3lccd Iiver Slacicr. liooniiivicii, ok., m:it. v isoi. 27; JjlIiWATlOX iVXUHKSS. ltoivntly at ttic rviniest of Governor Thompson of Utah, the utivornors of cevi'titoon states and territories west of t tie Mississippi, appointed eaoh thirty di-legates to it congress to Ik) helil nt Kiit I.itKe City, I tali, whleh congress i.sM-iulded ut that point Tuesday. The uti,rt is to devise a plan by whieh the irciuvul government will turn all mikI lands over to the states wherein ilieyaiv situated, the states In torn to ii-' the lands, or the value thereof, In t weir lveluinut ion. To do this the lands would have to ho given to Individuals or i-orporations, or rather certain ;aroas, !n -fentlily of large dimensions would luxe to be turned over to them for re t lainatiou, and a maximum value tlxod l r siid lands when reclaimed; the i.oids beiiitf disposed of to settlors in ...ed quantities. The question is a (..llleult ouo to deal with for the reason i nut the Anieriean people have very justly become strenuously opposed to parting w4th any more of the govern 1..1IU domain to corporations. While u is true the lands would not be given to the corporations, and while the maximum value would bo fixed, and l ie right of the citizen to purchase pro tected, it would be hard to make the 1 .il'iie understand this, nud so over time their opposition. And yet it is asity seen that without some such j.v tiiu millions of acres of highly pro ductive lands will remain idle, and i.on (productive. Lying west of the . iissisippi, is w hat was thirty years iigo known as the "Great American insert" a vast country at present producing but a trifle, yet shown by conservative estimates to bo capable of Mipimrting the present population of tin entire United States. This vast urea lacks one thing, and one thing oniy, and that is, rainfall. To over come tins it is proiosed to utilize the streams, to gather the water from the vast watersneds and store it up for use. To do this will require large sums of money, and necessarily the interven tion i.f wealthy corporations. The cuigrcss will have adjourned ere this is in print, aud we sincerely hope will have originated some plan by which t;ie work may be commenced. It was a happy thought to have the meeting ui r-ati Lake City, for there is the home tue nucleus ot irrigation in this country. Whatever else may be said of the .dormon people, it is certain that they found the .Salt lake basin a desert, and they have made it a veritable gar den. Jo accomplish this they have utilized the water courses, and furnish ed their land that moisture which is denied it by natund process. We be hove the meeting at iSaltJLake City Tuesday, to have been the most impor tant gathering held in this country in the lat thirty years. If its plans are successful, an agricultural empire will be, created where now drouth and deso lation alone prevail. If he w ho makes two blades of grass grow where one grew before, is a philanthropist; what shall be said of those who produce seven tons of hay, or 300 bushels of po tatoes, or 40 bushels of w heat to the acre from lauds that heretofore pro duced in prolific years a half dozen sage hens to the square mile? Yet this is exactly what the successful car rying out of the ideas of this irrigation congress would do. LESSORS OF THE YEAR. This is the best year the American farmer has seen in a decade. It stands out with special prominence against the sombre background of last year's drouth. Pienty walks this year in fields which last year Poverty claimed for her own. The western counties of Kansas and Nebraska have heretofore witnessed the struggle of the homestead er to keep himself and his family alive. This year they witness his struggle to harvest his abundant crops. What are the lessons of this phenom enal year? That irrigation is not need ed in those semi-arid regions where there has been enough rain this year to make the crops ? Not a bit of it. It is irrigation, and not the rain belt, that has been vindicated. The dillereuce between last year's poverty and this year's plenty is purely a dillereuce in ilie water supply. When there is lack of water the Western farmer becomes an object of charity. When there is ull the water he needs he becomes a happy prosperous man. God Almighty has taught him by this years experi ence that water is the one essential lacking to make his business a perfect success. Then let him get water from the rivers and from under the earth, and make sure of the blessings which a merciful God has this season dropped tiom the skies. There is a deeper lesson underlying ;he results or this unusual year. And ;his one, too, clinches the argument in avor of irrigation. The largest factor u the farmer's present prosperity is . hat tlrere is a foreign demand more han sufficient to take the total surplus u od nets of the American farm. If this vere not the case the big crops would i mke prices low as they did in 1889. i'he fact is that the tendencies of the in:e-i, at home aud abroad, are rapidly vidcniii'-' the matkets for American products. Growing cities, expanding manufactures and mulilpl.i lug mine-, are broadening the homo markets inontn by mouth. Various causes uiv rendering the foreign supply more pre carious. The time is not far distant when we shall consume at home nearly all the products of our fields, and when the Increasing foreign demand will more than sustain high prices. What then? In those years of prosperity w ho will reap the steady bcuctlts of good markets and high prices? Will it Ih the farmer who knows his crops are sure every year, and who can inten sify the productiveness of his acres, or; will it bo the farmer who depends on the precarious rainfall of the uncertain climate west of the Mississippi ? There Is but one answer. The future belongs to the irrigating farmer. This is truly a remarkable year. It is it year pregnant with suggestions mid with less ns, and both the suggestions and the lessons point unerringly lothe irrigating farmer as the man wlu has the bulge on Fate. When the Prince of Wales visited this country several years ago, he was banqueted at Albany New York. Jot Calvin a lawyer bore such a remarka ble resemblance to the Prince that he was invited to the dinner, and the Prince's attention called to his eounU r part. As the champagne (lowed the Prince warmed up, and turning to Calvin said: 1 see Mr. Calvin t In. t you resemble me in a remarkable man- j nor; Was your mother ever in Kng- land? Those who heard the remark looked up in astonishment, expecting) a scene, but Calvin raised his glass, and with a bright smile lllumin uing i his countenance cheerfully replied:; He was not your Highness, but my father was ! Senator Dolph was at the Cascade Locks recently. He extended an invi tation to citizens of The italics to meet him there, which invitatiou was very promptly tabled. Had the citizens of the Inland Kinpire icrfornied their en tire duty, they would have sent a select committee of brawny, muscular men each armed with a double barreled breech-loading club, to do the proper and artistic honors of the occasion. Scat ! You IHlly-be-whiskered old j ornithorhynchus. Get hence with your j bill! It is really a pity that something is not done with our water-power which is unexcelled on the coast. With hun-i dreds of tons of wheat going by our i doors every day, there is no better place where it can be stopped tempora- j ily and ground by t lie cheapest power j in the world.

The democrats of New York have ) nominated Kosivell P. Flower for gov- j ernor. lie win make me race against, i J. Sloat Fasset. November is a bad j month for Flowers, but it is also a told ' month for those delicate creatures who part their names in the middle. There is absolutely no excuse for " J. Sloat." The Portland exposition this year promises to fall far below that of last year. FrankjDckuiu, who is a gentle man and who also knew how to trans act business is no longer in charge, and his place is occupied by a news paper penny-a-liner with remarkable cran ial development and nothing more. The state fair commenced at Salem j Monday and closes today. The old Willamette hotel made enough money no doubt in the la-it six days to pay all its running expenses, and interest on the money invested in the cheerful old penal institution. To illustrate the dillereuce between the works of Nature and the products of Civilization, it is only necessary to remember that God made man Civil ization, the drummer.

When the health is fairly good, and there is no special strain to be put upon the system, the normal appetite may be trusted to indicate the kind and quantity of food necessary to maintain that con dition. Naturally the appetite varies with the changing seasons, and unless it indicates an unreasonable extreme of in dulgence or abstinence no attention need be paid to any other monitor. Much harm is done by injudicious or meddlesome friends suggesting that a person is too stout or too thin, too pale or too ruddy, and serious disturbances of the system often follow the mischiev ous advice to take Bome bitters or pills, or refrain from fattening food or drink. Paying attention to any of these fads is like playing with lire. If you are ill enough to seem to warrant any radical change of diet or any application of medicine, consult your physician at once. Above all, avoid quack medicines. To use the opinion of a successful dealer ia them, whose bank balance is inore liberal than his conscience, they are "made to BclL" Harper's Bazar. Ur.
