attracted the attention Of the world by
steering a balloon around the Eiffel tow
err, seems to be able to continue to keep
himself In public view. by daring and
successful feats of air navigation. Late
~ he has made some trial trips IN a
new balloon, far out to sea and returned
safely.
In the account of one Of these trial
trips, il Is stated that he started from
the aorodrome on the Bay Of Hercules,
near Monte Carlo, went right out to
sea, and performed numerous evou
lions showing his mastership over the
machine He rose, descended, turned,
stopped, and again darted ahead
Every movement, IL Is asserted, was
carried out with astounding ease. Hav-
ing completed his trial trip he turned
inland soaring over the Casino and the
castle and finally allghted 10 receive

ARID LAND LEGISLATION.

We publish today the full text Of the
arid lands bin introduced in Congress
by Mr. Newlanls Of Nevada, The pur-
pose OF the measure Is, no doubt for the
benefit OF the states which are named
IN the bin. But It appears to US, on
b brief examination OF lts provisions,
that the moneys received from the
sale and disposal Of public lands which
nre to be set aside as q special fund
for the reclamation Of arid lands, "will
be very inadequate for the object IN
view, particularly after the Ave percen-
tum FOR educational and other purposes
now appropriated by law therefrom, IL
deducted from the sum total. The
nmount for each apportioned between
The sixteen states and territories, would
be very small sum, and II would take
great many years OF income from
that source to begin the construction OF
the necessary works for the Irrigation
projects IN contemplation,
The greatness Of the undertaking does
not seem to be fully appreciated by the
majority of our national lawmakers. II
VIII have to be presented to them 10 all
its magnitude, with the grand results
that would surely be effected and the
benefits that would result to the whole
country as well as to the regions to be
reclaimed, SO that something like an
adequate appropriation may be made,
from year TO year, as necessities viii
demand In order that the grand pur-
pose In view may be successfully
achieved,
1t Is stated that Governor Heber M,
Wells intends to call meeting OF
practical men interested In and In
formed about irrigation In the West,
to take into consideration the whole
subject. We hope the meeting Will be
held and that It will be attended by
Representatives Of all the irrigation in
terests OF the state, that the subject
will be thoroughly discussed and some
practical suggestions VIII be put into
proper form, so as to be presented to
Congress before action Is taken on any
OF the measures that have been pro-
posed. II may be necessary TO APP
point some person or persons thorough
~ posted on all the points to be con-
sidered, as committee representing
The irrigation affairs Of the state, be-
fore the committees Of Congress TO
which these matters have been and VIII
be referred
The importance of wise legislation on
the reclamation of the arid lands, and
for the regulation Of the distribution
of public waters, with the rights Of the
respective states through which they
how and other affairs intimately assoc
ciated herewith, has not yet soaked
into the brains Of average congressman

and held up TO view until It Is fully
understood and measures are adopted

Il shall be satisfactory to all the states
