of inestimable value, being wasted,
used by private persons for pri
vate enterprises and in utter dis
regard OF the rights of the public.
1t found that otwithstanding the
laws and the constitutions these !,
natural resources had, many OF
them, already been seriously i'm
paired-rights granted SO valu-
able that no man can accurately
estimate their value, taken from
the hands of the public without
one dollar consideration ever
having been paid therefor. 1t
found thousand upon thousand OF
acres of the public domain, graz
ing lands. timbered lands, mineral
lands, in the hands of private en-
terprises and persons who OBJ
tanned their titles by fraud, in
utter disregard of the provisions
of our federal statutes. 1t came
in, revived the law by putting it
in operation to protect the forest
and water supplies and announced
that the government held these
national resources as a trustee for
all the people. and that no man
was entitled to their use without
paying reasonable compensation
therefor, that no individual or en-
terprise had right to use them
in such a manner as to perma-
nently impair their value or waste
their natural energies. 1t has
carried OH that policy with a firm
and steady hand. 1t has met op-
position. it is true. here and there.
but in the main, Mr.. President,
the heart of the American people
was right and supported and still
supports the policy. That policy
of the national administration
has been growing more effective,
but should be extended to protect
all national resources, and | trust
that before this national irrigation
congress adjourns it will take
some action on this question of
the grazing on the public domain.
1t is so intimately related to those
other questions that we cannot
separate them if we would; and
represented in this convention are
men from every industry and
every business that depends upon
these national resources that the
government is seeking to protect.
1 care not whether you are farm
er, merchant. lawyer. a man
utacturer, a stockman or what you
are, your business ultimately and
finally depends tor its support up
on the maintenance unimpaired
of these national resources, and |
hope therefore. Mr.. President,
that this convention before it ad-
journs will send to the Congress
of the United States that is to
convene this winter a message in
substance reading like this: 1--WE
approve the policy of PRESERVING
THE FORESTS. of conserving the
water supply. and we recon-
mend the enactment of law by
Congress whereby the use of the
public domain that is valuable
only for grazing purposes and
water sheds shall be used, under
such reasonable regulation and
control as will preserve its value
to. the live stock industry, exact
ing for its use reasonable charge
for administrative purposes thus
recommending a general applica-
ton of This conserving and con-
structive policy.
thank you, Mr.. President.
