prOVal of the Secretary of the Interior, and all appropriat ations of water hereto fore or hereinafter allowed for irrigation purposes should be appurtenant to specific tracts of land, and beneficial use should be the basis, the measure, and the limit of the right"
 The people of this Valley certainly owe very great debt of gratitude to the officers of the Interior Department for the clear and determined stand they have taken in regard to this question. Their action gives our people a firm basis on which to build, and assures all who make beneficial use of water on their lands the perpetuity of their right to water sufficient to rrigate said lands, and lodges the actual ''righr' to the water, in the user.
 Thus it will be seen that both Mexico and the United States entertain the same views regarding the ownership of the water rigl-ts, both agreeing that the "right to use the water, is appurtenant to the land, and that MT. Heber's com

with the use of the waters of the lower Colorado river for the irrigation of arid lands in the state of California and the Territory of Arizona, with the view of determining the extent to which the waters of the said stream may be made available for the said purpose through works under the national irrigation act, and by private enterprise, and as to what legislation, if any, is necessary to grant or confirm to present and future appropriators and users thereof, perpet- ual rights to the use of said waters for irrigation"
 As will be seen this resolution called for thorough work, and in the hands of the able and clear-headed men, of which the Reclamation Service is composed, the matter was most carefully and logi- cally considered, and their conclusions embodied in Secretary IIitchcock's re- port, dated January 6 l9O5
 A careful reading of this report shows conclusiyily, that corporations or indi- viduaIs divertng water from the Color

ado river for irrigation purposes will have their rights as common carriers recognized to the extent of the land to which water has been benefciallv ap- piled, the language of the report on this point being 'The settlers upon the arid lands have already put to beneficial use a part of the waters of the Colorado river. The appropriations which they have made should be recognized limited, however, to the extent to which the water has actually been diverted and benefcially used upon lands capable of producing remunerative crops"
 "The waters already put to beneficial use should be devoted to the lands which have been reclaimed, and made appur- tenant to them." "The further appro- priation of water from the Colorado river in Nevada, arizona and California should be allowed only with the ap-

"water stock" charge for water right, but that the right to use the water was appurtenant to the land, and that 50 cents per acre foot was the price to be paid by landowners for water delivered to them for irrigating their land.
 This recognizes the California Devel- opment Company as common carrier of water in Mexico, and subjects them to governmental regulation. While these events were transpiring in Mexico and the Mexican situation was thus becoming clarified, careful investi- cations were being made by the United States Reclamation Service in accord ance with the resolution of congress passed April 28, 1904. This was the resolution that ordered the Secretary of the Interior to "institute an investiga- tion of and report to congress on the various questions involved in connection

 which Mexico has already exercised her authority over by setting the price at which water shall be delivered in Lower California
 To sum up the whole matter, it can be said that the man who irrigates, and actually farms and reclalms his land thereby settles forever all questions as to his water right. There is nothing that can happen that will abrogate or nullify the right he will thus acquire, and we believe that aiy treaty that may be negotiated between Mexico and the United States, concerning the waters of the Colorado river, will only the more firmly safeguard the rights of the Impe- rial irrigators.
 Thus, has good come out of the agita- tion and conflict, and the owners of land in the Imperial Valley been enlightened by what the discussion brought out. It is now more manifest than ever that strict compliance with the desert land act IS the safest course, as well as the most profitable for the settler. Get your land in cultivation; use your water benefcially; reclaim your tracts, and no contingency can arise to in- terlere with your perpetual right to the water to irrigate your land. The things that have been done, \ H ha tul r. tI,ot bn, l.,
 in the past, under the assumption that the stock Tn the mutual water companies, was, in itself, "water rights" are facts of history and must be treated as such. If, under this misapprchens'on, the disposal of the public lands was controlled, by the purchase of the capital stock of
 the Imperial water companies, it can
 be said that with the light then be-
 fore them they were excusa ble.

 that, while leading to abuses and un-
 lawful practices, has enabled develop

 otherwise it might not, and has thus
 contributed directly to the best in-

 The hardship to the genuine settler. who seeing a desirable piece of vacant and, and wishing to possess the same, s told that "Mr. So-and-So" owns the water right on that land, and it would do you no good to file on it, for you never could get water for it" is not % be minimiZed, and there is no doubt hat many very desirable citizens have been kept away from the Valley by the practical workings of this policy.
 1t is not necessary to mention specific ,ases where this outcome has been ap- parent. Every one who came into the Valley during the years from 1900 to 903, heard of lands So cover ed, and even Q the present time there are tracts held n the same way.
 But now, it is clearly shown that tock in an Imperial water company is nly means by which water right an be secured for lands, that said water tOck merely represents ownership in he distributing system of the water company in which it is issued, and that he right to the water to rrigate our

The conces sion from the Mexican government Mir. Heber's company is of such chal acter, and so hedged about with restriC tions as to make it inadvisable for tn government to buy it, and the fact ths there is no law on the statute book authorizing or permitting the expend ture of the reclamation fund outside ( the United States, makes the bringin about of government irrigation by pull chasing the California Developmer Company's property, an impossibilit at the present time.
 Before that great boon can be secure new treaty will have to be negotiate with Mexico, safeguarding the point not covered in the concession, and Con gress will have to enact law author izing the Reclamation Service to act under this treaty.
 This condition of affairs necessarily will delay government ownership for some time; in fact makes it one of the certainties of the future.
 
 It is reported that the Interior Department has asked the State De- partment to take the matter up with Mexico, not only as to the Colorado, but also as to the Rio Grande river, where international complications of even more complex character than ours, have arisen. Looking back over the event of the ptst year one can not but agree that very nbstantial results have been secured as the outcome of the agita- ton concerning Imperial Valleys water supply teyear ago there was much mystery and a very general lack of informt tiOn on practically all of the points involved in the deter | imitation of just what the rights of the various parties were. At that time the California Devel- opment Company's rights were based on contracts with Mexican land owners and the ownership of Mexican lands and were nothing more than riparian ol their nature.
 At that time MT. Heber made al effort to secure the passage of a law b. the United States congress which woul, have given him the complete mastery o the Colorado river. This bill failed, bu as a result the Reclamation Service wa ordered to take up the investigation o the various questions concerned in th use of the waters of the Colorado rive for irrigation.
 MT. Heber theI: transferred his spher of activity to the City of Mexico, wher he was more successful, and on May r. last, he secured the now famous con cession, which greatly strengthened hi right to divert water from the Colorado river, and deliver it to the people of thi Valley.

use any substitute. bat give the old
fashioned castor oil, and e that It
is fresh, as rancid oil nauseates and
has a tendency to grippe. If this
does not check the bowels give
