Governor Curry Will Appoint Sixty
Delegates to the irrigation
Congress.

Spokane, Wash, June 1.-Governor
George Curry of New Mexico, has
sent letter to R. Insinger, chairman
of the board of control of the Ma
tional Irrigation Congress, asking fol
permission to appoint fifty delegates
from that Territory to take part in
the seventeenth sessions in Spokane
August 9 to IA. Governor Curry says
among other things:
"The people of New Mexico are
now trying to arrange for special
train to visit the congress and I be-
lieve there will be party of about
60, in addition to several ladies who
will accompany the delegates. ]
would like to appoint about fifty del
egates, with the understanding they
shall be entitled to only the regular
vote allowed each state and terri
tory
Mr.. 1nsinger has advised Governor
Curry that his suggestion meets with
the approval of the board of control
and that it is hoped the governor will
be successful in interesting even a
larger number, as every district rep
resented is bound to be benefited by
the congress.
I'VE have been advised by R. E
Twitchell of Las Vegas, that his city
will be well represented" said Mr.
Insinger, and" he adds, IF we come
you will know we are in town" We
are glad to have the cooperation OF
the governor of New Mexico and l do
not believe either he or his delegates
will have cause to regret coming to
visit u.s."

AUSTRlA'S WAR ON SNAKES
New Additions to the Empire 10 Badly
overrun with Rep
tiles.

Austria's new territory is undesir-
ably rich in snakes, mostly of the
poisonous varieties. and the govern
ment is taking vigorous measures to
exterminate them.
In the ten years from 1896 to 1905
the average yearly death roll from
snake bites in Bosnia and Herzegovina
was 13 persons, and 1888 head OF cat
tie. horses and domestic animals. Be-
sides this, hundreds Of persons were
bitten by snakes, but recovered.
Since 1906 the provincial authorities
have given money premiums for the
killing of snakes. In that year 30.O56
dead snakes were brought in, of which
25.43S were poisonous. Next year.
when the official reward system i've
came more generally known. these tig-
ures increased enormously, no fewer
than 2S0.71S snakes being killed, in.
Guiding 271 1856 poisonous.
Last years figures were very nearly
the same, and 1t will be some years
before the work of determination can
be anything like completed. But at the
same time the number of persons re-
ported bitten by poisonous snakes
seems to be steadily decreasing-206
in 1907 and 140 last year.

THE FREIGHT CAR SURPLUS
Il Should Not Be Taken a. an Evil
dence Of Business De-
preston.

While a large surplus OF idle freight
cars Is popularly believed to mean
continuing depression In freight move
meut. the result of business inactiv-
ity, 1t is not only desirable but vitality
necessary that railroads have on hand
at all times a sufficient number OF
idle freight cars to handle traffic eth-
ciently on occasions Of pressure or
emergency, says the Wall Street Sum-
mary, While 1t is undeniably true
that the exceedingly active and pros
perous period of 1906-7 witnessed.
great freight-car famine and result
ing congestion OF freight Of all kinds,
in nearly every state in the union. 1t
does not follow logically that any ac-
tiyity in business less than that OF
the period aforementioned Is a sign
of continuing depression When the
car shortage of 1906 was at Its height
and was accepted generally as an un-
failing indication OF business prosper
ity. as a matter of fact existing traf-
fic conditions at that time we're
source of great loss to many In widely
scattered districts. Shippers could
not obtain freight cars, communities
cou,d not obtain coal for the same
reason and were compelled to destroy
building and other property to supply
combustible material; agriculturists
could not move their grain or fruit,
and the consequence of this was loss
all around. During this period cars
mot in service-were actually tied
up in railroad freight yards owing to
n congestion arising from insufficient
motive power, because the railroads
were not prepared to cope with the
tremendous traffic offered them and
had not anticipated 1t.
What a boon surplus In cars and
motive power would have been at that
time. To that end we now appear to
be working, as car efficiency statis-
tics prove. Car operation has con-
tinually improved and about one.1fth
more work is now obtained from
every freight car in service.
Hence the number Of idle freight
cars at present should not be taken
