SPECIAL INTEREST MEN
SAT UPON REAL HARD

Colorado river and attempting to
supply water to farmers near Yuma.
The company has failed to supply
water for two years and had tried
to sell out to the government or the
farmers for 100000. Engineers of
the government have appraised the
whole concern at $4,000. The
members Of the Arizona delegation
say that Turner is here on con-
tingent fee to get a resolution
through the congress. He had the
first resolution In when the con-
gress convened. It condemns the
so-called competition of the reclaim
alton service with private concerns.
Turner is trying to work up senti-
ment for it. Turner is on the way
to defeat also. Yesterday afternoon,
after Pardee had finished his at
tack on Pinchot, Turner. who was
on the rostrum, arose to defend Bal

taste of any l have heard here" he
said, and the delegates began to

INDIANS AREA
BIG HIT.

One of the most enjoNabld fea-
lures of the irrigation congress, to
Spokane people, was thef Parade
given last night. The down town
streets, particularly Riverside av-
enue, were filled with one of the
biggest crowds ever seen In the
business section of the city. Yet the
affair was managed in an orderly
way and not single accident &C.
Cured to mar the pleasure of the
evening.
The parade was much similar to
the one given the day before. the
new features being the red fire on
the streets and more decorated au-
tomobiles. The delegation of Spo-
kane Indians were again In line,
and as they set out In the parade
they gave the we'll known Indian
yells that have been made familiar
in the wild west circuses.
R. B. Patterson's car was given
the first prize, silver cup, for the
most handsomely decorated auto
mobile in the parade. The car was
filled with young ladies wearing
parasols covered with electric
lights of varying hues. Judge
Turner's car won second honors.

BY SAMUEL M. EVANS

Among the delegates to every ma
tional irrigation congress for the
past 10 years, and to every COM
mercial congress held in the United
States, are always to be found at
torneys representing special inter
ests. And this year is no excep-
ton to the rule.
And the delegates to the con-
crosses are getting able to recog-
nize these men whenever they APP
pear now. III
There are three conspicuous ex-
amples in attendance at the Seven.
teenth National Irrigation congress
this year. All have been sat upon
so far.
Chief among them Is Frank HI.
Short of Fresno, California, attor-
ney for the Huntington Power Co.
and it's subsidiary corporations.
The Huntington concerns are allied
with the water power trust, and
Short can be relied upon to earn
his pay. He is a man of fine per-
sonality and prominent in Califor-
MIA politics. Last year he hung on
at Albuquerque until 2 o'clock in
the morning and, when most of
the members of the resolutions
; committee had gone home, thinking
that all was done, Short got the
committee to pass a resolution
condemning Pinchot and calling on
the government to grant rights OF
way for power companies through
all public lands. The interests al
ways stay until the last.
This year, Short tried to GUST
former Governor Pardee from the
resolutions committee by getting
himself elected a member of the
committee from California. But
Pardee's appointment by President
Barstow held, and Short seconded
Pardee's nomination to be per.
manent chairman of the committee
Short is a diplomat. But the dele
gates are watching for him.
Another representative of special
interests is Attorney George Turn
er of this state. Turner is also a
public man. He represented
Washington in congress when II
was a territory and had to do with
the boundary dispute between
Great Britain and the United
States. He is a friend of Senator
Root, formerly secretary of state.
This year Turner is representing
the Yuma, Arizona, Land & Water
Co. This company has a ditch Al
