THE chaotic harmony which
prevailed in Reno this week among
the Democrats and Silver men (?)
accompanied by the smiles on the
faces of Newlands and Sadler,
o'ercast the town with a halo
which made many of the delegates
to the show unable to distinguish
night from day. 1t is said there
was some trouble about some of
them distinguishing yellow money
from white money, the silver ques-
ton being so much in evidence.

the strong man all through the

dee does as we'll the Republicans

VALUE or IRRIGATION.

Several pages of the July Cen
sus Report are devoted to pre-
sentation of the present result of
efforts to convert arid or semi-arid
land into productive farms. The
first question that is usually asked
when irrigation propositions are
made is if irrigation is profitable.
Does the value of the land when
supplied with water justify the
original outlay and the cost of the
maintenance of irrigation works?
The report states that in the de-
cade ending in 1899 the number
of acres irrigated was 7,53o,545, of
which 5,o44,4I2 were in crops.
The total cost of construction of
the irrigation system operated in
1899 was $67,77o,o42. The total
value of crops for the portion un-
der cultivation was $S6,86o,4oI.
The number of irrigators and the
number of acres irrigated in the
decade ending 1899 approximately
doubled when compared with the
preceding ten-year period. The
average cost Of irrigating an acre
was $8.85. The fact is mentioned
that the first attempts at irriga-
ton made by the English-speaking
people of this country were con-
temporaneous with the introduc-
ton of rice growing in the Caro-
linas in 1900. For century and
half rice was the only crop which
was cultivated by this race with
the aid of irrigation. When the
Mormons were driven out of Illi-
nois and Missouri and their fight
westward was arrested by the bar
ICuACoo vi III lCSlOH IAlOuSA
which they passed, fear of starva-
ton SO stimulated their faculties
that they perceived that the waters
running to waste in the nearby
mountains would serve more use
full purpose if distributed over the
ground upon which they were
camped and on which Salt Lake
City now stands. A little later
gold miners in California applied
the idea to the conduct of water
from rivers to the surface mines
which were mostly valueless with
out water. In California the value
of irrigated crops in 1899 was
$32,775,36I; the cost of construct
ing works, SIG, I8I,6Io.

IT is quite clear, says an ex-
change, that the Democratic party
will fight the battle of this cam
paign under the guise of opposing
trusts, but really with the purpose
to infiict all the damage possible to
home industries. There is nothing
very strange about this when one
recalls the fact that opposition to
protection has been the one con-
trolling idea of that party from the
date of its formation.

THE San Francisco Bulletin is
apparently taking considerable in
terest in the political welfare of
Nevada, and is boosting Newlands
for the U. S. Senate. This may
be all right for the paper, but the
plan shows the tendency of the
candidate to patronize outside in
stitutions. Newlands has been
quite liberal with class of Neva-
da papers, but seems to be little
doubtful sometimes as to whether
he is getting value received or not.

terday afternoon to see the Santa Fe

sport was fine, quite number of grand

The Barelas team was composed of
players considerably larger than the
kids and some old experienced players,
but claim were defeated through the
absence of several their strong
players and the weakness of the sub
stitutes. Shepard did the pitching for
the kids and his work was fine, strik-

STATEHOOD NOT YET.
Territorial Officer Reynolds Refuses
to Talk.
NEW MEXICO TO WAIT.

In the conduct of the governmental
affairs of New Mexico, Governor Otero
has an able coadjutor. He is j. w.
Reynolds, of Santa Fe, recently con-
firmed as territorial secretary, says the
Denver Post.
Secretary Reynolds is at the Brown
hotel, where he and his wife will So
journ for day or two. Mr.. Reynolds
is modest. unassuming and yet very
engaging withal. He is but % years of
age, yet he has an air of quiet certitude
about him that usually goes with great
er maturity of years. He was gradu-
ated with honors from the Massachu-
setts Institute of Technology three
years ago, and had thoroughly fitted
himself for the profession of mining
engineering. when the president ap-
pointed him to his present position.
Two weeks ago the senate confirmed
the appointment.
Mr.. Reynolds is a son of Jefferson
Reynolds, president of the First Ma.
tional bank of Las Vegas, one of the
ablest fnanciers and most prominent
citizens of New Mexico. Secretary
Reynolds has his fathers sterling quail
tiles and enjoys popularity that is
wide and well deserved.
The outlook for New Mexico was
never better" said Mr.. Reynolds. "A
number of railroads are building into
our territory, and there is prospect
that several trunk lines will be built,
and these will open up mineral and
timber districts heretofore untouched
Mr.. Reynolds did not care to talk of
! New MeXico's prospects for statehood,
but j. II. Purdy. of Santa Fe, who was
also at the Brown hotel, said: 81 acre
is a wide divergence of opinion on the
| subject of statehood. The talk one
hears in public places is largely for
statehood, but in quiet places where
men talk privately together and heart
TO heart as the phrase goes, grave
doubt are expressed that the territory
is ready TO try self-government. The
house of representatives is known to
favor the proposition. but the attitude
of the senate is considered to be cold
if not actually antagonistic, and
hardly believe that even the most san
guine advocates of statehood expect
the admission of New Mexico at this
time"

the scaffolding on which they were
standing collapsed, precipitating the
Torkmen to the floor. w. b. Lambkin,
one of the workmen engaged, was
bruised by coming in contact with a

ian was sumIoned, who made an ex-

that the injuries sustained, while pain
full, were not of a serious nature.

Four years in the state penitentiary

to arrive at this conclusion, returning
their verdict at 9:15.
The count" received his sentence in
the same calm manner that has mark
en- his conduct throughout the trial,
whith lasted from O'Clock Friday
afternoon. He showed no emotion
whatever.
Many of the ladies who have been
constant visitors at the court room
since the case was opened, were very
much disappointed over the result, and
several shook hands with the little
fellow and expressed their sympathy
at his misfortune.

BOER ENVOY.
Object Of Their Visit to the United
States.

SIdt6Sr
Paris, Feb. 17.-Dr. Leyds. European
agent of the Beers, now in this city,
was questioned by the Associated
Press correspondent today regarding
the object of the mission to the United
States of the Boer delegates, Vessels
and Wolmarans. He replied that they
were merely going to America in re-
sponse to invitations from American
pro-Boers. with a view to reaching ar
rangement for distribution of funds
and other assistance contributed by
the people of the United States.
In other quarters, however, the i'm
preston obtains that the journey was
prompted by developments of the
Anglo-German controversy as to the
attitude of the powers previous to the
Spanish-American war, which, the
members of the Boer delegation be-
lieve, has produced change of senti-
ment in the United States toward
Great Britain on account of the pro-
Spanish action. attributed to Lord
Pauncefote, British ambassador at
Washington, in April, 1898. The Beers
hope to utilize this supposed revulsion
of feeling in an endeavor to get the
United StatesN government to modify
it's attitude toward mediation.

OF Course Family Sheets.

A young married man was this morn
ing purchasing some household neces-
sites at one of the leading dry goods
stores and among other things called
for sheets. On being questioned as to
the size desired. his response was:
Size? Why family size, of course. %
The shopper subsequently admitted it
was his first experience in ma (ng
such purchases, and was almost
stumped for an answer until suddenly
he remembered that restaurant bills of
fare, designated steaks as single and
family size," and he thought the Gus
tom applied to steaks would work all
right on sheets.
