THE TRUE INWARDNESS.
Judge c. c. Holbrook Gives the People of the Valley
Food for Reflection

Alamosa. Colo. July 10, 1906.
To the People of the San Luis
Valley.
Ladies and Gentlemen; The
day | left Washington, | prepared
and mailed Il report of our work
there, but my time was So limited
that day that some things were
omitted which should be called to
your attention. At the Monte
Vista mass meeting, Messrs. Cloudy
and Tabor and ] We're requested to
go to Washington and make an
effort to obtain revocation of the
departmental order prohibiting the
requirement of rights of way for
bitches. canals and reservoirs on
the public domain. That we did,
with our best efforts. and with the
assistance of Senator Patterson
and Congressman Brooks.
The impression of some that
Messrs. Cloudy and Tabor did not
support the cause for which they
were sent is erroneous. and does
them injustice. They stood shoul-
der to shoulder with me for the
peoples cause.
My application, on file i'll the
department, is for the revocation
of the obnoxious order. If that
shall be granted, it will simply re-
move the barrier for the benefit of
all. and leave those who file for
reservoir sites and rights of way
for bitches Just where they would
have been if the prohibitory order
had never been made. They will
have to push their separate appli.
cations to hearing i'll the depart.
ment by letter, or through the
Congressman or otherwise, and if
their filings do not meet the re
uuirements. they will have tc
amend. Those who are most ener
getic in pushing their application:
to IA hearing will get earliest action
and these facts apply as well tc
those who come in under the mod
ification of the departmental ordel
which was made in May. The!
are now at liberty to push theil
applications. My work was not fol
separate claims. but for the re
moval of the obstruction generally
for the benefit of all the people.
The departmental order does no
prohibit the building of reservoir
and bitches on patented land. Th,
reservoirs on the Alamosa and La
Jara. and the bitches in connection
with them are being constructed
The La Jara chronicle., 1906-07-13

on patented lands. and the govern
ment cannot stop that construction.
If all Others are prevented from
building, it will give these a
monopoly on the part of the valley
which they can cover.
1t is a remarkable coincidence
that Messrs. Braiden and Mieir.
who are said to be largely inter
ested in these two reservoirs, land
in fact, the promoters of the
scheme), are also largely interested
in the Alamosa Courier. which is
discouraging our move. discredit-
ing our work and charging that
our efforts are in tho interest of
some big corportions. If some one
imbued with the spirit which
prompts these scurrilous attacks
and slurs should send copies of
these papers to the department, |
know not what the effect might be
on our struggle for the rights of
the people: and if, at any time, you
find this to have been done, |
recommend that you then get the
facts before the department which
indicate the motive for this
Amalekite attack.
About two years ago, in public
speech in Alamosa. | recommended
such action as would result in an
appropriation for IA government
reservoir on the upper Rio Grande,
but Congressman Hogg. who was
the principal speaker at the meet
ing, told us of Mexico's contention
and of the barrier that had resulted
therefrom.
Senator Patterson told us in
Washington, that if our present
struggle fails of satisfactory results,
he is willing to introduce in the
Senate, at the beginning of the
next Session. such bill as may be
deemed proper to secure the
peoples rights, and make speech
for it; and Congressman Brooks,
who is exerting every effort for the
people in this contest, is willing to
introduce, in the House, any
proper bill, and urge it's passage.
The struggle is on and let it not
down until the peoples rights are
restored, regardless of the bush
whacking from the rear.
Very respectfully,
CHAs. G.. HoLBRooK.
