Artificial irrigation is doing wonders

Artificial irrigation isdoing wonders
for Southern California. Three years ago
land sold above riverside for $5 an acre.
It was without water and was counted
valuable only for grazing. A gentleman
made contract with large number of
owners of land to furnish them abundant
water at 800 per acre. Then he dug an
ll-mile canal, supplied with water partly
from Santa Ana river, but mainly from
artesian wells. Last week water was
turned into the canal, and land which sold
for s5 now sells readily for $500 an acre.

WASHINGTON, March l.
The chair laid before the Senate a letter
from the secretary of the treasury transmit
ting 20 reply to a recent Senate resolution. a
report showing the claims, accounts and
vouchers suspended in that department.
In discussing the motion TO print the papers
Mr.. Hale said that the accounting officers of
the treasury had lately taken what seemed to
him the extraordinary course of "holding up
or suspending accounts or vouchers of officers
of the government, who, according to custom
and usual authorization had paid out moneys
which had been entrusted to them for the
purpose of being so paid out. The conten-
ton of accounting officers of the treasury,
Mr.. Hale said, wss that the payments were
unauthorized. The paper. were ordered
printed.
At l2 80, ON motion of Mr.. Hale. the SEN
ate went into executive session.
Mr.. Hoar for the committee on privileges
and elections reported back without any
recommendation the resolution heretofore Of
fered by Mr.. Riddleberger ard the substitute
for it offered by Mr.. Pugh, relating to the
right of the Senate to ask the President for
reasons for removals or suspensions from Of
fee. Mr. Hoar remarked that as the subject
matter had been dealt with by another COM
mittee Judiciary and as the majority and
minority reports had come from that commit
tee. the committee on privileges and cleo
tons didn't think it worth time to deal with
the question. The committee was dis
charged from its consideration and the reso-
lutions laid on the table to be taken up if de-
cided when the report of the judiciary COM
mittee shall be taken up.
Mr.. Plumb submitted an amendment to be
offered by him to the interstate commerce
bill when it shall be up for consideration.
prohibiting railroads from issuing free passes
to members of Congress, or officers and en-
ployees of the government, or 10 members of
their families. The amendment also makes
it unlawful for any member Of Congress OF
officer or employee of the government to ap-
ply for free pass. or to be allowed to travel
on any railroad at lower rate than that
charged the general public. The penalty for
violating these provisions is prepared by Mr..
Plumb to be foe not 20 exceed $500. The
amendment was ordered printed.
On motion of Mr.. Gosman the Senate
passed the House resolution providing for the
printing of 81 600 copies of the euiogies OF
