PH0eNICIANS FEELING GOOD
Over the Promised Early Construc-

The news of the awarding by the de- partment of the interior of the con tract of the building of the Tonto dam to J. NJ. O'Rourke X Co.,, of Gal weston, Texas, the Republican says, has brought gladness to the hearts of the people of Phoenix and scores of ed themselves as feeling that an era of unequalled prosperity has dawned for Salt river valley. The work according to contract will be completed in two years time, and the bidder who re. ceived the contract has had wide ex- perience in the building of concrete dams. The firm which will build the Tonto dam has just completed the great seawall fronting the city of Gal weston, which is conceded to be one of the greatest engineering feats of pres ent times.
 The cement mill at the damsite is now completed aud the manufacture of cement by the government will be commenced as soon as the roads per init of the hauling of oil from Globe. The power plant is ready for use and within very short time active work on the great project may be expected The rains of the past two months mean sufficient water for irrigation purposes until the dam is ready to make certain the supply.
 Engineer Bernard fl. Mather of the reclamation service is now in the city to attend to the practical work of lay ing out canals for the new project. It ia probable that the present canal sys tems will be changed to some extent in 80 much as to accommodate to the best advantage every holder under the Water Users association. Mir. Mather has been with the reclamation service for many years and has had practical experience in the line of work he Is sent here to undertake. Mir Mather stated yesterday afternoon that he hoped within the next two years to see complete change in the aspect of the Salt River valley.
