Irrigated and unlrrlgated plat, all
conditions being Idwratlcal, are so fa
vorable to Irrigation that no doubt
temalns as to the value of the use of
water on the growing crops. To Illus
trate: A half acre plat was planted
to corn on June 14, 1907. Between
June 20 and 28 the pumping plant
was Installed and on June 29, with
the corn already thrco Inches high, the
corn was Irrigated for the first time.
In a few day the corn showed the
effects of the water, and Jn three
weeks It had a decided advantage
over the unlrrlgated corn.
The yield In green fodder per acre
was: Once Irrigated corn, 7,000
pounds; twice Irrigated, 9686 pounds;
unlrrlgated, C647; per cent of Increase
once, Irrigated over unlrrlgated, 24;
tflce irrigated over unlrrlgated, 71
Six average unlrrlgated stalks with
ears weighed 10 pounds; elx average
stalk, twice Irrigated, weighed 18 6;
12 unlrristtited ear weighed 6 pound
12 ounces; 12 ears twice Irrigated,
weighed 7 pounds 4 ouuees; Increased
weight due to Irrigation, 26 per cent.
The experiment with potatoes Irrl
gated and unlrrlgated, In the same
satisfactory way, the yield being as
follows: Yield of tuber per acre,
unlrrlgated, 2604 pounds; Irrigated
once 6760 pounds; Irrigated twice,

MilmlnKton. Del., June 2. The;
principal reason why the democracy
of Deleware ha presented the name
of George Gray for the democratic
presidential nomination Is that It be
lieves he has been "right" on all the
burning questions of the day ever
since the beginning of his public ca
reer. The contention Is made, too, that he
Is "right" as to age, robust physical
health, and training, and ha all
those endowments of mind, of edu
cation, of experience, and of human
sympathy that should be possessed by
the man who aspires to become the
head of the nation. Judge Gray Is a
six-footer, deep and broad of che.t,
straight of stature, and has kindly
brown eyes. He love children and
children love him. Every forenoon,
whva he starts from home for th
courthouse he 1 accompanied by ha'f
a dozen of the neighboring youngsters:
who think he Is Just the JoPtntj
friend on earth. When Ire emerges j
from the courthouse In the afternoon .
the boys and girls are waiting to es
cort him home. '
Gray Is no mollycoddle, even If he I
is a Judge. He hag never killed'
wolves or broken broncos, but he can
run a steamboat or a locomotive, and
if it were necessary he' ccuk' con
struct either. His father, Andrew C
Gray, was the leading railroad and
canal promoter of the fctate years
ago, and. In his youth, George gained
an Intimate knowledge of boats and
engines. "Thus It happened." relates
one of his biographers, "that those
among whom he was born and bred
were accustomed'' to see him either In
the cab of an engine with h's hand,
011 the throttle, or In ths stem of a
boat grasping the tiller, while his
keen glance watched the rail r swept
the river." j
pioiHtr (kijii t'liaMT.
Long before some of the m .l who
have gained reputations as octopus
chasers ever thought of pursuing the
rascally creature to. Its lair George
Gray had followed the trail, had bag
ged the game and had brought home
Its pelt In triumph. The octopus was
the Ilaltlmore and Ohio Railroad, and
according to the men who say they:
know, it was the first time In the
hlst of 'a state that ;i corporation
was Indicted. Not only wis the n. &
O. Indicted through Giaf efforts,
but It was fined as well. The'
charge was obstructing th public
highway In the outskirts of Wilming
ton. '
He accomplished this while he was1
attorney general of tho state, anf he
filled the Job so successfully that h
was given another term. R'fore hi,
second term was completed he was'
elected to the United States fenate to
succeed Rayard and remained In the
senat 14 years. Since tnat time his
activities have been almost as well
known as those of President Roose
velt. He has been of great -tssistanc?
to more than one president nn hai
helped him to" shine In the office. He
was a member of the High Joint com-
mission and of t'le Spanish peace
commission li li'": wn ,nn;ioiHed
If c ..ir,.i,;t In.ti'rt thi follou'lnir venr
and in 1 J 0 2 and 1903 served as mem
ber and chairman of tho anthracite
coal strike commission, which ser
tled the mining troubles In Pennsyl
vania and put a large fesi'her In
President Roosevelt's cap. After
serving on the anthracite commission
Judge Gray was made chairman of
the Alabama coal trike commission,
and in that capacity a' quitted himself
with equal distinction.
An Orator.
It was .Senator Gray's splendid!
fight against the "force bill" In 1S92;
that established his fame as an ora
tor and statesman. Tho throe day
speech he made against the measure
In coriceu'cd to have given it the,
knockout drops that put it to sleep,
forever. Refore Gray started his'
speech It was admitted by even Its
bitterest opponents that the bill
would pns and the republican sena
tors were gathered In the chamber
for the final vote that would make
the south a vassal of the north.
After thp force bill was killed, the
whole south rang with praises of
Gray, and the hope was expressed that
the day would come when the grate
ful people south of Mason and Dixon's
line might show their appreciation of
his services In some substantial man
tier. Now, Judge Gray's friends say
that golden opportunity has come.
During his 14 years In the senate
Gray took a leading part In all the
discissions of Important public ques
tions, and from the start to the fin
Ish of his service there he never lost
an opportunity of attacking the exist
Ing tariff laws. He claimed then and
still asserts that our tariff wall con
fers special privileges upon a small
class of beneficiaries and fosters mo
nopolles. His friends, the farmers
Judge Gray says, are the chief suf
ferer by the tariff a It Is now writ
ten upon the books, for they must
endure all the hardships and exac
tions forced by the law, but they re
ceive none of the benefits enjoyed
by the more fortunate classes of citi
zen. Here are a few thought that
Gray ha contributed to the tariff
discussion:
IN Tariff Portion.
"What right has the government to
go Into partnership with people who
are engaged In one Industry to the
detriment of those engaged In anoth
er? What sort of conception of gov
ernment Is that which allow the
hand of governmental power to gol
down Into my pocket to take out a
dolby there, not for the purpose of
puttlng .lt Into the treasury of the
nation, but to transfer It to the pock
et of another? ,
"The poison of the system of tariff
protection has got Into the very
blood of the American people.
It is not right and you cannot de

fend It upon any ground of falrnos
and Justice between man and man."
Here are a few more Gray thoughts
on vital problems:
The trust "By the provision of
our monstrous tariff the government
has become a partner In these com
bines. It stands guard while tho In
dividual member of the partnership
work their designs and carry oul
their purposes."
Labor unions "Unless my Judg
ment Is at fault and my faith un
founded, labor union will soon have
passe. through their period of trial
and tribulation, and will emerge 'on
a bright and sunlit plain, where true
American character, the fruit of the
American Individual liberty that bad
Its birth on the day we celebrate, will
Illustrate the worth of our Institu
tions, and make perpetual for us and
our posterity the blessings of civil and
religious liberty."
Centralization "I cannot sympa
thize with those whose constant en
deavor eems to be not only to mini
mize the right of the states', but to
obscure their true relation to the fed
eral government. .
"No one now doubts that this union
of ours Is an 'Indliutolublo union' and
no more should there bo doubt thai
it Is a union of Indestructlvlo states.
"Liberty without law Is anarchy,
but law without liberty Is despotism."
"I see no necessity to expand ih'i
powers of the central government.
They are large enough."
Judge Gray makes no bones of say
ing that he I opposed to tne reten
tion of the Philippines and Is anxious
to give the Islanders their Independ
ence as soon as they can manige
themselves. He Is for tho fullest
measure of religious liberty; stand
for a free press, the exclusion of the
Chinese, and reciprocity between the
United States and the powers of the
world; and Is against ship subsidies
and all other kinds of subsidies fl.-nt,
last, and all the time.

China Is not a nation In the sense
In which we ordinarily use the word.
If we picture to ourselves the coun
tries of Europe, with their different
languages and different customs,
drawn together Into a tonne confed
eration under the government of a
conquering race, u;e shall have some
small conception of what this Chinese
"nation" really Is. The . peoples of
those different European countries
are all Caucasians; the different peo
ples of China- are all Mongolians.
Those Chinese peoples speak 18 or 20
different languages, each divided In
to almost Innumerable dialects nnd
sub-dialects. They are governed by
Manchu, or Tartar, conquerors .who
spring from a different stock, wear
different costomes, nnd speak among
themselves a language wholly differ

tongues.
