HAUNTED HOUSE
PROVES TO BE
LIQUOR CACHE

Lonely and vacant, standing by
the side of the road in all the
nudity of an unoccupied house, 1t
might have been haunted by spirits
of those who lived there for a brief
period and passed on in their
transient journeying.
But those were not the kinds of
spirits Sheriff George L. Campbell
and his men found when they
raided a supposedly vacant house
on the Holtville highway two miles
east of FL Centre yesterday after
noon, and ARRESTED w. S. Murphree
on charge of possession of liquor.
There were enough spirits to
haunt a mansion. according to the
sheriff's statement, but they were
brewing and bottled, and of the
kind that haunt only by the will
of the hauntee.
Murphree was released on 5000
cash bond last night, but some 300
bottles of beer, and two 80 gallon
and one 20 gallon crooks in the
making were released without bond,
to saturate the ground about the
vacant house, and perhaps furnish
an unexpected spree to various
earth abiding insects which made
their home in the ground there
abouts.
Sheriff Campbell and Deputies
George Evans, Ernest Clay and Ed
Campbell raided the vacant house,
which was apparently intended as
headquarters for a full grown beer
joint. The sheriff expressed the
opinion that no liquor had been
sold there yet. but that business
soon would have started in full
blast.
Most of the beer was poured out,
A small quantity was kept as evi-
dence.

COURT DECIDES
COUNTY'S RIGHT
in TAX LEVYINC

SAN FRANCISCO, March 81. W.R
"A ruling that buildings of public
utilities are subject to taxation by
counties while under construction
was on file in the state supreme
court today.
The ruling was made in the course
of upholding an attempt of Los An
geles county to collect 1884 taxes
from the Southern California Tele-
phone company and the Pacific
Telephone g. Telegraph company on
exchange buildings valued at ST.
lat. .42O that were under construction
at the the time of assessment.
The opinion of Associate Justice
w. H. Langdon. unanimously con-
Cured in, defined operative prop
erty as only such property as is
actually used exclusively in the op-
Grafton of the business The utili-
ties had claimed that the buildings
under construction were operative
property and as such their value
was taxable only through the state
gross receipts tax law.
Property not in use or available
for use could not come within the
constitutional classification" the
court held.

FAIR WARNING

In case it may slip the mind of the
reader, it might be well to remind him
that tomorrow is April FOOLS day, when
the practical joker holds forth to do his
stuff.
Mysterious telephone calls, doctored
candy, and dozens of other stunts are
likely to put the average person in an
embarrassing position unless he happens
to be on his guard and remembers that
it is the day for jokers.
1t has never been a popular day with
many persons. In fact we can say per-
sonally that it lost its popularity for us
years ago. The boy who always had
plenty of candy-and ate it all himself
suddenly unloosened and graciously dis
tributed the lure of all boyhood among
dozen or more companions.
A dozen or more companions were soon
coughing and snorting from the effects
of Copenhagen snuff, which had been
placed inside the chocolates and when
they had recovered sufficiently, the mirth
smitten joker was smitten with a variety
of things so that his mother had diff

greediness, he was ostracized from then

alton that those who resented the trick
which had been played upon them had

the past and is glad to be able to do it
again. Such self-sacrifice and devotion
to Americanization, certainly merits the
cooperation of his fellow citizens. He

But he would appreciate large classes.
Why can't we cooperate with him by

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE

| In Marcn, as you ali know, the
winds blow very hard. The reason
F, for this is that the March winds
must blow away what is left of WIN

summer At least that's the way
it was in Woodland near the Orange
Ice Mountains where Uncle Wiggily
lived.
The March winds are supposed to
stop blowing on the last day of that

come with its jolly, fooling fun on

on the days that come after.
So it happened that the end of

RADICALS OR CITIZENS

Attention of readers is called to the
citizenship classes which are now be-
ing conducted at Central Union high
school, to assist foreigners who desire
to become American citizens.
A most important work is being done
by this class, without any ostentation or
clamoring for the spotlight. Results in
the way of new American citizens is all
that it seeks and in former years it has
certainly gotten results.
Too much stress cannot be placed on
the Importance of this work. We can
have in our midst, foreign radicals, scott
ing at American institutions and ready
to tear down American ideals, or we can
have good American citizens of foreign
birth, loyal to their new country and do
ing their part to preserve the traditions
and uphold the laws of the United States
The choice rests largely with ourselves,
though many of US never see it in that
light All of us know foreigners who
would make good citizens, but what do
we do to encourage them to take out cit
izenship papers?
1t might be suggested that they should
seek citizenship of their own accord.
The natural timidity of the foreigner, es-
pecially if he is from a non-English
speaking country, is great obstacle. It
is almost as great as the cloak of snob-
berry so many Americans place around
themselves when it is a question of con-
tacting foreigners.
Instead of showing some interest in the
foreigner and encouraging him to learn
American ways, too many of us are con-
tent to let him shift for himself In
fact many of US prefer that he should
do so. And then we blame the foreigner
instead Of ourselves, when some radical
succeeds in implanting his nefarious doc
trines in an alien mind and turning out
another radical.
A little consideration, little thought
fulness, little of the same courtesy and
attention we would appreciate (and
would receive) if we were living in for
eign country, would steer our foreign
residents to the citizenship class and
help them to become good Americans in
stead of bad radicals. Leaving them
neither Americans nor radicals is almost
as bad as placing them in the latter cate
