1T ENDED HER TROUBLE.
CESSION OF ARID LANDS.
The Plan Upon Which the West Must Be
Observation-Disclosures Of Transmissis-
sippi Congress

nAPPA SoASLocos
The following is from the Denver
News:
1.-The action of the late Transmissis-
sippi commercial congress on the mat
states wherein located was not clearly
understood.
George H.. Maxwell, of the national
irrigation association, appears to have
made an investigation of the official
proceedings, and furnishes the facts
which warrant the statement that the
resolution adopted by the Transmissis-
sippi congress was almost Identical with
that of the national irrigation congress,
and favors arid land cession only on a
basis that shall secur the rights Of set
tiers when said lands are reclaimed.
The cession of the arid lands, using the
words adopted by the irrigation on
gress at Phoenix, and again at Chey-
enne, is favored, Only upon conditions
so strict that they will insure the settle
ment of such lands by actual settlers in
small tracts and absolutely prevent
their monopoly in large bodies under
private ownership
"The Transmississippi and the ma
tional irrigation congress may be said,
therefore, to have united upon the same
policy, which is that the federal gov
eminent should build storage reservoirs
as internal improvements; that the
states should be empowered to lease all
the grazing lands and collect the reve-
nues, expanding them in state irrigation
works, and leave the title in the federal
government until actual settlement;
that wherever necessary, the federal
government should build irrigation
works to reclaim the arid public lands,
and favoring state cession.
'This is substantially in line with the
policy that the News has long favored.
The eession of the arid lands to the
states without any restrictions would
simply mean the building up of great
land and grazing monopolies. This is
the evident object of those who favor
absolute c~ession, and they are shielding
their purpose behind the word irriga-
ton. That these two representative
commercial and industrial bodies favor
only on a basis that shall pro-
tect the rights of the citizen and the
is a matter of satisfaction"

Is IT RIGHT
For An Editor to Recommend Patent
Medicines2

From Sylvan Valley News, Brevar, N. G.
1t may be a question whether the edi-
tor of a newspaper has the right to pub
licly recommend any of the various pro-
prietary medicines which flood the mar
ket, yet as a preventive of suffering we
feel it a duty to say a good word for
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy. We have known and
used this medicine in our family for 20
years and have always found it reliable.
In many cases a dose of this remedy
would save hours of suffering while a
physician is awaited. We do not believe
in depending implicitly on any medicine
for a cure, but we do believe that If a
bottle of Chamberlain's Diarrhoea Rem
edy were kept on hand and administered
at the inception of an attack much suf-
fering might be avoided and in very
many cases the presence of a physician
would not be required. Atleast this has
been our experience during the past 20
years. For sale by A. G. Ireland.

British Garrison Laughs.

London, Nov. IAN immense weight
was lifted from the public mind by brie
official dispatch, by which the continental
stories OF disaster at Ladysmith were
proved to be false. But the dispatch 1t.
self revived the anxiety of the more timid
in another quarter, as it indicated that
Gen. White, instead Of sitting quietly and
acting wholly on the defensive, as il IL
held in many quarters he ought to do, per
sists in making sorties and risking In
other Nicholsen's Mex disaster.
Generally, however, the CHEEKY tone o.
the dispatch, showing there is no anxiety
at Ladysmith as regards the ability Of tn,
beleaguered garrison to hold its own, ha'
had an excellent effect on the country
From the fact that White is able to take
the offensive and shell the Boer camp il
seems Ladysmith is not so slosely besieged
as was supposed.
Not much Importance, however, is at
tached to the shelling of the Boer laager
as the war Office has no confirmation OF
the story that the Orange Free Staters'
camp at Besters has been captured. Were
this true, 1t might have considerable er-
feet on the future attitude of the Orange
Free State, which is not so directly con-
cerned in the conflict as the Transvaal.

.BOERS ARE STILL Aggressive
LADYsMITH HAS SURRENDERED
DIR. Leyds Receives Private Advice
II Says That Whites Army Has
Capitulated-Naval Guns In Action
--ColensO Has Been Evacuated.

New York, Nov. "a cable from Brus.
sells says it is stated that DIR. Leyds has
private advices to the effect that Lady
smith has fallen before the Boer attack
and that the remnants of Whites army
are prisoners of war. The report can not
be confirmed. 1t is known that Leyds
has constantly kept in communication
with Pretoria and Tnnsvaal, despite the
fact that the British hold the wires and il
is believed that British reverses will first
be known on the continent.
Fearful Artillery Duel.
London, Nov. 5.--A dispatch from Lady
smith, dated November 2, morning, says:
During the night the Beers moved near
the British position and mounted guns in
fresh places. Meanwhile the naval guns
have been moved to more favorable posi-
tions, nearer the town and commanding
some of the Boer batteries. At g o'clock
this morning General White ordered the
bombardment of the enemy and the blue
jackets opened the ball. The Beers re-
piled vigorously. They fired straight and
some of the British were hit. A terrible
artillery duel has been proceeding for over
three hours. So far the naval guns are
the only ones that have engaged the enc
my
Another special dispatch from Lady
smith, bearing date of November 2, says
The artillery duel is proceeding splendid
ly. The British guns are firing three shots
to the Beers one,"
London, Nov. 5.-Colenso has been evac.
uated today.
This is undoubtedly most serious mat
ter for the British in Natal, as it not only
testifies to the complete investment OF
Ladysmith by the Beers, but makes the
relief of General Sir George Stewart
White an extremely difficult operation.
The railway from Ladysmith crosses Tu-
gela at Colenso, which is now in flood.
The town itself is of small Importance. 1t
is dominated by the hills on the north
side of the river and SO was untenable II
the Beers have advanced, as they seem to
have done. Moreover, only a small naval
and colonial force was stationed at Co
ienso.
The seriousness Of the evacuation, how
ever, lies in the fact that Commandant
Joubert, while completely investing Sir
George White at Ladysmlth, can seize this
rugela bridge, and if he has sufficient
troops can detach a force and send it
southwark on Pietelmaritzburg, and in
any case by destroying the bridge and rail
way can prevent any relief expedition
reaching Sir George White for some time
