Accept my hearty good wishes. Nothing has been done In which I have taken a -greater Interest during my administration than the inauguration of Nationally aided irrigation. , THEODORE ROOSEVELT. COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Oct. 6. The tenth National Irrigation Congress opened at 2 o'clock this afternoon un der circumstances especially auspicious. Great significance is lent to what will be done this year through the fact that the irrigation movement has been taken out of the sphere of merely a propaganda and given a National importance1 through the action of the last Congress lh passing a bill authorizing the proceeds from the Bale of state lands o be used fpr irriga tion purposes In the several states. Preldent Thomas F. Walsh, of the con gress, arrived In the city yesterday, and found everything In readiness for the three days' convention. Delegates poured In by every train, and this year's con gress is the most largely attended ever Held. President Roosevelt sent a message of congratulation and cordial sympathy to be read before the convention. The morning wa3 taken up with the re ception of delegates from all parts of the West, morning trains having brought large delegations from Minnesota, Ne braska, Utah. Oregon. California and Ari zona. The New Mexico delegation reached the city yesterday, ex-Governor L. B. Prince, vice-president of the congress, be ing among those here. The personnel of this congress is regarded by all those In attendance as decidedly higher In char acter than that of any previous irrigation gathering. Thomas F. Walsh, president of the congress, said this morning: "I look for the most successful gather ing in the history of- the irrigation move ment." The congress opened with an invocation by Dr. Edward Braislln, pastor of the . First Baptjst Church of Colorado Springs. Addresses of welcome by Governor Or- man, of Colorado; President D. Pair- ley, of the Colorado Springs Chamber of Commerce;1 Mayor John Robinson, for the City of Colorado Springs, and I. N. Ste vens, editor of the Colorado Springs Ga zette, for the press, were responded to. by President Walsh, formerly of - Colo rado, now of Washington, on behalf of the Irrigation Congress and the American Forestry Association, which joins in this convention. Daniel L. Lawler, of St. Paul, told elo quently of Minnesota's interest in Irriga tion, and of her desire to co-operate with the West as a whole in bringing the great est possible good out of the opportunities that present themselves: . He said in part: VIn this question there are no party lines defined. Democrats and Republicans compose this delegation, and as a faithful member of the former party, I wish to say that the members of the Minnesota delegation, of whom four are members of .the Lower House, worked and stood for the Irrigation act. The Irrigation bill makes possible a greater America." Representative Shafroth, of Colorado, in his address paid a glowing tribute to Ga lusha Grow, of Pennsylvania, the man who was the father of the homestead act in 1S6L and who also voted for the Irriga tion act In 1902; to Senator Carey, of Wyo ming, who started and continued the fight for the arid lands; 'to George Maxwell, of Chicago, Tvho has done invaluable work among the commercial organizations of the country In bringing their influence to bear upon Congress; to Chief Hydro grapher F. H. Newell, of Washington, whose idea is worked out in the irriga tion act providing for applying money from the sale pf Government lands to the uses of irrigation; to SenatoT; Dietrich, pf Nebraska, whose exertions in calling to gether Senators and Representatives be tween sessions of Congress had much to do with the ultimate success of the Irri gation advocates; to Representative James A. Tawney, of Minnesota, whose resource fulness and untiring energy overcame the opposition of such men as Grosvenor of Ohio, Hepburn of Iowa, Payne of New York, Cannon of Illinois and Dalzell of Pennsylvania. This evening at the Antlers there was a public reception tendered by the Cham ber of Commerce of Colorado Springs to President Walsh and the vltftnrs ti ball was attended by Colorado Springs' iuti uiens, ana was one of the most enjoyable social functions In the history of the city. ADDRESS OF THE PRESIDENT. -Natloal Irrigation Policy Maries a Nevr Era for America. COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.. Oct 6. "The Humanitarian Aspect of National Walsh's address. He said: "Gentlemen of the Convention We are here not to merely discuss measures, to formulate resolutions and to map out a plan of campaign, as we have so often done on former occasions. But we are here, first of all. to celebrate a great victory to rejoice at the birth of a new policy which National irrigation congress es have given to the Nation. It is a happy hour In the history of the great West." After paying a tribute to the "patriotic, far-sighted and enthusiastic men who In augurated this movement a dozen years ago. and referring to the wort: of the National Irrigation Associations as an auxiliary and coworker of this congress. President Walsh said: "There could have been no substantial success at this day had we not been ex tremely fortunate in the character" of our public men at Washington. First and foremost, our grateful acknowledgments are due to Theodore Rooeevelt, President of the United States. His message to Congress, in- December, 1901, marked the beginning of a new epoch In the history of Western America. It placed the 'cause of National irrigation in a; position where It could no longer be denied, a hearing. Without the powerful aid of. the Adminis tration we could not have postlbly suc ceeded In inaugurating the new policy at Ed early a day. With, all due regard to fiiritchi'snriiWi his other achievements and the Import ance of other subjects, both of domestic and foreign concern, I do not hesitate to say that, in my opinion, when the history of "President "Roosevelt's first adminis tration shall be written, the passage of the National irrigation act will be found to be the peculiar story of his statesman ship. Means Mack to Nation. "The Inauguration of the National Irri gation policy means a great deal to all our states. It will add immensely to their wealth and population and greatly broaden the basis of helr prosperity. It means even more to the Nation as a "whole. It opens the way to a new era of internal development and domestic ex pansion as great as any similar period of its magnificent past. It is ' equivalent to the addition of a new empire as inde pendent as that drained -by the Mississippi River and Its tributaries. ''But these are not the considerations which are uppermost in my mind as 1 "contemplate the results to flow from this new policy. It is what may be called the humanitarian aspect of National irriga tion, which quickens my pulse and makes me desire to dedicate myself anew to the PRINCIPAL OFFICERS OF THE NATIONAL IRRIGATION CONGRESS Thomas F, Walsh, of Washington, D. C, President. work In which we are engaged. The In auguration of National Irrigation means that .every family in the United States which wants a home upon the soil may have one. It means that the door is open to permit the man who is "not need ed where he is, to go to the place "where he is needed. It means the restoration of those automatic social conditions which In past generations relieved the pressure of population upon the old centers and constantly extended the frontier of civili zation toward the North, the South, and the West. We stand upon the threshold of another great colonization movement, made possible by the glorious fact of Na tional Irrigation. "It is not. however, to broad moves of population "that I especially desire to di rect your attention in the brief time at my disposal. It is not the dream'of em pire that may come to a great nation with the conquest of a territory wherein a hundred millions will some time dwell, which appeals to my Imagination. But it is the dream of home and independence which will come to many a struggling family with the .announcement that one more valley of arid America has been thrown open to settlement at the actual cost of reclamation. "Without attempting to elaborate the idea, I undertake to say that there is something In the heart of the dullest man who ever Jived that responds to the beau ties of nature. I llrmly believe that it is this Instinct that Is sending the well-to-do from the cities to the country and which in the next few years vili make th.e: reclaimed areas of the arid West sought after by the very best elements of our middle-class population. The man who rears h- sons and daughters in the rural life of our Irrigation empire will give them a better chance to become useful men and women than boys and girls will havo when raised in the city; a better chance, even, than young people enjoyed in the brave old days of which we read in the biographies of our great men. ' "Let me show what I mean. The irri gated farm is necessarily a small farm. The same farm means plenty of neigh bors, and that, in turn, means social ad vantages wnlch were not within reach of country people in the boyhood .days of Garfield. Lincoln and others of their gen eration. The boys and girls of arid America will have the intellectual stimu lus which goes with neighborhood asso ciation. Thus they gain one of the chief advantages for which so many are rush ing into the towns. But this is only half of their advantage. The other half Is the Industrial Independence and the glorious contact with nature which come'wlth life on the irrigated farms. What Is Means to Nation. "What does It mean to the Nation to have millions of people gradually pass from the service over to the sovereignty of the -country? It means, my friends. the enlistment of a new army for the defense of the Republic In every hour of need. GUe a man a home upon the soil and you have made him the patriot who will defend your Institutions at the ballot box and on the battlefield. Open the doors of the West and you need not worry about the future. Let the people have access to the land and most of our other troubles will settle themselves. The., property-owner Is a conservative man, who loves his family and his country. Then let the property-owner be as numer ous as possible. "There has never been a time In the history of the world when private be nevolence was so common or so generous as it is today. Philanthropists are pour ing out their means to build colleges, hos pitals and libraries. This Is a worthy .work, which we cannot too highly com mend. But I want to avail myself of this opportunity to say there is no field where benevolence could accomplish so much as in assisting the reclamation and settle ment of our great arid region. First, the propaganda which this congress has car ried on for so many years might well be endowed with a fund whleh would enable us to Increase the scope and, efficiency of our work a hundredfold. Then we must doubtless devise a means by which the poor man's family may be helped to get a home on the soil. Government land at actual cost does not wholly solve the problem. There are railroad fares' to be met, homes to be built, lands to be Im proved and mouths to be fed before the lands come into bearing. Thus the prob lem of colonization is. by no means wholly solved by putting the water on the land. I do not see how a man could .have a nobler monument than a colony of happy families or even one family enjoying the security of life on the Irrigated farm as the result of his assistance. Utah as an Example. V "If you ask me for an example of what might be accomplished in this line, I point you to the irrigated valleys of Utah. These were settled by comparatively poor men, many of. whom were assisted by a powerful organization. They live on small farms. They enjoy economic Independence "by the simple method of producing the variety of things which they qpnsume. They Uve chiefly In villages, and so have social advantages not usually within reach of farming communities. It is an amazing statement, but the United States census vouches f of its verity, that of their 20.000 farms. 19,000- are wholly free from in cumbrance. "I love to think of these green oases among the Utah Mountains. If dark hours shall ever come to the Republic, the dwellers In these loVely valleys will know nothing of It except from hearsay. They will continue to Jive on the fat of the land as long as water runs down hill. Working for themselves among their homes and living In the midst of con genial neighbors, what have, they to fearV Now think of arid America, with its hun dred million acres of irrigated land, as densely Eettled as those Utah valleys. Think of the people who combine social advantages of town with the Independ ence of the country. Think of them with their dally newspapers,- their telegraphs and telephones, and their rapid means of transportation for products and people, and then realize thafunder the plans we propose the humblest citizen of the Re public can pass at will from the discour aging conditions of town life if for him they are discouraging to the Inspiring and hopeful opportunities of. this new prom ised land. "It Is when I think of It In this way Ex-Governor L. Bradford Prince, of Santa Fe, N. Mv First Vice President. that my enthusiasm is kindled until mind and heart are ablaze. I thank God that I have lived to see the great policy of National irrigation actually inaugurated. I thank God that I have been permitted to have a humble part In bringing It about. "And, my friends, let us not permit our selves "to think that our labors In this great work are ended. On the contrary, let iis with patriotic zeal dedicate our selves anew to its advancement. Let us continue to use our Influence In keeping it upon a National plan, In locating the first reservoirs to be built where the con ditions for insuring success are perfect, In seeing that the farms created go to actual settlers only; In bringing to the attention of the fortunate and benevolently inclined the great opportunity for doing lasting good In helping worthy families to settle upon these new farms, In the building of good roads, the planting of trees, the preservation of the forest, the beautify ing of country homes; In utilizing the powers of nature and the modern Inven tions of man to make country life and country homes In every way attractive .and Inviting. "You could not be engaged in a more noble work than that which you have come here today from your distant homes to deliberate upon. It is truly heaven's work, because its beneficent result will last as long as humanity itself; it is heaven's work because In addition to add ing great wealth to the Nation It will benefit the homeless and the unfortunate of God's children and God will surely bless the 'Government, and the people will carry It to a successful fruition." BIG TELEPHONE SUIT. Chicago Company Slay Have to Pay Out $1,000,000. CHICAGO, Oct. 6. A decision rendered by Judge Tuley today In a suit Instituted by the Illinois Manufacturers' -Association may, it is estimated, cost the Chicago Telephone Company more than $1,000,000, unless the Supreme Court reverses the Judgment of Judge Tuley. t Judge Tuley's order permits the parties to the suit against the telephone company to secure the return of the funds allocs to have been collected In excess of the irancnise rate. The construction placed on his decision by attorneys for the com plainants Is that 5000 or 6000 telephone les sees may come into tne suit and become parties to It, whether they are members of theManufacturers' Association or not. NEW SMELTER COMPANY. Coal Lands and Gold and Silver De posits Will Also Be Worked. DENVER.

The mines are nearly 200 miles from a railroad, and only the richest of the ore has been 1 shipped out. The plans of the new com 1 pany Include the building of a smelter at j the mines or some near-by point. The i company has also acquired 4000 acres of ! coking -coal land near Ncgales, which the company will develop for Its own use. j From present prospects work on the prop erties and general operations of the com j pany will be under way by January 1, j 1903.

Special attention was also given to the question as to the advisability of so amending the organic act as to require the organization of county and municipal organizations, and much testimony was taken bearing on this question. "As yet," said Senator Mitchell, "the committee has had no opportunity what ever to discuss any of- the subjects Into which It has been Inquiring, much less to come to any conclusion In regard to any of these subjects, and will not ake the same up for consideration until Washing ton is reached.
