HOMESTEADER INJUSTICES
Says Congress Passed More Lib

Passed by All Other Congresses
Ten Years Past
mi ■ **ms**__\
SALT LAKE City, Sept. 30.—With
a spectacular street parade embodying
all ths features of the carnival, the
first day of the twentieth internation
al Irrigation congress closed tonight.
- The morning session of tho four day
convention was held in the tabernacle,
where the delegates were welcomed
by local officials. This aftrnoon the
congress listened to addresses and re
. ports. Senator Smoo-t delivered the
principal speech. He declared the
homestead laws Inadequate and that
they work Injustices upon the home
atea-der, with the result that Ameri
can settlers are emigrating by thou
sands to Canada.
He declared that congress had
waked up to this fact and passed
more liberal land laws than had been
passed by all other congresses In the
putt ten years. He predicted that new
laws would soon put a stop to Can
adian emigration.
SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 30.—1n
the building of the Panama canr.l
and the carrying out of vast Irriga
tion projects, the efficiency of a Dem
ocratic form of government as a con
structive force in the world is on
trial, according to Senator Francis Q.
Newlands, who as president spoke to
day before the National Irrigation
congress.
Free Tolls for Coastwise Trade
At the outset Senator Newlands
said he opposed any attempt to im
pose heavy tolls on foreign ships for
their use of the Panama canal. "It
la desirable that this great national
public utility should In the end be
self-compensatory," he said, "and that
the tolls should cover administration
and create a sinking fund for Ihe
bonds. So far as our coastwise trade
is concerned, the canal should bo
a part of our inland waterways, upon
which it has been customary, not
withstanding the large expenditures
of the government in the interest of
navigation, to impose no restrictions
or furthens, but the loss occassional
by such remission should be frankly
Imposed upon the federal treasury
and not upon s.iips engaged in for
eign trade.
"Foreign countries could justly ob
ject to the imposition of the entire
cost of administration and bond re
demption upon foreign ships; they
cannot object to the payment of their
proper proportion, determined by
their relative tonnage."
Storage or Flood Waters
"The curbing of the Mississippi
river floods, and the generation of
great power from the conserved wa
ters are both prospective fruits of
the Irrigation projects," Senator New
lands said. He declared the storage
of water for power would reduce the
cost of storage of water for irriga
tion.
"Outside of the great basin all the
waters in the arid region are tribu
taries to great navigable streams and
there the national power regarding
storage and the utilization of water
rests not merely upon the ownership
of the public domain but upon the
nation's control of navigation and of
navigable streams under the Inter
state commerce power." he said. "The
development of such navigable rivers
with their source streams necessarily
involve the treatment of each river
and Its tributaries as a unit from
source to mouth and the complete
control of their waters in such a way
as to maintain an equal flow for
navigation. This Involves the lower
ing of the flood (low and the raising
of the ebb flow so as to secure a
standard flow suitable for navigation.
Leveo Protection
"Such control, therefore, necessarily
Involves not only as heretofore bank
and levee protection In the lower
reaches of each river with a view to
maintaining a fixed channel of suit
able depth, but also the control of
the flood waters above in the tribu
taries and source streams In such a
way as to mitigate the destructive
violence of the floods to prevent their
devastating flow to the ocean and to
hold the waters In suspense In the
protected forests, In the depths of
cultivated fields and In artiflclla res
ervoirs In such a way that they will
supplement the ebb flow of the river
In time of drouth and meanwhile be
used for bentlcial purposs in irrlga
gatlon and water power development.
Thus compensation can be secured
for water and power rights which
will tend to diminish the cost of the
control of the rivers for navigation
a- 1 at the same time we shall have
an e»_ual aud proportionate develop
ment not only of navigation but of
cultivation and power upon which Is
a large degree the prosperity of the
country depends. **fi

HAD HUNG
LIVELY TIME
-O.nel Roosevelt Heckled But
He Matches One Retort
With Another
STANDS GROUND UNTIL
DISSENTERS ARE QUIET
Picks Out Shouting Man in Crowd
and Says His Voice Is All Right
But He Is Appealing to His In
telligence
KNOXVILLE, Sept. 30.—A tumul
tous crowd gave Colonel Roosevelt
what he called a "middling lively
time" here today. Men scattered
through the crowd heckled him and
succeeded In raising an uproar, which
for a time drowned out any attempt
on Mr. Roosevelt's part to go on with
his speech. He stood his ground and
matchod one retort with another un
til he had silenced his dissenters. The
ex-congressman had hardly intro
duced the colonel when a score ol
men started to shout Governor Hoop
er's name. .
"Saying he pinned his faith on the
commandment, "Thou shall not
Bteal," Mr. Roosevelt Baid he had not
intended to mention Hooper's name.
"You people who shout hurrah for
Hooper," said the colonel, "are you
going to say down with the eighth
commandment?"
There were cries of "No."
"Well, then," the colonel continued,
"the theft of a purse Is no greater
than the theft of a nomination."
Mention by Colonel Roosevelt, wh,i
stated that Governor Wilson had
placed himself In opposition to pro
gressive legislation, brought forth
cries of "Hurrah for Wilson."
"Then hurrah for abolishing any
law that limits the power of the
sweatshop owners over women," he
shouted back. The cries continued.
The colonel singled out a man who
was making the most noise.
"Your voice Is all right, but I am
trying to appeal to your lntellig-nce,"
he cried. The crowd cheered and the
colonel was not interrupted again.
THREE CONVICTS MAKE
ESCAPE FROM QUARRY
Pursued by Deputy Sheriffs and
Tracked by Bloodhounds
to Pomona
Whereas there were seventeen state
convicts at work at the Selah quarry
yesterday, now .here are but fourteen.
Three of them jumped the job short
ly after i o'clock yesterday afternoon
and had not been re-captured at 11
o'clock last night
More than an hour elapsed before
word of the escape reached the office
of Sheriff J. W. Day in this city.
Deputy Sheriffs Hightmire, Hahn,
Dew and Redhead, went to the quarry
at once in the county automobile.
Two bloodhounds, Queen and
Rambler, were taken along. The dogs
took the scent and trailed the three
convicts up the river to Pomona,
where the trail was lost. A freigVit
train passed along on the Northern
Pacific at about the right time for
their purpose, and it Is believed by
the offlcals that the convicts got
aboard and made their escape into
the wilds of Kittitas county.
The names of the men are as fol
lows: Charles Sherman, No. 6048;
sentenced from Spokane county for
second degree burglary to serve from
five to fifteen years; William Camp
bell, No. 5596, Spokane county, f've
to six years, robbery; Tom Nolan,
Spokane county, five to twenty years,
robbery.

Next Few Days

PHEASANTS AND DUCKS
Warden Bryant Has an Encounter
at Midvale With Men Who Re
sist Arrest and Threaten to
"Get" Him
Four thousand men nnd women in
Yakima county have taken out hunt
ing licenses. Half the number Will
be out in the fields and nt the ponds
today, it is estimated, when tho re
strictions are taken off pheasants and
ducks. All the others will be out at
least once each day within, the next
fifteen days which constitute the open
season on pheasants.
In addition, It Is asserted, there will
be a few hundred others who will at
tempt to hunt without licenses or hy
uslng a borrowed permit. Between
railroad fares, ammunition, arms,
food, automobile and livery hire and
such essentials, the hunters of the
county will spend $20,000 before the
sport is a month older, it Is declared.
Every bird taken will have cost ten
times Its food value.
Big Expenditure
"When, by rare of the game birds
during the closed season, by the
planting of a quarter of a million
fish annually and by a few other In
expensive precautions," said an au
thority yesterday, "this county will
have regained its reputation as a fts'i
and game country the annual expen
diture will run Into a hundred thou
sand dollars.
"Already this season It has hecomo
known that sportsmen fi-oni Spokane,
Tacoma. Seattle and other of ' the
larger cities are to come to Yakima
for a chance at the pheasants. In
time it will be realized. Hint their
J.rescncft" meai.s uiiiiie and buslnou
Instincts will afford the birds nnd
fish tho protection they are not now
Retting."
There will be hunters everywhere
