more will arrive on the scene next year, the
question of distributing them is getting to

exclude them if we choose, we certainly
have the right to dictate that If they will

settle where there is no need for them.
1T can be taken for granted that most of
the immigrants who reach the west find a

other eastern cities. If we do not care to

Judge Jamison is amused, but evil
IDENTIFY a little annoyed, at the attempt to
force him into being a candidate for
something. He is mentioned for governor,
supreme court justice and congressman
alternately. He has so often made the
positive statement that he will not be a
candidate for anything that it is evident
the talk is mere wind. Use Of his name
as the political legatee Of the governor is
evidently done to prejudice the. latter,s
third term boom. OF all the governors
friends and official subordinates, Judge
Jamison is about the strongest advocate
Of a third term candidacy. Several prom

clared against it, and the governor him
self continues to say that he cannot be
a. candidate, tho the continual use of his
name by both friends and foes Is evil
IDENTIFY both pleasing and flattering to
him.

A vigorous campaign has been started by the
People of the west who are interested in irri-
cation to secure the repeal of the desert land
act and the communication clause Of the home
stead act. It IS found that both these laws
open. the way for, vast frauds in the pre-
emption Of government lands. The big cattle
companies have secured, and are securing,
settlers who are willing to go and live on the
land and cultivate it. And now the lang grab
bers are startingoin on the unwatered domain
which may be reclaimed by federal irriga-
ton works. This is going a bit too far and
the eastern congressman will be likely to
lend their votes to the irrigationists and re-
peal laws.

The first contract, to be awarded under
lit is for work to be done on tie
so-called Truckee river project, on the boun-
dairy between northeast California and Me-
vada. The work covered by the contract
amounts to about $500, 900, and
consists in the construction of
a canal about thirty miles long,
and a mile or so of irrigation ditching. It
will require at least two years to complete
this work None Of the other irrigation pro-
jects has advanced so far as to be put on
the market; by fall it is expected that the
Salt river project, IN Arizona, known as the
Tonic dam, will be ready for the contractor.
