FEDERAL CONTROL ESSENTIAL
THAT IS THE VERDICT OF lRRIGA
TloN CONGRESS-.
Clifford Plnchot and Francis J. Heney
Were Chief Speakers at the
Days Sessions.

Pueblo, Col, Sept. 30.-Glaord Pin
chot, ex-chief forester OF the United
States, and Francis J. Heney OF Cali
fornia were the stars the sessions OF
the Eighteenth National Irrigation
congress.
BY the time Pinchot arrived at the
congress on late train from the
West, the struggle between the states
rights men and the federal control
faction was all over but the shouting
with the supporters Of the federal
control doing the shouting following
the news from the resolutions commit.
tee that they agreed on this resolu-
ton:
That 1t is the sense of the congress
that federal control is essential in the
equitable distribution and utilization
Of the waters of ultra state streams;
recognizing always the rights Of the
citizen who has effected valid right
Of appropriation"
Pinchot was scheduled to speak on
THE Actual Battle" He took the
floor about the middle of the afternoon
and reviewed the fight made by the
states rights men. to wrest control OF
irrigation and conservation projects
from the government. He urged the
adoption Of a conciliat6ry program.
Those things which are good for
the people should be under control Of
the states" he said, but those things
which are in the grasp Of the great
corporations should be brought under
federal control"
The Colorado delegates made open
charge that the reclamation and forest
service have packed the convention.
Colorado was given 20 minutes to
present its side of the Eagle dam con-
troversy. H. H. Edy represented
Colorado, he contended that Southern
Colorado was being retarded IN de-
velopment In order that parts of Texas
might reap undue benefits. i9h
Francis J. Heney strongly supported |
the policy Of federal control. He de.
clared at all the present land laws are
ineffective, that they do not In the
slightest degree prevent corporation
theft Of natural resouces and should
be repealed.
He declared for strong federal con
troll of oil. natural gas, water power
and coal, because these are the energy
agencies without which cor
porations cannot exist and Oppress,

Washington, Sept. 30.-The stat
department and the war department
and the navy department, although II
possession OF disturbing news as Il
renewed activity among the boxers II
China are unwilling yet TO admit any
thing except the preparedness Of the
army In the Philippines and the Philip
pine feet to deal with the situation.
War Department Prepared.
From what can be learned here
Minister Calhoun at Pekin communi
Gated directly with Admiral Hubbard
in the Philippines and the army ON
cials at Manila. This he had right
to do as a minister, using his dis
erection In emergencies.
The war department says 1t has itt
eye always on contingencies such az
now appear to be threatening ir
China.
While no official statement can be
obtslned other than that the interview
between the president and the Chinese
Prince Sum was important, 1t is gen
orally believed that one Of the sub
jects discussed was the Boxer activl
ties. Occasionally as In the great re
bellIon Of 1901-O2, the Chinese govern
ment is unable to cope with its own
internal disorders. At that time Chine
made no objection to the joint action
OF all the powers which sent relief
expedition to Pekin. It Ia believed
that China will now welcome the as
slstance of United States army anc
navy In case the trouble gets beyond
Its power Of suppression. Aside from
this 1t is the duty Of the United States
to make It's own Investigations and
forms its own judgment as to the time
for Intervention and act accordingly
with or without the suggestion Of
China.
Navy In AsIatIc Waters.
The important ships that the navy
has in Aslatic waters are the New

ing by Judge Van Fleet of the United
States circuit court in San Francisco
OF a temporary order restraining the
city officials from interference with
the property OF the Southern Pacific,

the Southern Pacific on one hand and
the Northern Electric, protected by the
city's police, on the other, which had
proceeded throughout the day. over
the attempt of the electric road to save
its franchise by extending its tracks
to the river
Imbedded deep in the sand, the rails
of the electric company stretch between
the cross lines of the Southern Pacific
from its tracks in Front street to the
river. Although connections will not
permit trains TO run, the Northern
won a victory and that the franchise
has been saved.
Railroad officers, laboring gangs of
both roads and thousands of spectators
swarmed on the scene throughout the
day.
Chief of Police Ahern attempted
twice to clear the obstructions of
deau switch engines, box cars and
thousands of tons of debris placed by
the Southern Pacific in the path of it's
rival, but in both instances the police
were repelled. Two clashes took place,
one of the Southern Pacific locomo tive
engineers being worsted in a fist fight
with Ahern.
After the issuance OF the restraining
order the Southern Pacific crews in al
most twinkling with heavy cranes
had removed the steel and iron ma
