UNNECESSARILY ALARMED.

The governor of Idaho and some of the
residents of our northern neighbor are, it
seems to US, making themselves unneces-
sarily uneasy regarding the projects of the
BoTHwELL company, which proposes to
utilize portion of the water Of Bear river
for irrigation purposes in Utah. The COM
pany, it is understood, has taken certain
steps looking to the utilization of Bear
lake in Idaho for a storage reservoir, the
main canal to be fed from the stream lying
entirely in Utah. THE HERALD is not
familiar with the details of Mr. BoTHwELL's
plans. but for the life of us we cannot see
how any of the gentleman's schemes can
in the slightest degree iniure any
citizen of Idaho. He can deprive
no man in the territory of any
right to the waters of Bear river, nor can
he injure Bear lake, which is the drain
basin for Bear Lake valley, and therefore
living below the irrigable land in that val
lev. So far as cutting off the water sup
ply of anybody in Idaho is concerned, the
proposition is ridiculous. The Bear River
valley from the lake to the point where the
river enters Utah, is narrow, and its irri-

sides, there is much of the land which irri-
cation would not reclaim. All the water
required for all the land in Idaho which can
be watered from Bear river would not
materially lessen the stream in ordinary
years, hence it seems to US that our
northern friends are protesting without
occasion. If any have solid right to find
fault, they are those who own land below
the head of Mr.. BoTHwELL's canal, and
these all happen to be in Utah, and most OF
them are expecting so much benefit from
the big enterprise that they are delighted
with the scheme.
In an average season, Mr.. boutwell,
will have no occasion for a storage reser-
voir. The river will flow so much more
water than his canals can carry or that he
can find use for, that reservoir will be
entirely unnecessary, and the Idaho gran
gers can take all they can possibly manage,

TEST 1T.

Every time the matter is mentioned
somebody hobs up with the declaration
that flowing wells cannot be obtained in
the eastern part of the city. Ask him how
he knows. and he will generally answer
because they can't" which is no reason
whatever AS matter of fact, there has
never been thorough test. 1t may satisfy
some to say that the conformation of the
country is such that no hope of tapping
subterranean streams need be entertained
but it seems to US that this assertion ought
not to satisfy the corporation in its present
distress. We all know that it is no trick at
all to drive wells and obtain water
anywhere in the southwestern, western
and northwestern quarters of the
city. If this water comes from
the river, the theory as to conforma-
ton Is correct, but if the water comes
from the mountains, as some believe, it
must flow under the city from the east, and
wells bored or driven in the eastern
quarter, to tap the streams, would simply
have to be sent down deeper than those
along the bottom lands. Depth, within
reasonable limits, should not be taken into
account under the circumstances. a flow
ing well anywhere east of East Temple and
north of Fourth South would be invaluable
If one can be had the expense should not
stand in the way, for if water in that dis
trict can be had by boring, large part
of the troublesome problem can be
readily solved. 1t is of little concern to
the city that along the banks Of the
Jordan, anywhere within the city limits,
sub-surface streams can be readily and in
extensively tapped and vigorous flows
brought to the surface. To be available,
the water must be pumped two or three
miles, there being no other way for getting
it onto the land. There is now, dry as the
season has been, twice as much water flow
ing in the Jordan past the city as would be
required to give everybody all he needed
for irrigation. 1t would be as easy to
pump this as that which might be had
through flowing wells.
We think it should be worth the while of
the corporation to make thorough test of
the problem, and ascertain beyond the pos
sibility of doubt if driven or bored wells
can be had anywhere in the eastern part of
the Tenth and Eleventh wards. One such
well there would be worth dozen in the
western quarter, where three seasons out
Of four little water is needed, and frequently
the land would be benefited by a system
of drainage. It will cost something to
make the test, but the possibility of success
will furnish abundant justification for the
expenditure, and flowing well would war;
rant the outlay of any sum that the un-
dertaking could reasonably involve.

SENATOR WADE HAMPTON, who has just
returned from Canada, says the question Of
annexing Canada to the United States is
being seriously considered by the Dominion
authorities. The buster which those au
thorities have been making over the cap

American officials, would lead one to sup
pose that the Canadians were seriously
considering the question of annexing the
limited States to Canada.
