SECOND
AT CONGRESS

Albuquerque, N NJ, Sept. 30.-The
second days session of the National
Irrigation Congress opened this NOR
ming with the appointment of COM
mittees by President Goudy. The res
olutions committee began work at
once, being deluged with resolutions
introduced without reading. The reso-
lutions cover a wide range. The Ma
tional Association of Manufacturers
presented resolutions strongly en-
dorsing the reclamation service and
the forestry bureau. The TRANSMITS
souri, Dry Farming Congress and a
number of other organizations also
forwarded resolutions for considera-
ton of the Congress.
The opening address of the morn
ing session was by John Barrett, di
rector of the International Bureau of
American Republics, who spoke of ir-
rigation's rapid progress through the
Pan-American countries.
w. H. Wiley, of Colorado, discuss
ed Irrigation by Private Enterprise"
D. C. Beaman, of Denver, spoke on
National Forests and Forest Preser-
vation.''
Beaman attacked the forestry ser
vice and its head, Clifford Pinchot. He
said: mo policy in recent years has
done so much to ALLEVIATE the funds
of the government as the mistaken
policy of the forest service, and if
aDv of the mountain states shall on
Democratic this fall it will be chiefly
for that reason. If a state government
had treated it's people in such man
ner it would have been ousted at the
next election" Discussing Pinchot's
plan to stop the loss of soil from ero-
sion by. preserving the forests and
thus preventing floods, Beaman said:
''The truth is that the rains which
produce the greatest floods do not
fall in the mountains. The storms are
almost wholly in the plains country
as the result of long and incessant
rains, and these floods can only be
prevented by the construction of res
ervoirs of sufficient capacity to re-
tain the surplus water, and that must
be the final remedy against the enor-
nous rains which the forests cannot
restrain. Beaman said more timber
had been cut and sold under the for
est service than ever before in the
Rocky mountains, but he had been in
formed by a forest supervisor that
less timber hereafter will be offered
for sale.

Death of Mrs. Bernardls.

Mrs John Bernardis died at 8 80 p.

Monday, after a lingering illness
covering seven or eight months, heart
trouble being the immediate cause OF
death. She was conscious of impend-

mental faculties till the end. Her
last sad request before she passed
over the great divide was that her
relations and friends weep not be-
cause of her departure. She was a
woman of kindly heart as her dying
request would imply. The remains
will be inferred in the Catholic
