For Reciprocity.

~ '~SfPtSSihJs
1--WE believe in reciprocity for foreign
nations on the terms outlined in Presi-
dent McKinley's last speech, which
urged the extension of our foreign mar
kets by reciprocal agreements when
ever they could be made without injury
to American industry and labor. It is
singular fact that the only great
reciprocity treaty recently adopted
that with Cuba-was finally opposed
almost alone by the representatives of
the very party which now states that it
favors reciprocity. And here again
we ask that the worth of our words
be judged by comparing their deeds
with ours. On this Cuban reciprocity
treaty there were at the outset grave
differences of opinion among our.
selves; and the notable thing in the ne
gotiation and ratification of the treaty
and in the legislation which carried II
into effect, was the highly practical
manner in which without sacrifice of
principle these differences of opinion
were reconciled. There was no rup-

practical outcome, the result of the
harmonious cooperation of two success

crosses. This is an illustration of the
governing capacity which entities us
to the confidence Of the people not only
in our purposes but in our practical
ability to achieve those purposes.
Judging by the history Of the last
twelve years down to this very month,
is there justification for believing that

This Is Miraculous.

Manhattan, Kans., March 14.-One
of the strangest cases that has ever
been heard of in Riley Co. is that Of
the three-year-old daughter of MT.
Jonas Brubaker of this place.
Some time ago the little girl took
whooping cough, which was followed
by pneumonia. When the pneumonia
left her. she was taken down with
malaria fever with at times symptoms
of Spinal Meningitis.
The family doctor brought her safe
ly through these troubles, but after
the fever Bright's Disease set in and
the doctors gave her up. Her father
tells the rest of the story:
I'VE began to give her Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and after she had taken
about three and half boxes, she was
entirely cured. Now she is well as
any child, running and playing as il
nothing had ever been the matter
with her. The doctors said she was
beyond the reach of medicine. Dodd's
Kidney Pills certainly saved our lit
tie girls life, when she was so far
into the chronic stage of Bright's
Disease that we thought nothing could
scye her."

with to make its desert lands blossom
as the rose. Mr.. l.. II. Taylor. dis,
trict engineer for the United States
Reclamation Service for Nevada, has
recently been in Washington and
reports the satisfactory progress of the
Truckee-Carson reclamation project,
os which he has immediate charge.
This project contemplates the utiliz-
alton of the waters of the Truckee
and Carson rivers for the irrigation OF
about $4,000 acres of sage brush des-
ert in western Nevada. These lands
VIII furnish homesteads of about so
acres each for about $500 families. 1t
Is expected that with the addition of
the towns and villages that will natu-
rally spring up in the district. the
population of the state will be in
creased in the next few years by at
least 10000 people.
Active construction is now in prog
gress on main canal about thirty-one
miles long, which is to divert the wat
reservoir on the lower Carson river.
There the waters of the two streams
will be mingled and impounded, and
thence led out upon the plains in the
vicinity of the Carson and Humboldt
Sink. Two contracts for the construc-
ton of different divisions of this canal
were made by the secretary of the In

tember IL. 1903, and the work is to be
finished by November OF the present
year. In the meantime, surveys for
the requisite system of distributing
canals are well under way. and the
department will be ready in the
spring to contract for their construc-
ton. This work will be followed by
the erection of dam which will form
the reservoir on the Carson river.
The reservoir will have total length
of about eighteen miles and will flood
over 10000 acres of land TO an average
depth of twenty eight feet.
The lands to be irrigated by these
works aggregate about 100000 acres,
situated in the lower portions of the
Truckee, Carson and Humboldt river
basins. In the upper valley of the
Truckee and Carson rivers some 10000
acres of additional Land will be sup
piled from works to be constructed
some time in the future. AS these
great areas are gradually brought un-
der cultivation. and a greater water
supply is required, ten additional res
ervoirs. including Lake Tahoe, are to
be added.

alluded to. there are fifty-one other

from Great Britain amounted in value
to as much as $1,000. The aggregate
value of these fifty-one articles
amounted to only s15,763. while our

Quartz creek, according to a dispatch

imbedded thirty-eight feet in the earth

use of a steam thawing plant to un-
earth the immense animal.
The hair and skin of the beast are in
a perfect state of preservation, al
though the flesh is somewhat decom-
posed and the big tusks. which remain
fastened to the skull. are in good con-
dition. 1t is estimated that the skele-
ton is worth $4,000. as there are but
one or two of them in existence in as
good condition as this. The masto-
don was discovered buried in an old
channel well in the zone of almost per-
petual frost. which accounts for its
good preservation.
