" ' III I I 10,
The stubborn and unequal contest
at Hunker Hill was one of the things
which gave us a country to work Tor,
ami the long-sought victory of nation
al irrigation was certainly one of the
most Important steps In that coun
try's development.
The irrigation law Imposes a henvv
responsibility upon the secretary or
the Interior. That already busy offi
cial is charged with the work of so
I feting the projects to be undertaken,
j fixing the size of homesteads which
I '"ay be taken up on the public lands
to be reclaimed and making rules and
I regulations ror tho use and dlstribu
I thin or the water supply. The tnsk
is an arduous anil, in some ensos, a
delicate one. since there are often
conflicting Interests that must be rec
onciled. All Cannot Be Accommodated.
Furthermore, It is obvious that
with a limited amount of money at
his command the secretary can not
builds works everywhere at once.
Western communities are proverbi
ally enthusiastic over their own local
advantages. The people of each val-
ley are prone to believe that theirs
is a little the best valley In all the
West, and that they enjoy tho glori
ous nrlvlh'L'o nl ltvlniT nn tho "Miofit '
soil that ever lay out doors."
Hence, they arc bound to bo dlsap-1
pointed when tho Interior department
makes It necessary, but always dif '
llcnlt, choice between the claims of j
rival localities. It Is a case where '
"many are called, but few arc chos-1
en." And so It must bo unless tht
nation shall some day decide to enter
upon the work on a much greater I
scale. i
Secretary Hitchcock committed the,
details of the new policy lo tho geo- j
logical survey, which has long been
dealing with hydrographlc problems
In the West and whose founder, the
late Major John AVesley I'owoll. was
the lirst scientllic man to ooinprc-1
hend the economic value of the arid,
region. '

"United Stales icelamation service
Frederick II. Newell, who lias been In
flimae nr water Investigations ln the
survey, was made ehier of the new ,
service. He has been trained for a
dozen jears fur just such an oppor i
tunlty as has now come to hint and i
the friends of irrigation are profound
ly pleased with tho choice I
Mr Newell was contronieu wiiu w
task of organizing and betting in mo
tion a very large undertaking. Its
field of operations Is half a coutluent
Its contemplated expenditure will
run into tens of millions. And the
number of people whose weal or woe
will ultimately depend upon tho wis
dom nml honesty of the administra
tion of this work will be equal to
the total population of many an
American state and many un Euro
pean nation, in other words, It is a
big thing, requiring the services or
big men.
Mr Newell had the advantage or
wide familiarity with the conditions
of the arid toglon to begin wlui. He
was thus able to direct the prelimin
ary Investigations with Httlo loss of
time or money. To this end. he
brought together largo numbers ot
bright young men from various parU
of the country and set thcra at work
measuring streams, surveying reser
voirs and canal sites and ostimutlnfc
the cost and efficiency of the first
proposed works.

USE PURE ICE INSTEAD.
Don't Run Any Risk Use Ice From
Boiled and Distilled Water.
"Owing to the low stage of the
water In the city well It has been
found necessary lo pump some of the
supply from the channel of tho river.
For this reason it Is thought best by
Dr. Colo, tho city health officer, to
call tho attention of tho public to
the advisability ef boiltnsr the water
used for drinking purposes." K. 0.,

Hotter use puro Ice, made from
water that has been both boiled and
distilled. It Is cheaper than you can
