SEVERE ON SPECULATORS Condemns California Derelopment Company and Froposes' Great Ir- i ; rl gat Ion Scheme to Cover "Whole Lower Colorado Valley. WASHINGTON. Jan. 12. President Roosevelt today sent to Congress a special mess a are on the flooding' of the Imperial Valley in Southern California, in which he severely condemns the methods of the California Development Oompany. which owns the Irrigatton works, and recommends that the Gov- ernment buy out this company and Its subsidiary companies, make a treaty with Mexico to carry water through the territory of that Republic and con- struct great irrigation works to cover the whole lower valley of the Colorado and to permanently control that stream. He estimates the cost at 2.ooO.OOO, all Of which would be repaid by the set tlers in the same way as under the reclamation act. Me begin, toy deecrlblngr the situa tion in the Imperial Valley, as already published, lie tells how the Califor- nla Development Company dug a canal from' the river into the Sal ton Sink. passing partly through' Mexican terrl- torr. He says of this company: Hard on Development C'onipanj . The California. Development Company began Its work by making representation to possible ettlei-s of the great benefits to be derived by them by the taKlrtur up of tbts IUtkI. The claims were not only extravagant, tout tn many casea It appears ir.at willful ninrepiwtnation made. Many of the operations of thl cam- pony tended to m lslal uninformed Bettlc. A.t first the ouccera of the compmny wan cr-at n-n rl It disposed of water rthuj to settlers at price autflekntly large to obtain i fair revenue, etber in each or In securities of value. The money thus obtained from ettlem waw not uea in permanent development, but appar- ently disappeared, either In profits to the prin- c! pal promoter or in the numerous ubjiidlary eompBiilcs. which, to m. certnlrf extent. fol upon the parent company or served- to otxeure lt operations, The Mtory ot these deals ia oo cnmpUcated that It would require careful re- oearcb x.ten31nse through many months to un ravel the devious waya by which the money and securities hve dlsappeered. In brief. It tm sufficient to state that the valuable coMldta- tlono which were received from water right were obviously not used In provld Ins nccw.i7 and permanent works. The whole enterprise and the spirit of those promoting it aa wen as of the numerous Fmaller rcculU'.ra aitractnd to the subsidiary -organization were of the most vUlonery ohsrscter. Actual Investments have been mnall In proportion to estimates of wealth which seemed imlbk of realization. The company entered upon It corustruetlon worK with larjte plan. but with Inadequate capital. All of its etructurea for the control and distribution cf water were temporary In character, beins built of wood nd of the imall- t nosatble dlraenslonR. Through the effort thun made a large amount of land waa brought under cultivation and at one time It wae re ported that over loo.OOO actus were being more or 1 "r irrls.'.d. Vain Strngrglc AVltU Flood . He then tells how the river broke Its banks and flooiei .the valley, how the Southern Paoiti? Oomoany advanced money to the development company to re- pair the break, receiving a majority of stock as security : how the Southern Pa- citlc closed tlie break last November, but how a sudden r 1. -i o a. month later started tlie water again into toe valley, anil says that If the break- is not closed before the Sprinc flood In March, all thi property values In the valley, with GOoO to lO.COO population, will te wiped out, lie ;W-s that ultimately the channel in the main strpam will b- cjee-pened up to and beyond "Y mini, deatroylnK- thn boms and farms there, the great rallroHd bridge and the Government works al Lajruna Aam. Tlie Southern 'Pacific1, having already speni about sa.OOO.OCO for trie protection of iti interests, declines further aid to the de velopitifint company, and has joined the latter company and the ettlers in an ap peal to the 3o'verrment to onnslruet per manent works to restrain the river. Great Destruction Threatens. The Proptdent says that. If the river In not put back In It natural bed, it will not only flu tnc runner damage already mentioned, but will leave in a desert con dition. TCG.OOO acres of land an fertile us the Jlle Valley, capable of producing!" S lOO it year an acre, Th$ area Js c&paoic of adding at least to the permanent population of California and Arizona, and muoh of the land wl 11 be worth SSOO to 91000 an acre, or a total of $350,000,000 to i'MM. He says the Southern Pacific i now repairing levees to keep out the hiprh water due next March, but perma nent work" Is needed.' We would refund no money expended urlor to November is 1906. and would leave the amount to he paid for work done fIiics that date for future consideration.
