WASHINGTON, Feb. E.-(special Tele-
gram edward Reeds Of Torrington. Wyo.'
manager of tho Whalen Falls canal, which
has been taken over by the reclamation
service under the North Platte project. is
in Washington for the purpose of clearing
up some misunderstanding as to the rights
or users of water under the Whalen canal
enterprise. A most interesting condition
exists in connection with this project The
reclamation service when It took over the
physical features Of the whalen canal it
was with the understanding that contracts
made with land owners to use the water
rights of the canal should remain inviolate
In the canal company. 1t now transpires
that some of the users of water In the
neighborhOod of the North Platte project
are in extreme doubts as to whether they
| come under the Whalen canal water or
under the North Platte project. In conse-
quence OF this misunderstanding the recla-
nation division, after q conference with
Mr.. Reed. has agreed to refer the whole
subject to Division Engineer Field. whose
headquarters is on the North Platte prof.
ect. with view of arriving at some agree
ment satisfactory to all parties,
Kipkaid Not a Candidate.
Lately there has been much quiet specu-
lation as to whether a new Richmond
might not enter the field for senatorial
honors in place of Senator J. II. Willard,
and that new Richmond is called Moses Z.
Kinkaid of tho Sixth Nebraska district.
Today. however, Judge Kinkald pushed
aside the gltterlng bubble that has been
dangled before his eyes by authorizing tho
following statement:
In view of letters / have been receiving
from friends in Nebraska, l deem IL proper
to state at this time that shall not be a

Working for photographers Pensions.
Congressman Pollard who some time ago
introduced special pension bill for an old
time military telegrapher, has been led to
abandon his special bill in view of the gen.
oral military telegraphcrs bill which
passed the senate a fortnight ago under
the direction of Senator Scott of West Vir-
ginia. Mr.. Pollard today had a conference
with Chairman Sulloway of the invalid
pensions committee of the house and urged
upon that gentleman the Importance of
passing the Scott bill, not only as tribute
but as a matter OF common justice to the
men who were connected with the tele-
graph corps during the civil war. Mr.. Pol
lard. following up this conference, brought
the whole matter to the attention of Con-
gresham Calderhead of Kansas, who
agreed to take charge of the bill before the
pensions committee.

Three or four ,weSks ago, when the prop
usition was first advanced. there were only
two members of the committee on agricul-
ture, Messrs. Wadsworth and Cocks of
New York. who favored the proposition to
abandon the free distribution of seeds
Members of congress, as a rule, have Re
garded this free seed distribution as a
necessary evil and few of them have dared
oppose it, But Secretary Wilson of the
way, chief of the bureau of plant industry
in that department, have admitted that the
seed distribution serves absolutely no good
purpose. Then, too, state oranges of Pa
irons of Husbandry have been sending in
protests against the continuance of this
useless waste of public money. When the
subcommittee of the committee on agricul-
ture which had charge of the appropriation
bill reported the measure to the full COM
n1ittee it contained a clause appropria ting
$4,000, as usual, for seeds. Much to the
astonishmont Of every one. including the
chairman, a motion to cut out that appro-
priation was adopted by vote of s to l.
or course there is a chance, and an en-
cellent one, that It will be restored when
the bill comes up for consideration in the
house of representatives. But the first
step has been taken and there is a chance
now that the appropriation for seeds which
no one wants and which few dare to OF
pose will eventually be stricken from the
annual appropriation.

Sir Thomas Upton Sails.

London, Sept. 21.-Sir Thomas Lip
ton sailed today for the United States.
His visit, it is said, to large extent
is of business nature and is not di-
rectly connected with boat racing,
hut those who know him well are in
clined to believe that he will not al.
low the opportunity to pass without
talking over the plans for the chal-
lenge for the American cup, with a
view of challenging the holder for
next year 1t is generally understood
that Sir Thomas Upton is as eager as
ever to capture the American cup and
ne will surely send challenge if he
can obtain a reasonable assurance
that the boat could be designed on
this side of the ocean equal to any
thing the Americans could put in the
water. He has discussed the matter
thoroughly with designers on this
side. but has not yet reached def
mite conclusion.

lands and will make that section the
arden spot of all the earth.
Those who have studied the ques-
ton say that in Louisiana and Hol-
land, where the soil is identically the
same, that great dykes had TO be
erected to keep out the waters of the
sea and after having dyked the land
it had to be drained with immense
pumps and the water not only had to
be pumped out but had to be pumped
in for the purposes of irrigation. Here
nature has erected dykes in the shape
of coral reefs; that Lake Okeechobee
lies twenty-one feet above the level
of the sea and all that has to be done
is to cut a canal or number of ca
nails and release it's waters; that the
lake is a natural resoryior and
will hold enough water to irrigate the
entire Everglades and after they are
drained that the water alone that will
be sold for this purpose will more
than repay the entire cost of the prop
osition.
he people down there believe that
Florida will have bigger cities than
Cchcago, Milwaukee of Minneapolis
and in growing staple products that
the prairies of the west will not be in
it little bit.
The way these people talk of the
possibilities of this section make it
as fascinating as fairy story and
it is in every way more remarkable
than God-send Island and If the half
that is predicted for it should come
true the wealth it will coin will be
more fabulous than Solomon ever
dreamed of when he drained the
earth for the magnifcance of his
temple.
