INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION.
Thomas Tarnbull Testifes About
Chinese Cheap Labor.

Washington, June 13.-Prof. Meade,
the agricultural department irriga-
ton expert, continued his testimony
before the industrial commission yes
terday. He said that irrigation Is
necessary in two-ffths of the area Of
the United States to make farming
profitable. To those inclined to con-
slider it a sectional question, he
would say that within the past few
years there had been redeemed an
area in Louisiana and Texas larger
than some New England states, caus-
ing an increase in the value Of land
from IS to from $50 to 800 an acre.
He also said that irrigation is COM
ing to be considered a necessary adj
iunct to market gardening along the
Atlantic coast. He estimated that
there are not fewer than $4,000 irri-
cation bitches in the United States,
costing total Of not less than $780,
100000, and possibly much more. He
advocated government aid under Ger.
tain restrictions in retaining some
sections Of the country by irrigation.
In the afternoon Mr.. Thomas Turn
bull, representing the San Francisco
chamber of commerce, testified con-
corning labor conditions in Califor-
MIA. He said that, generally speak
ing, skilled labor receives better
wages in California than in the east
ern states, while there is no similar
difference in the wages Of unskilled
labor. He expressed the opinion that
the cheapness Of Chinese labor is due
almost entirely to the inefflciency OF
the Chinese as laborers. Speaking Of
the Chinese, he said the sentiment in
California was generally favorable to
their prescription, as they were not
desirable acquisitions from any point
OF view.
