After nine months of the
most searching Investigation
the geological survey has decid-
ep upon, and Secretary Hitch
cock has approved, five irriga.
ton projects to be developed
under the terms Of he irrigs-
ton act of 1902 These first
works are to be located at
Sweetwater Dam, Wyoming;
Gunnison Tunnel, Colo; Car.
son and Truckec rivers, New
ada; Milk river and St. Mary's
lake, Montana, and the Salt riv-
er at Tonic Basin, Arizona.
We have personally been over
the ground of the Colorado and
Arizona projects. The Gunni-
son above Delta flows through
II stupendous canyon called the
Black Canyon. Its descent is
rapid. Below at Delta is a
splendid irrigated belt. but a
vast strech of foot hill or mesa
land is too high to irrigate from
the mouth Of the canyon. The
project now is to tunnel
through the walls of the canyon
for about one mile and letting
tie water out of the river upon
an immense area of fertile
bench land in the Uncompagh h.
rec valley. For ten years the
irrigated belt in Uncompaghree
valley around Delta and Mont
rose has been the banner fruit
and alfalfa section of Colorado.
With irrigation facilities for
100000 more acres under the
system it will make this por-
tion OF Colorado world famous.
But the most wonderful and gi-
santic enterprise ofall is the
Tonic Basin reservoir to be con
struc.ed in Arizona. Salt river

in the north central part of the
territory, where the winter

uncertain. At the mouth of
the J onto basin the Salt river
GUS through Il narrow CANYON
with almost perpendicular walls.
Below spreads out the Salt rly-
er valley, which farther down
merges into to Gila valley ex-
tending all the way to Yuma
on the Colorado river. This
strech Of country, over two
hundred and fifty miles longand
from ten to sixty miles wide
comprise several million acres
of magnificent land. A dam
200 feet high will be built
across the mouth of the Tonic
canyon to impound The fiood
waters which will spread over
the basin forming a lake six.
teen miles long and from one to
five miles wide. When com.
pleted it will surpass in msgni-
tade the famous Assouam dam
across the Nile recently com
pleted by the British govern
meut. The Salt river and ella

 It used underground II, 900, 900 feet of lumber in 1901. Its production of copper for that year was 10000 tons.
 It employs 1,SOO men. It's new shelter now being built at Douglas, which is 294 feet wide, with capacity of treat ing l,sOO tons of ore every twenty-four hours, is almost completed.
 A landslide of considerable extent occurred on the side of Turtle moun- tain at Frank, N. w. T., April 29th, said to have been caused by an ex- plosion of fire damp in the Frank col fiery. The slide buried a portion of the town, killing fifty-six people, and causing considerable other damage. The Old Mans river, which flowed through the center of the town, was damned up with fallen rock to height of 80 feet. Of seventeen miners at work underground, two died of suffocation and the other fifteen worked their way out, cutting through 30 feet of debris at one of the tunnels, the main entrance to the mine being completely blocked by the slide.

 The lands of Fort Mcdowell will be thrown open to public settlement in a short while. About 25,OOO acres are embraced in the holdings and half of this amount will be set aside for the Apache Indians. The land is located on the Verde river and most of it is under irrigation. It is thirty-five miles north of Mesa in an easterly di- rection from Phoenix.
 It is reported that the increase in values and the incipient boom along the line of the Phoenix & Eastern railroad is growing and assuming great proportions. Particularly is this the case from Kelvin to Mammoth, which will be the depot for the Old Hat and Table Mountain districts, and Reddington from the Reed and Apache districts.
