rigated.

An irrigation scheme is on foot to
reclaim some waste lands on the beach
back of Empire, on the river.
A Stockton company has entered
the field and secured options and such
rights as will enable them to carry on
their plans. The object of the affair is
to demonstrate the efficiency of a
pump and oil engine manufactured by
the promoters They expect to show
that it is economical and practical to
raise water from the river and flow it
over the lands described. The land it
self is of the best in Nevada and only
requires water to make it extremely
valuable.
The first plant will be sufficient to
reclaim about 300 acres, and after it
is growing good crops the scheme will
be extended, with the ultimate pur-
pose of retaining about 500 acres.
The work is a most important one
and will be watched with great inter
est by all in this section of Nevada
News.

Carson Letter.
ED. COURIER:

ED. COURIER:
All the talk about the part President
Roosevelt took in the secession of Pan
anna from the United States of Colom-
bia is unauthorized railroad rot. The
President took no part in the matter
whatever. The State of Panama seced-
ed, and accomplished her independ-
enee, and established a stable govern
ment, and was Immediately recognized
by the United States and other powers
as an Independent State, and her ac-
credited ENJOYS extraordinary and
ministers plenipotentiary duly receiv-
ed, and that was all that was done.
True, doing it all SO quickly, seems to
have effectively blocked the railroad
bribers who had bought the Colombian
Senate to defeat the passage of any ca
nal treaty that the United States would
accept, but for that the President is
entitled to all praise, instead of GEN.
sure. 1t was no part of the duty of
the United States, under any coustruc-
tion of its treaty with Colombia or
New Grenada, to protect their govern
ment from themselves. Revolutions
are going on all the time, practically,
in Central and South American Re-
publics, and the United States has al
ways let them fight all they pleased,
merely sending war vessel or two to
protect American interests. However,
the civilized world supports President
Roosevelt for his prompt action in ac-
knowledging the independence of the
Isthmians, and no one is a-kicking ex-
cept the trans-continental railroads,
their organs, and those who do not
know enough to know that the Presi-
dent will make votes by his action.
No one but railroad tools in the Unit
ed States Senate will vote against the
ratification of the canal treaty.

in the yards of the Sierra Nevada

about the fifth part oflumber on hand,

of the land irrigated by any stream

the purpose of utilizing the water
power of such stream, and apply that

piled. If it is impossible to get all the
owners of such land into corpora

The electric and power company
that supplies light and power on the
Comstock is composed almost exclu-
sively of uitlanders, and the money
earned by the company leaves the
State and is used to improve other sec
tions. The power is generated on the
Truckee river about 40 miles away
from point of use, and the price eharg-
ed is about 81 per horse power per
month, and is calculated to be about
80 per cent too high. However, the
power is cheaper than the steam power
formerly used, and even cheaper than
obtainable water power The farmers
living on the east and west forks OF
the Carson river should have organic
ed many years ago to land power on
the Comstock from those rivers. They
would thereby have created a market
for their produce, and made their
farms so much more valuable, and
would receive the dividends from the
sale of the power and light. II is not
too late. There is plenty of room foi
opposition in that line on the ComstocB
and at Silver City and Como where
practically inexhaustible bodies of low
grade ore are known to exist. Many
of the leading mining companies OF
the Comstock have signed contracts
with the present company, which they

A great deal is being said and writ
ten about Nevada's need, and what
must be done to increase our popula-
ton faster than by natural growth.
A very general specific enjoined by
the press is ''don't knock" Men with
wallets bullying with worthless stocks
also cry loudly don't knock" Carry
ing out the system, stocks that were
absolutely worthless have been freely
advertised as possessed of immense
value, and all one had to do to get rich
quickly was to get some, and if that
didn't do him any good, he was told
to take some more. Under the system,
men have seen their friends and neigh
bors ''taken inn for few thousand
shares, and they did not dare open
their mouths for fear of being called
"knockers.n 1t is n notorious fact
that men of great prominence and in
fluence in conventions and at court
have unblushingly sold stocks which
they positively knew had no value
whatever and enriched themselves
thereby And the moral condition OF
our times is such that it is called a
shrewd business transaction, instead
of obtaining money under false pre-
lenses. Personally, | do not believe
the State is at all benefited by exagger
ating its mineral or other resources;
fear it is much injured by it. 1t ought
to be injured by it. No liar is entitled
to:any reward for lying.
