Water Users association should be
secured and carefully considered in
order to ascertain existing conditions
from their point of view. The water
users are vitality interested in ali
legislation which may directly or in
directly affect the reclamation work,
and to them the committee will look
for a full and free expression of
their deliberate opinions on the eX-
listing law, the administration thereof,
and the suggestion of such amend
ments to the law as may be deemed
useful.
owing to the large number of
projects to be visited and the limited
time at the disposal of the committee,
it will not be possible to examine
or accord hearing to all members
of respective Water Users associa-
tions, but at the same time it is
very desirable that the judgment of
all, as expressed through the majority,
should be ascertained.
For the purpose of economiZing
time in securing the desired express
sions, l respectfully request that the
water users be assembled in a public
meeting or a series of meetings 70
discuss such matters as they desire
TO present to the committee, and that
their views be formulated in a con-
else statement in writing, the same
10 be presented by a committee of
their members who will be prepared
to answer such questions as the
senate committee may think proper
to ask i'm regard to the written state
ments or any other matter relating
to your project.
"As indicating questions deemed
important. but not seeking to limit
the range of information you may
think proper to present. I submit the
following interrogatories:
First-Is the .existing reclamation
law satisfactory, and if not, in what
respect should it be amended?
Second-Are the local laws govern
ing the appropriation and use of
water for irrigation satisfactory in
their application TO lands being re-
claimed by the government or through
private enterprise. and if not, what
amendments are required?
Thirds the administration of the
law by the reclamation service salts
factory, and if not, what are the
Arizona republican., 1909-09-20

objections and what remedy is pro-
posed?
Fourth-Is your water supply ade-
quate both for irrigation and domestic
uses?
Fifth-Where your towns have been
laid out by. the reclamation service,
how do you provide for the improve
ment of streets adjacent to lots owned
by the government, and how do you
provide a municipal water supply?
Sixth-Is your canal and distribute
ing system satisfactory, and if not,
what are the defects, what caused
them, and what remedy is proposed?
Seventh-Can the cost of maintain
ing and operating the canal and dis
tributing system be reduced, and if
so, in what way and to what extent?
Eighth-Can the water users by
employing reasonable industry and
economy promptly make all payments
required by the existing law?
Ninth-What additional terms and
conditions, if any. should be imposed
on those who default in payment?
Tenth-What are your principal
crops. where do you market them.

Murdered Clerks SHORTAGE.

Colorado Springs.-The shortage of
Charles p. Essick, the aged Woodmen
clerk, murdered December 20 last. will
probably aggregate $4,000, instead of
5000, as was first thought The Wood
men auditing committee has discov-
cred the shortage for 1908 alone to be
about $500. and further investigation
may run the figures up. The camp
will try to show that the errors were
intentional, and that Essick was TO
blame for the shortage, so that it may
recover from the bonding company
which was the aged clerks security.

FORMER COLORADO STATE
TREASURER AND AUDITOR AL.
MOST ASPHYxIATED.
is LIKELY TO RECOVER
FAMILY DlScREDIT POLICE THE
DRY THAT HE ATTEMPTED
SUICIDE.

Denver.-Near death from aspkvxia-
ton, jain A. Holmberg, aged fifty. for
mer state treasurer and state auditor,
was found in the basement of his home
at 1928 Washington street, Wednesday
afternoon by his wife and daughter.
Mr.. Holmberg was removed to St.
Luke's hospital in the police ambu-
lance and it was reported from the hos
pital Wednesday night that he will re-
cover The windows of the wash room
where Holmberg was found were
closed and the cap from an inch gas
pipe which had formerly fed a gas
stove, on which Holmberg was lying
had been removed. The family deny
that Mr.. Holmberg attempted suicide.
Mrs. Holmberg and her daughter,
Esther, returned home in the afternoon
about two O'Clock, to find the house
filled with gas. Hurrying to the cellar
they found Mr.. Holmberg unconscious,
lying in the washroom across the stove
as though he had fallen. They ran from
the house and neighbors were sum
moned who carried Mr.. Holmberg out
on the lawn and called the police sur
geon.
Mrs. Holmberg and many friends
of the family refuse absolutely
to believe the police theory that
Mr.. Holmberg attempted suicide,
but assert that he was over
come while attempting to repair the
stove connections. That he left no
note or message but had appeared hap
Ply and even gay lately would support
their statements. 1t is said Mr.. Holm
berg lately invested in a mine near
Empire, Colorado, and that he lost
heavily. This is the only motive cited
by tn believers of the suicide theory
Mr.. Holmberg began his career
number of years ago in Denver as a
meat inspector. He served as state
auditor under the Peabody administra-
ton and as state treasurer under Gov
ernor Jesse Mcdonald. Lately he has
been employed in the county assessors
office. Holmberg was always known
as staunch Wolcott Republican. He
is u well known Colorado politician
and YIELDS great influence among the
Swedish voters of the state.
Mr.. Holmberg was a candidate for
governor in 1906, but opponents in
the party proved too strong for him.
