well, the man who organized the peo-
Pie OF the dry west in their successful
campaign to secure national irriga-
uon' has taken charge of the work of
organizing the people of the wet delta
lol their fight for drainage. His object
IS to make The National Drainage

cess to attract the attention of the
country at large to the cheaper cost
OF living side to the drainage of the
f5'oOO,OOO acres of wet lands in 40
states in so forceful and potential a
manner as to bring congress into close
touch with the drainage problems of
the United States.
Mr.. Maxwell has organized the mer-

holders of New Orleans under a spe.
cial committee: the railroads: the ho-

He is also organizing a national

Secret Of a Newsprper,s Power.

An independent and ably edited
newspaper that commands a great
circulation Is probably the most po-
tent influence for good in the Unit
ed States to-day.
The power for the better things
in public affairs and policies, for
instance, welded BY such a newspa-
per as the Chicago Record Herald
can scarcely be exaggerated, and
much OF that strength comes in the
case of this leading Chicago daily
from the fact that it is absolutely
Independent, fearless and fair. II
is not the mouthpiece of any inter-
est except that OF the public. Here
is the secret of the power OF the
press. No newspaper has very
much real power over men and
events unless it is known to be
standing steadfastly and sanely for
the public good-for the welfare OF
the community and nation-for
public honesty and a square deal,
whatever happens.
The Chicago Record-Hera
champions the cause of the good,
the clean. the beneficial in every
matter Of city, State or national
moment. II is the knowledge on
the part OF its readers that it cares
not whom 1t hits or what enemies
1t makes. so long as 1t Is battling
for the public good. which gives to
the Record-Herald most of the wide
influence it Yields. This public
spirited editorial policy also per-
meates its news and critical col
umns. The most complete and i'm
partial reports of the doings of
both great political parties to be
found anywhere, year in and year
out, will be found in the Chicago
Record-Herald.
