Committees so to stiiiweii.

Under the concurrent resolution
mentioned last week, the two houses
appointed committees to visit Still
water Mimi, for the purpose of in
vestigating the manufacture of binding
Irvine at the state penitentiary at that
place with q view to establishing the
Industry in Jackson prison. The joint
committees left for saltwater last
night and will be absent all the week.
The absence of these legislators may
retard action on important measures,
noticeably the primary election bill
now before the senate. :
A decided majority Of the members
of the lower house are evidently op-
posed to the municipal ownership OF
street railways. This issue was fought
out Thursday. the engagement being
one of the ffercest and most interesting
of the session. Rep: esentative Greusel
led the forces in favor of the joint res
olution which provided for the SUBJ
mission to the people Of a proposed
constitutional amendment giving the
people of Detroit to decide, by ma
jority vote, whether they wish to en-
gage in the operation Of street rail-
WAYS. The discussion of this subject
consumed one entire afternoon and the
resolution was killed by vote of 81
TO 90. The debate was acrimonious at
times.

It is estimated by the treasury department that the exports of the United States for the current year will reach the great total of $1, 800, 1000, ,0O0. It is interesting to note the growth in our ex- ports during the past four de- cades. In 1870, for the first time, the total reached the $500, ,OO0, ,O0O mark; and it took twenty years longer for the figures to swell to S750,000, ,O00, In 1897 they reach ed the grand total of one billion dollars and 50 per cent increase was recorded in the half dozen years that followed.

Her Mind Was Not Easy.

When Martin Marston reached his home late one night he found on the library table a letter ad- dressed to him in the handwrit- ing of his wife. He opened it, and, with deep emotion, read as follows:
 My husband: 1 am calling you by this name for the last time. 1 no longer love you and cannot continue to live with you as your wife. When you receive this I shall be many miles away. Do not try to follow me, as 1 shall never return to your house. Helen.
 Almost believing that his eyes had deceived him, he again read the letter. His reading was in- terfupted by a sound at the door. Looking up, he saw lis wife. Ills face lighted up instantly. Surely" he thought, "she has repented her rash act and has come back to my home and my love, prepared to ask me to for give her"
 'I have come back" she said, tO-"
 "Then your letter was a cruel mistake" said Marston, land you do love me-"
 "No, Martin, don't"
 "Why, then, did you come back?"
 "WelI, forgot to add a post script to my letter. New York Times.

Kansas Great Wheat Crop.

Kansas is again in trouble. The state has 60, 900, GOO bushel wheat crop about ready to har- vest and lacks 28,000 men of having a sufficient force to har- vestit. State Employment Agent Gerow says that he has issued call after call for men, but ap- parently his efforts are fruitless. It begins to look as though the farmers would have to hold up freight trains and press the tray cling hobos into service as was done last year if they would save their crops.

THE CORRECT POLICY.

It is not casting the slightest reflection upon the efficiency of the Arizona National Guard to say that the presence of federal troops at Morenci seemed neces- sary to prevent the possible shedding of blood and destruc- ton of property. Fifteen hun dred foreign miners, armed. marching and threatening, had been wrought up to such state of excitement by their leaders that they were ready to commit almost any crime in the calendar. To quote from the Clifton Cop per Era, "They captured the works and held all of the com manding positions in the hills surrounding the town. They had cut all the telegraph and telephone lines, and they were ready to fight when the cloud burst came, which seemed to have been ordained by Provi dence to prevent an awful slaughter of human beings"
 In calling for federal troops Acting Governor Stoddard act ed upon representations of the authorities at Morenci, who had been forced to abandon property they were guarding or engage in an unequal fight which meant not only their death but that of many others and the almost cer- tain destruction of all the great reduction plants i'll the Clifton MOrenci district.
 While the decisive action of the National Guard quickly brought order out of chaos, who who would care to contemplate a bloody conflict between the 200 militiamen and the 1000 or more armed strikers? There may be no doubt as to the ultimate rout- ing of the strikers, but at what cost? It is a credit to the acting governor and to the territory of Arizona that such calamity was avoided. The prompt and vigorous action in quelling an archy at Morenci by summoning d force sufficient to compel sub mission without bloodshed was the correct policy, and Stoddard ought to be commended, rather than criticized, for his action.

THE BOND PROPOSITION.

The decisive vote against the
 bond proposition in Yuma yes terday leaves no room for doubt as to the prevailing sediment on
 that question at this time. The Town Council and Mayor Pat terson were undoubtedly sincere in their efforts for the measure to benefit the people of this town, and tie petty influences which endeavOred to attribute ulteriOr and mercenary motives to them, or to anyone who favored the bonds, cut very little figure in this election. Such contempti- ble methods never carry any weight with fair minded people. The Sentinel believes the strong est influence leading to the result w&s the obligations assumed by Mir Blaisdell to give the town ample fire protection and filtered water and the wish of the people to give him an opportunity to fulfill these obligations. We do not believe the result of the cleo tiOn means an endorsement in the slightest degree of the aspersiOns and malicious insinuatiOnS of an insignificant few regarding those favorlng the bonds; it is, rather, an illustration of the spirit that is present in every American community-tO "give him one more chance"
 The Sentinel IS not yet pre- pared to acknowledge that the defeat of the bonds was for the best, but is the verdict of a ma jority and must therefore be ac- cepted-with the best grace pos sible. Mr. Blaisdell has prom ised to substantially remedy the defects complained of in the water system. It is now up to him to redeem his promises to tbp lpttor

More Than Doubled.

Few of us are familiar with the extent which the production of gold has attained in the United States during the last decade. To tell the mining man who had not kept tab on it that it had more than doubled would i'll all probability elicit disclamation. Yet such is the case, as is shown in the published official figures.
 In 1893 the gold production of the Unltcd States was $35, 955, : GOO; in 1901 it was S80, ,853, ,O7O. Year after year the production steadily increased up to the year 1900, when it amounted to S79, : Fl ,000. In 1901 it fell away to S73, 666, zoo, but the next year 0902l it rose to $50, 853,0 ,070. As California's quota will, it is ex- pected, be greater this year than it was last year, the probabilities are that the gold production of the United States for the year 1903 will show a further increase.

The Needles Eye says: "What irrigation will do for the land along the Colorado river was amply illustrated this week to
 the writer of this article. In company with one of the owners of a small tract of land situated
 just north of the car sheds of the Santa Fe, we visited the vine<
 yard of Lamar Brothers. The space of ground is not large, but under d wire netting 100 by POO
 feet square over 800 grapevines have been planted, and these vines, when the leaves are lifted, display to the visitor clusters of grapes which any portion of Southern California might we'll feel proud of. In fact they will be on the market two weeks ear Her than the ordinary product. The fruit is. large and some of the clusters are the finest ever seen on a vine. Of course these vines are raised by irrigation, but it only tends to show what irrigation may do for the desert when handled with judgmentdnd practical knowledge. Besides the grapes there were apricOts, some of them already ripening, and watermelons, nearly ripe, which would make the conscience of any race of people warp if it came to a consideration of the satisfying of the tastes of the inner man or the close adherence to a moral law which says "thou shalt not steal" Credit is due, however, to the Lamar Brothers, who have placed this acreage of land under water and made it productive, and for having dem onstrated so thorough, the pre- ductiveness of our local soils when once water is applied to them.

that is, it will increase it's pro- ductiveness just as much as would the acquisition of the additional land.
 A pumping plant large enough to ifrigate twenty acres will add the equivalent of a whole section of range.
 And any irrigation system which will irrigate a whole quar- ter section of alfalfa is as good as the permanent acquisition of eight sections of range.

THIRTY-TWO TO ONE.

Or, putting it briefly, one acre of irrigated alfalfa is worth as much as thirty-two acres of av- craze dry range.
 Six hundred and forty acres in alfalfa would beat 10000 acres of dry range.
 Twenty million acres of irri- gated alfalfa would carry more stock than the whole 620, ,000, GOO acres of government land Ill the west, and there is water enough runs to waste at the junction of the Platte and the Missouri to irrigate 10000, ,000 acres of land. That will give you some idea of what water storage by the na- tiOnal government means to the live stock industry.
 But let us turn from the con- sideration of the subject in its largest aspects to a view of it in it's smallest aspect.
 A windmill which will irrigate one acre of land in alfalfa will add the equivalent of 32 acres of range to the farm or ranch.

PRICES AND IRRIGATION
REMARKS OF GEORGE IT. MAXWELL At the Annual Convention of the National Live
 Stock Association at Chicago.

1 wish to say a few words up on a point which 1 think is one of the most important prOpOsi tiOns to be considered by the memLerS of this association from the west, and that is the relation of water for irrigation to live stock production.
 It is not acres which measures your profits, but the number of fat cattle or sheep you turn off in the course of a year; and this annual product is not in propor- ton to the number of acres you range over, but in proportion to the amount of stock food you turn into cattle or sheep.
 It is commonly said that it takes twenty or thirty acres of average dry range to carry a steer for a year, and there are places in the arid west where one steer would do well to live a year on 100 acres. One irrigated acre of alfalfa will carry one steer for a year.
 In an address before the Trans Mississippi Commercial Congress at Cripple Creek last July, MT. I. D. O'Donnell, one of the best known stock men of Montana, living at Billings, gave the fol lowing figures:
 "One acre irrigated alfalfa will produce 10000 pounds; one acre in inclosed pasture will produce 300 pounds; one acre range will average a production of 25J pounds; or, again, one acre of irrigated alfalfa will feed one steer 100 days; one acre of in closed pasture will feed one steer 20 days; one acre of average range will feed one steer ten days.
 Putting it in the form of sheep it will show as follows: One hundred and sixty acres IT, rigated alfalfa will run 1, 500 sheep one year; l60 acres of in closed pasture will run eighty sheep one year; 160 acres range will run forty sheep one year"
 Apply these figures to the problem of stock growing in the arid region.
 Taking the proportions given above in round numbers, and 160 acres of irrigated alfalfa will carry 146 steers for a year, and it would require something over eight sectiOns-5, 120 acres of dry range to carry the same number of cattle.
