pointed by President Roosevelt, to

the session of congress three years ago we secured an increase from S50,- 900 to S10O,000.
 Two years ago, by an amendment to the sundry civil bill, the senate in creased this appropriation to s250,000 but the conference committee reduc ed it to S100,000.
 On year ago the senate increased the appropriation to s200,0o0, but we were not strong enough to hold it in the house and IL was reduced again in conference to S100,0O0.
 In the present session the senate again increased the appropriation we succeeded in holding it in confer ence, and the sundry civil bill has just been passed with this appropria- ton of s200,000.
 This increase will enable the geo. logical survey to make such needed surveys and investigations as to the W ater resources of the country which would not be within the scope of the general irrigation act passed in this session of congress.
 This increase in the appropriation
 -'-o geological survey is one of the
 .a,.cts , about which our members 4a,e Jeen corresponding with their seaators and representative in con gress ever since our association was .oi med, and I am sure that you will oe grati1ied to know that We have al last accomplished the desired results
 The passage of the general irriga ton bill marked the inauguration of the greatest project ever undertaken by any government. It means nothing less than the creation out of Q worth less waste of fertile territory with in our own borders eventually capable of sustaining greater population than our whole country has today It will result in more widespread and far-reacEing benefits to our people than any other national policy which can be adopted in this generation. About six million dollars will be i'm mediately available for the construc- tion of irrigation works under this act.
 Our association was formed just three years ago. At that time na- tional irrigation was looked upon as an ''irridescent dream and those who | were working for ;t :.s raIuUU" vnas- ers." Today it is an assured fact. Con gress has adopted it as policy of the government. This much has been accomplished.
 But our work is only begun. It will not be completed until the last acre of irrigable public land has been re- claimed and settled.
 | We must maintain our organization, enlarge its membership, increase its influence and broaden the scope of our educational campaign. Your very truly. George H. Maxwell. l Executive Chairman.

TOMBSTONE FRANCHISE
City Council Grants a Franchise for New Water Works in Tombstone to Ben Goodrich and Associates
(ProsDector1

(Prospector
 Judge Ben Goodrich and associates made application to the Tombstone city council for a franchise granting permission to lay mains and operate water works system in this city. The franchise was granted
 1u1sv Goodrich was seen and when asked in regard to the water company. stated that himself and associates had asked for and had been granted a franchise, and that a company would be immediately organized, the mem bers of which would come from among the citizens of Tombstone. The water is to come from the Tombstone Con solidated Mines.
 from a scarcity of water at present. it is believed by the promoters of the proposed new water works system | that the day is not far distant whea the Huachuca Water company will | find iself unable to meet the demands made upon its present limited sup ply. That the city will grow rapidly within the next twelve months is con ceded by all; and with this increased population will come additional de mand for fire protection, greater de mand for domestic purposes, and . along with these will be an increased call for water for irrigating purposes lawns, gardens and shrubbery are in cident to prosperity, and people vii indulge themselves in these little poetic surroundings when water cal be had in plentiful quantities.
 Tombstone can be made the pretti est city in the west by he liberal us' Iof water; its equable climate and pro ductive soil make 1t possible to rais' fruits, vegetables, roses and rar' shrubbery if only irrigated, a necee sity that cannot be afforded or com lplied with under the present scarcit! of water. . Il Of course this water will not b. available until the pumps of the Con solidated Mines shall have been pu in operation, awaiting which time tn company ' I'll put down It's mains an distributing service. after whicl Tombstone will be known asstAe gal den of roses.

LOT JUMPING
 SEVERAL CASES
MRS. BELL GUARDS HER TENT
 WITH A RIFLE
w. B. Mason Has Two Cases in Court-Says He Once Lived or the Lot Now Occupied by Mir Bell

There has been considerable excite ment in Bisbee during the past week caused by several attempts at lot jumping In several instances lots thal have been occupied by citizens and have been improved to consid erable extent have been jumped.
 w B. Mason had two lots jumped last week and now has two cases ir court. One lot, near the Grand View ho-el which was recently appropri ated. has been owned by Mir. MasoI for the past seven years. e
 T lived there for some years" saio MT. Mason yesterday, ;'and did moi expect that my rights would be con tested At one time I had my home on this very spot, where l lived for years. l rented the property and the house was burned down, leaving the lot vacant. The first l knew of any trouble was when l was told that Mir Bell had put up tent on the ground and had moved his family into it. When l saw him he refused to get of. so l simply brought action sof ejectment.
 There was a god deal of excitement there al o'clock Saturday night when a gang of men went up there to throw the tent down into the ravine below. They had the tent turned around and pushed over the edge oi the embankment, three feet or more when Mrs. Bell appeared on the scene with a rifle. She declared that she would shoot the first one who at 1srnpted to move the tent another inch and those engaged in the work wen away.
 .I went up to another lot upor which I had barn" continued MT Mason. and found that W. N. Ed wards had jumped this lot. l have brought an action of ejectment 1T this case.
 It was learned last night that other lots had been jumped. A mining claim of Martin O'Hare, which was paented. was jumped few days ago
 Every one having lot on Schoo Hill is fencing it in as fast as possi ble to prevent any further trouble There is expected to be considerabl trouble arising from this state of al fairs
