NAME YouR DELEGATES.

Q INCE UTAH Is TO HAVE the Ma
y tional Irrigation Congress this
year it behoOves the state to have the
best possible representation Of properly
sppointed delegates at that gathering.
Idaho. Wyoming. Colorado and Nevada
should also have strong delegations,
and the sooner they are appointed and
their acceptances assured, the more
surely will these states have the kind
Of delegations their great irrigation in
terests warrant.
The basis OF representation is as fol-
lows:
Governor Of each state and territory
20 appoint ........................ 20
Mayor of each city of more than
$4,000 population ................... 4
Mayor Of each city of less than $4,000
population ........--.... ............ ?
Each board o. county commissioners 2
Each Chamber Of Commerce, COM
mercial club or real estate ex-
change .-................ ............ 2
Each organized irrigation. agricul-
tural or live stock associatiOn...... 2
Each society Of engineers. ?
Each irrigation company. emigration
society or agricultural college, and
each college or university having
chairs OF hydraulic engineering or
forestry ..-................... ....... ?
Members OF the United States SEN
ate. house Of representatives and MEM
bers Of any state or territorial COM
mission are ex-officio delegates.
The basis Of representa- ton is broad
enough to provide for delegations from
every interest affected by the delibera-
ton of the congress, and Utah par
tIculariy should have a very large at
tendance because it's agricultural fu-
ture will be determined in a large
measure by the results of this congress.
While the Irrigation congress Is not a
legislative body. its recommendation
carry great weight with the national
legislature on all questions related to
irrigation. This is the first convention
held since the people have become
acquainted with the scope of the fed
eral irrigation law; Investigations held
since the Colorado Springs congress
furnish important data for the discus
sions OF the convention, and its final
recommendation will influence strong

cAssIUs NJ. CLAY.

ASSIUS MARCELEUS CLAY has
~ gone 70 his reward. His name
doesn't mean much to this generation,
perhaps the last generation is unfami-
liar with his life and his work For
nearly century this man lived: for
perhaps quarter Of a century he had
lived in a solitude unbroken except
at intervals by the outbreaking Of his
own eccentricities. Toward the last it
was said that the sage of White Han
was Of unsound mind. Certainly his
actions indicated It
Laboring under the deIusiou that ali
the world was against him, even as in
his young manhood, he was against
all Of his own little world. he barri-
caded himself in his mansion and re-
fused 20 admit any one. It was only
through court proceedings that those
who loved him We're enabled to visit
and take care Of him in the last days
Of his life.
throughout his ninety-three years OF
life Mr.. Clay was a man of strong
and uncompromising convictions. Born
in Madison county. Kentucky. in 1910,
be graduated from Yale in 1892 and
soon afterward became an ardent aboli-
ZIONIST. No small amount Of courage
was required for Clay to take this
stand. He was one of the weaIthiest
young men in Kentucky His holdings
il. land. in negroes. in livestock. were
enormous.
His ancestors had believed in slavery.
Frsfa II.
material prosperity seemed to depend
on the institution of slavery and its
continuance in Kentucky More, e
abohtionist of those days was the
most despised. in the south. of human
creatures. No jibes were too cutting.
TO taunts too keen. no curses too deep
&c be used against abolitionists No
rOdy knew this better than Clay but.
With all his soul ne believed the slaves
should be free and 10 amount of threats
nor abuse could swerve him from the
course he had marked out.
First. he freed his own slaves. Then
he began making speeches in favor OF
abolition. He was bitterly assailed by
press and pulpit. he was obliged to
cary arms in his own defense, he mar
rowly escaped being Iynehed ON several
occasions. but he kept at his work In
1916 he had the supreme courage to
establish an anti>slavery paper, the
True American" in Lexington. An
indignant populace wrecked the Office
Of the paper and the owner barely es-
capped death. But Clay persisted until
the war with Mexico broke out. when
he went to the front with Colonel
Humphrey MarshalPs Kentucky regi-
ment.
At the close Of that conflict he re-
turned to Kentucky and ran for COVER
nor on an anti-slavery platform. Of
course he was badly beaten. During
the following few years he urged the
organization and helped to organize
the Republican party. When Lincoln
was elected president he sent Clay to
Russia as ambassador. a post that ne
held with credit until 1869. He never
held another public Office. but. until
1880. he was figure of national promi-
renee.
Mr.. Clay's independence Of thought
is apparent from the statement that he
supported Greeley for president in 1872,
Tnden in 1876. Hancock in 1880, Blaine
in 1854. Cleveland in 1888 and in 1892
and Mckinley in 1896.

III you have catarrh you have probably
tried catarrh remedies; and you have
probably not been cured. Catarrh of the
Nose. Throat, Stomach or Bowels is due
to depleted nerve force and TO an altered
condition OF the mucous structure. The
first step toward the cure of catarrh is
to renew the depleted nerve force. The
second step Is TO make the blood rich
with cell II tissue building material.
The nerve force must be renewed or
there is a bad circulation of blood; this
within itself causes catarrh. Kill the
nerves in your arm M it hangs help
: less at your side; deplete the nerve force
10 a sufficient degree and your arm be-
comes paralyZed, the blood circulation
imperfect. Deplete the nerve force in the
nerves of the nose, throat. stomach or
bowels and at once there is Il bad cir
culatlon of blood and congestion of the

of cell life. Il decaying of tissues.

contains the principal ingredients of
nerve force and cell life in the exact
form in which they are found in the
human body. II is the only remedy
known to man that will actually renew
the depleted nerve force and rebuild the
decayed and degenerated cells and tissues
of your body. 1t is good for almost any
disease. 1t is absolutely harmless. l tell
you just what it contains, so that you
will know what you are taking. 1t is
especially adapted TO the treatment OF
cafarrh in any and all forms. / do not
ask you TO TAKE my word for the virtues
of this remedy: neither do | ask you to
take the word of others. Here is my
proposition: Take my treatment: if il
succeeds. you may pay me; if it fails.
pay nothing: o are the judge; your
word decides the matter. The treatment
is composed of four large bottles of my
wonderful discovery. Force of Life. and
such special remedies as your case may re-
Quire. 1t il all sent to you express charges

regard to the nature of your complaint. the
exact stage to which 1t has progressed and

the only remedy that strikes at the real

Its wonderful curative power.
