De admitted to the government pro-
ject were made yesterday by Attor-
ney Straud NJ. Logan in accordance
with the suggestions OF Engineer A.
+. Davis last week. They were
handed 10 Engineer Miner last eve
ming and the office force Is busy to-
day preparing copies and recommen-
dattons to be sent to the Denver de-
partment, also to the secretary OF
the interior at Washington
Mr.. Miner thought that the matter
would be placed in shape where there
will be no difficulty in satisfactory
arrangements to include the two sys-
tens under the government control
and this Will pave the way for the
Orchard Mesa people If they can get
their matters in shape to come In
under the big system.
II has been case where the land
owners have been lax in looking af-
ter their affairs and trusting too
much to the belief that the goyern-
ment would in the end be compelled
TO have the water used in raising wa
ter for their systems. The engineers
were easily able to solve the problem
and 1t has not been more than three
weeks since the land owners realized
that they were going to be left out
unless they went right to work.
AS the plans develop more and
more it is apparent that the reclama-
ton service intends to give the lands
under the projects complete sys-
tenn. not only providing water for ir-
rigation but providing for the waste
water or rather not allowing waste
water at all. History reveals the
fact that all successful irrigation sys-
tams provide for drainage equally
with the placing of water on land. but
Systems built by private capital or
under the district laws plan only for
placing the water on the land. which
Is only one end of the scheme.
1t is expected that the papers will
be ready this evening for forwarding
to the east and also that there will
be no delay in having orders assured
to provide for the additional capacity
of the tunnel now under process OF
construction.
Fifteen years ago there was 4
constant wall in the lover valley over
the shortage of water under the
Grand Valley canal. There was no
thought of conserving the water. but
each man Insisted that he get all the
water he paid for and get It all the
time. and history has shown that q
large part OF it has gone into the
ground and has formed q lake under
the lands and before such lands are
suitable for cultivation 4 system of
drainage must be adopted. The state
laws provide the way to do this and
the government is maki-g eIhau3tive
efforts to assist IN the work. 1t viii
