the killing of Policeman Davis, Of
Scranton. has never been solved. and

the letter refers TO one OF the other
of these cases. He is making an in

1.-The Lewis and Clark exposition Is

Pacific slope, although it is very
doubtful if the big fair will be ready
to receive visitors by June 1, the OPEN
ing day." said j. w. Cookery, who

grounds yesterday returning home this

an opportunity of visiting the grounds
can have no idea of the stupendous
amount of work and money it has
taken to bring about what will go
down in history as one of the greatest
displays of western enterprise and
progress ever seen.
There has been a tremendous
amount of work already done and
there is whole lot to do yet before
the fair win be ready for visitors, al
though the management has over 5000
men employed at the grounds. Visit

HAS THE RIGHT
TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF
EVERY OPPORTUNITY
Will Save Four Million Dollars on the
Freight Rates on Supplies for the
Irrigation Projects.

BY taking advantage of rebates on
supplies used in constructing its irri-
eating projects, which it can do under
a recent decision of the attorney gen.
imately 100000 in the next five
years, is the report that comes from
Washington City. 1t is roughly esti-
mated that the rebates on these ma
terials, which most western, roads are
willing to offer, amount to ten per cent
of the cost of a project. On the basis
of present calculation, at least $40,-
100000 will be expended under the ma
tional irrigation law in the next five
years and the fund will be 100000
to the good by reason of the liberality
of the railroads.
The recent furry over the acceptance
of such rebates, which grew out of
sensational declarations of the comp
trolIer of the treasury, proved to be
tempest in a teapot. The comptroller
was not the man to pass upon the le-
to hold that the secretary Of the inte-
rior was grossly violating the very law
which the attorney general was strug-
Cling so I1ard to enforce. But when
the question was submitted to the at
torney general he promptly upheld
Secretary Hitchcock, taking the broad
ground that under the reclamation law
the secretary of the interior is author
lied to take advantage of every op-
portunity that is presented to lessen
the cost of irrigation works.
AS has been shown, the rebates in
question were made voluntarily by
the railroads. and were accepted by
the government in the interest of the
settler. The railroads made no gain,
but rather sustained a loss by offering
such rebates, though they expect ultl-
matelv to benefit, and they will bene-
fit from the irrigation of lands tribu-
tary to their lines. The secretary OF
the interior did not benefit, but by re-
ducing the cost of a project he reduc-
ed the cost of water right to the set
tier. and wrought out benefit for the
man who needs it most. The purpose
sought to be attained was a perfectly
proper one, and in the opinion or the
attorney general it justified the means
taken to attain it.
The irrigation of arid land is a cost
Iv nrocess at best. The object of the
national irrigation law is to bring I'M
der cultivation vast areas OF ueser'
land that would never be reclaimed py
private capital, and to do it at a MIN
imum cost, and in a way less oppres-
sive to the settler.
