FBI DAY, -
JUNE 30, 1893
THE IRRIGATION CONGRESS.
An interesting and important con
gress will meet at Los Angeles, Califor
nia, on October 10th, to sit for five days.
This is the National Irrigation Congress,
the last session of which was held at
Salt Lake City in September, 1891,
about 700 delegates being present. It
is expected that the Los Angeles con
gress will be numerously attended, not
only from all parts of the United States,
but from foreign countries as well. The
people of the United States haye only
just begun to realize the importance of
irrigation to this country. The availa
ble government land in the United
States, outside of the arid regions, is al
most exhausted. The time is nearly
gone when Uncle Sam could give every
man a farm. What is left is mostly in
the so-called "desert' ' regions those dry
and forbidding stretches of sage-brush
and cactus covered land, which were
long believed to be absolutely worthless
but which water, directed by ecience,
has in many cases transformed into ver
itable Edens. It is to these regions
that those of the rising generation who
desire to follow Horace Greeley's advice
and "go west" must look for their inde
pendent homes, where they may liter
ally sit under the shade of their own
vine and fig tree. If the man who
causes two blades of grass to spring up
where one grew before is worthy of
honor, what shall be said of the man or
men, who build flourishing cities, sur
rounded by smiling orchards and vine
yards, in spots where a few years ago a
jack rabbit would have starved to death ?
Los Angeles itself is a good proof of the
value of irrigation, for it has grown
within a few years from a sleepy semi
Mexican pueblo of 12,000 ; people to a
live and beautiful American metropolis
of 5,000 population, and this increase is
due to the development of the surround
ing country by means of irrigation.
The report of the government board
oi engineers upon tne practicability ot a
boat railway at the dalles has been com
pleted and submitted. In this it is
stated that a canal would not cost much
more than $4,000,000. It will be re
membered that in Senator Dolph's
speech here nearly two years ago he
stated as his belief that a canal would
cost $10,000,000 and that be favored a
boat railway as being vastly more likely
to receive governmental aid. The peo
ple of the Inland Empire would gladly
accept a portage real, bnilt with refer
ence to a future boat railway. It is a
matter of fact that Oregon has received
vast sums of money and probably more
than hat share in river and harbor ap
propriations, and the task of securing
enough to construct a canal triple the
cost of the one at the Cascades is obvi
ously impossible for several years to
come. At the same time the govern
ment has a decided repugnance to ex
pend money on a temporary improve
ment such as a portage road. So that
either a boat railway or a canal and locks
would stand little chance of attainment
in the near future without a combined
and well sustained appeal from the
whole region to be benefitted. In short
the congressmen of Oregon, Washington
and Idaho must be a unit for the de
mand. Strength and Health.

Her Heart Burst Asunder.
Burlington, la., June 29. The sud
denness of the death of Mrs. Gus Wal
den, who was apparently m perfect
health, was so strange that a post
mortem examination was held. Her
heart was found burst asunder. Physi
cians say no other such case was ever
heard of. The cause is supposed to have
been a tremendous emotional convul
sion. Captain Sweeney, U. S. A., San

Remedy is the first medicine I have
ever found that would do me any good."
