HOUSE MEMORIAL NO. 4.
To the Senate and House of Represents tives of the United States in Con-
 sress Assembled.

We, your Memorialists, the Nine teenth Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Arizona, respectfully rep- resent that the National Irrigation Congress, held in Phoenix. Arizona, on the llth of December, A. D. 1896, unan- imously adopted the following:
 Whereas. The Pima and Maricopa Indians. tribes numbering in the aggregate ten thousand souls, have been deprived of the waters used by them in irrigation before the advent of the white race in America, through the appropriation Of such waters by settlers on the headwaters of the Gila river; and
 Whereas. Through the loss of such waters the lands once cultivated by these tribes have become barren and worthless and the members of such tribes have become a charge on the Government. and forced by the loss of their fields into lives of degrada- tion and penury; and
 Whereas. Such tribes have from the ear- Hest days been the friends and allies of the white race and
 Whereas, The people of the United States have pledged themselves by solemn treaty to protect such tribes in their property and property rights; and
 Whereas, The Government of the United States has and now is engaged in the ex- penditnre Of hundreds of thousands of dol- lars for the construction of works of irriga- tion for the reclamation of lands belonging to other Indian tribes; therefore be it
 Resolved. That this Congress do approve the proposed construction. under the plans of the U. $. Geological Survey of the Buttes reservoir. in PiDal county, Arizona, recently reported, to again reclaim the lands of these tribes, believing that by so doing can the Government alone honorably redeem the broken pledges made by it to these people, and thus preserve from further want and degradation two of the surviving Indisn tribes of the American continent that have always been the constant friends of the white race.
 Resolved, That we approve the proposed 1 construction of such reservoir not only as just and philanthropic. but as economical i and good policy. as in a comparatively shors time the expense of maintaining such In- l dians as Government charges will far exceed 1 the cost of the irrigation works required to make them q self-supporting and self-re- l specting community.
 New, therefore, your Memorialists, the Nineteenth Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Arizona, desire to go on record as earnestly endorsing the above recommendations of the Sixth National Irrigation Congress for the following reasons:
 l. The reservoir site referred to ! having been withdrawn iron entry by Government authorities, cannot now be utilized by any private corporation, and the Government therefore occupies
The Florence tribune., 1901-05-25

the indefensible position of doing noth- ing itself or allowing any one else to improve this great natural reservoir site.
 2. We firmly believe that the inter ests of humanity dictate that the In dians should be gathered on the reser- vations, have lands allotted to them in seyeralty, and that they be furnished with farming implements and an inex- haustiDle supply of water for irrigation of their lands, to the end that they may become self supporting. By this means will home life be furnished for the Indian and he will more rapidly advance in civilization as conse- quence. He will abandon his nomadic life; his children will be kept at home and educated iD neighborhood schools, instead of being sent to large Indian schools at distance where they are kept Gas it would seeml for mere purposes of show. After being in- structed in the arts of civilization for a 1 time they are returned to savagery to become more unhappy and discon- tented than if they had rever received ! the questionable advantages. We feel that the present policy of the Indian department is all wrong in this regard
 3. The Pima and Marieopa Indiar reservation contains 350.000 acres of as fertile land as lies within the bound aries of Arizona, and is admirably adapted for homes for these people, as well as the wandering Papagoes. wh, are now compelled to prey upon th, herds of our farmers and ranchmen fo subsistence.
 4. The construction of storag ,reservoir at the Buttes by the Govern ment offers plain business proposi ton for the correction of these evils

Pinal county was organized in 1875 from portions of Pima, Maricopa and Yavapai counties, and contains on area of 1888 square miles. or s.4s5,520 acres, one-third of which could be made productive by systematic storage of the surplus water now running to waste. Next to Maricopa it is the most important agricultural county in the Terri tory. It is traversed from east to west by the Southern Pacific railroad. and branch of the great Sansa Fe system is now ap- preaching from the north. The objective point of this road is a connection with the Sonora road, of the same system. The Southern Pacific is also building in this direction from Tempe, and it is confidently believed that work will not cease until the Deer Creek coal fields are reached and con nection is made with another branch of that road running from Bowie to Globe and now completed to Fort Thomas.
 Thus it will be seen that Pinal county is the theater of railroad building at the pres ont time, and inside of year Florence. the county seat, will be

DRINK IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
People of the State Consumed Two and a Half Millions Worth of
 Liquor in Eleven Months.

The largest whisky bottling estab- lishment in the world is located in South Carolina, says the New York Herald. There are extensive distil- leries and immense bottI4ng works scattered throughout the country, as may be noted by the advertisements on the dead walls of the city. But the palmetto state concern towers above them all.
 In the II months of the year 1900 the month of December not being considered in the fiscal arrangement the commonwealth, in it's capacity of barkeeper to all it's citizens, dis posed of g, ,s40.22 worth of drink ables. This sum was ill advance of the entire preceding 12 months by $750,0O0. For the entire year of 1900 the increase has been sl,0oo,00O, sug- gesting a remarkable advance in the thirst of the people of South Caro- lima. December was naturally the heaviest month of all in the sales at the various dispensaries scattered throughout the state. All the coun- try and his brother appeared to be in want of bottle during the month of the great holiday. and thus the sales rose s250,00o in 31 days.
 South Carolina's experiment in drink selling has proved unusually in- { teresting. The system was put in practice in 1894. at which time the state advanced s50,oo0 for stock " This s5o,o0o has long since been re- turned to the treasury, and the state, the counties and the cities have been making money ever since.
 Gut of the sales last year the profits to the state was $1Ts.0l2, and this will be used for the improvement of the public schools. The remainder of the total profits of STATS is to be divided among the towns and coun- ties in whose districts are dispen- saries.
