The people of the Grand valley are
going through the same trouble at
the present time endeavoring to get
the government to start work upon
the High Line canal as was expert
enced in Montrose during the early
stages of the Gunnison tunnel. 1t is
now said that the orchardists around
Palisade. through which the canal
will run. are asking $156.000 of the
government for the right of way.
while the government has figured
the damage carefully and fixes 1t
only at $4,000. Others are putting
every impediment possible in the
way of construction by the govern
ment and holding out on every pos
sible technicality: but IL the govern
ment really decides to construct the
canal it will go right ahead with the
work after having given those who
are injured by the right of way fair
price for their holdings. as well as
for all bitches which 1t is necessary
to take into the project. Montrose
