FIVE YEARS OF
RECLAMATION
Grand Work Accomplished by the Federal
Reclamation Service and What 1t
:, Has Cost Since Opened in
Nevada in June,
1905. #

Il The first project undertaken by the
Reclamation Service was formally open
ed in Nevada, June II, 1905. In the
five years that have elapsed since then
the work of the bureau has been extend
ed to 26 or. more projects, which to date
have involved the expenditure of $50, :
600, 900. :,.. .s-,
'In the seven and one-half years of
it's work the service has built 4,215
miles of canal" writes c. J. Blanchard
in the National Geographic Magazine
"Placed end to end, these canals would
reach from Washington to San Fran
cisco and back to New Orleans. Sever
al of these canals carry whole rivers.
'It has excavated II miles of tunnels.
Before the end of the yearit will have
completed four of the highest dams in
the world. Its excavations of rock and
earth amount to the enormous total of
60,OOO,0 600 cubic yards. Its roads have
total length of AIT miles; telephones,
1,127 miles; levees, 70 miles. ~
''It has purchased 9l5, Isl barrels of
cement and has manufactured in its
own mill $40, 900 barrels. AS result
of its work water. is available for 750.-
600 acres on 5000 farms.
''The gross value of crops produced
on the lands irrigated by the govern
ment projects in 1910 was $14, ,038, 900.
AS result of the work of the govern
ment it is estimated that land values
have increased more than $l05, 800, 600.
"The Reclamation Service lis enter
ing 1910 with money and plans for COM
pleting most of its larger and unfinished
masonry structures n with about
three-quarters of million of acres of
arid land under irrigation. -,

very elastic, has been cut down to fit
reduced expenditures. About fifty skill
ed men engineers, experts and techni-
cal assistants have either sought priv
ate employment, have been transferred
to other bureaus of the government or
put on furlough in order to keep the
overhead charges consistent with the
expenditures.
Reviewing the history of the Re-
clamation Service as a whole, its maxi
mum activity and expenditures were in
the year 1907. In 1902 the expenditures
were less than $l0O, 900 and in 1903 less
than 81, 100000.
"In 1904 they were So, 500,0 900, in
1905 $4,000, 900, in 1906 little less
than $4,000, 900 and in 1907 nearly
$14, 900, 900. Th en- the expenditures
decreased to 100000 in 1908, to
about SO, 900, 900 in 1909. and in 1910
they will be little under $8,000,000.
"It is expected that in 1911 they will
shrink to about 1000, 900, which sum
will probably continue to be available
during after years, assuming that the
water right charges are paid as they
fall due. ,y ........ ...e3.

BIG FIGHT WAS
ALL, PURE FAKE
Sporting Editor of Philadelphia Inquirer
Scores Those Identified With the JEFF
fries-Johnson Fight and De-
nOunCes It As a Genu-
inc Fake.

Frank Hough, 1.-The Old Sport" :"
sporting editor of the Philadelphia In
quirer, denounces everything in connec-
ton with the recent fight as fake and
frameup, johnson alone, he thinks, be-
ing on the level. This is the way Hough
Sizes up the situation:
GAS the details of the recent social
ed fight of the century are being slow
ly revealed it becomes more and more
apparent that from it's inception to it's
conclusion the whole affair was rotten,
with the exception of the fight itself,
and that, to quote the immortal bard of
Avon, 'stunk to Heaven If there was
anyone connected with the pluggers,
that was absolutely on the level it must
have been johnson, and when you con-
slider the way things had to break for
him he could afford to be. You have
often heard of the guy who would dub
with the cards if he was playing soli-
taire, of course, but, take it from the
somewhat Ancient Sport, he was only
shoemaker as compared with Tex Rick
ard, the distinguished sportsman who
engineered this particular affair, and
who handed the American sporting pub
lie the juciest lemon that it was ever
called upon to swallow. And when you
remember some of the citric stuff that
it-meaning the American sporting pub
lic-has assimilated in recent years,
you will'readily understand what it was
up against on independence day now
past.

"In the first place, Tex Rickard, the
main shaft in the promoting end, ad-
mitted that the meeting at Hoboken,
where it was presumed that bids for
the fight would be opened and awarded
to the highest bidder in good faith, was
bit of bunk, meant only for advertis-
ing purposes; that the men who made
the trip across the continent for the
purpose of making substantial bona
fide bids never had chance, for the
reason that two days before the date
set for the opening of the bids he had
already signed the men up, doing busi-
ness with johnson direct and through |

PROPRIETARY MEDICINE
FRAUDS SHOULD BE EXPOSED

There have been plenty of them
no doubt, and they have been vigor'
ously condemned-so vigorously that
every sort Of medicine the formula
OF which is privately owned is con-
demned and pronounced "unethical'
by the Medical Profession.
Ecknan's Alternative deserves at
tention, not because it is "proprie'
tary" but because it really has cured
many cases Of tuberculosis. If it is
a fraud it needs exposing badly, be-
cause a number of cured Consump-
tives will need to find some other
reason for being well.
Henry Clay said he would rather
be right than be President. Is it not
better for Eckman's Alternative to
make cures than to be ethical?

In July, 1906, my physician sent me
to Texas, from there to Colorado. I
became worse and was sent home to

FOR 20 YEARS

Here is letter that we sincerely

read. If YOU suffer from catarrh or
any nose, throat or lung ailment,
read it over twice, and then consider
if you can afford to ignore a pre-.
scription with the. healing virtue of
Hyonei pronounce it High-o-me):
Booths Hyomei Co., Buffalo, N. Y.
"Gentlemen-I suffered terribly
with catarrh in the head for twenty
years, and tried many prescriptions,
but never found relief. I have used
Hyomei for two weeks and find it
the best preparation I have ever used
for catarrh. Every cold I would
catch seemed to go to my throat,
and had to use gargles for days at
a time. Now when I catch cold in
the throat use the Hyomei inhaler
and the soreness disappears over
night. Hyomei has put me on the
good road to getting rid of my cat
arrh, and if you want to use this
letter to publish in your advertising,
do so. Perhaps it will help some
other sufferer.-W. K. Engle, 703 Wal

REV, MAGIN DELIVERS
SERMON TO GRADUATES
CHURCH WAS PRETTlLY DECOR
ATED AND LARGE AUDIENCE
WAS PRESENT.
"Habit" Was Subject and Pastor
Showed Its Effect on Life-An Ap-
propriate Subject.

When Rev. Magin addressed the
members of the graduating class of
the Bismarck high school Sunday the
church was packed to the doors and
the sermon delivered was appropriate
to the occasion. The rooms of the
church were prettlly decorated with
flowers and ribbons and everyone who
heard the sermon stated that it was
one of the best efforts of the pastor
since he has been in charge of the
McCabe Methodist church.
The subject Of tho sermon was
Habit" and Mr.. Magin took for his
text, when thou vast young, thou
girfest thyself, and walkest whittier
thou wouldst; but when thou shalt
be old, thou shall stretch forth thy
hands, and another shall grid thee,
and carry thou where thou wouldst
not" John 21:18.
Mr.. Magin stated that habit was
one Of the greatest influences on our
lives and showed where Jesus was
governed by habit. His life was laid
in certain grooves. He went to the
places where the people were in the
habit of gathering and preached to
them there. He said that habit is
one of the laws of nature and that
some have said it is the deepest law
OF nature, many of the habits being
formed for us before we are born.
Improvement is due to habit. Demos
themes Overcame defect in his
speech and became one of the grea.
est orators of his age, simply by habit,
continual use of his tongue until cor
rect and Ineligible speech became q
habit with him. Habit can be either
mans worst enemy or his best friend,
it can exalt him to the highest pin
nacle OF virtue, honor and happiness.
or sink him to the lowest depths Of
vice, shame and misery. Coleridge
fought the opium habit for years and
nnally overcame it, many fight the
liquor habit.
Mr.. Magin used many word pictures
TO illustrate the points he made dur
ing the sermon and many of them
were painted in words that will leave
a lasting effect on the minds of the
young people. for whose good they
were intended He said that thorough.
ness was one of the habits to be most
cultivated. There are many tempta.
lions to be slack in ones work but
this mus. be overcome il success
would follow. He stated that frequent
changes in ones line of work wa,
detrimental to final success and said
