Missouri Pacific Extension.

struction company of this city has Sc
cured the contract to build the Mis-
souri, Pacific branch from this city to
Crane, on the White River road, a dis
lance of thirty miles. Terms of con-
tract have not yet been learned here,
but it is understood that work will be-
gin Immediately. The fact that the
contract has been let from here to
Crane settles the dispute between that
place and Aurora, which was also
competing for the terminal. The line
is to be finished by April 1, 1906, and
it is said by officials of the road that
before that time the northern extern
sion from here to Bagna1 will have
been commenced.

STATE CONTROLS WATER.
Available Supply on Uintah Reserva-
ton Has Been Filed Upon.

Washington, Aug. 1S.-Acting Secre-
tary Ryan of the interior department
has decided that while mineral entries
are permissible now on forest reserves
in the Uintah reservation in Utah, such
entries will not be allowed on others of
those lands for sixty days.
The decision follows:
First-That the lands within the
boundaries of the forest reserve are
now open to mineral exploration and
location.
Second-That during the sixty-day
period provided for in the proclama-
ton the lands to be opened can be
settled upon, occupied and entered
only in accordance with the terms of
the proclamation. and are not subject
to mineral exploration or location.
Third-That after that period such
of these lands as are mineral in char
acter will be subject to the operation
of the mining laws as are other public
lands of like character.
Fourth-That the control and use of
the waters flowing over and upon these
lands are governed by the laws of the
state.
Fifth-That these lands are not sub
ject to the control or under the juris-
diction of the Indian bureau of this
department after the date fixed for the
opening of said lands in the presidents
proclamation.
All Water Filed On.
Salt Lake, Aug. 18.-The decision
of the interior department that the
control of the waters of the Uintah In
dian reservation is vested in the state
of Utah will have an important bear
ing on the right of settlers who will
make homestead entries under the
privileges acquired under the drawing
now going on at Provo. Practically
all the water in these lands has been
filed on by private parties and corpora
lions under the laws of Utah, corpor-
atoms alone having made filings for
more water than is flowing on the
If their claims shall be
granted the homesteaders will have to
make terms with them for the pur-
chase of the water, as the lands sub
ject to homestead entry are valueless
except under irrigation. The state en-
gineer has not yet passed upon any of
these claims on file in his office, and
the homesteaders probably will be
given an opportunity to protest before
the water rights are finally granted.
