A scheme of great Importance, having
relation to the future training Of French
naval officers. has been prepared at the
ministry of marine, and is to be discussed
:his month by the superior council of the
uavy and in the following month to be
>umitted to the chambers. few weeks
since the minister of marine addressed a
memorandum to the naval prefect at
Brest, drawing his attention to the in
sreasing necessity of familiarizing naval
>adets with the use of mechanical tools
and the construction maintenance and
working of steam and other machinery
He said that the necessity OF compe-
tence in this matter was daily growing
greater. owing to the multiplicity of me-
chanfcal appliances or board ships of war.
Therefore. though 1t was vital not to d.
minish the seamaniike qualities of the
officers. there must enter into their train
ing knowledge of the as,working Of machin-
cry. because this had become as fndis-
uensabie as that OF the working of sails
had been formerly. The object OF this
memorandum was to institute an inquiry
into the possibility of creating at Brest q

UINTAH RESERVATION
SALOONS MUST MOVE
A Movement on Foot to Abolish All
Liquor Houses Doing Business
Within Ten Miles of an In
dian Reserve.

Vernal Express: There is a move
ment on foot to abolish the saloons
on the reservation, and If the couL-
ty commissioners of Uintah and Wa
satch counties do not exercise their
power, the question will be carried
up to the district court; then to the
government and then to the presi-
deht, in case there is no favorable
action along the line.
But it is hardly probable that such
strenuous efforts will have to be
made as those who are behind the
movement believe that the commits
sioners of the two counties will grant
what appears to be the wishes OF
a large number of people on the res
ervation.
j. e. Flanders, special agent OF
the department of the interior, to
which department the question has
been referred. has been on the reser-
walton for several days looking into
the matter. Yesterday he was in con-
ference with the Uintah county COM
missioners, and was well satisfied
with the result of that conference
He says the commissioners signified
their willingness to act providing the
commissioners of Wasatch county
are favorable, and is of the opinion
that they will be.
He will go from here to Heber, and
will put the question up to them.

BUILDING OUR CANAL
INTO THE STATE OF UTAH

In dealing with the report that
the government proposes to extend
the Grand Valley High Line canal
into Utah, the Salt Lake City Her.
aid of yesterday has the following
to say:
That the federal reclamation SER
vice intends to go ahead with what
is known as the High Line canal, or
the Grand River irrigation project in
western Colorado, and that it is in
tended to reclaim some of the land
across the line in Utah, seems evident
from an article in the Christmas
number of The Worlds Work, by
Arthur w. Page, on 1.-The Real Con-
quest of the West"
Accompanying the article is a
map prepared according to the data
ON file in the Office of the secretary
of the interior, showing in detail the
location and extent of the various
projects. From this map it is evil
dent that the Grand River project
will be much larger than has been
anticipated and will exend a consid-
cradle distance into Utah. From the
map it seems that the land in this
state to be reclaimed by this project
extends from the point where the
Rio Grande crosses the state line in
southwesterly direction as far as
Moab. This section is now desert,
the land being practically valueless.
when Secretary Garfield of the
interior department made his recent
journey throughout the west he was
accompanied by the author of the arti-
Gle, and therefore it is thought Mr..
Page speaks from authority. In
F., fact, his exposition of the reclama-
ton work of the government was ed
tied by the secretay before being
authority.
THE article by Mr.. Page goes ex-
tensively into the matter of irriga-
tion and the reclamation of the arid
sections of the west and is profusely
| illustrated.
