1t is probably true that Senator Frye
is with Senator Hale against tariff
revision. And they are equally rehe-

and Frye agree and they represent ex-
actly the Maine sentiment. This
State stands pat on the policy which
has given IL. along with the rest of the
country, the greatest prosperity it ever
knew. 1t wants neither tariff re-
vision nor Canadian reciprocity.

Admiral Dewey is not to be blamed
for declining to be member of the ar
bitra,ion commission which is to act
upon that North Sea incident. where

fishing boats. 1t Is probable that to
the American member Of the commits
sion would fall the thanklcss task Of
casting the deciding vote. with the re-
suit that his attitude would be most
displcasing either to his British or his
Russian friends. 1t may be that the
role of reacemaker is blessed. but it
often results in an Inheritance of
curses rather than of the earth. rs

Admiral Dewey enjoys well-earned
repose. and he would be foolish to ex-
change his dignity and ease for such a
thankless task as was offered him.

the work intended by merely listening to papers, but that the delegates should discuss the different subjects placed before the congress and bring out all potent points. Necessarily, the general review was limited, owing to the number of papers yet to be heard, but it was earnest and animated, en- bracing irrigation methods, cultivation of sugar beets, the commercial aspect of the country, labor and capital con ditions, government protection against floods, and kindred topics.
 The first addresG-of today's session was made by C. B. BOothe, of Los An geIes, Cal, chairman of the board of the National Irrigation association, OF
 'The Responsibility of the New West to the Nation" MT. Boothe said in part:
 The people of the whole country are only just beginning to realize the truth that in many of the western states ana territories there is a vast amount Of arid national domain which. though dry and reproductive, has soil of fabulous richness and, if irrigated. would become source of untold wealth.
 "The fact is now realized by most Of
 the intelligent leaders of the nation that the desert land act has proved a failure in its operation and ought to
 be repealed without delay. The great ness of the west, its opportunities and | its privileges, ought to make. and has
 made, strong, sturdy, intelligent, hope ful and enterprising men. You can find in the reclaimed arid lands com
 munities that will bear favorable com parison with any of the union. I ask
 the leaders and the people Of the west
 if such an empire, with such potential ities, is not worthy of their highest endeavor and most patriotic devotion" :"
