The specific changes that he required
were, first that the Secretary of the In
terror should be empowered to withdraw
from entry all lands proposed to be ir-
rigated, instead of those required for
reservoirs and bitches as provided in the
bill; that no water should be sold or
delivered except to bona fide settlers,
actually living on the land to which the
water was applied was not in
the Newlands billiard that the words
'but state and territory laws shall gov
ern and control the appropriation, use
and distribution of the waters rendered
available under this act" should be
stricken outeas virtually subjecting the
control of federal work to state legisla-
lures, some of which he doubtless be-
lieved, but did not say so, to be unfit to
exercise such a trust, and as certainly
exposing the settlers to the dangers of
endless and ruinous litigation. At the

years to get the government to go into
the irrigation business, but all failed
until President Roosevelt took hold of
the project. In his first annual message
to congress in 1901 he called attention to
the necessity Of providing water for the
arid lands and said: 1.-THE object of the
government is to dispose of the land to
settlers who will build homes upon it.
To accomplish this object water must be
brought within their reach"
The national government S policy, he
pointed out, should be to aid irrigation
in the several states and territories in
such a manner as will enable the people
in the local communities to help them
selves and as will stimulate needed re-
forms ia the state laws and regulations
governing irrigation. He likewise re-
minded the east, which was against this
policy atsthe time, that the reclamation
and settlement of the arid lands will
enrich every portion Of our country just
as the settlement Of the Ohio and Mis-
sissippi valleys brought prosperity tt
the Atlantic states.l,

With his accustomed vigor and intel

to his side, and the national irrigation
law was enacted on June II, 1902 That
law, be it remembered, grew out of hi;
message of 1901, and was enacted by :

To President Roosevelt, therefore, anc
to him alone, is due the fact that there
was any national irrigation at all in that

absolutely protects the poor man ant
renders any large holdings of nationi

YAKIMA BOYS CARRY
OFF HIGHEST HONORS
Beat Regulars and Oregon in Rifle Shoot
ALI but One of victors from
Company E.

The state of Washington triumphed
over Oregon and the regular army in
last weeks competitive rifle contest at
Camp Murray, and won the contest by
the close margin of % points. The
average for each man in the whole three
days shoot was "a 5-24 per cent. which
is a remarkable showing. especially
when you take into consideration the
fact that the winning score made at the
nat ional army match last year was
but 63 per cent. The outcome of the
match demonstrates more forciblv than
ever that the national guard of Wash
ington holds first rank in the whole
United States.
And to think. We readers of The Her
aid, of the II men selected to represent
this state in the rifle shoot, II were
members of Company f and residents

has come to them-and through the
strictest discipline, hard work and I'M

appreciated by the citizens of this COM

state and whcn the boys 20 east to shoot

Extensions.

New York (SpeciaD,-A new bond
issue of $35,ooo,o 70 run 40 years
at not more than 4 per cent, is pro-
posed in a circular to stockholders
issued by the directors of the Norfolk

for the creation of a new mortgage
is requested of the stockholders, who
are called for a special meeting at
Roanoke, Va, on June II to vote on
the proposed new bonds. 1t is de-
clared that there is no intention to
sell any of the new bonds at the
present time, as the cash resources
obtained from the sale of the con-
solidated mortgage bonds and equip
ment trust certificates are ample for
all current needs. The new mortgage,
which is to provide for future capital
expenditures, will be first lien on
the extensions and branches not now
covered by the first consolidated
mortgage and on such extensions and
branches as may be acquired from
the proceeds of these bonds. The

AIRSHIP SAILS OVER SAN FRANCISCO
Successful Flight OF DR.. Greht's Machine
Slight Accident.

San Francisco, (SpeciaD.-Dr. Greth
tried to make a trip of so miles to
San Jose in his airship, but after
travelling about FIVE miles some slight
disarrangement of the machinery was
discovered and the aerial voyager
landed safely. Dr. Greth was ac-
companied by Engineer Frederick
Belcher. DR.. Greth was satisfied with
the results of this experimental fight
because he accomplished good deal
more than on former occasions, and
concluded that he was working in the
right direction.
He assembled at $40 A. NJ, with the
car attached to rope to prevent do
ing damage to houses.
When the rope was cast off DR..
Greth let his machine rise still higher,
and then made a circular figure about
quarter OF mile in circumference.
1t was evident to those below that
he had the machine under control at
that time, for he circled about, stopped
the engines and started them again,
and then started off to the south at
high speed.
Everything went we'll until the air
shrip arrived over Blanken's Six-Mile
House, on the San Bruno road. 1t
was then going rapidly toward San
Jose, but something went wrong with
the machinery, causing the airship to
stop. After the inventor and the en-
gineer had tried to repair the break
the fans were started and the ship
descended.
To all appearances the fans were
controlling the ship, though it was
conceded that they were not powerful
enough to meet the resistance of the
strong wind.
