THOSE ARID WASTES.

In an article in the Forum this month
Senator STEWART calls attention to the
possibility of placing a population of
200,000,000 in the Great American desert.
Those look like pretty large figures for
the remains of what was few decades
ago regarded as an uninhabitable re-
gion. But they seem to be accepted by
scientific authorities. Maj. POWELL, the
government investigator, agrees with
Mr.. STEWART that these sandy wastes
east of the Rockies can be reclaimed.
If there is water to be obtained for irri-
CATION, there is no question that these
regions can be made productive. There
are evidences of success in ancient
times of such efforts in Arizona and
South America. But there is no occa-
sion for haste in the matter. 1t will be
a good while before the 200,000,00O peo-
pie will be ready to go there. About
that number can find ample room this
side of the arid sands.
