The CONVENTION.


In reply to an invitation to attend
the irrigation convention, Hon. j.
M. Carey, chairman of the U. S. SEN
ate labor and education committee,
writes as follows:
/ am heartily in accord with its
objects, namely: To awaken sound
public sentiment OH the subject of
irrigation. OF all the questions that
will concern the people of the west
ern half of the domain of the United
States for the next fifty years be-
lieve none will be more important
than that growing out of the reela-
nation of the arid lands. If all the
water found and precipitated in this
great section of the country could
be utilized in the cultivation of
crops no one lives who could proper
ly appreciate the possibilities of the
country and the magnitude and va
riety of its productions.
have given the matter much
thought, and l confess / do not know
what is the best thing to do. The
western states and territories desire
results, and what they want they
want quickly. A western population
never moves at slow pace. Discus
sion is doing great good, and the Ir-
rigation conventions of the West are
attracting wide attention in the East.
The leading newspapers are devoting
columns to the subject of irrigation.
The two important questions on this
subject now are: first, what is the
best plan for the states and territories
concerned; second, what can they Sc
cure? The government owns the
land, and it is willing that the
people should settle upon it, CIV
ing 10 each settler a small tract.
This will not accomplish the purpose.
Is it practicable for the government
To build irrigation works? Is it fea-
slble for the states and territories,
in case the states can secure the title
to the land by cessiOn of the same by
the general government, TO undertake
the work, or would it be better to
have liberal laws, with proper re-
strictions, that would induce private
capital to undertake the work? Shall
a single plan be adopted, or shall the
country interested urge legislation
that will encourage reclamation un-
der two different systems. Any rea-
sonable plan is better than none.
believe in the agitation of all
these questions, so that wise con-
clusion can be speedily reached. 1t
is a great subject, and involves
serious consideration. In the mean
time let nothing be left undone that
educates the American people up to
the point where they will feel that
the higher interests of our country
demands not only wide and broad
legislation but prompt action.

The scholarly attainments of many
of the proof readers of the country
are not known as they should be.
One of that craft, Arthur H. Brown,
of the United States printing office
in Washington, is called Dictionary
Brown" on account of his remark
able accuracy. The Boston Journal
says that typesetters in protesting
against some of his corrections have
shown him that Webster endorsed
their own judgment. $50 it does,"
Brown would say calmly. Then he
would correct the dictionary with
pen and ink. "His corrections were
always right, too," says the Journal.
Once he sent about twenty of them
to the publisher of the dictionary,
who accepted all of them and made
him present of an elegantly bound
copy.

A gossipy lettert to the Louisville

army, and he was great soldier,
too; he distinguished himself i'll bat

commission. 1t was withheld from
him, however, for the reason that
Ben Harrison thought himself as
good a man as Oliver p. Morton.
The great war governor would brook
no rival in the Hoosier state, and
Harrison refused to be one of his
henchmen, and hence it was that
when it was rainingpromotions only
one, and that little one, fell to Har-
rison. Morton attended to that.
After the war Morton kept Harrison
down in civil life, but one day death
tapped the great leader on the
shoulder and took him away from
among men. The primacy in the
state of Indiana, that is, the Repub'
lican primacy, fell to Harrison, and
he has maintained it from that day to
this, despite the popularity of
Gresham and the ambition of Por-

the cheering and toasting Col. Rich
ards, who commanded the camp,
(Brook) and who was present at the
banquet, rose from his seat, COM
manded attention and said. "You
have been toasting to and cheering
yourselves and the other companies,
/ want to propose q toast and three
times three cheers to the noblest
white man that ever wore shoulder
straps, Captain Robert b. Green, of
the Belknap Rifles. Boys, you ought
10 be proud of him." To say that the
cheers were given with q will and
whoop, is needless. And the boys
are proud of him. No better captain
ever trod competitive field than he.
Scurry, Reichardt and Green are mill
itary men that all Texas is proud Of.
The train which brought the Boys
home was twenty minutes late, con-
sequently it was Il O'Clock before they
reached the armory. A party OF the
home mem bers met them at the de-
pot; at the armory were the rest.
Knowing the boys would be hungry,
several of the home members yesler-
day met and decided to give them .
lapch. 1t was rather late, bat they
went to work. 1t spread over town
very quickly what they were about,
and donations of sandwiches, beer
and cigars poured into the armory;
enough to feed two such companies.
To the liberal, whole souled gentle
men who so kindly complimented the
boys the committee take this oppor-
tunity to publicly thank them. Those
who did this were Mr.. L. Mshncke.
of the Mahncke hotel; John Lous.

varieties of the choicest sandwiches;
Messrs. Louis Furtner, of the Nave

VIM. Reuter- and Joe Cooley, each a
box of excellent cigars; the Lone Star
and Alamo breweries, each one keg
of beer. The beverage was cooling
and bracing to the boys after their
long journey and was much appre-
ciated.
Four of the boys failed to return.
They were John P. Tugwell, who re-
manned at Omaha. where he secured
fine position at his trade, boiler
maker. Mr.. VIM. Jonas stopped off
at Kansas City, where he was alike
successful, following the same busi-
