IRRIGATORS

Their Shameful Neglect Set Forth
In a Letter From Washington.
Special Correspondence. OF the HERALD.

Special Correspondence of the HERALD.
WASHINGTON, March 9.-Four hun
dred years ago, according to the
narrative Of that Intrepid Spanish
adventurer, Cabeza de Vaca, the por-
ton of southern Arizona now occupied
by the ella Indian Reservation grew
luxurisnt crops of fruit and maize for
err describes them very much as they
are to-day. They occupied the came
lands as at present and were industrious
farmers and irrigators, as they continu-
ed to be for many years after the
acquisition OF Arizona by the United
States. They have raised corn wheat,
pumpkins, beans, sorghum and vege-
tables in profusion: they have lived in
small villages and held their lands in
severalty aud they are expert weavers
of fine blankets and. cotton fabrics. All
this has been accomplished through
irrigation, practiced by them since
before the discovery of the New
World.
What is the situation In this reserva-
ton today: Those philanthropists
who bewail the passing of the American
Indian, msy well turn their etten tion
to the destitute condition OF the Pima
Indians, brought about by the push of
of the white settler and the criminal
neglect of the government, whose
wards the Indians are.
The Pimas have always been friends
of the whites and enemies of the Apa-
ches. They gave aid and succor to the
early white pioneers and their tepees
were always open to peaceable whites
or Indians when hard pressed by the
savage foe. 1t is today their boast that
their hands have never been stained by
the white mans blood. 1t was under
these conditions that they were joined
about century ago by the Maricopss
who came as fugitives from the more
powerful Yuma tribe. When the belli-
gerept Apaches broke out upon the
warpath, the troops of the United Sta
tes often obtained substantial aid and
subsistence from the gentle Pimas
Their agriculture has been carrie on
entirely by irrigation with water
diverted from the ella River. The
tribes have always supported not only
themselves. but have shared their
worlds goods with the poorer Indians

THE DEMIN6 ROAD

Mr.. Bailey, the Holder of the Con-
cession, Is Silent As To His Plans,
But Says the Sierra Madre Lines
Movements Will Not Affect
Them
O. A. Bailey. OF Columbu n. M, is
in town today. Mr.. Bailey holds q
concession from the Mexican govern
meut for railroad from Demlng, N.
NJ, extending south to cross the In
tsrnational line at Las PalomaS into
the mining districts of the Sierra
Madres and through to the coast
a HERALD reporter called on Mr..
Bailey at the Pierson hotel but he was
not inclined TO say much ABOUT MS
plans. 10 fact he maintained the same
silence that hss characterized him ever
since his railroad proposition hrst ap-
peared. He would not say when any
work was expected TO be on his line.
When the reporter mentioned the
return of Engineer j. Fewson Smith,
of the Sierra Msdre line, and his party,
Mr.. Bailey appeared inter ested and
asked some questions as to the route
they had gone over and their reports.
This will not interfere with any OF
our plans was all Mr.. Bailey would
say, AS if we did anything we aim to
extend south by chihuahua and Du-
range. Moreover, this building raj
road over the Sierra Madres IN the
newspapers has been going on for the
past fifteen years. but it has never ma
terialized yet and it is going to be a
pretty big job
The Deming road is the revival OF an
old concession obtained years ago.
The line was then built on paper ex-
tending south from Deming through
Palomss, Janos, Ascension, Cssas
Grandes and across the divide down
to Guaymas and several old maps show
the line as being completed through to
the coast. However it failed to mat
erialize and for some reason the prom
eters abandoned it after grading had
been com pleted for q short distance |
south. At that time Deming was the |
American, and Las Palomas, the Mex /
lean port of entry for this district, but
since the ompletion of the Sierra Ma
Dire line much of the business has been
diverted to FL PasO,

by appearing in an assault case. She
was arrested by Harold.

Officer Harold is also credited with
the arrest of VIM. Bartt, who was

Roberta Garcia.

Democrats Wide wake.

The democratic state committee has
provided speakers for Ill democratic
meetings this week In addition to
these meetings the various county COM
mittees are sending speakers to ech0ol
houses and small villages. In Mar
shall county there are six meetings this
week not under direction of the state
central committee. If the other count
les are conducting as lively campaign
as Marshall, there are this week 552
democratic meetings in Indiana under
the management of the county COM
mittees. These with those under man
agement of the state committee would
make the total number of democratic
meetings this week 663. Evidently the
democrats of Indiana are wide awake.
After this week, the energies will be
doubled. County Chairman Wink has
already arranged for more than dozen
meetings in Marshall county for next
week. The state committee will also
send two speakers to Bremen and one
to Bourbon next week.

The following is the beginning of a

United States Senator Charles Fair

city on Saturday afternoon, addressing
one of the largest gatherings ever as
sembled in Marshall county, embracing
men of all shades of political belief.
Talk about telegraph liars Well this
do eclipse them all One of the larg-
est gatherings ever assembled in Mar

an ordinary Saturday crowd and con-
ceded by republicans as well as
democrats to have been a smaller crowd
than came to Plymouth the Saturday
previous when there was no ADVERTISED
attraction of any kind not even a
pumpkin show. This ought to convince
our people of the fact that the repuDli-
cans, during the campaign, are seeking
to bolster up their cause by glsring mis-
representations. Their meetings every
where have been of the "fzZle" kind
and they seek to deceive those not pres

The Burden Family Reunion.

|
We met beneath the old apple tree,
A jollier crowd one seldom sees;
Aunts and uncles and cousins and all
Had come 10 the carnival of the fall.
Trains and buggies had conveyed them
there,
That each might get his share
OF fun and frolic, cakes, pies and all
good things
Which the Burden reunion always
brings.
Not only Marshall county was repre-
sented,
But others, too, presented
Their delegation to this merry crowd.
Kansas and ONO, too, were proud
That they some one could send
The day in mirth to spend.
Stories were told of the olden ways,
They dlffer, quite, in our modern days
And Of the old time Johnny cake
That our grandmothers used to bake,
And of the huge fireplace
All novelty to the younger race.
And D, say, did you hear,
We're going to meet again next year
For there never was day such
That We enjoyed as much.
But as time goes on some will go;
May we live good lives, SO
That as the loved faces
Are missed from their usual places,
We may be assured of reunion above,
In the Heavenly Home of love.
The reunion of the Burden family,
which 0ccssiOned the above homemade
rhyme, was held at the home of q. w

gathered to renew old ties and friend
ships. The tables were spread on the
lawn beneath the apple trees and a
feast that would rival those of King
Arthur's court was placed thereon
Old-time "reminiscences and jokes were
INDUCED in by the older relatives, while
a kodak and camera made fun for the
younger ones.
So the day too hastily went, but the
next day all met at the home of Mrs

BOWser and kitch Speak.

There was a splendid audience out
to hear Hon. T. Z. Bowser, democratic
candidate for state senator, at the head
quarters Wednesday night. There were
at least $50 people in the hall and a
splendid exposition of the issues was
presented. Mr.. Bowser is a scholarly
gentleman and, if elected, will confer
dignity and reflect credit upon the
district which he represents. He will
receive the united democratic support
and the republicans who had decided
to vote for John X. Lawrence will aid
Mr.. Bowser. The democratic csndI-
date left a very favorable impression
with our people.

Mr.. Bowser and his sarcasm and pointed
stories brought down the house. Mr..
