The coming session Of the National
Irrigation congress TO be held al Al
Ibuquerque. September % To October
3, Is OF interest 10 people throughout
/ the United States who have been
watching the numerous governmental
reclamation projects in the south
west. In addition 10 the sessions Of
congress, the people Of New Mexico
are expending vast sums Of money
for the holding Of great interstate
industrial exposition. al which will
be assembled the greatest exhibits Of
irrigated land products and forestry
every brought together 60 the his
tory of the country
IN the work thus far undertaken
by the reclamation service, each IN
dertakiHg Is known and designa ted
as a certain project Thus far
these projects are in course Of con-
strnetion in L states.
Under the name OF New Mexico
and Texas Project. but better known
by the local name of Elephant
Butte. Is one Of the greatest Of all
irrigation projects Undertaken by the
service Through New Mexico from
north 10 south, on line averaging
about - miles vest of the center,
flows the northern waters Of the Rio
Grande river About 80 miles north
of the Old Mexican line the river
banks form the longest and narrow
est gorge within the territory OF the
Northern mountains. which derives
its name from a high peak among the
bordering bluffs. viz, Elephant
Butte" gorge.
Below the gorge the valley widens
out again, containing 10000 acres
of land In New Mexico, As 900 acres
in Texas and $4,000 acres in Old
Mexico easily subject to irrigation
from a huge reservoir to be built by
constructing dam at the mouth of
the above named gorge.
Quite a little of this land has been
under irrigation in a limited way,
by private systems, before the gov
eminent decided to undertake the
big project, and. on account of GER
tain rights which Old Mexico owned
in the waters of the river, 1t was ar
ranged by treaty to furnish enough
water from the immense new reser-
yoir to supply the $4,000 acres of
that government. The town of Engle
is on one side of the river and the
butte" is on the other, hence 1t Is
often called the "Engle dam"
The dam will rest on solid rock
60 feet below the river bed. and will
extend 1870 feet above the present
river surface, over $50 feet in all Its

now this al Elephant Butte will be

in the entire world that constructed
by England In Egypt at Assoura, on
the Nile. vas considered the marvel
Of the world but that was merely
the spreading OF the river. while this
will be the filling Of a gorge. the
depth Of which is $50 feet at the
dam, and the width varying from
1850 feet To several miles. and As
miles in length. submerging over 3S.-
600 acres OF land, and having a stor-
age capacity OF over , 100000 acre
feet Of water. With possibility of
increasing that capacity 10 from A.
600, 900 TO 1000. 900 acre feet in the
future-if ever such should be de-
sirable-by simply increasing the
height of the dam.
The Colorado river has an average
yearly flow of 500. 900 acre feet, and
the lands under the system as now
planned will require about 500, 900
acre feet. thus leaving a surplus OF
400, 900 acre feet when the reser-
voir is filled.
The engineers estimate the total
cost of the construction of the project
will be $500, 900. not including the
cost of the many miles of bitches
which have been built by owners of
private systems. and in use for years,
but which will now be turned over
to this one gigantic system controlled
by the government. One million dol
lars of this amount will come direct
~ from the government treasury, the
balance to be taken pro rata per acre
from the price, or lease per acre of
land according TO the method pro-
vided by the reclamation service.
For over 900 years the people of
Old Mexico along the river Just be
low the national boundary line have
been irrigating. until they were cul-
tivating $4,000 acres of land and
Using arout $4,000 acre feet of water

idnS--The Game
IFS to be Played

RENO. April 25.-"And Satan
came also That's what a politician
said Yesterday when he heard that
William Randolph Hearst and his CO.
horts are about to invade Nevada, in
fact already have invaded Nevada,
with the Independence league.
To some. the invasion Is welcome.
Hearst men always have sack and
are willing TO peddle from ii for ia
yors, to say nothing of paying mighty
high salaries TO workers in the po-
litical vineyard
But this time. IL may be said for
the OBLIGATION of those who might
be tempted to sound the timbrel and
make a loud noise of rejoicing, or
something like that. money only is
being paid for actual results.
Nevada has been added TO the
Hearst district of southern Califor-
mia.
In charge of the campaign is an old
police reporter who answers to the
name of J. l.. Eigholz. in polite so
ciety. md TO key wherever unre-
genera newspaper men foregather.
Eigholz il was who evolved the
unique plan of paying only for re-
suits. He adyertises for solicitors
These he sends out with petitions to
form the Independence league. Each
solicitor get so much a name, gen
orally 10 cents. only he don't get It
right away. nothing like that.
key earned his stand-in with the
boss with his little plan to send relia-
bic. secret employees of his own
around behind the men he hires to
get names, to verify each name.
Those not verified are not paid for.
II Is surprising how much money
key saved for the boss by this lit
tie scheme. and. as a man in the
Hearst service who saves money for
the boss is unique. the boss atten-
ton was attracted To "Ikey" right
away
George Cole of Tonopah has been
retained by the Hea1st forces to
lend lone TO the organization in
Nye and Esmeralda counties. Els
meralGa is real worried over the
league. too. and is sending up wall
that can be heard to high heaven.
Some say II will go before the peo-
pie with strong anti-gambling
plank and force the other two parties
TO fish or cut bait Some say 1t will
only organize completely enough 10
meet key" When be comes with the
sack, when IT will be turned into a
branch OF the independence league
NhateFer Is being done Is being
done very quietly. and some very
astnle managers and politicians are
watching each other closely to see
Just which way the cat Will iump.
though none of them are willing to
get bus and bell that same cat.
But when key comes. or sends
his lieutenants. there will be work
Tor every one. for names at 10 cents.
or two-bits each are pretty easy. and
lot OF good solicitors are not doing
much right now.
