Democrats Introduce Bill to Act
as Club Over Employers
During Elections.
UNCLE JAMES INVESTIGATED
Venerable Secretary of AgricuI-
ture Is to Go on the
GriddIe.

WASHINGTON, February In
troduced by Representative Foster,
bill is now before the house holding the
club of criminal prosecution over those
employers who intimidate their en-
ployes during the election periods to
secure their votes.
The proposed law is directed against
those employers who threaten during a
political campaign to shut down their
businesses if certain party is elected,
and thus secure their employees votes
on the basis that a contrary vote means
that they will be thrown out of en-
ployment.
The bill is generally considered a
Democratic measure anticipating con-
dition of affairs liable to exist at the
next national elections.
Wilson on Gridhle.
Secretary ''Uncle James" Wilson
long thought to be above party con-
fict, is slated for special investiga-
tion at the hands of a house committee
which is to look into some pungent de-
tails of the administration of the de-
partment of agriculture.
The expenditures of the department
and certain orders issued by Wilson and
Solicitor McCabe, attached to the de-
partment, dismissing engineers, are to
be the principal things upon which the
congressional gaze is to be focused.
1t is charged that the departmental
authorities have suppressed reports
made to it by its own agents and en-
gineers and that it has been unduly in
tuenced by land spectators.
The exploitation of the Florida Ever
glades is mainly responsible for the
present investigation which has grown
out of publicity given the department 4

that he thought they did. ''The revo.
luton will succeed,' he said, "and it
will have the great body of the Chi
nese people behind it. They under
stand enough to back up the new move
ment
Foreigners in China, for the most
part, are in sympathy with the revo-
luton. The Japanese do not want to
see Chinese republic, for reasons of
their own, and the same is true of the
Germans, who were getting concessions
from the Manchu dynasty. Americans,
British, French and Others, I think,

Revolutionists' Flag.

The flag which Mr.. Lam brought
back with him is very different one
from that which is flying from hun
dred or more buildings in Honolulu.
The flag seen so much here was born
in the southern provinces. Mr.. Lam
says he never saw it till he came to
Honolulu The flag the revolutionary
armies are now flying shows rising
sun--the sun of liberty, Lam calls it
surrounded by eighteen moons, one for
each of the eighteen provinces which
patriots who dream of Chinese re-
public, hope to unite in national bonds.
A flag of the new Chinese navy was
also brought by Mr.. Lam. 1t is the
first one seen here and was obtained
by him with great difficulty. 1t is
from the gunboat Hal Shing. The young
Chinese who brought it to Honolulu
spent two days with a friend on that
gunboat, and asked him for q navy
flag to take away with him. He was
told that giving away one the vessel S
flags might be a serious offense, but as
he left the vessel in a sampan his
friend threw him one, and it is among

DRAINING FIELD AND RANCH
SuccessfuI Operation Has Developed
Necessity of More Extended Work
to Secure Outlets.

The successful drainage of the field
md ranch has developed the necessity
II making more extended work to Sc
ure outlets which are adequate to re-
;eive the water from the several
arms. Irrigated land has few, if any,
Vatercourses so that drainage wate-
must be delivered through artificial
htches, usually to the same stream
rom which the water was originally
Inverted. The construction of such
,utlet drains requires the cooperation
II the owners of land which is to be
benefited. This is secured under the
provisions of the state drainage laws,
which permit owners of land to form
corporate district and distribute
he cost Of the work among the sew
eral owners in proportion to the bene
ut each will receive The assessments
10 apportioned are collected as taxes
and the proceeds applied to pay for
The cost of such work as has been
agreed upon. Each landowner within
he district then has right to use the
outlets and participate in all of the
benefits which will accrue from the
work
1t is quite often the case that little
Or no field drainage can be success
FULLY done until outlets have been
made. Districts of this character con,
tanning 10000 acres or more have been
Inaugurated in the states of Washing
ton, Utah and Colorado, but none has
rs yet been completed This feature
of drainage, which has but recently
been forced upon the people in certain
sections, is new and brings up some
troublesome questions concerning the
location of such drains as will prove
Of common utility, and also concern
lng the equitable assessment of their
cost upon the several tracts of land
for which they provide drainage.
There are at least 100000 acres of
irrigated land which now require
draining in order to make them profit
ably productive, the larger part of
which will require the construction of
outlet drains in which more or less
cooperation of property owners will
be required. After the land which is
drained has become fairly free from
alkali, with which it is often highly
charged, the water flowing from the
main drains becomes highly valuable
for irrigation. Such water then be-
comes an asset, since it may be used
to irrigate lands occupying a lower
level. These questions have not yet
been adjusted satisfactorily in connec-
ton with drainage projects. In fact,
they are only broached when the ne
cessity for public drainage districts re-
quires their consideration 1t is quite
certain that drainage districts must
soon be as much feature of irrigated
farming as they now are Of agricul-
ture in the humid sections.
