The delay in securing the sites
for the two dams above Louisa Zone
In Levisa and the other in Tug is
very annoying to the people to say
the least of 1t. After having Sc
cured the money by hard work
more than year ago, the public
feels that it has a right to expect
the work to be started as soon as
possible. More than 100000 peo-
pie in the valley are directly in
terested, and many more in the
valleys below the Big Sandy have
Interests at stake in this matter,
because the development OF the
vast mineral wealth OF the section
above here depends upon 1t. A
delay Of one year caused by neg.
llgence (if such is the case, and ii
appears to be in this instance is a
serious thing in matter Of such
Importance. 1t is difficult to fix
the, blame exactly where it be-
longs, but the trouble lies some
where from Cincinnati to Washing
ton.
