tention to new wards thousands of miles distant, while it's original friends and allies are left to steal and beg all existence or starve.
 The United States has expended large sums of money for the introduc- tion of irrigation on the Indian reser- vations where it is desired to educate the Indians into agricultural habits as means to his civilization. Here is a tribe of Indians who have for cen tnFies been engaged in agriculture by irrigation, and who were, until recent ly, the only successful irrigators in Ari- zona. They are now deprived Of their water through the agency of the white man, directly encouraged by the United states government. Is it not an inn perative obligation of honor upon the American people that their supply should be restored to them? The only means lies through the construction by the government of storage reser- voir on the Gila. And instead of the uncertain possibility of elevating a savage or hostile tribe, the necessity presents itself of preventing the de- struction of civilization already at tained among a friendly and in times past hospitable people.

Irrigation h Politics.

IFrom the Los Angeles Saturday Postl
 The Republican party platform just adopted recognizes the duty of the Government to take up the development of irrigation in the arid West. This is good. The vast area of desert in the West and Southwest can never be re- claimed except by the nation. The only way that very large amount of good but dry land can be made pro- ductive and inhabitable in the West is by intelAgently planned irrigation works, honestly constructed and honestly administered. The lands thus made available can be sold to actual settlers for enough to pay the cost of judicious development and application of water. We were grieved to see that the last sentence of this part of the platform requires that the manag ement of such national works and the distribution of the water to settlers or others be left with the States and Territories.
 Persons well informed ont his subject and who are disinterested are unan- imous in the opinion that the man. agement, expenditure and control should be in the nation. These public spirited men are absolute ly opposed to State or Territorial control of public lands, water or expenditures for con struction. The experience of this country is uniform that the executive system of no, State or Territory is strong enough to properly manage snch public lands as have been turned over to them, State management of public land has been incompetent and l corrupt its tendency has always been

to create large holdings. In no case has a State escaped from the rankess and most impolitic management of public lands entrusted to them. No one should approve of Territorial management of national irrigation works or national lands after the scandals that have occurred in such matters as the Swamp Land orgies.
