EUGENE, OREGON, FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 13, 1909 NO. 188 eite i An?- The session of the court of inquiry Ltb of Lieutenant Sutton reached the concluding then Henry B. Davis, counsel for Mrs. Sutton, the dead officer, summed up his case. The announce- Ldge advocate, that he would present no argument, laced upon him (Davis) a burden he had not looked st back to the coming of Sutton to Annapolis, and L as a "mother's offering to her country's service." to Lieutenant Sutton's hopes and aspirations, as letters to his family, and to events of the day be- ;edy, arguing that everything tended to negate the tton committed suicide. He criticized the composi riginal board of inquiry, of which the recorder was S. Willing, but for whose dereliction Davis said still be alive. The board of inquiry he said acted haste, with no notice to Sutton s family, placing brand of suicide, thus denying a Christian burial the family faith, and consigning him to an unconse- stripping his parents of the hope of reunion with kr, and condemning him, as they were compelled eternal punishment.

An annual appropriation of ten million dollars for a period of five years to aid in irrigation work is asked of congress in resolutions adopted by the National Irrigation Congress today. This perhaps most important recom mendation in resolutions was adopted, of which the following is a synopsis: That homesteaders under a government project shall not be required to establish residence before the government is pre pared to furnish him with water; that the government take measures to drain swamp lands in aid of land reclamation and of public health; that the irrigation congress act with other conser vation organisations to bring about waterway improvements; reforestation and other like projects; that there be brought about surveys and estimates of reclamation of submerged lands where the worn is international in character (this refers to Nor thern Idaho more especially) ; that the reclamation act be ex tended to Hawaii, that the different states pass laws regulating the cutting of all public and private timber; that there should be no political lines with reference to the use of water for irriga tion; that the Mississippi deep waterway be developed. The committee turned down the resolution asking for a five million dollar bond issue after a severe debate, in which some of the Washington delegates upheld the measure. No hint of the Ballinger-Pinchot differences came up in committee. Professor W. D. Lyman spoke on the subject of "Deep Waterways for the Inland Empire."
