NATIONAL IRRIGATION.

The whole scheme for national irri.
CATION Is most tcrsely and lucidly
stated in the following very brief
statement from George NJ. Maxwell
of the National Irrigation association
There are 100, 000, 600 acres of IN.
rigable public lands.
They reed storage reservoirs TO
make them available as homes.
Let the government build the great
reservoirs and main line canals nee.
essary - make water available for
these ir.igable public lands.
Let the cost of such work be added
to the cost of the lands to be repai |
to the government by the settlers in
ten or twenty instruments, without in
crest.
Give tae settler at least two years
time in which to get started before
he is called upon to make any pay
ment.
Reserve the land for which water Is
thus made available for actual set.
tiers only. who will go on the land and
cultivate IL and build permanent
homes there.
II is necessary that the government
should build the works requiring cap.
ital: IL car leave the settlers to con.
struct aLd dig the smaller canals.
which they can do without capital.
Whenever the settler who goes upon
the public land today. or In the future.
can set his pillow in the ground and
have the water follow the furrow. then
the opportunities will have been crea-
ted when will be seized upon by mil
lions of industrious men to create
prosperous homes In what today Is an
arid wilderness,

WALKING Al lAMY.

The people of Santa Fe who go any
where expect to spend a large portion
of their time at Lamy junction.
This Is what has caused the people
of the Capital City to have that pa
tient look and tired feeling. Having
TO spend Sc much time at Lamy they
do not have opportunity to build side
walks or paint their houses.
They have become adopts in profan.
ity and these who ride on passes are
the moro proficient, all because OF
waiting a. Lamy for a train, which Is
always late and generally gets along
some timO in the night.
A scientific investigation shows that
the uncertainty Of trains at Lamy
costs the Santa Fe company 81 900 900
annually The loss Is primarily
caused by excessive profanity at
Lamy. Oaths being heavier than noun
tain air. the mass of assorted profan.
ity settles at the head of Apache can
yon and this causes the air to become
foul and creates iioodh and washouts
and heayy damage to the railroad com
pany. Tho only way to prevent this
state of aflairs Is for the railroad com
pany to build "A new line from Las
Vegas to Santa Fe or to arrange In
some way to keep the trains on time
at Lamy.
In the past twenty years there has
been SO much profanity at Lamy on
account Of the delayed trains that the
juniper trees on the adjacent hills
have become stunted from the hot all
