mittee on resolutions and Judge W. R.

ganization. The Oregon delegation is
working for Portland, for the next meet
ing place of the Irrigation Congress. El
Paso, Tex., seems to be our only com
petitor for the congress In 1904. The dele
gation Is also .doing good work for the
1905 Fair. There are about three times
as many delegates at this congress as at
the last, and great enthusiasm prevails.
A. KING WILSON.
OGDEN, Utah, Sept 15. Twenty-six
states and territories of the Union are
represented at the Eleventh National Irri
gation congress, -which began a four days'
session In the Ogden Tabernacle today,
this being the largest number ever rep
resented since the beginning of the move
ment for the reclamation of the arid. West.
So great Is the" number of delegates al
ready on the ground, with more coming in
on every train, that the seating capacity
of the Tabernacle is totally Inadequate.
Foreign Countries Represented.
An International aspect was lent to the
proceedings by the presence of two rep
resentatives of foreign governments,
Mexico and Prance, while the govern
ment at Washington 'was represented by
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson.
The keynote of the congress was ex
pressed both by Governor Wells of Utah,
in his speech of welcome, and President
W. A. Clark, In his .response, that "the
time has come to do things." In his
speech, Senator Clark took occasion to
advocate the repeal of the desert land act
of Congress which he alleged has re
sulted in the practical seizure of Immense
tracts of fertile land to the exclusion of
settlers. Over the resolutions favoring
this repeal, which are expected a sharp
fight is looked for.
Important results beneficial to, the cause
of Irrigation are confidently anticipated
by both delegates and officials from the
present congress, and the first resolution.
Introduced by Senator Burton of Kansas,
favoring the conserving of the flood
waters of the great rivers as a part of
the scheme of irrigation of the West,
was received with so much favor that
there seems to be no doubt such action
will be overwhelmingly favored. Other
resolutions outlining a distinct plan of
forest preservation are expected to be
adopted before the congress closes.
Tomorrow the subject of "Colonization"
will be taken up and discussed by men
prominent In railway and sociological
work.
Fight for the Next Meeting.
A brisk fight for the honor W entertain
ing the delegates to next year's convention
Is already under way. Up to this after
noon, El Paso, Tex., apparently had al
most a walkover, but late In the day the
Idaho delegation, one of the largest ot the
congress, unanimously resolved to sup
port and fight for Boise for the honor.
Reno, Nev., Is also making a brisk
fight while Portland has many friends.
No opposition to the present officers of
the congress has developed, and sentiment'
seems unanimous for the re-election of
President W. A. Clark and .other officers.
Although the first meeting was sched
uled for 9:30 A. M., it was considerably
after that time when President W. A.
Clark ascended the platform of the Tab
ernacle in which the meetings are 'to be
held and rapped for order. The venerable
president, John R. Winder, one of the
counsellors of President Joseph Smith, de
livered a brief invocation. ,
At the close of the invocation, Gov
ernor Wells of Utah warmly welcomed the
delegates In behalf of the pioneer Irriga
tion state. A welcome to Ogden was then
extended by Mayor William Glassmann.
" President Clark responded to these ad
dresses on behalf of the congress. Letters
from President Roosevelt and Secretary
Hitchcock were read. Both sent greetings
and expressed regret at being unable to
attend the congres.
Great Trained Chorus on Hand.
A trained chorus of 200 voices then sang
the National Irrigation ode, written by
Mrs. Gilbert McClurg- of Colorado
Springs. Fifteen hundred delegates and
spectators joined in the chorus to the tune
of "America," and the effect was tremen
dous. Mrs. McClurg was given an ova
tion at Its- conclusion.
It was 2:35 P. M. before the delegates
convened for tho afternooix session. The
president announced the receipt of a mes
sage from President Roosevelt showing
the close alliance between forest reserves
and irrigation. Its reading evoked much
enthusiasm. N
United States Senator Burton of Kansas
was then Introduced and delivered the
flrstformal address of the congress. His
subject was "Irrigation and the Conserva
tion of Water for the PrevenUon of
Floods."
Sent Their Regrets.
Letters and telegrams of regret were
read from Senator Chauncey M. Depew,
Senator T. M. Patterson of Colorado, F.
F. Shaughhessy, president of the Canadian
Pacific Railroad; D. R. Francis, president
of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition,
and President D. H. Moffatt of the Den
ver, Northwestern & Pacific. Railroad; C.
B. Boothe of Los Angeles and - E.- M.
Brannick of Portland, Or., were on the
programme for addresses, but neither
was present, and after brief musical ex
ercises the congress adjourned until 9:30
tomorrow, morning.
Tonight the most elaborate social fea
ture of the programme of entertainment
for the representatives was given In the
Klesel buildlngr consisting of a recep
tion and ball given by President Clark
and the citizens of Ogden.
FORESTRY IS ITS COMPAXIOX.
Roosevelt Says Irrigation Cannot
Succeed Unless Timber Is Saved
OGDEN, Utah, Sept. 15. The message ot
President Roosevelt to the Irrigation Con
gress this afternoon, dealing with the re
lation of the forest reserve to irrigation,
was as follows:
"OYSTER BAY, N. Y., Sept. 15. The
passage of the National irrigation law
was one of the greatest-steps not only
In the forward progress .of the states, but
to that of all mankind. It was the begin
ning of an achievement so-great that we
hesitate to predict the outcome, but it was
only the beginning. Now that the law Is,
an accomplished fact. It must be given ef
fect To that end, the reclamation service
organized under the National Irrigation
law of June 17, 1S92, has been pushing its
surveys and examination of possible irri
gation projects energetically in each of the
13 states and three territories named in
the act
A Study of the Projects.
"Some of the projects which promised
well at first are found on careful study
to be Impracticable, either because of
scanty water supply or of great cost;
others must await higher values In land,
while still others stand the test and are
ready for immediate construction. The
feasible projects are always large and
costly, because private enterprise has al
ready seized upon the smaller and less ex
pensive ones, leaving to the Government
great works which are to be an essential
part in bringing the nation to Its full de
velopment "Great care and the highest engineering
skill are required to plan and build such
works, which are among the most difficult
undertakings of mankind. They must be
built for permanence and safety, for they
are to last and spread prosperity for cen
turies. To design and build such works a
body of engineers of the highest character
have been brought together in the reclam
ation service, for only men impartially
selected for capacity alone are capable of
creating these great structures. Merit
must govern, not only In the selection of
men. but still more In the selection ofThe
projects. Every reclamation project se
lected for construction must possess the
qualities which commend it as a national
undertaking, certain to reclaim large
tracts of arid land, and to support in well
being a dense and vigorous population.
Disappointments in. Store,
"Vast though the benefits of the reclam
ation law will, be, there frill be many
disappointments, which necessarily await
both the advocate of speclaf projects, and
the men whose desire for accomplished re
sults outruns the alow and steady devel
opment of these great undertakings. It
should be borne In mind that a broad sur
vey of all possible projects gives the con
ception of their relative value, and a work
of prime Importance to one group of men
may seem less desirable in the light of
wider knowledge.
"Nor Is It "wise in large affairs to begin
construction first and elaborate details
afterward. Each Important point must be
carefully studied In advance, and the whole
plan tested and approved before work can
begin. Yet. If we proceed both cautiously
and persistently under this beneficent law.
we may confidently expect the largest pos
sible development of our arid landsr'and
their settlement by Industrious, prosper
ous, self-respecting men and women, who
will exchange the products of Irrigated
agriculture for the nroducts of mills, and
factories throughout- the United Statesrd
Communities flourishing In what is now
the desert will finally take their places
.among the strongest pillars of our com
.mon'wealth. "The Irrigation development of the arid
West cannot stand alone. Forestry is tho
companion and support of irrigation. With
out forestry, irrigation must fall. Perma
nent Irrigation development and forest de
struction "cannot exist together. Never
forget that the forest reserve policy of
the National Government means the use
of all the resources of the forest reserves.
There Is little profit In destruction com
pared with use.
"Ths settlement of "the great arid West
by the makers of homes Js the central
object both of the Irrigation and the for
est, policy of the United States. In for
estry, as In Irrigation, the Immediate pri
vate Interests of some Individual must
occasionally yield to their permanent ad
vantage, which Is the public good. The
benefits of forestry are not only for the
future, but for the present.
"The forest reserves are for all the peo
ple, but first for the people In the Im
mediate neighborhood, for whom supplies
of wood and water are among the first
necessities of life. With the wiser and
more skillful management of the reserves
by trained men, the greater, obviously,
will their usefulness be to the public. We
must never allow our chagrin at tempor
ary defeat and difficulties in the manage
ment of the foreign reserves to blind us
to the absolute necessity of these reserves
to the people of the West. Support of the
forest reserve policy has grown with won
derful rapidity In the West during the last
few years. It will continue to grow until
the last vestige of opposition, now almost
gone, has -wholly disappeared before the
understanding of the object and the effect
of the forest reservation.
"The greater the support of the forest
reserve by the people of the West, the
greater the assurance that the National
irrigation policy will not fall, for the pres
ervation of the forests is vital to the suc
cess of this policy.

District. Attorney .Says jfevr York
Voters Cannot Overcome Their
Disgust for the Man Lack
ing Leading: Qualities.
NEW YORK. Sept! 15. District Attor
ney Jerome, who is at his Summer home
in Lakeville, Conn., has written to a
member of the Citizens Union In this city
a statement of the reasons for his opposi
tion to ihe candidacy of Mayor Seth
Low for're-electlon.
"I have satisfied myself by careful In
quiry," says Mr. Jerome, "that the groat
mass of people to whom we must look
for support In the coming campaign be
lieve that Mr. Low cannot be re-elected,
and while they may give a half-hearted
support to him for the sake of the
cause, they cannot overcome their dislike
and disgust lor him."
The weakness of Mr. Low as a mayor
alty candidate, Mr. Jerome attributes to
"egotism, self-complacency and constitu
tional limitations.'' Mr. Low's recent
letter accepting the Indorsement of the
fuslonlst conference, Mr. Jerome says "is
destitute of every Indication of leader
ship." As for the attitude of President Roo3e
velt toward the municipal campaign, Mr.
Jerome says:
"If it has not been deliberately fostered,
certainly no effort has been made to check
the notion that Mr. Low Is approved by
the President, and that the President's
influence Is behind him, and each day this
Idea is hurting a man loved by many
who are opposed to him politically and
In a state, where, In his own time of trial,
he will desperately need every friendly
Influence he can have. I do not mean that
the President, as an Individual, disap
proves of Mr. Low or his candidacy. I
have nc authority or information to
speak on such a subject, but I have excel
lent reasons to believe that the President,
with perfect appreciation of the dignity of
his position, has abstained wholly from
any- expression of approval even to Mr.
Low himself. j
"'xnls notion of Mr. Low's letter about
an Independent Democrat is all non
sense," says Mr. Jerome. "We Democrats
who have worked for many years In fu
sion movements are not considering this.
We will heartily support a" Republican
even In such a year as this if we are
satisfied that next year he will not be
found presiding at Republican political
meetings and Is a man who has
elements of leadership and a sincece be
lief In honesty and non-partisan muni
cipal government."
Mr. Jerome reviews the "reasons for
our success In 1901," which he sums up
as "the accent of sincerity which was
felt to be true," and asks "how can vou
hope to win In a campaign whose flrst
keynote is Insincerity."
"If you could win," he added, "what
worth has such a victory? I have no pa
tience with this talk about a 'logical'
canmaate, wnicn term ne aenncs as "a
candidate whom they don't want but can
no't get rid of."
In summarizing Mr. Jerome says that
"Mr. Low should not be nominated be
cause of his personal unpopularity.
