EDWIN ]. kERWIA'S ADDRESS
The Philadelphia Standard Pays Him
 Deserved Compliment.

Mr. Edwin J. Kerwin, former Pine Bluff boy but now of Arkadel- phia, is taking an active part in politics in that town just now. He recently delivered an address at Democratic rally and iu speaking of 1t the Standard says:
 "At tbe conclusion Of C. Me Milisn's address, that gifted and talented orator. M. Edwin J. Ker win, was called upon. Like Col. McMillan, he needed no motion to cause him 10 lend his voice ard vote for the cause ot the party of princi- pie, as against tbat of plutocracy and pelf. Mir, Kerwin, in bis open. irg, stated that his only regret was that he could not speak from expert ence; but that he would feel that he had entertained and pleased the audience if his remarks were accorded the same attention as those of the veteran Democrat, Col. McMiIlan. As Mir. Kerwin, in appearance, is young man, he said that though his remarks would not be clothed in the mantle of age, which is ever an accepted symbol of wisdom, still he deemed no apology necessary for his youth. His forc- ible arguments aud picturesque way be has of presen ting matters political, made bis address very able.
 He said, among other things, that he believed like Grover Cleveland, that in the election tobe held in No uember, the conscience of each man should be his sole dictator and guide. He dealt at length on the tariff or "pIain duty flop of McKin- icy, regarding Porto Rico, then with the Philippines. Mr. Kerwin received q hearty applause when he gave the reason why William J. Bryan should be elected President Space will mo- permit the giving of them, numbering twenty four in all Ills last reason WAS because Bryan is the empodinent of and stands for the perpetuity of those princi- ples enunciated in the Declaration of Independence "

Lincoln, Nov. 23-Attorney General
Smyth will file Il motion before the SUI
preme court for rehearing in the
case decided Wednesday against the
state board of transportation. Many
lawyers are of the opinion that while
the decision of the court establishes
the fact that the board as at present
constituted is without authority, it
does not necessarily abolish it. The
original act creating the board OF
transportation was passed at the leg
islative session of 1885. AT the ses-
sion two years later it was so amended
as to make it in many respects new
law. 1t was on these amendments
that the question of constitutionality
was based. and the claim advanced is
that the original act of 1885 is not
nullified by the decision.

FUTURE OF THE ARID WEST.
Gathering at Chicago Discussing Proper
Preservation of Water supply-Letter
From Vice President-Elect Roosevelt.
Views of General Miles.

Chicago, Nov. 23.-Vice President
elect Theodore Roosevelt, in a letter
read last night before the national irri-
CATION congress. placed himself on rec
ord as heartily in sympathy with the
aims of that organization.
His letter contained his practical
promise of assistance in the effort
which will be made frorJ now on for
government aid to irrigation and an
appeal to all "far-sighted citizens" to
interest themselves in movement
which will benefit the entire nation.
Governor Roosevelt's letter was di-
rectly in line as regards its point of
view with the feeling of the congress
as developed in discussions which had
lasted all through the day. 1t was
the paper on the construction of great
storage reservoirs by the government
for the general use of entire districts
by farmers, read by Captain Hiram
Chittenden, engineer corps, U. S. A.,
which started the discussion, and per-
i haps half of the delegates to the con-
gress found chance to support the
project with strong words. A letter
from Lieutenant General Miles was
very enthusiastic toward the same
end
The congress believes that it is as
much the duty of the government to
take measures to prevent drought as
/ it is to prevent the filling up of harbors.
1t believes it is just as real duty for
I the government to open up vast areas
of arid land as to provide new courses
for shipping 1t believes further that
/ the time for action is ripe, that the
ground has been we'll prepared, and
/ that all efforts should be concentrated
during the coming session of congress
4 to secure satisfactory legislation.
At the afternoon session Colonel III
4 B. Maxson, secretary of the congress
submitted his annual report He stat
I ed that the membership of the associa
tion now comprises nearly 1000 of the
