Report on Water Storage.

The Citizens Executive Committee
on Water Storage and Irrigation are
setting about their work in right good
earnest, as will be seen from the fol-
lowing report, submitted at the meet
ing last Thursday, by the engineer ap-
pointed to examine into the feasibility
of water storage dams at Oatman
canyon. The report is worthy of care
full study and will attract attention
far and wide. The magnitude of the
enterprise will beyond doubt exceed
any proposition of the kind that will
be brought before the United States
Senatorial Committee on Irrigation by
other portions of the Territory-in
deed, we believe that the entire coast
cannot bring forward project so bold
in inception, grand in possibility or
SO magnifcently calculated to enhance
the value of immense areas of
splendid land now lying untouched
under the burning rays of semi
tropical sun, simply through the in
availability of adequate water sup
plies. That the lands, extending
north aud south of the river ella and
stretching westward from the site of
the proposed dam, are among the finest
in the country is, as every individual
in the county knows, fact susceptible
of easy demonstration. Resident
farmers and horticulturalists have
proven time and again that every
vegetable, fruit, cereal and grass
known to the temperate zones can be
produced here not only more abund
antly than elsewhere, but also months
before the most favored portions of
Oalifornia-the so-called garden region
of America. Flattering though all this
may seem, we really have not told the
half, for such products as are grown
only in the semi-tropics are also native
to southern Yuma county. Our
splendid citrus fruits excel those
grown in Sonora; bananas have been
successful cultivated, number of
date palms are bending under the
weight of great clusters of rapidly rip
ening fruit and pineapplescan be made
a source of constant revenueasi is shown
by the healthy plants maturing in
the garden of Yuma gentleman.
1t is, perhaps, hardly necessary to
dwell upon the further numerous
agricultural advantages presented
by the county, for the reason that
they are well known and thoroughly
understood by every one who has
inquired into her resources. But it
is very apparent that large water
supplies are imperatively needed,
and, fortunately, the report of the
engineer clears the pathway to-
wards remedying the present de-
fciency. While the many canals
along the ella cover considerable
