Miners in Self Defense
DENVER, June 1.-THE executive
board of the Western Federation Of
Miners today issued a statement re-
garding the situation in Cripple Creek,
in reply to statements by Gen. Sherman
M. Bell and Secretary c. C. Hamlin, Of
the Cripple Creek district Mine Own
ers, association. 1t is as follows:
The cause of the strike of the Western
Federation of Miners in Colorado is one
of long standing and involves the failure
on the part Of mine managers in various
parts of the state to live up to their own
written agreements. AS far back as 1884
as a result of the strikes at that time
the mine owners agreed that eight hours
should constitute a days work; that the
minimum daily wage should be So and
that there. should be no discrimination
against union men in the hiring and dis
charging of labor. At the outset of the
present trouble Manager MacNeil, of the
Standard mill at Colorado City, per-
emptorily discharged forty-f1ve members
of the Western Federation of Miners for
no other reason than that they had be-
come union men. All of these were old
employees
Today the only questions involved are
the enforcement of the eight-hour day,
the right of men to organize in the
unions and to prevent discrimination
against union men of all kinds. The re-
sponsibility for the lawlessness connected
with the contests rests entirely on the
shoulders of the mine operators, the Clt1-
Zens Alliance and their allies, backed up
by the ready power of the state govern
ment.
Cite Authorities
Judges and other leading men are
quoted as having placed the RESPONSE
biIity upon the persons and organiza-
tions named and events of the present
week are cited to justify every accusa
ton against the mine owners, etc. The
statement continues:
Charges that miners are not allowed to
vote on questions of strikes are utterly
absurd. According to the constitution or
the Western Federation of Miners, it is
absolutely impossible for the executive
board to call a strike of its own volitiOn.
The present strike is the result Of the
direct vote of the unions Of the district.
which left them entirely in the hands of
properly delegated authorities for ad-
justment and settlement.
Absolutely no deaths have occurred dur
ing the contest for which the Western
Federation of Miners can or ought to be
held responsible. Some fifteen men were
killed In the Stratton Independence mine
through the incompetence of the men
employed %and the culpable negligence of
the management. We are opposed to the
unbridled military deSpotiSm that is driv-
ing our members from pillar to post.
Their fortitude under the circumstances
is a marvel of the age and shows that

WATER STCRAuc is NEEDED
Great Necessity for Successful Irri
cation

SaIiOn.
WASHINGTON. W c., Jan. 10
The second annual report of the irri-
cation reclamation service, under the
charge of Frederick H. Newell, has
been issued Ii states construction has
been begun in Arizona and Nevada
on two great irrigation projects which
will reclaim several hundred thous
and acres of fertile land. Numerous
other projects will be taken up. By
the end of the year there will be some
thing like $24OOO00O in the reclama-
ton fund.
The general idea expressed in the
report is that the irrigation law can
be worked out to advantage.
/ One of the most important matters
in connection WI -- the permanent de-
velopment Of the water resources OF
the country is saiu to be the protec
ton OF the catchment basins. The
headWaters OF many important
streams are already included within
guarded from injury. Their bounda-
ries should include the country from
which comes the principal part of the
rainfall. This land usually has no
value for cultivation.
Projects Under Consideration.
The government has been consider
ing irrigation possibilities in Idaho.
The southern portion of Idaho, par
ticularly along the Snake river. offers
some of the best opportunities for re-
clamation in the United States" said
F. II. Newell, the national hydro
grapher. There are vast tracts of
arid land along this river which could
be transformed into great farming
communities through the storage of its
waters"
One project selected for special study
is the Mud Lakes undertaking. 1t is
believed 200, 900 acres can be reclaimed
through canal heading on the North
Fork of the Snake river, near ST. An
thony.
The Minidoka project contemplates
the reclamation of about 10000 acres
on both sides of the Snake river south
of the Oregon Short Line railroad. The
Snake is to be damned but the water
cannot be raised sufficiently high to
get it out on to the best lands. Water
for $4,000 acres is to be provided from
at the head waters of the Snake, util-
izing Lakes Jackson, Two Ocean, En-
ma, Matilda and Jennie, all of which
have been set aside for reservoirs.
For the Payette Boise work near
Boise, Idaho, the Payette river on the
north will furnish a large supply Of
water. much of which now goes to
waste. 1t it believed expensive tun-
nelng will be necessary, but when re-
claimed the lands will be of high value.
Would Help North Dakota.
Government engineers have been
active IN studying the irrigation posi-
bilities in Montana in addition to the
great Milk river project. South of the
Milk river, a general reconnaissance
has been in progress along the Sun
river, the Musselshell river, and the
mouth of the Yellowstone. 1t is believ-
ed that lands can be reclaimed in
eastern Montana and adjacent portions
of North Dakota by diverting the
waters of the Yellowstone river on the
north bank of Montana.
