ECHO FROM OLD IRRIGATION DISTRICT RIALTO IRRIGATORS HAVE SUITS IN THE COURT RELATIVE TO BONDS AN ISSUE OF THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS DECLARED TO BE INVALID Citrus fruit growers who invested in the bonds of the Rialto Irrigation district, San Bernardino county, some years ago, are interested in two suits involving the validity of $300,000 of the bonds of the corporation, now on trial before Judge Wellborn of the United States district court. Bert Chellis and W. C. Stowell are the plaintiffs, the cases involving the same issues. The record shows that on November 17, 1890, the directors of the Rialto Irrigation district, of which A. B. Fowler was president and D. Robinson secretary, passed a resolution providing for the issue with interest and installment coupons. The superior court of San Bernardino county on January 2, 1891, established the validity of the bonds in a suit to determine the question. The amount prayed for by Bert Chellis is $25,-068.75. The Rialto Irrigation district officers deny that the directorate had any right to issue the bonds, although it is admitted they were issued, signed and sold; it is also denied that the plaintiffs purchased the bonds in good faith, or in the ordinary course of business, or for value, or without the actual knowledge of the dishonor of the bonds and coupons; they deny that FLIES TO BE PROTECTED Society to Be Formed on the Basis of the Following Argument The fly, likewise the appendix, was created for a wise purpose. Remove the appendix, the body can no longer perform its functions properly. Remove the fly, the atmosphere will assume unnatural conditions and may, in time, erfuse to sustain life. Remembering that the group of intelligent, humane individuals who recently got together to decide the relative importance of dogs and humans, found no difficulty in deciding in favor of the dog, we are inclined to give this seemingly absurd rumor some serious consideration; the while we wonder how much longer men will persist in providing for themselves both disease and discomfort. A SIGN OF IGNORANCE Have you ever met the woman who is continually in a state of boredom? I mean she who is genuinely bored, not she who effects it. Boredom, far from being a sign of having seen too much, is a sign of having seen too little. It is the hall mark of ignorance. To be interested in everything, and in everyone, is a sign of culture. The woman of many interests can talk with anyone on any subject. She who has lived only in her little thoughts, and her own little circle is almost impossible to converse with, because she is only interested in the few things she knows about; therefore the more things you are interested in, the more things you show that you know about. The bored woman is also the self-centered one. There are many women of this description who as long as they can hold the center of things are interested, and the moment conversation veers away from them become prey to the most evident ennui. To be bored is a habit that grows. First it may be a pose. Soon it becomes a reality. The mummified ex- THE SUMMER GIRL Her heels are the highest, her hose is the thinnest, Her skirt is the narrowest ever displayed; Her neck is the lowest, her sleeves are the shortest, Her earrings the longest that ever were made. Her feather's the tallest, her watch is the smallest. That ever kept time in a circle of pearls. Her handbag's the biggest, her puffs are the broadest. That ever were pinned to a structure of curls. Her hatpin's the sharpest that ever projected. Ten inches or more from a lingerie hat; Her sunshade's the deepest that ever was carried And shaped like a Chinese pagoda at that. Her collar's the laciest bit of adornment That e'er from the makers of lingerie came. For she is the summer girl back to the beaches, And living as ever right up to her name. TIME IS THE TEST The Testimony of Anaheim People-Stand the Test The test of time is what tells the tale. The public soon finds out when misrepresentations are made, and merit alone will stand the test of time. Anaheim people appreciate merit, ad many months ago local citizens publicly endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills; they do so still. Would a citizen make the statement which follows unless convinced that the article was just as represented? A cure that lasts is the kind that every sufferer from kidney illis is looking for. Mrs. E. Kraatz, S. Claudina street, Anaheim, Cal., says: "In May, 1907, I publicly recommended Doan's Kidney Pills in return for the benefit my son received from their use. For a number of years he was troubled by a weak back and other symptoms of disordered kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at Mullinix's Drug Store, removed his trouble and made him feel better in every way. The fact that over two years have since passed without a return attack of kidney complaint, increases my faith in Doan's." the validity of the bonds in a suit to determine the question. The amount prayed for by Bert Chellis is $25,068.75. The Rialto Irrigation district officers deny that the directorate had any right to issue the bonds, although it is admitted they were issued, signed and sold; it is also denied that the plaintiffs purchased the bonds in good faith, or in the ordinary course of business, or for value, or without the actual knowledge of the dishonor of the bonds and coupons; they deny that the complainants are now or ever have been the owners of the bonds; deny that the superior court of San Bernardino county ever affirmed the validity of the bonds; that the bonds are negotiable in character, or issued for a lawful consideration, but were issued for construction work and are invalid and void. The Rialto Irrigation district was composed of citrus producing lands divided into 10- and 20-acre farms, irrigated by 1000 inches of water measured under a four-inch pressure pipe to each farm lot. Under the arrangement provided for the bond issue, it is alleged that it was to be paid for by an annual tax upon the properties served with water. The litigation has been in the local courts for a number of years, but this will be the first hearing in the United States court. All of the preliminary motions have been disposed of and the case this week will be decided on its merits by Judge Wellborn. The court proposes to begin the hearing Tuesday morning and it is expected that it will continue the balance of the week. LOVE LETTER OF MARK TWAIN'S Reviewing the manuscripts which Mark Twain’s wife induced him to discard, and certain edited manuscripts, one gets a partial idea of what the reading world owes to Olivia Clemens. It should be said here that there is not the least evidence (and the manuscripts are full of evidence) that Mrs. Clemens was ever supersensitive or narrow or unliterary in her restraints. She became his public, as it were, and no man ever had a more open-minded, clear-headed public than that. No one realized her worth more than he. No one made fuller acknowledgment of it, not only afterward, but then, and to her. On her thirtieth birthday (November 27, 1875), he wrote her a letter which conveys something of the tribute of his love. "Livy Darling: Six years have gone by since I made my first great success in life and won you, and thirty years ORANGE COUNTY SUGAR Orange county will have five sugar-beet factories this year, for a new one near Santa Ana was recently reported to be nearing completion. The "campaign" will probably begin about August 1st. Orange county has achieved quite a position in the great industry during recent years, for as above stated the new factory is the fifth within her confines for manufacturing sugar. There is another one at Santa Ana besides the new establishment, and the remaining three are located at Los Alamitos, Huntington Beach and Anaheim. If all these are in operation, as they probably will be this year, the production of the commodity will attain very large proportions. The sugar-beet industry is by far one of the most widespread and important in the state. Last year the yield was something like 3,260,769 bags of 100 pounds each, which in all probability was greater than that of any other state in the Union, although 16 of them were manufacturing the product. It is more than probable that there will be an increase in California's output this year, for the acreage has been extended, and several new factories besides the one mentioned above will probably be in operation. Mrs. E. Kraatz, S. Claudina street, Anaheim, Cal., says: "In May, 1907, I publicly recommended Doan's Kidney Pills in return for the benefit my son received from their use. For a number of years he was troubled by a weak back and other symptoms of disordered kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at Mullinix's Drug Store, removed his trouble and made him feel better in every way. The fact that over two years have since passed without a return attack of kidney complaint, increases my faith in Doan's Kidney Pills." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

On her thirtieth birthday (November 27, 1875), he wrote her a letter which conveys something of the tribute of his love. "Livy Darling: Six years have gone by since I made my first great success in life and won you, and thirty years have passed since Providence made preparation for that happy success by sending you into the world. Every day we live together adds to the security of my confidence that we can never any more wish to be separated than we can imagine a regret that we were ever joined. You are dearer to me today, my child, than you were upon the last anniversary of this birthday; you were dearer then than you were a year before—you have grown more and more dear from the first of those anniversaries, and I do not doubt that this precious progression will continue on to the end—that is, if my strong outsluggish demonstrative love has not already reached its limit and perfection. "Let us look forward to the coming anniversaries, with their age and their gray hairs, without fear and without depression, trusting and believing that the love we bear each other will be sufficient to make them blessed.

Mr. Vosburg is erecting a fine resort hotel, after the general style of the Glenwood, Riverside, more evidence of the great prosperity that is taking place since the new water discovery. This new hotel will have over two hundred foot frontage, and be strictly modern in every particular. In addition there are two elegant Hot Springs resorts, and the famous Mountain Resort of Idylwild near by, all contributing their share to the desirability of San Jacinto and vicinity as a home site. In fact our beautiful valley has so much to offer in the way of inducements at this particular time, that anything in the form of advice from us, except a direct invitation to come and see with your own eyes, would be a useless expenditure of time, and possibly the loss of a good opportunity. Your eyes will tell you more than could be expressed in volumes. They will give you the whole truth, and in time to act to advantage. If you decide to come, either to look the valley over, or as a prospective neighbor, you can rely on this organization for complete co-operation and advice at all times. Personally we have no lands for sale, but we are interested in seeing our valley grow and fill up with the right kind of people. We know from a close comparison of conditions and prices in the best localities throughout the southern part of the State, that lands around San Jacinto, and business property within the city, are being priced away under value. The thrifty little city of San Jacinto, with its wholesale and commission houses, furnishes an up-to-the-minute market for everything that is raised. A committee with autos has been appointed to show everybody around free and we extend a hearty invitation to all of our good neighbors to see this beautiful little valley of ours in all its glory.
