Still More Counterfeiting.

The Secret Service has unearthed
another band of counterfeiters and Sc
cured large quantity of bogus bills,
which are SO cleverly executed that
the average person would never sus-
pect them of being spurious. Things
of great value are always selected by
counterfeiters for imitation, notably
the celebrated Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which has many imitators but
no equals for Indigestion, dyspepsia,
constipation, nervousness and general
debility. The Bitters sets things right
in the stomach, and when the stomach
is in good order, it makes good blood
and plenty of it. In this manner the
Bitters get at the seat of strength and
vitality, and restore vigor to the weak
and debilitated. Beware of counter
feits when buying.

Irrigation in Russia.

National irrigation is being pushed
by Russia. The Government contem-
plates undertaking large irrigation
works in western Siberia. In the dis
tricts of Tomsk and Omsk alone no less
than S33 artesian wells have been
bored during the last four years at a
cost of 100000. Furthermore, there
have been constructed in the Govern
ment of Tomsk, in "A different dis
tricts, altogether 276 miles of canals,
while So miles of river beds have been
cleaned of mud, thus reclaiming
through irrigation large areas of coun-
try. In most foreign countries national
irrigation is an accomplished fact; but
nowhere in the world are its possibil-
ities SO great as in the United States.

EARTH GOES SOARING.
An Extraordinary Natural Phenom-
enoa Observed Recently
In Italy.

Count Almerico, a scientist OF un-
questioned standing, sends an extraor-
dinary story of a natural phenomenon
from Payia. He reports that in the
district of Cervarese, near Padua and
Vicenza, there occurred last August
simple but most strange earth con-
vulsion. 1t began about the Sd and
lasted until the 23d of the month and
was seen by laborers working in that
part of the district known as "Traver-
so del sabion." Here and there clods
of earth, propelled by some unseen
force, jumped up into the air to a
height of from six to ten feet in the
form of parabola, falling again on
the ground three or four yards away
This phenomenon was most fire.
quent during the hottest hours of the
day, from nine till four o'clock, and
occurred about every ten minutes in
various places simultaneously. 1t
ceased upon the advent of cold rains.
The clods had an ordinary appear
ance. One which was taken away for
examination weighed about four
pounds and was almost circular in
shape.

and growing market for every kind

uct and would thus be favored by all
classes of manufacturing and CONNER
cial interest in the country. 1t would
insure cheaper living in the West
which would result in the opening OF
numberless mining properties whose
grade of ore is not sufficiently high to
warrant development under present
wage conditions. 1t would create a
demand for transportation which
would bring to its support every rail
road interest
Can any proposition ever before the
American people claim the support of
greater diversity of interest than the
irrigation and reclamation of the vast
and waste areas of arid land under an
honest policy, which would insure
their settlement in small tracts by
genuine home-builders?

Irrigation in Congress.

If the leading minds of the country
were asked tc seriously discuss the
topic: "What is the greatest question
in the United States awaiting solutionW
it is probable that a very few men liv-
ing east of the Mississippi would think
of national irrigation in this connec-
ton. To most of such the subject is
new and unstudied 1t will bear study;
it will bear the most searching scrutiny,
and the more studied the more it is
seen to be question of exceptional
breadth and of truly great possibilities
and far-reaching Importance to the
nation.
The query that many Eastern people
are now making is:. What is this irri-
cation problem before Congress? Is it
a legitimate one for the Government
to consider? Is it one whose support
will be benefit to the country? Along
what lines is it drawn? In short, is it a
question of really national import?
It's Western advocates, regardless of
political affiliations, claim that it is
the most important national question
to-day. Eastern legislators, regardless
of party, are inclined to smile broadly
at this assertion

BODYBUILDING.

IF the internal history of the Ameri-
can Republic is studied carefully, how
ever, the conclusion will be reached
that national irrigation, properly
wrought out, is likely to shortly come
to the front as one of the most import
ant national questions of The day. 1t
embodies, in its truest sense, the ques-
ton of home building, and the Ameri-
can people have been, up to the pres
ent time, essentially a nation of home
builders. In no country in the world
is the desire for home building SO
strong. The wish to own and have
and live in homes has led thousands of
Americans to endure trials and hard
ships, and brave dangers almost be-
yond conception. This controlling
wish of the American people has con-
quered a continent The hardy pio-
neer, with his family and his earthly
belongings slowed in his wagon look
ing for home, has accomplished this.
The locomotive has only followed the

HOMES FOR MILLIONS.

The new homes of the future must be
found on irrigated lands. There are,
according to accepted Government re-
ports, some 100000 600 acres of rich
Western land capable of irrigation if
the Western waters are properly con-
served. Irrigation is not an expert
ment in the United States, and there is
no question raised as to the feasibility
of this reclamation but irrigation de-
velopment in a private way has reached
its limits. But, since under irrigation,
yields are very large, a few acres of
this land would generously support a
family, so that with the lands irrigated
rural homes would be provided for
millions of citizens, waiting and anx-
ious to go upon them.
AN ARID LAND RECLAMATION FUND
The advocates of the national irri-
CATION policy urge that the Govern
ment should, where possible, build
storage reservoirs to catch the flood
waters of the Western streams and
thus provide for the reclamation of
these lands. The Newlands bill, now
before the House Irrigation Com
mittee, and its counterpart, the Hans
brough bill, on the Senate side, pro-
vide for the setting aside of the pro-
ceeds from the sale of public lands in
the arid States and Territories as an
''arid land reclamation fund.-" to be
used for building such reservoirs, and
that the cost of such construction
shall be put upon the land reclaimed
by them, and the land then offered for
sale by the Government in small tracts,
to bona ftle settlers, upon easy terms
POPULAR LEGISLATION.
Who will come to the support of
such policy?
More people and greater diversity
of interests than supported the home
stead act, and such legislation would
be even more popular than the free
home enactments. What other propo-
sition is before the country upon
which labor and capital can better
unite and which they can support,
hand in hand, without clash or jeal-
ously? Every labor union in the United
States which has discussed the ques-
tion has unanimously supported it,
every combination of capital, of what.
ever sort, which has considered it, has
given 1t unqualified endorsement.
WESTERN HOMES; EASTERN MARKETS.
The opening of the vast area of
Western lands by irrigation would
provide cheap homes, certain of re-
turning the owners comfortable live
lihood. 1t would create a valuable
