EUROPEAN POWERS EMPLOY
DILATORY TACTICS in CHINA

uated by the single purpose of ending
the present unsatisfactory conditions
in the celestial empire.
Yet the fact remains that at least
two powers have been pursuing at Pc
kin the most obstructive tactics and
have evidently favored policy de
signed to provoke the Chinese to
armed resistance.
An important point about these latest
declarations is that the powers express
ly state that they desire such II solu-
ton of the Chinese troubles as can be
adopted by any imperial governments
without danger to its safety.
Minister Conger is directed to urge
upon his colleagues the necessity of
agreeing upon demands which will be
reasonably certain of acceptance by
the Chinese. The President and Secre-
tary Hay appreciate the weakness of
the imperial government and do not
want the shadow of imperial authority
to disappear as n result of the machi-
nations of powerful princes and off
cials.
The suggestion for n settlement of
the question by an international con-
ference, to be participated in by repre-
sentatives of the powers and 10 be held
in some European capital. has been re
vived, but among conservative officials
1t is believed that an even better plan
would be the policy of referring the
matter to The Hague court of arbitra-
ton.

KRUGER'S VISIT
EXCITES THE FRENCH

Paris, Nov. 24.-''Vive Kruger" and
'Down with the English" rang yester-
day from the throats of thousands Of
people at the stations along the route
from Marseilles to Dion. President
Krugcr's journey was one grand Ova-
ton. Multitudes frenzied with enthus
iasm cheered the great Boer leader at
every stopping place.
In spite of every precaution by the
French government. the visit of Pres
ident Kruger has already taken on
grave political Importance. The anti
English feeling is rapidly approaching
the danger point. The nation has been
stirred to Its profundest depths, and
the responsible heads of the govern
ment may find themselves utterly un-
able to withstand the demands of an
excited people.
Especially significant is the stand
that will be taken by the army. French
officers mingled with the crowds and
Joined in the cheering.
Everything depends upon the events
in the French capital. All Europe
awaits the result Of the demonstration.
President Kruger will arrive in Paris
in the morning, and probably the scenes
of yesterday will be re-enacted in far
greater magnitude. Preparations have
been made by the police TO prevent any
demonstrations hostile to England, but
it is doubtful If the crowds can be con-
trOlled.

WE MUST SAVE THE FORESTS
AND STORE THE FLOODS

Colonel II. D. Maxson, the secretary.
In his report, stated that the member
ship of the association now comprises
nearly 1000 of the leading mercantile
and manufacturing concerns Of the
United States and extends from Cali
fornia to Maine and from Minnesota
to Texas.
A paper on "The Wyoming Law; n
Solution of All Water Problems" was
read by Fred Bond, state engineer of
Wyoming. This was followed by an
address on Irrigation and the Sugar
Beet" by Herbert Myrick, editor of
the Orange Judd Farmer.
1.-The Sugar Beet as Profitable
Arid Land Crop" was the topic dis
cussed by Hugh NJ. Wiley, chemist of
the United States Department of Agri-
culture.
Thomas Knights of Kansas City
spoke ON "rhe Public Lands and Their
Reclamation and Settlement"
Papers were read on Irrigation Re
sources of Montana" by Professor S.

dent of the Farmers Canal Company
of Billings. Montana.
HC was "'h
filed when President Meade called the
night session to order. A letter from
Governor Roosevelt was read in which,
among other things, he said:
Il believe to the last point in the
vital necessity of storing the floods and
preserving the forests, especially
| throughout the plains and the Rocky
Mountain region. The problem of the
development of the greater West Is in
part n problem of irrigation. | nat
urally believe in n government giving
generous aid to the movement for it Is
not possible, and If 1t were possible, it
would not be wise, to have this stOrag"
work done merely through private
ownership.
'Without pretending to outline def
! nitely working scheme. l venture to
point out that without the attainment
of the following objects your plans
must measureably fail:
"First-Government study of the
streams upon which your plans de
pend.
Second - Government construction
and control of great irrigation plants.
"Third-Thc preservation of forcs,s
by the extension of the forest reserve
system and hence of government con
troll of the forests.
'Fourth-National protection and use
Of the forests under expert supervision.
"Fifth-l urge you 10 see to 1t that

bilities'

Booker T. washingtnn'. Plan.

Boston, Nov. 24.-Booker T. Wash
ington said last night regarding the re-
cent lynching of II negro in Colorado
that the same class of people who be-
gan to break the law by lynching n
negro will soon learn TO break the law
by lynching white man.
Il think" said Mr.. Washington,
that the Colorado lynching emphasizes
the fact that the only way TO stop such
outbreaks is, in the first place, to bring
about such general education, not only
in books, but in industry and thrift,
as will make Odious such acts as that
which provoked the lynching fever, and
then to educate public sentiment up to
the point where people of all parts of
the country will see that we only can
have the highest civilization if the law
is enforced regardless of race or color
Wherever people begin to lynch for
one kind of offense they are soon led
into the temptation of lynching for
any other kind of offense. Aside from
the injustice that is perpetrated upon
the individual put to death without
legal trial, we must bear in mind that
there is a permanent degradation
which comes to the individual who
takes part in and witnesses such an
outrage as occurred in Colorado"

Chicago. Nov, 23.-The National 1rri-
cation Congress got down to business
yesterday. President Elwood Mead of
Wyoming presided.
Scipio Craig of California made a
motion that the motto of congress be
"Save the forests and store the floods,
and that committee on resolutions De
instructed to draft n memorial setting
forth the objects of the congress ana
showing the Importance OF the recia-
nation of the arid lands in the United
States and to report on saturday.
On motion of Ex-Governor j. Brad
ford Prince of New Mexico committees
on credentials, organization, rules and
resolutions were appointed, consisting
of men from each state and territory
represented. Captain Hiram NJ. Chit
tenden of the United States engineer
corps was then introduced and spoke
on "Relations of the General Govern
ment to Reservoir Construction"
He said in part: 1.-THE storage Of the
waste flow of its streams becomes an
Indispensable condition 10 the highest
development of the Western country.
at Is evident that Congress Is not
unfavorably disposed toward the gov
ernment construction OF reservoirs, but
will be absolutely opposed to going
into the irrigation business. Here then
Is one rock which we should try to
avoid lest it cause us shipwreck. The
reservoir question must be divorced
from the irrigation question so far as
active aid from the general govern
ment is concerned.
"These two principles should be CIV
en- corporate form in the resolutions
which this association may present to
Congress in asking for government aid
in the construction of storage reser-
voirs.
"First-That the water so stored shall
be for the free use Of The people, sub
ject only to such laws and regulations
as may be in force in the states
through which they flow.
"Second-That, in thus advocating
the construction of reservoirs by the
federal government to conserve the
waste waters of the ard regions, this
association disclaims any purpose of
drawing the government into n policy
of constructing irrigating works or of
enacting legislation for the control of
the waters used in irrigation. as In its
Judgment such matters should be left
exclusively to the states at present.
And in proposing law for the ap-
preparation of money t. build any res
ervoir. particularly the first which may
be built, 1t should contain the follow
ing provisos:
'First-That the water so stored
shall be for the free use of the people
and shall be released under regulations
to be established by The secretary of
war Tor interior. as the case may bel.
"Second-That the waters so released
shall, after flowing of the government
reservoir property. become n part of
the stream In its neutral condition. and
be subject to the laws and regulations
of the state or states through which
they flow.
'Third-That the construction of this
reservoir. or of any other that may
hereafter be built. shall not In any
way commit the government to a pol
icy of constructing irrigation works.
nor of controlling the distribution of
the waters which flow from such res
ervoirs.

Washington, Nov. 24.-Assurances of
Z particularly gatifying and important
character, declaring their pupose to act
conjointly and in harmony to effect
prompt settlement of the Chinese ques-
ton, We're to-day given the United
States by Russia, Germany, Great Bri-
tain, France and japan. These declar-
atoms of the five powers are due to the
diplomacy of the President and Secre-
tary Hay.
Developments in Pekin had shown
conclusively that none of the ministers
were alive to the Importance of formu-
lating demands with which the Chinese
government could comply. PROPOSE
tions were being made, especially by
representatives of the European pow
ers, whose policies We're regarded with
suspicion, the adoption of which could
only result in rejection by the Chinese
government and the resumption of hos
dlities.
1t was therefore decided that in the
interest of a prompt settlement it was
desirable to appeal to the powers d.
rect. An identical note was therefore
addressed to the interested govern
ments In Europe and Japan and the
correspondence which followed cul-
minated in the assurances referred to.
These assurances repeat the declara-
tions which made connection with the
endorsement of the nglo-German
agreement and would seem on their
face to show that the powers are act

NATIONAL IRRIGATION
CONGRESS- PROCEEDINGS

Chicago, Nov. 24.-Trouble arose in
the meeting of the Irrigation Congress
yesterday afternoon, when the report
of the committee on permanent organ
ization was presented.
IT named Buffalo for the session OF
1901 and this causes so vigorous pro-
test from the western delegates that Il
decision was delayed until to-day.
The report honored Colorado by nam
ing Thomas f. Walsh as the next presi-
dent of the national association.
Frederick V. Coville. botanist. of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture, spoke about New Crops for Arid
Lands He said in part:
'In Transforming the plains and the
deserts from purely grazing region
to one in which crop growing shall as
sumo an important position, both the
ory and costly experience indicate that
the varieties of fruits, cereals and
other crops most successful in the
humid East are failures in the arid
West. The most pronounced successes
in arid land agriculture have come
from crops introduced into the United
States from those ports of the world
in which the culture of arid lands has
been practiced for centuries.
"About 1888 Kansas began the culti-
vation of n cereal and forage plant
from Egypt and India known as
Kaffir corn. In 1893 the value of the
Kansas crop was SG53,OOO in 1896, 3d.
$4,000; in 1897. S42T5,O 900, and in 1898,
S5,S42,O 900. The Turkey wheat now so

pices of the government are under way.

DOM PAUL RECEIVES A GRAND
OVATION AT MARSEILLES

Marsellcs. Nov. 22.-Yesterday
proved n trimph for Mr.. Kruger, such
as even the BOer delegates and his
most ardent admirers failed to antici-
pate. The delirium of enthusiasm
which marked every step of his prog
ress from the time hr landed until the
