 The present year has demonstrated again the necessity for complete system Of ir- rteation which shall enable the land owner to use in dry and rainless summers, the water that is so plentiful in the winters and bv tts means secure fruitful crops from what Is now worse than wasted soil. The redemption of the many millions of acres of the present arid lands of America Is task that should engage the immediate and constant attention of the authorities. both State and Federal. for its success will add promptly and irnmeasurably to our taxable wealth and population.
 The conserving of the flood waters of winter will require the investment of many millions of dollars. which. if invested by private capital. would subject the settler and land owner to imposition and extortion. We therefore. pledge our representatives in Congress to the policy of the location and construction of a system of storage reservoirs by the General Government.

We pledge all candidates to an economical administration of public affairs; to the end that taxation may be reduced to the smallest rate conqmensurate with the needs of the public welfare.
 We oppose the doctrine of the slngle tax" of which the Democratic nominee for Governor is the apostle, as being socialis- tic and anarChlStlc, ana the practlcal ings of which will be to release stocks. bonds, corporations and usurers from tax ation and place all its burdens on the farmers and owners of homesteads.
 We approve of the war revenue recently passed by Congress as being in line with the above sentiments. as 1t compels the luxuries and the corporations and aggre- gated wealth of the nation to pay a greater yet not improper share of the taxation made necessary by the than any revenue measure heretofore adopted. Its proYis- ions for the issuance of bonds wisely ex- tended the payment of the expenses of the war to include the generation who will receive greater benefit from Its results than the present, while it enables the peo- ple of America to show their patriotic faith in the country by purchasing the amount of the bonds required. a striking contrast In financial and statesmanlike policy to the selling of bonds to greedy syndicate by the last Democratic national administration.

Glory, hallelujah for the Christ is risen,
Bright the bow of promise on the cloud
doth beam;
All the gloom and darkna ss, and the
fear Of ages,
Now are gone forsver, while joy doth
reign supreme.
Shout aloud in gladness sorrow meier

The alto lie of Spirit where dwell the pure
in heart.
Earth can never tempt us from the path
of duty.
If, like sainted Mary, we choose the
better part.
Glory, hallelujah! for our Christ is risen,
Nations DER the round world. lend your
quickening aid;
Shout aloud hosanna, and, with hearts
up1ifted,
Sing of peace and gladness nevermore
