WASHINGTON, D. C. D. — One of our ambitious schemes conceived by the governor capitalist, now or ever, is an engineering foot by which it may be down the surface of the reservoir permently twenty to forty feet, and to co great flow of the Colorado river as water from the Arizona and california utilizes the water for irrigating vast areas of desert, arid and semi-arid lands, and thousands acres of new land by scientific guidance of the stream so that it will be developed for water or sediment or soil mining by man and like man, it will be vast electrical power. Colorado has never been considered a stream whose waters could be utilized to a great extent for irrigation, but it has been used for irrigation for months in a careful reconnaissance of the situation, presents a plan of starting prairie and desert agriculture, known hydrographers of the United States are called chief hydrographer of the isthman canal commission. in speaking of great Colorado river is the largest stream both in drainage area and in pervious surface. The greatest Colorado river has as yet been utilized for irrigation. Through most of the country, the bottom of profound canyons from which it is fed has been utilized for lands. if its water could be fully utilized, it would irrigate vast areas of rich land. Measurements made in Arizona show that a 10-foot cubic foot as low as 3,000 cubic feet per second. Its maximum discharge is unknown, but the maximum cubic feet per second or the maximum amount measured by the billion gallon per minute, enough to water an acre, one foot deep in twenty-four acres. ALLEY OF THE LOWER COLORADO FLOOD PLAINS THAT ALLEY OF THE LOWER COLORADO RIVER AT LOW WATER, SHOWING FLOOD PLAINS THAT CAN BE RECL AIMED. THE CITY OF NEW YORK IRRIGATED ORANGE GROVE, AZUSA. CALIF. An river is navigated for several hundred miles from its mouth to several hundred miles in distance, owing to the shallow, changeable channel, that wagon transportation, and the times of high water the current is very swift. The development of several reservoirs in which the tapped river at gate 300,000 acres, and raised in which the tapped river at capacity of 200,000, would each be provided with a dammed transportation. Mr. Davis believes that his proposed plan of storage reservoirs will solve both the navigation and mining. A Sub-Tropic Climate. All the land that can be irrigated from the lower Colorado may be regarded as the growing season for most products continues the year round, the requirements are lower in summer than in the summer season those of the winter. It is believed that with proper regulation the Colorado river will be able to supply water for industrial use, varying from 10,000 cubic feet per second in winter to 20,000 cubic feet per second in spring and allowing the great floods of wet years to sween to the sea as at preset temperatures to irrigate two million acres of land. A considerable portion of the valleys of the lower Rockies contain reservoirs food and water which are subject to occa- cions, munitions and unsuitable for cultivation. This large acreage it is proposed to reclaim by impounding upon them the all yearly annually passes down the Colorado River. A Chun of Great Reservoirs. Mr. Shovelton by impounding upon a series of reservoirs on the Colorado river by the construction of dams where possible reservoirs is large. The tail or the river is so slight that reservoirs of enormous capacity may be construc- tured in the all yearly dam of unappreciable height. At any time, by opening the sluicesway of the reservoirs the current of the river will quickly out the canister through the deposited sediment. With this exception can reservoir be used for storage or as a wetment. When this occurs it is proposed to draw down the surface of the reservoir permeable all of the reservoir site, except the river channel into irrigated farming land, and, if necessary, construct another reservoir for storage purposes higher up on the river. Enormous Yields. It will then be practicable, whenever desired, to close the soil in the reservoir and in each lilied reservoir and then fertilize it as has naturalized. Such irrigation is done artificially in some parts of the world, in the volcanic soil, semi-tropical climate, arid atmosphere, abundant water and fertilizing the fields every year without expense. Mr. Davies states that such land is not cultivated by large agricultural crops taken off annually, an accrease precedent, in history. Electrical Power. Each reservoir constructed will furnish enormous electrical power, which can be utilized in the management of the region and boats. Locks can be constructed at each dam and the graded rock basins, which will render practicable the employment of large boats, run by means of the development, as suggested by Mr. Davis, would be relied upon. The reservoir will be built and soon filled with sediment, with the exception of the channel, by the vast amount of second reservoir, higher up the river, would be built, and so on. The slitting process would be used to reclaim land with the sediment it could be gilled back and the reclamation would be desired, in order that it longer required for this purpose the sediment could be sluiced out by the annual floods. Mr. Davis has outlined a tentative plan RIVER AT LOW WATER, SHOWING CAN BE RECL AIMED. Taking the population of the five adjoining dependent upon irrigation, he shows that the 1,200,000 acres from the Lower Colorado River to the Rockies are 1,300,000 people, or a community more numerous than the entire population of any one of twenty-three states of the world. In discussing the possibilities of the scheme he refers to one instance of a THE APPEAL. THE HOUSE OF THE MAYOR THE OLD LONGFELLOW HOMESTEAD, PORTLAND, MAINE THE RIVER Often I think of the beautiful town that is situated on the island, thought it up and down. The pleasant streets of that dear old town. And my youth, come back to me. Longfellow always awaken a responsive echo in the hearts of all natives of the State of Maine, as they think of the city by the river. And to think of Portland is to recall the longfellow home, where Longfellow's childhood and young manhood were passed, and where so many of his curious friends are located. What Burns is to Scotland, Goethe to Germany and Shakespeare to England, Longfellow is to America, and touring to Europe, to homes of poets as sacred shrines appreciate also the opportunity of visiting Longfellow's home. This fact was demonstrated by the first time opened to the public, over three thousand visitors having registered in six weeks. The admiration and appreciation of poetry by many of these registered guests being foreigners. Among them being Madame Modjeska and her husband Count Bassett, many of these registered guests being a laurel wreath on mass, and to place a laurel wreath on Longfellow's grave.

Guy E. Mitchell. Uncle Sam AS A Storm Chaser poets' corner of Westminster Abbey. Longfellow's old home in Portland, Maine, was the home of the historical society by his sister, Annie Longfellow Feller, on certain conditions. Some of these are that the society shall be created as a memorial to the poet, while in the rear of the house a suitable fireproof building shall be created for the safe preservation of books, papers and historical mementos. As the present rooms of the society were entirely inadequate for the proper classification and arrangement, this gift of Mrs. Pierce was accepted. But to meet all the conditions of the deed of the property, a gift of $75,000 to $100,000 will be required. A part of the necessary fund has been raised by subscription, but a large portion of the money made to all persons who are interested in the preservation of Longfellow's old home, as well as to the former residents of Maine to help along the good work of the Maine Historical society is of great value to Maine people, for they have collected and preserved a large number of pamphlets and papers. The society is constantly in receipt of letters from natives of Maine or from other countries to obtain information relating to their family his- SITE ON A TRIBUTARY OF THE COL Sometimes the cold wave will sweep over the coast of the Gulf of Mexico.

SPECIAL The National Afro-American Council. The Executive Committee of the National Afro-American Council held its regular semi-annual meeting at Lincoln Memorial Church, Washington, D.C. Monday, January 25, 1909, Bishop A. Walters, Chairman, presiding. It was decided to hold the next annual meeting of the National Afro-American Council at Louisville, Ky., July 7, 1908. The arrangements for the meeting are in the hand of a committee of which William H. Steward, Esq., editor of The American Baptist, Louisville, Ky., is chairman. Disfranchisement is to be the paramount theme for discussion. Each person on the program will be limited to twenty minutes and all speeches must be in manuscript.

Some of the statements made by the committee tell the story that the Executive Committee planned an "office trust," to pass upon the fitness of Afro-American applicants for public office. No such scheme was ever undertaken by the United Nations Committee. The National Afro-American Council is not in the office brokerage business. Its central thought is the uplifting and development of the Afro-American people. The National Afro-American Council is the battle of the race must be fought in the arena of public opinion, with skill, courage and intelligence, and must be persistently waged until a healthy public sentiment is created, which will eventually even rights to every man of every race. The Committee adopted the following address to the country: ADDRESS TO THE COUNTRY. It is evident to the thoughtful among us that passing through one of the most critical periods of our existence in this country. Questions that immediately preceded the adoption of treatment as early as the eighth of the United States and scarcely to less degree the whole population of the country can be answered to the extent mankind teaches that in public matters the liberty and safety of all the members of society. If it be true that the country can be saved, mankind still follows a necessary coyardial that the manhood of no state can with safety be divided in nearly equal portions. We denounce the mob murders now so prevalent in this country. We call the attention of the country to a condition of service on many farms in a number of the Southern states reservation and in violation of the Thirteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution, and ask the evil to permit our protest against the unfair practices in the transportation of passengers in the railroad industry against Afro-Americans; requiring of them the highest rates for accommodations in carriage; and we invoke the exercise of the powers of the federal government to prevent discriminations in rates and accommodations against inter-state passengers. Congress of the United States for favorable action upon the several measures now pending therein for the improvement of railroad accommodations into the condition of the Afro-Americans. We heartily endorse the deliverances of the fitness for appointment of the officer, and the attitude of the Federal Government race or color.

I won't caring for a refined performance. "Shaun Rhue" is one of those homely Irish dramas that always appeals to the heart and as "Shaun Rhue" (Red John) Mr. Murphy is able to teach the audience how to laughter and tears. Laughter follows his droll wit Iwit, and tears the moment of paths, particularly when driven from home he visits the grave of his mother, and picking up some of the earth, sings that pathetic line, which never fails to make a splendid impression. "Kerry Gow" is an Irish play similar to "Shaun Rhue," but shows the favorite actor in a role equally as strong as Kerry, blacksmith, with his stout arm, helping to help anyone in distress. As "Dan O'Dara" he is full of Irish vim and wit, and his impersonation is artistic and true.

The masses of the people do not belong to it or support it with their sympathy and Mrs. Judge Knott (2 a. m.)—Wake up,judge! Wake up! There's a burglar in the house. Judge Knott (sleepily)—Can't help that. Court has adjourned. AT THE REHEARSAL. money. Its annual conventions are delegates representing business and composed of fraternal delegates and professional interests, who are willing to pay $5 for participation in the deliberation of the convention and who cease to be active members when the national board of the organization really constitutes the only membership of the National Council from the adjournment of one annual convention to the assembling of another; with the exception, of course, of the state council in California, which has changed from the Afro-American League of California to the National Council in California at a state convention held since the adjournment of the National Council, at St. Paul, last August. No organization constituted as the National Afro-American Council is today, as to its basic membership, can do the important work mapped out by its founders and expected by the population in this large area. This latter will be approved by the next annual convention, and hoping that it will result in a basic membership of the council, and basing my action primarily on Article VI of the plan of state organization of the National Afro-American Council is the following plan of local organization: 1. Ten persons should be competent to organize a local council circle to be offered as provided for in Article II of the by-laws for local organization the local circle to be restricted in membership to ten persons, such local council conventions upon payment of assessment provided in Article XVIII of plan of state organization and to one He Knew. Reverend Visitor—Tommy, what does the story of Jonah and the whale illus- trate? delegate in annual National Council conventions upon payment of the tax provided in Article III, section 2, of the constitution of the National Afro-American Council. 2. Women may organize separate local councils, precisely the same conditions prescribed for men in specification 1 herewith. 3. Ten circles may organize a state council, as provided by Article IX of the national constitution. I sincerely hope, in every community where there are ten persons congenent to each other, in the face of the race, that they will at once organize a local council circle. I am reasonably certain that the women of the race will take hold of the work. When the council meets next year at Louisville there should be at least five hundred circles reported and represented. William A. Pledger, first vice-president of the National Afro-American Council, is hereby authorized to act as president during my absence.

Wesley O'Brien had drunk enough, he basked in the beauty he and he made a wager that he could drink a quart more without stopping. He succeeded in getting the whisky down, and almost immediately it began to get in its work. O'Brien was taken to his home at 247 Twelfth avenue south of his staircase and he could not sit there he soon died in great agony. The coroner investigated the case and held an autopsy, which showed he died from acute alcoholism. O'Brien was twenty-two years old and worked as a porter in a barber shop. He leaves a wife so far from the family, fully. His funeral was prescheduled by Rev. D. E. Butler Wednesday. THE LILY WHITES. Consider the "Lilies White!" whisky. It was made from the folly.

RICHMOND LAWYER ACCEPTS NEW ORLEANS CLUB'S OFFER Declares he is not Afraid to Repeat in the Metropolis of the South What he Really Said at the Receat Meeting Held in the National Capital. James H. Hayes, the lawyer whose speech at the meeting of the Afro- American Council in Washington, has created a stir in the South, and brought to him an offer of $2,000 to repeat the speech before a New Or- leans club, mailed an acceptance of the offer, but varying the matter of a pecuniary consideration. Mr. Hayes' letter is as follows: Washington, Jan. 29, 1903. To the Coliseum Club. Gentlemen: I am willing to come to New Orleans at any time you may designate, at my own expense, and deliver before you and in your hall—not the unfair, disconnected, perverted and garbled statement spoken but, rather, verbatim speech delivered before the American Council, Monday night. Knowing that you are Southern gentlemen, and although you may not entirely agree with me, yet I know that I will have nothing to fear at the hands of men who compose the brain, culture, refinement and Christianity of the South, and whose inborn sense of fair play will cause them to listen calmly, even to a negro's cause. Respectfully. JAMES H. HAYES. The offer to which Mr. Hayes' letter is the reply which will give in a dispatch to The Washington Post to this effect: New Orleans, La., Jan. 28. The Coliseum Club will give Nigger Hayes $3,000 and transportation to New Orleans if he will deliver in our hall his speech verbatim as delivered before Afro-American Council in Washington on the 26th.

As the time for the primaries approaches the political pot boils more fiercely. Graeme Stewart is not talking much but his friends are very busy "sawing wood." Harlan is making what might be properly termed a strenuous fight for the mayoralty. A Harlan club is being organized among the Afro-American voters of the Second ward. Mayor Harrison is doubtless passing some sleepless nights about this time and all on account of that man Darrow. Should Darrow make the race for mayor on a Union Labor ticket Harrison knows that he cannot win. Hence those tears. The collection of personal taxes by the county treasurer began this week. The dear public is cordially invited to walk up and plank down. Whether the primaries shall be early, with a long campaign, or late, with a short campaign, is a question that is disturbing the minds of the politicians. City Treasurer Gunther is being groomed by the Burke-Hopkins faction of the Democracy to pit against Harrison. The fact that Gunther refused to sign a Harrison petition is significant. “Tan” Bowman was in the city this week and reports business very dull between Chicago and the Coast. WITH every step, the sole of your shoe must bend. The proper place for it to bend is at the "ball" of the foot—never at the instep. To make it bend at the "ball" things are necessary: the sole must be extremely flexible while the shank or arch must be extremely rigid. Most shoes bend at the shank, thus losing their shapeliness and tiring the weak arch of the foot. That is what makes walking for most women so fatiguing. The "Dorothy Dodd" shoe has a shank that supports the weak arch firmly. It will not bend. The method of sewing the shank is different from the ordinary—it is sewn through and through—making a strong, firm shank than cannot be obtained any other way. It has a sole that is extremely flexible and will bend. The Plymouth The Plymouth Corner, Seventh and Robert. Agents for the Cross Stoves and Ranges And Thatcher Furnaces.
