attend, but all the rural voters with
whom we so far have spoken seem to
De against the move, thinking that
tns time Is not ripe for such a move,
that 1t would increase our taxes with
out giving US any compromising ad-
vantages. All seem to think the

this could be better used to promote
and develop the country as 1t now is
such as providing an ample and sure
supply of winter water either by the
canal system of by means of COM

nay and at the same time building nm
our soils. A dependable water sun-
ply and better markets are, we feel.
more necessary to the advertiser o
and development of our country than
the foisting OF any more expense on
us. We have haan ,oo1,,- -.
