the few at the expense of the many.
 Second. There is another class politicians-who favor this program for two reasons; one is because in so doing they cater to a popular public sentiment that will keep them in power. and another reason is, that being in power, there are opportuni- ties to so manage the public trusts as to make large quantities of hay for themselves while the sun is shining.
 While there is a distrust among many people as to the advisability of placing in the hands of elected off cers the management of so great financial concerns, still in other coun- tries the governments do own and manage railroad. telegraph, water, gas and similar companies controlling public utilities and it is somewhat humiliating for an American citizen to confess that our people are not just as honest and just as competent to manage such affairs in the United States as they are under the English government or any of it's colonial pos sessions. or in Germany, France, or even Russia. We have confidence in the American people and we firmly believe that they can successfully manage large public enterprises.
 It is true that here in California ir- rigation systems have been built and successfully managed by private par ties, notwithstanding the fact that it has been done under system of crude laws that are anything but com plimentary to the intelligence of our people. And still in doing this work,
Imperial press and farmer., 1902-02-01

has produced bountifully of crops planted.
 Seventh. That expert ranchers. ac- customed to arid lands are entirely satisfied with quality of soil. character of climate and quantity of water sup piled. ..,.,l
 Eighth. That the government land laws are being fully sustained by the colonizing company operating in the Imperial settlements, and as a rule are being faithfully enforced
 Ninth That the largest irrigated section in the United States is being annexed to California
 Tenth. That these lands under the Imperial Canal System are being se- cured by practical ranchers for their own use and by shrewd business men who are known to be conservative in their business operations
 Eleventh. That the leading news papers of Southern California have carefully examined and endorsed the enterprise, and
 Lastly. That the people who are To- eating and investing in lands under the Imperial Canal System are doing so after a most careful personal in- vestigation of the land and water and all the conditions under which the settlement is being built.

porate management, that forces upon the powers that be the necessity for action. It is this work by private corporations that is educating the people.
 In this country. the people lead and the government follows. In Russia the government leads and the people fol low as matter of necessity.
 Southern California has been changed from a desert to garden by private enterprise. This great work has been done while experimenting with the law and with the courts. Today no lawyer can safely advise his clients on many points connected with the irrigation laws.
 One thing has been definitely set tied and that is, that the mutual water system is the best one known to our laws, and it will continue to be the best system until the United States government takes hold of the irriga- tion question and forces the several States in the arid region to remodel their State laws, and pull into line in harmony with the governmental sys- tem-whatever that may be.
Imperial press and farmer., 1902-02-01

by private capital, the question arises why cannot an additional twenty million acres of arid land be trans formed by private capital into pro- ductive irrigated farms? In other words, why should it be necessary to ask any government assistance for the development of the West? It is admitted that irrigation pays; that larger, better and surer crops can be raised under it than by dependence upon the elements, and that irrigat- ca communities are as a rule very prosperous ones. Nor can 1t be said that any project is really too large or requires too much capital for private enterprises to undertake, provided it offers a sure profit or certain in come on the investment. Why, then, will not the arid States have grad ual and healthy development through the continued establishment of irri- gation systems and the building of ir- rigation dams by private capital seeking investment?
 The tendencies of the times are to have the government own, maintain and manage all public utilities, and there is no doubt but that in time this policy will be pursued by the law making and law-eXecuting powers.
 There are two elements among the people working to this end and very few working against it.
 First. There are the honest masses of the people who believe that the government could manage these en- terpriees in way to give the people water, gas, electricity, telegraph and telephone service, fares and freights, etc, at cost price, thus saving mil lions to the people annually, instead of having these profits go to enrich
Imperial press and farmer., 1902-02-01

there has been more friction than there should have been, and more friction than there would have been, had the system of laws governing water rights and managing the same been based on a more solid founda- tion.
 The change from private ownership of irrigation systems to public own ership must necessarily be slow one. Such a change means peaceable revolution so far as this question is concerned and the people must be gradually educated up to such change.
 Let the government make start, but when it commences a work of such magnitude, it should have it's plans fully matured and no beginning should be made until those plans are fully matured.
 There was no better place for the government to show what could be done than in the reclamation of the Colorado Delta. The fact that the water to irrigate that delta must be taken from a river in the United States and then taken for sixty miles through foreign territory, was in it. self a very powerful reason why the government should do this work. But the government was not ready; it is not ready yet. What should be done? Must the American people sit still un- til the government gets ready to act? If it did, the government would never get ready. It is the necessities of the case, developed by private cor

by the courts and pronounced consu- tutional by the United States Supreme Court. All doubtful points have been adjudicated by the State Supreme Court. The Imperial Press claims that conscienceless spectators have tried to bring this law into disrepute. The courts are always found supporting vested rights. or there would be no cap italists found ready to invest in bonds and thereby assist in the development view.

The presentation Of the drama
"Hazel Kirke" at the Normal Sat
urday night was an event Of more
than ordinary Importance, it being
the reunion of the Callepian Society.
The disagreeable weather kept many
people away, but still a good sized
audience was present. Great care
had been exercised in giving the
parts out, and the finished manner
in which the play was given proved
the wisdom of the selections made.
The piece is one of deep heart inter-
est and intensely dramatic. The
climaxes aroused the enthusiasm of
the audience and recognition of the
work of the performers was made
with good spirit Unfortunately
there was great delay in starting
and as a result it was within few
minutes of midnight when the enter
tainment was over.
