Schmidt & Co., iragslats. j Three presidents of the United States have toured the arid region of the West In the past 12 years. The view which tiioy entertained of ir rigation, as disclosed In their speech es, furnishes a most Interesting gauge by which to measure the growth of that cause. Benjamin Harrison traversed the West 12 years ago, In ISM. The date or his trip was coincident with the earliest national organization looking to a development of a widespread public sentiment In aid of irrigation. At that time nobody seriously dream ed of a system of public works, and certainly not of n public works to be built by the nation. President Harrison marveled at the contrast between the desert and the garden wherever he behold the results of Irrigation. Ho paid many graceful compliments to the pioneers who una overcome natural dlflleiil-! ties and made the streams How out ; upon the land. But there wuh noiu-. lug, oltlior in his speeches or his con-' vorsatlon, to show that he had any ' appreciation of the fact that he was I In the presence of one of the tremon- i dous national issues of the future. Harrison No Irrlgationlst. On the contrary, he held to the 1 Eastern view that irrigation is a 1 poor makeshift for rain and ho was I plainly relieved when ho opened his ' eyes one morning to llnd himself! back in the rainfall region. This was at Hastings, Neb. There ho made1 a speech from the rear end of tho ; train and congratulated his hearers j on living In a place "whore God fur-i nlshes tho rain." Tho people np plaude l enthusiastically. At that I time tno name of irrigation had no j power to ovoko popular response any where, j McKlnley and the West. It was 10 years later when William j -McKlnley made much tho same trip that President Harrison had taken in 1S91. During the intervening decado' public sentiment had undergone a change concerning irrigation. Time had shown that tho reclamation of arid lands, and tho making of homes upon them, is a work which does not lend Itself to speculative methods, like mining and town-booming. It is a sober industrial process which pays enormously in the way of social and economic gains, but does not re turn glittering profits to the absen tee investor. Irrigation Is for tho ir rigator, not for the boomer, the pro moter and tho speculator. William McKlnley looked upon tho arid region with a vision which was denied his predecessor. He wns able to see that Irrigation possesses cer tain advantages over dependence on rainfalls and that tho day would como when it would present a practical Issue of stupendous moment. Ho said as much in his speeches and J went further in private. conversation But ho also added that it was a ques- tlon for the future which would he dealt wini after he had passed from tne stage or action. Roosevelt, the Champion. following McKlnley by only two years. Theodoro Hoosovelt beheld wave of public sentiment in beliaif of national irrigation. True, ho had done much to create this wave, both before and after his accession to the presidency. But no one man, oven If ho bo first in all tho land, makes American puuiic opinion. hi the two short years intervening between the visits of McKlnley and Hoosovelt the irrigation Idea took root and spread as perhaps no other social or economic proposition over did in this country in tho same space or tlmo. Tho president and his trav ollng companions looked ont and be held tho desert, as tho earlier presl dents and their friends had done. But they saw not the desert alon they had tho imagination and tho gift of prophecy to see the streams har nessed and (lowing, like bands of sil ver, across tho soli; to see tho brown waste give placo to field, orchard and garden; to mjc cactus, sagebrush and greasuwood fall back to mako room for red-roofed, vino-covered cottages. And in their ears was the murmur of moving waters and the laughter of happy children. William B. Smythe. WAGNER FESTIVAL.

The beer is cooled in plate glass rooms, in filtered air. The beer is then filtered. Yet, after all these precautions, every bottle is sterilized by Pasteur's process after it is sealed. I know that beer treated in that way is pure." Patient: "And is pure beer good for me?" Doctor: "It is good for anybody. The hops form a tonic; the barley a food. The trifle of alcohol is an aid to digestion. And the custom of drinking beer supplies the body with fluid to wash out the waste. People who don't drink beer seldom drink enough fluid of any kind. A great deal of ill-health is caused by the lack of it." Patient: "Hut doesn't beer cause biliousness?" Doctor: "Not Schlitz 15eer.
