RED RIVER DRAINAGE.
Plans OF Commission Appointed
Under Law of Last Winter.

Plans OF Commission Appointed
Under Law of Last Winter.
At the last session of the legislature
bill was passed creating what is desig-
mated as the Red river drainage COLI
mission. 1t was related at the time the
measure was under discussion in the
senate that there were many of the
water courses tributary TO the Red
river that had been stopped up owing
10 repeated prairie fires and the like.
The result was that the water that
should have flowed into the river was
backSet, and the richest and most fer
tile portions of the valley were rendered
useless for tillage purposes. The COM
open up these courses, and drain the
lands. This commission was TO have
held meeting at the Office of the gov
ernor yesterday, hut that official was at
his home in Alexandria, and the meet
ing was postponed until today or tomor-
row.
Mr.. Miller and Mr.. Valentine, of the
commission. state that they have COM

OF procedure. This will be reported to
the meeting. and then it is likely that
the work will at once be undertaken
aud carried to completion.
Mr.. Valentine SAID yesterday that he
thought that the meeting will be held at
. clock this morning. THE PROPOSE
ton will be made" said he, ITO adyer-
iise first for proposals to drain some ten
miles i'll the Sand Hill river district,
and these bids will probably be opened
before the middle OF September. Then
another plan that is about perfected is
to drain eight miles on the Tamara OK
river in Marshall county. We estimate
that this work will open up
for cultivation from 10000 TO
100000 acres of the most fertile
lands in the state. Moreover we expect
TO be able TO complete this work the
present season. In the Sand Hill river
we will do the work with dredgeS, and
there is plenty OF water to float the boat
that will be necessary for the draining.
When | explain that the river is five
feet deep and about twenty feet wide,
and that the current is quite strong, you
can have some conception of the over
flow, for at a certain point all this water
is lost aud spreaus out over the adjacent
country
I'VE will have great difficulty with
the Tamarach river district" pursued
the commissioner. This work will have
to be done With ordinary road graders
ana scrapers. We will cut a channel
through the INSTRUCTED portion, and
then there is little probability of re-
currence of the present ditficulii S"

MUST PAY LICENSES
All Elevators in the State Will Be
Compelled to Obey the NewIaw.

All Elevators in the State Will Be
Compelled to Obey the New Law.
The so-calied Peterson bill, regulating
the elevators and warehouses at interior
points i'll the state, is now in full opera
ton and effect. There are something
like LOCO such elevators in the state.
The new law compels all elevators
located on the rights of way of railroads
in the state to take out licenses and
come within state control. OF this 1000
about 800 have taken out licenses in
accordance with the provisions OF the
law. Out of the 200 that are not licensed,
quite large proportion of the owners
+ have not applied for license in view of
the fact that they are not positive
as to whether they will operate, owing
to the difficulties of the present time in
procuring capital necessary to conduct
the business. The remaining houses
are either operating in willful
violation of the law, or through gnor-
ance of the provisions requiring
licenses. The railway and warehouse
commission expected that by the 1st of
September nearly all of these derelict
houses will have taken out licenses. 1t
is understood that the commission,
charged with the enforcement of the
law, will send out in few days two or
three representatives to look up and re-
port. the names of all warehouse men
who have failed to obey the provisions
of the law, after which the commits
sion will determine the course of action
to be taken to compel conformity
with the law IN all its details. While
this only affects small proportion of
/ the elevators and warehouses of the
state, owing to the pretty general CON-
| pliance with the law. the drastic course
| that the commission is certain to pur-
sue will create a great deal of excite
ment.

A Man Sleeping In the Street.

A well dressed man leaning against

sleep Of the just created a great deal Of
interest in busy London street the
other day. He sat on a box which he
had been carrying.
Evidently, being suddenly overcome
with drowsiness, he had placed the box
on the curbstone, and sitting down upon
it had fallen asleep. To those who sue
ceeded in getting close enough to the
man his gentle, restful snore dispelled
the fear that he might be dead. The
side Of his face was exposed and be-
trayed no sign Of intoxication. It was
the Judgment of every one that he was
sober, in good health and simply taking
quiet snooze.
When the crowd became so deep as to
threaten blockade, the supposed sleeper
suddenly jumped to his feet, mounted
his box, and fourishing couple of bot
ties over his head e1cl2;med:

Siam Would Like to Know just What
What Would Be Satisfactory.
LONDON, July 26.-The correspondent
Of The Times at Bangkok telegraphs
that the Siamese foreign minister, in
replying to the statement of M. Pavie,
the French minister, that Slams an
swer to the French ultimatum was not
satisfactory, expresses surprise and re-
greet that the abdication by Siam of her
sovereignty, not only over that part Of
her territory in dispute, on the left
bank of the Mekong river, but also over
Stungstreng and Khone which are in
disputably Slams by treaty, is
not considered fully in accordance
with the requirements of France.
The Siamese minister therefore urges
more strenuously than ever that France
define exactly what she considers her
rights in AMMAN and Cam bodia, and
on the left bank of the Mekong river.
The correspondent adds that the
Siamese government has offered to pro-
vide pilots to take the French gunboats
Lutin and Comete down the Menam
river from Bangkok.
These pilots were asked for by M.
Pavie when he notified the Siamese
government that he would leave the
city on Wednesday to go on board the
warship Inconstante. 1t appears GER
tain now that M. Povie will hasten his
departure. It is said that the French
minister, on one of the gunboats, and
accompanied by the other, will go down
the river during the evening.

Governor Lewelling Sympathizes
With the Strikers But Will Pre-.

The Entrance of Negroes In the Mines
Will Virtually Break the
Strike.

TOPEKA, Kan, July 26.-Eleven com.
panies of militia have been ordered to
be in readiness to start for the scene of
the miners troubles. The situation is
critical.
Lieutenant Governor Daniels, who is
major general of the Kansas national
guard, has returned from the district
and made verbal report to Governor
Lewelling. The governor promptly
turned over the command of the state
militia to Daniels, and two companies
were ordered to be in readiness in three
hours notice.
The governors opinion is that there
will be no outbreak in the strike dis
tricts. In an interview with the United
Press correspondent the governor said
that If the negroes were put to work in
the mines, and were not interfered
with, that it would practically end the
strike, by the complete defeat of the
strikers. He unhesitatingly declared
himself to be in sympathy with the
strikers, because he believed they had
been dealt with unfairly. but, he said,
as the law was against them, he would
not permit the use of violence.
