in Chicago is now practically completed
and that in Milwaukee will be finished to-
morrow.
Since last Sunday a series of tests have
been going on, which were intended to
tune" the instruments, and yesterday the
first successful messages were sent to Mil
Waukee. The thunderstorm during the af-
ternoon. brought the tests to an end for
the day.
The system is being installed by two
men from Marconi's personal staff, and
they have been at work in both cities dur
ing the last thirty days. A signal pole
240 feet high, which looks like a giant
flagstaff, has been raised on the lake
shore at the foot Of Walton place, and a
small building has been erected to shelter

AS soon as the system is in working
order 1t will be turned over to the COM

The BIG PROPRIETOR.
Irrigation Is Not Being Developed
for Him, Said the President
at Boise.
Western Country Can Shuttle Along
Without Him Preservation
Of Resources.

Boise, Idaho May 29.-President Roose-
Velt.s train arrived at Boise at 4:5O yes
teray afternoon, exactly on time, and left
again at $3.50 for the trip to Salt Lake CITY,
In his address he spoke principally on
Irrigation. good citizenship and the
Strengthening of the navy.
The forest and the grasses said the
president, are not to be treated as we
properly treat mining, that Is, as ma
terial to be used up and nothing left be-
hind. We must recognize the fact that
we have passed the stage when we can
afford to tolerate the man whose object is
simply to skin the land and get out. The
man is not an equitable citizen. We do
not want the big proprietor. It Is not for
him that we wish to develop irrigation.
lands and to keep our forests. We must
handle the water, the forest, the grass,
so that we can hand them to our children
and children's children in better shape.
"Inasmuch as I myself have passed a
large portion Of my life in the mountains
and plains Of this great western country,
feel a peculiar pride that it was given
to me to sign and thereby make into law
an act of the national government, to my
mind one of the most important acts made
into law by the national legislature-the
national irrigation act a year ago.
THE government, in my Judgment, not
only should. but must, cooperate with the
state governments and with individual en-
terprises in seeing that we utilize to the
fullest advantage the waters of the Rocky
mountain states by canals and great reser-
yoirs, which shall conserve the waters
that go to waste at one season SO that
they can be used at other seasons"

Canada Is Getting Many Undesir-
able Immigrants First Excluded J
by the United States.
Government Will Be Urged to En-
force Law and Add to It's
Restrictions.
Special to The Journal

special to The Journal.
y Winnipeg, Man, May 129-Canada is fast
becoming a scavenger for the United States
under the lax enforcement Of the immigra-
ton laws at Montreal, Quebec and St.
John by the dominion government. Hun
dreds Of diseased and other undesirable
foreigners from the continent of Europe,
who wish to get to the states, find that
they are practically excluded by the pres
ent stringent regulations at New York.
The continental immigrant agents and
steamship companies persuade these peo-
pie to enter the states by the way of Cam
ada. By so doing they kill three birds
with one stone. They scoop in the fares,
which would be otherwise lost to them,
they save 81 landing fee demanded by the
states government and they receive a,
bonus of IS a head from the dominion gov
eminent. 49,
The United States has lately tumbled
to the trick and as it objects to having
the country made the dumping ground
for the offal of Europe, it has been pay
ing particular attention to the northern
frontier by the way Of Winnipeg,
In February last it had but one inspect
or Of immigration in the whole of this
zone. Now it has Fifteen at work and the
results are shown b3t the fact that since
the middle of February no, less than $50
persons have been turned Back by the
United States officers out-of a total of
about 1880 who had applied for permits.
In other words, more than 25 per cent
of the people who land in Canada. and at
tempt to cross into the states yf1egiti-
mate means are refused entrance to that
country on the ground that they are GRIM
mails, diseased, likely to become chargeable
i nsome way to the United States govern
ment.
These people are not deported from Can
ada and consequently they chiefly set
tie in the northwest and are likely in a
short time to become a serious charge on
the provincial government of Manitoba
and the, territories.
The $50 cases referred to only touch
the fringe Of. the subject. and do not
include the large number who are allowed
to land on the pretence$of settling in the
northwest and who afterwards escape
across the border. Even the number of
refusals of those applying for permits
shows a steady increase. In February
only thirty were turned back; in March
the number increased to seventy five. In
April 40 were stopped and up till this
week 125 have been turned back in May.
There is a strong feeling growing in
the west against lax enforcement of the
law in this respect by the dominion au-
thorities and the government will be urged
not only to enforce the present law, but
to make its provisions more strict and in
keeping with those of the United States.

his lease covenants to repair furnishes him no

HOWE NOT GUILTY A DUMPING. GROUND
secy. Root Finds That the Charges
Preferred Against Him Are
Groundless.
His Request for a Court Of Inquiry,
However, Will Be
Granted.

Washington, May 29.-Secretary Root
has made public all the papers in con
nection with the charges made against
Major Robert l.. Howe OF having author
lied the brutal and fatal whipping of
hostile natives held as prisoners at Laoag,
l1uzon, in the spring Of 1900. Secretary
Root says:
Howze's character and conduct afford
very strong presumption against the
probability of his having done the things
charged.
The charges are sustained solely by
ex-parte affidavits Of a, large number OF
native Filipinos who were hostile to the
American troops.
Hunter Was PreJudced.
Major Hunter. who collected these af-
fdavits nearly three years after the Incl
dents to which they relate, appears, by
his own letters and the testimony Of his
brother officers, to have entertained a
bitter personal animosity toward Major
Howe. It Is clear that with the feelings
which he entertained Major Hunter was
not likely to be capable of making a
really impartial Investigation. and that
for this reason he was an unfit person to
be assigned to that duty
cruelties Never Existed.
The secretary quotes from a report OF
the Philippines commission into the
charges. It's findings were to the effect
that the cruelties charged never were
perpetrated.
Secretary Root concludes as follows:
Upon all the papers now produced it
appears that the charges against Major
Howe are false; that there were no such
beatings as are described in the affida-
Wits procured by Major Hunter; that
Major Howze'ss report upon his admins
tration Of the affairs at Laoag at the time
in question is not subject to any just crit
tcism, but rather merits commentator"
The major, some time ago, demanded
a court of inquiry, and tho he has been
exonerated by the secretary, his request
will be granted and the court convened.

ORGANIZATION EXPECTED
Babb Of Mitchell New President OF S. p.
Medical Society,"

MITCHELL, s. D.-The State Medical
society finished its work yesterday after
noon and after the banquet last evening
adjourned. Papers were read by DR..
Smith, of Marion Junction, and DR.. Tay-
lor, of Huron. Much of the time was
spent in recognizing the society on the
lines followed by the American Medi-
cal association, that of dividing the state
into districts. This was accomplished by
organizing nine districts embracing the
counties in the judicial circuits of the
state. Officers will be elected in each dis
trict and meetings will be held each year.
BY this method it is believed that much
more interest can be maintained.
The following officers were elected:
President, D. B. "A. Babb, of Mitchell; vice
president, DR.. c. B. Mallory, of Aber-
deem; secretary treasurer, DR.. J. L. Stew
art, of Irene. A contest came up over To-
eating the next annual meeting, The ply

examining board of physicians, gave a
