been found of any of them. MI the
prisoners were charged with felonies,
and every effort will be made to
bring them back tor trial. Officers
have proof that bundle of saws
was passed in to the prisoners, and
they have certain parties under sur

evidence may be secured to warrant
arrests. Following is list of those
who escaped;

DECEMBER s TO 9

Ire object and purpose of this
Congress can best be expressed in
its motto, "Save the forests, store
the floods, reclaim the deserts,
make homes on the land" to which
might be added "drain the swamp
and make homes on the land"
There are in the United Stltes
IS, 900 600 acres of swamp land,
non proCu tive. menace to health,
and a deterrent to immigration.
Is, 900. 600 acres divided into 40
acre farms means homes for I,S75,-
900 families, or approximately
10, 600, oeo of our citizenship.
This land when reclaimed will be as
healthful as land that has always
been dry, and will be the most pro-
ductive of all lands, because it is
composed of the rich soil brought
down bv the rivers, desposited and
mixed with the decayed vegetation
of centuries.
On account of the diversified
ownership and state complications
it would seem that the United States
Government is logically the authority
to redeem these lands along the lines
pursued in the reclamation of the
arid lands OF the West.
The results of irrigation of the
arid lands of the Far West, and tho
possibilities of the drainage of tho
swamp lands of the Great South, and
elsewhere, will be given the par
ticular attention in an elaborate pro
gram that has been planned for this
congress. Delegates from all parts
of the country, as we'll as foreign
representatives,, have been invited,
and a goodl, attendance is expected.
