London.-Premier Asquith and the
cabinet are read for the real work of
parliament, which begins Monday,
after the king has formally opened the
national legislative body and the speech
from the throne outlining the govern
ment's policy is read.
Of course, it is impossible to say with
any absolute certainty just what the
government program will be, but there
seems to be little doubt that the
budget will be the first matter taken
up, and then the house OF lords will be
dealt with, There was much opposition
to the course, not only on the part of
the Irish and Labor men who wished

CAIRO LOST TO DEXTER
Played Ball on Wet Ground-Socre 10
to Against c. n. S.--Were
Treated Fine.

| The Cairo high school baseball
team lost the game yesterday alter
noon at Dexter, Mo, to the high
school team OF that place by a score
of 10 to 5. The boys were forced to
play on grounds covered with water
and slush something they were moi
used to by any means. The game was
, called at so O'Clock and both teams
figuratively speaking, went out for a
swim on the wet diamond.
icolp was on the slab for G., H. S,
and pitched a very cerditable game
He struck out several and the Mis-.
souri, boys only landed three hits of
his delivery.
The local boys altogether got seven
shows their batting was good and they
had a few errors down against them.
Tie diamond being strange to them
made throwing judgment on their
part rather poor and these several
wild losses cost them the game.
The team left here on the early
Iron Mountain train yesterday morn.
ing and after they passed Charleston,
Mo, heavy rain began to fall and
upon arriving in Dexter at 1880 the
clouds burst out steadier than ever.
1t was thought then no game could be
played but about IL o'clock the Sky
cleared bit and the rain ceased the
rest OF the afternoon
The game really should not have
been played but as the C. H, S. team
was already there quite an expense
reverted to Dexter and to help the
Dexter fellows out on the finance
problem the Cairo boys consented to
in the game.
odd Sol" peeped several times
during the game from beneath the
dark clouds, but his radiance did not
last long and with a stiff cold wind
blowing ball playing was made rather
q hard proposition. II the sun had APP
peared few hours sooner the dia-
mond would have been in fine condi-
ton because Of the fine sand and clay
with which it was coated.
The Dexter people treated the G..
Fl. S. fellows fine, although they came
out not small sum of dollars to the
bad in doing so. The Cairo boys
eheerfully give their Missouri OPP
ponents credit for good playing, and
speak highly of the good treatment
they received.

The reservoir rights will not be needed
for years to come, but the company, at
a minimum, can impound this amount
of water, which by diversion into the
SEWER river can be ut1llzed Tor 1rrlga-
tion purposes. The canals are well
along now. By next spring the whole
tract will be under water. A large
force of men are kept continuously
busy constructing canals and survey
ing the tract.
Everything possible is being done by
the company to fulfil its promises to
the public. and 1 am convinced that
there will be no delays for water for
the tract. The land is being fairly
well taken up, but the people of this
state and vicinity are not availing
themselves of its advantages as they
should.
1T is well to remember that there
can be but one crop of land for the
settler in this country. Each year sees
less and less of available lands. Very
little good land is left for the home
seeker to homestead or pre-empt. Much
better lands lie within the sections
sought to be reclaimed under the va
rious reclamation sections in the arid
west than have ever been -empted
or homesteaded under the presumption

people are slower in taking hold of the
various reclamation projects offered
under the law than other people of the
inter-mountain states. California has
had state law permitting the forma-
ton of irrigation districts for more
than a decade, so has Colorado and
Utah did not pass a law permitting
the formation of irrigation districts
until 1903, and no provision has been
made by the people of this state to
avail themselves OF the Carey act,
passed by Congress until within the
last few years. I am advised that the
Strawberry valley reclamation project,
wherein the national government
seeks to reclaim some fifty or sixty
thousand acres to the south and east of
Provo, is the only government project

and with such extensive mountain

that those now under way do not re-
