turn the desert into a garden and sup
| plant barrenness with fertility and as
| If by magic change the parched and
| thirsty plains into harvest fields pro-
| ducing profitable crops? These changes
are ever a delight to the human eye
| An entertaining address of welcome
was given by Governor Richards, who
| briefly reviewed the agricultural his
tory of the State and outlined the work
which the Congress might take up OF
special interest to Wyoming. He
spoke of our natural resources, re-
viewed the mining situation, the rise
and decline Of the open range industry
and the substitution Of the granger for
the large stockman. One hundred OF
the former now took the place Of one
of the latter and the change was ben
| eficent. Irrigation on a small scale
had always been successful, but large
investments Of capital backed up by
scientific skill and strong hope, had not
yet succeeded in paying a dividend
The reason for this must be determined
by these gatherings Of neighbors, fol
the smaller streams were already dried
up. Land is exceedingly plentiful, and
the water in the larger streams had
as yet hardly been touched. The
problem was one involving not only
the settlement Of the arid West but
was one of great interest to the more
densely populated East, which must
have an outlet for it's surplus popula-
ton.
Governor Richards address exhibited
a thorough knowledge Of the agricult-
| ural problem Of the West, and was
heartily applauded.
| Responses to the Governors address
were made by Messrs. Logan of Ari-
zona Professor Churchill of Kansas,
| Judge Emory Of Kansas, Allen and
Dougherty Of Nebraska, DR.. Young OF
Utah and Mr.. Field of Iowa.
These responses We're all witty and
entertaining, and furthermore showed
the earnestness of purpose which an
imated the delegates.
| Following the responses committees
on Permanent Organization and Gre
dentials were appointed, one from each
State represented.
An encouraging feature Of the Con-
gress was found in the presence Of all
officers as follows: President, j. M.
Carey Of Wyoming; Secretary Frost of
| Minneapolis; Assistant Secretary Nc
| Cutcheon, and Reading Clerk Maxson
| Of Nebraska.
| The evening session began with the
reports Of the Committee on Creden-
| tials and Permanent Organization,
which was adopted, and the following
permanent officers were elected: Pres
| ident, Joseph M. Carey, Wyoming;
First Vice President, DR.. S. B. Young,
| Utah; Second Vice President, 8. A.
| Cochran, South Dakota; Third Vice
President, S. NJ. Knox Illinois; 0. A.

PASSENGER AGENTS MEET.

Chicago, ILL.,, Jan. 13.-General Pas
eenger Agents of the Southern roads met
here to-day for the purpose of discussing
the decentralization in rates in their ter
ritory. For some time all of the roads
have been greatly troubled by secret rate
cutting, which has interfered very much
with their regular tariffs. The winter
tourist business this season has not been
as heavy as was thought probable, and
the competition for the business there
has been very keen. The roads will pass
a resolution to restore and maintain rates
and see what effect that will have, De-
fore taking any other action.

ert Hancock, president OF the Atlantic
and North Carolina railroad, Republican
boss of Craven county, is charged with
most foul aud unnatural crime, the
debauchery Of his wife's niece, Miss
Abbott, who lived in his home and to
whom he stood in the relation Of parent.
The details are too revolving for publ
cation in a decent newspaper, but the
allegations are made by Miss Abbott
herself and her family. Public indigna-
ton over the affair is so great at New
bern, that Hancock is in danger of per
sonal violence. If the charges are even
partially substantiated land they appear
to be entirely true) Hancock deserves a
felon's cell, if not the hangman's halter
That such a man should occupy such
high position is disgrace to the State.
