early date as the result of meeting
held last night in Palisade by the
executive committee of the Mesa
County Irrigation District Protective
League. This meeting will be for
the purpose of considering the prop
osition of permitting the Grand VAL

way along the canals of these dis
tricts. thus do away with the destruc-
tion of orchard lands in the upper
Palisade district through which the
High Live right-of-way would have

Under the new arrangement the land
owners under the two old irrigation
districts would be provided water by
the High Line at a reasonable rate
and the government would take over
the pumping plants, etc, of the dis
triets at fair price. The mass meet
ing will have an important bearing on
the High Line canal project.
