THOUSANDS OF ACRES EARNED BY
COLONISTS AIDED BY GOVERNMENT

A very few hundred years ago, per
iod representing only drop in the bucket
OF time, all Manhattan island was sold by
the Indians for beads whiskey. gun and
other trash, the whole value OF which was
about s24.
Now, on that same Manhattan island,
$1,000 babies die every year chiefly for
lack of fresh air.
Thirty per cent Of all the children of the
poor there die under five years Of age
And this Is a permanent condition.
There is no promise that it will ever be
better
In the crowded part Of the city where
the poor are being dispossessed by thous-
ands in order to get one or two dollars a
month more for damp and dingy rooms,
the mass of human beings is so great that
they rub elbows all day long and often

5.-The establishment of bona fide wOr-
thy families on farms which are not to
exceed forty acres irrigated, and eighty
acres nonirrigated land, to be paid for in
easy instalments
Two OF three years age the United
States began the accumulation of fund
for the reclamation of arid lands by set
ting aside for that purpose the proceeds
from the sale of public lands. That fund
now amounts to about S20,0O0,O00.
Officials of the geological survey say
that the area of lands in the west that
have been reclaimed by irrigation is about
100000 acres. With government aid this
area will be doubled in about ten years.
Without government aid farmers would
make small additions by digging bitches,
but there would never be a substantial in
crease. Private enterprise on a large
scale is impossible The geological survey
officials declare that all the large irriga-
ton companies have either become bank
rupt or are run at a loss.

COURT ORDERS
WARRANTS PAID

The superior court has instructed Coun-
ty Treasurer Reed to pay to City Treasurer
Atkins the $4,000 school warrants issued
for the Tourist hotel property.
An amended answer was filed by the de-
Tense, contending that the warrants for
this site should not be paid from the gen
eral fund, but that a special levy had been
made to secure the money for such i'm
provements.
The court held that, as the money
derived from the levy for improvements
went into the general fund, any cost for
improvements should be paid out of this
fund.
Treasurer Reed win not appeal the case.

ROB RIVERS OF

DAWSON, June l3-Four great dredg

bottom of the Stewart river which emp.
ties into the Yukon about 10 miles above
Dawson. The big machines will be con

William Oglivie, former governor of the
Yukon, is at the head of the enterprise
He tested the bars of Stewart with a
prospecting dredge last season and found
indications good enough to warrant the
expense of building the big dredgers. Mr.
Oglivie's company has leased from the do
minion government ITO miles of the river

ing ground to keep hundreds of men EN-

Farm Labor In Demand.

1t is estimated that in seven states
out west $4,000 lnen will be needed
this summer to harvest the wheat crop.
Crops are increasing faster than labor
to secure them can be had. and this,
too. In the face of the fact that nearly
100000 immigrants a year are com
ing to America. Last year college stu
dents were attracted to the west by
the offer of $3.50 n day and board and
lodging. but so many fell by the way
side in the hot sun that scarcely enough
remained to marry all the daughters
OF the rich farmers. Harvesters can
find employment from May to nearly
October. moving up from Texas to Can
ada. Wages are high, and there is
plenty to eat With a foreign war now
in progress and the regular demand for
foodstuffs in the countries in Europe
which always buy from Americans on
the increase. the outlook for a great
business in exporting agricultural prod
acts is observation-disclosures Herald.

A Frightful Accident.

A laborer was on his way to his
work one morning as a through train
was about to pass a little station
where a crowd had assembled for the
way train, due in few moments.
A child who had strayed to the edge
of the platform seemed about to lose
her balance in her effort to get good
view of the oncoming engine
Quick as flash the workman jump
ed forward, tossed the child back to a
place of safety and was himself grazed
by the cylinder, which rolled him over
on the platform pretty roughly.
Several people FASTENED to his as
sistance, but he rose uninjured, all
though with face expressive of grave
concern.
"Confound it! Just my lucky' he ex-
claimed, drawing a colored handker
chief, evidently containing luncheon,
from his pocket and examining it rue

POWER OF ORGANIZATION.

Ira nsforms the Slave Into Man
and Makes the Weak Strong
Organization transforms the slave in
to man. 1t gives voice to the dumb
and a vote to the disenfranchised 1t
makes the helpless irresistible. 1t
gives authority to those who have been
despised. 1t straightens the bent back
Of the hireling and the drudge and en-
ables him to look his employer in the
face without revenge or fear. 1t en-
ables common coal miner like John
Mitchell, who was kindergartened in
the breakers and educated in the pit
to do more for his fellow workers than
could be done by all the presidents Of
all the universities in America.
The military general was the first to
find out the magic of organization.
Thousands of years ago he discovered
that hundred well drilled men could
defeat a mob Of thousands of undis-
ciplined warriors. A century ago the
great French thinkers, Fourier and
Saint Simon, proclaimed the fact that
organization should be applied to in
dustry as well as to war. Our Ameri-
can capitalists were the first to realize
this. and the result has been the piling
up of enormous fortunes and the form
ing of corporations and trusts.
The working people realized the ben
efits of organization at about the same
time as the capitalists; but, being so
much more numerous, they could not
organize so quickly as their employ
ers had done. When they are organ
lied completely their numbers will
give them such a political and indus
trial power that the future of the re-
public will be in their hands.-Herbert
N. CasSon.
