wedding the Oceans.

1t is remarkable fact that water
which flows naturally into the gulf Of
California and thence into the Pacific
ocean has been virtually lifted across
the backbone of the Rocky mountains,
and now, after being used for irriga-
ton, finds it's way to the gulf Of Next
co. A number of small streams on the
other side of Longs peak, which flow
into Grand lake and thence into the
Colorado river, have been diverted by q
ditch that finds its way through pass
10000 feet high into the head waters
Of the Poudre. Some 400 cubic feet
per second has thus been diverted from
the Pacific to the Atlantic slope, where
water Is used for irrigating additional
farms in Larimer county. 1t is not
strictly correct to say that this water
has been lifted across the range. But
q feat Of sinuous engineering has di-
yerted 1t, which amounts to the same
thing.-Denver Republican.

PROSPERITY IS HERE.-Anyone who
doubts it can be convinced by visiting
any OF the towns in western Iowa or
Minnesota on the new lines of the
Chicago and North Western Railway.
People in the immediate vicinity of
these towns are quick to see the advant
age and are already in advance of the
railroad, building stores, residences, ele-
vators, lumber offices, ETC., ETC., but
there is room for more. The country is
splendid, and will in all cases amply
support all lines of business and trade,
and in the most of the towns tho best
locations are still open.
Lots in any of these towns cannot
help but be paying and safe Investments,
as they are still on the market at the
original low prices.
