Used The following bill for the leasing held by the United States in trust for the use of the states where it is derived, in the storage and distribu tion of water. Such use of the rent als will be the devotion of an exist ing public asset to a public purpose of supreme importance to the arid west, and will render unnecessary the demand that the taxpayers of the whole country be burdened for that purpose by Congressional ap propriations. “It is intended that the bill shall protect the forage of the public range, get revenue from its use, defend the rights of present free holders, exclude no existing inter est, however small, and shall ac- selerate settlement and tillage by eonservation of moisture and the support of irrigation. “With these ends in view, it is 'submitted to Congre»» by order of the American Cattlegrowers Asso- tiation, through its committee on legislation. :: “J ohn 1’ I rish , “Okland, California. 3 “H enry M.
