Judge Gregory said "Whsn once thorough.
ly developed our water supply will not on
ly furnish al absolutely ready aud ample
amount of water for irrigation, but will be
the source of vast deal Of water power for
manufacturing purposes The amount of
land which I expect to see fully supplied
with water from the undei how which Is the
chief souroe of supply referred to
will be not less than 100000 acres and
possibly double that area 10 southwest
Kansas The same system will also reclaim
millions Of acres In Colorado, northwest
Texas, north Mexico. western Nebraska, the
Dakotas, Montana, and elsewhere that would
otherwise be forever without an adequate
or reliable supply OF water for purposes of
irrigation. What mean by the under ,w
is the vast sh eet of water which underles
the Arkansas valley and the same is found
under the Platte and other streams, which
