WATER USERS ASSOCIATIONS.
Residents Of Milk River valley Organize
for Big Irrigation Project.

Residents of the Milk river valley
are preparing to comply with the re-
Q%uirements of the federal reclamation
service in the natter of forming water
users associations. The purpose OF
these organizations is to secure a
guarantee from land owners that they
will take water from government ca.
nails at a stipulated price, and to col
lect the annual assessments when they
become due. The association will re.
turn these payments to the government
reclamation fund through the local
land Office.
Two organizations have been incor.
porated by those Interested in the
Milk river project, one to be known
as the Upper Milk River Water Users
association, and the other as the
Lower Milk River Water Users asso.
citation. Each member will subscribe
to the stock Of the association at the
rate of one share for each acre of his
land that will be irrigated. The Low
err Milk River Water Users associa.
ton has a capital stock OF 50. $50, 900,
divided into $50, 900 shares Of S225 each,
the area of land to be irrig ated being
about 1901 900 acres. In urging the
cooperation of ranchers in this mat.
ter, a bulletin prepared by an official
of the reclamation service says:
The engineer in charge OF the pro.
ject has wisely decided to divide the
Milk river valley into two districts,
making the Dodson dam the dividing
line-all of that part of the valley be
tween the Dodson dam and Havre to
be the upper, and that part between
said dam and Glasgow to be known as
the lower Milk river district.
The landholders of the lower Milk
river valley have an advantage over
the Yellowstone landholders, in as
much as the cost of construction of
the system will O be as much per
acre, while the land Is admitted to be
better than the land in the Yellow.
stone valley. In this valley the land
holders will be asked to subscribe for
stock in the association at $50 per
acre, or $3.50 per acre per year for
their irrigable lands for a period of
ten years, after which full title to the
water rights passes from the govern
ment % the subscriber 1t is estimated
that the cost of the lower Milk river
division of this system will be 50,
5 $1,000, the greater part of which will
be paid out among our home people,
as it is recommended by the depart
ment Ot1lcia vi that the settlers BE- given
preference in the employment of labor
on this work, and in fact the reclama-
ton act itself says mo Monaghan
labor shall be employed thereon"
If the landholders will act 10 con-
cert and Immediately sign for stock
within the next sixty days we are as.
sured by the government hat con-
struction will be commenced along
the valley before the coming fall, and
our people will thus early begin to
reap some reward from the project.

Matter of Compelling Witnesses to

Questions That ie to Be Decided
Paper Makers Are Also Involved.
CBy Associated press.l

WASHINGTON, d. c.. Oct. TO-
Solicitor General Hoyt today entered
a motion in the Supreme Court of the
United States to advance the hearing
i'll the cases against the General Paper
Company and others and the cases
Allister, connected with the Ameri-
can Tobacco Company.
Both sets of cases involve the right
to compel witnesses TO testify under
the Sherman antitrust law. 1t was
stated that the defendants in the paper
cases make no objection to early hear
ing The court took the motion into
consideration.
Tobacco Trust Won't Answer.
In the tobacco trust proceeding Nc
Allister and Hale refused to answer
questions before or produce papers
called for by federal grand jury up
on the grounds that there was no
authority for their examination and
that their answers would incriminate
them. They commended also that as
the proceeding was merely before q
grand jury it was directed at no one
in particular and this will be one
of the most important points to be
decided.
In urging early consideration the
solicitor general says:
The proceeding out of which these
appeals arose is of wide public inter
est and importance. 1t is based upon
the violation of the antitrust law by
corporations having capital stock of
many millions of dollars and control
ling great part of the tobacco In
dustry.
1.-The officers of two of these cor.
pcrations have, in this proceeding, re-
fused, unless compelled, to disclose
material facts. and it is necessary, as
soon as possible to determine the rules
of evidence upon which this and other
proceedings OF the kind must be con-
Quoted hereafter"
