SECRETARY Jones Outlines Plan At lrri.
cation Meeting. 5
Denver-First Assistant Secretary
OF the Interior A.. A. Jones. In his
speech opening the irrigation congress.
in the House Of Representatives cham
ber at the statehcuse. outlined the
plans of the Department OF the Inte-
rior for the rehabilitation of irrigation
development in the West as follows.
stating. however. that these proposals
were but suggestions to be worked out
into definite form at the conference:
In the case OF smaller irrigation
projects. careful organization on the
basis Of thorough Investigation and
the best engineering. SO as to obtain
capital at low rate of interest. and
thus relieve settlers Of the heavy bur-
den of overbonding and high interest
rates. ~
In the case Of the larger projects.
a plan Of cooperation In financing be-
tween the federal and state govern
ments. to be worked out, 1t was hoped.
as the result Of the conference.
In this connection Jones made a
statement of great Significance.
This was that the question is COM
ing up whether the government is to
be reimbursed In full. or to what ex-
tent. for money advanced. Already
800. 900. 900 had been spent In recla-
nation and It Would require 100000
600 to complete projects now under
way. This statement will make an
opening in the discussions that the
government should put water on its
lands for settlers at no charge. or at
less than the actual cost, as some are
contending.
In order to bring about the desired
new era in irrigation development new
legislation by the states and by Con-
gress would probably be necessary.
Jones' statement that the Depart
ment of the Interior had not lost any
confidence In the merits of irrigation
was received with applause. He was
followed throughout with the deepest
interest by the most representative
western gathering ever assembled in
Denver.

House leaders are much interested
in President Wilson's declaration be
will not be satisfied unless the whole

be counted upon to pass the trade

amendment, and to go no further at
this session, except to possibly pass
the general dam bill, now privileged
to come up any time in the house.

London.-An attempt by militant
suffragets to present a petition to
King George at Buckingham palace,
resulted in the hercest battle in the
history of the militant movement, at
the very gates to the palace on
Thursday.
Headed by Mrs. Emmeline Pank-

flying squad Of women swept down
Constitution hill towards Buckingham
palace, but when half way along they
met the most hated enemy of the mill
tants in the person of Inspector Riley,
who has charge of the suffraget detail
at the Scotland Yard police head
quarters.
The shock Of combat was short but
sharp and resulted In the arrest of
many women, who in defending them
selves used clubs with a facility which
betrayed long training. Many police
men were injured and more than
thirty women were arrested.
