HORSE GOSSIP.


There was great excitement in Lincoln
last Saturday over the poisoning of Georges
Dearborn's stallion Paddy r., which took
the premium at the State fair last fall. The
poisoning was evidently the work OF envious
parties, who got into the stable at Bristol
while Mr.. Dearborn was at dinner. The
poison used must have been stryohnine, and
the horse is in fair way to recovery, al
though considerably cut up and strained
while in spasm5.

Irrigation and CONGRESS.

Governor John n. Irwin, of Arizona,
writing in The Forum, places the irriga-
ton subject before the public in a clear
form. A domain equal to the states of
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois
now lies before the agriculturist, meal
culably rich in all that goes to the max.
ing of crops, excepting only water.
Much of this land will return in fruits,
nuts and vegetables $3.50 to $500 an acre.
What has been done already is in
stanced in the case Of Colorado and Cal
ifornia, the only states so far which
have well defined irrigation laws and
systems, Irrigation costs in the neigh
borhood of ten dollars an acre in much
of the arid region. Governor Irwin says;
Three plans are presented for the construc-
ton Of lakes for the storage of water:
First-That it be undertaken by the govern
ment Of the United States as a national work.
Second-Ihat the state or territory provide
the reservoirs within its borders.
Third-Thatthew work be done by private cap
itaL
OF these the last, taking everything into con-
sideration, is infinitely preferable,
Inc future prosperity OF the people in the
arid region and the millions that region can
easily be made to support depends upon the
solution OF the problem of water storage OF the
reservoir system. There is no Lack Of water.
The trouble arises from the unequal and IN
seasonable distribution, and the problem is to
retain the water falling in the rainy season
and that caused by the melting Of the noun
tain SHOWS in reservoirs until it is needed for
the production of the crops And this problem
is merely matter Of capital first and engineer
ing skill second. 1t must be noted that all the
arid region consists Of mountains and valleys.
The mountains contain the water and the val
leys the soil. Everywhere in the mountains
are natural storage places for water that only
need walls Of sufficient dimension and strength
to hold safely and surely the great mass Of
water.
These reservoirs or artificial lakes once Sc
curely constructed, the question Of supply will
be answered, and all doubt as to the great
future Of irrigation will be settled forever To
these great works, the attention Of capital and
brains is invited The era Of railroad build
ing in the older states is almost past. In the
In It is the great future field for genius, energy
and money. Upon its development rests the
well being Of millions and the foundation Of
fortunes.
But before much can be done congress must
act. Reservoir sights must be defined. The
system of location must be made clear and
titles must be unclouded. Many Of the rivers
How through two or more states or territories,
and thus the question as between the different
states must be adjudicated by congress.

When People Are Civilized.

When people are civilized mankind
will live in the country. The cities will
be centers Of business and commercial
exchange Men viii go to them as they
now go to their stores, factories or Of
fees. They viii do their days work
there, but they viii not think Of living
there any more than they uov think Of
sleeping in their shops or counting
rooms. Great tenement houses will be
done away Long. solid city blocks.
each house containing several dark
rooms, will be done away Mankind
will have developed sense enough to
make their houses all light. so that none
will be Obliged TO spend even the bust
ness hours Of the day in dark dens like
rats in a hole
But the real life for rich and poor viii
be in the country, the blessed country.
Rapid transit viii have solved one prob
lem Of existence and helped to make life
worth living. Lightning trains will
shoot men in from the beautiful country
towns at the rate of hundred miles an
hour. Transportation win be so low
that it will be within the power of every
man to have d house and garden all his
own. His children will play outdoors
all day long and grow beautiful and
strong. Flowers will bloom and vege-
tables will grow in his garden, so that
home to him viii be a bit Of paradise
The land grabbers will be all dead then
Common people viii have learned out
of their own brains how to circumvent
them.

Emperor william. who ever since his
accession TO the German throne has been
calling himself the father Of his people
and telling them that if they obeyed his
will all would be well with them, bug If
they did not obey him they would be
ground to powder, ought least Of all
to have been surprised at tie Berlin
riot His viii, DO it observed, he con-
siders the same as that Of the Almighty.
He has said so. If, then, his children
come to him bowling for bread when
they are hungry, it is quite the right
thing for them 10 do. All children 20
bowling to their parents when they want
something to eat. Emperor William has
constantly preached to the German PEG
pie that he was the one and the only one
who could redress their wrongs, of what
ever nature. When, therefore, 1o, 900 of
them, many with families starving at
home, marched to his palace door crying
for employment, il was unkind, not to
say cruel, for William to have his sol
diers and police charge into their midst
and dispense them. 1t was not the part
of parent. He ought to have emptied
out the last bit Of food in the palace
stOrerooms TO them.
1t seems possible that the father bust
ness may be carried too far in case of a
government, for it leads the people to
depend on the patern8l government
when they ought to be stirring their wits
to help themselves out Of bad situa-
ion. That is what they would do in a
republic, where men are trained to de-
pend on themselves A curious feature
of the Berlin riots is that the socialists.
on whom IL has been the fashion to
blame every disturbance in Germany for
the last thirty years, repudiate root and
branch all responsibility for the mot.
They declared at public meeting that
they had no share in it. Further, they
passed a resolution TO the effect that So
oialists must abstain from disorder, since
this only furnishes government a pre-
ext for repressive measures. 1t will be
queer indeed if in the course Of time the
only lawabiding citizens of Emperor
should be the socialists.
The bad crops and the Barring failure.
with Emperor Williams foolish speech
at Brandenburg, were the cause of the
riots at Berlin. The majority of the
rioters were really unemployed work
ingmen, as it appears, men who, though
they had no food, still seem to have
been able to get plenty of drink.

The Most Incorporate Nations.

Axel Gustafson, in his series Of papers
IN The Christian Union on drunkenness
on the continent Of Europe, places Bel
GUM at the head of all as regards the
amount of mtoxication. Next comes
France, the wine producing country,
which thirty years ago had the reputa-
ton Of being the most temperate nation
IN Europe. But great wave of intern
peranoe has swept over the whole con-
tinent in the last generation. The con-
sumption Of spirits, wine and beer in all
the lands has increased many fold
Perhaps our anxious, high pressure life
Is the cause. Perhaps, too, the more
general increase and distribution Of
wealth has something TO do with it. Mr..
Gustatson finds that, contrary to ap-
pearances and it's general reputation,
Russia, the brandy drinking land, is
really the most temperate country Of
Europe. He sums up as follows.
We and:
That the two banner countries for freedom
OF commerce and industry switzsrland and
Holland-are also the most advanced in re-
strsoting the freedom Of the alcoholic drink
traffic; and thst despotio Russia comes next
That the two most educated nations-France
and Gormany-are more drunken than the
most isnOrant-RussiS- Italy and Spain.
That wealth proves 20 be a moro prolific
cause OF drunkenness than poverty the surplus
earnings being too often expended in drink.
That wine sad beer are not temperance
drinks; and that the two countries inbabited
By the chief wine and beer drinkers, and in
which the wines and beers are OF the lightest
character-vtz., France and Belgium-are the
most drunken; while Russia-alunost wholly
brandy drinking-is a relatively sober country

In 1877 the appropriation for Indian
education was $50, 900. This year it is
$2,25o 900. Public sentiment has stead
ily grown in favor of educating young In
dams and retaining them from the wild
state in which, with present surround
ings, they fall lower and lower and are
a menace to civilization. The wild oat-
tie of Texas are being gradually trans
formed into beef animals that would be
a credit to the Kentucky Blae Grass
region; In time the Indian, too, may be
transformed by education, moral and
Intellectual, into civilized man. Bat
1t will require time and the expenditure
of money, and that moaey should be ap-
propriated by the general government
There are about 90, 900 Indian youths in
the country, and tho cheapest thing to
do with them will be TO teach them the
three Rs and trades suited to them.

CAPITOL TOPICS.



The old agitation looking to the enactment. of
more stringent laws for the preservation of
forests was renewed this morning before the
He use committee on public lan,;s. when argu-
ments were made In favor of tine Paddock for
estry bill by delegation representing the

of Montreal. vice president for Canada: DR.,
Jones OF Ohio, member of the executive COM
mittee; DIR. n. W. Eggleston, Washington. re-
cording secretary, and Mr.. E. A. Bowers of

preserve the forests by creating a number of
timber reserves in the public lands throughout
the country, timber to be cut under proper
regulations.
