BIG CANAL.

CATION Purposes.

It Will he Fifty-fve Miles Long For Irri.
CATION Purposes.
Ex-senator Eugene S. Ives Of New
York, who is we'll and %favorably known
in Washington, is now a resident of
Arizona and is in Washington with Mr..
James A. Fleming, a prominent citizen
OF that territory, in connection with a
big irrigation enterprise.
Mr.. Ives said: "We propose to cut a
canal so miles in length, beginning at
a point So miles above Yuma and fol-
lowing the course Of the Colorado river,
which will afford sufficient water to If
rigate 100, 900 acres. The soil is natu-
rally Of great fertility and only needs
water to make it as productive AS II
on earth. We can raise lemons. oranges,
olives, apricots, figs and in fact all the
fruits that have added so much to Cali
fornia's wealth and can get them to
market several weeks in advance of the
products Of that state.
The great advantage we have over
California Is III our superior water sup
ply, the Colorado furnishing an mex
haustible quantity at all seasons of the
year. The region tributary to Yuma is
destined TO become Americas winter
dollhouse. The summer climate, which
has been so often the theme Of jest and
story, is really nothing like as bad as
the ian make it out, for the air
Is SO pure and dry that II doesn't mind
the heat when the thermometer shows
100 as much as the people Of Washing
ton and New York do when the figures
are far below that mark. "-Washing-

SURPRISED BY FARMERS.
Manitoba Agricuiturists Demand Radical
Tariff Reductions


Tariff Reductions
WINNIPEG, Feb. 1.-THE agricul.
tural delegation that appeared before
the dominion tariff commission made
strong demands for material reductions
of duties on necessaries of life, farm
implements, clothing, etc. The dele
CATION was largely composed of sup
porters of the present government and
made q threat that unless the govern.
ment carried out the pledges made
prior to the elections it would speedily
be hhrled from power.
The farmers representatives were
very outspokcn. Their spokesman,
who had been especially invited to APP
pear before the commission by Premier
Greenway, a close political friend of
Premier Laurier, was extremely frank.
He said that Laurier and colleagues be-
fose election had characterized the pro-
lection policy as legalized robbery, but
now were trying to hedge and promis.
ing manufacturers that their interests
would not be molested.
This" said the speaker, will not
do. If the tariff limb of the fiscal pol
icy is diseased, we do not want it am.
putated toe by toe. but removed by one
cutting. If the Liberal government has
not the heart to do this, we will get q
new doctor speedily. There are hun.
dreds of US in this country who have
voted and worked for years to get
tariff reforms, and if we are now to be
deceived, our resentment will know no
limit or mercy. We want no trucking
half measures. We havs borne the
burden Of taxation too long and our pa
thence is almost exhausted"

thus provided, thus preventing the
treasury from losing any part of its

establishing a distinction between men

WILL. DECLARE WAR.
Threat of King George i'm Case Greek
Ports Are BlocLaded.

London, April 2.-The Vienna cor
respondent of the Times telegraphs
that it is no secret that King George of
Greece has declared that blockade of
the Greek coast will be Immediately fol-
lowed by declaration of war against
Turkey. Any doubt that all the powers
have assented to blockade TO the gulf
of Athens has been finally removed,
but the details of the scheme are now
incomplete. The admirals of the inter
national feet in Cretan waters will de-
eide whether and when the blockade
will be effected. 1t is obvious that it
cannot be established Immediately, as
the squadrons must be increased. This
implies delay of several days. All
the dispatches received here from spe-
cial correspondents concur that if the
step be taken it's inevitable result will
be that the Greek troops in Thessaly
will cross the frontier into Macedonia.
Constantinople, April 2.-The diplo-
matte representatives of the powers
here have received instructions from
their respective governments to open
negotiations with the porte for a def
mite withdrawal of the Turkish troops
from the island of Crete and negotia-
tons with that end in view are accord
ingly in progress.
