ang FAltUING BY EI lBe ICIIY. Moderu Methods to be Applied to 'exas ice Fields. C Twenty five thousand acres of rice land irrigated by wells operated by electricity from a central power-house; fret power and free seed for tenants, tenants paying one half the crop to the land owners, and sending the tenants' share of the crop to the cen tral mill to be milled at current rates; light to be furnished at nominal cost by the centra power-house; no farm of less than 200 acres, and no en ants who have not proved thems 'es capable farmers; tenants to have the privilege of placing their half of their crops in the hands of the mill's marketing agent. * The project is that of C. W. Hahl, of Houston, Texas, and is outlined as follows in the New Orleans Times Democrat: "Canal irrigation is dependent upon surface water supply, which is subject to drouth. In such times, if the water in the canal be lr,or the supply from the canal is fed or lim ited, the farmers further from the pumping plant do not fare as well as those nearer the plant. "Throughout the 25,000 acre tract owned by the corporation, test wells. at frequent intervals of distance have proved the'existence of a water sup ply which gives indications of being: certain and inexhaustible. The sup ply is relatively aear the surface, and rises in the wells to within about ten feet of the surface urider normal con ditions, and it is presumed that even: in severe drounth the subsurface pres sure will maintain the water in the wells at a depth but a few feet greater than normal. "The tenants must supply their own farming implements, stock, etc. The oor oration will furnish , the ower fot e Punps, the connect ions may be made to operate the pump, or pumps on each farm by'either the tenant or by the powerhouse on ap plication of the tenant. "It is probabie that the power-j house will also supply electric lights for all tenants who want such lights,: the tenants paying a nominal price. * Light can be furnished at small ad ditional cost to the power house, and the corporation will rely for its prof its on its 50 per cent. -of each tenant's production and the profit at current * rates of milling all the tenants' share * of the aggregat'e crop. "The project is co operative, but not beneficent, and no 1and will be let to any tenant who is not finan cially and otherwise capable of op e rating a 200 acre farm. The pres ent plan is tolet farms of from 200 to 300 acres. "'The power house will supply pow. * er for The mill as well -as the farms. "Professor Knapp recently pointed out that the obstacle in the way of extension of the rice growing indus try was the difficulty of guarantee * ing an adequate irrigation supply from the surface streams,' said Mr. Hahl. 'We have solved this prob lem. Subsurface water rising to within a few feet of the surface, electric power to lift it; institutes .were held and were attended by over half a million farmers. The insti tates were held in forty three States and Territories. During the last three years the progress has been if anything greater than at any pre vious time, though the exact figures are not yet collated. It is safe to say that now in this country over $200,000 is being sent annually for farmers' institutes. PLaIN TALK BY A PUBLIo OFFICER. CommisSioner Ware a rerror to shyster Pension Attorneys. [New York Evening Post.] If the syster attorneys who are en gaged in fraudulen' pension practice * fancied they were making any gain in exchanging Evans for Ware in the commissionership they have probably awakened from the delusive dream before this. Mr. Ware has the 1 credit for more "bluff and hearty''" ways than his predecessor, but he is < in no sense behind him in vigor ofi speech. Some of his expletives would hardly answer in a metropolilan E drawing room. They slip out withI such ease when his indignation is excited, however, that to mos' ears E they seem mPrely to add spice to his f coimunaries The other day a v Michigan law) er, who had bee:n or ' dered :. show ceuse why be shoulId J ivor be disbarred for ma practices in S th.- department, came on to plead his f ase in nerson. The commissioner, ave the fellow a bearing in his pri. ate office. Then he was heard to < ay, as he opened the door at the I lose of the conversation: q "No, you've been robbing the sol iers. I've had all I want of you. iow, you had better go." With this he emerged from the )rivate office and seated himself at kis desk in the ante room, where he egan to address his attention to eme accumulated mail. The attor iey followed him, apparently much restfallen, and, approaching him nee more, set up a low, whining >rotest: "Mr. Commissioner, I think you're iardly fair. I think-" He got no further. Mr. Ware, who iad whirled around in his chair and isen, and was confronting him with he face of a thunder-cloud, inter upted him with: "And I'l tell you wlt I think! I hink you are a - thief, and ought o be in prison. I told you to go. Tow get out!" And he seized the astounded lawyer y the arm and thrust him into the orridor. Another specimen of the same 3ass, a gray-haired old scamp, who had long been disbarred, but had 3ontrived to keep up his trade by working through other lawyers not yet under the ban, came on to see whether he could not make his way back into good standing. He, too, was granted a private interview and was deceived by his own glib speech into imagining that he had made a pretty fair impression. When they were about to part the lawyer paused, waiting for a last word from the com Dissioner, who seemed to be in a brown study: Presently Mr. Ware poke: "I'll think your case over," said he. The attorney bowed, all smiles, but the oommissioner went on with Dut changing his tone: "I'll think it over. You are one f! those - reprobates who bring re proach on the good name of the old soldjer. I don't know yet just what P'1l do in your case. I'm not quite sure whether I ought not to put you into the penitentiary. As it looks to me now, I'm inclined to think I will. Yes, fli think it over."' COLUMBIA TO ORGIErOWN. Te Boat Inoe Wi Be in Op' ration by January 1 -Two Boatu Will be Brought to the Congsree Seady for Bumines at Once. [ Cola. Cor. News and Courier.] It is announced that the proposed boat line between Columbia and Georgetown, on the Congaree River, will be in operation by January 1. The public had about lost sight of this enterprise from the fact that the promoters have been saying little about it, but they have been quietly at work consideriag whether it would be better to build two boats, the number to be operated, or to pur base them already built. Col. John 0. Haskell is in New York and he will purchase two boats, which will be brought here ready for business at once. The company was in cor responence with boat builders of Charleston, Savannah and Norfolk before deciding to buy in New York. There has been some doubt as to whether the line will pay, but one of the stockholders said this morning that three merchants who are also tockholders will give the line their business, and that will be snfficie'nt to make the enterprise a paying one if nobody else patronizes it, which ertainly will not be the case. The positive announcement that the line ill be in operation by January is the most important facts that will interest citizens just now. ASNINITY SUPREME. rhe zecrabI.. Taste or a Memphia News* pp-r and,A ffronlt to the Presidet:t. [Charlotte Observer.] There is an unfortunate situation u Memphis, Tenn. Gen. Luke E. Wright, of that city, a member of he Philippine commission, is coming iome soon and a banquet in his bon r has been arranged. To this ban jet President Roosevelt bas been aivited and on account of this The scimitar newspaper cries alond. It ys that "social equality with Mr. oosevelt means recognition of his videly annonneed doctrine of social gcnaliy" and that there is no d:f. erence in sitting down ait the table with a neigro and withi a whit. man vno bas satt at the table with oue. nere~ is a good deal more of this ort of asiui[ity, eudin.g with the ollowig: "When Mr. Ro.savalt cnma8 to demphis he should be properly re eived by the mayor and members of he city council. The police should ,scort him through the streets and >ur superb fire department might rive a special display in his honor. [t would not be out of place to erect kn arch for him to drive nnder on iis way from the railway station, md if he comes after dark, a respect al amount of red fire, some music, i job lot of flags and things might )e arranged to greet and gladden his )yes. But a banquet. Excuse us, please." All this is an affront to the Pres ident and in execrable taste besides. 'he folly of President Roosevelt ir inviting Booker Washington to lunel with him is only surpassed by thf Folly of tho proposition that on ac. -ount of this he is not fit for whit( people to associate with and thal sch association is an endorsement ol the White House luncheon incident rhe blood of the people of Charles ton is probably as blue as that ol the people of Memphis, and thi Oharlebtonians did not fail to ban quet Mr. Roosevelt last April and t< associate with him on a basis of per feet equality.
