We have been invited 10 90 into an
irrigation scheme In southern California
which is to cost 1900 600, but is To be
capitalized At twiec that SUM, while
water rights at $40 per acre are TO be
issued TO the tune Of eight millions.
Thus the poor settlers arctic pay Tor their

with the idea that is advocacy Is solely
In their interest when II il really In the
interest Of an outside scheme In which
the publisher happened to be engaged.
These are reasons enough for any sell
