Next Ten Days

This. sort of argument. however. d
not convincing to the men who are
backing the proposition. logical ~ II
may apear at first glance.
A study of the physical surround-
ings has satisfied the men back Of the
enterprise that conditions are entirely
different at the Baker & Biggs ranch.
where the first borings are to be made,
from what they are at the Geyser
mine. The geology in the neiGhbor-
hood OF the former Is indicative OF an
artesian stratum and money has been
subscribed to ascertain whether II
really exists there or not. II sue
cessful the discovery will be one OF the
greatest OF value. not only to the Wet
Mountain valley but to the Canon City
district as well. II large basin Of
artesian water is found, as It 10 sur
missed there will be, 1t can be con-
veyed by means of Grape creek and
used for domestic and irrigation pur-
poses on Lincoln Park.
Such q discovery In the Wet Noun
tain valley would be a great thing for
the people OF this section and would
give an impetus to the development Of
artesian sources OF water supply that
would add millions Of dollars to the
agricultural wealth OF Colorado. The
experiment soon to be made on the
Baker & Biggs ranch will be watched
with great interest by the people of
the Canon City district.

will cost many millions of dollars and
will provide the entire Arkansas val

rights have not been vested.
Secretary Garfield said that he de-
sired to correct the idea that the re-
clamation service was antagonistic to
the interests of the people and that
there was feeling on the part OF
some that the government was partic-
,ularIy interested in the carrying out
of certain reclamation work. He said
the government was interested in
these matters only to the extent OF
carrying out general plans, which Of
ten necessitated the overlooking OF
state boundary lines. He claimed that
these questions were of national inter-
est ann in no wise confined to locali-
ties.
With Secretary Garfield were Con-
gressman Warren A. Haggott, State
Engineer r. w. Jaycox and F. A
Wadleigh of the Rio Grande.
He spent the morning on the Creede
branch OF the Rio Grande and secured
a general idea of the conditions ex'
isting in that portion of the state. He
also acquainted himself with the Sar
Luis valley and the matter Of irriga'
ton projects. He left last night al
II o'clock for Garden City, Kansas.

Secretary of the Interior James r.
Garfield, F. H. Newell, director of the
United States Reclamation service, and
party, who were in the western part
of the state on an inspection trip the
first of the week, stopped off in Pue-
bio, a few hours while on their re-
turn to Washington Tuesday night and
both Secretary Garfield and Mr.. New
ell made short talks at a mass meeting
In the rooms of the Business Mems as
sociation. The feature of the meeting
was a proposition suggested by the
Business Mems association for a tun-
mel under Tennessee pass by means' Of
which the waters which now flow
through the Grand river into the Pa
cific ocean would be diverted into the
Arkansas river valley and eventually
into the Atlantic.
The proposition was given its first
public discussion by the business men
of Pueblo before the visitors.

While this, perhaps, is the largest
irrigation scheme ever brought to the
attention of the government, cannot be
accomplished in weeks or months or
perhaps years. there is little doubt
that 1t will be brought about in the
end. from the progressive attitude
established by the business men, the
willingness OF the government ofi-
cials to cooperate in the accomplish
ment of the vast enterprise. which
means millions of dollars to the val

A matter that can hardly fail to be
Of interest to the people of Canon City
and vicinity is the proposition Of our
fellow townsmen, Dali. De Weese and
Messrs. Baker and Biggs, to tap the
artesian water supply believed to un-
derlie the Wet Mountain Valley, and
utilize it for Irrigation purposes. Care
full and elaborate plans have been
made with this end in view and the
exploitation Of the enterprise will be-
gin very shortly under the personal di-
rection of Mr.. De Weese, who has CIV
en- the subject great deal Of study
and attention during the last few
months. rr
Machinery has been ordered for bor-
ing operations and the men at the head
Of the movement believe that they will
be successful in tapping the artesian
sources OF supply at no great depth
from the surface. a
At any rate. they will make an ex-
haustive test Of the matter before los
ing their faith in the poroposition. In
relation to the enterprise, as In all
others, there are those who are skep-
teal about the
tical about its success. They point to
the shaft of the Geyser mine at Sill
yer Cliff, which Is $500 feet deep and
without water. and say that II there
was an artesian supply in the. valley
the miners would certainly have found
1t in their descent into the earth.

mine, where your power plant is To-
Gated, you create electrical power
which is transmitted to the pumping
plants at various points down the val
ley 1t ought to be big success. 1t
is simply question of capital, and
there is no project embracing irriga-
ton that seems to be more worthy of
pushing"
Secretary Garfield, when asked
about the success of electrical pump
ing plants. said that he had seen a
number of electrical turbines working
nicely, and mentioned one in particu-
lar, in Arizona, that throws a 24-inch
stream of water.
Officers and directors of the Kansas
Colorado company's project are nat
urally very much pleased with the
words of encouragement from Secre-
tary Garfield and Director Newell, be-
cause they are touring Colorado for
the express purpose of studying con-
ditions in connection with all plans
for the development and advancement
of the state.

The children and grandchildren Of
the late Joseph Rothchild, former

fort to have the executors OF the
estate deliver an accounting In the
complaint they charge the executors,
Louis and Samuel Rothchild. sons OF
Joseph. with extravaganza In the man
agement OF the estate, Joseph Roth
child died In 1883, leaving an estate
estimated to be worth $4,000, the llfd
use of which went to his widow, Mrs,
Rothchlld died in 1897. The heirs
succeeding to Mrs. Rothchid's Inter
ests claim that the executors should
have closed up the estate within n
year after Mr.. Rothchlld died and
give full control to the widow, In
stead Of doing this the executors re-
tained control for several years longer.
The heirs now want to have the execu-
tors explain all the expenditures they
made during the period In which 1t Is
alleged they wrongfully retained CON
