II the People of the Valley
 Want Reservoir.
MUST BE ACREAGE
It May Be That lSO, ,OOC Acres Will Be Required - All That Saved the Valley Was the Enthusiasm of the Meeting Last Saturday.

Washington. D. C., June 13 (SpeciaD. There must be at least 10000 acres of land subscribed to the articles of the Salt River Valley Water Users asso- citation in order to secure the construc- ton of the Tonto Basin reservoir. An estimate is now being made in the in terior department of the actual amount of land that will be required, and it. will be made public very soon. It is possi- ble that 1SOOO0 acres will be demanded.
 The news received here today from Phoenix that 126,000 acres had been subscribed caused much satisfaction in the interior department. particularly in the geological survey. The develop ments of last week have convinced the officers charged with carrying out the provisions of the national irrigation act that a majority of the residents of the valley are heartily in favor of the gov ernment plan to construct the reser voir.
 The fact should not be overlooked that the willingness of these officers to accept this view is not based on a feeling of friendship alone. If it were not that the Tonto Basin site presents ideal conditions for a reservoir the fiouting of the governments offer by a portion of the valleys population un- occasionally would have been sufficient provocation to turn the governments attention in another direction. For tunately the government gave much consideration to the Tonto site when it was believed that people would well come government aid. and the prelim mary work is practically completed.
 Operations in connection with the sites in other portions of the arid west are in a more backward state. How ever, but for the enthusiasm displayed at the mass meeting in Phoenix last week and the assurances conveyed in recent dispatches to the secretary of the interior and to the director of the geological survey that the required acreage will be subscribed, the outlook for the building of the reservoir would not be nearly as bright as it is at this writing.
 As it is there is much to be done to make success certain. If the readers of The Republican were advised of the efforts of residents of other arid belts to induce the interior department to build the original reservoir in some other locality, they would better ap- preciate the gravity of the situation. Every person with a stake in the Salt River valley ought to hustle for sub scribers the coming week. If the Tonto reservoir is constructed it will be ac- cOrding to the governments present plans. If it is to be constructed there must be no cessation of the present strenuous work on the part of the Water Users association.
 It is believed here in view of last weeks showing that by next Saturday night the total subscriptions will be close to 15.OOO acres. If these figures are reached the people of Phoenix will be justified in taking a night off
