Irrigation is live issue in Mon
tana, and the need for more and bet
ter irrigation is being recognized
and agitated by organizations and
individuals throughout the state. In
looking for ways and means of i'm
provement along this line, we are at
once confronted with the fact that
one of the great hindrances to irri-
cation development is the unsatisfac-
tory condition of the water laws of
this state. Our evident duty is then
to examine and point out the actual
defects in our present system, pro-
pose definite remedies for such de-
fects and then through campaign
of education secure the cooperation
of the people throughout the state
for the passage of such needed legis-
lation.
One of the most evident shortcom-
ings of the Montana system is the
great uncertainty and indefiniteness
as to water rights because of the lack
of a central office authorized to keep
proper record of such rights. Most
other western states provide for such
central office of record, while in
this state water right records (such
as they are), are scattered through
out the counties, with the result that
any investigation of the water rights
on the larger streams of the state ne
cessitates the searching of the rec
ords of several counties, and even of

ed Indebtedness of the district. This
is the limit set by the certification
clause of the Oregon law above rec
commended. A project meeting these
requirements would be a safe and
conservative enterprise, and if certi-
fled by the state as is done in Ore
gon and California should have no
trouble in selling it's bonds.
There are many projects in Mon
tana which meet the above require
ments, and if properly handled under
proper state law, should be success
fully developed under the irrigation
district law, but we must strongly
discourage and openly oppose the
tendency to ''wildcatting" irrigation
district law. For the development of
such areas, another means must be
sought, and since there is great need
for such development in Montana,
much of the states future develop
ment depends on a proper solution
of this problem. Many schemes have
been proposed for handling such pro-
jects, but after many Years of careful
study of the failures and successes of
such projects, 1 am strongly con-
WINGED that some such system of state

now being so successfully carried on
by the California state land settle
ment board is the evident solution of
our problem, ana the thing most to
be recommended for Montana.
Under this system California has
already developed and colonized
many thousands of acres of land, and |
the settlers are contented and pros
porous, and thus far not a single set
tier has defaulted in any payment |
due the state. This is a condition |
quite unheard-of under any other sys-
tenn of development.
With new land projects developed |
under system similar to the Califor-
MIA land settlement scheme, with par
tally developed lands completely de-
veloped under the irrigation district |
law, amended as suggested to include |
The certification clause as in Oregon |
and California, and with the adop-
ion of fundamental water law sim
lar to the Wyoming code, Montana |
would soon enter upon a period of i
great irrigation development, COM
nensurate with her progressive pop
llation and great natural resources.

Prices and the high cost of living
are on the downward trend, probably
not to be halted in their orderly
course until point of stability or of
some permanency is reached.
This is the opinion of expert finan-
ciers and economists in and out of
congress. That the peak of the pc
Rod of initiation has been passed and
that the nation is now to experience
a period of orderly deflation, is the
belief of many students of economics.
The call made upon the federal re-
serve, banks by Governor Harding of
the federal reserve board, for the cur
tailment of credits except for essen
tial productions and the gospel
preached by the governor and now
being spread broadcast over the ma
tion by officers of the reserve banks
that the financial situation calls for
sacrifices akin to those of wartime
and for Increased production, in
creased savings and lessened waste
and consumption is having a whole
some effect.
Less Speculation
1t is predicted that there will now
be less speculation in the various
markets and that money held by spe-
will be turned into the chan
nels of commerce to relieve in part
the strain upon the financial situa-
ton. To relieve this strain and pro-
vide for the production and move
ment of crops is the problem of the
banks, and finally the problem of the |
public, for through increased produc-
lion and the practice of proper econ
omy, the public can solve the diff
,ulties.
1t is in such a period as this that
he value of the federal reserve sys-

it is possible to keep firm control

the necessary remedies in time to
avert anything in the nature of a

Democratic senators vigorously OPP

said to be preparing to demand perS
mission to import arms and munitions
Of war from the United States. HI
larfo Medina, s~ub-secretary Of foreign
affairs, in a statement which has been
reported to the state department, has
announced that as a result OF the re-
tirement OF Robert Lansing as secre-
tary Of state It Is probable that the
Mexican demand will be met. At the
same time there was made public In
Mexico City the text Of the most re-
cent correspondence between Mexican
Ambassador Bonillas and Secretary
Lansing on the matter. Because Of
the unsettled conditions in Mexico the
state department has for several years
refused to permit war munitions to be
exported to Mexico, save in a few spe'
cinc instances.
Investigations showed that the
rebels secured at least half the MUM
lions permitted to move for the Car
rama forces. The investigation also
showed, 1t was said today, that prac-
tically all OF the 400 and more Amer
leans killed in Mexico during the past
few years by Mexicans were killed by
American-made bullets.

The dismissal or the appeal by Ell

Washington, d. c., will be asked In
a motion by the attorney general on
the ground that no federal question
Is involved. Assistant Attorney Cen
eral Harry s. Bowman stated today
that the motion would be sent 10
Washington in. a few days.
The supreme court IL expected to
consider the motion for dismissal in

cision, either sustaining or oyerruling
the motion, probably viii not be an
nounced until later. If the motion Is
sustained the appeal will be automat-
ically rejected. II 1t IS overruled the

'Rancett BRIEF bases the appeal on
four grounds, alleging that Judge F..

that Blancett didn't have q fair trial
because or demonstrations made BY
spectators; that one OF the jurors

only ten jurors. In regard 10 the
last-named ground II was said that

showed only ten jurors empaneled,
