ENDORSE IRRIGATION
ASSOCIATION RECENTLY FORM.
Ed At TT. PIERRE is WIDE
" ENDORSED.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
From the Capitol City, the Various
State Institutions and From
Many Different Parts Of
the Sunshine State.

Fort Pierre.-The organization per-
fected at Fort Pierre a short time ago
and known as the Great Plains Irriga-
ton association, has advanced with
rapid strides in promoting the inter
ests and publicity necessary for re-
clamation and conservation progress.
The officers of the association are
almost submerged under the ava
lanche of concentrations and endorse
ments which are pouring in from all
yer the country. Prominent public
men, government officials, capitalists,
newspaper men, scientists and men
from every walk of life are econ
mending. endorsing, offering sugges-
tons and requesting information.
This section Of the state is solid for
the advancement of the project and
it appears to be merely a matter of
time until the entire northwest will
demand an immediate survey.
Whether or not the original project
will be carried out in it's entirety is a
question which cannot be answered
for a certainty until the survey is
made, but there appears to be no ques,
ton but what the great plans of North
and South Dakota will be irrigated
from the Missouri river and the orig.
inal project Of tapping the river at
the mouth OK the Yellowstone and
running it southeast to White river in
South Dakota is believed by engineer
ing experts t. be the most practicable
Of the many suggested.
That this movement will become
one of the most important of political
issues in the northwest is realized by
politicians 81 over the country and
unsuccessful attempts have been made
to pick flaws IN the procedure of this
development organization. The fact
remains despite any contention to the
contrary, that this movement will dc
more good to more people than any
other factor in the development Of the
northwest.

LODGE RESOLUTION, WARNS Ma

MENT ON UNITED STATES.
PASSED

istration Has Not Officially
Endorsed Measure.

Washington. The United
States senate issued a warning to
the nations of the world against
encroachment upon the continents OF
North and South America. The Unit
ed States will not see without grave
concern said the senate, any suitable
naval or military site pass into control
Of a foreign corporation. when such
possession might threaten the com
munications or the safety of the Unit
ed States"
So vital were the issues discussed in
the Lodge resolutions, which set forth
the policy of the United States as to
points situated like Magdalena Bay, in
Lower California, that the doors of
the senate were closed for three doors.
while the resolution was debated in
secret session. 1t finally passed with
only four votes against it.
Notwithstanding the comparative
unanimity of the senate upon the note
of warning it was understood the meas
ure did not have the official indorse-
ment Of the administration. 1t was
framed entirely outside the state de.
ecutive consulted with regard to the
senate's pronouncement.
The resolution arose from the re.
ported attempt Of a Japanese syndi.
cate to secure land about Magdalena
Bay. In the form finally adopted by
tho cnrafn il 1nn1orac auoinct tho or,
QUESTION of IN threatening location
by a foreign corporation which has
such a relation to another government
as to give that government practical
power to control for naval or military
purposes
Those who opposed the resolution
on it's final passage were Senators
Cummins, McCumber, Percy and
Stone.
Demand was made in the secret ses.
sion for the designation TO the coun'
try toward which the resolution wae
directed. Those who supported it, in.
Guiding Senators Lodge, Root, Burton,
Hitchcock and others. declared it was
not a warning to any nation in par
ticular, but a definition of this coun,
try's position, before embarrassing
situations might arise"
Senator Cummins opposed the reso.
luton because he believed it was not
direct and specific enough, he said,
in it's reference to the control Of land
by foreign corporations. Senator
Lodge insisted that the opening Of the
Panama canal made it necessary for
the United States to make clear at
once it's opposition to the establish.
ment of any foreign power, either di.
rectly or through a commercial cor.
poration, where it might threaten the
safety Of this country.

Mitchell.-That the total amount Of
money on deposit in the banks OF the
state for the quarter ending June IA
is $3,182,245.5S less than on deposit
at the end of the quarter ending April
IS, is shown by the quarterly bank
examiners report. The fact of this
decrease is explained that right now
is the season between the spending of
money for the years expenses of the
coming crop. That bank deposits Will
take a decided boost in the next
three months is u%ndoubted, as South
Dakota is facing the greatest year
she ever saw, unless the too abundant
rains spoil the excellent showing for
small grain. Even now, much of it is
out Of harms way and a few days of
wind and hot SUI will dry out the
grain, from the effects of the recent
heavy rains. The greatest decrease
in deposits over the preceding quarter
is shown in the deposits of the state
banks. Here the decrease alone
amounts to S~1.219,372.43. OF this
amount the decrease under the head
Ing, deposits subject to check is
manifested by the reports which show
that United States deposits for this
quarter exceed those of the past quar-
ter by $3.400.72. The total increase
OF liabilities of this quarter over last
is $~1.149,193.59. The total decrease
OF liabilities is S2,159, 126.4S. The to-
tai incraese of assets of this quarter
over last is $314.565.63. The total de-
crease is $1,324,49S.52 so.

of IS each. The present payment is
of a similar character, and is being
paid to those Indians, both male and

ANOTHER COSTLY PROJECT.
Second Largest Private Irrigation
Plant in the State,

Plant in the State.
Pierre.-Among the private irriga-
ton plants in this part of the state,
which will cover extensive operations
in that line, is that being put in on
the Spencer ranch in Sully county.
on the site of old Fairbank. Mr..
Spencer is putting about $40 1000 into
the plant for putting water on a thou
sand acres which he owns in the Mis-
souri, valley. His plan comprehends
the pumping of water from the river
into two reservoirs which are made
by placing earthen dams across the
lower ends of draws" in the bluffs
east of his farm. The water from the
river will be pumped into these reser-
voirs for use at any time needed for
flooding the crops on the tract, and at
the same time the plan is arranged
for utilizing whatever water may be
secured from the drainage into these
reservoirs. The water is carried from
the river to the reservoirs in an eight
inch pipe, and is lifted over q hundred
feet in the mile of pipe from the
stream to the reservoirs. Water is to
be taken out of reservoirs by siphons,
to prevent possibility of cutting away
through the flowing of water through
open bitches over or near the dams.
The project is so extensive that while
work upon it has been under way all
summer it will not be ready for use
for the crop of this year, but is ex-
pected to be ready with the reservoirs
filled before the water will be needed
for the crop of another year, While
the amount expended looks large, it
really mean about $40 for each acre
to be handled, and the experience OF
irrigation in this country shows that
the increased production in any one
year should practically meet this cost.
