Some lconoclastic hand, in painting
life, draws this picture: AS the trials
of life thicken and the dream of other
days fade one by one in the deep vista
of disappointed hopes, the heart grows
weary of the struggle, and we begin to
realize our insignificance. Those who
have climed the steep ladder which
reaches to the pinnacle of fame or
have revelled in luxury or wealth go
to their graves at last with the poor
mendicant who begS pennies by the
wayside, and, like him are soon
forgotten. We pass away as vapor,
while nattpe wears the same aspect of
beauty as when her Creator
commanded her to be. The heavens
will be as bright over our graves as
they are now around our path. The
world will have the same attraction
for our offspring yet unborn as She
had once for ourselves and now for
our children. Yet a little while and all
this will have happened. The world
Will continue to move on and laughter
and song will be heard in the very
chamber in which we died: the eye
that mourned for us will be dry and
will glisten with pleasure. Even our
children will cease to think of us and |
not remember to lisp our name when |
we are gone. Still let us not grieve,
for to be forgotten is the common fate
of all.

The project of building macadam
boulevard between New York and Chi
cago is in line with the work Of good
roads promoters, though of considera-
bly, more extensive proportions than
anything hitherto undertaken i'll this
direction. Men of means and enter
prise are behind the project, for the
carrying out of which the New York
and Chicago Road association was or
ganized III the former city few days
ago. The road proposed would, it is
said, reduce the distance hy highway
between New York and Chicago from
9S1 to $50 miles. 1t is estimated that
it can be built for about $1,000 q mile.
This is big undertaking, but by no
means impossible or improbable of

Wise Provision of Irrigation Law.

Wise Provision of Irrigation Law.
An important and judicouS feature
of the new irrigation law is the provi-
sion made for limiting the sale of
lands to bona fide settlers and the pro-
vision that not more than 16O acres
shall go to any one person in one
tract. This opens the way to the home
seekers of the crowded eastern cities
and gives assurance that no large
tracts of the public domain will come
into possession of one man or one cor
poration.
Aside from the ultimate reclamation
of vast empire, embracing 73,OO0,-
900 acres of arid and semiarid lands,
now practically Il barren waste, the
enlistment of national aid on n scale
of great magnitude has wide reach
ing commercial interest that concerns
all sections of the country. 1t was
this commercial interest that prevailed
against the opponents of the measure,
who maintained that it would seriously
affect present farm values and that it
was unfair to the farmers of other
states" These assailants of the bill
took no account of the vast market for
machinery and manufactured products
of the south, east and middle west that
would be opened by the settlement of
75,OOO,OOO acres that are now unoccu-
pied.
AS the law provides that only com
parativcly small area is to be reclaimed
each year, there would seem to be nc
danger that these lands will be opened
to settlement and cultivation faster
than the development of the nations
resources would require, while it opens
the way for vast future possibilities.
