Jan 2 iBenator McNary ha reported favor ably from tho committer on Irriga tion and reclamation his bill making availably I2SO.000.000 for reclama tion purpose. The tremendous value that bat already accrued from tho expenditure of f 123,000,000 for reclaiming and Irrigating barren land Ik et forth In this report. It shows that approximately 1,780,000 acre of laud have bc;n made avail able, and now have a market raluo of from flOO to f'SO an acre. In Id 1 8, 1. Of. 1.000 acres of this re claimed land were cropped and pro- liluced an average of J 63. CO an acre. "The money baa been wholly In adequate for tho needs." say ihe report "This has rendered Its ex penditure more uneconomical than jit etherwise: would be I "In vluw of the result obtained, surely no one needs any argument to be. convinced of tho wisdom of the I reclamation policy." continue Sen 'alor McS'nry In his report "Waste lands have been made produ-tive jOieat reservoir of local, state and national taxation and revenue have ' bcn created. Agricultural produc-' jiion has been creatly increased with out Injury to any section of the country. i "Prosperous homes havo beon j built, towns and cities havo grown f 'up and a great market for nil kinds! fof manufactured products has been! , created, aside from the great addi tion made to the supply of food products. No similar expenditure of money by the government has added such wealth and strength to the na tion as this. lr- "The Unto. , U opportune. Our great need is Increased agricultural production. This must come largely through Increased cultivated acre age. Suitable unlrrlgated public land Is not available. This Is all gone. Any increase must come through reclamation or not at alt.

Out at the county Jail In tho grisly, dim hour of dawn, an experiment In psychology was made this morning when 200 prisoners were forced to witness tho hanging of Raffalo Durrage, convict ed murderer. Hardened criminals, and other murdercru and felons whose epU tlon for their crimes bos not ye brought them within the shadow of the gallows, were placed In cells, tier upon tier of which surrounded the square in which tho scaffold wm erected. It m the contention of Sheriff I Peters that the sJght of the gruo jsome trappings, watching the nooso adjusted, the administration of tho t last rites, the click of the springing trap and the Jerking of the rope aa the body plunged beneath the 'scaf fold, all together would have a most salutary effect upon those la whoso future life might come temptations ent and then tho noose was slipped From one of the higher tiers of cells came a strident shout of "when do we eat?" Tier by tier tho cry was taken up and swelled Into a " roar above the warden's office as tho trap was sprang and Darrage dropped In fo the space beneath the scaffold, dead, with "when do we eat," as his requiem.
