Mirage Flats has a history written in human toil, sweat and blood. The Sioux, the Pawnee, and the Cheyenne were in possession of the area until 1877. In 1874 the Govern ment established the Spotted Tail Agency (named after the Brule Sioux Chief) approximately midway between the pres ent towns of Chadron and Hay Springs. In 1877 the gold rush to the Black Hills began and the Government placed the Indians on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. At this time Fort Sheridan was established just south of and replacing the Spotted Tail Agency, and was maintained until 1881.

The committee was instructed to investigate the economic and agricultural phases of the Owyhee project and report to the Bureau of Reclamation its conclusions and recommendations. A committee was selected consisting of Mr. A. T. Strahorn, soil surveyor, Bureau of Soils, Washington, D. C.; Prof. M. R. Lewis, agricultural engineer, University of Idaho, Moscow, Idaho; Prof. G. R. McDole, soil technologist, University of Idaho, Moscow, Idaho; and Prof. W. L. Powers, soil technologist, Oregon Agriculture College, Corvallis, Oreg. The committee was assisted in assembling these data, and by conference, by Messrs. J. B. Bond, superintendent, Boise project, Idaho; W. H. Blackmer, assistant engineer, Bureau of Reclamation; E. O. Larson, assistant engineer, Bureau of Reclamation; G. H. Hogue, assistant engineer, Bureau of Reclamation; F. O. Youngs, scientist in soil survey, Bureau of Soils, Washington, D. C.; Dr. R. E. Stephenson, division of soil technology, Oregon Agriculture College; H. L. Holgate, chief field counsel, Bureau of Reclamation; and J. C. Marr, senior drainage engineer, Bureau of Public Roads. A committee of local citizens residing within the boundaries of the Owyhee project, consisting of Mr. Ivan E. Oakes, chairman, engineer, Ontario; Mr. H. B. Cockrum, banker, Ontario, and Mr. Dick Tensen, farmer, Nyssa, Oreg., were appointed to review this report and submit its findings to the Bureau of Reclamation. Mr. Youngs and party began the soil survey of the Gem District on July 28, and Professor Powers and Doctor Stephenson began the soil survey of the Dead Ox Division at the same time. Mr. A. T. Strahorn took charge of the soil survey work on July 30, 1924. Prof. M. R. Lewis carried out the investigations of the economic conditions of the various pump districts, and Professor McDole, Mr. Blackmer, and G. C. Kreutzer collected data on the agricultural and economic phases of the district. Messrs. E. O. Larson and G. H. Hogue carried out the field work on drainage investigations, and were assisted in conference by Mr. J. C. Marr. Mr. H. L. Holgate, chief field counsel of the Bureau of Reclamation, conferred with the directors of the irrigation district and with other groups of citizens not yet organized into districts, and spent some time conferring with the committee on the legal phases of the project. During the time that field work was in progress, the local citizens of the communities assisted in every way possible Messrs. E. C. Van Patton, Pat Gallagher, W. H. Doolittle, County Agent L. R. Briethaupt, all of Ontario, and Mr. J. H. Lowell of Caldwell, Idaho, gave liberally of their time to further investigations. In some instances they furnished cars to carry investigators to various parts of the project. The scope of the work consisted in making the soil survey and land classification, economic analysis of the pump districts, the study of drainage conditions, collection of data on yields and prices of the principal crops now grown in the section, as well as making balance sheets, inventories, and gathering such other data as was found necessary to determine the feasibility of the project from the economic viewpoint. The committee was instructed to make such field investigations, and to collect such data, in order that it could finally summarize its findings, having in mind the provisions of the bill H. R. 9559, already passed by the House of Representatives and now pending in the Senate. Conclusions 1. The land classification data show an area of 58,859 acres of first-class land that is well adapted to produce satisfactory yields of all crops that may be successfully grown in the region under consideration. There are 56,140 acres of second-class land that can not be expected to produce as high an average yi.

Patterson, chairman of the Georgia Reclamation Committee, stated that we must educate the public and the legislatures to the new conception of reclamation; that this proposed work does not mean the bringing into production of large areas of agricultural land, but of making contented, prosperous, organized rural communities. Dr. Burdette G. Lewis, chairman of the Florida Reclamation Committee, dis cussed the resolution, which was then adopted unanimously by the conference. Hon. Walter F. Lineberger, former Member of Congress, and consulting engineer, stated that he believed that it is fundamentally sound to extend the work of the Bureau of Reclamation to include the South; that he is heartily in favor of the great program outlined, adding that this is more than a proposition for te claiming land; it is a great social and eco nomic movement of the most vital benefit to our whole country.

Download or read book The Last Utopia written by Samuel Moyn and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-05 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human rights offer a vision of international justice that today’s idealistic millions hold dear. Yet the very concept on which the movement is based became familiar only a few decades ago when it profoundly reshaped our hopes for an improved humanity. In this pioneering book, Samuel Moyn elevates that extraordinary transformation to center stage and asks what it reveals about the ideal’s troubled present and uncertain future. For some, human rights stretch back to the dawn of Western civilization, the age of the American and French Revolutions, or the post–World War II moment when the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was framed. Revisiting these episodes in a dramatic tour of humanity’s moral history, The Last Utopia shows that it was in the decade after 1968 that human rights began to make sense to broad communities of people as the proper cause of justice. Across eastern and western Europe, as well as throughout the United States and Latin America, human rights crystallized in a few short years as social activism and political rhetoric moved it from the hallways of the United Nations to the global forefront. It was on the ruins of earlier political utopias, Moyn argues, that human rights achieved contemporary prominence. The morality of individual rights substituted for the soiled political dreams of revolutionary communism and nationalism as international law became an alternative to popular struggle and bloody violence. But as the ideal of human rights enters into rival political agendas, it requires more vigilance and scrutiny than when it became the watchword of our hopes.

Book Synopsis Decolonizing Methodologies by : Linda Tuhiwai Smith
Download or read book Decolonizing Methodologies written by Linda Tuhiwai Smith and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-03-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A landmark in the process of decolonizing imperial Western knowledge.' Walter Mignolo, Duke University To the colonized, the term 'research' is conflated with European colonialism; the ways in which academic research has been implicated in the throes of imperialism remains a painful memory. This essential volume explores intersections of imperialism and research - specifically, the ways in which imperialism is embedded in disciplines of knowledge and tradition as 'regimes of truth.' Concepts such as 'discovery' and 'claiming' are discussed and an argument presented that the decolonization of research methods will help to reclaim control over indigenous ways of knowing and being. Now in its eagerly awaited second edition, this bestselling book has been substantially revised, with new case-studies and examples and important additions on new indigenous literature, the role of research in indigenous struggles for social justice, which brings this essential volume urgently up-to-date.
