COOLIDGE Takes F4RSICHTED
VIEW OF RECLAMATION WORK

That President Coolidge takes the
proper and logical view of reclamation
of arid lands is clear from his letter
to the American Mining congress
made public yesterday. To those who
like General Dawes, have expressed
the belief that irrigation and reclana-
tion projects merely increase agricul-
tural competition, he replies that the
work takes years to complete. He is
thinking not so much of today, or of
a temporary overproduction of certain
farm products, as he is of the need of
using to the full the available water
power so that the nation may have the
benefit of greater hydroelectric de-
velopment, and the people in the re-
gions of the WATERPROOF sites may
have a greater abundance of home
products.
The president mentions two recla-
nation projects, one in the Sacramen-
to River valley and the other embrace
ing the entire problem Of Harvesting
the Colorado river system. This lat
ter, which affects the interests Of
seven states, has presented legal diff
culties greater even than the engi-
neering. A survey of the entire Colo
RADIO river, from its origin at the juno
ton of the Grand and the Green
rivers to its mouth at the head of the
Gulf of California, has now been COM
pleted by the federal authorities and
suitable dam sites chosen.
This work involved the highly dan
gerous voyage down the Grand Cam
yon which the party sent out by the
Geological Survey accomplished sue
cessfully last year. Theirs was one
of the few expeditions to go through
the hundreds of miles of torrential
rapids of the Colorado without mis-
hap. 1t is about so years since the
first expedition, headed by Major
Powell, ventured into this great rift in
the earth made by the Colorado river.
While the surveyors were meeting

W. A. CAMPBELL HAS BEEN
MOST EFFICIENT SHERIFF

One of the hardest-working, always
on-the-job sheriffs Coconino county
ever has had is w. A. Campbell, cam
didate for reelection.
Campbell has the name of being at
least one of the most efficient sheriffs
in the state of Arizona.
1t is strictly on his record that he
is making his campaign for re-elec-
tion on November A. He has enforced
the law, without fear, favor or partial
ly, to the best of his ability-and, let
it also be said, with conspicuous sue
cess-and he feels that the facts war
rant his success at the polls.
A law enforcement officer is bound
to make enemies. Especially is this
true when many of the cases have to
do with the liquor laws. But the laws
are on the statute books and as long
as they are, Campbell says, it is the
duty of every officer to enforce them
and he must observe his oath of office
and do that very thing. He didn't
make the laws, they were made by the
people; he was elected by the people
as a law enforcement officer. When
a law is broken he has to act, no mat
ter how popular the offender may be
or who his friends are.
1t is unfair to condemn an officer
for Observance of duty. Still, it is
done The way. out of the dilemma
when it comes to election day, then, it
seems, is for those who want the
laws enforced without fear or favor to
support the man who has that kinG
Of record.
Campbell has never laid down on
his job. 1t has necessitated much
duty that is tedious, much that is ar
duous, a good deal that has been
detrimental to his political chances.
He had to be away down in Mexico
after a fugitive murderer for several
weeks before during and for some time
after the primaries. But he felt it his
duty to be there rather than home
here fixing up his political fences, SO
that is where he was. He lost lot
of valuable campaign time. But it
didn't worry Campbell any. Personal
politics cut no ice when duty gave
him a sheriffing job to do.
Campbells record for getting law
breakers is a splendid one. 1t has
been very seldom in the four years he
has been sheriff that man has es-
capped. His record in that respect COM
pared with that of most sheriffs is
one hundred plus.
AS for honesty, no person. even
among those who are on the other side
of the fence from him politically has
ever been heard to question that.
The Coconino sun., 1924-10-24

incredible personal hardships the fed
eral government endeavored to induce
the seven states concerned to sign .
treaty regulating their respective
rights and obligations This proved
an even more Formidable task; one
state still refuses to agree. From a
legal point of view the question is
complicated by the lack of clarity as
to the rights of states in interstate
waters. Politically, it is complicated
by the unwillingness of sorrle of the
leaders to forfeit what they believe Co
be the special rights of their state,
even in the interest Of the general
welfare
Supposing this question to be satis-
factory settled. it viii still he: many
years before the pro- is actually in
operation. Numerous conflicting in-
sterests will be certain ito appear In
connection with the work on particular
sites. The actual construction alone
will require many years. Some of the
sites are in country which is almost
inaccessible. 1t stands to reason5
therefore, that there is little danger
of increasing oyerproduction in. the
near future even if work be started
in such reclamation projects tomor@
row. On the contrary, it Is more than
likely that these. developments will
hardly keep pace with the growth of
the country. 2
The special commission appointed
by the president a year ago to study
the nations irrigation problem made
a number of wise recommendations
regarding future development. OF
these the most important is that in
planning future sites to be irrigated
especial attention be paid to the rela-
tion of the earning power of the land
to the cost of the projects. Obvious
as is this principle, it is one which, if
the results on some projects tell the
story truly, has not always been ap-
plied-New York Times.

ASHURST CALLED ON
EXTRAVAGANT TALK

United States Senator Henry F..
Ashurst is campaigning in Arizona for
the democratic state ticket and espe-
cially for Governor Hunt, for whom he
claims the distinction of being "the
produced" and to whom he gives the
credit for passage of the San Carlos
dam bill in congress, for the discovery
of leprosy cure in Siam, and for
saving the state by placing cattle
quarantine against California.
The Phoenix Republican editoriaiEy
challenges Mr.. Ashurst's qualifica-
tions as an expert witness. After con-
sideration of the San Carlos matter, In
which major credit is declared to be
due to missionary to the Pimas, Rev.
Dirk G. Lay. the editor continues:
"The other statement by Mr.. As
hurst on Thursday night which en-.
cages our attention was to the effect
that Governor Hunt was the greatest
statesman Arizona had ever produced.
We will forbear raising the question
whether Arizona has ever produced q.
statesman. We think not. But that is
neither here nor there. We are only
concerned with the competency OF Mr..
Ashurst as a witness as to the quality
of the governors craftsmanship.
1--WE do not think Mr.. Ashurst can
qualify as an expert. We do not think
that any man who ever believed that
William Randolph Hearst was the
greatest man who ever trod the earth
since Jesus Christ, can be an accurate
Judge of greatness or can ever become
an accurate judge. Twenty years ago,
Mr.. Ashurst said he believed that.
Twelve years ago, during his first
campaign for the United States sena-
torship, the Mcnamara brothers were
on trial for the dynamiting of the Of
flee of the Los Angeles Times, a trag-
edy involving 21 victims. Members
of organized labor believed that the
McNamaras were innocent. Senator
Ashurst, who was counting, on the
vote of organized labor, professed to
believe that. One night, Mr. Ashurst,
in an impassioned denunciation of
capitalism for trying to send two. In
nocent men to their doom for no other
crime than that of belonging to- organ.
lied labor, tapped the breast pocket
of his coat significantly and said that
there were concealed documents con-
clusively establishing their Innocence.
'The next day the two McNamaras,
being unaware of Mr.. Ashurst's abso-
Lutte and incontrovertible proof ofgtheir
innocence, confessed their guilt; one
was sent to the penitentiary for life;
the other for period of ten years. By
| the way, that one was arrested with
in the last week charged with a SINH
lar outrage.
"In view of these errors of judg-.
ment on the part of Mr.. .4Ashurst, we
| think he should be disqualified as an
expert. We do not think the claim
for credit for any part in the San, Car
los dam legislation should be awarded
to Governor Hunt. Nor do we think
that a certificate of craftsmanship
car be rightfully awarded TO the. gov
ernor on the testimony of Mr.. Ashurst
and there is no other testimony be-
fore the court" 80
