AAKER IS OUT FOR
GOVERNOR BURKE !
Candidate of the Primaries
Could No Longer Stand
Old Gangs Work.
Advises His Supporters to
Rebuke McKenzieism by
Voting for Burke

Fargo, N. D., Oct. N.-The Fargo
Daily News this morning carries a
signed statement from H. n. Aaker,
independent candidate for governor at
the recent primaries, in which he de-
clares himself in favor of Burke for
governor. Aaker appeals to the II, 900
voters, who showed their independence
at the primaries by voting for him. to
strike against G. A. johnson and his
political manager, Alex. Mckenzie
He says they whipped the element two
years ago, four years ago. and could do
it again. His statement in full: a q
Il have followed the campaign closely
and the more I see Of il the more am
convinced that the best interests Of the
state demand that John Burke be re-
elected governor.
Some of the methods employed to
discredit Burke'sy administration are
such as to disgust fair minded people,
and /, for one, refuse to be lined up
with the disreputable, blind pig element
Of Devils Lake. If G. A. Johnson's
supporters choose to line up with the
blind pig element in the state, C. A.
johnson can no longer count on my
support.
IT the main supporters Of c. A.
johnson are behind the movement to
discredit the primary election law as
they evidently are, c. A. johnson can
not get my support. It is now very
evident that McKenxieism, Ahrichism
and Cannonism are the same ia this
state and vote for G. A. Johnson
means an endorsement Of them all.s
II the main supporters Of G. A..
johnson are also behind the movement
topack the supreme court Of the state
in tho interests Of the corporations, c.
A. johnson can not get my support.

more standing timber in its forests

be unproductive. 1t was necessary,
then, that the people in order to
protect themselves from a monopoly,
or trust, or from any great body Of
men acting together and monopoliz-
ing that which was so essential to
the life of every citizen, should
create laws that would guard the peo-
pie for all time against any monopoly
of our water rights or resources of
every character The result is that
in almost every constitution in the
states Of the arid west there is a
clause which provides that the waters
of the streams of these states shall
be used for beneficial purposes only.
That is to say, that a man must use
the water that he appropriates There
is no law we could pass, there is no
body of men that would permit one
drop of our water to be owned abb
solutely by any private individual or
combination, except so far as bene-
fetal use is made of it.
The difference between the east
and the west on this point is the
fact that no water fights have been
taken under the old principle OF
riparian water rights. Your water
powers have been developed, your for.
ests have been taken away and

state of Idaho. will simply give
you picture Of what is done in every
western state, and for that reason l
shall discuss irrigation in my state
ana this will give you a general idea
of its application to All Of our west
ern states
Idaho possesses an area of $4,000
600 acres of land I mention this so
you can understand the Importance
of irrigation in the valleys not only
of our state, but the entire arid west.
OF these 54,0OO.OO0 acres of land. the
national government had set aside
something over 20.0O0,OO0 acres. or
over one-third of our entire area, as
a forest reesrve, and approximately
100000 acres for Indian reserves.
ia addition to these Withdrawals.
Idaho has approximately 100000
acres of grazing lands and 100000
acres Of mineral lands. leaving about
1900. 900 acres Of agricultural land.
In the northern part Of our state
the climate is humid and irrigation
is not required except in small area
to insure against failure of crops.
However. there is in the southern
part Of our state about 10000. 600
acres Of arid lands that can be re-
claimed and made useful for agri.
cultural purposes where water is
available
The conditions, I hope you will
understand. are very different in tn,
west from what they are in the east
as is discernible from the remark
Of the governors made at this meet
