Repeal the Law Opposition From All Quarters West
Washington DC October 6. Opposition to repealing land laws grows at the Nations Irrigation Congress and beyond. East pressure to defend public lands steers the debate as western farmers urge preservation to keep government land from private hold. Speaker Maxwell defends Desert Land Law while California and Montana critics warn of land loss. A northern shift calls for broader support to fund irrigation while preserving reclamation potential.
