Co., South Mountain, came over here
this week and remained short time.
before starting east to spend the winter
with friends near Chicago. 1t is the
second time only that Bob has shown
his pleasant face here this summer
He had nothing to report about the
properties in which he is interested
further than to say that the showing
for making great property out OF the
Standard group looked more dattering
than ever. The company was now run
ming a crosscut to cut the big carbonate
ledge to drain it Of water. He said that
the deal made by Mr. Darlington. Sc
curing an option on the Sonnemann
properties nearly a mouth ago, looked
like business, and that the Pittsburg
parties whom Mr. Darlington had in
terested in it were expected out there
this week, TO put strong force of men
at once to work on the properties.
Charles Childs, OF Murphy, the pro
moter Of The proposed Sinker reservoir
and irrigation enterprise, spent yester-
day in town-his first visit here. For
more than two years, Mr.. Childs has
been making surveys and estimates 81
the amount of lands on the Snake river
plains which, if supplied with water,
could be as fertile and fruitful as any
IN Idaho, and has found they are great
er 10 area than there is water to sup
ply. He has planned a system Of reser-
voirs in the canyons Of Sinker Creek,
to catch and hold the melting SHOWS
which pile up on War Eagle and are
drained into that stream, making it
torrent during the spring and early
summer months. With these stored
waters, by an inexpensive system OF
canals, he has figured out how a large
quar- tity OF these splendid lands on the
river plains can at a comparatively
small expense be reclaimed. He has
had several eastern capitalists visit the
locality and look over the proposition
and his estimates and has found men
willing to put their money into the en-
terprise, which now only awaits uego-
tiations for the few little canyon ranch
es required for the dams and reservoir
sites. If Mr. Childs can procure these
without having to pay exhorbitant fig
ures Jor them, we may expect to see an
enterprise started in Owyhee which
will transform large section Of its
now arid aud worthless lands into iruit-
full farms, equal to any in the state.

MORALES GIVES
UP PRESIDENCY

San Domingo, Jan. 15.-General
Morales, the fugitive president who
took refuge in the American legation
Thursday night, yesterday resigned the
presidency. The resignation was ac-
cepted. He will leave this city on board
the United States gunboat Dubuque,
bound for Porto Rico. The former
president will be accompanied by
Enrique Jimenes. Vice President
Caceres, who has been acting as presi-
dent since the time Morales fed from
the capital, is now, according to the
constitution, president of Santo Do,
mingo. The change in government
does not imperil the negotiation for a
treaty between Santo Domingo and the
United States. Caceres is favorably
inclined toward ratification OF the
agreement reached. Morales, it is
said, was recently hidden in a cave,
nursing his wounded leg. He is now
helpless and in the hands of his medi-
cal attendants.

Rear Admiral coghIan Declares Fast
Ships Are Needed.

New York, Jan. 15.-In an address
before the Patria club last night, Rear
Admiral Coghlan, commandant of the
New York navy yard, delivered an adj
dress on The Navy in which he did not
spare criticism. He said that while on
paper the United States in 1908 would
be in second place as a naval power,
yet if there were stricken from the
lists such vessels as the sainted Ore
gon, now second rate battleship, that
instead of first line, the United States
would not rank better than fifth or
sixth among the sea powers. There
is but one kind of fighting ship" SAID
Admiral Coghlan, ''and that is the
speedy battleship of the line" All
others are doubtful quantities.

Washington, Jan. 12.-Interest was
injected into the Philippine tariff de-
bate in the house by a 'Massa-
chusetts idea" tariff exposition by Mr.
Mccall of that state; by a character
study of the Filipino by Mr.. Long
worth of Ohio and by a defense of
President Roosevelt by Mr.. Pou.
democrat of North Carolina. Besides
these, there were a number of
speeches delivered on the merits of
the bill, nearly all of which were in
opposition to the measure. Mr. Brous-
sard of Louisiana opened the discus-
sion with a speech against the bill.
BY jugglew," he said, "the whole
sugar product of the islands could he

be the essential factor Of the success
of the vast irrigation projects of the
west, and that its death knell will be
sounded in the passage or the pending
measure. Mr.. Lamar of Florida said
the bill was in the interest of the
tobacco trust and meant the break
ing down of the Chinese exclusion act.
as far as cigar manufacturing is con
cerned Mr.. Howell of Utah and Mr..
Clark of Florida both opposed the bin.
Mr.. Crumpacker of Indiana favored it,
and Mr.. French of Idaho closed the
discussion for the day against it. In
15-minute speech Mr.. Longworth of
Ohio gave the house his impression of
his Philippine trip last summer. He
was greeted with applause ana
marked attention was given his casti-
cation of the Filipino character. He
favored the bill as the best means of
developing the Filipino into condi-
ton of self government, at which mo
ment he would be more than giad to
drop the islands. Il cannot bring into
my mind that there's any brilliant
future for the Philippine islands and
with the sole exception of the love
for family and home that the average
Filipino possesses, / can see nothing
bright in the Filipino character" he
declared.
The passage of the BILL" he said,
would not damage one iota any
American industry or American labor
employed in that industry. No one
after smoking one native cigar" he
said, would want another, and with
only one island on which sugar could
be raised and that without a harbor,
he saw no danger from that source.
Il for one" continued Mr.. Long
worth, "am not in favor OF holding the
Philippine islands as part of the
United States moment longer than
we absolutely have to-" This state
ment was met with general applause,
but particularly from democrats. Il
am in favor of turning those islands
over to the Filipino people" continued
Mr.. Longworth, ito govern themselves
at the very first moment that they
proved to us that they are capable
of governing themselves. How soon
that time may come providence alone

Washington, Jan, 1.-THE senate
in secret session discussed the
status Of Senator Bacon's Moroccan
resolution for three hours and In the
end 1t was left on the calendar. SEN
ator Clark of Wyoming, chairman of
the judiciary committee. introduced a
bill authorizing the attorney general,
solicitor general and other officials of
the department of justice to begin
and conduct any kind OF legal proceed
ings, civil or criminal, in any court
of any judicial district or before any
quasi judicial body, whether or not
they reside in the judicial district
where such proceedings are brought
Before going into executive session
the senate listened to a speech by
Senator Hepburn in support OF his
bill creating national board for the
control of corporations, in which he
denounced Wall street because of its
alleged interference with the affairs
Of the country. He said that when the
street could not dictate the financial
course Of the government 1t was ever
ready to threaten disaster and he
pleaded for legislation that would rob
1t of such power for evil.
The Philippine tariff debate in the
house consisted more of party man
euvering for advantageous campaign
material than of discussion Os the
question at issue. The tariff was the
text of the speech by Mr.. Grosvenor
of Ohio, who began the debate, and
of an extended reply by Mr. Williams,
minority leader. Mr.. Grosvenor's
speech was spiced with witticisms and
enlivened with interruptions from
Champ Clark, to whom Mr.. Grosvenor
aimed most of his argument Mr..
Williams outlined the specific tariff
doctrine Of the democratic party and
held that the republican tariff was
not, as so often claimed, responsible
for the property Of the country. To
prove this, he cited the prosperity OF
Canada, Mexico and other countries
at the present time, and the depres-
sion of these countries during the
hard times of 1893. Mr.. Adams of
Wisconsin opposed the bill but ad.
vocated readjustment OF tariff on
business principles. Mr.. Mckinley
of California spoke in favor of the
pending measure and pointed a finger
of warning towards the glowing in
dustries of Japan.

EDITORIAL COMMENT
FARMING IS UNDERGOING CHANGES.
w. c. Black, Editor

THROUGHOUT the whole country there is an awakening Of
! interest in agriculture. Farming as an occupation is
taking a much higher position among Industrial activities. 1t is
coming to have the dignity of profession; and rightly so, Tor III
order to be in the highest sense a successful farmer, one must be
more than an able bodied man who can drive a plow team and
pitch hay. He must be a business man, conyersant with the
economic conditions that affect the marketing of his produce,
and a man able to conduct the affairs of his ranch so 5 to de
rive the largest returns at the least expense of labor and time
He must be a student of nature, learning the secrets OF the soil.
the air, the water and The sunshine, and the relation Of all these
to the growing plant. Especially in a new country like ours,
he must be an Investigator, an experimenter, in other words a
scientist. How little we really know of the possibilities of our
valley; perhaps crops that we have not thought of as suited to
conditions here may become tie important products Of this
locality.
Most of us, however, have little time or money to spend on
experiments that may yield us no return of profit, and because
this is genera ly true throughout the country at large. the govern
nent has established experiment stations i'll all the states and
territories. Now a-days the farmers of the nation are waking up
to the benefits to be derived from both state and national agri-
cultural institutions and are calling upon them for aid and ad-
vice. Almost three hundred "Farmers Bulletins have been
issued by the Department OF Agriculture at Washington covering
a wide range of subjects. These publications are very practical
treating of such subjects many of them being written by farmers
who have made Il special study of certain phases of agriculture.
They are absolutely free and will be sent to any address in the
United States. If you haven't a list of these publications send to
the Secretary of Agriculture at Washington for a list of the titles,
or if there is any particular line of information you desire, write
for all publications bearing upon that subject. The L. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture was established for the good of the farmers
of the United States; the Nevada State Experiment Station was
established for the good of he farmers of Nevada Let us take
advantage of our benefits.
