Signs of Victory.

Four years ago forty-eight more elec-
torial votes would have elected Bryan.
To be elected now he must get that many
votes in addition to those he had in 1896,
and if he loses any of his former votes
he must get enough in addition to make
up for the loss.
In 1896 several states on each side were
very evenly divided. A slight. drift
would have sent them over the line.
Everything depends now, therefore, on
the direction of the drift. A small
majority in a state is safe if the drift is
in the direction of making it secure.
The Vermont election indicates that
the drift there is toward Bryan. The
democrats are indisputably stronger in
Vermont now than they were four years
ago. What light does that throw on the
possibilities in other states?
The republican vote in Vermont has
fallen off about 10 per cent as compared
with the corresponding election in 1896,
while the democratic vote has increased
about l6 per cent.
Indiana has 10 electoral votes. In 1896
the republican vote there was 1913, ,754,
and the democratic 305,573. If the
republicans lose 10 per cent and the
democrats gain i6per cent the epublican
vote in Indiana this year will be 291 1873
and the democratic 954,573, leaving a
democratic plurality of 63,083.
A similar process would give the
democrats Delaware by AIT, West Vir-
ginia by 1882, Kentucky by 56,398,
Ohio by 8O,5Oi, and North Dakota by

CHAPTER vi.

One morning in the month of July,
when Ronald returned from his to-
bacco field, he found score or more
mountaineers in the front yard. They
were discussing an awful crime that
had been committed about dawn that
day. Mrs. Telplay, widow who lived
alone in cottage at the foot of the
mountain, was found brutally muir
dered. It had been generally known
that she kept quite sum of money
in an old hair trunk under her bed,
having always refused to take the adj
vice of her friends to put her savings
in moro secure place. The trunk
was found to have been split open by

and then Mrs. Lancaster felt shudder

Evelyn was thinking of look she had
seen in Ronald Fanshaw's eyes as they
sat alone that morning.
At this juncture the couple saw Capt.
Wrinkle sauntering down the veranda
towards them.
He is looking for you," said the
widow; shall 1 leave you alone with
him?"
Evelyn's voice sounded harsh when
she replied:

plain that he wants to have It out with
me. l think can manage him."
Mrs. Lancaster rose us the officer drew

at Wrinkle, to whom she had nodded.
AS she moved away the captain start

cupant, but Evelyn promptly stood up
and leaned against the balustrade. Her
action was greeted with grunt Of dis
approval on the part of the young man.

The Census of Irrigation.

The preliminary work of the census office in collecting data relative to the arid and sub-humid regions shows that during the past ten years vast areas have been reclaimed by irrigation, both by ditching from running streams and drilling for subterranean waters.
 Where only few years ago the sage brush struggled for existence in the midst of waste of alkali and sand, to- day are fields of waving grain and blossOming orange groves. Hundreds of miles of canals and ditches have been constructed. hundreds of wells |, have been sunk, and thousands of acres of land have been cultivated in zones where once the desOlatiOn of Sahara reigned.
 MOistened by fresh waters and fer tilized by the rich silt of the swift mountain streams, once trackless wastes and desOlate valleys in the arid southwest, have become as fertile as the famous Valley of the Nile, and send forth crops of endless variety and exceeding abundance.
 Irrigation is intensive farming. Where the water supply is ample, it is sure farming. There are no failures. the crops are enormous. The expert enced irrigatOr is like the trained engineer with his hand on the lever. The movements of his hand regulate the amount of water supplied to his fields as those of the engineer control his engine.
 In most of the irrigable sections of west fertilizers have never been used, although the land has been constantly cultivated for over two centuries. In
The Coconino sun., 1900-01-27

many sections fields may be seen which have yielded successive crops of wheat for forty years and show no diminutiOn of productive strength.
 Wonderful progress is shown in the methods of constructing canals, dams and pumping machinery, and in the manner of distributing water. Modern inventions in machinery have greatly lessened the time, labor, and cost Of construction and management and made possible many gigantic enter prises of land reclamation and water utilization.
 Mountains have been tunneled and whole rivers have been lifted from their beds and spread over the valleys precisely as wanted. High up in the ranges and on the elevated plateaus immense storage reservoirs have been constructed to impOund the flood wat CTS of the streams so that the thirsty land below shall not suffer during the long rainless summer.
 As the successful solution of the problem of conservation of flood waters means the reclamation of millions of acres of public land, the people natural ly ask the government to promote measures having this end in view. To this demand the government responds. Lands containing excellent reservoir sites have been set aside and thor ough study of the sources and perma- hence of the water supply of the arid regions has been made to enable Con- gress to legislate with intelligence upon this important subject.
 In aid of this work the Twelfth Gen. sus will endeavor comprehensively to show the present condition and values of agriculture in the arid and sub

his usefulness would be at an end.

WHY He Is Third.

Not few readers of the newspapers
must have been puzzled by the fact
that the new king of Italy calls himself
and is called "VittOrio-Imanuele Ill"
AS the existing kingdom Of Italy has
hitherto had only two kings in all, and
as one of them was named UmbertO,
1t was natural to ask how this one
could be. the third bearer of the first
kings name. The explanation lies In
the circumstance that, before the crea-
tlon of modern Italy. the present king S
grandfather was king Of Sardinia, and
he was the second Victor Emmanuel
to bear that title. He did not change
it on assuming the more spacious
throne, and the curious result is that
Italy calls her first Victor Emmanuel
her second and her second her third

A Test of Accuracy.

Drawing from memory is one Of the
most difficult things in the world to do
Even professional artists find that they
must rely largely upon hasty jOttings
made upon the spot as suggestions fol
their pictures. Those who are not art
lists need to look keenly and closely al
what they wish to recollect, for they
must depend upon their memory tc
bring details back to them. 1t IS an ex
cellent corrective of superficial observa

saw it and afterward return to the
scene and take another view. 1t Is 8

He Invented the "Governor.'

Robert W. Gardner Of Quincy, Ills,
who invented the governor" attached
to steam engines nearly 80 years ago. Is
a native of Scotland, his father having
been one of the most noted engineers
Of his day. He drifted into Quincy
many years ago looking for school to
teach or other employment and finally
got a job as apprentice In a small ma
chine shop Of Mr.. Turner. which he
afterward purchased. and 1t was there
that he saw the necessity for gov
ernor" for steam engines and Invented
one. His first patent was issued In
1860. but he has received many since
for improvements on the governor
and for other inventions, some of
which are Of corresponding Importance.
