Already Bearing Frllit.

The initiatory steps that Sherman
county has taken toward irrigation has
began bearing fruit. A great
many investors have their eyes upon
the advantages to be derived from an
investment in these lands which have
already began to appreciate under the
magic of its iTrigating possibilities.
Many lands that are held by specula-
tors will come in the market ia so and
40 acre tracts as irrigabie lands. Some
of these large land holders have had
their agents here this winter looking
into the feasibility of putting in plants
on every quarter belonging to them.
One Of these agents, representing an
investor who owns several thousand
acres in this county, had inspected the
irrigated districts of every section of
the west before his arrival and was
confident that irrigation could be sue
cessfully practiced here. His client
was contemplating improving his hold
ing and putting them under irrigation
for the purpose Of renting or selling
them. Other spectators are planning
to adopt the same course. This wonld
bring under cultivation large tracts of
land, which under the old condition of
things would probably lie idle for years
to the detriment of adjacent farms, and
more than double the population Of
the county.
Besides this it has had the effect of
bringing back many who can see in
irrigation the means of making at least
comfortable living in drouthy years
upon the very farms which they desert
ed but short time ago believing them
to be valueless. Others who have
never resided here, but have purchased
farms in this county because they we're
cheap, have concluded that irrigation
farming in the west is better than pay
inge xhOrbitantrentin the east are com
ing here to settle.
The benefits of this infant enterprise
will never be fullyrealized, but coming
prosperity will always be dated from
the introduction of irrigation.

THE BAND CONCERT.
A Good sized Audience GTeets Their First
Effort.


Effort.
Tuesday night the Goodland Military
Band gave their initial monthly con-
cert. The house was we'll filed and
greeted the boys with bursts of ap-
plause. The opening overture was a
dream, one to tickle the palate Of the
most exacting. The cornet solo
"Shubert's Serenade"-was exception
ally we'll rendered by George Maxwell.
The singing of the double quartstte
was very fine and received the most ex.
plosive applause of the evening. Theeu-
phonium solo, "Crown Jewel" " was rem
dered in q masterful manner by Mr..
Jordan. In Joy to the World" a
potpOurri, the audience heard the
finest music ever rendered in the state
west of the Kaw The finale, "Glory
Halleujah," was a novel and striking
piece, the audience singing the words
of the old, familiar song, "John Browns
Body" while the band played the &C
compartment.
Taken as a whole the concert was
without a flaw, the expression and
finish given by each player being a
credit to the director and a honor 10
the city.
The next concert is to come off next
mouth and those who were present at
this one are already looking forward to
the next one.

A Fine Rain.

Early Monday morning a drizzling
rain set in and continued until late
Tuesday night. The soil was in good
condition to receive the moisture and,
although no very great amount of
water fell, it was as beneficial as twice
the amount under less favorable con-
conditions. The whole county is now
more thoroughly wet up than any time,
at this season, since the "big crop" year
of 1891, and as each passing day brings
spring closer the favorable outlook is
proportionally augmented.
The years of 1891 and 1892 were very
similar in regard to weather and in
those years Sherman took its place at
the head of the banner counties of the
state, and today some of our farmers
are yet feeding grain that was grown in
those years of plenty.
The favorable weather this winter,
the hard freezing which has put life iu-
to the soil, has raised the spirits of our
farmers and businessmen and the late
rain, an unusual thing at this time of
the year, has but confirmed the belief
that 1895 will prove more fruitful than
any preceding year in the history of
Sherman county.

Prehistoric Irrigation.

From the many existing remains of
ancient canals and reservoirs that
could have been built for no other pur-
pose it is clear that irrigation was prac-
ticed at a very early date in the re-
gions now being reclaimed by its means
10 America. The date Of these works
was so far removed from the prehis-
toric. So systematic we're the plans of
the race that made use of them and on
such vast scales were they carried out
that the conclusion is irresistible that
they were the work of a highly deYelo-
p ID and otherwise unrecorded people,
nving here before the savage Indians
of the plains and mountains or even
the Zunis. None but men possessed of
great energy, scientific knowledge and
trained skill could have created them.
In more than one locality the civilized
engineers of today find that these old
works were laid out on the very best
possible lines-lines that are followed
perforce in laying out the reservoirs
aud canals that are now being con-
Structed.

The House Passes be Irritation Bin.

Topeka, Feb. 21.-The action of the senate last
night in appointing a committee to revise the
calender will soon be followed by the house and
there was much talk among the members this
forenoon on that line. The house thus far has
not disposed of more than 200 of the 973 bills
which have been introduced by its members.
Some of these are worthy measures and would
pass if they could be reached.
The house this forenoon passed bills exempt
ing the property of 6, A, R. posts from taxation,
and establishing G, A. R. museum at the state
house.
The committee irrigation bill passed the house
this morning with only % dissenting votes. The
senate will give it favorable consideration.
Mr.. Steme introduced in the senate today a
bill providing that the products of the penitenti-
airy shops shall be branded convict labor" and
prohibiting coal mining at the prison except for
state institutions.
The senate and house conference committee on
the appellate court question have agreed that a
bill should be reported placing the appointing
power In the hands of the governor, but with the
understanding that he would appoint three Re-
publicans, two Populists and one Democrat.

Pauper Pay in America.

The much-talked-of ''pauper wages"
of Europe suffer little in comparison
with the "pauper wages" of the United
States. Carnegie has secured a $780,
600 armor plate contract with Japan
The Bethlehem iron works has a con
tract to furnish Russia with 100000
worth of the same material. The con-
tracts were awarded the companies
despite the fact that IA other manufac-
turers, representing England, France,
Germany and Italy, were bidding for
the work. Here the "pauper labor" of
the old world was underbidden by the
'pauper labor" of the United States. If
these contracts had been intelligently
and honestly made, and with a regard
for the payment of fair wages, they
would prove a blessing to labor; but
the action of the Carnegie company in
reducing wages speaks for itself the
blessing it will bring to workingmen.-
