Again I'm Hook.

Welk Lothrop is again in the
"jug." His bondsmen withdrew
from his bond last Monday night
because he did net leave the country
as he agreed to do when they fur
nished bouds. 1t seems to be hard
for him to get new bonds, and there
is probability that Welk will spend
few months in the hotel de DON
nelly, and get thoroughly sobered
up.

Irrigation In All Ages.

Cannon, the Mormon leader, in a
recent address claimed that the late
Irrigation Congress in Salt Lake
City is an illustration of the fulfill
ment of the prophecy that "the ma
tions of the earth will eventually
bow down and come to Zion to learn
wisdom" The irrigation system
was praticed thousands of years ago
by the ancients in Egypt, Babylon
and India. The Spaniards used ir-
rigation in New Mexico 200 years
ago, and the Indians in Arizona
and Old Mexico perhaps thousand
years ago. Irrigation is almost as
old as farming itself in many coun-
tries. 1t was known long ago in
Italy, Spain and France. The
Greedy colonists, who had never
seen the Mormon Irrigation system,
adopted it near Denver quarter OF
a century ago and achieved re-
markable success in utilizing the
Rocky Mountain streams which
pour down across the thirsty plain
into the South Platte. Forty years
ago the Californians employed it. 1t
is an art almost as old as time.
