The all-' absorbing toplo among the delegate to the' National Irrigation congress today Is the question of tbe proposed merger with the Transmtsslsslppl Commercial congress. The tendency on the part of the delegates to favor tbe merger Is growing constantly and there Is little doubt in the minds ot most observers aa to the movement Anally proving successful. It Is being ntrenuously opposed by a strong faction headed by F. J. Kelsel of Ogden, Utah, on tbe ground that irrigation should be maintained as an Issue of itself, while tbe old leaders of the Irrigation congress, headed by George Max well of Chicago and John Henry Smith ot Salt Lake, are as strongly In favor of- tha merger on tho ground- that the irrigation congress, in securing the passage of the Irrigation act, has accomplished its mis sion and should leave 'further matters In th development of the Irrigation theory in tha hands ot the government officials, to whom it now naturally falls. - - An effort was made at the opening of the congress this morning by the opposition' to the merger to force the question to vote by shutting off further speech In. the re ports of committees. The sense of the con vention, was to some extent determined by the voting down ot this resolution. Will Aid Colonisation.'

It will give, colonization an Im petus, the Influence ot which will leave its mark upon the generations to come. Thus colonization, as tbe handmaid of ir rigation, will bring within the reach ot the latter new confidence and possibilities and irrigation will prepare for colonization new realms, while these combined sciences will provide an Immense home market, mak ing it easier for tbe masses of our popula tion to be and do good.
