HOW TO DISPOSE OF BENEFITED LANDS.
Recently drawn maps showing land owned
hy the Government in the various arid States.
give warning Of a danger which is becoming
more imminent every day. The Government en-
gineers have already given indications in their
work of where reservoirs would he To-
Gated. and shrewd settlers have not been back
ward in taking advantage Of this knowledge.
The maps in question show that land has al
ready been secured which would be benefited
without cost TO the owner by the building Of
Government reservoirs and canals, and in some
places land has been taken up where II will
have TO be bought by the Government to clear
the way for purposes of construction. If the
Government is going to build reservoirs for the
reclamation of arid land, as will undoubtedly
be the case sooner or later. IT is matter OF
pressing importance that all land which may be
benefited by these reservoirs should be at once
withdrawn from settlement and held subject to
subsequent legisati ton, which will be necessary
after an artificial water supply has been Sc
cured.
MI Maxwell. the founder Of the Irrigation AS
sceiation, who is now in Washington in the in
terest OF this work proposes that after this land
has been withdrawn from settlement and water
is to be had for its cultivation, the Govern
ment should divide 1t into small tracts. say not
over eighty acres. which is ample 20 produce a
handsome income for family, and that this
land should then be put up at auction and sold
TO the highest bidder for cash. no one family
being allowed 70 purchase more than a single
parcel. He does not favor any system Of time
payments, and believes that the Government
would Immediately get back the money expend-
ed by selling the land in this manner. the auc-
tion feature insuring it's sale for full market
value and 10 those who would be compelled 70
improve IL to secure returns upon their invest
ment.
Congress as a whole is fighting shy of COM
mitting itself to this principle of the reclamation
Of arid land by the Government, but there are
signs Of yielding in hitherto antagonistic dIrec-
tions, and while IL would be a great surprise If
the principle prevailed now, y Is extreme
probability that some measure OF the kind will
be enacted by a succeeding Congress.

HOUSE DISCUSSES NAVAL BILL.
KENTUCKY CONGRESSMAN WANTS \ NAVY
LARGE ENOUGH TO MEET ALL
cONERS"

Washington. Jan. 23.-The House to-day
passed the District of Columbia Appropriation
bill and entered upon consideration of the Naval
Appropriation bill There was some discussion
OF the extent TO which the Navy TO be in
creased ultimately in the course of which Mr..
Wheeler, a Democrat from Kentucky, and
member of the committee, declared himself in
favor OF a Navy large enough to meet all
comers," and some criticism by Mr.. Richardson,
the minority leader, of the rapid growth OF
naval expenditures. Several provisions of the
bill were knocked out on points of order. in
cudng that 10 give warrant officers the COM
mutation for quarters allowed second ueuten-
ants of the Marine Corps. A point OF order was
sustained against amendment to increase the
number of chaplains in the Navy from twenty
four to thirty-four.
The Senate resolution for the celebration of
John Marshall Day February - was adopted
1t was agreed that general debate on the
Naval bill should he limited to one hour. Mr.
Foss. chairman of the Naval Committee, who
in charge of the measure, explained it's
salient features. In answer to question, Mr.
Foss said that our Navy larger than the
German navy. and was keeping a little ahead
of it. Mr.. Grosvenor took exception TO this re-
mark. which he considered unfortunate and
capable of misconstruction. We were friendly
with Germany. and there was reason why
poses of comparison.
Mr.. Foss disclaimed any idea that were di-
recting our energies toward keeping ahead of
Germany. He had simply stated a fact. He
believed in a strong and efficient Navy. not so
large as EngIand's. but of moderate size. built
on conservative lines. and capable of upholding
the honor of the country and the flag.
Mr.. Hill asked whether the committee had
given any consideration TO the question of the
ultimate size OF the Navy.
Mr. Foss replied that the committee had not
considered that question. Congress must decide
that question. For the present the committee
believed in proceeding conservativeIy Man for
and ship for ship, he believed the American
Navy the most efficient in the world.
Mr.. Foss said the controverted question as to
armor plate had been happily settled by the
action of the Secretary of the Navy in accepting
bids for 36,S10 tons of armor. at S42O a ton
with S24 50 royalty for Krupp and S11 20 ton
for Harvey armor He declared that at that
25 per cent below the price paid by other coun-
tries.

Bartlett which the Naval Committee last year
said should be purchased for S545 a ton?'
