After getting through the fight ON
wells for replenishing canals, the
Water Users Protective Association
at its meeting at the court house yes
terday afternoon for the consideration
of the proposed new aI1tesian well law,
took up the question of bonding drill
lers and fixing their responsibilities.
This proved to ibe a harder question
than the one that brought on an argu-
ment in the morning. The drillers
were there in force and they and their
friends were opposed to the section,
basing their claims ON the fact that
an artesian we'll is liable to ''go wrong
at any time, even when it is almost
new, and the driller would not be at
fault in the least. The section, No
8, was finally adopted by the close
vote of 35 to 81. The bond of drill
lers was fixed at $4,000 and the time
in which the bond shall hold after the
completion of the we'll was fixed at
ninety days. Otherwise the section
was adopted as read.
Section No. 8. on the character of
casing, was re-drafted and adopted as
follows: "All wells of every descrip-
tion and for every purpose that shall
be put down to ali artesian flow of wa
ter, shall be- cased with standard line
or drive pipe of the following weights
and dimensions:
'6 inch pipe to be not less than 1s
lbs to the foot.
'S inch pipe to be not less than 2o
pounds to the foot. -
10 inch pipe, where used for the
main casing, to be not less than 40
pounds to the foot"
Section No. IU. was adopted as read
after which it was re-considered and a
committee appointed to draft substi-
tute for it and report Thursday morn
ing. The committee, w. G. Hamilton,
J. B. Cecil. ]. r. Stanley, J. H. Nook,
e. J. Lukens, D C. Douglass and w.
e. Bowen This section covers the
depth to which casing must be sunk.
Section No. IL, providing for log
and complete history of the wel, was
amended to read as follows. THE con
tractor. to drill any artesian well or
any we'll orifce put down to the arte-
sian we'll flow, shall keep a complete
record of the depth and thickness Of
the different strata penetrated, togeth-
er with the date when the work was
begun, when the work was finished

shall verify under oath, and when the

tesian well supervisor, prior to the az
ceptance of the we'll by the supervisor.
The artesian well supervisor is here
by commissioned and qualified to ac-
cept and take any acknowledgment
pertaining to the taking of acknowl
edgenaent under this act, and he shall
take the same free of charge"

Section Is was amended to limit the
salary of the artesian well supervisor
to $1,000 per annum, over and above
from expenses. II fixes the duties of
the supervisor.
Section No. IA was adopted as read
except that it was amended to allow
county treasurer the same per cent.
for the collection of taxes on antesian
wells as he receives on other taxes.
This section provides for the payment
of a tax of SIS per year for expense OF
inspection.

cry year, and Section No. 16, making
it the duty of city and county officers
to assist in the prosecution of persons

out change.

To this section, as originally drawn, is

Law of 1905 relating the law of pri-
ority of rights in the appropriation of
water, and providing for the stopping
of drilling new wells when it has been
shown that the limit has been reached
in the demand that is being anade on
any known aI7teSian basin. A move
was made to strike out the last part
of THE section, referring to the stop
ping of drilling new wells what tine
supply of water seemed to be deter
mined. Quite a spirited discussion
followed and an effort was made to
put off action on this question until
the next day. This move lost by a
close vote and the last part of the
section was finally stricken out, 81

STATEHOOD
IN SENATE

Washington, D. c., Feb. IA poll
of 5Oth branches of congress made In
behalf of former Congressman Hearst
whose chain of newspapers has rem
dered valuable service i'm behalf of
the territories, shows am almost undi-
vided sentiment in favor of immediate
statehood for the territories of New
Mexico and Arizona.
OF the 80 senators, 81 express them
selves as deSirouS of voting for the
separate statehood bill. Three are
against, seven are non-committal and
i'm the poll being made during the end
of the week, fifteen members were
found absent from their seats and com
mittee rooms.
In the house, out of 3SS members,
249 are on record as favoUing the ad-
mission OF both.
The small number of four are con-
fessedly against admission; Al are non
committa1 and "a members could not
be seen.
Thus two new stars would be add
ed to the flag of this nation before
March 8, were Senators Beveridge
and Aldrich converted. These two
men and these almost alone, leaders
as they are, stand in the way OF I'M
mediate statehood for the territories.
On Monday the 18th, the house of
will pass the bill. Rep
resentative Hamilton, chairman of the
committee OF territories, said tonight; !;
Speaker Cannon will interpose no OBJ
lection. Neither will his aides. The
bill will go through the house under
a suspension of the rules and with en-
thusiaSm."
But when 1t reaches the senate ac-
coa,ding to Senator Beveridge, it will
have opposition To be passed the bill
must go on the calendar without dis
sent Therefore, to throttle it either
Beveridge or Aldrich will object.
President Roosevelt and President
elect Taft are anxious ito have the
measure succeed at this congress
The president has brought great inf1u
ence to bear upon members of bOtt
branches, but without absolute sue
cess.
Senator Beveridge says that neither
of the territories is qualified for state
hood. In this he is disputed by facts
and all precedents governing admis
sion. The requirement OF four more
senators taken from population 81
Heterogeneous as that Of the territories
he thinks would be disastrous. Before

Legislation for Knox.
Washington, Feb. 11.-Senator Knox
is declared by the senate committee
on Judiciary to be eligible for appoint

the salary of Secretary of State be
reduced from $4,000 to $4,000, which
was the salary prior to the action rails
ing it during Senator Knox present
term of Office.
A bill was introduced yesterday by
Senator Hale, repeating THE increase
in salaries of cabinet officers, SO far
as it referred to Secretary of State.
This WAS changed so that the language
would haImonize with THE conStftutiO on
and will lbe reported back to the SEN
ate. Senators Kittredge and Overu1ian
expressed doubt of the propriety OF
taking the proposed action, but it is
not believed they will present a min
ority report or oppose the measure on
the floor of the senate.
