Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1904-10-29

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
resentatives 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 we're framed by him
and received the approval of Western
Senators and Representatives 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 |
it's opponents, and we believe it un-
just and unfair to attempt to deprive
Senator Newlands of the credit of his
craftsmanship.
| STATEHOOD FOR TERRITORIES.
| We aagin demand the immediate
admission os seperate states of Ok
