MARMET NAMING

MaxwelIs Talisman. which has somewhat lost caste
by its opposition to the presidents plan for congressional
regulation of railway freight rates, must sti be given
the palm for its dauntless, indefatigable, and able activ-
iy in the matter of irrigation for The arid regions. In
its latest issue that paper says:
In a recent address Secretary Wilson stated that the
settlement of the Mississippi valley created a home mar
ket which was worth more to the manufacturers of the
United states than the markets of all the rest of the
world. II was their own market and they did not have to
compete for its trade with other manufacturing nations.
If the Mississippi valley with its thirty or forty million
OF inhabitants largely occupying farms of 100, 300, and 500
acres affords the best market in the world, what would be
the reclaimed arid west where irrigation doubles and
trebles the yield and farmers make fortunes out of twenty
and forty-acre tracts? Desert land, when it is provided
with an adequate water supply, jumps in value from a
dollar to a hundred dollars an acre and the created value
of the American desert when irrigated with the food wa
tiers which now run to waste, would be not far from ten
thousand million dollars, a valuation too stupendous for
intelligent conception.
The most remarkable and wonderful feature Of the
irrigation development of the government lies in the fact
that the cost of this great work will all be repaid TO
the government. The first completed national irrigation
work was announced last June-a small patch of $4,000
acres-and it is significant that long before the water
from the big government ditch was turned upon the land,
every acre under 1t had been eagerly taken up by settlers,
in S0-acre tracts, under agreements to repay the govern
ment every dollar expended in the work.

Pittsburg, Pa. Dec. At a con
ference held between the officers
of the Pennsylvania Development
company and Receiver Rinaker.
and former Receiver Cunningham,
representing the wrecked Enterprise
National bank OF Allegheny. an agree
ment was reached as to the money
due to the bank from the Development
company. The sum is said to be over
100000. To secure this it was agreed
that the receiver should exercise a
supervisory power over the operation
of the Santa Fe Central railroad, ex-
tending through New Mexico from Tor.
rance to Santa Fe, that he should
complete the branch now under CON
%struction from Moriarty to Albuquer-
que, to connect with the Santa Fe
railroad, and then If advisable, sell
the entire system. In this manner the
receiver of the bank has hopes of Sc
curing the entire amount due the bank
from the Development company which
built and practically owns the rail
road.

THE MESSAGE

The presidents message appears in this issue of The
Citizen absolutely unabridged and set in our own office.
It is said to contain some 10000 words. ana The Citizen
takes this occasion to say that every word of it deserves
the careful consideration of every intelligent. country
loving American. With the exception of the civil war,
there have never faced this republic graver questions
of a national character than those which now demand
attention of our lawmakers; and upon the manner in
which they meet and discharge their obligations, will
depend the destiny of our country and its growing mil
lions for many ages. President Roosevelt. in his mes
sage, calls the attention of congress to these questions;
and he does so with a wisdom and moderation born of
careful study, large view, able grasp and unprejudiced
conclusion. The American people may well ponder his
words.

Governor Broward. of Florida: am thoroughly in
sympathy with the great national sentiment in favor OF
curbing bribers and bribe takers. have already called
the attention of the law makers of the state to this Grim
inal and ~un-American practice and expect to do so again
IN my message to the next legislature. In my opinion,
these grafters can be best detected and punished by a
strong law. making the practice a felony, and exempting
from punishment, and therefore compelling to testify, the
person who accepts or is offered the bribe, in order that
the greater criminal, the man who has placed the temp
tation in the way of his fellow man, may be certainly
reached and punished. | am strongly in favor of state
insurance control and recommended such a plan to the
last Florida legislature. and will urgently commend it
in my next message to the legislature.

With the president Of the country making joint state
hood a party issue, and saying that there is no obiga-
ton upon us to treat territorial subdivisions, which are
matters of convenience only, as binding us on the ques-
tion Of admission to statehood" with the additional re-
marks that there is no justification for further delay,
and the ACCESSIBILITY of making the four territories into
two states has been clearly established" it begins to
look very much as though the opposition of the corpora

thwart the desires OF the people.

New Mexican: The Office Of United States marshal
for New Mexico is one of the most desirable places
within the gift of the president, and at this time, as far
as known here, there is no telling who the lucky man
will be. AT one time the Office of United States marshal
was of great political power in this territory. This
happily has changed for the better, and outside Of pro-
viding one man and a few Of his friends with good places
the position is not of much consequence to the people
at large. It looks as If the present incumbent c, NJ
