The Jasper News truly says that a
nation that has plenty of men is al
ways prepared for war. The trouble
about the United States is that nobody
knows how many men it has. A human
being that wears pants, but is too
proud to fight, is not a man.

own matters and let the Mesa people
alone, and there will be no further
trouble in this matter.
l wish to reiterate again that OF
all of the people who are asking that
this Mesa land be restored, and to be
watered from the Laguna dam, not
one of them is asking for the water
that belongs to any man in Imperial
Valley, nor even to the land that is
under cultivation in Old Mexico. We
want to develop our own lands, pay
for them ourselves, improve the Val
ley, help pay the taxes, and interfere
with no persons rights.
We ask that all fair-minded men
will ponder this thing carefully, that
they may know where the blame
should go. Respectfully,

APPEALS FOR
EAST SIDE MESA

Editor of the Press-Dear Sir
There is a controversy going on be
tween the people who are offering
desert claim filings on the East Side
mesa and the Irrigation District. Most
o fthis has been published in the col
umns of the Progress. / wish to state
my views and 1 thought it best to
put it in the Press that all people
sliving in Ell Centre and vicinity would
understand the points of controversy
between the two factions.
The people of the Valley should
know that all the filters on the East
Side mesa are citizens Of the United
States, who have desert claim rights.
None of them are violators of any
law, and none of them are asking for
the water rights of any man living
in the now irrigated district in the
Valley. 1t is only misstatement Of
facts whereby the friends of the
district are trying to becloud the is
sue and mack it appear that we are
interfering with the Irrigation Dis
trict rights. The fact of the matter
is, the Irrigation District is inter-
fering where they are not asked to,
where they have no right to under
the law which makes the district and
under the vote of the people who or
ganized the district. They have a
plenty to do which they should at
tend to and not interfere with my
rights to the desert claim.
It has even been limited through the
columns of the Progress that by my
going on the mesa would interfere
with the MeXicans' free use of air
and sunshine. Of course this is alb
surd, and the writer intended it for
an insinuation, bat if there is any
doubt as to this matter the Irrigation
District should hire an expert on air
end sunshine and see that these poor
Mexicans that form the syndicates
that are getting the water nowadays
are protected in these God-given
rights.
If the Irrigation District or any
of it's friends think that the 200 peo-
pie who are now trying to develop
the mesa, are going to quit this agi-
tation and fight for this right that
the laws of the county fives them,
and lay down and concede that the
only people who have rights in this
country are those who live in other
parts, and own those big tracts in
Mexico, the sooner they wake up to
the fact the better it will be for all
concerned. If people are getting tired
of the agitation and want cessation
of this controversy, it would be good
time for the district to attend to their
