S "Wo have come j back to our country thoroughly con vinced that our people and our gov ernment stand out as a wonderful ob ject lesson to the peoples of the whole world," declared Samuel Gompersjjto night in his "report to the American people" on the work of the labor mis sion to Europe. ! Speaking at a huge mass meeting, the president of the American Federa tion of Labor re-Iterated that Ameri can labor stands pledged to the last man, to the last drop of blood, to de feat Prussian militarism and, amid applause, declared that in Europe the spark of freedom had burst into a flame that has sounded the death knell of kings and autocracy throughout the world. After referring to the declaration adopted by American labor at Wash ington in March, 1917. "insisting on conditions of labor and freedom dur ing any war" and pledging support to tho government, Mr. Gompers said: "I merely wish to call your atten tion to the fact that at the London labor intor-allled labor conference of September, the American mission pro posed and the conference adopted the declaration, not in tho same words but in the same sense as adopted by American labor more than a year and a half ago." Bolshevik Drcss Denounced Mr. Gompers sharply criticized what he characterized as the pro-German and Bolshevik press of the allied countries, declaring that every effort of the mission was the target of those propagandists. "In Italy, for instance, this press published us as frauds and not rep resentatives of American labor. We replied that we represented four mjl llon working people, and the Avante, literally translated into .English, the Advance Bolshevlki, pretended Italian official socialist paper, said: " 'Well, Mr. Gompers may represent four million workers, but he represents moro millions of dollars.' To which I replied . " 'If I represent dollars no one has yet accused me of having received German dollars!' " uu TWO MORE DEATHS OCCUR AT'EUREKA EUREKA, Nov. S.

C. FOR STUDY OF IIGSII Important irrigation problems and their attempted solutions will be the subject for a course of special classes at the Utah Agricultural College, Lo gan, immediately following the farm ers round up. February 3 to 8, and will occupy two weeks. A special course for watermasters is to be given by the department of irrigation and drainage of the Utah Agricultural college during the com ing winter, according to Professor. O. W. Israclson. This course will be given just following the big farmers' roundup which will be held at Logan.. It will run for 4wo weeks and aim. In that time, to give a fundamental knowledge of cor rect irrigation practice and to ac quaint those taking advantage "of the course with the important irrigation problems, of the west. Professor Jsraelson declares that a most urgent need for such a course j exists1 in this state. "Every Irrigation company in Utah should make it pos I sible for its waterniaster to attend i this special course in irrigation," says Professor Israclson. "It would no doubt be well for every irrigation j company, purely as a war measure, to depart from its established practice of choosing a watermaster during March or April and begin immediately to look for the best available talen-. to act as watermaster next year. Choosing the watermaster now will j give him an opportunity to study at : home during the long winter months ! practical problems in water measure- j ments. and in capacities of soils to 1 I retain water, and to become acquaint ed with company rules and regula I lions and other problems vitally con i cerned with the economical use of the state's water 'supply. Just what Utah's i 1 most perplexing irrigation problems arc, and how to study them will be features of the special course for watermasters "It Is fully recognized that food pro- ' duction in the west is vitally depend - I out on the total available water sup- j ply and on how it Is used. Indeed, the fundamental importance of irriga- j tion to food production is so obvious ' as to need no comment. "Utah was probably one of the first slates to gjve special attention to the conservation of its irrigation waters as a means of increasing food produc tion, and the Agricultural college has been called upon to assist in urging the need for unusual economy in the use of water. It has been asked to assist in some readjustments of water distribution, in order to save crops which were threatened with destruc tion through drouth, and about 3,500 acres of wheat amounting, in all prob ability, from 35.000 to 50.000 bushels of wheat have been saved in this way." oo PROMINENT DENTIST.
