also that the present differences exist
ing between the state land board and
the general government will cause de-
lays in the carrying out of plans OF
private which propose to re
claim large tracts of land in this sec
ton.
Colonel w. F.. Cody. representing
the original Cody-Salisbury canal pro-
position, was granted permission to re
claim 6S. 200 acres Of land under the
Carey act. lying on the north side OF
the Shoshone river. The Oregon Ba-
sin company was also granted the
necessary rights to use water from he
Shoshone river to reclaim 225 900 acres
of fertile land lying in what Is COM
monty known as the Oregon basin, and
situated below the Cody-Salisbury
tract. These rights were granted by
the state land board, which controls
the lands in question.
The Shoshone reservoir II irriga-
ton project Of the general government
as recommended by the reclamation
service, includes the cody-Salisbury
tract of 6S. 1000 acres and also 4I,OOo
acres lying below it. a total of $4,000
acres.
1t was understood that Colonel Cody
had turned over his rights 70 he Cody
Salisbury tract to the general govern
ment. but it develops that while he
agreed to do so. the transfer has not
been made, nor is there any likelihood
that it will be made unless the govern.
ment agrees to do nothing that will In
any way injure the Oregon basin pro
position. The entire matter now rests
with the state land board, which has
been given authority to act for Colonel

OF Interest to Sick People.
We have all the sympathy in the
world for sick people, and want to
treat them in a serious way There
is no humor in pain and affiiction,
but hard, earnest fact. 1t is impossi-
BILE for the patient to impress on 9TH
ers the extent of suffering they en-
dure, and their anxiety for relief. To
get well or be relieved is their one
thought, any remedy that will bring
this about has their everlasting graft
tude. We have thousands of letters
from people who have had dyspepsia,
sick headache and bilious attacks,
who tell us how thankful they were
for having used DR.. Gums Improved
