Reservoir Withdrawals.

The secretary OF the interior has
rendered decision, in relation TO tb"
withdrawal of lands for reservoir
sites.
Under the operations of the irriga-
ton law 100000 900 acres believed to
be susceptible Of irrigation have been.
temporarily withdrawn by the SeCre-
tary and the local land officers have
been directed. in case of lands with
drawn for irrigation works. such as
reservoir sites. etc, to allow no en-
tries OF any kind whatever within the
areas withdrawn until the withdrawal
shall have been modified or revoked.
In timber and stone applications,
where no payment for such lands has,
been made at the date of the with
drawal, it is held that no segregation
has been effected, no vested interest
in the application accrued. and c0nse-
UuentIy the. government Withdrawals
become operative upon such applica
lions and effect a withdrawal thereof
so as to terminate the contingent right
of the applicant, and devote the land
to the objects and purposes Of the act
under which the orders Of withdrawal
were made.
The effect Of this decision Is to pro
tect the government from hOldups by
spectators. These spectators. by ap-
pearing early in the sections where
Withdrawals are made or contcmplat-
ed. secure locations on valuable res
crvoir sites which they afterward hold
at exorbitant prices and thus delay or
prevent the construction Of important
irrigation works by the government.
