IRRIGATION.

Los ANGELES. Cal. Oc;. l4.-At the lrri-
cation convention yesterday he platform
committee repert ted, the report being read
fv ex-CoverBor Lionel Sheldon. 1t is in
part AS follows:
The scenes enacted recently IN the
Cherokee strip are reminder that the
pressure Of surplus population still seeks
an outlet in he west and that settlement
in that portion Of the public domain where
the rainfall is sufficient to support agrlcuI-
ture has reached its limit.
"The unsettled land now belonging to
the United States Is mostly ard or semi
arid. We confidently predict that these
arid lands are destined 10 become the seat
Of the highest civilization and the great
est average prosperity yet developed on
this continent. The development of these
lands can only be successfully attained by
national legislation.
The laws now governing waters ana
lands in number of the states aud terri
tories are inadeguste and dangerous. We
declare water in natural channels and
beds is not private property and that 1t
can neither be bought nor sold.
ave claim that the streams rising IN
one state and flowing by natural courses
through one or more other states
must be conserved and equitably di-
vided under federal authority. We
indorse the policy of forest and
storage reservations, covering mountain
watersheds. 1t is an act of simple justice
for the government to devote II portion OF
the money received for lands fit for agri-
culture without irrigation to the scien-
iific investigation of means for the recla-
nation of lands, and we earnestly urge
speedy action by congress in this direction.
'In regard to arid lands, we recommend
that national executive committee COM
posed OF five competent men from each
state and territory in the arid and semi
arid regions shall at once enter upon
careful Investigation of conditions exist
ing in each of their states and territories,
and then formulate plans looking TO the
adoption of a national policy, and upon
these reports declarations of the people
the western states may be based"

Last Tuesday night three men were sent
home for being too obstreperous. One OF the

went to Capt. Cornell. who was formerly Of
Company H.. but who was court martlailed
soon after tho violent death OF Police Captain
Berghold's daughter in Chicago some months
ago.
They told Capt. Cornell that there were sub
stitutes serving In the regiment. Capt Cor
nell laid the information before Brig
Gen. Louis Fitzgerald who communicated
with Adjutant-Gen. Porter. The result was
that two members OF Company /. substi-
tutes. were sent home from the camp on Fri
DAY night.
Col Scott. commander OF the regiment, was
averse to talking about the matter. On being
told the above story. he said:

The mon were taken in boats to Peekskill and
went thence to New York by train:

MnRner the other went to the sleeping apart
nients OF Mrs. Mcdonald and ardered her to
dress herself and children. She was COM
peed to obey. and she and her children were
forced Into n buggy and were driven away.
The alarm was sounded among the neiRhbors
by Mr.. Magner as soon as the kidnnppers had
departed. but thorough search failed to locate
or even lind n clue to them after they left the
house.
A few years ago Mrs Mcdonald made the
acquaintance of Mcdonald and in a few weeks
