Kansas Pops are Conina.

ToPEKA, Kan, Aug. 29.-Mrs. Anna L.
Diggs, the agitator, and DIR. S. McLallin,
editor of the Advocate, the official organ
of the populist party in Kansas, have
just returned from Montrose county,
Colorado, where they have been to es-
tablish the Montrose County Co-opera-

Quoted on the Bellamy plan, and is being
promoted by the same organization that
year ago perfected arrangements for

river. about fifty miles below Washing.
ton. The Potomac location was aban-
doned, Mrs. Diggs says, because Of its
unheal,hfulness.
The Colorado colony is to be located
on government land, which will be taken
up under the homestead and desert land
act laws. Intending colonists have al
ready filed apon 5000 acres OF land and
ten men have located there and begun
work, making preparations for the re-
ception of the colonists and their fami-
lies. Other members of the proposed
colony will in few days file upon 5000
acres more.
Mrs. Diggs now claims residence in
Colorado, and says one reason why that
state was selected for her colony is that
women there have their political rights.
and that she is tired OF battling for them
elsewhere without result.

1000 of which is situated on what is
known as Payne mesa, beautiful tract
Of land. situated about twelve miles
from Delta.
The mesa land is of the character that
has given Delta the proud title of the
banner fruit county of the state, being
red, sandy loan, especially adapted to
the culture Of fruits, hence the benefits
of the enterprise can be seen at glance.
Besides this mesa there are numerous
smaller tracts OF table lands lying
higher. or land of the same character,
and at an elevation that is not prohib-
itory 10 the fruit industry. that will be
covered by the ditch. Messrs. Duke
brothers of Hotchkiss are back of the
! enterprise, and are ably assisted by cap
italists from outside. The work will be
pushed to completion as rapidly as pos
sible. and it is expected that in less than
a year the water will be running through
it. Stewart brothers OF Paonia are also
pushing the work on the Stewart ditch
from the North Fork of the Gunnison
river, this ditch will be twenty miles long
and will cover between 5000 and 5000
| acres of arabic lands, now lying too high
to be watered by or from any source
now available.
The Delta Wheel and Ditch company
will soon push the work on their ditch
and the fumes necessary. during the
coming fall. and expect to have water
running by next spring. This ditch will
derive its supply from the Gunnison.
and will water $500 acres of land within
from one TO eight miles of Delta. lying
directly north and west of town. On
what is known as Rogers mesa, or, rather
at the head Of the mesa. numerous reser-
yoir schemes are being inaugurated, and
will be this fall pushed TO completion.
for the better watering OF this fertile
mesa, which is peculiarly adapted to
fruit culture. Hence il will be seen that
Delta county is not asleep along the
lines indicated by the above. This has
been brought about, greatly, through
the extensive inquiry for irrigated lands
during the past year, ard will prove OF
untold benefit to the county in general.
The canning factory at this place has
commenced operations in a small way for
the present, and are now manufactur-
ing fruit buffers and sailing down pick
les. Later they will begin canning veg
etables and will probably start with to-
matoes within short time, as they are
now beginning to come in plentifully,
The plant is complete one in every de-
tail and will by another year be in posi-
tion to take care of any surplus fruit
and expect to do large business. They
will give employment to about seventy
five men the first year ard will increase
the force as business requires. They
have a complete tin manufacturing es-
tablishment in connection and will man
ufacture all their packages here.

carries them rapidly TO the sticking

the Adaneis tribe to join King Premph,
of Aehantee, the latter recently attacked

The affair Is regarded as indicating that
King Premph is determined to fight the

Sir Francis Scott, inspector-general of
the Gold Coast force, will not have the
walk-over anticipated.

Tt is Declared No People Could Bear
the Wrongs Endured by the
Cubans without
Protest.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-The manifesto
of the Cuban revolutionary party to the
people. of the United States was made
public today. 1t is a long document,
prepared by Enrique Jose Varona, ex-
deputy of the Spanish cortes, and re-
views the history Of the revolutionary
agitation in Cuba and the present con-
ditions on the island. The manifesto
summarizes the Cubans' need thus:
"The people of Cuba require only lib
erty and independence to become fac
tor in the prosperity and progress of civ
ilized nations, instead of an element of
disturbance and ruin. The fault lies en-
tirely with Spain. Cuba is not the Of
fender, but it is the defender of its

The Ohio City tho Choice of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor.
New YORK, Dec. 16.-Contrary to the
general expectation, the Federation of
Labor did not conclude it's work up to
the time of adjournment tonight, and a
session will be held tomorrow, at which
several matters of minor interest will be
disposed of. Today, the chIet work OF
the convention was the selection of city
at which to hold the next meeting.
When the matter was put to a vote,
Cincinnati and Nashville were the only
contestants. The Ohio city won by a
vote of 100 to 381. President Mcbride
presided all today's session.
George Francis Train made brief ad
dress on labor topics, and was followed
by Mrs. Charlotte Smith, of Boston,
president of the Woman's Rescue
League, whotold of the position of women
in the industrial world. Because of the
small money paid for labor, many of
them began life of shame. This should
be remedled and more money paid to
them.

rights. Let America, let the world de-
eide where rest justice and right"
It is set out that no people could bear
the wrongs endured by the Cubans with
out protest, or without degrading and
condemning themselves to annihilation.
The manifesto concludes:
"Spain denies the Cubans all effective
powers in their own country: condemns
them to political inferiority in their ma
tive land; confiscates the product of
their labor without giving in return
either safety, prosperity or education.
Spain has shown herself utterly incap-
able of governing Cuba, which it ex-
ploits, impoverishes and demoralizes.
Cubans, not in anger, but in despair,
have appealed to arms to defend their
rights and vindicate that eternal princI-
pie, without which every community
is in danger, the principle of justice.
Nobody has the right of oppression.
Spain oppressess us. In rebeling against
oppression we defend the right; in serv-
ing our own cause we serve the cause of
mankind. We have not counted the
number of our enemies, nor measured
their strength. We may find rain and
death few step ahead. So be it, we do
our duty. If the world is indifferent to
our cause, SO much the worse for all. A
new iniquity shall have been consumma-
ted. The principle of human solidarity
shall have suffered defeat"

The correspondent of the Pail Mall
