Artesian Wells

The long continue droutn throughout
the West has naturally brought the
question of artesian wells again into
prominence. There is no doubt such
wells would do much in overcoming the
evil effects of the hot and dry weather
which has been working such havoc
through the Northwest this season. The
few which are in existence have proven
of incalculable benefit, but they are too
limited t. exert their revivifying infu-
ence beyond very small area. There has
been doubt, too, as to the certainty of
obtaining water by such means in any
except particularly well situated por-
tons of the territory, and the compare
lively heavy expense of boring the
wells has prevented individuals from in
dulging in the luxury oftheir possession.
But in view of the widespread BENEFIT
which such wells would be, their con-
struction would seem to come reasonably
within the province of the territorial,
state, or even national government
Certainly there would be more fairness
and more possibility of good to be ac-
complished in an appropriation for this
purpose than in voting annually hun
dreds of thousand of dollars for the inn
provement ofsome little trout stream in
which the local fisherman and the con-
gressmen alone are interested. Some
years ago the government did send out
commission to sink several experiment
al artesian wells. But through the selec-
ton of manifestly unfavorable locations
for the wells and through an extravagant
not to say incompetent, management,
practically nothing was achieved. Con-
Quoted in the proper manner, such a
commission would accomplish much. 1t

sleeping. A young man named Charles
Speech, of the 'Evangeline" company, rushed
up stairs and aroused as many as he could by
shouting and pounding on the doors He was
very soon driven out of the hotel by the smoke
and flames. His efforts were rewarded by seeing
ten or fifteen persons leaving the house. One
man. cut off from the stairway, forced the sky
light and came out on the roof Another tried
the front fre-escape from the fourth floor, but
was driven to tie roof He was slightly burned
about the head Another man rushed from the
rear ireescape and came down through another
building. It was at first thought that ten to fl
teen persons had been burned to death, but a sub
sequent search by the fremen revealed two dead
bodies. They were both men OF middle age, who
had been sleeping in the hunks. They were both
found on the floor in the middle Of the room on
the fifth floor and one was burned beyond recog-
milton Neither one could be identified. In fight
ing the flames four fremen Were badly hurt. The
origin of the fire is mystery, as all fire in the
ranges was out. 1t is probably attributable to the
Fourth of July celebration.
