New Ditch Corporation.

Tuesday morning, just before the
the meeting of the InterMountain IT.
rigation Association, Il number OF men
met in Kaufman a. FrOst's Office and
formed corporation for the purpose OF
building and operating an irrigation
canal. with a capital stock of $3.50, 900.
This association is composed of S. II.
PackwoOd, John Fl. SmithsOn, Ralph
Kaufman, J. G. Hubbell and John +.
Frost, and is called the Cascade Canal
company.
This corporation will, within a short
time put a corps of surveyors at work
route, which work will cost $500 to SO,
600. When a route has been decided
on and the cost of construction obtained,
the people will be asked to step in and
assist in the construction by buying
stock in the same and all who desire,
will have the same option on the rail
road lands as may be extended to the
promoters.
Now, taking all things iato considera-
ton, it seems but fair to those who pun
up their money, that in the event of TIN
association giving away the new cerpo-
ration, that their money, less expenses,
be refunded to the donors.
If the new corporation deals fairly
and s4uarely with the people, asad there
is no reason why it should not, it is en-
titled to an earnest consideration, and
we believe our people will assist in the
enterprise. A great deal of idiotic rot
and gable from Irresponsible parties,
has rulled the feeling of sOme but we
advise our readers to withhold or sus-
pend judgment until actual facts are
presented. We shall hope for the best
and believe the new corporation win
build canal that will cover as mach
land as possible.
With the proper co-operatioa on the
part of those directly Interested, it is
perhaps possible to get high line ditch
a thing we all so much desire, bua il
will have to be Il cooperation indes q
and in dollars. Talk will not do.
The new corporation is composed as
follows s. 7. Packwood president, j
II. Smlthson vice president, j. C. Hub
bell treasurer, J. r.. Frost secreGAry.
We presume this new corporation
VIII prove a. success and if so. year
hence will ind anywhere from 10000 to
10000 acres under water and this vast
body OF faad will afford homes for 400 to
800 Families, which means sOr Ellens.
burg an immense trade, her mechanics

city direct in the way of population at
least 5000. We hope for the best and

The Ditch Meeting.

The meeting of the Inter-MOuntain
Irrigation Association at the court
house on Tuesday was called to order
by chairman Mires. Ralph kaufman
chairman of the ways and means com,
mittee, made Il written report which
was received. He stated that a number
of gentlemen had formed a corporation
to take steps in the matter, and as
1.-THE report was not what was expected
it seemed to rather block the work OF
the meeting.
He said the committee could recon-
mend only IL ditch, practically on the
Burlingame survey, made ten years,
with this exception, that instead OF
coming on the east side of the river
from CleElum, they come down on the
west side to Il point above ThOrp on
John Yearwood's ranch. This plan
would involve Il tax of about $l2 per
acre. This ditch would cover about d.
GOO acres ON the west side and 20, 600 on
this side, all of which is the best of land.
| Just what will be done in the matter,
we are unable to say. Those present
did not care to speak for the whole and
then too, the sentiment is Overwhelm-
ngly in favor of Il high line ditch, one
that will practically cover all the land
of the valley not now covered Another
meeting OF the association is called for
Saturday, March 18th at l:30 p. IN.

The Growth of seaweed.

Seaweeds vary surprisingly in their
habits Of life. Some species grow al
together beneath the water, attaching
themselves below the lowest tide level,
other frequent heights where they are
left dry at every %retreating tide, while
others yet are found in situations
where they are scarcely ever covered
by water. Whereas most of them at
tach themselves to rocks or solid bot
tom, keeping to the shadows, there are
exceptions to the rule, among which
the most remarkable is the sargasso
or gulf weed, which floats on the
surface Of the ocean,. Immense fields
Of it are seen by the navigator, extend
ing as far as the eye can reach. 1t is
sometimes so abundant as seriously to
interfere with the progress of ships,
and it was this which SO alarmed the
crew Of Columbus on his first voyage

Adams proved to be the only pre-

on the delegation to the state conven-

SPECIAL NOTICES,
sUwANEE SPRING.

At Camden, N. j., they were discuss
ing the death OF Hon. William ].
Sewell, United States Senator from
New Jersey, when DIR. Taylor, the
family physician, in speaking of the
senator's death this afternoon, said:
HE would have probably lived many
years with diabetes had he not gone
abroad, but Carlsbad had always
helped him before, and it was there
that he went for relief again. 1t was
there that he contracted the pneu-
monia trouble, and this, with the dia-
betes he already had, resulted in a
complication that medical skill proved
unable to cope with"
Thereupon DIR. w. H. Morse, the
American director of the Bureau Of
Materia Medioa, said:
That meets my argument for SUI
vance Springs. / published a good
word for them five years ago, and
continue to maintain that In every
way the water Is the equal of Carlsbad
or any other. The Springs are easy of
access, and the psychic influences of
change OF scenery and climate are
wonderful. There are no chill winds to
cause pneumonia, and no malaria. My
advice is to send all patients with kid
ney troubles to Suwanee Springs. and
let Carlsbad take care of itself. Springs
equal in every way 10 the most aristo-
cratic in Europe, need our apprecia-
ton, and they are getting it,"
