Parker Promised

New York, Oct. 1S.-J. Martin
Miller, Washington correspon-
dent of the News, sends his
newspaper tonight a story of the
st. Louis convention deal, par
ties to which were August Bel
mont, David B. Hill and William
F. Sheehan, and their purpose to
provide for Parker in case Of
his defeat. Mr.. Miller says:
Essential points in the bar
gain by which Judge Parker was
induced to resi- gn as chief Judge
of the New York court Of appeals
have been sufficiently verified by
others to show that a definite I'M
derstanding existed between the
present democratic presidential
candidate and his chief promo
tiers whereby Parker will receive
a salary equal to that of the
president Of the United States,
or more than four times the
amount he received as presi-
ding Judge of the court of ap-
peals.
Hill and Belmont were deter
mined to get control of the
democratic party and Wrest it
from the Bryan crowd at any
cost. To this end they set their
hearts on the nomination Of Par
ker. In reply to opportunities
Parker would explain that he
was happy and contented. He
liked law. It had been his life's
work. He said he was not a rich
man. He owned Rosemount, his
farm, and he had his family
amply protected by his life in.

Gigantic Scheme
To Dam Missouri

To Dam Missouri
Pioneer Press: In construct
ing a huge dam 100 feet above
the water level across the Mis-
souri, River in North Dakota near
the Montana line, the people Of
North Dakota plan to kill two
birds with one stone. They plan
first to irrigate approximately
100000 acres of land, now
practically worthless, the second
to minimize the danger from
floods along the Mississippi ri
yer in Kansas and other southern
states.
United States Senator III. C.
Hansbrough of North Dakota,
author of the national irrigation
bill which was passed by con-
gress in 1902, said to a Pioneer
Press reporter, that he intends
to present the project at the
next session of congress. Speak
ing about the plan of damming
the Missouri river he said:
1T will not be many years be-
fore North Dakota has more
acres of irrigated land than any
other state in the union. There
is no doubt that we have the
land and of the very best quality
in unlimited quantities. When
we consider that nearly all the
water that comes out of the east
ern slopes of the Rocky Noun
tains passes through Dakota, the
problem with us is simply to get
the water and the land together
The lower bench lands along
the Missouri river can be served
with water by gravity ditche:
sand the use Of improved pump
ing machinery.
"All this can be done under
The existing national irrigation
law, but to utilize all the f1oot
water of the Missouri river i
will be necessary to construct
dam across the stream at som,
point southeast of the Montan;
line. The British government
has damned the river Nile il
Egypt and brought under irri
cation between A, 900, 600 and 5,
600, 600 acres Of land. By dam
ming the Missouri river the are
that will be reclaimed will not b
far short Of 10. 100000 acres.
<sOf the feasibility of such a.
enterprise competent engineer
do not have the slightest doubt
There is on reason why a dar
cannot be constructed in tn
Missouri river 100 feet above til
water level. The great Bohi
dam, which is to be constructe
in conjunction with the Panam
canal, will be ninety-six fee
above the water level. A 10(
foot dam in the Missouri Woul
rise the level Of the stream so q
to admit of the impounding
all the flood waters that no.
go down the stream, flooding th
Mississippi valley, to the d.
struction to land and property.
In the rolling country on eac
side Of the river are man
natural reservoirs in which thes
food waters would be gathere
iii the food season and from tI1es
subreservoirs the water could i
taken by irrigators as needed.
S The government can we
afford to construct such dam
q finnish the destructive fooe
that occur from year to yea
and BY utilizing the water K
irrigation purposes the Wealth-t
the nation will be greatly il
creased. What the British 60,
eminent is doing along the Nj
iii Egypt can be done BY Il
United States along the Nilsson
iii North Dakota. It is not
much q question OF cost as
the benefits.

Chicago. Oct. 5.-Under cover of
secrecy the woodworkers' union has
given up its struggle against the fur
niture factories of Chicago. The
strike has not been called off officially,
but the men have been told TO seek
their former positions. Most of them
have secured employment as individ-
Uals and without q union agreement.
The leaders of the organization deter.
mined 10 abandon the fight for the
present after the butcher workmen had
declared their strike of at the pack
ing plants. They carried their plan
into execution so quietly that the en-
ployers did not know what had been
done.
On the expiration of the old agree.
ment between the factory owners and
the union. in June. the manufacturers
association announced that it would
not be renewed because the Chicago
factories were paying higher wages
and working shorter hours than their
competitors in other cities. In 2t

asked for the same agreement they
had enjoyed the year before. The
pTopriCtOrs of 10 factories signed with
the union and reopeued.- The others
concluded 10 get new men and fight for
