He could not until such a time give a statement as to the probable ac- tion of the water company, and even not then until Judge c. r. Ainsworth had returned from the coast. MT. Aims worth being his counsel. He was yes terday expected to return on Sunday morning.
 Captain J. L. B. Alexander said last night: "The department of the interior has held that the Arizona Water com pany must furnish the government title in fee simple for the land now claimed by it as a right of way. It is likely such title will be secured by the canal company by securing quit claim deeds from the present owners of the land. This done, the sale will likely be closed at once. I cannot say how long a time this will take. nor can I say whether the canal company will take this action. I know the abstract was not passed because of this flaw in the title to the lands offered for sale"

THE SALE DELAYED
 BY FLAW IN IT'LL
At Least the Government Questions Arizona Water Co.'S. Right of Way.

The cause of the delay in the'perfec- government and the passing between the parties of the money consideration in the sale has been a matter of con- siderable curiosity lately. Some time ago the deeds of the property of the Arizona Water company to the gov eTnment were put on record, but at the time it was explained that this. was a usual requirement of the government in the purchase of lands and was nec- essary before the abstract. of the prop eFty would be finally passed. About a week ago it was learned that the ab- stTacts had been forwarded from Washington to Phoenix for the pur- pose of correction, but it was not until yesterday that the points involved were made public. The abstracts came in yesterday mornings mail to J. L. B. Alexander. United States district at toFney, who had examined them in the first instance.
 Accompanying the abstracts was a copy of a ruling made by the depart ment of the interior, which explains the cause of the delay. This ruling holds that the lands occupied by the canals sought to be sold by the water company to the government, which were passed in the agreement at S1O,OOO and designated a rights of way, do not now stand in the name of the water company and that that corporation is not capable of making a valid deed to the same The ruling is based on a law under which the use of the land as right of way was first secured by the canal companies. This law gave the right to the government to grant an easement to the canal company to use the land for canal purposes. The law provides that when the company ceases to use the land for canal pur- poses the title to the land passes to the person subsequently, securing a patent right to the same or a right under any of the numerous laws by which title IS passed to the first settler by the gov ernment.
 Under the holding of the depart ment. the canal company must furnlsh inc government title in fee simple to the rights of way. If that is done the sale will be at once consummated ana the payment made. It is not known how much of the land occupied by the canal company as right of way tltie will have to be secured to, but 1t IS the

CAMP EQUIPMENT
 AT GRANITE REEF
Progress Of PreIiminaries fer Con-
 structiOn of Diversion Dam.

Engineer James w. Martin, who is in charge of the government force at Granite Reef, the site selected for the new diversion dam, is rushing the pre- liminaries for the construction of the dam as fast as possible. MT. Martin is a new man in the service and has been here several weeks but nothing was said concerning him until his con- nectiOn with the service had been of ficially announced from Washignton. He came here from southern California where he has had laarge experience in field and construction work.
 Thus far all the work done has been in making camp" and stretching the proposed power line across the river channel One who recently visited the place reports that MT. Martin has an ideal camp situated on the south side of the river. His mess house is model, for the dam is to be con structed by force account. the govern ment will soon have a large force em- ployed and it has been demonstrated that it is best to make thorough prep aration for large affairs in the very beginning, having in mind sanitation and the comfort of the men employed as well as convenience and economy
 The kitchen is a structure thirty feet square and built for the cOnven- fence of the cooks. Running from the kitchen, on the same side of it, and diverging like two fingers of a hand spread out, or V-shaped, are two din- ing rooms, each of which is sixteen feet wide and eighteen feet long. In each of these dining rooms the tables are hollow square, seats for diners on the outside. while the walters are within. The floor of the structure is of cement and the walls are of cor rugated iron, up to a point above a mans head, where there is a screen work two feet wide, extending clear around the building, for ventilation. Bunk houses, tents and other camp structures are being put up as fast as possible, the only other building of importance being the cement shed that was built some time ago. There are now twenty or twenty-five men employed and more will be added as fast as they can be utilized.
 The only thing done sin the way of construction so far is the power line across the river. 4 cable three -eighths of an inch in diameter runs from the high cliff on the north side of the river to a firm fastening on the south side of the river. From this cable WHICH HdS d span OA dOOuI AoOV ASCe' and is high above the river, are sus- pended three electric wires, held apart by insulation, and over which electric power is to be transmitted across the river.
 Just as soon as camp equipment IS completed for the accommodation of a large force work will begin on the building of the headgates for the pro- iected canals on both sides of the river and the construction of the dam will follow, from both sides toward the oenteF.

HOME CHOPPERS GILD
 OF THE TALISMAN
Another Move Toward the Success
 of George EiaxweITs Project.

The Republican has printed from time to time descriptions of the 'HOmecroft" project in which George H. Maxwell has been interested for several years and in which he has been trying with some success to in - terest others. The first definite step taken by MT. Maxwell was the secur- ing of a tract of land near Phoenix some years ago to be subdivided into homecrOfts.
 Another step has now been taken. An association has been formed. known as The Homecrofters' Gild of the Talisman. Articles of incorpora- tion of the association were filed in the office of the county recorder yes terday. The incorporatOrs are George H. Maxwell, Donald H. Maxwell and F.. Talmadge of Newton. Mass, anc Charles K. HoImburg and Edward H. Stearns of Chicago
 The object of the association as set forth in the articles is ito encourage and facilitate the acquisition of small tracts of land for homes to be known as hOmecrofts where mothers can rear their children in home gardens and wageworkers enjoy individual indus trial independence in homes on their own land where each shall occupy and possess the land he can use and no more"
 Another object is to secure cooper atiOn in bringing the prime object about and to procure lands for subdi- vision into homecrofts; to sell or lease homecrofts on terms of payments which shall be in installments and cover a long period of years so as to enable wage earners to secure them; to erect necessary buildings and to provide modern improvements; to conduct an educational campaign for a public school system in which all children shall be taught gardening and homecrOft and to bring about state
