Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1906-09-05
rHr lRr1eAriok coNeRFss.

The proceedings OF the fourteenth
annual convention of the National r.
rigatioh congress show that reclams-
ton OF dry lands has now fairly en-
tered the practical stage. Progress in
irrigation had been made for decades,
but it was slow and local and limited
by many distractions. IL became truly
national and practical only when con-
gress, two years ago. took vigorous
hold of the subject providing re-
sources aggregating $41,0OO.O00 for
treating it on an adequate scale. The
surveys and works for storing waste
water, together with carefully elab-
Grated system OF laws providing for
titles and homes in the reclaimed dis
tricts, are now beginning to bear fruit
and to afford to the general public q
more definite idea of the immense pos
sibilities of the movement.
For the first time the deliberations
of the congress have to do with ac-
tual irrigation results in tangible and
assured form, and not merely with
the speculations and theories which
however plausible, did not appeal SO
directly and potently to the average
comprehension. The rapidity of irri-
cation development the last two years
has been remarkable and the publicity
secured through the congress will i'm
part a corresponding impetus to this
form of enterprise. The occupation of
the land in the region of abundant
rainfall and the recent abrupt rise Of
land values therein are at the same
time causing a pressure for the arti-
ficially watered areas which only a
few years ago would have been incon-
ceiyable

THE WAY TO WIN.

Immediately after the disaster
which overlook the republicans of
Omaha in their municipal election last
spring The Bee set about to unity the
party in this city and county with
view to assuring republican success in
the fell. At that time The Bee read
those on both sides of the factional
fence several unpalatable lessons
which, nevertheless, constituted moth
ing but the hard truth. We insisted
that out of the bitter defeat some good
might come for the republicans of
Omaha and Douglas county. IF out of
the wreckage of this election they will
rise up and get together fer the sake
of the future of the party"
We repeat now what we said then,
that Omaha is republican by normal
majority of not less than 1900 and
Douglas county is republican by nor
NAL majority of about the same size.
To poll this vote, however, requires
that all republicans pull together and
of clean, honest men and truly rep
resentative of all by whose votes it
must be elected. AS the first pre-
requisite to success. the idea must be
repudiated Of foisting a ticket on the
party composed exclusively of men,
bers of any ironclad club chosen in
secret conclave by self-appointed slate
makers and Of taking the party man
agement away from the regularly
elected party committee.
That disastrous defeat also demon
strated the folly of any faction Of To-
cal republicans depending for success
upon the aid and comfort of the local
democratic organ, whose only object
is to foment dissension among repub-
licans and bait one faction against the
other in order to promote democratic
ascendency.
Douglas county republicans are
again In front OF an impending cam
paign eliminating in an election upon
which much will depend. II those who
are looked to to take the leadership
will proceed on broad gauge lines to
harmonize all the elements behind a
really representative ticket, reasona-
BILE prospect of success can be assured.
If not, we will see again simply a
scramble for Office, with danger of re-
reating in part, If not in whole. the
humiliating experience of last spring.

Edward Rosewater was one of the most
highly respected newspaper men OF the
United States. He has had large ability
and character to match. His interest in
many directions filled his life with activi-
ties beyond the average of men, even in
his own profession
Journalism was the business OF Mr..
Rosewater, but politics was his passion.
He made the greatest success in his BUSH
ness but suffered the keenest disappolnt-
ment in his ambition to gain a seat in
the United States senate. His career in
that respect recalls that OF Horace Gree
ley, who could do almost anything, even
in politics, except TO win place for him
self as a statesman in Office
Few men in the newspaper profession
were personally more beloved than Mr..
Rosewater. The years OF his busy life
were crowded with acts of kindness and
of sympathy. They were as common as
words OF praise. He made SCORES OF repu-
tations for other men and always sought
rather to build than TO pull down an OPP
ponent. He was generous OF time and
money and newspaper space to advertise
the welfare of his own city and state.
Public spirit was as natural 10 him as
to breathe. Coming to the land OF lib
erty and opportunity as he did he never
forgot the high privilege of public ser
vice in unpaid places.

MAKING WASTE PLACES BLOOM.
Changes wrought by Irrigation II
the West.
Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Cleveland Plain Dealer.
When the first national irrigation con-
gress was held a dozen years or so ago,
the most sanguine friends Of the reclama-
tion project could hardly have foreseen the
progress which this great national under
taking has made since first the dirt was
made to fly" The current years congress
is in Boise, Idaho, a state which furnishes,
perhaps, an unmatched object lesson in this
work of retaining the arid lands of the
west, and also of the Industrial possibilities
which the scheme contains, and which are
already in process of development. For
example when the Shoshone Falls power
undertaking shall be completed II will pro-
vide more electrical units than Niagara
now does or ever WILL II, as lie hoped
the Industrial raid on the cataract has been
checked.
At the time OF the passage Of the irriga-
tIon act in 1902 IL was claimed that II would
increase the country's wealth by 5000 ooo.-
Ooo.. Be that as 1t may the results actually
accomplished In four years are sufficiently
impressive. and the work is only fairly
under way. Nearly 100000 acres OF once
arid land are under cultivation, and the
government has in hand now 800 600. 900
which is believed will reclaim 100000
acres more while plans for the irrigation
of 100000 OF these are completed.
There are signs that the enthusiastic ir-
rigation boomers, who are to meet next
week are not, however. satisfied with the
present rate of progress, for II Is proposed
to demand an appropriation OF 500. 900. 900
to supplement the fund in hand. This re-
calls the demand of years ago that the
work should be paid for by direct appro-
priation. This was generally and resolutely
opposed by the states which did not expect

NOT LIABLE FOR CUBAN DAMAGES

NOT LIABLE FOR CUBAN DAMAGES.
A mere reading of the Plat amend
ment, it would seem, should have pre-
vented false notion which has been
widely entertained, namely, that the
United States, should Cuban disorder
go to lengths requiring Intervention,
would be responsible for the losses in
fiicted upon natives and foreigners
who had remained neutral between the
government and the insurgents. Abb
solutely no such responsibility exists
or is likely to be assumed under the
terms or the spirit of the compact,
which states 1t to be the purpose of
the United States to intervene for the
maintenance OF a government adequate
for the protection OF life. property and
individual liberty" our government
being sole Judge of the occasion, ex-
tent and methods. of Intervention.
1t is established that Cuban malcon-

and that somehow such interference

resulting either in oVerthrowing ex-

a large extent the amazing indifference
of property owners. both natives and
foreigners resident in the island. to the
guerrilla outbreak, because they ex-

Discovery of the error is already be-

WALSH AND HEARST.

The resignation of Charles A. Walsh,
the Iowa member Of the democratic
national committee, on the ground, as
he alleges, that that body has departed
so far from democratic ideals that he
can no longer associate with 1t. taken
in connection with other circumstances,
is exciting keen interest In political
circles generally. Walsh is known to
hold the closest confidential relations
with William r. Hearst, whose inter
ests and Vaccinations he specially rep
resented two years ago in the west, sue
ceeding particularly in manipulating
the Iowa delegation to the st. Louis
convention and deliberately organizing
Hearst sentiment In other western
states.
There is, accordingly. much plausi-
bility in the expectation that Walsh's
resignation foreshadows an arduous
and persistent effort to extend in the
west the Independent Hearst move
ment which has been so carefully or
ganized in New York with view to
nominating Hearst for governor, as it's
first step, by the democratic conven-
ton II possible, but otherwise as an
Independent candidate. The attitude
of Hearst and the whole syndicate of
Hearst newspapers towards Bryan upon
his home-comingA practically contra
vening the significance which the
Bryan promoters attribute to it, di-
rectly points, as it is universally in
terpreted, towards an independent
course on the part of the New York
marplot. and 1t is not at all unlikely
that he and his advisers foresaw or
calculated that the Bryan demonstra-
ton would in the end weaken rather
than strengthen the central figure in
the tableau and have formed their
schemes accordingly.
