SNOW IN THE MOUNTAINS.

1t is quite generally believed, in this sec.
ton of the State, that abundant snow-falls in
the mountains West Of m, during the winter
months, are always followed BY timely and
abundant rains during the spring and sum-
mer months. C. W. johnson, Esq., Of Hia-
vstha, has discussed this theory at length,
in the columns Of the Champion, and asseris
that the meteorological records for half .
century conclusively establish its truth. II
the theory is correct, We can confidently an
iicipste abundant rains during the ensuing
spring and summer. for all accounts agree
that the SHOWS in the mountains, during the
past winter, have been unusually heavy.
John Addoms, Of Corrine, Utah, who has
been in that and other mountainous regions
for twenty years past. and who rs now on q
Wait to relatives in this city. informs us tina,
the SHOWS in the mountains, this winter, have
been very heavy. Similar statements come
from other sources Champion.

trees have been planted since the ordinance

of trees yet to be planted within the limits

1906 IMMIGRATION.


The tide Of immigration into this State has
,et in much earlier than usual, and already
the stream has assumed the proportions Of .
mighty torrent. Every train from the East
is crowded with home-seekers in Kansas, and
carly as it is in the season the number COM
ing daily into the State can be reckoned far
mn into the hundreds. Those who come to
Kansas by the trains We can See, and estimate
the number; those who come in wagons We
do not see, and have no means of Knowing
nor even estimating their number, though 1t
can safely be said that seventy-hve per cent.
o. many come by their own conveyances a.
come by the cars.
Such a rush as this has no precedent in
history. There is a reason for it, however,
and this reason is plain. kansas offers no
large fortunes, like the mines Of Colorado.
and it cannot be even said that Kansas is free
from those ills all new States are heir "; but
the record of the State has been for the years
since her first settlement. go uniformly good
that it has placed her beyond the competi'
ton Of any other commonwealth in the Union.
The rage to secure homes ia Kansas has az
sumed epidemic form, and the fear that
some one will get ahead of him has induced
the sturdy husbandman Of the East to begin
his iourpev Ransasward thus early. Already
it iss problem the railway companies OF the
State are making preparations to solve, as to
how this hegira shall be accommodated. Ii
the rush is 50 great early in March, what
will it be in April or Msy7 There ia no
railroad in the State which has cars sufficient
to accommodate the large number which will,
in a month, come pouring into the North
western, Western, Southwestern and South
ern portions Of the State.
Kansas has the beet OF reasons to congrat-
ulare herself upon the quality Of this years
immigration. Thoee Who have watched il
carefully say tits. as whole, superior to
that Of any other year. As matter oil
course, while this State wants her prairies
filled up, it is an item of bu-ine's and sell
interest that those who rettle should b de-
sirable and valuable clas.-thrifiy, energetic,
frugal and industrious. Those who are com.
ing to Kansas this year are Of this cla~.
They come, too, not as paupers, to be thrown
upou the charity of the State in case thsii
first crop should not prove bonanza, oa1
each family representing suficiency to tide
over any temporary disaster. We welcome
this class, for il represen's the bone and sine~
of success. Times.

When the railway party was at

were lacking but two hundred and
thirty. miles to complete the
long discussed and highly Gesirs-

and the party of railway men to

remained to SEQ the line below the

That was niHe days ago, and it Is
only fair 10 assume that since at

been completed, on the one side
and the other. We thus have the
