WATER FAMINE AT COLFAX

The following dispatch published
in the Oregon Journal, at Portland,
tells of the serious conditions which
confront our sister city in the mat
ter Of water. Efforts to secure a
good supply Of water for COlfax
have been made for 20 years, and it
was thought the problem was soly-
led when a spring near Elberton was
bought several years ago and the
water piped to Colfax, a distance Of
ll3 miles. The story given to the
Journal shows that this has proven
a failure. Following is the Journals
story as published Wednesday;
COLFAX, Wash, Aug. 1S.--Col-
fax is face to face with another
water famine, and it appears as
though the 100000 invested in the
municipal water system five years
ago will be OF no avail, unless some
scheme can be devised to stop the
leaks in the 13 miles Of wooden pipe
carrying water from the Elberton
springs, the source Of supply. In
order TO conserve the slender sup
ply the council last Wednesday is
sued an order prohibiting all lawn
sprlnkling. Hundreds of beautiful
flowers are dying as a result.
There is an abundant supply Of
water at the springs, but the action
of the council in equipping the sys-
tenn with wooden, instead of steel
pipes is responsible for the present
plight.

The apples were of last years crop
and had been kept in Mr.. Breeze's eel
lar since last winter, and are as
fresh and plump and sweet favored
as if just taken from the trees. II
is doubted if there is another variety
of apples grown in the west that will
keep until August after they had been
harvested the previous year. No
special care had been taken Of these
apples. They had merely been in
boxes in the cellar tor about nine
months.

charge of the drawings allowed It to

get good claim. In the Flathead
drawing one man made affidavit that
he is nine feet six inches tall, pro-
ba2ly getting the figures reversed.

fhn craze for land Is something
wonderful Rev. D. V. Hamilton,
of Igracio, Colorado. is here and
tells of a similar experience in his
neiShborhood in July, when the
southern Ute reservation of l6,0OC
acres was thrown open to settle
ment. This was done by the state
of Colorado as the land is desert
land, covered with sage brush, and
must Oe irrigated before it is worth
anything. Mr.. Hamilton said that
thousands of persons came from all
parts Of the United States and from
foreign countries and the rush was
about equal to that at Coeur d'Alene
or Spokane, although a price of $45
per acre had to be paid for the water
right alone. and the land had to be
cleared and improved. Mr.. Hamil-
ton said: Some of the best i'm
proved farms, with water right,
fields in cultivation and fair buildings
could be bought for $40 to $50 per
acre, yet these people fairly went
wild over the drawing of the unim-
proved sage brush land for which
they had to pay $45 per acre for the
water right alone"
Judge Whitten, who had charge
Of the drawings at Occur d'Alene has
gone to North and South Dakota,
where 600 claims are to be thrown
open to settlement in a drawing
similar to that just closed at Occur
d'Alene. This Is expected to draw
large crowd, but Judge Whitten es-
Inmates that there will be much less
interest than in the Flathead, sDo-
kane or Coeur d'Alene reservations.
and that the chances of getting a
good claim are about one In three.
