be a part and parcel of the convention
and every door of the exposition will
be thrown open to them. There will
be such a flow of wit and wisdom and
inspire every visitor, and it is safe to
say that when the scribes return to
their several balliwicks the praises Of
the jamestown exposition will be heard
in every part of the land.
The -four days program includes a
trip to view the United States navy
yard at Portsmouth: famous ship
building plant at Newport News. pass

memorial exercises. These will be the
only special sessions, and will leave
the association free to enjoy the hos
pitaiity of the exposition and to be-
come familiar with the many historical
points of interest clustered around

IRRIGATE HORSE HEAVEN
FROM KLICkITAT RIVER

KENNEWICK, June 3.-The Klicki-
tat Irrigation & Power company has
been very active this spring in the
Horse Heaven, southwest of here. Num-
erOus surveying parties have been
running lines locating reservoir sites.
planned to hold immense quantities of
water. The nearest of these is at the
Horse Heaven postoffice. The success
Of irrigation in the Kennewick valley
insures bOuntiful crops and enormous
profits by watering the soil there
which has the same constituents as the
famous Kennewick soil.
The water for the canal is to b.
taken from the Big Klickitat river sew
eral miles west of Goldendale, and the
canal will be carried probably so miles
before it reaches any of the land to be
irrigated and then extend about 100
miles farther. 1t is an immense under
taking that will reclaim thousands upon
thousands of acres which lie between
the Northern Pacific and North Bank
railroads, with the Columbia river on
the southern side.
The project, it is estimated, will cost
in the neighborhood of $4,000, 900
Whether it has been financed or not
cannot be determined. A couple of
years ago it was claimed that English
capital had been secured and there was
talk of starting actual construction
work, but engineers expressed doubt
as to there being enough water in the
Big Klickitat river to cover the lan1.
and since then exhaustive tests have
been made of the flow of the stream
covering two seasons. These result
have not been made public, but the fact
that sites are now being selected for
storage reservoirs would indicate that
the river does not carry enough water
to cover all the land. That it can be
secured through storage, however.
there is no question.

EMPLoYEs CONSIDERED.
Prevailing Policy of Corporations In
 the South.


 Columbus. Ga, July 7.-(speeial)-Gn- Gn- creasing consideration for the comfort and welfare of employees marks, in rather striking manner, the plan and policy of conducting industrial enterprises in the leading manufacturing centers of the south.
 Shortening the hours of work, proVid- ing free schools and kindergartens and in some cases free clubs and gymnasl ums, a.spensing with eommissares and paying off all the employees once week are some of the policies inauguratcd by leading southern cotton mills which ha, L attracted national attention in industrial circles, but 1t is not alone in such mann moth industries as the manufacture of cotton cloth that this new spirit of con slderatlon and thoughtful regard for the welfare of employees is found. Ii Is man ifested in hundred different ways in many lines of industry, and recent in- cident in Columbus, typical mannfdc- turing city of the south, well illustrates the point.
 Recently the Columbus Railroad com pany which operates the street railway system of this city. decided to build d new car barn, and u.hen the plans were prepared ideas were incorporated by the architects at the suggestion of the man agement. which will make t one of the most novel ear barns in America. A reading room, which will be well sup piled with books, newspapers and other periodicals, Is provided; club room where pool, billiards and other games can be slayed is arranged for shower baths are provided. there Is an indi- vidual locker for each man, space for bootblaek stand is reserved, and clothes pressing service which will keep the uni- forms of the conductors and motormen neat and clean Is provided for. For the convenience of employees who wish to spend the night at the barn neat cots will be provided. The entire second flcsr of the new structure will be turned over 10 the men, and 1t will be in effect q club house.
