He found ti lively lntercet In tho annual gathering of tho congress to bn held In Chicago next week nnd wiw gratllled with the willingness Indi cated by etithiiKlasts on tho question to ect other things nstilo and attend tho meeting at Chicago. "Tho poopU of tho east," declared Mr. Mu'xwcll, "aro beginning to rculize tho ad vantages that will como to them In tho rec lamation of western arid land so that they may bo converted from desert wastes Into home for millions of scttlcrn. These set tlers will open new markets for tho eastern manufacturers and the bcntllclal Influences will bo widespread. Ilccauao of this condi tion tho appropriation wo seek from con Kress does not have it origin In the desires of otio nurticulur section.

"How Important It Is to Omaha that our plans materialize Is nolf-ovidcnt. This city Is the gateway to tho west. It will thrive nnd prosper only In such measure as tho tr.mstHlshourl territory thrives nnd pros pers and how great this meaauro would bo an easily bo appreciated If tho west were Inhabited by millions of prosperous agri culturists where thero arc now, compara tively, but hundreds. It Is as much a fed eral function for tho government to store iheso Hood waters of webtern rivers, pre norvlng them for tho use of settlers when needed nnd preventing them from Inundat ing tho country and accomplishing great damngo by Hoods In the springtime, as It Is to build levees to hold tho waters of the lower Mississippi. "Thero Is only one thing necessary to bring about the accomplishment of the things we dcslro nnd that Is a display of Kinccrlty and u proof of earnestness which will attract to our support a majority of the members of tho national congress. This can only bo done by Interesting In the project their constituent. Wo must, con Hcciuently, Intercut to a greater extent than at present tho business men of the cast Already many eastern business associations have end irsed our efforts voluntarily and there ca'i be no doubt that we will get an appropriation iu thu next congress If we continue our efforts In that direction and lay beforo cougrcuB tho needs and possi bilities of tho caso." Unvn Mercer I'rtiiiilard Help. Congressman Mercer attended tho meet ing and expressed himself as heartily In favor of the propo'sltlon. "If wo can gain tho sympthy of tho east In this matter,' ho said, "to such an extent that somo of tho money which Is uselessly expended through tho river and harbor approprl ntlons can bo diverted for tho purpose of constructing Irrigation reservoirs Iu tin west, ma goou mat win como to out transmlssourl region will bo so fur-reach lug as to bo almost incomprehensible." I. A. I'ort of North Platte, H. Mc lntosh and i: U. Ilruco upoko in favor oi pushing tho ' matter with all posslbl enurgy. Mr. Ilruco asserted that within tho territory immediately contiguous tr Omaha there aro .10,000,000 acres of land that by mcaiA of Irrigation could be mad fertile and productlvo nnd furnish lioruc; for 4,000,000 people.

Tho strike of tho Dlectrical Workers' union ou the Thompson-Houston Hlcctrlc Ight company has caused a division In tho ranks of the union which will permit cer tain of tho workmen In tho employ of tho company to contlnuo at work without los ing membership in the union, while another branch will wage warfare upon tho business 1 tho corporation. As iu somo other trades tho electrical workers arc divided Into brnnches, tho most prominent lino of dcmnikatinu being between tho linemen and those who work inside of Iiouhcb, known as wlremcn. In tho present dlillculty tho wlremcn aro tho ones who havo complained and who havo ordered the utrlko. The linemen nro not uiploycd In the construction department of he company and, so far as known, have no auso for complaint. At, least, they desire to hold their Jobs, und further, they dcslro to maintain their stnndtng In tho union. For this reason It Is probable that the Inter national union of Electrical Workers will bo icuucutcd to Issue u chnrtcr to a new union In Omaha, ono which will Include only tho linemen. With the organization of the linemen's union tho matter of tho wages of theso workmen would bo taken from tho hauds of tho wlremcn and other electrical work era, and while they would work In harmony they would not be bound to stand or fall together. Thero has for somo tlmo been uioro or less friction between tho two branches In Omaha and they havo strug ;lcd for tho control of the organization, often Injuring their own condition by tho struggle. The division, if it can be effected, will bo amicable und both Bides look upon t as tho only solution of tho matters which havo caused discord. of $1,000.00 a year.
