1t will be good news to friends of
Bismarck and the. military post at
Fort Lincoln to learn by today's press
dispatches that the war department
has set aside sum from the general
department fund to increase Fort
Lincoln to battalion post, and to
lay water mains from Bismarck to the
fort. This will insure a permanent
supply of pure and disable water, and
the additional appropriation will
make. the new post one of consider
able dignity and Importance. In time,
Fort Lincoln will be such a post as
was originally planned regimental
post, and one of the permanent and
beautiful military establishments of
the country. ... ~,

promise of achieving Improvement,
and that is, after all, the main con-
sideration.

Inn keepers are at present protected
by law, to- the extent that it is a mis-
demeanor to "beat board bill" to
put the matter expressively if not ele-
gantly. Now it is proposed by a bill in
the house to afford livery stable keep
ers the same protection. Just why
one class of business men should be
afforded especial protection in these
matters is not clear. If it is a mis-
demeanor to defraud one creditor, it
ought to be a misdemeanor to defraud
any creditor. Let us make it a mis-
demeanor to ''beat a bill" of any
kind. Give the butcher and the baker
and the candlestick maker the same
opportunity to visit the vengeance
of the law upon lax debtors.

Meeting
GOVERNMENT ENGINEERS FUR.
THEIR explain BISMARCK IR-
> RIGATION PROJECT.
FIRST STEPS TAKEN LAST NIGHT
TO FORM WATER USERS
81 ASSOCIATION.

A meeting of property owners along
| the proposed irrigation ditch in this
county and others was held last even.
| ing in the United States court room
about 200 persons being present.
The first speaker was H. A. Storrs,
engineer in charge of the work. In
| substance he said:
The recent irrigation congress has
presented to the people of North
Dakota an abundance of general in
formation in regard to the subject of
irrigation.
1t now becomes necessary to pre-
sent the details regarding the pro-
posed irrigation projects of the re-
clamation service in order that the
people of Bismarck and vicinity as
well as those at Buford may under
stand exactly what the offer is, which
is made to them by the government,
in regard to the construction of the
proposed pumping plant and canal
systems. Briefly outlining the prin-
cipal features of the Bismarck pro-
ject, they are as follows: ..,
A pumping plant on the bank of
the Missouri river within one mile of
the Northern Pacific bridge, capable
of pumping from the Missouri river
sufficient water to irrigate about
$4,000 acres. This water to be deliv-
cred into a main canal, which will
follow along the top contour of the
lower bench or bottom lands into the
valley of Apple Creek. Water can be
delivered directly from the ditch to
irrigate about 1000 acres Of land ".
ing between it and the river. At a
point on this main canal about two
miles from its head a second pump
ing plant will be located, capable of
pumping from this canal to the bench
on which the military post is sit
uated, sufficient water to irrigate the
1000 acres Of land lying on that
bench. 1t is proposed in the same
pumping plant to pump water to the
hgher ground lying south of the
penitentiary. Only about a thousand
acres can be reached by this higher
line and on account of the great in
crease in expense 1t may not be DEEM
ed feasible to include all of this high
est bench in the project.
An extension Of the project is con-
templated. when sufficient additional
data shall have been obtained regard
ing the food discharge Of Apple
Creek to enable plans and estimates
70 De made. on the basis Of construct
ing dam on Apple Creek for stor.
ing its flood waters and delivering
these by gravity to additional irri.
gable lands lying adjacent to the
present project In the bottoms OF An
pie Creek and Hay Creek. It NAV ba
possible to increase the area nv
about 5000 acres in this way, thus
making the total extent OF the project
about 10000 acres. whether this az.
tension can be made without increas-
ing the cost per acre for the land to
pc irrigated cannot vet be stated
dennitely Y is believed, however.
that the following statement as to
probable cost will be approximately
correct whatever the extent Of the
project
From preliminary estimates it an
pears that at cost not exceeding ;22
per acre, the entire system including
pumping plants, reservoirs and canal
system can be built. II this ia paid

livered the water during one irriga-
ton season, will require the first an
nual payment on the lands. The gov
eminent will continue to maintain
and operate the irrigation system un-
til the majority OF the shareholders
have made the required ten annual
payments, when the entire system will
be turned over to the association for
future maintenance and operation,
the government, however, retaining
general supervision.
In reply to question he said the
area covered by the Bismarck project
was about five miles east and west by
si,- miles north and south, along APP
pie creek, but if reservoirs were built
near Mckenzie slough much larger
area would be covered. w.
At this point E. H. Wilson was
elected chairman and J. F. Philbricl1
secretary of the meeting. After gen.
eral discussion as to the best mode
of organizing water users associa.
ton it was decided the chair name a
committee of five property owners
adjacent to the proposed canal to
take the necessary steps toward form.
Ing such association. Those appoint
ed will be named in the city papers
when selected. nix
Capt. Baker, Gen. Williams and J..
F. Philbrick were appointed a commit
tee on resolutions.
In an earnest manner Gen. Williams
commented upon the apparent lack of
interest in this matter which. meant
SO much for the prosperity of this sec
ton. He said the government was do
ing all that could be expected of it,
yet we were sleeping. Within ten
days after the irrigation bill had be-
come a law the southwestern states
were moving. Our representatives in
congress had been untiring in getting
the department interested in North
Dakota irrigation work, and yet the
people to be most benefited were still
sleeping and other states were get
ting the money furnished by North
Dakota for this work He hoped the
next meeting would be attended by
every land owner in the proposed irri-
CATION district and decided action
taken at once.
2 J. A. French of the reclamation
service said the main pumps would be
placed on the river bank below the
old brewery and. water forced to
reservoir on Apple creek, where an
other pump will force 1t to other res
ervoirs, the district to be irrigated
comprising about $4,000 acres.
In reply to question by Capt.
Baker, Mr.. Storrs said no payment by
water users would be required until
water has been furnished one season.
that 1T would require from a year and
a half to two years to construct the
works, and that $250.000 had been
set aside for the purpose. He also
said thorough examination of gov.
eminent lands would be made to dis
close what amount OF coal they con-
tain.
A number of persons spoke on va
rious topics. and the meeting adjourn
ed to next Tuesday evening -at same.
piace-at 1880 o'clock, when the va
rious committees will report and it is
hoped matters will be sufficiently adj
yanced to go ahead with the organi-
cation OF water users association.

shrink moaning, into the corner of the shed and
gasp for breath. Finally with mighty effort he
aroused himself and grabbing a shovel he dug

him that he was the lucky one at the drawing and
that the elephas africanus was at the railway

as fast as possible, his thin face illumined with
smile and his ebony eyes shining with consuming
JOY,
But at the door he paused. To relate his good
fortune to Aunt Cyndia would be to confess his
weakness, against which he had fought valiantly
and in vain, but which heretofore he had hidden
