IPULSE OF WESTERY PROGRESS ‘The Olosing Chapter in the Oattle War : in Wyoming. gTRONG ARGUMENT ON IRRIGATION jammary of & Skin Game—A Blooming | Desert—Advancing Toward the Park ~Recent Evants In the North: west Briefly Recounted. The forty-three warriors, mostly from ‘exns, who Invaded Johnson county with an vowed purpose and guns to annihilate the wo-called rustlers of that region.will be tried, Jf tried at all, 1n Cheyenne. The inguiry at Laramia, as detailed by tne dispatohes, con- (vinced Judge Blake that not only was preju- dice against the cattlemen too strong to in- wure a fair trial in Albany county, but it \Woutd be practically impossiblé to secure an uinprejudicea jury in the county. The strong oint In the decision ordering the trlal in aramie county 1s the statoment that fully of the 1,200 citizons eligible for jury ervice in Aibany county disqualified thiem eives by voting for condemnatory resolu- lons at fndignation moetings held soon after ho arrost of the raiders. The 900 eligibie would ensily be exhausted by tho challengos f counsel for the prisoners and the various witul objeotions developed at the examination of prospective jurors. ere Was no other miternative under these conditions than to Melec: Choyenne for the trial. Will the trial be beld! The question is Yoing discussed in all its bearings by the {press of tho state, and the opinion is gaining ground that Johnson county will not prose- oute. Two important reasons strengthen vhis [belief. In tho first placo the prisonors re- igara a trial at Choyenne as equivalent to ac- quittal. It is the residenco of Governor Bar- fber, whose friendship for the cattlemen was (eonspicuous throughout the trouble. It is the theadquarters of the State Live Stock com- ission, composed largely of men interosted n the 'acquittal of the raiders, It is by arge odds the most friendiy point that could be choson to_insure the escape of the raiders from punishment. i With the two leading witnesses of the murder of Campion and Ray spirited away, with the trial hela in & community friendiy 1o the prisoner and with & scant treasury back of the prosecution, it is more than probablo that Johnson county will nolle the cases rather than pilo up a huge bill of ex- i in whut is now regarded as u forlorn ope. L ue last chapter of the rustler war is rap- 1dly drawing to a close. Senator Warren and Irrigation. Senator Warren of Wyoming, chairmen of tho sensto committee on irrigation, deliv- #red u strong speech on the subjoct of irriga- Hon in the senato last Thursday. He -is the author of the pending bill respective siates and torritories all arid Jands within their borders, subject to cor- tain conditions regarding settlewent, sale and warter rights, Senator Warren argued in bohulf of the value of irrigation as an aid to agriculture and its special importance to the United States; of the necessity of giving “ merious and helpful consideration to the sub- ject of improving our arid lands without delay, He cluimed the msothod which he proposes of reclaiming lands by ceding them tothe states uuder proper restrictions is fe and equitable and will bring about the reclamation of the largest possible area in the most speedy and economical way. In ordor to secure increased irrigation and re- clamation it will be necessary to preserve the forest areas of the mountains, which not only promoto rain but hold back snow so that the latter is allowea to melt gradual 10 construct immense storage reservoirs and innumeranle canals, and in somo places ar- tesian wells. ‘While Senator Warren admits the scheme of irrigation will requirean enormous ex- rndllurs, he points out that river aud har- or bills'the last ten years have appro- priated in round numoers §100,000,000--not i cent of which has been expended for the direct benefit of the arid states. He be- lieves it would not be unreasonable, there- foro, tousk an amendment to the next river @nd harbor bill, appropriuting $15,000,000 or 120,000,000 per annuw for the construction of reservoirs, Hosaid with irrigation the 100,000,000 acres of irrigable land 1n the arid rogion of the United States would furnish bomes for 20,000,000 families, or, in fact, & groater population than the country 'mow contains. Even now the agere- gate annual value of the gold, silver, lead ‘copper. horses, cattle, sheep and wool moved out of the arid region is not far from $200,- 000,000, Over one quarter of the world’s supply of gold. lead and_copper and 40 per ‘cent of the world’s supply of silver are pro- duced within its liits. This is accom- Plished despite the fact that sutsistence for 2he miners has to be vransported great dis- tances. The development of this country, if crops could be raised within its borders, ‘would be phenomenal, while the wool erop, already enormous, would be increased to & ut which would make the 1mportation of forelgn wool almost, If not guite, unneces- ary. Speaking of the senator's esrly life Kat Flold writes: ‘Senator Warren, whose eftigy lynched in Cheyenne because he voted against the Stewart silver oill, from which his amenament confining the coinage to American silver had been stricken, is a self-made man from tho very foundation, His boyhood is a story of hard work; and chapters of 1t inciude stolen ocundles by which 10 read papers that he had walked ten miles to borrow, & father who was deter- mined -he shouldu't graufy his desire to read or learn, and a mother who sympathized s mothers usually do with her son’s inclina- tions. Finally, when he did get a chauce to go to the academy, the first year wheu exumination day came around Warren had Do clothes to wear except such as even tebes couldn’t mend. The boys declared 0 couldn’t pass and the pedagorue found occasion to publicly aeny this to the audi- ence und commend Warren's progresa. Tho llr-}nlnunuy the senator earned is still in his business. It was 83, tho gain made from stubborn potato lot that War plowed and plented himself. This money his father borrawed and allowed him 1nterest on it When the government issued bonds Warren put that and more that he haa saved into 5 per conts. It has been trausterred from one investment 1o another several times, but Warren still kuows where the § is.” Trouble Ahead for Squatters, Hal J. Cole, Indian agent of the Colville rescrvation, state of Washington, bas re- celved authority from the Indian department, Washington, to call upon United States troops for assistance to remove the white sottiers who have entered the Colville roser- vation contrary to law. Squatters have no right there, as tho reservation has not yet been oponed up for settlement, As soon as the Fort Spokane troops, now at Caur d'Aleve, aro ovailable for the purpose they will bo sent into the reservation and the set- Uers will be driven out. Two compauies of Infantry will ve aetailed for this duty, no cavalry being available. A large number of sottiers and vrospecturs have goue into tho forbiuden resorvation and it s foared trouvle will ensue when tLe soldiers come to drive them out, as numerous valuable prospects have been located by the squatters and they will endeavor to bold them if possible. Crowds of prospectors ave flocking to the reservation from the Carur d’Alene, Marcus, Kottle Falls, Okanogan and other camps. The prairie and hillsides are dotted with tents &ud many old-time prospectors have no protection from the elemeuts but the lux- uriant bunch grass, which grows to a great belgnt in this couniry, A Skin Gume. J. E. Blake, of Counctl Bluffs, Denver and Butte, was plaiotif and victor in & sult @ecided v Butte & few days ugo. Some yoars ago Blake organized and incorporated &t Council Bluffs the Continental Oil and “'Trausportation comoany, und in 1883 ostab- lished stations at Dillon and Butte, Mont. E. Rickards, the present licutenant gov- nor of the stato, was appointed agent at Butte. In 1884 Binke induced Rickards 1o purehase the Mountuna business of the company, which ne &id, miving notes %0 the' amount of 16,300, payable ot different Lumes within six | yoars. Qne of the provisions ard agree- yents of was that the oil company should never start an opposition business in ceding to the [ the state, The company was a branch of the Standard Oll _company and_owned the greater part of the stock. Within a year after selling out to Mr. Riokards Mr., Blak organized a nsw company and oalled it th Continental Ol company, differing in narm from Mr. Rickards' company only in the omission of the word “transportation,” and established n station at Butte and opened competition with Rickards. In the new com- pany Biake owned 33 per cent of the stock and the Standard Oil company the re- mainder. The new eompany cut the price of oll 80 low that there was a clear loss on the sale of every gallon. The natural result was that Mr. Rickards was frozen out and the field was loft to the Standard Oil company, and Rickards had the big debt, inourred by the first purchase, on his hands ana ocould not pay it, and also refused to do so beoause, as he alloged, the agreement had been broken by the company. Suit lorglymenl followed, resulting in a victory for Blake. Rickards’ counter claim for damages ‘vas disallowed. The Desert May Yet Bloom, When the water began to rocede in the Salton lake end 1n the streams which fed it from the Colorado, superficial observers de- olared that the overflow of 1802 was going to be a repetition of the overflow of 1852, and that in a few years no traces of 1t would re- main. But it seems to the San Francisco Examiner that they forgot that the applica- tion of water to sand provokes vegetation. All through the district which was over- flowed a year ago, and 18 now 1n lai part dry, plants have sprung up where plant lifo never existed within the historical period, #nd the dosert 1s gridironed with strings of bushes and grass. From theso plants moist. ure will ovaporate and return to tho earth in the shape of rain, extending the arable area. Nature's impulse is to turn the face of tho earth to account. When it falls to do so it is hindered by insuperablo obstacles. In a do: ert where there is neither soil nor moisture it is difficuir for anything to grow, but apply a little water to the sand and seeds nnrrrud by tho wind will germinate, plants will flour- ish, and dying leave behind them decayed vegetable matter which will feea thewr prog- eny. Water iy the besi of all fertilizers, though it has never veen patented. Down in Merced the ingeuious nurserymen iocated on sand plains on which it was difficult to find a speck of loam or aumus or alluvium: they irrigatea the sand liberally, and now there 1is hardly a plant in tne herbarium which they do not grow successfully, Another thing. Whatever has been since the world took its present shupe muy be again, Time was when the Colorado desert contained a chain of lakes surrounded by for- ests. We can see the beach line of the lak: and the trunks of the blasted trces. By what convulsion of nature in that volcanio country these lnkes were cut off from their sources and evaporated sclence has not formulated a conjecture, but it is rash to conclude that the old sources will never bo reopened and thoe lakes restored. Had the poople of southern California_displayed en- ergy last year the river mouth at Algodones would have been kept open and a steady flow of water secured throughout the spring and sumnier seasons, Some day thal may be done. ¢ the Park, Railroad talk usurps tho place of catile war gossip 1n Johuson couuty, Wyoming. The advance of the Burlington toward Buf- falo astonishes the residents, but their aston- 1shment is fringed with joyous enthusiasta. Whereat the peoplo's voice waxethhigh and shrill, shouting, *‘Ob, the glory of it.” Here is n sample of the boom-de-ay: “Now that it is absolutely sottled that the Burlington raflroad will build its main line through Buf- falo and tap the fertile Norwood and Big Horn valleys of the Basin, openiug a direct route to the National park und an almost airline from this city to the Pacific ocean— reducing the shortest present transconti- nental line by 850 miles—the people of John- son county have good reason to rejoice and be oxceeding glad. 10, the glory of being an elcotric-light lit city, with a future of golden promise and the assurance of a boom. Residents of the Hartville mining district and of the Platte valley from Hartville east aro firmly convinced thav the Burlington system will be the first to give them railway communication with the outside worla. The roud surveyed a route from Aliiauce west in 1857, and the line into ocentral Wyoming would doubtless have followed had it not been for the paraiyzing effects of the big strike. But 100 miles of road are necessary to tap the Hartville iron and copper district, with an easy coantry to bulld through and one which would contribute large shipments of mineral, stock and agricultural products all along its route. Will the Mountaln Tumble? Golden, a suburb of Denver, contalning 8,000 people, is in danger of being swept away by a great landsliae, Thne Table mountain, directly east of it, is formed of two strata, the upper one of earth and gran- iteand the lower of soapstone. This 18 where the danger lies, T'he Church irrigat- ing ditch comes around the hill oo aline with the soapstone, and the water 1or years has been king into it, softening it, and now the vast mass is gradually alipping westward toward Clear creek and is likely to go avany moment, ‘The town lies beneath the mountain 1,000 feet on a steep hillside, and once started the destruction would be awful, for over a mile of earth and rock would be m motion. ‘The Union Pacifio officials say the matter bas become a serious affair with them, for although they aro on the opposite side of the cauon the mass would surely reach that far and bury their tracks under 500 feet or more ot debris, The State School of Mines and other valuable property are located directly under tbis mountain. Tne situation is re- garded as ons of the gravest character and efforts will be made to have the irrigation aiten either piped or abacdoned. A Novel Rallroad Track. The Sigle Track Saddle Truck Rallroad company, incorporated in Portland, last spring, have the peculiar locomotive required for their road about completed aud will be enabled 1o give thewr schemoa practical test within thirty days. The roadbed is of stout timber supported oo A-shaped braces, like a loug low roof. The driving wheel is in the conter of the locomotive and is of largs size, as it practically supports the whole engine, has grea traciion, and the inventor expects 10 attain & speed of 100 wiles un hour. The locomotive fits over the track like a saddle, and on each side are the boller and machinery to balance, Guide trucks run along the side of the A frames, and wheels on each side, set at an angle, rest on theso to prevent the locomotive from tpping when at rest. It is expected, when in motion, that the momentum will preserve theequilibrium, A section of road 1s to be built in the suburbs for a trial trip.

One of the boys was insta: killed and the other was seriously injured.
