Oscar Gunderson of Chippewa Falls

of the American professional record
set last February at Ishpeming, by
August Nordby, of Superior, Wis. The
next annual meet was set for Chicago
in January, 1912.
The wind Sunday was not so strong
as Saturday, when a long list of anna
tours competed, nevertheless, with the
weather below freezing and the snow
on the hill hard and fast, many of the
skiers were unable to keep their bal
ance and were more or less jolted
when they fell. A crowd of 5000 per-
sons witnessed the contests. More

few skiers stood up i'm all the runs and
a dozen broke their skis. Two skiers

Barney Riley, of Coleraine, took first
by a narrow margin over Carlsberg of
St Paul. Barney put up a wonderful
exhibition of skiing and won because
he outjumped Hollberg, who displayed
the finest form. Barney jumped 116
and 101 feet and Holberg 100 and los.
In the long standing jump, which does
not count in the championship, Riley
jumped 112 and veered off the course,
while Solberg jumped los feet and
stood thereby winning. But Riley's
116 feet was the longest jump of the
afternoon.

First Contract lei;
 Blythe to Giamis

The contract was let last week for the first sixteen miles of railroad be- tween here and Glamis, and it is uh- derstood that work will begin at once. Bids for the next sixteen miles are now ill and the contract for this stretch will be let iii few days.
 This will take the railroad to the Pa4o Verde valley, but the recent hign water has necessitated some change in the first survey as it was found that high water might cause some trouble if the first survey were fol lowed As soon as the survey is com pleted the contracts for the remainder will be let as it is intended to con- plete the work as soon. as it is possi- ble
 After seeing the actual work in con struction and seeing the wonderful re- sources of that valley, it will surely cause any one to get busy.

Too Much Water
 At Tempe Bridge

Tempe, July 29-Things are moving slowly but surely at the bridge. Tne deeper the excavation goes on Pier No. 6, the more water is encountered and the, pumps yesterday were throw ing over a thousand gallons a minute from the inside cylinder. It is thought however that after the cylinder is suLk three or four feet more, much of the outside water will be cut off ld better. progress will be made. Two men are kept busy inside the cylindei' in water up to their waists while tue cylinder is pressed down by a weight of couple of tons of railroad iron and sacks of sand as fast as the gray el and boulders are removed from the inside.

The RanCnerS and Statehood

The Arizona Republican editorialty says:
 Do the rauchers of the Salt River valley and of the Yuma valley-the users of water under the Salt River and the Yuma projects-apprecia the extent to which their interests ale involved in the statehood question?
 All Arizona would profit greatly by the admission of the territory into the Union. The general advantages of stateEood-home rule, greater attrac- tions for settlers and investors, lower interest rates, and so on-are so well understood that it is no longer worth while to set them forth in detail
 But we do not believe there is a full understanding of the benefits %hich the agricultural interests of the territory should get as a result of statehood
 Under the terms Of the reclamation act of 1902, the users of water under each project are required to pay back to the government the total cost If constr lction, in ten annual payments
 The whole arid west has come to a realization of the fact that a mistake was made in fixing so short time for he repayment of the government. At the time the act was passed it was taken for granted by congress that the terms fixed were sufficiently lib I eral The same impression prevailed in the west.
 But every reclamation project t1s V hich we have any knowledge has cost CT will cost sum from two to three times larger than the original estimate.
 This increased cost must be paid by the water users within the time fixed by the existing law-ten years
 T he time has arrived for frank admission of the fact that a grievous mistake was made by congress in fix ing so short a time as ten years in yLich to recover from the water us- CTS under the various projects the i cost of constructing these projects |
 The Salt River valley is in better | shape than any other section for com pliance with the terms of this law. But the time is too short for this val ley, nevertheless
 The Yumo project, will, when com Dleted, prove so costly as to make it exceedingly burdeHsome for the water lsers to repay the cost in ten annual 
 Other projects in the west present similar to the Yuma pro- because the cost of cor has exceeded the estimates nder which the water users executed heir agreement to pay.

 1 1t ought to be thirty years.
 Hitherto, while the facts we have
 just stated were recognized, there has been, until recently, a disposition on the part of the public generally to postpone a discussion of the subject
 But it will be one of the live topics of discussion at this years national i irrigation congress. Undoubtedly the irrigation congress will start move ment for an amendment of the recla- nation act, extending the time in which repayments must be made to he government.
 It will not be easy, however, to pass through congress the necessary, amendment The middle states, the eastern states and southern states will not be interested in behalf of the arid west. The needed amendment can re secured only by good team work ,,n the part of the senators and represent atives from the mountain states and coast states.
 The prospects, for success would he greatly increased if western represen- tation at Washington could be rein forced by adding four Uni-ed States senators and two representatives from Arizona and New Mexico.
 It should be obvious to the ranchers Of the Salt river valley that it is vital ly to their interest to have Arizona admitted without further delav
 If the Democrats in congress take the advice of a few self-appointed spokesmen for Arizona on the state hood question, admission at this ses- sion will be defeated through a foolish il,sistence upon having the judiciary recall in the constitution.
 As compared with the value of i'm mediate statehood, the scontroverted recall provision becomes a matter of absolutely no importance.
 We can get along for a year or two without the judiciary recall. The Rn- publican believes, at least. that it will be possible for the peonle. by using er- ;raordinary care, to elect men to the bench who-will not be such crooks that the recall will be necessary.
 And, at any rate the recall can I,e lacked onto the constitution by an in due course. ' The west needs in congress tho cd- senators and representatives which the admission of Arizona end New Mexico would provide.
 The ranchers of the territory and '! the Democrats who are not blindel to questions of practical importance ought to hurry and make it plain to 'oneress that they want statehood now
