Such a canal would give enough water to
redeem thousands OF acres Of good Amer
lean soil, and the citizens OF Montana claim
that 1t ought to be so used. They say that
the waters fall in the mountains OF the
United States and they ought to water
the United States. The Canadians natur-
ally object. They say that the water hay
ing fallen in our country is no reason that
we should keep IT, for IL may have evap-
GRATED from Canada, and that they have
a common right to It since 1t has been
flowing through its present course for
thousands of years. l understand that the
two governments are now In consultation
regarding the use of these lakes and that
an amicable arrangement may be expected.
There is no question but that Uncle Sam
wants his share Of the st. Mary's lakes.
In the reclamation projects. approved by
the secretary OF the interior, as per the
bulletin published last September, 100000
has been set aside for retaining 200, 600
acres along the Milk river, and there are
several schemes outlined by the geological
survey, all Of which include the use OF
these lakes One is to make a fifty-foot
dam one-haif mile long at the lakes and
then cut a canal from there into Cut Iiank
creek, a tributary Of the Marias river and
/ by another dam and a second canal TO
/ throw the water into the MIX river. This
would give water enough for the reolama-
ton OF 10000 acres of land I'm the upper
MIX river valley. near the Great Northern
! railroad
! In addition to this there are other
schemes which would lead to the redemp-
| ton OF thousands Of acres more, the water
coming chiefly from St. Mary's lakes.
In the meantime the Canadians say that
the Mix river runs for 100 miles or more
through Canada before It goes back into
the United States and that II the Amer
leans disturb their irrigation works here
the waters OF that river might be ma
terially diminished by being spread over
Canadian lands.
