What Irrigation Means.

I have been handed clipping from
an eastern paper of such recent date
as March S, quoting from an address
on irrigation by r. lnsinger OF Spo-
kane. Wash. delivered before the
Hamilton club OF Chicago two years
ago MIR, Insinger is now first vice
president OF the National Irrigation
congress, and for the past two years
was chairman OF The board OF gov
ernors. In his Chicago address MIR
Insinger said. I'm part:
Irrigation invariably means inten-
sive cultivation, and this in turn,
means larger crops. Through the use
of smaller tracts the country districts
become so thickly populated that they
resemble suburbs OF large cities, but
there Is no congestion. nor is there
the menace of an underfed. poorly
housed population.
ut means the Ideal farm village.
lighted by electricity and furnished
with domestic water through pipes
good roads, rural mail delivery. teie-
phones, automobiles trolley lines and
other modern conVenlences. 1t means
union OF the social features OF town
and the healthful ones OF the coun-
try life. and. as some one has well
said. the disappearance OF lonesome
ness without the worse evil OF over
crowding.

SPOILS SYSTEM DOOMED
No Return to Old Theory, Civil
Service League Is Told.
fBy Telegraph to The Tribune.


Milwaukee. Dec. 6-The annual meeting
Of the National Civil Service Reform
League closed tonight with banquet.
Charles w Eliot was reelected president
to-day other officers chosen were: Sec
Rotary. Robert W. Belcher. Of New York:
assistant secretary, George T. keyes. Of
New York. and chairman OF the council,
Robert d. jerks. OF Philadelphia.
Confidence in President-elect Wilson to
support the merit principle was ex-
pressed. Secretary Belcher announced
the receipt OF letter from Governor VII
son saying that he thought IL wise not
10 associate his name with any assocla-
ton, though his interest In and sympathy
with the work Of the league have not been
and cannot be abated.
A resolution urging more thorough ap-
plication OF the merit system until spells
practices shall be rooted from govern
ment were adopted by the league. The
extension OF classified service in the ex-
ecutive department of the government. as
urged by President Taft, will. II is point
ed out, put a stop to the political activity
of officeholders II existing rules are en-
forced.
The federal law requiring the federal
Civil Service Commission TO make sys-
tematic effort TO base promotion, and even
continuance in service, solely on eff
cheney and merit was commended. and
Congress was urged to provide adequate
appropriations TO give effect to this pro-
vision.
The league again urges the passage OF
the pending bill for Improvement OF the
foreign service and opposes all prefer
ences of individuals or OF special classes
in making government appointments.
The application OF the merit system to
higher state officers was explained by
Harold n. Saxton. chief examiner Of the
