IRRIGATION THE NEED OF
ROGUE RIVER VALLEY
Government Helping Other Dis
tricts But Not This
Valley.

Editor Courier: As the National
Irrigation Congress meets in Boise,
Idaho, the first Monday in September
it is very necessary that Josephine
county should be prepared to receive
anything good that may be handed ont
to the public.
This congress is to bs composed OF
representatives from all parts of the
West. The government will also be
represented This is the one oppor-
tunity Of the Rogue River country to
get the recognition to which we are
entitled.
Senator Fulton has prepared a
statement Of irrigation expenditures
by the government, in which it is
shown that Orego1 is receiving less
in proportion to public lands sold
than any other state. This, too, in
the face of the fact that our needs are
about as great as those ..of any other
state.
The reason of this discrimination
is plain. We have not urged our
claims as other states have done.
We have given too much attention to
the interests of capitalists and not
enough to the interests of our own
people.
The government officials at this
convention will necessarily gather
such information as will be used in
making disbursements Of reclamation
funds. And IL no one is there tc
present our claims we may expect
to receive no aid.
A careful survey Of our situation
shows that a ditch approximately two
hundred feet above the river at Grants
Pass will irrigste about forty thous-
and acres. This means two million
dollars added to our taxable wealth,
to say nothing of the real comfort to
those who must be cared for in the
future.
We should have at least two dele.
ates at this congress, The entire
expense of each delegate will be about
fifty dollars. The railroad fare is a
few cents over twenty four dollars for
the round trip. The county and city
can we'll afford to send delegate
each. In fact we cannot afford 10
neglect this opportunity.

vor Of the Philippine tariff bill. The
obligations Of the United States to the
Islands provided the theme for an
earnest appeal.

answered that a people cannot b-s fed
on constitutional principles. and that
the Filipinos cannot b. uplifted by this
country unless il was willing Ia aid
them in increasing their productive
conditions. The islands are being used
for the purpose Of improving business
in the United States. he declared. and
he asked where was the justice a guar
dian should show its ward.
Referring to the tobacco and sugar
interests. Secretary Taft said that both
have had the highest kind Of protee-
tion, and that all this fog which had
been created has nothing of substance
in il.
In response 20 injuries to these CROPS,
he said there had been n witness who
feared immediate injury. but that the
eanger il confined to the enormously
exaggerated growth OF these Industries.
