Shall South
Dakota Irrigate?

At the next meeting of the Nation
al Irrigation Congress which will be
held in Ogden, Utah, on September
18th to 18th, 1903, inclusive, there
will be some questions to be settled
that are of more interest to this
state, and especially to the western
half Of this state, than is generally
known. There is in the United
States treasury over ten million
dollars. which has been appropriated
and set aside for the sole purpose of
retaining arid lands of the west.
This great sum of money. as we'll as
the future receipts from the sale of
public lands in the future in the
arid states-sixteen in mum ber-can
be used for no other purpose than
storage of water by the building of
reservoirs, dams, the development Of
water supplies by means of artesian
wells and drain tunnels and other
direct means of reclaiming the
lands of the arid west.
The states defined as arid in the
Irrigation law are as follows: Ari-
IONA, California, Oregon, Washing
ton, Nevada. Idaho, Montana, Wyo-
ming, Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Okla
homa and Utah.
The National Irrigation Congress
was instrumental in causing Cong
ress to pass this law to set aside
this great sum of money to be used
in the manner described. and they
will, aJ this meeting, recommend
to the Secretary of the Interior the
manner of expanding these millions
in the best way for the public good
President Roosevelt is right in
line on this proposition and the
arid sta tes are surecs Of. his hearty
support. There is no question but
that this problem will soon become
one of the most gigantic of all ma

each society of engineers 2 delegates
each irrigation company, emigra-
ton society or agricultural college,
and each college or university having
chairs of hydraulic engineering or
forestry 2 delegates.
The following are delegates by
virtue of their respective Offices:
The president and members of his
cabinet; the duly accredited repre-
sentative of any foreign nation or
colony; the governor of any state or
territory; any member Of the United
States Senate or House of Represen-
tatives; member of any state or ter

Everybody interested in this
great work should see to it that
delegates are appointed and that the
delegates appointed are men inter
ested in the upbuilding Of the state
and men that will be there when
the convention calls tc order on
September 18th next. This state
is entitled to her portion of this APP
preparation and it rests with our
people whether they will make a
stand and ask for what is coming to
them or not. BY all means let us
not let it 60 by default.

The LuCin Cutoff.

That Ogden Lucin cutoff which the
Southern Pacific is trying to make
possible seems to be hoodood, the
engineers being confronted with a
problem that is taxing their utmost
capacity and so far has gotten the
best of them. The place of their
present trouble is in space about 200
feet wide, and although the lakes sur
face seems perfectly clear and smooth
at this point, there Isl current under
meath that is very strong. The cur
rent, while great hinderance to
rapid work, Is not the greatest diff.
Guilty, however, for bog seems to be
located at the bottom. Into this
place thousands Of tons of stone, grav-
ell and mud have been dumped and
without any effect whatever. The
material is thrown up i'm the lake
some two or three hundred yards
further on. An attempt to drive
piling meets with the same failure:
just tap or two of the pile driver
knocks the tree out of sight and it is
only by placing one pile upon another
that solid bottom is reached at IA dis
tance of 100 feet. Divers from the
Pacific coast are working under water
TO put rock In place, and five steam
shoveis are at work loading trains
with gravel for this terrific hole: also
eight fiat boats, propelled by gasoline
engines, furnishing heavy rock.
Upon several occasions, when a
piece of the road was thought COM
p!etcd, trains upon IL would commence
sinking, Keeling from side to side and
finally topplc over in the lake. Quite
a number of men have lost their lives
In this manner. Wrecking trains are
always on hand to grapple the cars
and engines before they drop out of
sight.
1t Is thought that suspension
bridge could be constructed over this
place, but the company seems deter
mined to carry out the original plan
and construct solid grade of earth
work entirely across the lake. There
Is disposition TO keep the progress OF
the work, the disasters, etc, from the
public, but men who quit working
there frequently give out the details.

other claims passed upon without surrendering the
amount received. This provision modified

cefved unless the previous payment was fraudulent
This change is in conformity with decision of the
Supreme Court.
Another amendment provides four objections

going through bankruptcy-. the most important OF
which are the giving OF false mercantile state
