RECLAMATION PROJECT.

The corps of civil engineers of the s..
Y. university under the supervision of
Prof. Jarvis. have completed the run
ming of three different lines of surveys
for the construction of the canal and
reservoir to bring under irrigation
$500 acres of land on Provo bench. JOS
eph r. Murdoch in company with Uncle
Jesse Knight, has returned from an
inspection of one of the proposed lines
and in all probability at the next board
meeting Of the university the same will
be accepted, The proposed reservoir is
situated in the neighborhood of Kamas.
Summit county, at the head of the
Provo river and will have
five small and three medium lakes
having storage capacity sufficient to
bring under cultivation $500 acres. The
course of the water from the reservoir
will be down the Provo river until a
given point in Provo canyon is reach
ed, where the head of the canal will
be located.
The canal will convey water to put
under irrigation the magnificent gift
of 500 acres of land from Jesse Knight
to the Brigham Young university. OPP
lions have already been offered in the
sums ranging from 500 to SIPS an acre
that will receive Il water right under
the said construction.
The conditional 500 acre gift as soon
as water is secured will mean that the
university will have 1000 acres all
through the generosity of Uncle Jesse
and the Knight family,

UNDER POST0FFICE ORDERS
/ In Order to Qualify as Second Glass
Mail-Means Loss of $4,000 to
$4,000 Yearly.

Advertising matter will be excluded
from the Modern Woodman and the
Royal Neighbor in the future, which
will mean loss Of from $4,000 to
100000 year to the two fraternities.
From now on the paper will consist of
reading matter only. This change in
the makeup is the result of the de-
cision of the postal authorities to the
effect that papers enjoying the privi-
legeS of second class matter will not
be allowed to contain advertisements.
The law in regard to second class mat
ter requires that bona fide paid sub
scription list be had, and as fraternal
orders charge nothing for the papers
which they send out to the members
of the societies, they were unable to
come under this head until a special
act was framed placing them in the
second class if advertisements were
excluded.

COMPLAINT OF
CAB SERVICE
Citizen Condemns Lack Of FaciIi-
ties in Rock Is.
land.
MAKES A BAD IMPRESSION
Field is Here for Thriving Business
II Properly Man.
aged.

What Rock Island needs, as much
as anything on EARTH" remarked cit
izen who had just returned from the
east Saturday night, lis an up-to-date
bus or cab, line. The service here at
the present time would be disgrace
to city of 5000 inhabitants. In fact,
l know of cities of less than 5000 that
would be ashamed of the conveyances
that hang around the railroad stations
when trains come into this city.
For instance, tonight quite num-
Der Of Rock Island people arrived from
Chicago on the train l came on, and
most of them were obliged to take the
street car down town because of the
inadequate cab facilities at the Thirty
first street depot 1t is a disgrace to
the city and it makes woeful impress
sion upon strangers"
Hack Service IL AbOminable.
The street hack service in Rock IS
land, it may be said, apropos of the
observations of the citizen quoted, has
been subject of agitation for some
years. The Argua has often spoken OF
it, and has advanced the hope that II
would be improved. There is a profit
able business here for the enterprise
that puts in an up-to-date night car
riage service. While those who have
been engaged in the business fOI
years claim that this is not the case
their position is not in harmony with
the common sense view of the situa
ton. With the main railroad station
a mile and half from the business
section of town, and equally as fan
from the center of the residence por
ton, a city of $4,000 should afford
ample demand for cab service, especi
ally at night. Rock Island ought to be
no different from other cities, botf
larger and smaller, in this respect
True, the street car service of the
Tri-City Railway company, with two
lines running in front of the doors OF
the Rock Island station, furnishes al
accommodation that few cities possess
but there are a great many people who
are not disposed to stand around. ant
wait six or seven minutes for a car
especially on a stormy night. Ant
there is large percentage of the PEG
pie who travel who would prefer> {
cab under all circumstances.
Field IL Here.
The trouble with the cab lines o
Rock Island is lack of management
The conveyances are miserable olC
shacks, and the horses in many in
stances such pitiable spectacles tina
existence seems so much of a burden
to them that the ordinary mans sens
of humanity revolts against putting tn
added hardship of compelling them t
haul him down town.
A modern cab service, properly man
aged, would pay in Rock Island, pal
ticularly at night There is no doub
hat hot
