Wind as a Destroyer.

The ravages wrought upon sea bluffs
during great storms are often due to
the wind as much as to the ocean
waves. Sand and salt spray driven for
hours before. a violent wind act like a
gigantic sand blast, eating away with
surprising rapidly the layers of gravel
and sand of which many projecting
headlands are composed. The surfaces
of bodies exposed to such a wind are
soon pitted. In a great gale in 1899 a
single night sufticed to convert the
window panes Of the life saving station

MONDELL IN CHARGE.

Great responsibility and lofty dis,
tiL"tion have been placed upon our
talented congressman, Hon. Frank W.
Mondell. It is a pleasure to tho peo,
pie of Wyoming to note that the irri.
CATION bill has been given into his
charge and hat he. has been called to
the White House to confer with the
president in relation thereto. That he
has mastered the problem all will nd,
init, and that he has the power to pre-
sent the case of the arid west all are
assured. The fight Is on. 1t is the
west against the east. Chances are In
our favor and Wyoming is at the helm.
We are proud indeed that in both
house and senate representatives of
this commonwealth are In the lead of
the irrigation battle.

Their" should he no hesitation in apply
ing our energies TO that work and to-
ward that result.
The principal object and purpose
Of this bill is to redeem the desert
lands of our arid regions. giving them
life and vitality by the application of
water, so that they may lie made homes
and permanent abiding places for the
settler and his family. The theory Is
that the lands OF the United States
should be a trust estate, held for the
benefit OF the citizens, and SO dispos.
ed OF as to carry the greatest comfort
and the maximum OF happiness to the
greatest number OF people.
By some course of reasoning which
is unintelligible to my mind. the con,
Clusion has been reached, as stated by
some of the opponents of the pending
measure, that it is a bill to centralize
large tracts of our present public do,
main in the hands of spectators and
large owners of sheep and cattle, tC
the exclusion of the actual settler and
farmer. If there is by the terms o.
the bill one thing above another tina
Is most carefully guarded and hedget
about. it is this very proposition.
1T not only provides that these land.
shall be subject t o entry only under the
homestead law. but it goes further thai
that and puts it within the power o
the secretary Of the interior, in sucl
cases as he may deem proper, to limi
even the operation of our homestea,
act to such rae of land as may b.
thought best fitted Il fill the case an,
requirements of the actual settler. bu
In no case to exceed the amount o
100 acres to any entryman. II an.
greater safeguards can be throw
around his proposition than the bill
already contains | am satisfied that tn,
movers of the bill will gladly accep
any amendment that may now or here
after he offered that shall have the ei
feet Of more closely guarding the pull
lie lands in this particular.
We are all of us agreed on the pre-
position that this lane should be hel,
for the homesteader and the hom'
maker"
