MESA POWER LINE.
Contract to be Let Soon. New Canal
Will be Run East of Highland.

According to Engineer Louis G. Hill
in charge Of all the reclamation work
being done by the government in Ari-
iona, the contract is soon to be let for
the construction Of the power line from
this place to Roosevelt. From time to
time references have been made Of the
survey of the transmission line which
has been in charge of Engineer A. II.
Demerick. but until the arrival Of Mr.
Hill in the valley il was not known
that the line would enter this place or
pass On the north side of the river. II
is now understood that the line will
run from Roosevelt to Mesa and here
be divided into one line going to Phoe-
nix and the other to the Sacaton In
dian reservation which is about thirty
miles south and a little west of Mesa.
The power which will be transmitted
to the Indians will be used by them
for pumping water for irrigation pur-
poses. 1t is understood that the line
running to Phoenix will be used by the
Pacific Gas & Electric company for
use within the corporate limits of the
capital town. For some time it was
thought that the Arizona Falls project
would furnish power for the Phoenix
concern but now it is stated
that this will be utilized by the south
side farmers.
One of the things of vital interest to
land owners east of the Mesa canal is
just where and when the east canal
will be constructed and where it will
be run. A survey has been made east
