The Sentry's 2ebuke.

They are laughing in Wash ington over rebuke that sen try of one of the departments administered recently to the Russian Ambassadors coach man. says the Boston Post.
 The coachman, it appears, wished to drive his marter's car riage along a roadway that for some reason was barred. When the sentry refused to let the car rage pass the coachman remon- strated.
 q drive" he said, "ze Russian Minister"
 'tI can't help it," returned the sen try,
 "Let me trough" persisted the coachman. My master is ze Count Cassini, ze Ambassador Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of ze Czar of all ze Russias.

OLD CANAL PROJECT REVIVED The Old South Gila Canal and
 Dam Site Relocated.

From Kentucky comes the news that the old South Gila dam and canal enterprise, involving an extensive dam little over the line in MaricOpa county, has been again taken up by eastern capitalists, and will now be pushed through to completion. The site for the dam and much of the right of way for the main distributing canal has been re- located and the required papers filed at Phoenix.
 This enterprise was started a number of years ago, and eXten- sive work begun on the dam and on the main waterways. Oper- ationS were we'll under way, with the foundation and sub-structure of the dam practically com pleted, as well as large section of the distributing canal, when a flood washed out a large part of the dam. About all of that part of the dam from bedrock to the surface is completed and un- injured, but the disaster at that stage of the work frightened of the investors and all work was abandoned, although it is stated that about $750, GOO had been in vested up to that time.
 With the foundation work in tact and practically completed the new company will have long start with moderate final cost. Taking this view of the matter, in connection with the recent noticeable activity in irri gation enterprises, it is fair to assume that there will be no great delays ere commencing the new work.
 While the dam itself and a part of the main canal is in Maricopa county, fully ninetenths of the land available for irrigation under the system lies in Yuma county, so it may fairly be con- sidered Yuma county project.

AND GOOD ROADS
 CORRELLATLVE.

The uppermost theme in the minds of the good people of the twin valleys is today irrigation; the means to the end of making their lands productive to the ex- tent they should be. To the more quickly and surely accom- pllSh this much to be desired end is the increase of population, for with numbers lies strength, political, when such strength be- comes necessary, and financial, when it becomes necessary to do things or to assume the initia- tive.
 How many stop to think that on this latter phase good roads speak more eloquently to the home seeker, the prospective set tier and buyer of property than volumes of statistics or tonnes of crop and climatic information Not many, yet the fact remains. Consider the roads as they are throughout the summer, as. in fact, they are through fifty weeks of the ffty-two. On ground thai for many consecu- tive months no rain falls, is parched and dry. In itself des- sicated detritus, it is reduced to powder under the constant attri- tion of passing wheels. In depth it increases and it eddies, circles and vhirls around the passing

traveller. The course of a wagon can be traced for miles from the almost stagnant clouds of dust.
 Good roads lend a charm to rural life. Social customs re- vive and the monOtOny of en- forced seclusion is sgreeably broken. The towns are brought within easy reach of the farm, and city privileges are extended to an almost indefinite range in to the country. The greater the attractions of farm life the great CT variety given to mental and physical activities, by so much are the inducements greater for the boys and girls to remain there. The fascination of the town is offset when you bring it's privileges within easy reach.
 Even considered solely from a point of sordid dollars and centsy is it not cheaper to haul load to the extreme limit of your wagon, and do it easily, than to be obliged to make two trips for the same load? Is it not cheap CT, at the years end, to make your trips to town in half the time you now do it? Consider all these things, and especially consider the effect the present roads will have upon investigat- ing homeseekers. Every intend ing settler who is deterred from making his home here on account of poor roads will be a walking and talking advertisementagainst this section.
 Irrigation we must, perfOrce, have. Equally as we'll must we have good roads to meet the re quirements of the changed con ditiOnS.
