A PLACE OF BEAUTY AND CT
PLEASURE
WILL Be COMPLETED AUGUST Is
Canyon Lake Once More to Take
It's Place Among the Great
Summer Resorts

adorns the messy banks of the
historic Canyon Lake is once
more to be the favorite haunt of
pleasure seekers, who love to
roam among the fragrant YER
dure OF natures favored spots
drunk in the sublimity of the
rlch mountain landscape.
The once popular pleasure
resort is already beginning to
assume tho appearance Of a
characteristic summerpark. The
work Of adding convenience to
it's magni6cence is progressing
very rapidly under the super
vision OF David Thomas. MIR.
Thomas is exerting every en-
ergy to make the resort all that
can be desired. He has secured
the services Of the Crouch line
and q special will always be at
the disposal of the public. A
large modern pavilion and band
stand, already in the course of
construction will be beautifully
situated among tho overhang-
ing trees upon a slight eminence
over looking the placid waters
OF Canyon Lake. The boat
house which is being erected
will furnish a choice assortment
of new boats.
The 18th Of August has been
set as the time for the grand
opening and visitors are ex-
peeted from every part of the
Hills.
The park is destined to be
one Of the most popular in this
section Of the state. The loca-
ton is a splendid one. Here
the pleasure seeker can partake
of rest and comfort, Joy and
recreation. Here the strain and
strife of business life may be
forgotten and the weary and
worried can find repose in the
attractive solitude of a noun
tain home, where the cool, Sc
questered silence is unbroken
save by the ripping Of waters
and the splash of oars.

WATER COMMISSION.
State Board Meets at
Deadwood.

-, Deadwood, S. d., July 49,
The first meeting Of the water
commission of the state #
south Dakota was held at the
franklln hotel in this city. The
BOARD consists of Walter Hamil-
ton, representing district No. 1,
composed of the counties of
Butte. Meade and Lawrence; S.
n. Wilson of Hot Springs, COM
missioner of district No. 9,
which includes all other counties
west of the Missouri river, and
). Il. Lea, state engineer, the
president ex-ot1icio Of the board.
A second meeting wi be he d
here on Monday, after which
me members will go to Belle
Fourche to inspect the great
government irrigation scheme.
A few days later another session
! will be held at Hot Springs, at
ter which the board will adjourn
until its next regular meeting at
Pierre next March,
State Engineer Lea says, "We
expect to see the time when
steamers will again ply up and
down the Missouri river as of
Old. Of course it is impossible
now and unnecessary on account
OF the sparseness of population,
but when the country is filed
up and irrigation by artesian
wells, which | think it will be
some day, steamers again will
appear on the upper Missouri.
L believe it will be possible to
use the waters Of the Missouri
for irrigation. There is a man
now near Pierre who Is doing
that very thing, raising the
water to irligate his land by
pumping 1t with a steam engine.
AS we were in doubt whether
the federal government. which
has jurisdiction over navigable
streams, would permit it, we re-
ferred the matter to Washing
ton and were informed that
there would be no interference
by the United States SO long as
there were no dams or break
waters erected that would act
as barriers to navigation. This
ruling will have an important
bearing upon the future of this
state. Sioux Fall Press.
