(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, July 6. (Special.) Governor
Aldrtch, accompanied by his private
secretary, Mr. Fuller, and State Engineer
Price of the Irrigation department, will
leave Lincoln Sunday night for, North
Platte on a campaign of education
throughout the northwest portion of the
state in the interests of Irrigation.
Governor Aldrich Is anxious that the
settlers In the northwest portion of the
state should not lose their right to the
water which belongs to them through
neglect to exercise their rights. When
Secretary of the Interior Fisher was in
Lincoln some time ago Governor Aldrich
took up the matter of irrigation In Ne
braska with him and says that Mr. Fisher
assured him that the Nebraska settlers
on the lands under the big ditch would
be accorded every right which was their
own to the use of the water, but that
they must look to it that they "did not by
their own negligence let their right lapse
through nonuse of the water.
Wyoming interests are after the water,
but as long as the Nebraska people ex
ercise their rights the Wyoming people
cannol use the water, only after Ne
braska farmers have used what they
need. The thing which bothers the gov
ernor now Is that not knowink just
what is necessary to be done, In order
to keep their right to the water, that
the Nebraska useres of the water will
lose out through not knowing what to
do. It is for the purpose of putting up a
campaign of education that a special
train will be sent out through the irri
gation country next week to acquaint
the people there of the need of exercls
lng diligence in keeping within the re-
qulremnts necessary to hold the irriga
tion privilege for Nebraska farmers.
Following are resolutions passed by the
North Platte chamber of commerce,
which give an Idea of the Importance
of the present movement and which re-
suited In the special train being sent
out by the Union Pacific railroad:
Whereas, It is the announced policy of
me unitea states t'.ivei niacin. lu ioi.ui
in the uDDer river states all water not
now used and applied on the lands in the
North Platte river valley, and to that
end and purpose have caused a survey to
be made showing the lanas to wmca
water has been applied; ana,
Whereas. The state of Nebraska,
through its state board of irrigation
has announced that applications for
water made In the state and which water
has not been appliea w lanas wm lme
wise be cancelled by the state, and, '
Whereas, In the North Platte river
valley ditches have been constructed
from which little or no water has been
applied to land and the applications for
water belonein? to said ditches will be
cancelled and the priorities lost If same
are not put in shape ana water usea;
and.
Whereas. There Is much other lana in
the valley susceptible of irigation from
the North Platte river lor wmcn no
application to appropriate water nas
been made, and unless an appropriation
of water for such land Is speedily made,
the right to irrigate such land from said
river will be lost and the valley of the
North Platte in the state be as oevow
of water for Irrigation as the valley of
the South Platte and much wealth lost
to the valley and the state at targe,
and to the cities and towns In said val-
lev: therefore be it.
Resolved, By the North Platte Chamber
of Commerce, that we can upon nis ex
cellencv. Hon. Chester H. Aldrich, gov
ernor of the state of Nebraska, who has
always been alive to the interest of the
state, to ao wnatever is in nis power xa
arouse the people of the North Platte
valley to the danger that threatens them
and that he be respectfully invited to
make a number of addresses to the people
of the North Platte vauey on wis im
portant subject, and that the Hon. D. D.
Price, state engineer, ana otner oincers
h a so invited to accompany me gov
ernor and to give the people the facts
in relation to the danger that threatens
the people of the vauey; ana
Whereas, the Union Pacific railroad is
likewise greatly Interested in the pros
nerttv nf the vallev and the development
of irrigation therein, therefore be It fur-
ler
Resolved. That the said Union Pacific
Railroad company be requested to fur
nish a snecial train to convey the gov
ernor and other state officials who may
accompany him up Its road In the North
Platte river valley; and that said rail
road nnmnanv be reauested to give what
ever assistance It can to arouse the peo
ple of said valley to the danger that
threatens the water supply of the valley.

Such success in road-ma-ing was at

FRANK HARRISON BRINGS
RISE FROM THIRD PARTY MEN
(From a Staff Correspondent.)'
LINCOLN, July 6.-(Special.)-Again
Frank A. Harrison Is to the front with
a imposition to save the country. Mr.
Harrison returned fom the east yester
day where he had been conferring with
political leaders and proposes that all re
publicans should Join In an "on to Wash
ington" movement which will bring har
mony, peace and victory. He proposes
that all republicans should make a con
certed demand that both President Taft
and Candidate Roosevelt step aside. Mr,
Harrison suggests no candidate to take
the place of either President Taft or Mr.
Roosevelt, but can be counted upon to
be willing to solve the question of who
the man should be If left to him to do so.
This announcement made In Mr. Har
rison's paper yesterday caused a meet
ing to be held last night in which E. G.
Maggi, F. P. Corrlck, Paul F. Clark,
George A. Adams, J. C. Harpham and
Don L. Love were the most consplclous
characters. The meeting seemed to be
divided on Mr. Harrison's proposition.
some of those present declaring that It
could not be pulled off, while others
were persistent that the -third party
movement. -was the only solution of the
republican problem.
One Interesting feature of Mr. Har
rison's manifesto is that he asks "all
self seeking or disturbing factions to
step aside."
