Here is an inspiration from thirsty
Kansas: The state Of Kansas VS..
The Kansas Utopia association is a
case of great Importance to thousands
of people. It was started in Brown
county and will be tested in the higher
courts. The plan is novel. To be-
come a member a person must deposit
y with the man in charge. The
money is to be expended for liquor in
Missouri, which liquor is to be shipped
to Kansas. As soon as the supply of
liquor arrives, the member is privil-
eyed to go into the rooms of the asso-
citation and drink. He can call for a
glass of beer and then give five cents
to the proprietor to replenish his
stock. If he takes a pint of whisky he
puts up So cents. This keeps his So
worth Of liquor intact. If he drinks
up 50 worth Of liquor without giving
anything to replace it he ceases to be
a member. The proprietor makes his
living by the commission on the sales
he makes. Only members are en-
titled to the privilege of the associa.
ton.

The activity of the land market con-
tinues through the Missouri slope.
Two large transactions in land were
reported in the Tribune of yesterday,
which tend to show that Burleigh
county land is in demand. The sale
OF the Watson ranch comprising sew
eral thousand acres of good grazing
land, and of the Stark farm, which
contains some excellent farming land,
shows that both grazing and farming
land is in demand.

SOME IRRIGATION c

The report Of the committee on pub
lie lands of which Senator Hansbrough
is chairman, has been issued in the
form of a pamphlet, containing some
interesting data regarding irrigation.
The general public is familiar with
the nature OF the bill that was fled
and it is accompanied with a report
OF the U. S. geological survey, which
gives further important facts bearing
on the subject. Some Of the facts
stated therein are as follows:
IF all of the land and all of the in
terests which would receive benefit
from the construction Of works Of re-
clamation could be granted to one in
diYidual or corporation, so that the in
Vestors could receive all of the bene-
fits from the outlay, the projects would
be highly remunerative; but under
present conditions, which render it
necessary for the benefits to go to a
large number Of individuals and COM
munities. situated sometimes in diff
ferent states, it has been shown by
trial and failure that private enter
prise cannot make money out of works
for regulating the flow of the rivers
and for saving the floods. Not one
Of these has been financially success
full, except where conditions are such
that a corporation controls the land
and has such wide ramifying interests
as to gather returns from many
sources.
Government works should be built
for the reclamation of arid lands so
situated that private enterprise has
been found to be impracticable.
There are two contrasting condi-
tions to be recognized in the arid re-
gion and all proposed projects can be
classed under one or the other. The
first is where the greater part of the
land to be benefited belongs to the
government and the second is where
all or nearly all of the lands needing
water have passed into the control of
individuals.
In the first case the government re-
claims its own lands and may dispose
of these to actual settlers in small
tracts, giving title finally whenever
the cost of the water has been re-
funded TO the government.
I'm the second case, where all of the
lands have passed into private owner
ship and are situated along a river of
such length that the benefits can not
be directly ascertained, the govern
ment works, if built, must be without
reference to obtaining direct returns.
They are comparable to river and har-
Dor improvements, in that they serve
the general welfare. Such works must
be built and operated without refer
ence to any immediate or direct re-
turns to the government.
Maps of important rivers have been
prepared, showing their catchment
areas in the mountains and the rela-.
tive position OF reservoir sites, canals,
and irrigated and irrigable lands.
These maps have been issued as sub
sidiary to a topographic atlas Of the
Tinted States. Rivers have been
Systematically measured at various
points throughout the arid region, and
the results of computations OF flow

Judge Pollock has decided the test
case involving the right of counties
to list and assess personal property
coming into the state after April ].
The case was of interest to machine
men, as it involved the liability Of
machinery brought into the state
after April 1 for taxation. Judge
Pollock decided for the county, and
the a $ will be appealed to the il
preme court.

have been published. In the aggre-
gate, several million dollars have been
expended upon private projects whose
feasibility has been known through
out these measurements; such, for ex-
ample, as the sugar-beet factories To-
Gated on Arkansas river in Colorado.
and elsewhere.
THE underground water conditions
have been studied, and maps prepared
for portions Of the west, resulting In
large developments of deep waters.
It is safe to say that. as in the case of
river measurements, the wealth of the
country has been increased by several
hundred thousand dollars as an imme-
diate consequence of these artesian in
vestigations. The deep wells of the
Santa Fe system at La Junta, Colo,
furnish an example.
Many reservoir sites have been ex-
amined; some of these have been sur
veyed with great care, and detailed
estimates of the cost and value pre-
pared. Some of the smaller have al
ready been utilized by private capital;
for example, those on the headwaters
of the Arkansas river in Colorado, and
in the Sierra Nevada in California; but
the larger remain for future utiliza-
ton, as they can not be made a source
of speculative profit, although invalu-
able in the development of the coun-
try. -sn - 10y
There r now at hand data bear
ing upon the water supply and the cost
of storage in various localities, and
facts to justify the construc-
ton of some Of the most important
works, such as the San Carlos reser-
voir in Arizona. a portion of the sys-
tenn Of the California-Nevada state
line, and the diversion of the St. Mary
to Milk river in Montana" j..

LEASING ENJOINED.

Secretary Hitchcock and Commits
sioner of Indian Affairs Jones. have
been served with papers directing
them to appear in the supreme tu.l.t
OF the District of Columbia February
13, to show cause why they should not
be enjoined from approving the lease
to William I. Walker of 100000 acres
of pasture land On the Standing Rock
Indian reservation in South Dakota.
The matter was brought before thu,
court by attorneys for the Sioux In
dians. The objection of the Indians
Ito this lease is that it takes in the
locations Of sixty or seventy Indian
families on the Grand river, contrary
to the understanding that the Indians
themselves should select the unoccu-
pied lands for such pasture purposes.
