Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1904-10-13

the main FACTOR IN the enactment W
tie National Irrigation Law. We 90
not deny that President Roosevelt
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
resent atiyes a campaign Of education
was conducted which shaped the way
( for National Irrigation: that the es-
sential features of the irrigation OIL
IS finally passed were framed by him
and received the approval Of Western
/ Senators and Representatives and Cf
! 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 W.
! just and unfair to attempt to deprive
( Senator Newlands of the credit of his
! statesm anship.
