THE RESERVOIR DEADLOCK.

IT IS EVIDENT that the negotiations
for a settlement Of the Utah lake
reservoir proposition have come TO a
deadlock, and that unless the citizens
generally. and the canal stockholders
especially bring pressure 10 bear on
their officials the plan will fail alto
gether.
The officials Of the canal companies,
together with the committee of the
Commercial club, had made rapid prog
ress in their negotiations and were ap-
parently in a fair way to reach an
equitable understanding until the final
meeting last week. Then. without any
reason which seems important enough
10 Justify the step, the officers of one
canal company refused to go any fur
Their.
In view OF the immense interest in
volved, both now and in the future. the
people Of Salt Lake and Utah counties
are justified in demanding that this
single obstacle to the reservoir scheme
be removed. There is no disposition
TO sacrifice anybody's interests; indeed,
the very men who have blocked the
great reservoir undertaking know per-
fectly well that every farmer. every
water user, every manufacturer will
profit greatly by a comprehensive irri-
cation system based on a great reser-
voir built by government aid. The con-
ferences of the companies provided for
the protection OF all the interested par
ties. and were planning a development
work whose value TO the counties, the
state and the city is invaluable.
Without the proposed merger of in
terests there can be no hope of gov
eminent aid for the Utah lake project.
Without the Utah lake reservoir there
is no hope of a permanently satisfac-
tory supply Of water for irrigation,
manufactures and domestic use in
these two counties. The city OF Salt
Lake must secure a supply of water
from some source to exchange for the
Big Cottonwood water before there can
be a dependable system of city water
supply either now or hereafter.
II will thus be seen that a permanent
improvement involving millions CT dol
lars of taxable property in country and
city Is jeopardized by the unreasOn-
cials. when all the other interests in
volved are not only willing but eager
10 go into the merger. which is a pre-
requisite to government aid.
The Herald believes the situation is
10 near success and at the same time
10 much imperiled by this one obstacle
hat immediate and vigorous pressure
should be exerted to secure an agree
nent to the merger plan. The Oppor-
:unity presented through the national
irrigation bill is so unusual. so valu-
1ble, that nothing should be left IN
lone to make IL available at once. If
he canal company's officials insist on
blocking the way. their stockholders
should make it plain that they VIII not
stand idly by and see the whole people
sacrificed without a protest.

THE LEGISLATURE.

| THE HERALD presents its compli-
ments to all the members Of the
/ legislature They have assembled TO
work, as best they may, for the good
of the state. OF course they will go
about this business in devious ways;
| they viii not agree with one another
all the time, perhaps not even part Of
the time. but the differences, The Her
! aid trusts, will be honest ones and the
disagreements devoid of bitterness
To the little band of Democrats
which viii leaven the Republican lump.
The Herald is in doubt as to whether
it should tender coincidence or con-
graduation. We believe the state is
90 be congratulated on the presence
of these Democrats among the law
makers. for they may be depended upon
10 act as a balance wheel to the ma
| chine. Hopelessly in the minority. as
they are, they may yet. if they act
wisely, exercise a considerable intlu-
ence on matters of legislation.
With one feature of the legislatures
work they will have nothing to do and
| their minds, therefore, viii be free to
work out the salvation of the state.
They can look at the senatorial con-
test with equanimity, no matter how
it comes out, because the RESPONSE
bility for it rests entirely upon the
shoulders of the gentlemen land LADY,
of the opposition. The Herald hopes
that the minority viii get together on
all questions of Importance. Divided,
it cannot hope to accomplish any
thing. United, it can do a good work.
This legislature will have a number
of problems before it. problems which
must be solved with care and thought.
Some of the laws now on the statute
books need strengthening and revis-
ing; some worthy new laws have been
suggested, and some, probably, should
be repealed. It is not, however, the
mass. but the character, of the legis-
Iation enacted, that goes to make a
legislature satisfactory to the peo-
pie.
Any legislature can make laws, but
not every legislature can make good
laws. Finally, The Herald is glad to
welcome the members from outside to
the Capital City. Some of them have
been here before in the same capacity.
others have had no legislative expert
.ence, but we desire every one of them
TO feel that salt Lake is part and
parcel of Utah, that the biggest and
best city in the state cannot prosper
unless the outer counties prosper also.
without injury to the others.
