The "Wait a while" argument in the
municipal campaign is the easiest way
of passing over serious problem that
demands a new era in the degree Of
civic pride shown by every citizen.
Framing or conducting a city govern
ment is not pastime to furnish
amusement. The task will be not
whit less difficult two years hence
than II is today. The hope that In two
years the voting population will con-
tain a larger element of Americans
trained in the politics of city admins
tration is weak indeed since this new
population is sure to bring its share OF
men trained in city corruption which
we are told is the great bugbear Of tho
present. The "mahope" principle new
or accomplished anything for good gov
eminent.

IN A DECLINE.
French Journalism In State of Intel
lectual Collapse.

Leisure HOur.)
what Is the social significance of the de-
cline of French Journalism? By decline is
not meant here the falling off of Journal
lstic enterprise in commercial sense. but
an Intellectual AMI literary decline The
fact il in no need of proof, because il has
forced itself convincingly upon the world.
Under the second empire and during the
early years of the present regime the
french press was undoubtedly the most
literary press in Europe. The severe cen
sorship of the empire. combined with
other causes. had produced a school of
journalists who had perhaps no more nat
ural talent for the work than those who
have taken their places, but who had
brought the art of writing on tOplcS of the
day to such degree of perfection that
their ephemereal articles and chroniuueS
were often the delight of the literary emf
cure. Even when the subject was trivial
they Sparkled with that esprit which the
French publicists of today are fast ex
changing for a brutal plainness of ex-
preston. The charm of the old style to
people of culture was that irony and sub
tie suggestion left so much to be read
between the lines; but the character
istic tendency of the new style is to use
every word as a bludgeon.
No doubt this change is intimately con-
nected with the new conditions of news
paper competition which have arisen from
the increased number of the reading pub
tic and the progressive cheapening of the
daily press John Lemoine, if he were
still alive. would have place of honor in
French journalism on account of his rep-
utatlon; but young journalists find no
which could cut the keenest edge. while
wearing the finest polish. and which was
never disfgured by malignant motive or
bad taste. It cannot be doubted that the
extreme license of the French press of
today presents a social problem of excep-
tional gracity. 1t is a national scourge
and yet in default of what is called retro
grade legislation there is only one power
that can repress this license effectuaIly-
viz: public opinion. Now. the great mis-
fortune of France has ever been the want
of an enlightened. steady and strong cur
rent of public opinion, founded not on hys-
terical notions of patriotism but on com
mon sense views of what is necessary to
the general well being. Until such a pub
lie opinion is formed there can be no hope
Of any real improvement in France.

now much water may be taken for
each acre of land, under the principle
of beneficial use.
Justice Must Be Done.
The public must see that Justice
is done in the distribution of water
among those who have properly es-
tablished their rightful claims to it.
We have thoroughly tried the method
of leaving all this to private initiative
management, and, along with mag
nlflcent material progress we have
reaped large crop of deplorable finan-
cal results Whatever may be said
or fraternalism elsewhere. the prin-
clple of public control and supervision
in this particular field is inseparabIe
from peace and progress
While much may be left to the ac-
tlon or states and committees, there
Is still wide field for national efforts.
Only the nation can legislate as to the
public lands and reform the abuses in
connection with the present system of
land laws. There is a strong popular
demand in the west for legislation pro
viding public aid in the construction of
works of too great magnitude and cost
There is a growing belief that one
Of two things should be done. Either
the arid states should be placed in a
position TO extend this aid, or the gen.
eral government should extend the
work it is now doing in the reclamation
or certain Indian reservations to the
reclamation of the unoccupied public
lands.
One policy much discussed and wide
ly favored is legislation which will per-

Professor Mead on Irrigation.
After a brief discussion of the time
at which the next place of meeting is
to be selected (wh oh was set for Friday
afternoon, Mr. Mead of Okla homa read
his paper. He said. in part:
The essence of the problem of re-
claiming arid lands which confronts us
at the outset is the control and dis
tribution of the water supply, since
not only the enduring prosperity but
the very existence of the homes Great
ed Will be conditioned upon the abil-
ity to use these rivers for irrigation.
The diverse interests of individuals and
communities and even of different
states will all be dependent upon
streams flowing from a common
source.
ITO reclaim all the land possible will
involve the spreading of water over a
surface as large as New England with
New York added. Standing now at tie
birth of things, and looking down the
vista of the future, we can see in the
course of these rivers the dim outline
Of a mighty civilization, blessed with
peace and crowned with a remarkable
degree of prosperity, in case wise laws
and just policies shall prevail in the
years of the immediate future, while
Institutions are forming.
But if il be otherwise. if greed and
ignorance are allowed to govern and
we ignore the experiences of older
countries than Our own. then we may
behold only q gloomy forecast of legal,
economic and possibly even civil strife. -
After considering the present and fu-
ture benefits of irrigation, the need of
better laws the uncertainty as to state
and federal Jurisdiction, the compliea-
tons from lack of uniform water laws.
methods and measures needed to de-
velop the arid region and appropriation
and distribution of the water supply,
Mr.. Mead concluded as follows:
The entire discussion leads up to one
inevitable conclusion. This is that ir
rigation, over and above all other in
dustries, is matter demanding pub
lie supervision and control. Every
drop of water entering the headgate.
and every drop escaping at the end
