END OPEN DOOR WARFARE
Twenty-million Dollars to Be Invested
in New Properties-Best At
fractions Assured.

To end the open door" warfare
which has been declared by scores Of
theatres in small cities throughout the
United States, the Klaw & Erlanger-
Frohman syndicate, frequently re-
ferred to as the theatrical trust,

Negotiations Already have been con-
cIuded for a long lease of the Turner
Grand in Davenport and advices from

bers OF the syndicate.

ole West Theatre company were drawn
by Attorney Levy Mayer.

cluded in the syndicate are: Klaw &
Erlanger, Charles Frohman, Nixon &

ris, Charles B. Dillingham;, Henry W.

man, Joseph Brooks, H. H. Frazee,
George w. Lederer. r. Ziegfeid, Jr.,
wagenhals & Kemper. Joseph Weber,
Joseph M. Gates, Augustus Pitou,
Frank Mckee, Henry Miller, Henry

There are some others whose names
have not been made public. In all it
Is said the producing firms in the
syndicate represent more than 500 at
fractions and most of the principal
theatres in the United States.

BELGIUM FAIR
WILL HELP TRADE
Gives American Business Men an
Excellent Chance to Display
Goods.

In the opinion of the state depart
ment, the universal and international
exposition of 1910, in Brussels, Belgium,
affords American business firms an ex.
cellent opportunity for the stimulation
of trade between Belgium and the
United States.
The fact that Belgium, whose com
merce with the United States in 1905
amounted to more than $s1, 000,0 900, was
recently accorded the minimum tariff
rates of the United States, taken il
connection with the exposition, which
win be formally opened April %, and
continue until the middle of November
is pointed to by officials of the de
partment as asstimulant in the develop
ment of more trade.

IRRIGATION PLANS
IN THE NORTHWEST
Hundred Million Dollars Worth of
Lands to Be Added to
Irrigable Area.

Some idea of the Importance to the
future development of the Pacific north
west of the government irrigation
projects is to be gained from the
statement issued by the reclamation
service in answer to requests for infor--
nation as to the estimated costs of
reclamation of present projects, the net
costs, the irrigable areas, the water
right charges and the repayments to
the government which the settlers will
make in paying for their water. 1t
shows that in Idaho $22 100000 worth
of lands will be added to the agri-
cultural areas, in Washington $31,000,-
600 and in Oregon $10,600,OOo, while
Montana leads with more than $40,-
100000.
These four states will have more
than $1O0,0O0,000 out of the estimated
total value of all present projects,
which is $2s9, $4,000
Up to October 81, 1909, the settlers
on these projects had repaid to the gov
eminent in Oregon $1,000, in Wash
ington $77, 100, in Idaho $1,000 and
in Montana $751;, 900.
Lands now actually under water on
these projects are in Idaho $4,000 out
of a total of 100000 acres to be re-
claimed; in Washington 10000 out of
total of 262, 700; in Oregon $4,000 out of
1913, 900 and in Montana about $4,000
out of a total of about $4,000 acres.
The lowest charge per acre for re-
clamation is on the Minidoka project
in Idaho, estimates running as low as
$22 and as high as $40. The highest
charge per acre is on the Okanogan
project in Washington, the Umatilla
project in eastern Oregon coming next
at $50.
u. S. to Guarantee Bonds.
In accordance with recommendations
by the senate committee on finance the
bill providing for the issuance of $780,
O00,O0O Of certificates of indebtedness
for the benefit of the irrigation reclama-
ton service will be SO amended as to
make the government directly respon-
sible for the payment of the certifi-
Gates.
AS the bill now stands the certif-
Gates are made payable from the re-
clamation fund.
