SESSION IS FINISHED
Irrigation Congress Closes Yery
Successful Meeting.
PINCHOT'S WORK GIVEN PRAISE
Resolutions Commend Forestry and
Reclamation Bureaus To Meet
Next at Pueblo, Colorado.
Spokane, Aug. 14. With the elec
tion of officers, the selection of Pueblo,
Col., as the next meeting place, the
passage of resolutions commending
both the efforts of Pinchot and Newell
in the forestry and reclamation bureaus,
asking a $10,000,000 irrigation fund
from congress and commending the
Mississippi deep waterway, the 17th
National Irrigation congress came to a
practical adjournment yesterday.
The following officers in addition to
the election of B. A. Fowler, of
Phoenix, Ariz., president, and Arthur
Hooker, of Spokane, secretary, were
elected unanimously :
First vice president, Ralph Twitch
eli, of New Meixco; second vice presi
dent, R. W. Young, of Utah; third
vice president, L. N. Newman, of
Montana; fourth vice president, W. F.
Fleming, of New Mexico; fifth vice
president, E. J. Watson, of South
Carolina.
An annual appropriation of $10,000,
000 for a period of five years to aid in
irrigation work is asked of congress in
resolutions by the National Irrigation
congress. I his is perhaps the most
important recommendation in the reso
lutions adopted, of which the following
is a synopsis :
That homesteaders under a govern
ment project shall not be required to
establish a residence before the gov
ernment is prepared to furnish them
with w&ter.
That the government take measures
to drain swamp lands in aid of land re
clamation and of public health.
That the Irrigation congress aid.
with other conservation organizations.
to bring about waterway improve
ments, reforestation, drainage and
other like projects.
That there be brought about surveys
and estimates of reclamation of sub
merged lands where the work is inter
national in character. (This refers to
Northern Idaho more specifically.)
J. hat the reclamation act be ex
tended to Hawaii.
That the states pass laws regulating
cutting of public and private timber.
That there should be no political
lines with reference to the use of water
for irrigation.
That the Mississippi deep waterway
be developed.
The committee turned down the res
olution asking a $5,000,000,000 bond
issue, after a debate in which some of
the Washington delegation upheld the
measure.
HOLD UP BANK.
Oregon Boys Secure $7,000 But Are
Soon Captured.
San Francisco, Aug. 14. Two Ore
gon youths, neither one much over 18
years of age, walked into the Valley
bank of Santa Clara Bhortly after 10
o'clock yesterday morning, and lining
up the , three clerks at the muzzles of
revolvers, pushed one of the men for
ward and told him to place $7,000 in a
bag and give it to them."
"And be quick about it, too," said
one of the hold-ups, "and if it is shy
I'll blow the top of your head off."
While the clerk was obeying the
youths, the others had a good chance
to study their faces, as neither of the
amateurish desperadoes was masked.
Cashier Birge placed the required sum
in a sack and gave it to the two invad
ers, who at once left the bank, went a
half a block, and jumped into a wait
ing automobile. There one of the men
placed a revolver at the chaffeur's
head and commanded him to "let her
out for all she's worth." The chaffeur
complied and the heavy car disappeared
in a cloud of dust.
Some miles out of town, however, the
machine broke down or the driver dis
abled it and the robbers took to the
fields. Their direction was ascertained
and shortly afterwards they were over
taken by Sheriff Langford and Deputy
Sheriff F. Lowell on the banks of
Moody creek.
Sheriff Langford made every effort
to discover the identity of the prison
ers, but beyond saying they were from
Oregon they would tell nothing of their
history.
Organize Against Middleman.
Colusa, Cal., Aug. 14. The farmers
of the Sacramento valley, particularly
on the west side of the Sacramento
river, are preparing to organize an as
sociation to "protect the growers from
giving half their profits to the middle
man." After thoroughly organizing it
is the purpose of the farmers to co-op
erate and break the system of selling
goodB through the commission agencies,
One meeting has already been held,
and the farmers are enthusiastic.
$500 Coin For $10 Fine.
San Francisco, Aug. 14. A gold
piece, valued by collectors at $500, was
paid into the police court today for a
$10 fine, and is said to be one of six
freak pieces coined in 1847 from which
the words, "In God We Trust" were
omitted by accident. These six coins
escaped into circulation before the stop
order was received and they are now
eagerly sought by collectors. It is not
known who paid the $10 piece.

ALL NATIONS INVITED.
Official Call Is Issued for Fourth Dry
Farming Congress.
Billings, Mont. Secretary John T.
Burns has issued the official call for the
fourth annual session of the Dry Farm
ing congress, to be held at Billings,
Mont., October 26-27-28, 1909. The
call is addressed to the president of the
United States, the diplomatic repre
sentatives of foreign nations, ministers
and secretaries of agriculture of all

dents of agricultural colleges, state
land boards, state engineers, state
boards of agriculture, national, state
and county agricultural associations,
or grange lodges, livestock associa

dents of towns, all commercial bodies.
railroad and immigration companies
and members of the Dry Farming con
gress. In addition to these the call is
sent to about 30,000 individual farm
ers and others interested in agriculture
in the West.
Big Washington Project.
Kennewick That preliminary plans
have' been made for a big irrigation
project, which will water thousands of
acres of sagebrush land in Grant
county are under way, is the informa
tion given out by J. M. Spencer of
Plains, Mont. Mr. Spencer, who has
large land interests in the Crab creek
country, Bays that the farmers in that
section have begun active preparations
to place 550,000 acres under irrigation
by means of a pipe line to be built
from the Columbia river to the Crab
creek valley in Grant county.
It will cost $5,000,000 to complete
this gi&antic undertaking, which will
be one of the longest gravity systems
in the world. The pipe line will run
more than 100 miles before it reaches
the nearest land to be watered and the
farthest point will be the Columbia
river, on the northern boundary of
Benton county.
Central Oregon Settling Up.
Burns Notwithstanding heavy im
migration and settlement the past few
years, there are yet in Harney county
over 3,000,000 acres of government
land subject to entry, including timber,
grazing, mineral and agricultural
land, a greater area than the entire
state of New Jersey, and .two-thirds
the area of the whole of Massachusetts.
Up to a short time ago, this vast
domain was devoted entirely to stock
raising, immense herds of cattle, sheep
and horses feeding over the illimitable
ranges during the greater part of the
year, while large quantities of bay
have been cut for their winter use.
This has been changed. The past
few seasons have brought hundreds of
industrious settlers who are opening up
farms and meeting with the most en
couraging success in agriculture.
Opium Cause of Revolt.
Victoria, B. C, Aug. 10. Further
particulars brought by the steamer
Monteagle concerning the Mohamme
dan uprising in Shensi and Kansu dis
tricts state the revolt was due to the
severe methods taken by the Chinese
local magistrate to suppress the opium
habit He seized one of the local gen
try who was an opium smoker, and had
his eyes gouged out and his arms
taken off. The people then rose in re
bellion and attacked the magistrate,
