AFTER WESTERN WATERS.
Waters of the Grand River to be
Diverted to the Scorchins
Plains East of RANGE.

The people OF the Western Slope may
we'll be looking after water supply
While there is great abundance here
there is a shortage on the Eastern Slope
and efforts are being made to divert the
head waters of the Grand river and
make them flow the other way. While
a little diversion OF this kind would not
be detrimental to the Western Slope
too much must not be permitted and il
might be we'll for those interested to
nip the project in the bud.
The following dispatch from Fort Col
Inns tells OF one project which Is now be-
ing worked 10 that direction:
"Fort Collins, Colo, July 29.-Eugi-
neer William Rist is Just down from the
head Of the Grand river, where he has
been finishing a survey for new supply
ditch for the Water Supply and Storage
company OF this city. The ditch will be
five miles long and will have carrying
capacity OF about $40 cubic feet per
second. One ditch has already been
finished. This has a capacity of $50
cubic feet per second.
"The water from this ditch will be de-
livered into the head waters Of the Cache
la Poudrs. Mr., Rist says that it is
quite possible that objection may be
made by the western slope to this mode
OF appropriatinR water from the Grand
for use on the eastern slope and that
the matter may get into the courts. But
he says that the water supply Of the
Grand is far beyond any possible de-
mand for irrigation in Western Colora
do for the season that the country is so
mountainous and so small percentage
of the land available for irrigation"
