Will Irrigate Scientifically,

Inc HurOnlte or April 10th says
that an important conference took
place in that city between Capt. C. S.
Fassett, state engineer Of irrigation,
DR.. VIM. Blackburn of Pierre univer-
sity, Capt. E. T. Sheldon, president of
the board of trustees of the Agricul-
tural college, and President Shannon
of the board of regents, on the subject
of practical irrigation work for the
coming season. The regents at their
February meeting made arrangements
for the establishment of "Chair of
Irrigation" in the Agricultural col
lege, with view to teaching irriga-
tiOn engineering, the analysis and
application of irrigating waters, etc,
on the theory that irrigation is a
science of great present interest to
the people of this state, the teaching
of which comes clearly within the
scope of the provisions of both state
and national legislation.
The faculty of the college have
joined in the recommendation of a
plan for immediate work for the
present season only, the entire cost of
which, teacher, expenses, bulletins
and all will be less than 81 900, and
that is provided for mainly by nation
al funds.
The teacher, it is proposed, shall do
his work from May 1st to October,
out in the fields Of those farmers who
have water and lands ready for crop.
There are probably score of these in
the state, and as many will be dealt
with as can be reached with thorough
work. All will be under the immed-
late charge of the college authorities,
and all official reports will emanate
from the school. But the owners or
operators of the lands, and. in fact.
all who at any point see fit to attend,
will receive instruction in laying out
the lands, constructing reservoirs,
ditching, applying the water to the
various crops: in short, in everything
pertaining to the theory and field
work of irrigation after the water is
secured and the land made ready.
The state engineer offers to do all in
his power to aid the matter, without
charge to the college, and it is believed
that several of the farmers having
wells will aid in the local expenses of
the instructor.
A practical irrigator, of large ex-
pericnce, has been agreed upon for
this temporary work, provided that
the trustees and regents concur.
The object of the conference was to
discuss this matter of concurrence.
Both President Sheldon of the trus-
tees, and President Shannon Of the
regents, are heartily in favor of the
plan. Engineer Fassett is enthuSi-
astic in its behalf, and DR.. Blackburn,
whose judgment is much relied upon
in college matters, regards the in
Struction and the proposed method as
perfectly in accord with the modern
college spirit.
1t is not doubted that the plan will
be approved, and the work entered
upon within few days. 1t will be a
striking feature of the college work
for the summer, and is likely to prove
of immense value to all parts of the
state.

Thinks Catholics in "a Degree Responsible

PRoHBITToN PARK, s. l., Oct g. -
Rev. DIR. McGlynn spoke before $500
people in the auditorium here yester-
lay. His subject was "The A, p. A.;
IL Causes and Cure"
DR.. McGlynn said he believed Cath
plies themselves were in degree re-
sponsible for the existence of the A.
p. A., pointing to the tendency of
many Catholic priests, particularly
those of foreign birth, TO discuss some
public questions with religious pre-
judices, as one of the causes He de-
nonnced the association by declaring
it was founded on unpatriotic and dis
honorable principles, and called on
all Catholics to pay no attention TO

Alfred n. Martin who .appo~naAa

church are diametrically opposed to

nur TWO GREAT ISSUES.

The people Of all shades of political
belief want to bear IL in mind that the
election of congressman in November
involves the economic principles of
government as affected by the finan-
cial and tariff questions The Ropub-
lican party which represents one of
the two sides, upholds and defends the
policy perpetuating a debt upon the
people by maintaining the bond sys-
TEN and contracting the volume of
currency in circulation, with gold as
the basis or standard of all values,
supplemented by high tariff for pro-
lection. The Democratic party stands
for the opposite on these great ques-
tions. IT. stands for the financial poll
icy and tariff policy gxed by the limi-
tations in the constitution-gold and
silver at a parity-as the basis of val
ues, and tariff laid at rate to pro-
vide the government with sufficient
revenue for its economical administra-
."vrv ur1 tue two great questions
and they are represented by the two
great parties. Other questions, pre-.
sented 10y other parties. are nere side
issues in comparison, in which public
interest may on may not be involved,
as such issues may be presented and
urged for adoption.
There is no citizen OF this countr,
but is directly Interested in the none,
question-its stability and equally IN
value and its sufliciency in volume to
meet the needs Of the people for all
legitimate purposes. And every con-
sumer is likewise interested in having
the burdens Of government distributed
and SO laid as to bear equitably upon
all
There is no middle around on these
great questions to be occupied by a
third or fourth party; nor is there
more than two sides to them. IL the
voter therefore, favors the policy Of
restriction in everything except public
expenditures. and in that unlimited
extrayaganee, he wants to vote the
Republican ticket But IL he wants
the government administered In the
interest and for the benefit of the
whole'people in the financial aud tax

him TO vote and that is the Demo-
cratic

DISCRIMINATION or pKorrorroN

No class Of citizens In the United
States have been so outrageously i'm.
posed upon and maltreated by the
government, under the dominion OF
the Republican party, as have the
farmers. Under the specions plea Of
protecting the home market for home
producers the farmer has been denied
free access to the markets of the
world and forced to sell his surplus on
the overstoeked market here, while
compelled to buy his supplies here ON
a market controlled largely, and In
many instances, by trusts and com
bines which have grown up as a logi.
cal result Of the policy of high protec-
uon. As Il affects the farmer high
protection is like the darkies' coon
trap il is ''sot to ketch 'em agwin and
acumin."
The wonder is that the American
farmers have borne the unequal and
oppressive burden SO long; that SO IN
telligent class OF citizens as they
should suffer themselves TO be de-
oeived into supporting by their votes a
system that has robbed them, not for
the benefit Of the government but for
the enrichment of favored few In
the east. II is not surprising that the
farmer who has upheld high protec-
tion feels like getting out aud hiring I
some one to kick him all over a quar-
ter for being such chump

A TREASURE CAVE.
Undiscovered, but I. Has Already Caused
the Death OF Several Expiorers


The people OF the town of Sabinas
and surrounding country to the south of
here are excited over the discovery of a
bandit ; cave in which a fabulous wealth
is believed to lie stored. The cave was
the rendezvous Of the famous bandit FL
Colorado and lis followers, who terror
lied all of northern Mexico about a CEN
tury ago. 1t is Situated i'll the Iguana
mountains, near Sabinas, and was first
discovered three months ago by an old
man named Cueyas, who III some man
ncr had just come into possession of a
chart giving the location of the cave.
He and three sons and four other rela-
tives started to make an exploration of
the cave. IN an inner compartment they
found large pile of silver coin of an
cient coinage. They had filled one sack
with the money when they We're all
overcome.with the fire damp with which
the cave was filed, and only four of the
party succeeded in reaching the open air
alive
Old man Cuevas was taken very sick
as the result of his terrible experience
and few days ago died. On his death
bed he confided TO the priest the secret
of the cave, and a party of explorers
was at once organized TO visit and Sc
cure the treasure. Ii was headed by Sill
verio CARA, a prominent citizen of Sa-
binas. They were all driven out of the
cave by the noxious gases and two of
the members of theparty have died from
the effects Of the poison which they in
L. l.
ton had become public, and the authori-
ties have placed guards at the cave to
guard the treasure uIt fill further explora-
tons can be made the general govern
ment has been notiftd of the situation.
