In that section. the Craig Courier Of last
issue. to our mind. effectively disprOves
the charge.
The Courier shows that the lands were
settled on In good faith and that the
settlers are complying with the law in
the matter Of payments. Also. that Al,
heroic effort Is being made to complete
= large ditch to water the lands and
make them productive.
The editor Of this paper knows some-

knows that all the purchasers are max
ing an honest effort both to comply with
the law and make homes for themselves
on lands that are practically valueless
without water.
They are all comparatively poor
people, and have te work wherever they
can to get means to live on and to build
the.ditch now under construction.
Pending the compilation Of the ditch,
it would be just as practicable to raise
hay or grain on the asphalt pavement

on these lands. We hope the land board
will be enlightened In this matter.
