The
West twelve years ago. in 1.39.!
lth the
date of his trip was coincident
to a, development of a widespread pub»
Ilc sentiment in aid of irrigation. At .‘
that time nobody seriously dreamed of .
a system of public works, and certainly
not of a public works to be built by tho
naflon.
President Harrison marveled at the
contrast between the desert and the
garden wherever he behold the results
of irrigation He paid many graceful
compliments to the pioneers who had
overcome natural amenities and made
the streams flow out upon the land But
there was noihlng, either in his speech-
oa or his conversation. to show that be
had any a inflation of the fact that
he was in he presence of one of the
tremendous national issues of the fu-
ture.
On the contrary. he held to the east-
ern view thatirrigailon is a: poor
makeshift for rain and he was plainly
relieved when he opened his eyes one
morning to ilird himself back in the
rainfall region. This was at Hastings.
Nebraska. There he made a speech
from the rear and of the train and con-
gratulated his hearers on. living in a
lace “where God furnishes the rain."
be people applauded enthusiastically
At that time the name of irrigation had
no power to evoke popular response
anywhere. .
McKinley and the Want.
it was ten years later when William
McKinley made much the same trip
that President Harrison had taken in
l891. During the intervening decade
public sentiment had undergone a
change concerning irrigation. Time
had shown that the reclamation of arid
lands. and the making of homes upon
them Is a work which does not lend
Itself to speculative methods, like min
lag and town- -.boomlirg it is a sober,
industrial process which pays cnor
mously in the way of social and econ-
omic gains. but does not return gilt
erlng profits to the absentee investor.
Irrigation is for the Irrigator. not for
the boomer. the promoter and the spec
ulator.
William McKinley looked upon the
arid region with ‘a vision whichwae dc-
nlod his predecessor, lie was able
t.o see that irrigation possesses certain
advantages (not dependence on rain-
falia and that the day would come
when It Would present a practical In
sue of stupendous moment. He said
as much in his speeches and went fur»
ther In private conversation. But he
also added that it was a question for
the future which would be dealt with
after he had passed from the stage of
action. Few men have had so rare a
faculty as McKinley for understanding
the real condition of public opinion and
keeping abreast of It. rather than so
far in scheme that their utterances
could have only academic value. And
yet this time even McKinley was do
delved—he. did not know the strength
of the nationalxirrigation sentiment.
nor did he appniclato how nearly ripe
was the new issue.
Roosevelt. the Champion of lrflgatlon.
Following McKinley by only two
years. Theodore limrsevclt behold a
wave of public sentiment in behalf of
national irrigation. True, he had done
much to create this wave. both before
and after his accession to the presi—
dency. But no one man. even if he
be first In all the land, makes American
. public opinion.
In the two short years intervening
between the visits of McKinley and
Romvolt the irrigation Idea took root
and spread as perhaps no other social
and economic proposition ever did in
this country in the same space of time.
The President and his traveling com-
panlona looked out and beheld the dos-
art as the. earlier presidents and their
friends had done. But they saw not
the desert aloncmihey had the imagina-
tion and the gift of prophecy to see
the streams» harnessed and flowing. like
bands of silver. across the soil: to see
cactus, sagebrush and greasewood fall
back to make room for red-roofed. vine-
covered cottages. And lo: their care
was the murmur of moving waters and
the laughter of happy children.
Future Swings ’Round the circle.
What President Roaevelt and his
companions beheld in imagination. the
. next President who tours the arid re-
gion will know by the evidence of his
senses. For the American people have
decreed that the thing shall be done.

Robert G. ilanford is erecting a large
and handsome green house on his prop-
erty to issues place. The structure is
ito foot long by twenty feet wide. and
was purchased from Lord & Burnham,
of lrvlngton. N. Y. This green house
is built in sections in such a manner
that the framework can readily be put
together, and now a force of men from
the lrvlugton shop are at work on It.
and expect to have it fully completed
within two weeks. The ventilating
arrange-maple are quite slmplc and the
entire row of windows lorulcd near
the top can be opened by the operation
of two cranks. The framework bf the
structure is not entirely completed.
and after this the glass will be pill in
in connection with this affair Mr. Hans
ford is installing a new heater that will
furnish the necessary warmth for two
green houses in winter, thus reduc-

minimum. The new greenhouse will
be put to actual use about October 1.

HAMPTON FOR YACHT RACES. .
Steamboat Company Will Run Excur-
aIOn to Sandy Hook If Delired.
The Norwalk Steamboat Company
has received a proposition from New
York parties to charter the Hampton
for the international yacht races. The
company has thought that perhaps
some local people would like to have
this privilege and they have comment
eater! with the Norwalk and South
Norwalk Clubs and the Norwalk Yacht
Club as the organisations most likely
to take the matter to hand. It is
doubtful if enough people could be se-
cured in The Norwalk to charter the
boat- for all of the races. . it is-proba-
ble that a large excursion could be
made up for one or two of the days.
