvman, gave an interesting
talk ON the oleomargarine law, to
the members of the FL Centro
Chamber of Commerce at the week
lv luncheon today.
The speaker explained that the
bill has passed the Legislature and
is now before the governor for his
signature. Unless it is signed with
In 10 days it will not become ID
part of the statutes, being automa-
tically vetoed. He urged the Cham
her of Commerce to send letter
to the gvernor, requesting him to
sign the measure, and urged the
importance of individuals acting.
The law provides that all oleo-
margarine sold in the state shall be
plainly marked with its ingredients,
so that those who purchase it may
know what it is made of, and have
no reason to assume that they are
purchasing butter, or any dairy
product.
He outlined the methods used in
the South Sea islands for obtain
ing copra, from which the oils and
fats useil i'll manufacturing oleo-
margarine are derived, and contrast
ed the uncleanliness of this process
with the pains taken by dairymen
to keep their dairies in strict COM
pliance with the sanitary require
ments of the state.
Despite the fact that Imperial
! ValIeH is a great dairy section,
! Loveland stated that 5000 pounds
/ of oleomargarine are used here each
month. and this represents an out
! lay of $21 900 per annum, which
might better be used in purchasing
wholesome dairy butter.
Judge Franklin j. Cole introduc
ed us his luncheon guest, Judge F.

RUNAWAYS ARE
FOUND IN YUMA

George Robinson, II, II. NJ. Rob-
inson, Is. brothers, and their cousin
Charles Robinson, Is, are held in
the juvenile department at the
county Jail following their arrest
in Yuma yesterday in company
with three girls with whom they
left Imperial Valley Saturday night.
The girls, two of whom are sis
ters, are residents of the Ronds
Corner section. are also hcRd at the
county jail, their names being with
held at the request of the au1hori-
ties. Their parents complained to
the sheriff's offj:a Sunday that
their daughters had not returned
home Saturday night, and a search
was conducted for them.
1t was at first reported that
they had left the valley with one
of tho Robinsons and two older
mon, and that the party had been
apprehended in San Diego.
The party, however. were located
at Yuma, by Officers from that city
who notified the Imperial County
authorities after they had placed
the seXtette in custody.
A. w. Swanson, county juvenile
officer had an individual talk with
each member of the party this
morning, and is making fall in
vcstigation of the case. The faith
ers of the girls were also present
during the questioning by the of
ficcr.
The boys admitted wrong doing
with the girls, and it is probable
they will be held for trial in the
juvenile department. Had they
been of age, it would have been
possible to prosecute them under the

DISTRICT In NO
SHAPE TO MOVE
SHOPS IS CLAIM
Brandenburg Case May
End Today; May
Ask NOn-Suit

Hearing on the so-callfd "Bran-
denberg case, against the imper
ial Irrigation District, proceeded
this morning before Judge Jamison,
in Department No. =, of the super
ior court. The action is the result
of a complaint fled by J. +. Bran
denberg, asking for an injunction
to prevent the district from M, wing
its shops from Calexico to Imperial.
The plaintiff presented a number
of witnesses this morning and yes
terday. in an effort to prove the
contention that removal of the
shops to Imperial is IN unnecessary
expense and that the work can be
carried on ut CaleXico in the future,
the same as it has been in the past.
Attorneys for the plaintiff @ssert
ed that the finances OF the Irri9a
tion District do not warrant the
expenditure Of the expense lavolv-
ed in removal of the shops.
The claim is also made that the
removal of the shops was not prompt
ed by desire for economy, orr
more efficient conduct of the dis
trict s work, but was made solely
as the result of a conspiracy on
tho part of Directors Rose, Pound
and Aten, to punish CaleXico for its
opposition to the legislation for
the construction of Boulder Canyon
dam and the All,Amarican canal.
1t was expected that the plaintiff
would complete his case this after
noon, and thereafter that motion
for non-suit would be entered by
Attorney Childers, of Swing Child
ers and Roberts, counsel for the
district.
May Seek Non-Suit
Asked if he intended to enter u
non-suit motion, Attorney Chl,d-
ers stated this noon that he could
not say. However, gossip about
the courthouse follow.lg the noon
recess, indicated that the plaintiff
had not established Il case against
the district and that a motion for
would be in order.
