Death ENDS
old ROMANCE

New York, June 11.-Three lines
of agate type printed the news today
that death had ended the romance OF
Margaret Leavitt, the young heiress
who ran away from home last Janu'
airy to marry Joe Smollen, the "candy
KID" formerly chauffeur for Jim Cor
bett, the prize fighter.
The advertisement did not say
where Mrs. Smollen had died and the
family refused to discuss their grief.
but i1asmuch 1t was understood that
Mrs. Smollen had gone abroad, it was
supposed that she had died in Eur
open. It became known tonight, how
ever, that she had died yesterday in
a private sanitarium in this city.
Margaret Leavitt was the daughter
of G. Rowland Leavitt, millionaire
of Bayside, Long Island, and was said
to be worth 100000 in her own
right. She fell in love with Smollen,
Who had left the service of Corbett
to become chauffeur for her father,
and when her family disapproved,
married him against their will in Jer-
sey City.

grasp enormous tracts of valuable
timber land. This land, he said, be-
longed to the people and should be
apportioned among as many as pos
sible.
Whenever the administration learn
ed Of contemplated grabs, the power
of the blanket withdrawal served to
remove tracts. from settlement. Grad
ually 1t had been the plan of the ad-
ministration to release this land in
some way to prevent it's seizure by
corporations. The corporations, he
said, cared only for the timber. There
was nothing in their plans of better
ment of the land for the future and
the individual settler was robbed.
Taking up Mr.. Hills statement that
the Pinchot policies had tended to
keep settlers out of the west, Mr..
Garfield entered a general denial. He
explained the purpose of the govern
ment in withdrawing lands by blan-
ket withdrawal. He told of action in
the big conservation project in Ari
IONA, when thousands of settlers,
hearing of the government plans
had rushed into the district which was
to be irrigated, had seized lands and
had been starved out before the plans
of the government had been carried
out. To prevent this, Mr.. Garfield
said, all such land was thereafter
withdrawn, the blanket withdrawal
was used, and as the plans of the en-.
gineers reached completion the land
was released.
Hill 4 Convert
Mr.. Hill then asked Mr.. Pinchot
and Mr.. Garfield closely as to their
ideas and both gave extended ex-
plantations.
Mr.. Garfield admitted that imme-'
date harm might have resulted from
blanket Withdrawals, but maintained
that the plans would result in ulti-
mate good.
Mr.. Hill then stated that he had
never had the plans explained to him
as he heard them from the lips of
Pinchot and Garfield, and admitted
that they looked good to him.

Millions Are Being Spent on irrigation
Projects to Redeem, Wastes Of

approximately onethird of the
United States is vacant government
land. much of 1t desert.great arid
wastes of yellow sands. with only
crooked and dwarfed mesquite, the
vicious looking giant cactus and sage
brush of dusty green to relieve the
awful monotony.
In order to redeem these desolate
areas and fit them for commercial
purposes and to provide farm homes
for more of our people the govern
ment has already expended SAB 5000, 600
and is constantly adding to that sum
in the turtherance of it's great irri-
cation plans
In his first message to congress in
1901 Theodore Roosevelt urged the
passage of an act to reclaim the des-
ert AS result of the public interest
created by the appeal, congress, in
1902, passed what is known as the ma
tional reclamation act, which pro-
vides that 95 per cent of the moneys
received from the sale of public lands
in Arizona. Nebraska, Nevada. New
Mexico, California, Colorado, Idaho,
Kansas, Montana, North Dakota, Okla
homa, Oregon South Dakota Utah.
Washington and Wyoming, beginning
with June 30, 1901, be set aside for
the use of constructing irrigation
works
1t was stipulated that as soon as
any work was completed the owners
OF the land benefited must begin to re-
turn the cost thereof payments being
made in 10 annual !astallments with
out interest, the money so returned
being used over and over in the con-
struction of other works.
To eliminate speculation and put
stop to greedy acquisitions of large
tracts it was provided that no one
could own more than 100 acres under
any of the projects and the owners
must actually reside upon and cult
vate the land.
Numerous state laws strengthened
this provision, some of them reducing
the holdings to 80, and in some cases
40 acres. Soil to be used for orchard
purposes is limited to 40 acres, while
that for alfalfa and other grasses to
so acres.
The work of the reclamation service
has been simply marvellous, nine pro-
jects having been completed in these
few years, and % others are in course
of construction; several of these will
be finished during the present year.
When these projects, counting those
completed, shall all have been accom-
plished, approximately 100000 acres
of ground, valued at s90,000,0O0 will
have been reclaimed and land tracts
wherein few years ago existed only
starvation and woe and want-where
every living thing showed the des-
perate struggle for mere existence
have been changed into thrifty or
chards, green fields and prosperous
gardens and have been made to
bloom as the rose"
