BALTIMORE PROTESTS TO NO AVAIL.

On January perfunctory hearing will
be held at Washington by the Federal Reserve
Board. The hearing will be ostensiby to deter

lourishing business, but in reality is to salve
Baltmores wounded pride. We don't blame
Baltimore for feeling bad, but We really do not
see any way out OF it. We deserved the hank

pressed with the showing Richmond made. They
expressed their conviction without hesitation.

Richmond's case. We venture the prediction
that the bank VIII be doing business at the same

Under the Borah reclamation

government irrigation projects
will hereafter have twenty years
within which to pay for their
water instead of being required to
complete payments in ten years as
heretofore. Furthermore, under
this new law the settler will pay
five per cent Of the total water
right charge assessed against his
entry at the time Of fling bis
water fright application, and will
then be exempt from further pay
ments for period OF five years
Beginning FIVE years from the
date Of filing, the settler will pay
seven per cent annually of his
