NARCOTICS and
CHINESE TAKEN
I'm LOCAL RAID

Prison terms and eventual de-
portation today faced five Chinese
arrested late last night in a sud-
den raid by state agents and Ell
Centro police on a rooming house
at Fifth and Commercial streets,
in which the Chinese were arrested
and a large quantity of narcotics
seized.
The prisoners held at the county
Jail today are Huey Sue Gong, 26,
.Tuey Choy Sea, 80, M. S. Quon, 80,
All Sung, 10, and H. M. Quon, 26.
Arresting officers were Grant Pc
terson and Earl Anderson, state
agents, and E. Capps, Ell Centre
patrolman.
The officers acted on informa-
ton that the suspects were ham
ding narcotics, making the raid
suddenly just after midnight. They
expressed the belief today that the
raid had closed one of Imperial
valleys greatest narcotic sources.
Arraigned before Judge l. May
field this morning, the Chinese
were charged with possession of
varying quantities of opium, NOR
phine and cocaine. A preliminary
hearing will be held August "a to
determine if they shall be, held
for trial by the superior court.
Bond ranged from $1,000 to $500.

STATE CONTROLS
COUNTIES NOW
SAYS CAMERON
By ]. S. CAMERON

1t is strange but true that the
county government, under what is
known as the county government
act, has drifted into legislative con-
troll. The fundamental principle of
governing under constitutional
device seems to BE entirely lost sight
of. The legislature of the state of
California has assumed a preroga-
tive which it is not entitled to. How
and why this condition came about
is not clear, but the populace, in
its present extremity, is awakening
to the facts and will endeavor to
correct the error in principle as
well as the error in structure.
The California commission on
home control, recognized this situ-
alton, and suggested a remedy.
They also. pointed out in their re-
port that many of the counties are
too small and that in order to ac-
compliSh the best results in local
government, many of the smaller
counties should be united under one
government and thus minimize
public expense. There is at this
time, movement on foot to unite
San Mateo county with San Fran
cisco county and city, and plans
are under way TO consolidate Los
Angeles county and city. The trend
of the public mind is now toward
coordination and simplification.
1t is strange, indeed, that the
public has been so slow in recogniz-
ing SO simple a fundamental as
we'll directed, centralized and SIM
> plified local government. Yet,
when we look back and view human
experience in the past in the light
of our modern progress, we wonder
. at the display of ignorance and stu
pidity Each new movement is a
step up the ladder of governmental
progress. Sometimes backward steps
have been taken but ,the trend is
forward and upward.
The active American mind is con-
stantly striving to do something
better. 1t is a potent historical
fact that upon discovery of defects
in any part of our American gov
ernmental structure, some group
will mark down the mistake and
seek to correct it. And SO it is that
the board of freeholders, now at
work in the preparation of a char
ter to be proposed for Imperial
county, is endeavoring to correct
the fundamental error of govern
ment by legislation.

AT RIVERSIDE

Mrs. Maud Toncray Hammond
wife of Harry w. Hammond, part
owner of The Press, and mother of

lieving her condition, and though

that ultimately she would recover,
she grew steadily weaker until the
end came.
Mrs. Hammond was born in

mont, where she attended school
She was married to Harry w
Hammond at Fremont in 1889, re-
naming in that city until their re-
moval to California in 1895. They
first settled near Corona, remov-
ing four years later to Ontario and
thence to Riverside in 1899, when
Mr.. Hammond became one OF the
partners in The Riverside Press.
Mrs. Hammond was active in a
number of Riverside organizations
during her residence there. An ac-
complished singer in her younger
days, she continued her interest in
music throughout her life and was
an active member of the Tuesday
Musical club of Riverside, serving
for two years as its president.
She was a member of the Delphi
ian Society of Riverside, and had
served as its president.
Her interest in welfare work leo
her to associate her efforts with
other women in the organization oi
the Community Settlement of Riv-
erside, and she was a member oi
its board of directors for many
years. She was also active in the
Ladies Aid society of the Congre-
gational church, both organizations

HOLLYWOOD. Aug. II. U.H =
Professional athletes, particularly

Initial estimates indicate that
the cost of the program would
be approximately $40,000,000 and
would employ not less than 5000
men. 1t is figured that mainte-
nance costs over a 30-year period
would total about $15,000,000,
and that, at the end of this
period, the timber harvest-on
the basis of present low prices
would be valued at not less than
$75,000,000.

Miss Annie Smith Peck. the famous

Then she studied music in Germany.

She later taught mathematics in
school in Cincinnati, and Latin at Pur.

climbed the Matterhorn in 1895, and
Popocatepetl and OriZaba in 1897.
Apparently no mountain peak in South
America or the Alps was too high for
her. In 1898, she clambered to the
top of Mt. Huascaran, in Peru, mat
ter of 21,S12 feet, the highest point at
