j. Hamilton Lewis Calls the Ameri.
cans Nations of LOCALIZED
Brigands.

Chicago, June 11.-Editor Theo-
dore Roosevelt and Editor William
]. Bryan were criticised in a speech
by former Congressman James Ham
ilton Lewis before the Illinois Press
association yesterday, both being de-
scribed as causes of a movement
which, he said, will lend to a dis
ruption of parties into bands flying
the flag of their own special privi-
leges. He called on the county edi-
tors to bring about cohesion and thus
counteract the influence of the move
ment he described.
Colonel Lewis was talking of leg
islation, and said: by legislation
we are being converted into a nation
of legalized brigands against legal
lied bandits. The policy is now to
destroy any opponent by the sword
of some privately directed act of leg
islature or of congress.
Unless tulS lTSuZl6u lUduld lOT
legislation shall subside into citizen
ship regulated by the measure of in
dividual welfare, the United States
will break up into bands and parties
under the flag of their own special
legislative privilege, who will pre-
sent themselves against the others
as were the houses of Italian mobiles,
English lords and German barons,
which destroyed all democracy of hui
man nature in that day.
IF am correct in my fear :of this
danger l must charge it's existence
to Editor Bryan and Editor Roose-
welt, each of whom, in his sincere
desire to promote reform in the in
justice of local institutions, has in
augurated in his political following
greater danger in the spirit of leg
islation against neighbor or oppon-
ent, for retaliation or vengeance.

his superiors and fealty to the consti-

In Great Britain the movement orig
mated in this way: General Baden
Powell in 1907 in a series of lectures in
different parts Of England suggested
that scouting should be taken up by
the various societies and organizations
that concerned themselves with the
welfare of boys. The idea met with
a success so immediate and widespread
that in order to give the movement a
general uniformity new organization.
called the Boy Scouts, with permanent
Headquarters and an official staff, had
to be formed. Recruits have contin-
ued to pour in, and there are today
probably 10000 boy scouts in Great
Britain alone and as many more in
other parts of the empire.
The boy scout movement has re-

Judge Long Hurt Again.

Judge Long had another unfOrtun-
ate accident last Sunday in which his
unlucky left arm was again serious
ly injured. He was driving home
from Chelan Falls, and when COM
ing up the steep pitch in the grade
at the Horn one of the single
trees broke loose from the double
tree on his wagon. The break start
ed the horses, and as they sprang
forward the Judge was jerked head
long over the dashboard. He struck
on his left arm and shoulder on the
hard roadbed and was dragged a few
feet before he succeeded in stop
ping the horses. The arm and shout
der are painfully bruised and are
causing him much suffering, but for
tunately no bones were broken.
Two years ago Mr.. Long injured
the hand and wrist of this same
arm in a fall, with the result that
one finger had to be amputated at
the time and a bad sore at the wrist
has bothered him ever since. The
first serious accident to the member
occurred during the civil war, when
a rifle ball inflicted a serious wound
in the hand and wrist-Chelan

Spokane, Wash, June 11.-Bread
cast upon the waters in nursing back

pector in the Montana hills, 20 years
shape of fortune, estimated at ST.
100000, to Mrs. Dolly E. Baker, liv-
ing with her family in northern Ida
ho. r. J. Fillmore, of Rochester,
N. Y, who is on the way to Spo-
kane, believes the woman is the
rightful heir, designated in the will
as Dolly Grant, divorced from Will
lard Grant at Helena, Mont, in June,
1890"
1T might be that one of the boys
in the old mining camp remembered
me-" she continued, for in those
days, as is the custom today, the
settler keeps the latchstring on the
weather side of his shack. My fam
lily befriended many prospectors in
those days when sick and in need,
and in numerous instances we pro-
vided grubstakes after they recov-
cred their health and were able to
continue the search for the yellow
metal in the hills.
But the whole thing is a mystery
to me, as l do not even know the
name of the person who has made
me his heir, and probably l shall not
learn it until after Mr.. Fillmore has
complete dhis investigation and l
prove to his satisfaction that | am
the Dolly Grant" he is looking for
in the northwest"
To establish her identity, Mrs. Ba-
ker produced the decree of the court
at Helena, granting a divorce from
Grant at the time mentioned, but
said that she is unable to recall any
one who could leave fortune to her,
adding it could not be a relative, as
other members of her family, which
is a large one, would have heard of
it and advised her long before this
time.
Mrs. Baker was located near Occur
d 'Alene, Idaho, as the result of an
item appearing in western newspa-
pers several weeks ago.

WATER
At QUINCY

Charles Rumbolz and sister, of
Wenatchee, formerly from near Win
chester where Mrs. Rumbolz has
homestead, was in the city from Fri
day to Monday on business. While
here Mr.. Rumbolz made a couple of
visits to the Keigley irrigation plaEi
..d reported himself Vel. pleased
with tie progress AMI the Feasibility
of this scheme of raising fruit. Hav
ing had a position with w. T. Clark,
one of the largest fruit growers of
sition to know, and states that the
trees on Mr.. Keigley's place are fully
equal to those of equal growth in
the Wenatchee valley, with as good
an abundance of fruit as they have
down there. Mr.. RumbolZ has great
faith in this valley and claims the
plan of irrigating from wells can be
successfully done should no other
proposition be available.
1t might not be out Of place to
state few facts in regard to Mr..
Keigley's we'll, which has been spo-
ken of at different times in these
columns.
Mr.. Keigley is at present putting
water on his own 30-acre orchard,
which is set out as follows: 200 six
year old trees, 400 four year ola
tteCs. 400 three year I'D eos and
80 trees this year. Fourteen acres of
the orchard contains potatoes, three
acres are in alfalfa, and a garden
comprises one acre.
Besides his own tract Mr.. Keigley
has furnished water to an adjoining
60 acres of young orchard, including
in part patch of potatoes. In irri-
eating this second body of land wa
ter was conveyed to it in a ditch
about IS inches wide, the water
maintaining uniform depth of
about II inches-this at a distance
of over a half mile from the pump.
This was to some degree occasioned
by the fall in elevation, but notwith-
standing, there was continuous
flow and plenty of water, and the
men were able to irrigate an acre
an hour of this years trees-ten
acres in day of ten hours.
The soil is remarkably adapted to
sub-irrigation, which fact can be at
tested to by the writer, who, step
ping on an innocent looking piece of
land got a wet, muddy foot and leg
half to the knee.
Mr.. Keigley states that it costs be-
tween 80 and 35 cents to run his 20
horsepower gasoline pumping plant,
and Mr.. Rumbolz states that Mr..
Keigley is wasting lots of water, so
it is probable this item of expense
could be cut down a little, or at
least offset by watering more land.
Adjacent to the so acres named
above is a second 60-acre tract which
will be set to fruit trees and irrigat-
ed next year by this same well, max
ing in all $50 acres which, though
it is half as much again as was fig
ured on for the well when it was in
stalled, Mr.. Keigley is confident can
be done. owing to the quality of the
soil and the inexhaustibility of the
supply of water.
Since seeing Mr.. Keigley's plant
in operation about a dozen of other
