f1uence increasingly for nearly
seven months. His approval of
the bill by formerly attaching
his signature to it--which he will
naturally do with becoming
promptness-will mark a notable
triumph for the president of the
United States,
Most of the house leaders in
the party of President Roosevelt
were strenuously opposed to the
measure, and fought it vigorous
ly to the very last, but the very
significant vote of 146 to IS by
which 1T was finally adopted not
only emphasizes popular senti-
ment In support of the measure
itself as represented in the lower
house of congress, but brings out
into bold relief the political inde-
pendence of the twenty-siAth
president of the United States.
An executive of less marked in
dividuality, or one more inclined
to trim for party support,
would have quietly suffered his
own pet measure to go down to
defeal. But that would not have
been Rooseveltian.
The bill creates a reclamation
fund from the sale of publicla
in Arizona, California, Colorado,
Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Nebras-
ka, Nevada, New Mexico, North
Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon,
South Dakota, Utah, Washing
ton and Wyoming, less the
amount paid to local land officers
and S per cent due to the states
under existing laws for educa-
tional purposes, the reclamation
fund to be used for the construc-
ton and maintenance of irriga-
works in the sixteen states and
territories enumerated.
Congressman Hepburn was
moved to attack it as merely a
scheme to fasten an expenditure
of S750,00O, 900 on the national
treasury, but we predict that long
before third of that amount has
been disbursed for irrigation he
and dozens of his synpathizers
will have come to recognize their
mistake in opposing it.
SOME men have a longer vision
than others.

OPHELIA.

LIGHTNING'S DESTRUCTIVE WORK
VISITING AND OTHER PERSONALS.
1t is often claimed that lightning
never strikes house that is covered
with tin or iron. If such is the rule
an exception occurred in this neigh
borhood a week or too ago during
one of the severe storms which have
visited us this summer. There was
but one clap Of thunder and one holt
of lightning, but that bolt struck the
chimney of the house occupied by
U. Ingram on one of the farms of II.
IL. Selby-as noted in your last issue
and tore hole clear through from
side to side several feet below the
top and above the bouse-roof. Then
it appears to have scattered all over
that tin roof, entering the house in
several places, and almost completely
wrecking it, setting it on fire in two
places. Mr.. Ingram had just opened
a window shutter to see how near the
storm was over, and was thrown
backwards on the floor, and badly
bruised. That particular bolt appears
to have passed out of the open door
on the opposite side. The two younger
daughters of Mr.. Ingram were in its
path and they clutched one another
and fell in heat. They were badly
burnt about their eyes and different
parts of their bodies. 1t was an
hour-and-half before they recovered
consciousness. All in the room were
affected, and when Mrs. Ingram, who
first recovered, saw her husband and
children lying about the floor she
thought they were all dead. One of
Elias Harcum's sors, who was there
hauling wheat on board vessel.
was so badly affected that he was
carried home supposed to be hurt
beyond hope; but all have since re-
covered. On the upper floor one of
the windows was torn ont, frame and
facings included, and carried across
the room and dropped in a bed.

PAINT YOUR BUILDINGS.

There is an old saying which char
acterizes the nnwisely parsimonlous
man as one who "saves at the spigot
and wastes at the bunghole." There
is another expression that is equal
ly as applicable-'penny wise and
pound foolish" We have often
thought that the man who will allow
costly buildings to fall into decay for
the lack of paint, is saving at the
spigot and wasting at the bunghole.
Good paint costs money and the
services of "a competent painter to
apply it costs more, but the lack of
paint on any house costs more than
paint and painter. To save money
by saving paint is penny wise and
pound foolish. Any building that
was worth putting up in the begin
ming is worth enough good paint to
preserve it, and sufficiently frequent
repainting to continue the preserva-
ton. Money spent in painting is
money saved in deterioration.
The modern paint-the best-is
not so awful expensive, and it costs
less to keep a honse we'll painted than
it requires to keep it IN repair when
not painted.--Free Lance.
