DIAMOND GIINTS.

This was the fourth season of Felde,
Jones of the Chicago American
Leaguers with a champion club. He
landed with Springfield in 1898, Brook
lyn in 1899 and 1900, and Chicago in
1901.
Manager Hanlon of the Brooklyns,
in discussing ball players who had
been released by one team only to turn
out stars of the first magnitude with
another, remarked the other day:
The worst slip ever made was when
/ took George TTeadway in preference
to Bill Lange. From the study Of the
records | picked Little Eva, but | had
a scout on the grounds and he advised /:
'Treadway is better man than Lange,
who is awkward in his movements So
set my own long-distance judgment
aside and took Treadway."

AN EVIL POSSIBILITY.

It would be a sad day, full of evil portent to the Republic, if home-building should become un- popular, if gravitation towards the cities should overcome the outward marce into the expan- sive country, if tenantry in an overcrowded alley should be chosen in preference to a free quarter section in valley or up- land. Therefore I say the devis- ing of means whereby the public domain IS made available for home-seekers, and the arid lands are made habitab1e and produc- tive, Is now one of the most inn portant lines of American en- deavor. l reiterate the saying of the keen satirist and wise phil Osopher: That whoever could make two ears of corn or two blades of grass to grow upon spot of ground where only one grew before, would deserve better of mankind and do more essential service to his country than the whole race of politicians put to- gether.

 EMPIRE. FROM ADDRESS TO THE NATIONAL CONGRESS AT CHICAGO,
 by GEN. NELSON A. MILES,

FROM ADDRESS TO THE NATIONAL IRRIGATION CONGRESS AT CHICAGO,
GEN. NELSON A. MILES,
 U. s. ARMY.

My interest in the subject of irrigation began some three dec ades ago when, in the perform ance of official duty, I had occa- sion to explore more or less thoro- ly that vast extent sparsely set tied or unoccupied land bounded on the east by the one-hundredth meridian, on the north by the 49th parallel, on the south by the Rio Grande. and extending to the Sierra Nevada and Cascade range on the west. The thought often occurred to me then-ar1d the thought has grown into a convic- tion as the years have gone by that 1t was not a part of the economy of nature to have this enormous eXpanse of land lie in- ert and waste. Millions of acres were apparently desert, where the coyote starved and only the cac- tus and sage brush could live; yet the soil held within itself the elements of productiveness, the air was pure as heaven, the scene ry inspiring as a beautiful picture, the application of the vivifying water the only thing lacking to arouse it's rich potential energies.
 Since those early days I have,
 from time to time, with voice and pen, done what I could to advocate the conservation of the water supply of our arid lands and the prevention of the trees, which are the guardians of the foundation at the waters source.

CONCERNING
 TRUSTS.

We've struck the age of trusts; in
 everylartery of trade. We feel the potent influence their
 growing strength has made. There's scarce a thing we eat or
 drink or wear or utilize. But has a nineteenth-century
 trust adjusted to its size. We're getting so that trusts may
 soon monopolize our health; When burglar trusts. will dictate
 means and avenues of stealth; When trusts may govern bench
 and bar and forcib1y maintain The narket-rates at which we
 may the fruits of justice gain. We've trusts political that govern
 offices for sale,
 And social trusts that name the
 price to get within the pale; And ere the climax is attained
 they'll very likely seize The right to govern wedding
 fetes and human obsequies. The fashion isn't popular, but
 since it's come to stay We'd like to hint at something
 worth reviving in or day. We mean a trust that brings to
 rich and poor fuil recompense- A Simon-pure, old-fashioned,
 earnest trust in Providence.

It appears that private or cor porate enterprise cannot be trust ed to control the improvement and reclamation with justice and equality for all concerned. The States themselves are as yet not financially strong enough to undertake the task. It seems to me, therefore, that the plan pro- posed is the most feasible and just.
