Men and women need something to
love and something to hope for, says
Edward Markham in the Pilgrim. But
under this love and this hope lies the
bread and butter question = terribly
practical and terribly persistent. And
under this bread and butter question
lies a right as old as the world and as
deep as life itself-the right to work.
Every man has a right to express in
art and craft the ideal of his heart
the JOY of his soul.
If men and women could be assured
of labor to the end, of labor under hui
name conditions, labor assuring a suf-
ficiency and a little leisure-if the fam
inc of to-day and the fear Of tomorrow,
twin terrors, could be lifted from life
how much of the fret and care of the
heart would be smothered out; how
much of the despair and grief of the
world would be washed away; how
much dishonesty, how much disease,
how much suicide would disappear
from the ways of mani
Perhaps no other one thing would do
so much to make men and women
happy; and to make people happy is
to make them good.

A London paper tells story of Wag-
ner in the days of his youth and power
ty calling upon Rossini in Paris and
noticing "a little composition" of his
own on the piano rack. The reply of
Rossini when it was pointed out to him
that the music was upside down was
perhaps hardly up to the best form of
''the polite Frenchman." you see, l
found it sounded better that way"
Bill Nyes compliment to Wagner
was in a happier vein. He told the
great composer that he had no doubt
his music was really much better than
1t sounded.-London Speaker.

Newlands ON Irrigation.
OF DOUGLAS COUNTY.

On the 18th ult. MIR. Newlands de-
1ivered in the house of representatives
the most elaborate and comprehensive
speech upon the subject of irrigation
that has ever been presented in either
branch of congress, or any other as
semblage having that subject under
consideration. 1t fills over ten pages
of the Congressional Record and not
only touches upon every argument,
lpro and con, heretofore adduced, but
Embraces a multitude of points never
before presented by any advocate of
TIE national water storage system. It's
length precludes our presenting even
such an outline Of the speakers re-
marks as will give the reader an idea
of their comprehensive scope or of the
time and labor expended by our repre-
sentative in investigation of the sub
iect of such Importance to the. resi-
dents of the arid and semi-arid sections.
As the bill was expected to come up
within few weeks, and as the limited
time allowed for it's discussion would
not per nit extended debate, Mr.. New
lands took time by the forelock, and
BY permission, addressed the house
upon the subject at the date above
mentioned.
In the commencement, the speaker
corrected the somewhat prevalent inn
thing, and explained that it was as old
as time, giving history of it's origin,
progress, and a statistical statement of
the acreage it renders productive at
the present time in the different quart
ers of the globe. He gave the bound
aries of the arid land region in the
United States, which contains about
100000, 900 acres of vacant public land
of which 60, 100000 may be irrigated if
the water supply is conserved and dis
tributed. Mr.. Newlands explained
elaborately, where and how irrigation
is practiced; its success in it's small
scope resulting from private enter
prise, and the possibilities under the
larger scale of national aid and develop
ment. He showed conclusively that
unlike other appropriations for internal
improvement, the money for the recla-
nation of public lands instead of being
a donation from the public treasury,
that no direct or indirect loss wouldbe
sustained by the government, as the
cost would be covered by the sale of
the public lands, the proceeds of which
would go into special fund in the
treasury.
The objection, that land values in
the east would be lessened by opening
up so large an area to cultivation, was
met, by statistical statement of the
increasing population of the country,
and showing that the population of the
country, and the possibility of the in
crease of the acreage of cultivatable
land by irrigation or any other means,
was not proportionate to the increased
demand there would be for land for
agricultural purposes. There are also
immense areas of public land fitted for
grazing purposes, now useless to the
stock raisers, from their remoteness
from water, which would find purchas-
ers when that objection was removed.
Immediate action, by the government,
was urged, as every year, increased
vested rights, which would clog more
and more the progress Of national en-

terprise.
Mr.. Newlands quoted freely from
that part of President Roosevelt's mes
sage which related to the irrigation
question, showing that favorable legis
lative action would be approved by the
executive head of the government. He
showed that the system of storage of
superfluous water would lessen the
torrential and damaging flow in large
rivers at certain seasons OF the year.
The constitutional objection was met
by pointing out numerous things that
had been done by the government, not
expressly authorized by the constitu
tion but which came within the general
power of that instrument, especially
the power to promote the public well
fare. The constitutional question the
speaker argued at considerable length,
and in our layman's opinion, placed
beyond possible question the irriga-
ton measure within the limits of the
fundamental law.
Referring to the alleged danger of
injurious competition with existing
farms in the east and west, the speaker
said it might as well be contended that
the people of the thirteen original
States suffered from western develop
ment, as that the SO, 100000 people now
of this country, will suffer from the de-
velopment of the arid region. Since
the beginning of the nineteenth century
the government has disposed of over
1000, 900, 900 acres of public lands, and
has thus developed the great States of
the south and west. The area proposed
to be developed is only equal to that of
the two States of Iowa and Illinois.
The problem of demand and supply
was argued and the fallacy of the idea
that the cession of the public lands to
the different States would produce the
same results as national system of
irrigation and would relieve the federal
government of great work. The
water sheds are seldom, if ever, en-
braced in a single State, and complica-
tions would arise which would prevent
any systematized method Of water
storage, which objection would be re-
moved by the proposed national meas
ure.
The speaker closed with elaborate
quotations from the president of the
National Irrigation Association, Secre-
tary Wilson of the Department of Agri-
culture, Col. Horace M. Chittenden, of
the United States engineering corps,
General Miles article on "Our I'm
watered Empireh and numerous other
authorities on the irrigation question,
all of whose ideas were in perfect har-
mony with the measure which would
shortly come before the house for con-
sideration and disposal. Reno Journal.
