BIG TEST FOR
RECLAMATION
First Payments on Reclamation
Projects Now Due and Returns
VIII Indicate financial Success
of the Work.

WASHINGTON, d. G., May q
The acid test of the practicability of
all the government reclamation work
is at hand. On April 1 there was due
and payable into the reclamation fund
from the settlers on the various pro-
jects approximately $1,000,000 for
water rights. If the farmers are
able to meet their payments, it evil
dences that the government is able
to secure return on it's investment.
If the payments are not made, the
law is a failure IN one OF its most i'm
portant provisions and the operations
of the reclamation service would
quickly be brought to an end.
settlers Prosperous.
But a careful canvass of the pro-
jects on which water rights charges
are due indicates that the settlers
as q rule are able and willing to
meet them.
On the big North Platte project in
Wyoming and Nebraska there We're
335 farms with charges due on April

The payment of their Indebtedness
by those farmers will probably be the
most important Single event in the
history of national irrigation. There
never has been any doubt as to the
competency of the engineers to con-

been expressed as to whether the
government could get its money back.

There have been failures as it was
inevitable there should be. but the

numerous instances those who under

of retail lumber dealers of Mississippi

they had violated the antitrust acts

Justice Lurton confined himself to
the question of whether the statute

He said when plaintiffs in error

1t will stand the Indians in good

who has charge of the work of indian
census enumeration in this state, was
iii North Yakima Monday on his way
to Spokane. He says he has had con-
siderable trouble in securing Indians
enumeratoIs as there is not as yet Il
complete understanding of the 'ob-
iectS aimed at by the government in
taking the count. The work is pro-
crossing, nevertheless and Mr.. Sand
meyer has every reason to believe, he
says, that the count will be the most
complete ever taken of the Indian
tribes of this section. He has been
working between Bellingham and the
coast.
Everywhere that he has gone Mr.
Sandmeyer has found the respective
cities through which he has passed
boosting to their utmost the work of
enumeration and he is of the opln-
ion that here there should be more
noise and more alertncss to the priv
ilege opened up in offering to the
city the opportunity to show to the
world her size and her growth. Port
land Seattle, Tacoma, Aberdeen are
spending thousands of dollars in see
ing that no one escapes.
In North Yakima there are many
people leaving the city, on brief trips
who have not been recorded and who
will be away so long that the count
will be over before their return. The
responsibility, according to the belief
and practice of other cities, is on all
citizens for an absolute count and
all should turn in data to the census
headquarters at the Com mercial club.
