In accord with this policy the practi-

time. This brought to the attention

cattle as was never seen before will
be gathered this year at the Minnesota

fair week, trying to again lower tbs
wonderful mark. On Thursday, Sept.

mare as Dan is as pacing stallion
will endeavor to lower her worlds

Other great horses will be in the

the reputation of the track as a fast

constructed and the state fair man

three times each day during fair week.
It will be on exhibition between times

Elephant vs.. Crocodile.

n An African hunter once found a.
large crocodile hanging in the fork OF
a tree about ten feet from the ground.
AS the place was fully half a mile
from any water, 1t was difficult to ac-'
count for the crocodile's strange po-i
8sition When questioned upon the
subject the natives explained that It,
was put there by an elephant. It
seems that when the elephants wade

MARK TWAIN TODAY
IS Y YEARS
OF AGE
Especial to The Daily sentinel,

New York, Nov. 30.-Without
pomp or ceremony. but with all the
honors that might have been show
cred upon one of the earth's great
monarchs, DR.. Samuel Langhorne
Clemens. better known as Mark
Twain, today celebrated his 72nd
birthday. From far and near, from
all over America and from foreign
lands. messages of congratulations
were showered upon Americas ven-
cradle humorist. Few Americans are
held in such high esteem by the peo-
pie of all countries. and this fact was
again manifested today.
Mr.. Clemens was born at Florida,
Mo-. November 80, 1895. He was ed
ucated In the common schools of
Hannibal, Mo. He went to work as
an apprentice to a printer when only
IL years of age. For a short time
he was pilot on the Mississippi, and
his experiences while following this
occupation, formed the basis OF many
of his funniest recitals. He married
Olivia P. Langdon, of Elmira, N. Y,
in 1870, his wife dying in Italy about
a year ago. In 1884, he founded the
publishing house of C. L. Webster
& Company. the failure of which in
volved him In heavy losses. which
he managed to pay after years of
hard and devoted work. His recent
trip to England was a continual ova-
tion and showed conclusively that
he Is almost as popular in that coun-
try as he Is in the United States.

THE GREAT SHOW

Down at Washington Fairbanks, the Icice and his 90 Per-
formers and Joe-Joe the Bad man From Illinois and
His 39l Troopers, will Get Busy---Ihe Voice Of the

Washington, Nov. 30.-Walk right
up. ladies and gentlemen. See the
great two-ring curcus, the greatest
show on earth, which will positively
open its doors in our city two days
hence, rain or shine. See the famous
Big Stick, which has cracked and
crowned heads of Europe and Asia.
Hear the voice of the Great l am

trained performenrs. See Joe-Joe,
the bad man from Illinois, and his
troupe of 391 Instructors of legis-
lation, gathered together from all
parts of civilized America. See Till

est display of oratorical fireworks
ever let of in any age or cline is

In the same manner a congression-
al barker might recount the wonders
of the great show which is to open
Monday in Washington. If he were
truthful-which would be too much
to expect of a barker-he might add
that almost the sole reason for the
big show Is that the people may Judge
between the two great parties which
divide between them the terrible re-
sponsibilities of the government of a

dance. OF the passing of important
laws there will be none, uhless-and
here's the rub for those legislators
who believe in the traditional do-no-
nothing policy-unless congress is
forced to action by menace of the Big
Stick. The man behind the Stick is

MIR. GARFIELD TALKS
OF IRRIGATION
PROJECTS
Especial to The paly sentineL)

Especial to The Daily SentineL)
Baltimore. Nov, 29.-Secretary of
the Interior Garfield, speaking OF
irrigation, said in an interview to-
day:
This work has advanced far
enough to demonstrate absolutely its
success. We have seen fruits, veg
etables, grain and everything else
growing on lands where nothing but
cactus ever grew before the day of
irrigation
There. are 3O,o0O,OoO acres of
these arid lands all told. We have
completed the irrigation work on
100000 acres.
"As soon as they get the water
they are as fertile as any soil.
so far We have worked chiefly
on the public lands, although ada
cent private property will benefit.
This land is turned over to settlers
under homestead act, although
the old l60-acre allotment is not ad-
hered to. The size of the lot is de-
termined by its fertility, 20 or 40
acres in most cases.
The settlers take these lots with
the understanding that they are to
pay back to the government the cost
of the irrigation improvements in
10 annual installments beginning as
soon as the water is turned on. They
also have to pay the cost of main
tenance, which amounts to so cents
a year an acre. Under this arrange
ment the money advanced by the gov
ernmeht viii all be returned to II
and 1t can be put out again in other
territories until all the arid lands
have been made fertile"
The daily sentinel., 1907-11-30

True, 1t has never been customary
to pass important measures during
the session of congress preceding a
presidential election. But what, pray.
is precedent. when the Big Stick
waves aloft and the Common People
who nevertheless have votes-de-
mand relief from the Ills which they
find hard to bear?
Popular clamor demands new
railroad and corporation laws, cur
rency legislation, tariff revision and
a score of other measures designed
for the public good. The congress
to lose the name of actonS0S. IN
ional mood is so slicked over with
the lurid cast of campaign oratory
as to lose the name of action. Con-
gress wants nothing so much as
peace, in which to discuss the diff
ferences of opinion and make politi-
cal thunder. But in the Roosevelt
tian vocabulary there is no such
word as peace" and congress will
soon discover this fact to its sorrow.
Thirty-seven times last winter the
the president spurred congress to
action with sharp-pronged messages.
There is no evidence that the presi-
dental typewriter is worn or that
the presidential spirit is less siren
uous than of yore.
Apparently, there is nothing to it.
Congress must make at least a pre-
tnce of being a legislative body. and
not merely a debating society. 1t
may be damned If it does, but it
will certainly be damned if it doesn't.
President Roosevelt's first message
to Congress which will probably be
on the second day of the
session, after the House shall have
had opportunity to re-elect Uncle Joe
Cannon speaker and provided seats
for its 391 members, will unquestion-
ably be the most notable cohtribu-
ton to the Congressional literature
of the entire coming period of leg
islation and literature. 1t is gen.
orally believed that it will be the
longest, If not the strongest, message
ever penned by Mr.. Roosevelt, al
though his messages heretofore have
lacked neither in length nor strength.
