FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1901.
IF the friends of good government in New York city would get together and •vote without division the fate of Tammany would be sealed. The proof of Tammany's league with crime is at least half a century old.
SOME of the new dispensation Democrats intimate that it may be necessary to nominate Cleveland in 1904, This is the sort of talk that will please the men who framed the Chicago and the Kansas City platforms. As between Cleveland and any man whom the Republicans could nominate Bryan would support the Republican. There are hundreds of thousands of men of this way of thinking in the Democratic party. On the other hand, if Bryan should be re-nominated, or if any of Bryan's friends should get the candidacy, there are hundreds of thousands of Cleveland Democrats who would take to the woods or come over to the Republican side. This is the reason why Senator Jones is calling loudly for an obscurity for 1904. The fate of the Democracy under an obscurity or a celebrity will be the same. That party faces disastrous defeat whichever way it turns.
SOME weeks ago THE JOURNAL published an editorial on the subject of farming, by irrigation, in the mountainous regions of the great west in which was expressed -the opinion that, in time, many of our large cities would be supplied with vegetables and fruits from irrigated valleys in the Rocky mountains, We find in a late number of a western paper, the Lewiston leller, a confirmation of our theory. The editor had recently been on a visit to the great Yakima valley, in Washington, and he writes this about it: $t '"There is no spot on earth like the the irrigated valley of Yakima. It is here one sees fruit and grain and dairying stock until his eye is wearied. It is the result alone of irrigation. The water supply cannot fail for it comes from the eternal snows on the Cascade mountains."
And so it is in hundreds of localities throughout the mountainous regions of California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, and Washington—the snow continues to melt during the entire cropping season and run down into the valleys. The ingenuity of man will some day utilize all this melted snow.
MUCH interest centers about the possibilities in the case of Jose Abreu, the first Filipino to hold a government office in this country. He is employed as a elerk in the bureau of insular affairs of the war department. He has been an insurgent, and as one of Aguinaldo's officers opposed the American forces in the Philippines. Now, however, he has the confidence of the department to the fullest extent. Those who see him on the streets of Washington as a small and slender gentleman in American clothes, but with an undeniable Oriental appearance, find it hard to reconcile his present looks and occupation with his former known ability as an intrepid leader and fighter. His father was also an insurgent, but is now a leader of the federal party in the islands. Mr. Abreu, the
new
clerk, is a linguist of
extraordinary ability, and a close student of law. He will be of great assistance to the department on account of hiB familiar and intimate knowledge of the islands and their customs. At present he is working on a geographical gazetteer of the Philippines and his acquaintance with the various provincial dialects is of particular value.
A Pleasant Day.
To the SUitor of The Journal.
On last Sunday, Sept. 1st. it was our pleasure to be one of a merry crowd who assembled at the pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. Will Saidla, near Gravelly Run school house, to make merry with them in honor of Mrs. Saidla's sisters, Mrs. Philip Richardson and son, Lloyd Hayes and Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Dunbar and family, of Brighton, la.
About thirty of us gathered early in the morning. The older ones spent the forenoon in pleasant conversation, while Masters Earl, Glenn and Claudfe entertained their guests at crcquet. About one o'clock luncheon was announced. The tables groaned under their heavy load of good things prepared by Mrs. Saidla, assisted by Miss Myrtle Smith. I'm sure we all did our part to keep thoBe dainties from spoiling. We all left at a late hour, voting Mr. and Mr. Saidla royal entertainers.
A GUEST.
Crops and Weather.
The weekly bulletin of the Indiana weather bureau says: "The railfall during the week was fairlyJtoell distributed, except in some distflqt^rof the southern and central portions, where the showers were scattered and moisture insufficient. Corn is in various stages of advancement, from silking to ripening grain, and a late fall, with seasonable weather, ^immaterially aid in maturing much ofjit that is still green. The bulk of the grain will be safe from frost by Sept. 21-25, There is noticeable improvement in the condition of tobacco in the southeastern portion cutting continued in Randolph and began in Elkhart county. Tomatoes and pickles, were grown for canning purposes, as well as other late vegetables, are promising. Fairly good apple prospects continue, and peacheB, pears and plums are plentiful. 'Sorghum cane is improving. Plowing continued under generally favorable conditions. Some rye was sown, and about the usual wheat acreage will be prepared."
Still Winning.
A letter from Lew W. Cochran, dated at Columbus, O., contains the following: "I just completed my shows on my 18 head of Percherons, Shires and Hackney horses. The shows were all very warm, from 5 to 20 in each show. So far I have won this week on my 18 head, 17 firsts, and 6 seconds, including 3 grand sweepstakes. Mark Hanna, the spotted pony, was an outstanding first winner, and has a good show to win two more first prizes on equippage and saddles. Attendance good and weather fine.

'DIAMONDS TO OKDER
Indiana Alchemists Artificially Produce the Gems.
THE CRAWFORDSVILLE WEEKLY JOURNAL.
Indianapolis, Sept. 5.—Louis H. Sculmeyer, a well known chemist of this city, and Henry Reitz, an electrician, after five years of experimenting, announce tnat they have finally perfected a process by which diamonds can he manufactured from carbon. The process is an improvement on that announced some years ago by an eminent French scientist, who conducted successful experiments to demonstrate the fact that the manufacture of the gems was possible. By the process adopted by the Indianapolis alchemists diamonds weighing three-fourths of a carat have been obtained. Smaller and imperfect stones have been crushed by the experimenters, and are already on the market in the form of diamond dust.
The experiments were conducted in a dingy, gloomy cellar in the heart of the city, and on one occasion the investigators were mistaken for counterfeiters, and their laboratory raided. The only secret in the process is that relating to the alloy used instead of the cast iron employed by the French.

A 1IICH HAUL
Texas Train Kohbers Get Away With $35,000.
Texarkana, Sept. 5.—The six men who held up the Cotton Belt passenger train at Eylau, Tex., Tuesday, are still at large. The robbers evidently rode their horses up Akin creek and left them standing in the stream. They then used a handcar and went five miles north, as tlie handcar was found near where the train was stopped. After looting the mail and express cars the robbers returned to the creek, mounted their horses and again rode down the stream, thus obliterating their trail.
The robbers secured one package of $10,000, and it is said the entire haul was about .$35,000. The express men, railroad and government officials are very reluctant about discussing the robbery.

Deserter
Taken In Philippines.
Manila, Sept. 5.—Lieutenant Hazzard of the Third cavalry has brought in here Arthur Howard, the American deserter who was recently captured by tin: lieutenant while in command of fcoine Macabebe scouts in the island of Mindanao. He was. placed in jail and will shortly be courtmartialed. Howard denies lie was ever an American soldier. He claims he was born in Spain, that his father was English and his mother Spanish, but that he espoused the cause of the Filipinos. In 18!)0 after peace was declared, he says lie went to Ilong Kong and returned in isns as AguinaldCs chief of artillery. While in that position, Howard also says, he made friends with many Americans before the insurrection. including General Green. He cast his lot with Aguinaldo at the time of the rupture with the Americans, and he says he brought in 16 American prisoners under a flag of truce at Angeles, in September, 1899. Howard denies that he commanded the force at San Mateo which killed Lawton. He speaks like an educated Englishman. Lieutenant Hazzard says he himself saw Howard at Angeles in 1899. Two former California volunteers have identified Howard as a deserter from their regiment, named Wallcy. in Company A, who deserted in 181)9.
