Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1904-10-30

claim that President Roosevelt Vss
the main factor in the enactment ~
to National Irrigation Law. We a.
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 campaign of education
was conducted which shaped the way
for National Irrigation; that the es-
sential features of the irrigation Oil
as finally passed were framed by him
| and received the approval Of Western
Senators and Representatives and Of
the committee of the Senate and the
| House before Mr.. Roosevelt became
| President and the bill was and is
known as the Newlands 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.
