DIRECTORS OF
CHAMBER TO Be
CHOSEN FRIDAY

New directors of the Ell Centro
Chamber of Commerce will be
chosen tomorrow when the annual
election of that organization will be
held between the hours of II and
five in the afternoon. It is felt by
the present directors and staff of
the chamber that Ell Centro has had
a year of remarkable achievement
despite the depression felt elsewhere
in the country, and one reason for
this fact is that the chamber
through its publicity, has inspired
and held the confidence of the COM
munity.
During this year, largely through
the efforts of the chamber, much
highway work has been done in I'M
perial County. Many miles of high
way are now under construction and
much is projected for the fiscal year
beginning July l. In fact, the state
highway primary system throughout
Imperial county will probably be
built during the calendar year 1881
and fully improved to high type
of construction. 1t is believed no
other county in the state will have
its primary mileage completed and
the permanent wide roads con-
structed to modern highway STAN
dards except Imperial County by the
end of 1881.
In a statement issued today con-
cerning the accomplishments of the
Ell Centro chamber, r. B. WhitelaW,
president of the organization, had
this to say; II have been surround
ed by fine bunch of fellows, held
back at nothing, but whenever the

CABBERT GIVES
FINE TALK ON
DESERT ROADS

Dwelling on the scenic beauty of
the old Butterfield stage route,
eventually to become the new I'M
perial Highway, John r. Gabbert,
editor of the Riverside Enterprise,
yesterday spoke before the Ell Gen.
tro Chamber of Commerce on
points of interest of that historic
road. Gabbert first touched upon
the discoveries that have been made
In the desert sections of the west
concerning early habitations of
mankind, perhaps of the prehistoric
age. He tlen spoke of the Gle ANA
route of 177a, which very closely
travelled the route later taken by
the Bntterfield stages and gave
some details of that mode of travel
unknown to many of his hearers.
Gabbert has spent many weeks
camping along the Butterfield route
and told of the old stage stations
and the report of buried treasure
at one of the old stage stops which
is borne out by the fact that
eattleman of that district has
found scattered at various points a
number of $3.50 gold pieces. sup
posed to have been buried by ban
dts In the early days of the west
when many dishonest persons made
their living by getting acquainted
at the stage stops with men return
ing from the gold fields and through
games of chance relieved them of
their wealth.
THE desert is not an arid waste
said the speaker, 1T abounds in
relics of Indian and early white
settlers; its gullies present palm
filled oases TO the traveller, on the
Butterfield road the palms often
mingling with the pines. From the
ridges ono studies scenes of unsur-
passed beauties and nowhere else
in the world III such a short dis
tance is there such variety as ON
this road of mountains, desert and
widely different crops"

the Firestone dealer.
1t is believed almost certain that
new records will be scored at the
1881 Indianapolis races, and Fire
stone tires will play a big part in
establishing them.

The conferences between Hoover

interests and the tentative agree

regrouping of the world imperiahst
interests, for the redistribution of

The French press saw In Borans
