dent OF the National Irrigation Congress-
calls to order the first session of the an
nuai meeting of that body in the taber-

Among the speakers will be Secretary of

Warren, of Wyoming. and Burton, of
Kansas Every phase of the subject of ir-
rlgaton will be discussed and the closely
allied subject of colonization of the great
plains and ranges of the West will re-
ceive attention
Practical Illustrations Of what irriga
ton is doing for the West will not be
lacking. From all quarters are coming
large exhibits Of grain and fruits. grown
in soil that few years ago was consid-
cred utterly useless. Practical iIlustra-
lions Of methods of irrigation was given
and a good part of one day will be de-
voted by the delegates to this feature.
Another important subject that will come

the principality, was dictated not only
by the alarming reports of wholesale
massacres and devastation daily ar

OF the powers towards the severity of
turkish repressive measures.
People here think that the anxiety
OF the powers seems to be manifested
chiefly in repeated admonitions to the

all the speed possible. kilograms from

an initiation fee which the union de-
mands." Schmitt says the money was
