F. S. Webster, the Independent candidate for supervisor in this district, started out this week to visit the various sections of the Valley aud meet the people whose suffrage he seeks. He has not been able, owing to press of duties on his large farm, to get around to see the people previous to this time, but he has arranged his farming operations so that from now till election day he can devote his time to his cam vass. Mir. Webster is one of the representative farmers of this Valley and is in no sense capit- italist or speculator. Coming here three years ago from Los Angeles he bought the tract of land where he now lives. 1t was raw land then and had never had a lick of work done on it. It's present splendid improvements are all the work of F. s. Webster and the excellent ranch that it is eloquently testifies to the sound judgment, foresight and hard work of its owner. Mir. Webster is well qualified by experience and business training to fill the office of supervisor and besides that is a man of clean morals and exemplary habits. The people of this district will honor them selves and fully safeguard their interests by electing him to the office he seeks. They can be absolutely certain that no cor porate influence will sway his ac- tion or "blind pig push" dictate his course.

 rapidly reviving from a period of depression that has coveted the entire past two years. The cause or causes of this depression was not far to seek. The crux of the matter has been 'the water Sltu- ation" so called, and the one thing that destroyed confidence and paralyzed the hand of prog Fess was the fact that the water supply for this Valley was not under control. This fact all will .coucede. When 1t comes to fix iug or attempting to fix the blame for this condition, there IS at once two opinions. One opin- iDn and the one by far the more largely held, attributes the fail ure to control the water or rather to keep it under control to the evil doings, stupidity, graft and vena1ity of the old management of the California Development company. The other opiDion of rather contetition seeks to excuse these people for their actions and tp cast the odium upon the Unit ed States Reclamation Service, who, they assert, attacked the : water claims of the California Development Co. and prevented their carrying out their enter prise. These people bob up from time to time with the hackueyed whine that the Reclamation Ser vice is opposing the develop rnent of the Valley" and intimate that the people here ale in dang CT of being robbed by the United States government. The only reason we can see for their doing this is to try and cover the tracks of the culprits whose perations were directly responsible for the conditions which obtained in this Valley during the past two years. In this connection we wish to state that the Reclamation Ser vice stands so much higher in public. estimation than any pri- vately owned irrigation scheme, that an attack on the ReClama- tion Service on behalf of such a scheme IS the very worst kind ot a knock that could be administer ed to such scheme. The publiCa- tion therefore, of the statement that the Reclamation Service is opposing the development of this Valley or seeking to retard our progress IS the very worst knock that could be given us. The general public will at once con- clude that we are in the wrong and that our Valley should not be developed until the wrong is righted. The facts, however, are just the reverse of those giv- en by the apologists for the old California Development Go. man agement as all know who are at all familiar with the events of the past three years. The Rec lamation Service did NOT sttack the water claims of the Califor- mia Development Co. They only advised against the passage of the Daniels bill when it was

outcome of the hearings before the committees of congress, the
 Secretary of the Interior was called upon for a report on the use of the waters of the Lower Colorado for irritation and to de- fine the extent to which such wat CTS could be used for such pur- pose, by private appropriators, corporations and the Reclama- tion Service. In this report the secretary not only did NOT dis criminate against the California Development company, but rec ognized their diversions of water and suggested regulations under which these diversions could be protected and EXTENDED. Aud the regulations he suggested were that the water thus diverted be delivered to users withih the United States on land capable Of being profitably farmed, that the water right be made appurtenant to the lands on which the water is used aud beneficial use made the basis, the measure and the limit of such water right. Also,
 that the company be required to install safe headgates tor the di- version of the water from the rlv- CT. Now, wherein is there any ATTACK on the California De- velopment company in that re- port? And wherein does that re- port fail to protect and safeguard the interests of the settlers in this Valley? But the California Development company wanted to claim the absolute ownership ot the water and to sell only the right to RENT the water. This RIGHT TO RENT water to be evidenced by stock certificates and the use or non-use of the water to have no bearing on the matter whatever. Seeing this operation could not be carried out under the United States laws this corporation went to Mexico and there secured a concession that enabled them to carry 1t out so far as the contracts were con- cerned. But in doing this and in moving the point of water di- version to Mexico the company got beyond where there was any foundation on which to build di- version works. And our readers are familiar with the disasters which have followed. Now, how ever, that the trouble is being remedied and the water will soon be under control and forced to follow its old channel to the Gulf and will not be permitted to again damage this Valley, we believe it were we'll to take full cogniz- ance of this fact. There is noth- ing gained by the friends of the old California Development com- pany management when they try to make it appear that the Rec lamation Service is unfriendly to the development of this Valley or that they have ever treated the California Development com pany unjustly. That they refus- ed to consent to a water monopo- ly is to their credit and that they insisted upon the enforcement of the law is also commendable. 1t was the attempt of the old Cali
