THE SCHUMANN QUINTET
Moscow People VIII Enjoy a Rare
Treat i'm Concert to be Presented
Tomorrow Night

The Schumann Quintet, sterling
organization of five artists, with Carl
Lampert, for nine years first violin
in the Theodore Thomas orchestra, as
leader, is one of the all star attrac-
lions on the high school lyceum course
this season. The great organization
brings to Moscow a genuinely new
idea, that of presenting symphonic
, concerts" was a company of only five
musicians. The securing Of the SYM
phonic effect is brought about by a
specially constructed reed organ
which is carried by the company. This
gives all the wind and reed effects of
a large orchestra and, combined with
the piano and stringed instruments,
produces an effect as surprising as it
is unique To create added interest
the quintet gives it's program set
ting of historic costumes, but the
costuming is only incidental.
The sSchumann Quintet is a compa-
ny proud of it's personnel, each Of
whom is an artist Carl Lampert, the |
leader and first violin, was born near
Dusseldorf, studied under Jacobson
and in the Prague conservatory under
RUGBY. Nicolai Zedeler, cello, is
pupil of Steindel, and is noted among
Chicago musicians. He comes OF a
family, his sister being VIC
lin soloist with Sousas band. Nor
man Weller second violin, is a Ger
man by birth, comes of a musical fam
ly, and has been selected by Mr..
Lampert because of his solid musical
,ttainments. Jeanette Phillips Lam :
bert, pianist, has devoted her life to
he study of her favorite instrument,
Ind is one of the best accompanies in
he country. Miriam Zedeler, organ
st, is musician of rare ability, and
er handling of the difficult instru-
lent she plays adds much to the sue
ess of the concert.

Statewide
Water Code
Conference

eff all the projects and water
claims filed on the Yakima river
and its tributaries were carried out
the river would have to supply
enough water to flood the entire
state of Washington 800 feet deep
every year." This was the state
ment by Prof. O. l.. Waller of the
State college at Pullman in his ad-
dress before the statewide water
code conference which was held at
the Tacoma Commercial club last
week.
Prof. Waller was one of the
principal speakers at the conference.
His remark quoted was in support
of an appeal for a new water code
which would do away with the con-
fict in the state laws, which he
said causes much confusion and pre-
vents capital from developing the
resources of Washington.
Preliminary steps toward the
formation of powerful organiza-
tion which will have for it's object
the recodifcation of the water lays
and the presentation to the next
legislature of bill containing a
new code were completed at the
meeting. A special committee con-
sisting of 7. A. Noble, North Yaki-
ma, chairman; Prof. Waller, Judge
John A. Shackleford, Tacoma; C.M.
Fassett. Spokane, and R. B. Will
hanson, North Yakima, was ap-
pointed to draw up plans for the
new organization.
More than 100 delegates, repre-
senting hydro-electric plants, irri-
cation companies and commercial
organizations in Washington, at
tended the meeting.
The conference was called to or
der by Judge Carroll B. Graves,
chairman of the executive commit
tee appointed by Gov. Lister.
Judge Graves outlined the reasons
for the conference and the objects
to be attained. He declared that
for the past IL years the state leg
islatures had had the new water
code before them, but that it had
failed to pass each time. The rea-
son for this, he said, was the lack
of agreement between the different
organizations which the code would
affect and for this reason the con-
ference was called SO that all par
ties interested might have Aan op-
portunity to assist in the framing
of the proposed legislation.
Other speakers were DR.. Henry
Suzzalo of the University Of Wash
ington and Gov. Ernest Lister. The
governor said:
"In 1899 there were 126,307 ac-
res of land under water in the state
of Washington. In 1909 there
were 334,37 acres under irriga-
tion, gain of 208,071 acres in the
10 years. In Ogegon there were
38S,319 acres under irrigation in
1899, and in 1909 there were $685.
129 acres, a gain of 297,819 acres
''In Idaho there were 602,56S
acres of land under water in 1899,
ard l ,143,848 acres in 1909, a gain
of SAL, ,2SO acres.
"We all realize that in the state
of Washington there is larger
population than in either of the
two states; there is just as pro-
gressive a citizenship, but the de-
velopment of our land subject to
irrigation is far behind. This, |
believe, is due almost entirely to
the absence of water code in
this state. The Oregon water code
was adopted in 1909. and the Idaho

sometimes think" said M. B.
Haynes of Hanford, who was in
North Yakima, with his son, at the
Commercial hotel, in an interview
in the Yakima Herald, "that you
people in Yakima ought to give
more attention and consideration
to Hanford and that section of the
Columbia river than you do. Right
now, and its development hasn t
started, it is a mighty impe rtant
district from the Yakima view
point.
81 don't know whether you
know it or not, but for the most of
the time the Priest Rapids power
plant is carrying your Yakima cleo
trio burdens. You have nice lit
tie power plant up the Naches river
but it goes dry in the summer and
freezes up in the winter, while the
sturdy old Columbia river works
right along on a 365-day PROPOSE
tion each year.
"Pendleton and Walla Walla,
Kennewick and Pasco, as we'll as
North Yakima, are tied up with
the Priest Rapids plant and | don't
know how much more besides. If
the Shields water power bill now
before congress comes through as a
law, which seems to be altogether
probable, there will be some great
development at Priest Rapids,
though it is only those who know
about such things who are giving
the matter any thought.
"It will cost less to throw a dam
across the Columbia river at the
Rapids than it did to build the dam
at Keokuk on the Mississippi; less
than it cost to build the dam at
Assouan on the Nile, which the
British put up in Egypt.
eve in the United States are
paying annually $l77 100000 to
Chill for her nitrateS and are thus
sending that country a major por-
tiop of her revenue. We are find
ing out where Europe gets it's am
munition since they have 20 nitrate
plants supplying their needs for
fertilizer and ammunition.
"We have but one nitrate plant
on this continent and that is on the
Canadian side of the Niagara Falls.
Such a plant will be established at
Priest Rapids when the water de-
velopment has been undertaken,
which will be soon now. The fed.
eral government says there is half
million horse power there.
"There is another thing to con-
slider. When the dam is built the
spillway will furnish water for the
irrigation Of 300, 900 acreH, and the
land is there. There is country
which will hold the Yakima valley
and have room left for second
such, splendid soil, ETC., and its de-
velopment is near at hand.
"Some of your citizens, such as
o. A. Fechter, William Lee, jr.,
and such men know something of
what the Columbia river mears to
Yakima, but your people as whole
are not alive as to what is likely to
eventuate." )"

Dam
Bill Passes
House SILT

The general dam bill, amended
from the form in which it passed
the Senate, regulating water power
development ON navigable streams,
passed the House Friday by vote
of 81 to II.
This bill, which is interesting 10.
cally because it will probably mean
the development of the large power
site at Priest Rapids, originated in
the House late last winter as the
Ferris bill. 1t passed the House
almost unanimously, and while
strongly opposed by the water pow
.er interests, had the unqualified
endorsement of the conservation
lists.
The power interests were strong
enough in the Senate to throw it
over and to substitute the Shields
bill. This bill raised perfect tenn
pest among the more rabid conser-
vationists, but it passed the Senate
by substantial majority.
When the Shields bill got to the
House for action, both sides were
prepared for battle and the bill
just passed by the, House is COM
promise. So much of compro-
mise is it that it even lost it's name.
Most of the amendments added in
the House had tosdo with a regu-
lation of service and rates and the
making of some of the phraseol-
ogy moro definite and certain.
The bill now goes to confer
ence of the two committees of the
House and Senate having juris-
diction in the matter, and they no
doubt will arrive at a bill that
will be satisfactory to all hands.
This water power legislation is
on the "must go" hook of the ad-
ministration's program for this ses-
sion, and President Wilson is re-
ported to have said that he would
sign whatever bill Congress passes,
even to the Shields bill.

it by the legislature, as the differ

protected. | hope now that, as a
result of this meeting, a code will
