STORAGE RESERVOIRS. Irrigation A National and State Problem. Address by George H. Maxwell at the University Farmers Club Institute at Redlands. Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:—If we, who now dwell in the midsts of the beauties which irrigation has created in Southern California, had lived in the old pagan days, when man deified the forces of nature, Water would have been the God that would have been worshipped, as the ancient Egyptians worshipped the God of the Nile. For with us in Southern California, as well as in all arid America, water is the great and indispensable gift from the Creator to man, without which we cannot live. It is the "Life in Death" which brings life and beauty out of the death and desolation of the desert. And it would seem as though this great gift was to be again bountifully showered upon us. The New Year opens with every promise of it. We should have learned the lesson from the experience of the past year, that every drop of this precious gift should be saved and used. It is as wrong to waste it as it would be to open our veins and let the red life blood trickle away from us. SAVE ALL THE WATER. Can we save for use all the water that Nature gives to us here in Southern California? This is the great problem that now confronts the people, not only of Southern California, but of all Arid America. Will they solve it? The answer rests with them. They can solve it if they will. But to do so they must recognize and obey certain fundamental guiding principles, which can no more be disregarded than we can disregard the inexorable laws of nature, that we must obey to have health and strength. First, it must be recognized that water can no longer be a subject for speculation. The time for this has gone by forever. We must have water now, not to raise prices and sell land, but to irrigate land so it will yield its products, and those products we must sell in the face of constantly increasing competition. To meet these conditions we must keep down the cost of production, so that the producer will reap his harvest of prosperity. We must plan for the benefit of the producer, for the multitude must be producers. Unless they are prosperous no one else can be, and the great magnet that we must hold out from Southern California to attract are wealth producers from the soil by their own labor to secure irrigation without debt, by building with their own teams and machinery and labor the canals and ditches necessary for the distribution and actual delivery of the water to the irrigator who pours it on the land and uses it to raise fruits and grow crops. They encourage the investment of capital in legitimate irrigation enterprises for the construction of distributing systems by co-operative land owners' companies, for where it may be necessary to build such works with borrowed capital. The bonds issued by such companies can be made an absolutely safe investment, while it is beyond human ingenuity to give such safety to the bonds of a water right system or to the bonds issued under the wrecked and abandoned irrigation district system. We may be told that it may be difficult to carry out these broad and comprehensive plans. Is there anything worth having that is easy to get? The only difficulties in the way arise from a want of full information as to all existing conditions, and as to what the difficulties are that are to be overcome, and how to overcome them. Are we to quail before the difficulties of a problem which it needs only investigation, information and education to solve? I say no—absolutely and emphatically not! The genius of the American people, when it once sees the magnitude and far-reaching importance of the problem, will solve it. It is only needed that we should, as a nation, grasp the idea that it is not a local but a national problem, to insure its solution. We are fast coming to this point. As is said in the last report of our Secretary of Agriculture: "It is clear that a crisis has been reached in the life of the communities in which agriculture is dependent upon irrigation for its success. The laws and institutions relating to irrigation, which have grown up in these communities, have, in many ways, proved so inadequate and unsatisfactory that there is widespread feeling that radical and immediate action is demanded for their reformation. Unfortunately, the accurate information on which alone intelligent reforms can be based, is almost wholly lacking." "As the problems which confront these communities are, in a general way, the same, and, in many particulars, affect the national as well as local interests, it is highly appropriate that the national government should undertake investigations to aid in the solution of the problems of irrigation." "A many of these problems are directly connected with those in other agricultural lines in which this department and the experiment stations are working, it is my judgment that this department should be put in position to efficiently organize and conduct important investigations in this line." A movement for the creation of a Division of Irrigation in the Department of our cities, or the division of our territory into the troops. We need not and must not allow products of the alien labor of tropical lands to ever come in contact with the products of America. We need never confer these of citizenship upon alien races. But we can carry our compass among them, and encourage them grass by the maintenance of peace order under the folds of the Americas; against all the possible dangers of such expansion as this, as against all the evils of the degree of our race, either in the north or in our great cities, the rural areas is the national safeguard, and in arid America that the greatest utility offers for multiplying their millions. The upbuilding of such areas is a national duty, greater and urgent even than the building mighty navy to carry our flag on sea. If we would present nation we must preserve the race which gave us Washington coin and Grant, and we can only by a national policy of irrigation education which will enable overwintering a home on the land, to till the soil and achieve industrial independence in any home where he can get his own labor from his own tail. For, at the same time that they I am advocating offers a solution difficulties of the problem of sation, so it is likewise a solution problem that confronts us in increasing multitude who must their labor, and be mere wage earners who must find a job or starve, they can get a home on the land they can become independent workers, and live in comfort as they for their own toll. Create conditions which will prosperity on those who seek their nel of industry for a livelihood and you will need no other man draw people to the country and them there. Irrigation and extensive farm create closely settled rural counties, and country life need no lonely or isolated. The drift of the best educated thought of the country towards study for our children in the south and agricultural training for our ones is one of the most encouraging sees of a national awakening to importance of upbuilding the intellect and prosperity of those who do our rural homes, and multiply those homes throughout the land." First, it must be recognized that water can no longer be a subject for speculation. The time for this has gone by forever. We must have water now, not to raise prices and sell land, but to irrigate land so it will yield its products, and those products we must sell in the face of constantly increasing competition. To meet these conditions we must keep down the cost of production, so that the producer will reap his harvest of prosperity. We must plan for the benefit of the producer, for the multitude must be producers. Unless they are prosperous no one else can be, and the great magnet that we must hold out from Southern California to attract the well-to-do to come here from all over the world, is a fixed and permanent condition under which the rewards for the industry of him who tills the soil will always adequate, certain and assured. Water is the first element of production which man must here control, and in the proportion that it is made cheaper to the producer, just in that proportion can he cheapen his product and increase his profit. Water then should be made available to the consumer at the actual cost of the construction and operation of necessary distribution works, but without cost for reservoir storage. INVESTMENT OF CAPITAL. If private capital is needed organize your system on such a basis that its investment will be absolutely safe. When you do this you can get all the capital you need at a low rate of interest. But above all things stand by the law and the constitution as it is set forth in the celebrated decision of Judge Ross in Laning vs. Osborn. That decision, and the clause of our constitution making the use of appropriated water a public use, is the pillar of fire by night and the pillar of cloud by day which will guide us to a final successful solution of our irrigation problems if we will but follow it, and uphold it. Any irrigation system organized on the basis of selling water rights is a house built upon the sand. The land must own the water as an appurtenance forever. A water right system is the dream of the speculator and promotor. It is a delusion and a snare to both the capitalist and the irrigator. Let every system be organized as a co-operative system, with the stock appertinent to the land forever, and let those who use the water own the system, and share its benefits and bear its burdens in the proportion of their acreage holdings. If capital is necessary, a system so organized is the only one which can offer safe security for its investment as a loan. The only thing that does not fit to well with such a plan for co-operative systems is a speculator's profit, to be withdrawn today from the future profits of those who must hereafter till the soil. A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. To put the whole plan before you at once under which we should develop our water resources so as to give cheap water in abundance to the producers of Southern California, I will state it briefly, in outline: First—Storage reservoirs to be built by the federal government as a part of its established policy of internal improvements. The fair share of the aggregate sum disbursed by the nation for the construction of internal improvements which ought to go to the arid states and territories, to be used to build storage reservoirs within their respective borders, the purpose of such reservoirs to be to re-enforce the natural flow of the streams, and regulate their flow so that the waters now wasted in winter can be saved and used. "As the problems which confront these communities are, in a general way, the same, and, in many particulars, affect the national as well as local interests. It is highly appropriate that the national government should undertake investigations to aid in the solution of the problems of irrigation. "As many of these problems are directly connected with those in other agricultural lines in which this department and the experiment stations are working, it is my judgment that this department should be put in a position to efficiently organize and conduct important investigations in this line." A movement for the creation of a Division of Irrigation in the Department of Agriculture is gathering strong support, as the great national benefits that would come from its creation are being more widely understood. The splendid work done in the past to promote irrigation development by the United States Geological Survey is gaining for it more generous appropriations, and a period of actual construction has at last been inaugurated in the preliminary work begun on the Buttes reservoir in Arizona. The interest of the War Department has been enlisted through the appropriation made in the last River and Harbor bill to survey reservoir sites in Colorado and Wyoming, and the publication of the Chittenden Report, which strongly recommends the policy of building national storage reservoirs as internal improvements. CONQUEST ARID AMERICA. "Peace hath her victories as well as war," and as soon as the American people are once aroused to the fact that arid America offers more to the whole people as a field for national expansion and a reward for a policy of national development, than any foreign territory can offer, they will go at the problem of its peaceful conquest by building irrigation works with the same invincible determination that they showed when they were at last awakened by the shock of the destruction of the Maine, to the awful sufferings of the Cubans, and with the strength of a mighty giant roused from slumber swept the last vestige of the brutal barbarism of Spanish rule from our own continent and set up the standard of liberty in the Orient. And we need never pull it down, if we will only realize as a nation that this government rests upon the shoulders of its citizens, and that it will be strong if they are strong. The hope of this country is in its rural homes. Every such home is a safeguard of the nation. Our greatest danger lies in our great cities. You cannot regenerate them because they degenerate men, and breed all the social and political evils which threaten us. The city is the cause, the countrythe cure, for these evils. The dangers to be feared from tropical territorial expansion arise from a similar cause—a degeneration of the stalwart race that has reared the grand structure of our nation as it now exists. Rouse the whole people of this nation once to realize that if every acre of our present domain that is capable, with irrigation, of sustaining those who will till it were settled with a dense and prosperous rural population, such a population would be an anchorage forever for our liberties and free institutions, and irrigation and education would become the shibbooleth under which we would fight and conquer every evil threatened, either by the Your friends may smile But that tired feeling Means danger.

The fair share of the aggregate sum disbursed by the nation for the construction of internal improvements which ought to go to the arid states and territories, to be used to build storage reservoirs within their respective borders, the purpose of such reservoirs to be to re-enforce the natural flow of the streams, and regulate their flow so that the waters now wasted in winter can be saved and used when needed for irrigation, leaving the distribution of the waters to be regulated and controlled by state laws. Second—Great dams and diversion works necessary to lift the waters out of our rivers on to the lands, and main canals and pipe lines and distribution works which are beyond the scope of the co-operation of land owners, should be built and owned and operated and maintained by the State, just as they are in India by the British government. If California can own and build and operate water-fronts, and seawalls, and wharves, and ferry depots like that at the foot of Market street, lo San Francisco, there is no reason why it should not do the same with irrigation works, such as I have named. Third—Where the waters have been brought within the reach and scope of the co-operation of individual landowners, the works necessary for their further distribution, and their actual delivery to irrigators, should be built and owned and controlled by the irrigators themselves, through the organization of co-operative landowners' water companies, in which the stock will belong to the land. Such a united ownership of land and water has brought prosperity to communities in all lands and in all times wherever it has existed. What reasonable objection is there that can be raised to these propositions? They recognize and uphold every existing vested right to the use of water for irrigation. They promote the prosperity of the producer, and as the producer prosers, so must every one prosper. They enlist the co-operation of state and nation only to the extent necessary to bring the resources of nature within reach of individual enterprise. They stimulate individual enterprise by making it possible for it to reap the rewards of its own industry and energy. They enable those who Rouse the whole people of this nation once to realize that if every acre of our present domain that is capable, with irrigation, of sustaining those who will till it, were settled with a dense and prosperous rural population, such a population would be an anchorage forever for our liberties and free institutions, and irrigation and education would become the shibboleth under which we would fight and conquer every evil threatened, either by the That tiger is the dread disease known as consumption. It slays more men and women yearly than there are rain drops in a summer shower. It steals upon its victim with noiseless tread. There is a sure and certain protection against this deadly disease, and a sure and speedy cure for it, if it is resorted to in time. It is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. This wonderful medicine acts directly on the lungs through the blood, tearing down old, half-dead tissues, building up new and healthy ones, driving out all impurities and disease germs and expanding the lungs and introducing life-giving oxygen into the circulation. It has wonderful curative powers and allows all inflammation of the mucous membranes of the lungs and bronchial tubes. It makes the appetite keen and hearty, the digestion and assimilation perfect, the liver active, the blood pure and rich with the life-giving elements of the food, and the nerves strong and steady. It is the great blood-maker and flesh-builder. It has the most marvelous sustained powers of any known medicine. Thousands who were upon the verge of a premature grave have testified to their recovery through its wonderful virtues. Medicines dealers sell it, and have nothing else "just as good." When a dealer urges some substitute he thinks of the larger profit he'll make—not of your welfare. Dr. Pierce's book, "The Common Sense Medical Adviser," is a treasure in any family.

Senator Perkins has no good reason to be surprised at the action of the California Legislature in instructing its Senators to vote for the Paris treaty and against amendments. Surprise would have been in order if it had done otherwise. The state platform of the party controlling the Legislature and upon which the members of that body were elected contained a strong expansion plank, and expansion is also the policy of the Republican President. Why then should the Legislature be expected to take the contrary or Democratic attitude? Senator Perkins is wrong in thinking that there is a cheap labor immigration issue involved. The people of tropical countries do not go abroad to seek work, unless their own land is so overpopulated that they must do so or starve. The Filipinos never emigrated to Spain. They did not even offer to go to Hawaii, where they might have made long contracts to labor at fair pay. San Francisco and other Pacific Coast ports are open to them now and have been for years; yet, although citizenship has ever been at their disposal, but an immaterial few ever came here. The truth simply is that these people find all they want to do at home. They are only 9,000,000 strong, and areas in China similar to those which they occupy support nearly ten times that number of human beings. It will be generations before they become crowded; and, meanwhile, if the islands are annexed to the United States, their prosperity will be greater than that of the best paid laboring class here. Why, then, should any one suppose that annexation would bring them to this Coast to begin a struggle for existence against the Chinese and Japanese? It is also absurd to say that the free admission of Philippine sugar, which last year reached a total product of 210,000 tons, would either ruin or injure the beet-sugar industry of California. So long as the United States has to import 2,000,000 tons of sugar annually and is registering a larger per capita consumption of that product at each census there will be a market for all the sugar that California is likely to raise—and a market 8000 miles nearer by than that to be enjoyed by the Filipinos. All the arguments used against Philippine annexation from the standpoint of this State are so fictitious that it would have been natural in the Legislature, even if not bound by an affirmative platform, to vote in favor of it. Under the circumstances there was no other possible course.—Chronicle. STATE OF OHIO, CITY OF TOLEDO, 85. LUCAS COUNTY. Frank J. Cheney makes oath that he is the senior partner of the firm of F. J.

Our local train service is unexcelled for comfort.Day coaches are equipped with the celebrated Scairritt seats,Luxuriously upholstered,and passengers for Los Angeles are landed right in the center of the business part of the city-atFirst street or Commercial street-within a block large wholesale houses. Our connection at Mandeville for the famous gold mining.com is superb;good was crowned at Paris, a French king rode captive through London, a French emperor died in English captivity and his remains were surrendered by English generosity. Twice the English horse marched from Calais to the Pyrenees, once from the Pyrenees to Calais; the monuments of Napoleon in the French capital at this moment owe their preservation from German revenge to an English general. All the great disasters and days of mourning for France since the battle of Hastings—Tenchebray, Cressy, Poitters, Agincourt, Verneuil, Crevant, Blenheim, Oudenarde, Ramillies, Malplaquet, Minden, Dettingen, Quebec, Egypt, Talavera, Salamanca, Vittoria, the Pyrenees, Orthes, Waterloo—were gained by English generals, and won, for the most part, by English soldiers. Even at Fontenoy, the greatest victory of which France can boast since Hastings, every regiment in the French army was on their own admission routed by the terrible English column, and victory was snatched from its grasp solely from want of support on the part of the Dutch and Austrians.—Alison's "Life of Marlborough."
