Fhe of the water of the Colorado implies the de-
veopment of more than 900 of the public do
main that would be worthless if the Colorado river was
not to be controlled and it is coed business for the gov

lands may be habitabe though such assistance con
all the money the government receives from the
sale of these lands <. ~
1t is true the residents of the valley will be benefc
aries from the control of the river but it's equally true
that in the process of nation making it isghy desirable

which Justice would impose foreign country and it
s fitting that the federal government should per-
form those duties and depend on the eventual settlement

80 The people Of the valley welcome the visiting
