Is is free from partisanship and sectionalism and shows that the President has the heart. It Interests of all the people-aIs broad and comprehensive, direct and yet statesmanlike. It is couched in vigorous English and leaves no room for doubt as to his attitude on the questions touched upon. His views are sound, replete with good common sense, and in most instances will meet the approval of the people generally, regardless of their political affiliations. Altogether it is. an able document and should.be read and studied.

That is good. If they do so and show the same kind of spirit as was evinced at the meeting held in Washington on Monday and attended by Senator Kearns and others, the results may be very beneficial for Utah and other States where irrigation is a necessity to agriculture. The attitude of President Roosevelt on the matter as portrayed in his message, to Congress is very encouraging. Coming out squarely as he did it favor of the Government erecting reservoirs cannot help but have its effect. I F. I !
