THU IRRIGATION BILL.
A Measure that Means
Much for Nevada.
From the Examiner1

WASHINGTON, March 9. President
Roosevelt has sent for Representa-
tive Newlands of Nevada to get from
him the exact situation in the House
on the irrigation bill which passed
Senate. The President favors the
measure, but he is aware that such
stalYarts as Grosyeuor, Dalzell, Can
non and Payne are opposed to it.
The Republican leaders were opposed
to reciprocity with Cuba, but they
have been brought around by the
President, who took special inter
est in the matter, as he practically
made it party policy in his mes
sage. He will undoubtedly fight hard
against any action by the House
leaders which would be reputation
of any of his recommendations, in
Guiding that on irrigation.
Yesterday the Newlands irrigation
bill was passed by-the Senate with
only dissenting vote. Representa-
tive NewlanGs and Senator Hans
brough are receiving congratulations
on its passage, Hansbrough handled
the fight in the upper house, but Mr.
Newlands planned the campaign in
general, and as the Trainer of the bill
and the original Congressional en-
thusiast on the irrigation question
is coming in for the large end of the
honors.
WOULD USE WASTE LANDS.
The bill provides for conservation
of waters now going to waste, and
in some cases causing immense an
nual damage, and provides also for
making such water available for irri-
eating arid and semi-arid lands in
States west of the Mississippi The
proposal is for the reclamation OF the
vast areas OF now worthless districts
without making the reclamation q
I
tax on regions not direct benefciaries
Of the Improvement Tt has the APP
proyal OF the Interior Department
and of the Secretary OF Agriculture
and the Geodetic Survey has already
conducted researches sufficiently ex-
tensive to enable it to give assurance
Of the practicability Of the system
for which the bill provides.
GOT CONCERTED ACTION.
Mr.. Newlands, whose home State,
Nevada, is one of the States standing
urgently in need OF irrigation on a
large aud scientific scale as a condi-
ton precedent to great progress, has
been at work on this smbject for a
long time, and has been assiduously
educating Senators and Representa-
tiyes to an acceptance Of his bill.
Early in the present session he sue
ceaded in bringing about concerted
action of the members of Congress
from the States and Territories most
interested in the matter The out
come of this concerted action is the
Senate vote on the subject.

Former Sheriff Phil T. Megaarden is
now fairly on trial. s The state has de-

dictment is based on the conveyance Of
six children-SelinaP illon, Mike Driscoll,
Robert ldelowitz, William ~Schraymer.
Harry Cain and Max Brooks-to the state
public school at Red Wing in March, 1900.
The children were all taken down at one
time and, according to the county attor-
ney, the expenses should not have ex-
ceeded $14 Nevertheless, the bill rem
dered to the county commissioners spec
lies that each of the children was taken
to Red Wing on a different date and at
an expense of $11.56 for each, or $69. SO

taken to the city hospital where it was
found that his breast bone was broken
the base of his skull fractured and he was
injured internally. 49,
Nye was loading mail sacks on the ele-
-vator at the fourth floor. He then started
down, but for some reason the. operator
lost control of the elevator and it started
up. At the top floor the operator jumped
out while the car paused momentarily be-
fore starting on it's downward trip. Nye
also attempted to get out, but was caught
by the roof of the cage and crushed In
some way he got free, but as soon as the
cage had passed the floor, he fell down the
shaft. striking the roof Of the cage three
floors below. One of the tenants on the
sixth floor saw the cage pass with the
injured man on top and, apening the door
he stopped the machine before it reached
