information indicating strongly the
identity OF the dynamiters, but have
diyulged nothing.
The police declare that Hoffman at
one time was reported involved in the
plot but withdrew before anything was
done. While Chief Galloway is still
reticent, the assorted dynamite which
wrecked the Times building has been
traced to this city from Oakland by
way of San Francisco and Martinez
The police and Detective Burns are
more confident than ever that the men
who purchased the dynamite at the
Giant Powder companys plant in
Oakland are not the only ones con.
cerned in the plot.

Whatever your political affiliations,
do not let party lines blind you to-

from doing what you think is best and
right. See that the men you vote for
stand for the right principles, regard
less of party, and support those men
who meet the requirements, and you
will not only be doing the best thing
for yourselves, but for the public.
This is not political move at all,
as is generally understood, but a move
to get away from the old lines of par

their lives and eleven others sustain
ed more or less severe injuries in the
wreck, two miles east of Clayton,

feet OF which had been washed out by
cloudburst. The train was running
practically on time and was proceed
ing on straight stretch of track.

the engineer had of any danger came
when he realized that the forward

water which had spread out over the
tracks near the fill. Reversing his
engine, the speed of the train was
checked but not enough to prevent
the engine, baggage car and smoker

LACK OF WATER FOR FARMS
Experts on Irrigation Declare That
Practically All the Available Run

Denver, Colo.-Every drop of sur.
face water capable of being turned
to irrigation Is already appropriated
is the opinion of practically all ex.
perts who read papers at conference
on irrigation in session here on
Thursday. The conference was ar.
ranged by the department of agricul
ture. Supplies from other sources
than running streams must be looked
to for future use, the experts say, and
in the meantime new reclamation
projects should be held in allegiance.
In line with this view of conditions
experiments are being made in diff.
ferent sections into the feasibility of
pumping operations. In California,
Washington Kansas and New Mexico
these experiments are being carried
on under direction of representatives
from the agricultural department In
Washington.
Subirrigation is another plan Of
bringing moisture to growing crops
which is being tested out. Porous
tiles are laid and water from under
ground store houses is carried to the
point desired and is drawn to the sur
! face by capillary attraction.
Representatives from a number OF
western states, several Atlantic
states. and from the agricultural de.
partment are attending the confer
ence. Several foreign countries are
represented also.
