During the past few months the

George F. Crooks. for five years a

from the city near the School Section
precinct. Deceased was native OF
Canada but before coming here had

only to make conditions worse than
they had been before as the owners of
farms having received vested rights
to the use Of water have been persist
emily called upon by reason of fall
contempt of court proceedings against
those unlawfully diverting water from
the stream.
What Sears Have Shrown
Naturally personal enmities arose
out Of these conditions, and it has
taken twenty or thirty years Of the
conditions enumerated to demonstrate
to the people of this beautiful valley
that solution of their difficulties was
in union Of interests.
Now the people of the valley pro-
pose to proceed upon the most en-
lightened lines of irrigation practice.
This recognizes that in an irrigation
district there must be first of all reg
ulatfon and system and combination
of interests. To make these things
possible and also to develop the hith-
erto untouched water resources Of the
valley the farmers have organized and
legally incorporated a stock company
known as the Ahtanum Water Users
association, with a capital stock of ten
thousand shares. The total acreage
which will receive water from the
system of the company will not be
over eight thousand acres.
Authority in Trustees
The powers of the company are
verted in nine trustees who are NOM
mated in nine districts. The work
of organization was begun the first of
November when the stock subscrip-
ton canvass was begun. This has
resulted in the signing up of some
forty-five hundred acres of land by
contract. The success Of the enter
prise is therefore already assured and
additional subscriptions are coming
in each day.

that peace negotiations are not in a
condition which would invite the good

hand it seems likely that these ne

deadlock within a few days owing to
the uncompromising attitude of both
sides regarding the prospective form
of government. The conservative in
