Irrigation District.

By notice published in this issue
it will be seen that farmers residing
under the Galloway ditch have decid-
ed to organize an irrigation district.
There is no question but that this is
the proper move and will result to
the advantage and satisfaction of all
who use water from that the ditch.
1t furnishes practically the only
means by which fully equitable
distribution of water can be secured,
and with the district system once
instituted farmers will discover that
water supply can be made to go
much further than under old methods
and should an unusual season bring
shortage of water the system Of
dividing the district into sub dstrcts,
which alternately receive the full
volume for specific period, will
prove to be the successful system of
irrigation The committee having
the petition in charge did not find
time to call upon all residents, but
so soon as the required number OF
signers were obtained they discon-
tinued as it was necessary tc
make publication without delay ir
order to fulfill legal requirements il
time for July meeting of board OF
commissioners.

ENEMIES OF The WABASH
III HAS THE PENNSYLVANIA AND
VANDERBILT LINES TO FIGHT.
Report of Receiver MnIott. OF the Van
daIin-InvestOrs Buying l.. r.. ~
w. stock and Securities.

a clear-headed railway official remarked
yesterday that he was satisfied that the
Eel River road. now owned by the Logans-
port & Toledo Railway Company, was
joint purchase of the Pennsylvania and the
Vanderbilt lines; that the future would de-
velop that the Pennsylvania and the Van
derbilt lines have been buying the stock of
the Evansville & Terre Haute, and that
both the Eel River and the Evansville q
Terre Haute will be operated in the inter
ests of the syndicate named. The Pittsburg
Post says: This will be direct invasion
of Wabash territory, as hitherto that line
had a monopoly of the Detroit and St
Louis and the Toledo and st. Louis bust
ness, the Pennsylvania Company never
made any attempt to handle through bust
ness between these points. IL is believed
now that this is a plan of the Pennsylva-
mia and the Vanderbilts to get back at the
Wabash, and that if the Wabash people
come into Pittsburg the Pennsylvania and
the yanderbilts will Immediately establish
through line from all the points named
above, and that the Lake Shore, Michigan
Central, Nickel Plate, Fort Wayne and
Panhandle will cease to give any business
to the Wabash, but will send it via South
Bend, or from Fort Wayne TO Logansport.
This will be the tremendous weapon that
will be used TO force the Wabash 10 come to
terms. The Nanderbilts are just as much
opposed to the Wabash obtaining an en-
trance TO Pittsburg as the Pennsylvania,
and both are working now in conjunction
and have the plan as outlined above pre-
pared 10 intimidate President Ramsey and
prevent the Wabash extension from being
constructed. With James McCrea, first vice

Church Property MutiIated.

The Ninth Presbyterian Church. composed
of a colored congregation, discovered Sun
day that the church building had been en-
tered during the week and nearly every
piece of furniture. including the piano
and the books had been destroyed or badly
damaged. The matter was reported to the
police. but there was no CleW as TO the
identity of the vandals. IL was thought
by the colOred people that the work was
that of the ruffinally gang, known as the
"BungalOos."
