e R 8 GOOD WORK FOR IRRIGATION Delegates Unanimons that the Omaha Con- vention Will Produce Good Results, ADOPTED RESOLUTIONS YESTERDAY iring Natlonal Legislation for t of Trrigation—Testing Well Methods — with Delegates. Tlans for & the Advan: of Artesin Talks The second day's session of the Interstate Irrigation congress was called to order at 9 o'clock yesterday morning. President Moses occupled the chair. Upon motion of Mi 8immons the convention went Into executive sesslon to take action upon the report of the committeo on resolutions, formulated Wednes day evening and published in The Beo yes- terday morning. The committee report was signed by J. L. Bristow of Kansas, ch ter of Colorado, secri ry; B. A. McAllister and Major Clarkson of Nebraska, Ira C. Hub bell of Missouri, A. A. Fassett of South Da- kota, Colonel Butler of Montana, 8. M. K linols, F. BE. Warren of Wyoming nd clan Wells of lowa Some of the delegates wapted encourage- ment of the “artesian well method' inserted hich caused consid, ble discussion. Others ed as to the plan for appointing a lobby to Washington in behalf of irrigation lation. After an hour's debate on these #ubjects 1t was decided to defer final action on the committee report until 2 o'clock In the afternoon lately after the executive session terminated Colonel €. 8, ¢ e of Omaha occupied the attention of the congress with an address on “The Duty of the Cities of the Plains in the Development of Irrigation.” Charles A. Gregory of New York delivered a splendid address upon the subject of “Irri- gation and Continental Development,” in which he defined the word irrrigation in all its phases. Scientifie application of water to land as exhaustively reviewed, in which he referred to it as an art which required diligence to learn Ti speaker could not handle the subject as exhaustively as he desired in the time allotted, but asked “leave to print” in the official proceedings. Major Clarkson, in behalf of the executiv cominittee, extended an invitation to the delegates to visit the packing houses at South Omaha at 12 o'clock, which was ac- cepted with thanks. At this juncture Mr. Erastus A. Benson of Omaha was called to the cf r for the balance of the morning session. RESOLUTIONS OF Upon motion of Hon. V. Clement of Wichita, the following spec olutions of t nks were unanimously adopted: Resolved, That we hereby tender to the city of Omaha onr sincere thanks for the cordial reception we have received at the hands of the citizens of Omaha. We desire to express our appreciation of the Commer- cial club, and our admiration of the city of Omaha. We have viewed Omaha with won- der, the magnificence and grandeur of her stafely buildings, the extent and perfec- tion of her rallway systems, the vastness of her trade and manufacturing industries, the enterprise and progressive spirit of her people. Resolved, Wo especially appreciate the enterprise and liberality of the public pre of the city. We recognize in the city of Omalia a mighty power in the development of the grand cvilization of the west, and our earnest wishes are for her greatest prosperity In the future and that she may fully accomplish the great work she has already begun. An address on “Pumping Machinery by Irrigation” by Ira C. Hubbell of Kansas City, was listened to with evident intere The convention then took a recess until 2 o'clock, the delegates proceeding in a body to the depot, where they took a train for South Omala. After an interesting inspec- tion of the packing house industry they re- turned to the convention hall and went into executive session to take action on the re- port of the committee on resolutions. COMMITTER'S REPORT ADOPTED, The afternoon session of the convention was called to order at 2:30. After some dis- cussion the repori of the committee on resolutions, as previously published in The Bee, was adopted. Elwood Mead, state engineer of Wyoming, then delivered an address on the “Progress of Irrigation in Wyoming,” in which he re- ewed the gratifying results of irrigation and the excellence of the water laws of the ftate, Colonel Hogeland of Lincoln completed the afternoon session with a talk upon the cheapest plans for utilizing the rivers, creeks and sheet waters of Nebraska, which com- manded general attention. Colonel Hoge- land spoke, In part, as follows: ““The convention has not met to consider the question as to whether the soil of this state Is less fertile than it was the day that it was broken by the first farmer who lo- cated on it, but to consider the subject of a gradual decrease in the rainfall, especially over the western part of the state, then to suggest the most available methods for get- ting at and placing upon the soil the neces- sary supply of water us a substitute for the rainfall. I have for several years past been engaged in experimenting with a series of pumps and water elevators, efficlent and simple in construction, and in this matter I will say to the convention that I have succeeded beyond my own expectation. HOW THEY WORK. “The first of these pumps I use is almost without limit in handling water from ten gallons up to one ton per second, and operates on an incline of forty-five degrees. The other one is a single chain pump or elevator and operates in a vertical position. Both had been tested. The one working vertically for rivers, wells, creeks, draws and lakes can be furnished to any farmer or gardener at less cost than an ordinary wind mill, including the power to operate it. 1 have also recently experimented with an inclined well or tunnel for reaching the sheet waters of the state and have given considerable time to the investigation of the utilization of our sheet waters for irrigation. To convince this convention that my theory 18 not a visionary one, I will ask my hearers to go with me to the Antelope well or pumping sation on N and Twenty-sixth streets at Lincoln, and from which the city of Lincoln receives its drinking water. I made a personal examination of that well and learned from the superintendent the following facts: The well proper is forty- five feet deep, with a diameter of thiriy feet, and is walled with brick, From the bottom of this well the engjneer drove five five-inch drain pipes seventy feet into what we call sheet water, but which is in fact artesian, as the wa pours over the tops of these pipes like the g out of a large umbrella, and the pumps which are stationed at the bottom of the well raise to the stand pipes 1,250,000 gallons of water every twenty-four hours. the pu L ceaso operation for a fow hours this body of water rises to within' eight feet of tho surface of the ground. “Now this is a fair great body of sheet water underlying the magnificent stretch of fertile prairle lands traversed by the railroads of the state along the divide "through central Nebraska and Colorado to Denver, and If wells of the capacity of the one referred to can be sunk along these rallroads at intervals of a few miles, say to the depth of thirty or forty feet, and from that depth drive down draln pipes to the body of sheet water, the farmers along the route are sfire of get(ing a supply of water for Irrigation purposes and they are certain of getting a flow of water that will n most cases come to within ten or twenty feet of the surface of the ground, PLATTE RIVER WATER SUPPLY. Referring to the probable water supply In the Platte river bed for irrigation purposes by means of pumping well water, Mr. Hoge- land quoted Chief Engineer Nettleton as an eminent authority for the following “This estimate Is verified by a deep exca- vation made on the South Platte river twenty-five miles southwest of Denver, where the company has put in a subconduct near the bed of the river, which is elghteen foet below the water line. In the 700 feet of this conduct there is obtained 9,010,000 gallons each twenty-four hours, or at the rate of 163 cubic feet per second for a mlle 9§ stch conduct, Therefore, by means of a centrifugal sand pump, we 'have excavated what may bo called a gathering well about A% (958 long and elght feet deop (below the man;: L. G. Carpen- THANKS, sample of the great river) inch centrifugal pumps fo lift the of this well into the canal.”” Reference was also made to the following paragraph from the final geological reports of the underflow Investigation made by Prof. Robert Hay, F. G. 8. A., to the secr tary of agriculture, 1802 “The streams thus becoming entangled In thé silt of their own valleys are indeed lost to view, but they are not wiiolly lost They g0 to feed the underflow. No physical feature of the great plains fs more impressivo, when once fully realized, than the fact that a mighty Invisible river ac- companies each visible one, The under- flow s vastly broader and deeper than the visible river and s always there, while the river in sight may cease to flow. The only point in which the river excels s velocity. The percolation of water through silt is very slow as compared with channel veloelties and this limits the volume which may be developed by subflow ditches or pumping. ~ Where the silt is very porous, by reason of its coarseness or the form of its particles, and at the same time the water i under considerable pressure, the velocity of percolation may approach that of free flowing streams. In some places in the valley of the Platte so coplous is the underflow that when it fs tapped at the distance of several miles from the channel it responds to powerful pumps as freely as it the supply were drawn from a eubter- anean lake." he convention adjourned at 5 o'clock to meet immediately after supper and hold a farewell session at the Commercial club, and have placed {wo powerful fitteen water out IRRIGATION INTERVIEWS, with Delegates Upon a Subject of Genernl Western I t Donald W. Campbell of Denver—At the commencement of the panic a great num ber of irrigation enterprises had been started and surveys made, but the financial set many projected enterpris Talks depression up: The signs now point to a revival of irrig; tion work, though I do not look for the same activity as existed in 1892 for several on I8 the redemption of the tt Dougherty of Ogalalla—In our valley we have got the water flow in sufficlent quantity to irrig he entire Platte valley from the Wyoming line to the function of the South Platte near North Platte. Thero are now in Scotts Bluft county 450 miles of Irrigating ditches and in Cheyenne county there are over 200 miles of ditches. The test has proved marvelous. The Belmont ditch, over twenty miles in length, frri- gates over 15,000 acres and has always proved successful since the day It was placed in operation. Mayor Dillon of Sheridan, Wyo.—What better proof does any one want that will silence skeptics than the fact that Sheri- dan wheat raised under irrigation ditches took first premium at the World’s fair over all competitors? Irrigation is a great suc- cess In Wyoming and we have set a goc pace. L. J. Simmons of Harrison, President of the Northwestern Nebraska Irrigation Asso- ciation—Wherever irrigation has been tried in our county it has increased the product. A man who puts even few acres under ditch is sure of a living. One friend of mine who has three acres under ditch got a yield of $500 an acre last year. This was on the Intensive farming plan. There 15 a controvi now in our county ovet the utility of creek waters for domectic and irrigatien purposes and an important case is in court as a result of it. high table lands we must look to water and must have government ance as well as laws that will allow v take water from the streams across the Wyoming line into Nebraska. There will be no occasion of western counties of Ne- braska asking for annexation to Wyoming in order “to get the benefit of Wyoming water laws {f eastern Nebraska will only co-operate with us for relief. Charles J.-Grable of Crawford, Neb.—I am building a diteh fourteen miles long near Edgemont, ending in a water power at Edgemont with a seventy-two-foot fall. It will frrigate 7,000 acres when complcted, which will be about June 1, as tife work is half domploted. I am a great believer in irrigation. I am also projecting a ditch be- tween Crawford and Chadron, which will be twenty-six miles long wien completed. There will be fifteen reservoirs in that distance. We require legislation before we can secure use of water to run this successfully and we will move on Lincoln next winter. St. Cliir O'Malley of Buffalo, \Wyo.— Wyoming is all right on frrigation and her agricultural products prove it. D. H. Stearns of Portland—I live in an irrigation country, and though Oregon has forty inches of average rainfall per annum it comes in the winter, when it is of no pres- ent use and must be stored in the soil until summer, when it is needed. That is practi- cal, natural irrigation, What farmers want are good crops every year. The question of cconomy in irrigetion is the main one. Many of the farm owners in Kansas and Nebrask have their own water shed areas and lower levels that may be irrigated with storm waters. All that is necessary Is to run a “stop” around the head plans near a ‘“‘draw’ which carries away u considerable quantity of storm water, being careful not ‘10 enclose the channel of the draw, and then run a short diteh from the draw (o the upper side of the field to be ated. That side will need no “stop,” unless therc is a higher level to be covered. Then watch that the water does not rise high enough to overflow and break the stop before it is turned back into its natural channel. I have seen thousands of places in the Platte, Loup and Elkhorn val- leys where acres could be irrigated fully for single crops in this way at an expense of 10 cents per acre. With the vines in Nebraska and the amount of storm water they could carry off, there is no necessity for reservoirs but the soil. Intensi farming is well enough for the man who seeks investment of capital where it will do the most good for future generations, but it is not the idea that will raise the largest crop for the least money. I speak from the observations of twenty years. Charles 'A. Gregory of New York—If it were not for the fact that irrigation acre- age is generally exaggerated by enthusius- tic projectors, capital would be less timid. It 18 best to always state in a conservative way just the number of acres under ditch. Most people interested, however, overstate the acreage to attract capital, and the re- sult is that the returns at Washington are subject to clo gerutin from capitalists who are aware of this fact. It enlarges the appearance of the enterprise, and a man may lie successfully once, but it proves a boomerang for other enterprises of this kind if capital is de ved. I think frriga- tion is a great thing, and there is no doubt but what private capital will readily come to the front if congress gives irrigation proper investigation and reports favorably thereon . L. King of Hitehcock county, The Culbertson irrigation canal,” recently bullt from Palisade to Culbertson, will be twenty-seven miles in length when the ex- tension to Black Wood creek is completed. It irrigates 86,000 acres and has a flow of 300 cubic feet per second. It has ten flumes, of which one is a quarter of mile in length. These flumes are seventy-elght feet high. The canal works successfully Major Powell of Washington—This subject is of great importance to the future of Omaha, which will become the Gate City of redeemed arid America It will develop your commerce and industric This state has four sources of irrigation, namely the sand reservolr, pump well, storm water reservoir and streams. 1t is well equipped for irrigating purposes. Wyoming has set a good example on water'laws, which should be adopted by Nebraska. Wyoming is far ahead of all other states in this incompara- ble method of water rights, and one of the best features is its enactment of laws gov- erning water rights and the administrative power vested in a state board and state engineer, The latter plan has saved the state milllons of dollars worth of litigation. In other states where this plan fs not in vogue the lawyers et the benefit Instead of the farm What Nebraska wants is a similar system to prevent Interference of water rights, Judge Bmery of Lawrence—The Saxon race has hitherto conquered racos; but it has, in all its history, never undertaken to conquer a desert. The task with us Is now to reclaim an arld country half as large, if we exclude Alaska, as the whole union.” We have got to do this job, whether we will or no. The public domain which s fit fo make farms out of is gone. The condition we now face, as a people, will tax our best and our highest qualities. If we set about the honest und economic reclamation of all this region lying west of us we shall certainly succeed, bocause our kind of Riogd haa all alovg Rugrssdss Neb — Anglo- other THE ().\IAH;\ DAILY B II.E' l"RID AY, MARCH 23, 1891, But much money has alreads been lost in unwise and ill-considered irrigation schemes and enterprises. We have today as many dry ditches as wet ditches; that is, half our frrigation dams, reservoirs and all that have proved fat failures. Bonds and watered stocks have been floated on the market only to result in great loss of money and in fat fees for the lawyers. We must stop all this kind of thing and proceed, from now on, intelligently and honestly We need an irrigation sur vey to bo made by the government, and this want Is imperative. Then we need a wise code of laws to protect the farmer after h gets his start and in getting his start. This fs a work of time. But my own faith is unshaken in the near triumph of irrigation, because back of the whole en- torpriso stands the best blooded people of the world. Our young men need: America to build homes in and they shall have it, bacause the fates will it. Our highest civili- zatfon, the very flower of all civilizations, is yet to be found in arid America and on the Pacific slope. There was a unanimity of opinfon among the delegates that the Omaha convention would be productive of go “Omaha was a great city Artesiun Wells. backed by the insisted on Irrigation by Mr. Carnalian of Colorado, delogation from Wyoming, following being Incorporated in the resolu- tions to be adopted by the convention: Resolved, T the government should determine by actual tests whether or ne artesian water can be obtained upon the great plains, and if o, to what extent. After considerable discussion the men from the west triumphed and the convention rati- fled their request. It was declded to have county and state organizations act as com- mittees to punch up the various congre #lonal .delegations and agitate irrigation legislation now pending in congress. A copy of the resolution was ordered sent to the secretary of the interior and congressional delegations of the states interested. Nebraska Delegntes. The Nebraska delegates to the Irrigation convention held an informal meeting at the Commercial club rooms last evening, at which several brief addresses were made and irrigation discussed. 1. N.

Most of the delegates to the convention h left for their re- spective homes, but some of the delegates will remain in the city until Major Powell returned to Washington-y day afternoon. —_——— Division 7 A, 0.

Those who recall the well known painting by Emmanuel Leutze, which pictures a scene in the Mexican of which General—then Lieutenant Grant was the hero, will be somewhat disappointed at a reproduction of a photograph of that time. It shows Lieutenant Grant in the ill-fitting and. ab- surdly boyish appearing clothes peculiar to the old service. The beardless young officer stands with one arm thrown over the neck of a diminu- tive horse. Alongside stands General Alex- ander Hays, also a Mexican warrior, holding another horse by the bridle. His more manly figure Is also clothed in queerly made garments, Lieutenant Grant wears one of the old- style Sanford & Merton overhunging flat cloth caps with a limp leather visor. A thick ‘wisp of hair falls untidily over the right ear. A broad white starched collar droops over a high stock of patent leather. A single row of brass eagla buttons runs from mneck to waist of a tight-chested, bell- skirted frock coat. A broad light stripe runs down the side of the trousers leg. A small likeness copled from one worn by Mrs. Grant on a wristlet is also given in the same work. The original was made shortly before Grant’s resignation from the army prior to the civil war, and represents him as a smooth but stern-faced young captain. A third portrait of General Grant is from a photograph taken in 1861 Grant was then a brigadier, and had begun to be talked about. He sits with both hands clasping his sword, which rests across his lap. On his head is one of the large, ungainly, soft slouch hats then fashionable in army circles. One side of the brim is caught up to the crown by a rosette. The beard is long and heavy and the face wears an air of settled purpose. . There are several other portraits of the old commander in the work, and old soldiers who sexved under him express unbounded satistaction in studying these vivid glimpses of their dead leader. The pictures are ab- solutely faithful to the originals, as is the case with all work bearing the Century im- print The now popular edition of “The Century War Book,” in which the above-mentioned pictures are presented among 900 oth equally as interesting alike to veterans and readers of history, is now being issued by The Bee in twenty ports, one part to be dis- tributed each week.
