of the opinion that the coming few years will mark the greatest agrieul- tural advancement in the history of the nation. Officials of lines pene- trating the west are looking forward to a greater movement of cOlOnists during 1911 than took place last year. important as that year was. Down in Dixie and in the southwest, the railway opinion is that the tide of immigration will exceed this year the record made last year for in- creased population and the reason. for this optimism are logical ones
 A fOrcible illustration of the sta bihty of the middle western move ment. for instance. is found in the development which took place, or is indicated as soon to take place be cause of the influx of land settlers. in the state of Utan in February. During this one month 60,0O0 acres of land were taken under the prOvi- sions of the homestead law. The United States land office at Salt Lake City reports this acreage as the largest, by 50 per cent, for the business for one month in the his tory of the office. Recently 8 home seekers excursion was operated from Chicago to western Texas. Tbe colon ists represented twenty different states.
 These are some of the more potent contentious of Chicago business men in their predictions concerning the success that will mark the work of the Irrigation Congress in Chicago this year. Chicago Is the one Ameri- can center and source of distribution most logically adequate to the enoT- mity of the development movement as a whole and the city is naturally the most advantageous host this year for tne congress and for the exhibits of farm products, which are to be repeated here this fall.

best, and has that desirable eharae. teristic of not containing any alkan whatever. Prof. Clothier was enthu. siastie and unhesitatingly stated in
 his report that it is the most desir. able land in the country for the pur- poses 10 which it is to be devoted.
 In case there should not be avail able from the Willow creek shed a sufficient supply of water for irrigat- ing purposes the purchasing syndi- cate has a reserve along Lynx creek that can be diverted, which covers an area of twenty-oDe miles, and the purchase of which was also announced yesterday. Dam construction will be the method of impounding water there as on Willow creek.
 In addition to the substantial con ditions behind this project, there is also another interesting side line, that of the creation of a resort that will be without counterpart in Ari- zona. The impending of the water will reveal one of the most faseinat- ing and attractive lakes in existence anywhere, and which with its rugged cliffs reaching out of the water, with the verdure in evidence, will make an ideal retreat from which this city will receive due consideration as a summer colony center.
 Representing Colonel Thayer and MT. Watson, in the long negotiations was George A. Thayer, son of the former, and Major W. l.. Hargrove, both of whom are residing in the city. MT. Thayer will nave charge of the interests of his syndicate and will be assisted by Major Hargrove. They are arranging to begin opera tions and during the coming week the first move will be made to get the machinery of this great under taking under headway.

LOHN CASE IS IN
FEDERAL Court
FOURTH OF JULY ACCIDENT
COMES UP IN FEDERAL COURT
ToDAY-LoHN ASKS FOR s1o,5oo
FROM JOHN w. HARRIS OF
MooRHEAp.

The echo of the Fourth of July OF
last year was heard in The federal
court this morning when the case of
Martin Lohn against John w. Harris
of Moorhead was started. The hear
ing continued throughout the day and
a large number of witnesses will be
heard before the trial is over.
Lohn is bringing suit for damages,
through Lens Lohn. ad Item, the
plaintiff being minor, against Har-
ris for personal injuries sustained on
the Fourth by being run over by an
automobile driven by Harris.
1t will be remembered that in the
late afternoon Of July last, business
Broadway witnessed a distressing &C.
cident when a machine driven by Har-
ris and belonging to J.. c. Cole of Lis
bon ran over the body OF the little
Lohn lad, injuring him severely.
The boy was selling extra papers
detailing the account Of the big JEFF
fries-Johnson prize fight. While in
front OF the drug store OF FouE C
Porterfleld he thought he heard O cry
from across the street from a person
calling for a paper. He rushed for
ward TO cross the street. but before
he could reach the other side he was
run down by the machine.
The lad was Knocked to the ground
and the first wheel of the auto passed
over his stomach and before the rear
wheel struck him he had turned over
and the back circle passed over his
back. He arose quickly, but no sooner
had gotten to his feet than he threw
his hands aside and dropped into the
arms Of a member of the crowd, which
was quickly gathering.
He was removed TO st. Luke's hos
pital, where every possible attention
was given him. Internal injuries had
developed and for a time his life was
despaired of by friends.
There were many conflicting stories
regarding the accident, at the time II
occurred Some said that Harris was
driving on the wrong side OF the
street, which he explained as having
been necessary IN his efforts to avoid
striking the lad. Others said the driv-
err OF the car was running beyond the
speed limit, while others remarked Of
the fact that he was running the ma
chine almost 4 snails pace,
