princely domains have too often

pIluCeiy uO1ndlnS nave TOO often
been acquired.
Again, the very object of the
government in undertaking reclaim
alton would be thwarted, since in
stead of providing many homes for
many families, it would enrich a
few great proprietors. And, finally,
these proprieto1s. as the demand
for land increased with time would
come to the estate and arrogance of
feudal lords dominating a popula-
tlCn Of tenants, which is contrary
to American ideals and policy. The
enormous productiveness of irrigat-
ed farms makes it easy to lease
them On terms profitable to rhe
landlord; and this is very we'll so
long as the tenant may ultimately
buy his holding. But in the case
OF great estates paying heavy re-
turns there would be no chance for
him to buy. The economic condi-
tions, which are breaking up the
bonanza wheat farms in Dakota
and the large cattle ranches in Texas
would not apply to irrigated tracts.
Here the landlords profit would
include not only the normal rent Of
his land, but also the fee for water,
and he would not be likely to sell.
AS to the second difficulty which
the Reclamation Service encounters
that of vested rights of persons al
ready using water. Where the
water supply is limited, an irriga-
tion system cannot be satisfactory
unless all users have the same
rights and are subject to the same
rules. NumDerleSS questions OF
equitable distribution, maintenance
and repairs of bitches, precautions
against waste and the like, cause
dissension and litigation under the
best of systems. Where users from
the same limited source had various
titles to their water the troubles
would be fatal.
Here, then, is a case where the
interest Of private owners comes
squarely in conflict with the inter
est of the public. Which should
give way? The usage of civilized
nations when such a conflict occurs

is long established and invariable.
Napoleon III invoked the right of
eminent domain to construct the
boulevards OF Paris; Manchester in
voked it to condemn and destroy
unhygenic tenements; railroad COM
panies invoke it daily to establish
their rights of way, and cities are
using it more and more to open
parks and Fairgrounds. There is,
therefore, abundant precedent and
c gent reason for the United St ties
Government to confer upon the
Reclamation Service the power Of
eminent domain for the rondemna-
ton of all land and all ter rights
which III any way hinder or limit
the usefulness of President Roose-
velt's benefcent project for the ir-
rigation of arid areas.

Eminent Domain and Irrigation.

Eminent Domain and irrigation.
The project of irrigating arid
land through the public Reclama-
,;on Service, which President Roose-
,.e,t recommended and which Con-
eress adopted, is retarded by two
serious difficulties in addition to
those inherent in the work itself.
One is the reluctance of holders OF
large tracts of land affected by the
nro;ect to meet the Government S
requirement that ownership by one
nerson under a ditch be limited to
,6o acres. The other difficulty
comes from vested rights of land
owners already i'll possession of
water supplies.
From the PRESIDENTS standpoint,
the government requirement is fun
damentally just, since his only OBJ
iect in advocating reclamation was
to provide homes for as many fam
lilies as possible. But the landown-
ers naturally take a different view
of the matter. The difficulty is
serious because the greater part of
all areas which the Reclamation
Service is likely to affect has passed
from government ownership into
private hands and is held in large
tracts. To water these lands at
public expense is not proposed; the
cost of irrigation works. it is ex-
pscted, will be ultimately returned
from the areas benefited. But,
nevertheless, there are three objec-
tions, all serious, TO allowing the
tracts to remain undivided.
For one thing, and this is the
least weishty, though weighty
enough. the large landholder would
receive all enormous benefit in the

neighboring settlements for which
he would make no return. If he

Mr.. Schubert to be 26 miles. The
thoroughness of the work can be
estimated when it is known that in
that distance the river was crossed
$40 times and soundings made each
time, all of which the h> geographic
map will show.
1t took the party five DAYS to
drive overland from Lewiston to
Pjttsburg Landing and the work
O. the river has taken ten days.
Engineer Schubert will leave at
orce for Portland and turn in the
reports of his trip and from these
field notes, photographic maps will
be made and sent to the department
with estimates Of the cost of remov-
lug the obstacles to navigation.
The run from 1mnaha was made
without accident but the river is
very rough in some places. The
toughest water is just at Imnaha
where at this time the breakers are
running about four feet and the
boats in passing through ship
great deal of water. The river is
the lowest ever known and the ra.
pids present some problems for
careful boatmen, but the trip was
made without accident.
The Schubert party received or
ders after reaching Lewiston to
proceed with the crew intact to the
mouth of the Snake river and there
await orders to do some work on
the Columbia from the mouth of
the Snake to The Dalles. Mr..
Schubert will go direct to Portland
and will there no doubt receive in
struCt1Ons for the remainder of the
! work. The crew in the three ba-
teaux left the city Thursday even
ing and will drop down the river
by easy stages till they go into camp
at the mouth of Snake river where
they will await the return of Eng
ineer Schubert. The work to be
done OH the lower river will no
doubt be similar to the work done
above and will be tor the purpose
of enabling the government to make
estimates on the improvements nec-
essary to make the river navigable
in connection with the operation oi
the Dalles-C Cello canal.-Union.
