', An amusing story, says Arthur 1.
Vis, director nf tlio United States
acclamation service, can often break
down bnrriers ot opposition against
which the dynamite of fact would bo
Unavailing.
This ho has demonstrated In getting
'eo-operntlon from farmers uho live
nder the reclamation projects of the
."West.
The task of completing these nrojeets
Is not entirely that of an engineer.
Diplomacy ling its plate. Here is the
way It works :
Mr. Davit went into a western com
tnunlty ftomc jenrs ago and found the
residents unfriendly to the coming of
tho government ns the distributor of
irrigation water. He put his arguments
to them n,s well as be might and went
way. A year later he came bark.
When he appeared before the farmers
he saw fit to take notice of their smiles
of welcome, rather thun their frowns of
oisravor. )
inc director remarked on the ten
dency of the hum to brenk through the
clouds. Ho said that his reception re
minded him of an experience he had had
down in Imperial Valley. He was
being driven about by two residents of
that frontier community. On a country
road they met two young women In n
buggy.
''Did you nee that good looking one?"
tho driver asked his companion, "and
did you notice the sweit muilc slie gme
xne?1'
"That's nothing," said the second
man. "The firnt time 1 saw you I
laughed out loud."
As his speech progressed Director
Davis Hpoke cry highly of the re
clamation service. There was u bit of
Btlr of disapproval, which led him
to tell n second story :
A ranchman had died and funeral
services were being held. The minister
preaching the sermon had not known
the deceased, but held to tho theory
that only good things should be spoken
of the dend. At the end of n particu
larly commendatory tribute, a tnll cow
boy got up, walked to the ft out of the
church, circled the eoflin and took a
good look nt the dead man. He then
, returned to his fccnt.
"What's the idcar?" said the cow
boy next "to him.
"NotlitnV was the reply. "I .lust
wanted to make sure that it was fisher
thnt was dead."
After the speech containing these two
stories, the project of the reclamation
acrvlce wns Indorsed by the settlers und
harmony has since prevailed.
Senator Marcus Aurelius Smith, of
Arizona, recently defea-cd by a Uepub
lican and thus kicked upstairs to a
better paying job on the Canadian
