They are the recent floods IN Siberia

which some ten million marks has

TO SHOW UTAH FRUIT.

The splendid prizes offered by the
Irrigation congress FOR the finest dis
plays Of fruits, should encourage Utah
growers 10 put forth special efforts to
show the excellence of Utah products,
aud we Rave no doubt On excellent eS-
hlhit win be made. II has been iug-
gested by contemporary that the
state board Of horticulture should
shoulder this responsibility and spend
several hundred dollars in the effort
to procure fruits and provide for
credltable display.
We are informed by secy Joseph II.
Parry that while the members Of the
hoard are doing all they can personally,
to encourage large and worthy eN-
hIbit, there are no state funds available
which the board can use for this pur-
pose. Every dollar set apart for the
use Of the board is appropriated for a
special purpose AS before stated, per-
sonally they are doing all possible 20
uphold the credit Of the state in the
matter Of fine fruit exhibit at the
forthcoming interstate competition
The state legislature appropriated
5000 to aid the Irrigation Congress,
No further amounts are supplied BY the
state for any purpose connected with
the congress. The fruit growers of
Utah viii have to attend to this mat
ter themselves. Every needful induce
ment is offered Icy the executive COM
mlttee OF the congress In addition to
the magnificent silver cup given by
Senator w, A. Clark, the committee
will pay express charges, receive the
exhibits and take care Of the displays,
and we think there should be enough
get.up among cur fruit ralsers to for
ward their samples. At any rate It is
OF no use to require the Horticultural
society to 80 to expense, under the
mistaken notion that the state has
provided that body with funds that can
be used for such a purpose,
We learn from the committee that
fine display Of fruit IS likely TO come
from Oregon This ought to stimulate
UTAH Colorado and Idaho TO extra eX-
ertons Especially we would urge upon
our Utah frultgrowers efforts to obtain
the cup. 1t would be a shame to them
If they allow It 10 be carried away to
distant state But, by the by, surely
the executive committee win not con-
slider Oregon a part Of the arid or semi
arid region Of this country The fruit
ralsers who are popularity known as
Webfoots. living where 1t rains nearly
all the year round, may display their
fruits at the Congress but they ought
not TO lay claim to the cup Anyhow
let Utah come to the front with a first
class fruit display

PROF, NEwELLs REPORT.

The report made by Prof +, H. New
ELL Of the United States geological sur
vey, in reference TO the work that has
been commenced I'm Utah under the
National Irrigation law, Is OF great in
terest and Importance. The substance
Of II has already been published In che
Deseret News, and the Information and
suggestions It contains are valuable.
The Utah lake proposition which has
been so much discussed is treated as
"the most important project for the
development Of the arid lands Of Utah, -
which Il IS, undoubtedly. Mr. Newell
regards The plan Of reducing the area
of the lake so as TO decrease the eyap.
Grafton which is so great that "pro.
badly more water disappears into the
air than Is put TO beneficial use, as
eminently wise and practicable. The
engineering features of that work he
regards as not especially difficult what
It should consist Of does not fully APP
pear in the report. But Il ia evident
from his other remarks that he fayors
the dyking OF similar scheme, by which
the surface OF the lake could De- greatly
lessened. ard a large margin Of marsh
land on It's borders be brought under
cultivation He also advocates the stor-
ing Of waters in the mountain depres-
sions. thus keeping them from running
into the lake until the times when they
would be needed for irrigation,
The subject OF vested rights TO the
use OF the waters flowing into and
coming from that natural reservoir Mr..
Newell views as one requiring great
discretion and care in Us settlement.
He regards the fears Of water-usets
drawing their supplies from the lake.
that their rights would be disturbed
by changing rs level, as entirely
groundless; and he is sure that when
the plan is fully worked out their fears
win be completely allayed
The complications that may arise in
settling The various vested rights he
looks upon evidently with some concern.
The law protects those rights fully ana
properly. They cannot be abrogated,
no matter what plans may be devised
for the general benefit. The simplest
cheapest and most satisfactory method,
by which that harmony can be estab-
lished that appears necessary TO the
contamination Of the Utah lake scheme.
is that which has been several tines
suggested and which would have been
fully carried out, but for distractions
placed In the way by a few individuals
who think their water rights are IN
Danger, or are not sufficiently regard

Kansas city star.

The commission found that with the
payment Of 40 million dollars for work
already done at Panama. the cost OF
canals by the two routes would be
about the same. The Panama route,
would, however give opportunity for
the more satisfactory piece Of engi-
neering work since 1t would furnish u
canal one-fourth the length of the
other having fewer locks, less eleva-
ton of summit level and less curvature,
AT the same time Il would be less ia
vorably situated as a short cut from
the North Atlantic to the North Pa
cifc. The chief engineering disadvan-
tage at Nicaragua would be the high
err cost Of maintenance. Not only
would the channel be longer, but the
shifting sands off Greytown on the
Caribbean would entail a heavy ex-
pense for maintaining a harbor. Mr.
Noble estimated this difference in an
nual maintenance charges at sl,30O,OO0
Against this is to be set the economy
Of the Nicaragua shortcut.

full Of the public welfare, The own.
ers OF water righk should get together
and agree On plan Of action.
The new Irrigation law Of Utah pro-
Sidcs means for the settlement OF all
rights to the use Of water In this State.
Put il viii take long time time 20
make the official surveys and establish
aud record titles TO existing rights, aud
something definite by way Of mutual
understanding between the water-uscrs
Interested In Utah lake, ought TO be
reached without unnecessary delay.
When this Is assured. there will be
nothing IN the way OF the government
work that Is likely to benefit all the
counties companies and persons who
depend upon Utah lake and its tribu-
tarcs for their water supply. II is a
matter Of paramount importance, and
II should be viewed In the light OF
the greatest good to the greatest num-
ber"
The Bear river problem the Duchesne
river scheme, the Uinta river possibili-
tics, with the benefits that may be de-
rived from the conservation and proper
utilization or the waters from those
natural sources are carefully treated In
the report made by Mr., Newell, and
his suggestions are all valuable and
practical Utah should certainly have
her share of the aid afforded by the
National Irrigation law for the reclaim
alton Of the arid and semi-arid regions
and all her active and progressive lead
ing men should pse their influence to so
shape affairs that the means available
for that purpose may be obtained.

II is still too early. however, to con-
slider the pending treaty as lost, A veil
seems to be drawn over the situation
at Bogota, and although discouraging
reports continue to be published, their
entire correctness may perhaps be
open to question, In view of the fact
that interests favorable to the Mic
araguan route may inspire them. In
deed, 1t Is not at all improbable that
the present doubtful situation at Boz
gotta Is the work Of rival canal pro-
moters or Of interests which desire
no canal at all, or Of native blackmail-

boodling that takes place in some Of
our own American legislatures when
valuable franchises are at stake Is 1t
inconcelvable that i'm a country like
Colombia the issue Of ratifying this
canal treaty, which carries fran
chlse not easily estimated In money
alone, should be complicated and twist
ed In the native mind by the question
of the almighty dollar?
