BILL BENEFITS

FARMERS MAY CONTRACT FOR
USE OF EXCESS WATER IN
THE RESERVOIRS.
PASSED BOTH HOUSES
RIGHT OF UNITED STATES TO
CONTROL WATERS SHALL
NOT BE ENLARGED.

Washington.-The conference COM
agreed to accept the House amend
ment Of the Warren bill which has
passed the Senate and House, author
izing contracts for the disposition of
water of projects under the reclama-
ton act
The bill provides that when the
storage capacity of government irri-
cation projects is in excess of the re-
Quirements of lands to be irrigated,
individuals, corporations, irrigation
districts and water users associations
may contract with the secretary of
the interior for the use of the excess
water at charges proportionate to the
cost of reservoir construction per
acre of the lands to be irrigated un-
der the projects, provided that water
shall not be furnished from govern
ment reservoirs to any one land
owner in excess of the amount re-
quired to irrigated 100 acres.
The bill specifically provides that
the right of the United States to con-
troll the waters of any state shall not
re enlarged.
The law, it is expected, will enable
individuals and associations to CO.
operate with the government in util-
izing the waters which have been i'm
pounded by the government, for which
provision has not been made for dis
tribution by the government to all
the lands which may be irrigated.

Pension Increase Favored.

Washington.-By vote of 8 to 3
the Senate committee on pensions
agreed to report to the Senate the
Sulloway general pension bill, which
already has passed the House. 1t was
so amended that the annual cost, in
addition to $153,OOO,OOO estimated for
the ensuing year, will be about $45,
100000. AS the bill passed the House
it would have cost about $50,000,000.

tee report a measure which would cost
for the first year about $8,300,000. He
was joined by Senators Gore and Tall
aferro in making up the minority oil
the final vote.

WASHINGTON.

AS a result of the growing belief
that paper and wood pulp provisions
of the new Canadian reciprocity will
operate to benefit Canada without a
corresponding benefit to the United
States, an important change is likely
to be made by Congress in the meas
ure.
Claiming that Russia has violated
the treaty of 1882 with the United
States by denying Jewish citizens OF
this country the privilege extended to
other American travellers Representa-
tive Parsons of New York introduced
a resolution in the House calling upon
President Taft to declare the treaty
void
Through the injection of the race
question into the hitherto compara-
lively commonplace discussion in the
Senate of the resolution providing for
the election of senators by direct
vote, Senator Root of New York and
Senator Bacon of Georgia lifted that
controversy to plane of almost sen.
sational interest.

1y to be drastic.

Reciprocity Is Favored.

Washington.-The Mccall bill car
rying into effect the Canadian recip-
rocity agreement reached the floor Of
the House and probably will be
passed before adjournment imme-
diately. When the voting began it
recame apparent that the lines were
being tightly drawn between those
favoring and those opposing the trade
agreement. AS finally corrected, the
vote to take up the bin was 1877 to
120. The bill will be passed, it is
said, by even large majority.

RECORD OF IMPORTANT EVENTS

PEOPLE.

The Iowa Legislature passed the

William Keohn, the bighwayman

Sustaining the contentious OF the
supporters of Oklahoma City in every
point in the capital removed contro-
versy, the State Supreme Court, i'll a
decision rendered, declared that city to
be permanent capital of Oklahoma.
The inter-marriage of whites with
Japanese or any other race is prohib-
tied in bill passed by the Legislature
of Nevada. 1t makes the performance
of such a marriage by minister or
Justice of the peace misdemeanor.
The most brutal and revolving
crime ever committed in Nevada has
been perpetrated in northern Washoe
county, four men being butchered,

beasts to prey upon.
The United Staes Circuit Court of
Appeals decided that Oklahoma's Jim
Grow" law is constitutional. The ne
groes who brought the action declared
they were being denied protection un-
der the laws. The case originated in
the United States District Court OF
Oklahoma, where negroes sought an
injunction to restrain the operation oe
the law which provided that all COM
mon carriers must have separate
coaches and waiting rooms for ne.
groes.
Western members of the Senate,
representing sheep and wool growing
states, are considerably concerned
over that part of the proposed recip-
Iocity treaty with Canada which pro-
vide for free admission into the United
States of Canadian sheep. The Presi-
dent, in transmitting the proposed
treaty to Congress, called attention to
the fact that Canada raises compare
fiVelv few wool sheen and that her tow
tie manufacturers are unimportant.
The Western senators familiar with
the sheep and wool growing business
are apprehensive that with the stimu-
las which will be given to the growth
OF the industry in Canada by remov-
ing the duty on the admission of sheep
INTO the United States, the raising of
sheep there will increase at the ex-
pense of the industry in this country.

Wants More Postal Banks.

Washington.-Postmaster General
Hitchcock, in asking Congress for an
appropriation of $1,O00,0O0 for the es
tablishment of 500 additional postal
savings banks, declares the forty
eight banks already established have
proven entirely successful. The total
deposits at these banks approximate
100000, or an average of 1850 With
this average maintained throughout
the year, the annual deposits at the
forty-eight banks will aggregate over
100000. This is better record than
that made by the British postal sys.
tenn in the most successful year of
it's history-1908.
