ST. LOUIS SEEKS FOR
WATER IN COLORADO

A special dispatch from Pueblo to
the St Louis Globe Democrat under
date of the 7th inst, says:
Engineer Hiram Phillips of St
Louis is spending considerable time
prospecting in the vicinity of the
Royal Gorge. Mr.. Phillips is not
searching for either real gold or FOOLS
gold, nor is he specially attracted by
the magnificence of the scenery there
about. What he is looking for is
water. Here appears an apparent
paradox, for the whole Arkansas river
pours through the gorge, while at the
east end of this nine-mile canon
Grape creeks roaring stream joins it
from the south. In this country water
is one thing, but uDappropriated water
is an entirely different proposition.
You may come upon swift torrent
far in the lonely wilderness of the
Rocky Mountains where there is not
a road or habitation, yet on investi-
CATION, you are likely to find that
every quart or gallon, or rather every
"inch," of that stream is absolutely
and legally and owned by somebody.
It's known and carefully measured
current is divided up into score or a
hundred or more volumes, described
as "cubic feet per second" or as min
ers' inches" and these respective own
ers, or the lands on which their shares
of water are to be used, may be To-
Gated a hundred miles away.
AS time goes on these water rights
steadily advance in value. Land, es-
pecially of the agricultural sort, can
not appreciate beyond certain figure.
An acre set in fruit trees of bearing
age may be taken as the highest value
in land, unless it be gardening tracts
