PROMISE OF EXTENSIVE

Concerning James River harbor i'm
provements. Mr.. Reed told OF the con-
ference held between Lieutenant Colo
mel Jervey, the United states Army en-
I.
recommending improvements to the
James by deepening the channel TO -
feet. Mr.. Reed explained that $500
coo would be appropriated by Con-
Grcss TO start the improvements. but
the government had many other large
matters that called for Immediate at
tention and cannot spare the money
this year.
The Improvement Of James River"
he read, stands for communication
by direct steamers with the outside
world whereby our manufacturers can
obtain their raw material on equal
terms with other open ports. whereby
our merchants, with unrestricted capt.
tai. can bring to this port commodi :
ties in volume. The volume of prop
crty transported between Richmond
and New York is mere fraction Of
the volume which will enter the port
OF Richmond from the outside world
and leave the port OF Richmond for
the outside world when our river is
deepened and Strengthened"

n Notices were received this week by
those who had made applications to
make homestead entries on the dis
puted Northern Pacific lands that the
Secretary Of the Interior had denied
the rehearing in the test case of Guss
Hagenstein VS.. the N. P. Ry. and de-
cided that the land belonged to the
railway company. This will be a
great disappointment to those who
had filed and will greatly delay the
settling of. large area of fine land,
for if the decision had been rendered
against the railway company, many
thousands of acres of this land would
have been broken up and put into
crop this spring.-Enid Echo.
