generally the work which has been done
has been well lone and many important
engineering problems have been met and
solved.
One of the difficulties which has arisen
is that too many projects in view OF tho
available funds have been set on foot. The
funds available under the reclamation
statute are inadequate to complete these
projects, within a reasonable time. And
yet the projects have been begun; settlers
have been invited to take up and, in many
instances, have taken ND, the public land

RIGHT OF WAY FOR BUCKEYE RAILWAY
Announcements That 1t Has All Been Secured Except the Privilege or Using Buchanan Street for

The Buckeye Railroad company was until last night when il ran into q snag.

 The reason for desiring haste in the matter on the part of the railroad com pan is that it has only limited time in which 10 perform the construction work of its proposed line in order tu secure the benefit pf the bonus and rights of way offered and that time is getting irrtatinsly short.

ENGLAND MAY
HAVE ANOTHER
ELECTION SOON

LONDON, Dec. ia short ses-
sion Of parliament, ending for the
call Of another election, is the pre-
diction Of the leaders Of both the
conservative and the liberal parties
as a result of the last days voting to-
morrow, The voting will end this
week.
When the results from the last
constituency which 1t Is believed will
not materially affect the results, are
in, 1t Is expected that the leaders of
both parties will find themselves in
an awkward predicament. The
trouble is that the election has not
been decisive. The skillful intro
duction of questions foreign to the
main issue has confused the voters
and personal influences have so af-
fected the result that neither party
has scored a decisive victory.
With such a result, It is regarded
as certain that King George will
not create sufficient number OF
liberal peers to give that party con-
troll OF both houses OF parliament
and thereby make the lords a re.
Election OF what the liberal leaders
believe is the expression OF the will
Of the people. The liberals will re.
sort to the obstructive tactics oI
former sessions and Il will be only q
question Of q short time before the
government faces the same condi
tions that resulted in the proroguing
