STEALING A RIVER.
Irrigation Enterprise Threatens to
Take Smoky Hill WATERS

Take Smoky Hill Waters.
ABILENE, Kan, May 19.-The promo
tiers of the Cheyenne lake enterprise are
projecting an addition to the ditch plans
that is frightening the people Of this sec
ton of the state. NJ
They have already run a ditch from the
Cheyenne bottoms, a depression fourteen
miles long and six wide, to the Arkansas
river. Then on the north they propose to
run ditch to the Smoky HILL near Hol-
sington, which will take the waters into
Blood creek, emptying into the bottoms
If this is done 1t will take all the water
from the Smoky Hill at that point. and
the mills. electric light systems and other
enterprises dependent on it in Central
Kansas will be without power.
The lake is intended to be both a huge
reservoir and a pleasure resort with
drives and boat lines to attract the peo-
pie Of the West as It will be the largest
artificial lake in the prairie region. The
bitches that run to it from the two rfv-
ers are expected to be also feeders for
the irrigation plants of Barton county
and to make all that section certain Of
large crops.
The people of this section will fight the
proposed invasion of the Smoky Hill wa
tiers and will apply to the courts for in
functions against the men who are about
to tap the river.

to future generatons-an this bliss is in
store for Daytons Bluff IL one could
judge from the enthusiasm displayed by
the women who assembled in Atlantic

noon for the purpose of discussing ways
and means of beautifying the Bluff.

formation and work of the league Much
good had already been accomplished, she

also subchairmen appointed for each
buock. These chairmen reported the
condition of their blocks to the chairman
OF the street and various ways and means
were discussed at the meetings of the
executive council to meet the different
problems as they were presented. That
some of. these problems were rather
knotty the speaker admitted. Bill post
Ing was one Of them. A law exists, she
said, which requires $1,000 bonds before

ment of the law is exceedingly lax.

pared by the. corporation attorney

line.
After her address numerous questions
were put to Mrs. Hamlin by the women
present and in the informal discussion
which followed they showed an intelli-
gent interest in the work that argues
well for the future appearance Of Day
tons Bluff.
