WILL DAM THE WHITE RIVER
SCHEME INVOLVES THE BUILD

It Is Estimated That $4,000 Acres

Special Correspondencel

Nernal, Feb. Skaters are beginning
to assume definite shape in regard to the
proposed scheme to construct a dam ana
canal on White river to reclaim a large
tract of land in that section AT a meet

This tract of country is twentv-seven

Is upon the old UncOmpahgre Indian res
GrVatOn, which was thrown open to pub
nc entry a rev years ago. The land WAS
oectonlzed by the government before its
feiedSe, ana lies in townships Z. andg
south of ranges -. y and - east of the
SAT- Lake meridian. The altitude of the
W mite river valley is cOnsidera bIv lower
tban the Ashley valley which is $50 feet
and 1t IS believed will be much better
adapted to fruit growing The land is
regarded as first class. Along the river
bank on the lOwlands are several thous-
and acres that have been allotted to the
Indians FOR which water can be procured
only by means of the proposed dam and
canal and an effort will be made to en-
list the government in the enterprise
The supply OF water is ample in White
river to Irrigate all lands along its course
at all times. Material for the dam is
right on the ground so that there is no
necessity for delay. The new settlement
should be prosperous from the start, as
II will be located right in the heart of
the big gilsOnite deposits that are certain
10 bring some big developments. The
big Cowboy lode Is but few miles dis
tant, and all around are numerous hy-
dro-carbOn locations numbering hundreds
of claims. The nearest railway point is
CTevaSse. Colo. on the ID. 4 R. G., which
is ninety miles distant to the southeast.
On the south side of White river is an
other fine tract of land that can be re-
claimed by the use of the proposed dam.
which viii. however, necessitate the eX-
penditure of more means for the con-
structiOn. OF a canal than the north side
I'm all probability this canal will also be
constructed, when the success of the dam
is once demonstrated. There is already
Sl5.C00 of the stock taken.

word that Mr. Young uttered. Beginning
with Lincoln's early life he portrayed his
early struggles, his youthful hardships,
and the training that afterward gave him
the name of Honest Abe. Mr.. Young
laid special stress on his religious ad-
herence to principles which he believed to
be true and right, and upon the touching
scene of his assassination one of the
most attractive parts of Mr.. Young :
