Reclamation Work to Begin at Once

The Secretary of the Interior. ON the
recommendation of the Geological Sur
vey. has granted authority for the ac-
quisition Of the necessary property,

construction of the irrigating works
on the Truckee River and four projects
in other States.
The action Of the Secretary Of the
Interior granting authority for the ne

toward putting into practical operation
the provisions of the National Irriga-
ton law, passed al The last session OF
Congress and to which Nevada's sena-
tor, Hon. Francis G. Newlends, has
devoted himself for the past two years.
1t is unquestionably due to him more
than to any other one man that the
law, which means SO much to the arid
States Of the west, il nov an accom-
plished fact. Ttis a source OF gratifi-
cation as well that Nevada should be

of her energetic representative.
M Newlands did not rest with the
simple passage Of the irrigation law,
but ever since has labored to bring
conditions in this State - suea posi-
ton that Nevada would be enabled 10
secure the earliest possible benefits.
To this end he urged the passage OF
enabling laws and the adjudication Of
existing water rights under the old
regime, ana as a result, as shown
above, The first practical work under
the law will be done in Nevada. The
investigations Of the Geological Survey
have demonstrated that the Traakee
River presented fower engineering DIFF
+ fieulties than any Of the four Nevada
systems, and hence has been chosen as
the initial point for operations Jour
nal.
