THE NEW YAKlMA.

Already steps are being taken under the
Mcintyre bill for the formation Of iTriga-
ton districts, and the beginning Of the
new and prosperous condition Of Yakima
Is In sight. It Is known what this coun-
Try viii produce when watered, and the
wonderful results Of irrigation are fact
which no theory can contravene nor
prejudice blot out. It is not to be denied
that people accustomed to rainy country
in the season Of growing crops have q
prejudice against irrigation when they
have never experienced its conveniences
and profits; but the ofE-years, when
drouth means a total failure Of crops,
often nd them Of this prejudice. The ex-
perience Of those who have raised crops
by irrigation is always such as to confirm
them in its use, and they would not will
ingly exchange It for dependence upon
uncertain clouds.
The present activity Is wholesome. It
IL not attended by boasts Of . fabulous
rise in prices Of raw lands, and is there
fore not speculative. It implies that the
lands Of Yakima, which are now given up
to sage-bFush, will be made ready for the
farmer, and that our long-ielt want Of
more rural population, more producers,
Is soon to be gTatifed. The settlers who
buy Yakima lands now and bring them
into cultivation will not only alizelaTgely
from their production, but in few years
will part with them, II they choose, to
Others at q price which will be the COM
petenee which they may invest in other
pursuits or with which they may procure
the coveted ease Of after life.
North Yakima will have stake in every
organized irrigation district in Yakima
county, and in every rod Of land and ditch
that is to water Il. Its life is in the sur
rounding rich country, and when the lrri-
CATION improvements have been made
then will agriculture and horticulture
thrive, and as the country is enriched 90
will the town grow and become more
prosperous. Thus town and country are
bound by common interest.

GERMANY has established q pension
bureau for unskilled labor very much
like that in practice by many railroad
companies. The labOrer pays ~ cents
a week into the pension fund, the en-
ployer pays the same amount for each
laborer employed and the government
pays $lO.5O year. After q certain time
Of service each superHnnuated laborer re-
ceives q pension about equal to oAe-third
Of the wages he was able to earn in his
younger days. This is another step to-
wards BellamYism.

THE CATTLE LOSSES.


The weather prophets all unite now in
stating that the baek-bone Of winter is
broken. The leaden skies have been van
ished BY the sun, and the frost and snow
IL fast giving eWay to the spring mud.
The winter has been hard one on stock
and many Of the largest cattle men have
received a blow from which 1t will take q
number Of favorable seasons to recover.
To estimate the per cent ofloss Is difficult.
snipes 4 Allen, p. ]. Flint, Baxter &
sharkey and other large cattle raisers
viii loose more than fifty per cent Of their
bands, while the loss Of the Mckee COM
pany and many Of those with few hun
dred head who had plenty Of feed, will be
comparatively light. The loss on differ
emit ranges varied. The cattle on the
Mckee range doubtless suffered the least,
while the mortality on the Cowychee,
Lower Yakima and Horse Heaven ranges
ives the greatest. In the Natcheez,
Wenas and Ahtanum valleys the cattle
men generally had sufficient feed, but
had the severe weather lasted week or
ten days longer, all the hay in the coun-
Try would have been exhausted. The
loss falls principally on q few, as the
farmers with barn yard stock or small
herds Of range cattle mainly had
ample provision for caring for
their stock, and their losses are slight.
With the commencement Of winter the
estimate Of range cattle In the county was
twenty thousand. Roughly stated half
Of these are now dead, and two-thirds Of
this loss will fall on les than half q dozen
men. Il was the longest and most trying
winter since the memorable one Of 1880
81, when the cattle loss in the county
footed up = million and . half Of dollars.
AZ that time Ben snipes had from twenty
TO thirty thousand head and g. B. Hunt
ington had 10000 head. Sam Chappell,
J. P. Nation, David Guilland, and q lot
Of others, had smaller bands, and they
lost nearly their all. Out Of $50 head,
David Guilland had but seventeen left
when spring opened up, Mr.. snipes, Of
course, was the greatest looseF, but he
rose superior 10 the situation, and from
the wreck he built up a magnificent for
tune. With the appearance Of spring the
cattle men were an depressed and anx-
ions 70 get out Of the business. Steers
weighing thousand pounds were quoted
q SIG and COW and calf at SO. Mr..
snipes realized the opportunity. Hehur-
Tied 70 Portland, laid the situation before
w. s. Ladd, and became possessed with
ample credit. He returned and bought
everything on the market. After hard
winter and plenty Of snow comes an
abundance Of nutritious grass, and the
result wss that Mr.. snipes' cattle became
fat, increased rapidly in number, and In a
comparatively short time this nsrvy man
was not only again on his feet financially,
but his wealth exceeded that Of any man
IN central Washington.

THE irrigation bill that has been passed
by the legislature providing for the for
nation Of irrigation districts IL without .
name. II has been called the Wright bill
and the Cleman-F lummerfelt bin, but Il
is neither. While containing some Of the
general features Of the Wright bill, 1t was
drawn up by J. D. Mcintyre, Of this city,
whose large experience as an irrigation
engineer and as an observing man who
has watched closely the practical work
ings Of the various systems, peculiarly
fitted him for this task. Mr.. Mcintyre
not only drew up the bill, but he spent
his time and money to secure it's passage,
and while Il will DO q graceful compli-
ment, il will be only just one to have
this measure known as the Mcintyre bill,
as almost entirely to this gentleman isdue
the honor Of Its adoption.

The quietness noted at the close Of last
week has continued, and the market has
lost . little Of the firmness reported Of
late. The offerings Of state hops are still
quite moderate, but there are more Of the
medium grades Of Pacific Coast TO be had,
and the absence Of demand at the mo-
ment naturally has tendency to unsettle
values. Holders are generally asking
about former rates, and are not disposed
to push sales, but TO do business some
shading would be necessary and we re-
wise quotations slightly. One Of the
features that Is calculated to cause most
weakness is the free imports Of German
hops and comparatively light exports. II
the balance Of trade continues against rs
1t may be that our market will decline in
spite Of the light remaining stocks Of
domestic goods. We call l9c. about the
top for choice state hops; there are lots
held in store for more money, but they
cannot be sold at present. Fair 10 prime
brewing grades are offering ct l6@lSc.,
and the lower qualities range down 10 l2c.
