CALL BUREAU, HOTEL BARTON, WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.—President Roosevelt is not likely to bring about a change in present tariff schedules within the next two years without a ff war within the Repubiican and the “high priests” of high protec- tion on the other.

Rep- resentative Hepburn, one of the ultra- rotectionists, of lowa, talks in a milar vein. Both iusist that the tariff was an iseue in the recent campaign and that the people spoke very em- phatically against any change. The situation is not unlike that which developed at the beginning of | the struggle for Cuban reciprocity | three years ago. President Roosevelt found himseif opposed by every high i tariff man in Senate and House. The entire House leadership of the Fifty- sixth Congress came here to fight the Executive’s proposition for reciprocity with Cuba. One after another they the bill died in the Senate. Mr. Roose- velt won his point, however. The coming struggle, under the changed ccnditions which the Presi- dent's tremendous vietory has brought about, is likely to be one of the inter- esting phases of the new administra- tion. Representative Dalzell, after stating that protection was one of the prin- cipal issues in the last campaign and that he had voted for it, said: “It is hard to discuss the matter at this time, since it will be impossible year.” —_————— It's a sure sign that a man is grow- ing old when he begins to tell you he feels as young as he ever did.

From this southern untry there were shippeq in 1903 over 27,000 carloads of citrus fruits alone, 141 carloads of wine and brandy and over 3000 carloads of Outside San Francisco the bank clearances of Los Angeles exceeded those of any other city west of the Rocky Mountains.

TLet us see how this advance in material | proeperity coincided with an advance In the lse of irrigation. As might be expected, uthern California leads in the percentage of jmproved acreage under irrigation, with the Joaquin_Valley a clcse second and the cramento Valley a poor third. The number of Irrigators south of Tehachap! in 1900 was 10,254, with 663 for the San Joaquin Valley and only 2799 for the Sacramento Valley. What a future for the great Sacramento V. ley, when her irrigation possibilities are real- fzed; when, instead of less than 5 per cent of her Improved acreage under irrigation, she | has mearly 25 per cent. as in Southern Cali- fornia: when her fertiis farms wiil bring in a profit of over $20 per acre and the average farm is reduced from a square mile to the | Atty-six acres which prevailed in_ 1900 in the frrigated districts of this State. It is easy to see that hundreds of thousands would be added to_her population and millionsto her wealth. | The communities in California that have | taken up irrigation have rous beyond all ordinary bounds.

You should make yourseives the guardians of the future and pre- vent the waste of the great national resources of the country.” He sald irrigation and all other in- terests of the country were interlaced, as frrigation would make the West prosper, and if the West prospered it would cause other sections to prosper as a result.
