bar before coming Of age, and soon made
money The railroad fever Of 1926 seized
on the country, and in one year Mr.. Barlow
made $4,000 Thereafter he dealt only with
large cases. From the Ohio and Mississippi
Railroad company he received fees exceeding
$50, 900. He reconciled the interests of As
pinwa1l and Vanderbilt in the Nicaragua and
Panama business; they united, the stock at
once rose above par, and they each paid him
5000.
At the close of the Franco-Prussian war
Commodore Garrison held 81, zoo, 900 worth
of arms for the French, which their new gov
eminent refused to accept. Mr.. Barlow sent
an agent to Paris and secured the sale and
payment, for which he received $25, 600
His greatest feat, however, was the expulsion
Of Jaw Gould from the control of the Erie
railway, Mr. Barlow being employed by the
English stockholders. 1t was in fact forci-
BILE revolution; the Barlow forces held the
Grand Opera house by arms against the
courts then in the interest Of the other par

and Gould compromised by paying S9,0O0,-

All this time Mr.. Barlow was tolerably &C
tive in politics as a Democrat, but held no
political Office He was at various times in
law partnership with jeremiah Larocque
and his son Joseph, with ex-Judge Shipman,
eI-Judge Choate and others not so well
known. In nearly all his interests he was very
successful, which makes the fact Of his losses
by swindles the more remarkable. Last au-

HIS TRIUMPHS OF THE PAST.

Lovers of opera are disappointed to learn
that Herr Max Alvary, the famous tenor,
will not return to America for the coming
season. He had under consideration SPLEEN
did offer to support Emma Juch in English
opera-$S2, 900 season for two seasons, the
full amount guaranteed-but greater induce
ments have been offered him to stay on the
other side 1t is said that Dr. Hans Won
Bulow has made many very important en-
gagements for him. Had he come to this
country he would probably have sung
''Walther Won Sticking" and ''Siegfried, " and
would undoubtedly have repeated his tri-
umphs of last winter in New York.
The ovations given Alvary at the Metro
politan Opera house last winter are probably
still fresh in the minds of many. Almost the
entire season was devoted to the rendition OF
the works of Wagner and after many years
Of comparatively fruitless erdsavnr the mu-
sic of this composer stirred New Workers into

LOWRY'S INCONSISTENCY.
The Over-Sensitive Effervescence OF
the Mis- sissippi Governor.

The Over-Sensitive EHervesCence of
the Mississippi Governor.
NORTH PLATTE, Neb., July 4.-To the
Editor of THE BEE: Governor Lowry, OF
Mississippi, in an interview telegraphed
from Jackson, declares that he is 'taking
such steps as will in the end bring oil the
parties, PRINCIPALS and attendants of tho
Sullivan-Kirain prize fight to Justice"
Governor Lowry seems to have taken livery
much to heart that he was overreached and
outwitted not only by the bruisers but by
the railroad company that so thoroughly
did their part in transporting the
sluggers to and from the battle ground. The
governor denounces IN the strongest terms
the part played by the Northeastern railroad
company, and proposes to institute proceed
ings for the forfeiture of the charter Of that
road. "In all my experience as q public
man." says the governor--''and have had
considerable experience, having served in
both branches of the Legislature ana am serv-
ing the last year Of my second term as govs
ernor--l have never known such an utter dis
regard Of duty, such defiance Of law and
morals"
This eXtra-sensitive efferescence of Gov.
ernor Lowry would be ludicrous as COM
pared with tho Indifference. 'the utter dis
regard of duty' and defiance of law and
morals" accorded by him to the doings of the
bulldozing, ballot box stuffing ''nigger''
slayers of Mississippi, if one could forget the
nOTEIUle, DlOou-Sthlncu SC8ueS enactcu rlSnL
under his nose during the public life Of
this virtuous governor. At the risk
of being accused of swayiug the bloody
shirt. would like to ask Governor Lowry
if, as member of the Mississippi Legislature,
he asked for an investigating committee on
the Chisholm massacre a few years agoi As
governor, did he take any action in the case,
or make any effort to arrest the perpetrators
of the outrage near Arcola, Miss, last De-
cember, when seven colored servants
of Colonel Paxton were strung up
and killed without even legal investi.-
cation, because it was thought one
or two OF them had set the house on fire, and
1t could not be ascertained which were the
guilty ones, if, indeed, any of them were
gulltyl Has Governor Lowry investigated
the ''nigger hunt" by the armed bands of
white gentlemen(O at Wahalek, Miss, a
few weeks later, where q score Of negroes
were shot down IN cold boodi How about
the suppression Of the negro vote In Missis-
sippi, and the scores Of people,
white and black, murdered because OF theiI
political opinions since 1851 Perhaps, afttt
all, the governor don't mean just what no
says; and in any case it is some satisfaction
TO know that he Is making it lively for the
prize fighters and their friends. But the less
= he says about disregard of duty, defiance
of law and morals" ETC., the better he will
feel six months from now. Xxx.

PROGRESS OF TnE CHURCH.
Bishop Hare's Sermon ut Trinity Ca
theural Inst Night.


"There is a door opened before us, and
with the opening Of the door comes added
strength TO work in the fields that le beyond,
and greater success Also"
So spoke Bishop Hare from the pulpit Of
Trinity cathedral last night. The bishop ro-
viewed the standing of tho church to-day in
all parts of the world, and found food for in
finite satisfaction in the wonderful progress
made during the last century.
Instead Of prosecuting to death every min
lister of Christ who dared enter his dominion,
the emperor of China thirty years ago signed
treaty, by whose terms IL was admitted that
the christian religion elevates aud improves
all men who accept 1t, and which also pro-
vided that no professor of the faith of
Christ foreign or native converts, should be
molested on account OF his religion.
A century ago India was tightly
held in the grasp of that most Infamous Of
all tyrannical corporations, the British East
India company. Ministers and missionaries
were less welcome than as many devils
would have been, and every obstacle to sue
cess was put IN thor way. But they perse-
vered, and to-day it is the national secretary
who writes:
ITO no other power does the British gov
ernment owe so much in Indian enlighten-
ment and progress than to the mission
aries"
And so the way is thrown open. Thus it
is in every land. The way is open aud tho
church is going on triumphantly to the end.
There was but small number present in
the pews, owing perhaps to the plain indicar
tions of rain Among the distinguished per-
sons on the pulpit platform was Bishop
Worthington.

OBJECTIONS are being raised to the
proposed scheme to build storage reser-
voirs for irrigation in the mountains of
Colorado, on the ground that they would
be a constant menace to the cities and
farms in that vicinity. While the
danger may now be small, it is claimed
that within a few years the country is
likely to become thickly populated and
disaster similar to the Conemaugh
flood would create terrible havoc. There
is evidently something in this, although
the system contemplated aims TO pro-
vide many small rather than one or two
large storage reservoirs in the mountain
defiles. No matter how scientifically
constructed and strongly built they
may be, there is subtle power in the
pressure and erosion of water which will
weaken any dam, unless constantly in
spected and carefully repaired.

But allowing n considerable margin for
overestimates OF what may ultimately
be accomplished, and properly emitting
from consideration the matter OF time,
the plan still commends itself as one OF
the very greatest Importance to the -
tion. A project that contemplates
turning arid wastes into fertile regions
capable OF supporting a population but
half as large as that now in the country
can be said to be inferior in Importance
tonone other asking the serious atten-
tion OF the American people. With
abundant means at command, we need
not leave this task to be perfor med by

THE EXTENT OF TT.

Mr.. Richard j. Hinton, who has been
assigned to the senate committee on ir-
rigation TO assist in the work of organ
izing the inquiry and other details,
says that the question OF irrigation
means the reclamation from aridity to
fertility OF an area out OF which eight
states, each as large as Indiana, can be
made. At least one hundred and
twenty-five million acres Of land out of
over eight hundred million acres
can be, within few years,
brought under cultivation at no
great cost. This would mean-taklng
the generally accepted fact that twenty
five acres Of irrigated land, properly To-
Gated, Is equal to one hundred acres OF
ordinary farming land - twenty-five
million farms, sufficient to support one
hundred millions OF people. In the
opinion OF Mr.. Hinton the expense OF
such reclamation, which Is quite within
the bounds Of possibility, need amount
10 no more than fifty million dollars.
"It is not necessary to moro than sug-
gest," he observes, "that this agricul-
tural population and cultivation would
bring an equal population in towns
and manufacturing and mining
centers. Thus practical irrigation will
more than double the present popu-
lated area Of the United States.
The area which the senate committee
Is soon to examine is almost wholly the
property of the United States. With
out irrigation it must remain largely a
region Of a. few great cattle ranches
and fewer mines, and sparsely settled,
having no great material value as COM
pared with the balance Of the country.
On the other hand, every irrigated
acre will be worth from five To fifty
times as much as ordinary farm
ing land elsewhere. This has al
ready been demonstrated In California
and Colorado, and in fact wherever
irrigation Is practiced. The experience
is uniform that land watered in this
way is far more valuable than the aver
| age Of ordinary farming lands.
OF course the. estimated possibilities
from irrigating the arid regions OF the
west may he somewhat exaggerated, and
| even il they be- unquestioningly con-
ceded 1t would be a matter OF generations
OF time before they were fully realized

A Lying Report.

LeHltlTs tfu y SCIUITst.
If the Omaha Herald has correspondent
here he can work up big boom for himself
handing in his name for publication, or by
printing it in that connection in his own
paper. He is in great demand. He sent a
great special to his paper, telling how the
farmers of Plymouth county were all ruined
by the hail storm, and that outside aid would
have to be asked for the sufferers. 1t would
have been an important piece Of news if true I:
but the facts are that the farmers of PLY.
mouth county can stand on their own bottom.
They are good deal better able TO pay their
bills than the Herald. There are over
500,O00 acres Of farming land in Plymouth
county, aud at most only about %. 900 to 30, 600
acres felt the storm, and some of that only
slightly. What object man could have in
sending out over the country lying report
that would do the county and city so much
harm is hard to understand. 1t was mere
wanton sensationalism. Such a reporter
ought to be backlisted. THE OMAHA BEE
printed the truth about the storm on Monday.
