DEMOCRATS TO NAME DARK
HORSE.

A special dispatch to the Baltimore
III rald', from Washington, on Monday
says:
Before Chairman Jones of the Demo
cratic national committee left here for St.
Louis he said that it looked now as if a
dark horse would be nominated by the
convention there He could not say who
it would be, however, but he was under
the impression that it would be someone
who had not even been discussed.
Leader Murphy of Tammany Hall is
known to enertain somewhat similar
opinion, but he rather thinks that Mr..
Cleveland will be it, although his own
preference, of course, is Mayor Mcclellan.
The Southern democrats are giving
every indication Of expecting the dark
horse to appear. They are withholding
instructions for Judge Parker so as to
be free to act when the dark horse looms
up. Mr.. Murphy is encouraging them in
that attitude, and James M. Guffey, the
democratic boss of Pennsylvania, is also
on that tack.
Mr. Bryan has not flushed a candidate
from North Carolina, Texas or Arkansas
for at least four weeks, and the demo-
Gratis here are looking for him to trot out
his real favorte soon. Will he wear the
Hearst's color? they are asking Can it
be possible that Mr.. Bryan himself--oh,
no, nobody really believes that possible.
Warwick is his role, they think.
Tom L. johnson, Of Ohio, talks about
Folk of Missouri. That, perhaps, is be-
cause other democrats in Ohio are talking
about Col. James Kilbourne, of Columbus,
and it would be a terrible blow to Mr..
Johnson to have any democrat in Ohio
take rank over himself There is nothing
on the plum tree for Mr.. Johnson, and,
naturally, he does not want anyone else
in Ohio to get something.
Colonel Kilbourne is not an impossi-
bility, by any means. He is known to
democrats in The central states and the
Southern delegates expect to have to
take some northern man. Anyhow, Col
onel Kilbourne is as we'll known to the
Southerners as Judge Parker. The idea
of making inroads on the republicans in
Ohio is likely to prove tempting to the
Southerners. If the Ohio state conven-

At late hour on Wednesday night,
it was determined that the Democratic
State convention would be presid-
ed over by former Comptroller, Joshua
w. Herring, Of Carroll county, and
the indications were that instead of
sending four delegates from the State
at large to the national convention,
the number will be increased to eight,
with half vote each.

IRRIGATION ENGINEER REPORTS
YAKIMA LANDS MAY Be COVERED
Investigation by Government Engin-
GERS Shows Much Yakima Land
That Can Be Reclaimed

In his annual report to the chief of
engineer in charge of irrigation investi-
cations in Washington. has the follow
ing as the result of the preliminary
Investigations made by government en-
gineers during the past summer:
The fact that private capital has
heretofore largely developed the lands OF
the Yakima valley by private canals has
tended 50 far Ia prevent any extended
examination in that valley by the GOV
eminent engineers. While requests have
been made for examinations along the
Yakima river, the fact that most of the
lands of this valley are now in private
ownership makes the interposition of
the government delicate matter On
the one hand, people are asking that no
Interference be had with private devel-
opment, and on the other are citizens
demanding that the government should
supplement the existing systems.
mere are lOul lldtlS Ill lNt ukllllu
valley that might be reclaimed by the
government; those in Ahtanum basin.
those in Cowychee basin, those lying be-
tween Cowychc creek and the Matches
river, and the land in Wcnas basin.
The irrigable lands lie on ,loping hill
sides, and are already partially irri-
gated. All these lands are of excel
lent quality. These lands could all be
irrigated with the waters of Tietan riv-
er. But to do 30 would require the
construction of large storage reservoir.
and no examinations have yet been made
of such work An area to hold enough
water to reclaim the 100000 OF more
acres, in the four basin, above named.
would have to cover 1000 acres. ana have
a depth OF 80 feet Unless some lake can
be utilized. it i believed that no such
reservoir could be obtained without the
construction of very high and very
expensive dam.
In addition to the land, above de-
9cribed there is considerable body
farther down the river near Mabton
below the Indian reservation, which
contain, about 10000 acres, that could
probably be irrigated from Yakima rv-
er. This land lies on the opposite side
of the river from the tract now irrigated
by the Sunnyside canal. This tract
however, is now nearly all taken up by
homestead claims. ana very little now
remains. outside Of private holdings and

Speaker Hare on Irrigat ton.

For several months Dr. W. II. Hare
of North Yakima. speaker of the last
house OF representatives, has been gath.
ering statistics on irrigation and com
piling the laws of different arid land
states to show the best methods of
meeting irrigation problems. He went
down to Oregon to listen to speeches on
the subject and talked with Mai. Newell
the government expert, regarding the
possibilities of government aid in Wash
ington. Then just a. he was beginning
to believe he had gained an insight into
the irrigation problem and could take
up the fight the news came that an irri-
CATION conference had been called to
meet in Seattle. That was what DIR.
Hare had hoped for; all but the Seattle
part. He wanted to substitute North
Yakima.
DIR. Hare is at the Diller on his wav
to Portland, where he will attend the

ties are more deeply interested in the
movement than any other part of

cess with irrigation canals, but a better
system should be worked out that would
give relief to the arid lands of our part
OF Washington.
In those talks have had with Mai
Newell | have been led to believe that
there is a strong probability of govern
ment aid in the event our laws are SC
amended that the government can pros.

litigation and complications that would

been my hope that Yakima county
might cooperate with other sections OF
Washington in bringing about these

While the Confeder veterans and

exhausted and AZ counties have not
been paid. The appropriation last year
fell short SO, $50 and by resolution of
the legislature this was made good
from the surplus in the soldiers PEN

added to the rolls in the last year and
