Flood Harnessed by Boysen

The Sunday issue of the Omaha
Bee contains an illustrative page
description of the work of Hon.
Asmus Boysen in building an i'm
mense dam to conserve the waters
of the Big Horn river in Wyoming
and thereby furnish electric power to
drive machinery to open up the
mines in that section. Mr.. Boysen
discovered the opportunity ten years
ago and secured valuable leases
from the Indians to 17S,000 acres of
land. When the government desir-
ed to open the land to settlement,
negotiations were opened with Mr..
Boysen and on March 3, 1905, he
exchanged his claim on these Indian
on which the famous Big Horn gorge
is situated, his title being furnished
by an act of Congress. With the i'm
mense power furnished by his big
dam, Mr.. Boysen will continue the
development of the valuable mines
on his holding Besides furnishing
power, the dam enables Mr.. Boysen
to furnish water to irrigate 10000
acres. The dam is $50 feet high but
looks small because the cliffs at the
side rise to 900 feet. The backing
up of the water forms lake be-
tween the mountains IA miles long
and miles wide. The Big Horn
Power Company which has built the
dam is capitalized at 100000, but
Mr.. Boysen, assisted by few friends
has paid all the expense and will
have full control of the property.

At our last Normal Institute there was inaugu-
rated Round Table" where school questions are
discussed where the past reviewed and the future
contemplated. The following plan, submitted to
school officers and patrons CHANGED to meet, has
been received with strong approval: That officers
patrons and anyone interested in the welfare of the
schools call write us before Institute
giving suggestions along school lines especi
ally suggesting in what they believe to be the needs
of their particular district While probably could
not follow, to the letter. all suggestions this plan
would, at least, be the of furnishing vau-
able information of local conditions, information that
otherwise could not be obtained. Reasons for the
above plan obvious In our visitation of schools
meet teachers and pupils only. 1t is that
meet of the patrons Of the districts hardly
have time to stop to visit with old time friends and
get meal off of them" While it is both peasurable
and profitable to meet with teachers and pupils we
believe it would be for the interest of the schools for
us to be able to into closer relations with the
patrons Let us hear from patrons in every district
These communications are expected to come from peo
pie who really interested in the schools. They
are not expected to degenerate into neighborhood
