Irrigation from Underflow.

Greeley.-An underground river a
quarter of mile wide in the Pierce
locality, twenty miles north of here is
helping solve the problem of irriga-
tion there for large area.
To avail themselves OF the under
flow the Pierce residents have put
down wells and the water is raised
with pumps The most novel well is
that of H. Bert Cave, and is really two
wells, with pipe running between
them. Each is twelve feet in diameter,
thirty-two feet deep and the water
rises ten feet and runs in as fast as
taken out by pump operated by
electricity. This plant furnishes suf-
ficient water to irrigate sixty acres.
Cal McMullin has a well which
sends out stream of fifty cubic
inches a second. In digging these
wells the condition of the soil shows
one-time river beds at different depths.

tary. treasurer. Hon. David j Lewis, Dem.
ocratic candidate for Congress in this dis.
trict, was present and made a vigorous and
telling speech In behalf Of the Democratic
cause. This speech closed an effective two
weeks canvass by Mr.. Lewis OF every sec
ton Of our county, and the candidate ex-
pressed himself as greatly pleased and en-
couraged by the reception be had received

lowing resolution with more than ordinary
relish and amid hearty cheers:

Baltimore Sun In the current Presidential
campaign merits the execration Of all Dem.
ocrats, and as fitting rebuke for Its politi.
cal perfdy 1t Is the sense Of this meeting
that all honorable means should be used to
induce every member Of our party TO dis
continue his subscription, and we call upon
ali officials In the State TO discontinue their
patronage 70 this paper.

Democratic Campaign Contributions.

The undersigned, as Treasurer OF the Com.
mittee of One Hundred, q political organi-
cation throughout the State Of Maryland for
the purpose of electing Bryan and Kern
and the regular Congressional candidates OF
the Democratic party, having duly given
bond to the State Of Maryland and filed the
same with the Secretary Of State, as pro.
vided under chapter 1879 Of the Acts Of the
General Assembly Of Maryland Of 1908 for
the purpose Of preventing corrupt practices,
is now 10 position to receive and account
for, according to law, such contributions as
may be made by all citizens; and has also
been appointed by the Democratic National
Committee, member Of the Finance Com.
mittee Of the National Organization for the
State OF Maryland.
This new law, which throws much labor
on political treasurers, directs the names OF
all contributors and the amounts given to
be made public record In the Circuit Court
Clerks office Of the respective counties or
Baltimore City. No subscriptions without
the name of the giver can be received. Any
person who subscribes In any other name
than his own, and every treasurer who
knowingly receives such q subscription, Is
subject to fine and imprisonment and will
be ineligible to public office for four years
from the date of the offense. A detailed &C.
count of expenditures Is required. The law
prohibits subscriptions from corporations.
The publicity thus given to all subscrip-
tons Ia apparently intended TO discourage
them from the special interests for improper
purposes and also correspondingly to en-.
courage the party leaders and benefclaries,
including the rank and file of the people,
whose interests are served by honest gov
eminent, to bear the campaign expenses OF
the party which they choose to support.
The public record Of contributions will thus
serve as an index OF the individuals who
give financial support to the Democratic
party in this important campaign.
Every Democrat In the State Of Maryland,
who Is financially able, should at once make
contribution for the cause either TO local
Treasurer, to the Treasurer of the State Gem
trail Committee, Hon. Murray Vandiver, or
to the undersigned, and the name of the
contributor will be placed on the Roll Of
Honor TO be recorded In the courts of record
as directed by the Statute.
If the people desire TO rule and throw off
the yoke Of the special interests, they should
respond to this lawful opportunity and con-
tribute to necessary and proper political
expenses.
