IRRIGATION FOR
NORTH. DAKOTANS
Engineers of Reclamation Service
Expect Construction to Be-
- gin Next Spring.
BY w. w. .Iarmane-

Washington, Sept: lit is believed
by the engineers Of the reclamation
service in charge Of the work that so
far as the engineering features are con-
ccerned, the Williston, Nesson and Blu
Dakota, will be ready for construction
During the latter part of August a
party Of engineers visited North Da-
kota to locate feasible pumping prof.
ects. An examination was made and
Chief Engineer F. H. Newell directed
that preliminary surveys be pushed to
completion as soon as practicable, that
land owners whose properties would
come under the works might have clear
understanding of the plans of the recla-
nation service and full knowledge of
cost Of water right. .7..
The banks of the Missouri river, be-
tween Fort Bufords and Bismarck, 300
miles, have been carefully investigated
and it is believed to be feasible to lift
the water Of the river to the low flats
by pumping. ~
Extremely favorable features are
found in, the abundance of water and
in the cheap and plentiful supply of
fuel. The Buford- Trenton project as
planned will cover approximately 1890
acres, the Williston project $4,000, and
the Nesson project 28,600 acres. A
UOdfu VI consulting engineers WILL con-
vene at Williston, N. D., Sept. IS, to
consider designs for these systems.
New Policy Adopted.
Chief Engineer Newell Of the recla-
nation service, who has returned from
a two months inspection trip in the
irrigation states, announced today that
the reclamation service had adopted the
policy Of letting people who own land
which the government proposes irri-
eating reach an agreement among them
selves before anything would be done
in the actual construction. This state
ment was made with reference to the
Bismarck project in North Dakota and
projects in other states where there is
opposition to the government IS plans
"It has been found that it does not
do to rush things in connection with ou1
preliminary work. said Mr.. Newell
"We have found by experience that it
is better to place the facts before the
land owners showing the advantage OF
irrigation, then to let them talk it over
among themselves, and that an agree
ment is reached quicker than if ou1
representative continued to urge own
ers to come. This matter Of govern.
ment irrigation is a new proposition to
many Of the farmers and they do not
want to bind themselves to pay for
water until they can see what benefit
it will be to them. But unless there is

friend, Miss Carrie Brock, has
placed us under obligations for a
box of the sweetest and incest
strawberries we have seen this

in place of the usual abundant

they only had a few gallons of
these berries, about enough for
family use.

"EPITAPH.
"In memory of Miss Ann Mary
Roberts, She is not dead.
"She is not dead, oh say not so,
When one too pure to dwell below,
A sweet release from sin is given,
The spirit freed hath fled to
heaven.
Call not an angels visit death,
Thugh cold the clay and hush q
the breath,
A change so blessed can surely
claim
A less appalling, gentler name.
"She is not dead. but called away
Fom earth-and who would bid her
stay.
Since God look'd down on that
pure one,
And quickly clsim'd her as his
own.
No victory hath the grave obtained
No struggle; not thought was
pain'd;
All calm as twilight hour in spring,
If this be death it hath no sting.
"She is not dead. but liveth now,
Eternal life stamp'd on her brow,
Joys unconceived till now impart
Their full fruition to her heart;
All pain and sorrow, sin forgot,
Life everlasting is her lot,
She lives with Him who for her
bled,
If life be death, then she is dead. "

nothing worse than bad shaking up.
The fatalities occurred among the

Arrested Presidents Chauffeur.

Washington, June 21.-It has devel-
oped that President Roosevelt's chat
feur was overhauled for speeding while
carrying the president, his son, Theo-
dore, and two of the latter's friends,
along the conduit road to Grea Falls.
Two policemen, considering that the
Chauffeur was going at speed greater
than that allowed by law, gave kchase
and overhauled the automobile. When
they learned who the occupants were
they hastily Withdrew after the presi-
dent had cautioned the chauffeur toIslow
up little. u
The two policemen had persued the
automobile for half a mile and on cat
ching up with the it, charged the chat.
feur with running at the rate of 25
miles an hour when the police regula-
lions allow but 10 miles. The police
men notified the Chauffeur that he would
be required to appear in the police
court. when the president, who was in
the rear seat, inquired the reason. The
latter's identity becoming known, the
matter was dropped. When the police
Linen started after the automobile the
Chauffeur, it is thought, probably con-
cluded it was part of the program for
the protection of the president.

PAST WEEK OF WAR AND PEACE.
Big Battle Is Delayed Awaiting Peace
Negotiations.

The week has seen no important en-
gagements at the seat of war in Man
churia, where Oyama is gathering
large reinforcements from Japan, but
is apparently delaying his forward
movement in hope that further blood
shed may be averted by the adoption
of an armistice as the first step in
war situation has therefore centered
almost entirely in the efforts of Presi-
dent Roosevelt to bring the bellig'
erents together in a sincere effort to
establish peace.
The week has made it palmer that
the hopelessness of further fighting,
and that she is ready to end the war,
provided favorable terms can be OBJ
tanned from Japan. The cars gov
eminent has assented to the proposals
for a conference, which may be held
in this country after the signing of a
truce by Generals Linevitch and Oya'
ma The summer is likely to be well
advanced, however, before the two
powers will be able to agree to terms,
if, indeed, agreement be possible.
Russia, with her usual policy of
brave bluff, is stOutly affirming that
peace is out of the question if Japan
demands an indemnity. Japan is sue,
cessfully keeping sercet her terms OF
peace, but it is believed that she will
demand the cession of Port Arthur
and perhaps Vladivostock, with large
area of Manchuria, the virtual control
of Korea, and an indemnity to cover
her war expenses, amounting probably
to more than $vJv, 100000.
There is thus ample room for fail
ure of the negotiations, when they
shall have at last begun. This will
not be for several weeks.

MUTINY ON SLAv SHIPS.

Crews Displayed Cowardice When En-.
emys Presence Was Known.
Many tales of mutiny during the
battle of the Sea of Japan on the part
of the seamen Of Russian ships are
told with other incidents of the battle
in Japanese newspapers received re-
Gently at Victoria, B. c., by the steam
er Athenian.
Two gun crews on the Dimitri Don
skoi, which had been torpedoed at
night, mutinied when the presence of
the enemy was suspected, and were
only kept at their spiritless task under
threats of being shot down. A petty
officer of the Donskoi said the atti.
tude of many on that vessel under fire
was cowardly in the extreme. and
when the facts were known officially
many prisoners now in Japan would
not seek to return to Russia at the
end of the war.
