CALIFORNIA SANDS
The Irrigation Act TO Make
Them Blossom
Three New Projects in Contempla-
tion for the Reclamation Of a Million
Acres Of Land.

Washington, Nov. S.-Three great
new projects in California which the
government is considering under the
national irrigation act, will, if under
taken, add in the neighborhOod of a
million acres of wonderfully fertile land
to the reclaimed area of the Golden
state Government engineers have
been engaged upon preliminary sur
veys for upwards of a year. and in
southern California a few weeks ago
200, 600 miners inches of water of the
Colorado river were filed upon and ap-
propriated by the government, which
means in reality the entire flow of this
Nile of America. The entire surround
ing land-over four million acres have
also been, reserved. The ultimate rec
lamation of land through the great
system of dams and canals eventually
to be constructed on this river alone
will be something over u million acres.
but the first step in this work Will
probably reclaim about 100000 acres of
rich delta land.
The second project which has been
Investigated is the Storage Of the wa
tiers of the Kings river. about midway
between Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco, formed by two large mountain
streams heading far up in the sncw-
capped Sierras. The regular flow of
the Kings river irrigates today an
enormous acreage in the fertile San
Joaquin valley, while the storage of
its waters by the government would
increase its irrigable capacity by at
least 100000 acress At present its flood
waters flow wholly to waste. as does
likewise almost the entire flow of the
Colorado river flowing through the
extreme southern part of the state and
emptying into the Gulf of California.
Still another enterprise which has
commended itself to the government
engineers is what is known as the
Clear lake project in the northern part
of the state. Situated 1000 feet above
sea level. Clear lake is a beautiful
sheet of water covering 10000 acres.
By stretching a low dam across its
lower end and raising its surface only
six feet, 240, ,000-acre feet of water
could be stored. sufficient to irrigate
over 20c, 900 acres of the highly produc-
tive land of the Sacramento valley.
Here, where there is considerable rain
fall, much less water would be nee
essary for irrigation than in the south
ern part of the state, where both arid
ity and an almost tropical climate ne
cessitate heavy irrigation. The Clear
lake project. all in all. is declared by
the federal engineers, to be one of the
best irrigation propositions in the west.

MORE PAYR0LLS WANTED
Among Other Things Phoenix Should
Have a Woolen Hill.

1t will be denied by nobody that
what Phoenix needs more than any
thing else, in an Industrial way, is more
payrolls. There are already num-
Der of small manufacturing institu-
tions, public utilities, railroads and
other things with regular pay rolls and
there will be more Nof them in the near
future the biggest thing in sight no
doubt, being the beet sugar factory and
its kindred enterprises. But there can
never be too many and the question is
now asked: why not have a woolen
mill?"
The question will probably provoke
a smile as every new suggestion is
bound to do, but the enterprise ap-
dozen other enterprises would if any
body would give them serious thought
and secure the interest of capital.
\ wooden mill has been in success
full operation, at Albuquerque for a long
time and it is worth a great deal more
to that city than most people imagine.
The building is a three story structure
and there are from seventy-five to one
hundred employees. The wool is raised
in that vicinity, bought in the rough,
cleaned, dyed woven into cloth and
made into clothes in the tailor shop
that is run in connection and reports
are that the enterprise is a dividend
paying one.

GAVE OFFICERS A run
Frank Hamilton Relapses Into the
Fraudulent Check Habit.

Frank Hamilton, the check artist, IS
i'm Jail again. Hamilton is a stone cut
ter. He came to Phoenix early last
May and before he had secured a job
of work he set lot of bogus checks
into circulation. They were all for $5
each. His plan was to buy something
to the amount of dollar or some
amount considerably less than the face
of the check and receive the balance
in change. The checks were all drawn
on the Valley bank. He was promptly
arrested and admitted his guilt and
said that he was drunk. He was SEN
fenced to the county Jail for forty days
for each offense, there were five of the
checks.
It was generally believed that the
sentence was rather severe, taking into
account the fact that Hamilton was
drunk and that the proceeds of his
villainy had amounted to only 500.
About a month ago a movement was
begun to get him out of Jail. A petition
for his pardon was signed by the
justice who sentenced him. by some of
his victims. and i'll fact by pretty near
ly everybody who happened to know
anything about the case. He was par
doned and he Immediately went to
work at Ligier's. He has not missed

Land for the erection of mill buildings
is certainly as cheap here as in Boston
and with the development of cheap
electric power at the Tonto reservoir
Phoenix ought to compete with the
world at least on certain lines of goods
where there is Il ready home market.
Even with electric power now available
and to be developed aside from the
Tonic dam, there should certainly be
a profit equal to anything that can be
done in Albuquerque. There will be
no trouble about getting operatives
when the mill is built and the posi-
tions open for them, and its the oper-
atives that make the pay rolls and the
pay rolls keep business going and
put money iI circulation.

that Hamilton had stuck him for a So
check. He called at the bakery on Sat
urday night and wanted to arrange
for the delivery of a pie daily to Burt
Alvord at the county Jail. He haggled
SO much over the price of the pies that
he threw Mr.. Pcttid off his guard and
when they had finally made deal for
a dOlar'S worth of pies Hamilton Of
fered a So check on the Valley bank. He
was given $4 but none of the pies have
been delivered.
Deputy Sheriff Duncan. who knew
where he was boarding went out to
look for him and he found him without
much trouble. Hamilton went TO Jail
willingly and asked permission to 90
upstairs and change his clothes. When
he came down he said he had $50 worth
of tools at Ligier's stone yard and he
wanted to go there and put them in Il
safe place. The officer took him to the
stone yard and the tools having been
secured the officer took him to the Jail

steps to the corridor of the sheriff S
office Hamilton darted by the officer
and ran to the rear of the Jail across
the street, through vacant lots and
alleys with officer Duncan in hot pur-
suit The longer the race lasted the
better showing the officer made.
The flight passed Andy Thoman's
house. Mr.. Thoman used to have j
record as a sprinter and he proceeded
to spell the officer. He caught Hamil-
ton within two blocks.
When he was locked up he admitted
the passing of the worthless check on
Pettid and said that altogether on
Saturday night and yesterday morn
ing he had disposed of five checks.
Again he pleaded drunkenness. No
complaint was made last night by any
of the other victims.
Late yesterday afternoon Mr.. Cotton,
proprietor of the Occidental hotel
saw Marshal Kinney and said that
Hamilton was at the hotel yesterday
afternoon to get a room. He had Sc
lected the one he wanted and offered
to pay for it on the spot. He pre-
