Pueblo.-Although the air is full OF
rumors of civil war among the dele
gates to the National Irrigation con-
gress in session here. the proceedings
Tuesday failed to develop even the
symptoms of fight. Everybody is
predicting battle. but nobody appears
to have any desire to start an open
fight. In conversational groups the
delegates are talking manfully of what
they will not under any circumstances
vote for. But on the floor of the con-
gress itself the talk indicates nothing
but harmony. brotherly love. the CO.
operative spirit, unanimous agreement
upon general principles.
