Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1904-10-14

tie National Irrigation Law. We 90
not deny that President Roosevelt F.,
recommended National Irrigation, but ,
we affirm that long years before he
ever gave public utterance upon the
subject Senator Newlands was de-
voting his time, energy and financial
resources to the work. That under
| his leadership in the House of Rep
resentatives campaign of education
was conducted which shaped the way
{ for National Irrigation; that the es
| sential features of the irrigation OIL
! as finally passed were framed by him
/ and received the approval of Western
Senators and Representative and CT
the committee of the Senate and the
House before Mr.. Roosevelt became
President and the bill was and is
| known as the Newland's Irrigation
Bill and that everywhere it has united
the friends of Irritation and disarmed
its opponents, and we believe it un-
just and unfair to attempt to deprive
Senator Newlands of the credit of his
. craftsmanship.
