Anaconda, Oct. 2s.-Anaconda citizens
were treated to variety of weather yes
terday.
In the forenoon dust storms prevailed,
but along towards II o'clock the winds
Quieted and the day became one Of per-

The football game drew the attention
of a good many, while others found the
new smelter works source OF attrac-
ton.
About o'clock in the evening the
clouds which had come over Mount Has-
gins lofty peak concentrated and del
uge of rain fell.
Some of the visitors to the new smclt-
ers, who had missed the last car, did not
get home in time to escape a good wet
ting.
The precipitation allayed the dust and
the near by mountain tops were whitened
with heavy fall of snow.

The great flurne which is to convey
water to the smelters from the source

This gulch has been a favorite place
for Anacondans to visit lately.

of the famous prisoner was the result

seventeen years. He was sentenced to
a fo-ty-years' term in 1888.
Packers alleged crime was the muir
der of party of five prospectors in the
wilds of Colorado. He admitted that
he killed one of the men, who, he said,
was insane and had assaulted him, after
numbering the other four with hatch
ct.
Packer was 100 miles from civiltza-

he said, to eat the flesh of the murdered
men to keep himself from starving

Meanwhile the invasion of Cape Col

BIO IRRIGATION
PROJECT rEvlvEp,
Scheme For Ditch In Colorado and Utah
to Reclaim 100000 Acres of
Land Again Agitated

Representative A. p. Mohr of Grand
county is consulting with the state
board OF land commissioners with al
view to obtaining their support on the
High Line ditch project.
"A number of years ago." he sx-
planned, Colorado appropriated money
for the survey of a line for an irriga4
tion canal from point eighteen miles
above Grand Junction, on the Grand
river, to the Excelsior divide, on the
utah-Colorado line. They were I'd
have the canal built by convict labor
but the labor unions made such a fu-
rore about it that the project seemed
to have fallen through. Lately, how
ever, it has been taken up again and
the ditch will in all probability be
built.
What we want is to have this line
extended across Grand county to Green
river, which would reclaim about 700, !
900 acres of good farming land We
figure on the length of the canal being
N"~ fi~Ss hhu Will introduce u Dill III
the house asking an appropriation Of
$4,000, or as much more as may be
necessary to complete the survey of the
High Line to Green river
81 will confer with the state land
board on the subject, and in laying the
matter before them hope to see them
take it up and have the Utah part Of
the canal built by the state. In case
they do nothing the work will be car
ried on by private capital. Colorad 10
money is watching developments and
will be ready at any time to go in On
the proposition.
"Tbe line will be built west, but will
take a roundabout course. The cost pf
constructing it in Colorado is estimated
at ", 500 mile and it will be about
the same in Utah. The Colorado end
of the canal will be built whether an ".
thing is done in. Utah or not The state
of Colorado has appropriated $40, 900
for the work.
If the canal is extended into Utah
it will open great farming region.
Almost everything can be raised in tha at
climate, and the fruit industry especi-
ally would flourish. Experiments show
that the finest kind of beets can be
raised there"
Mr. Mohr is thoroughly in earnestin
his proposition and does not for a
moment doubt its practicability. Fig
uring on fall of two feet to the
mile for the entire length of the canal,
$50 miles, there would still be a fall
of 400 feet to spare, and it is possib ble
to extend the canal still farther into
Utah.

Better understanding With FlIpinos

Optimism is taking the place of con-
servatism among the military men in
Manila, the cause being the numerous
surrenders, captures and destruction of
insurgent camps, coupled with the in
creasing understanding of the Ameri-
cans intentions among the natives, the
propagation Of the principles Of the
Federal party and the knowledge that
they are approved by the United States
Philippine commission and the military
authorities, and that the carrying out
of the terms of General MacArthur's
proclamation classes all who commit
acts inimical to the interests Of the
army as rebels and traitors, are having
pointed effect.
