Will Rush Gunnison Canal.

A. l.. Fellows, in charge of the Gun
nison irrigation project in Colorado,
states that he expects work to COM
mence on construction of cuts and the
tunnel without further delay. The sec
retary of the interior has approved the
bonds of the contractors and accepted
their contracts. Several large air
compressors and other heavy machin-
cry will be purchased in Denver for
the tunnel work. The contractors have
plans ready to commence on excavat-
ing the cut leading to the tunnel and
will begin this work Immediately. The
open cut will be half mile long. The
tunnel will be 10000 feet in length
and carry 1900 cubic feet of water
per second. After emerging from the
tunnel the water will be conveyed by
100 miles of canals and laterals and
distributed upon 125,000 acres of land.
Mr.. Fellows will take up the proposed
project for irrigating C0,000 acres OF
land by diverting the waters of the
Grand river to the high line ditch,
north of Grand Junction. Preliminary
surveys have been made and the pro-
ject found feasible. II a water users
association can be formed, so that all
of the water diverted will be used,
the reclamation service will proceed
with the project, the estimated cost
of which is $1,500,000.

PROVES GREAT POWER
When Regular Medical Treatment
Failed, Dr.. Williams Pink Pills
Cured Her Rheumatism.

Hundreds Of people afflicted with rheu-
matlsm have spent years under the care
OF excellent physicians in vain. Then
they have settled down to the conviction
that it is fastened on them for life. Mrs.
Dinsmore was not willing to join the
ranks of the hopeless merely because her
doctor did not know how to help her.
Here is her story:
Four years ago I suffered greatly
with rheumatism i'll my hands and
knees. After had been sitting q while
my limbs seemed SO heavy could hardly
walk Oh the first attempt. So long as
kept moving I was all right, but just as
soon as l stopped, something seemed to
settle III my knees and make them ache.
Ny hands were so bad couldn't touch
the palms of them on fiat surface; they
were swollen and panied so,"
"Did you call III a physician?"
IL doctOred steadily for over a year !;
then one doctor said: you have taken
medicine strong enough to kill almost
anything Still, it did not kill me nor
the rheumatism"
How, then. did you get rid Of it?"
eat different times had read in varl-
ous publications about DR.. Williams
wonderful Pink Pills for Pale People,
and finally decided to try them. took
them steadily for four months in ac-
cordance with the directions. By that
time was completely cured"
"Have you been free from it ever
since?"
Since then have had but one slight
return Of my trouble, and box or two Of
the same pills made me all right again. :"
Mrs. F. A. Dinsmore lives in hearty
enjoyment of her recovered health at
Woburn, Mass, entirely freed from the
grave .anxieties that rheumatism always
brings. When it appears i'll but a single
joint itshows that the blood is in faulty
state III the whole body. 1t NAV at any
moment break out elsewhere, and one Of
the dangers is that it may break out in
the heart and then the result must be
fatal. The only security is to keep the
blood all the time in perfectly sound
condition.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills make neafthy
blood. All other relief is superficial
This is thorough. These pills are sold
BY all druggists.

Proposed Ship Subsidies.

Subventions of IS per gross ton an
nually; subsidies for the carrying OF
mails from Atlantic coast and Gulf OF
Mexico ports to South and Central
America and Cuba, and from Pacific
coast ports to Japan, China, the Phil
ippines. Mexico. Central America and
the Isthmus of Panama; a tonnage tax
on foreign vessels entering United
States ports; the creation of naval
volunteer service, and the encourage
ment Of apprentices on ships in for
eign trade are provided for In bill
agreed upon by the joint merchant
and marine commission, which sub
mitted its report to Congress last
week.
The commission, composed of five
senators and five representatives, was
created during the last session of Con-
gress in response to a recommends
tion by President Roosevelt In his an
nual message December Z. 1903. An
exhaustive investigation was made by
the commission of the conditions OF
the American merchant marine and
American commerce, with view to
ascertaining the most feasible means
for their development. Hearings were
conducted during the year at nearly all
the important shipping and CONNER
cial centers of the United States.
The report deals at length with the
handicap upon American shipping Gre
ated by the subsidies and bounties be-
slowed upon most of the merchant
fleets of foreign governments. which
is placed in the van of the lower first
cost of foreign ships and the lower
cost of maintenance of these ships,
due, in both cases, primarily, to lower
wages.
A table is given showing that nearly
all of the foreign powers grant ship
ping subsidies. France pays more
than $S,000,000, and eight other for
eign governments more than 81 600, 900
each for the encouragement of their
merchant marine.
AS the first essential step in the re-
habilitation of merchant shipping the
commission proposes to create a force
of naval volunteers, composed of the
best officers and men of American
merchant ships and deep-sea fishing
vessels. Necessarily small at first,
means for healthy. and sure expan-
sion of the force is provided by the
payment of substantial retaners as an
inducement to enroll. 1t is understood

their seamens pay, besides this re-.
tainer, during their period of actual
instruction. The Navy Department
has asked for reserve of 10000 men

gress.
The report quotes the commissioner
of navigation to show that not more
than 10000 American citizens are in.
cluded in the enrolment of employees
on all the American vessels on salt
water, which go out of sight of land
for any time during the year Com
menting on this lack of material for a
naval volunteer force the commission
says:
''Out of these 10000 officers and men
probably not more than one.half would
be eligible for naval volunteer SER
vice. 1t is therefore manifest
that shipowners must not only be en-
couraged TO employ these naval vol
unteers. but encouraged to build more
ships to develop an increased naval
service. as well as to advance the in
terests Of commerce"

Out of the wllds they fiercely ride
Out of the wilds, and woe betide
Tho hapless wight who strives to stay

Beaten and crushed he Is flung aside
Like the spattering mire where the Co.'S
sacks ride,
And the CossaclSs turn and hoarsely jeer-.
Slaves of the tyrant who rules by fear.
Steady they ride with rhythmic thud,
Steady of hand and hot OF blood.
Theirs to act at the stern command,
Sabers ready and reins In hand;
Theirs to charge at the warning cry
Over the faces that silent lie,
TO spur and strike with hateful leer-
Tools of the tyrant who rules by fear
Onward they ride when all is done;
Red Is the pave where their horses run.
Heartless and soulless they sweep along,
Tuning the Tilt of some savage song,
Sabers I'm scabbards, bearded and brown,
Darkly they ride through the gates of the
town.
Ride till tho yellow dust hideth the rear
Slaves OF the tyrant who rules by fear.
