GOVERNING PROJECT LANDS
Rules By Which Transfers of
Entries Within Projects May
Be Made By Settlers.

There is a difference between a
transfer of land on the one hand and
an assignment of an entry under the
act of June 23, 1910, (36 Stat, 592)
on the other. A transfer of land
may be made (a) after patent has
issued or OBJ after final proof ON ap-
plication for patent but before issue
of patent. In neither of these cases
is there an assignment. In both the
transfer is by deed between the par
ties.
any sort of paper to be filed with the
Project Manager or other officer,
either on the transfer of land after
patent or after final proof and be-
fore patent, whether the application
for patent be under Act of August
8, 1912, or otherwise; neither is
there any such requirement on
transfer of land in private owner
ship after proof of application for
final water-right certificate. Man
ual amendment p. 45S.9 states the
correct procedure to the effect that
paragraphs 32 to 81 General Recla-
nation Circular have no application
to such cases. Paragraph SO, p. Al
General Reclamation Circular also
has no application to the case of a
transfer after final proof ON applica-
ton for final water-right certificate.
whether made under the Act of Au-
gust 8. 1912, or General Reclama-
ton Act.
Entries upon which final proof has
been submitted on application for
patent, and lands in private owner
ship upon which final proof has
been submitted on application for
final water-right certificates are, for
all practical purposes, to be treated
and handled, in regard to notice of
transfers, the same as private lands
upon which final water right certifi-
cate has issued on payment in full of
all charges.
In cases of transfers of lands, in
order to insure the purchasers re-
ceiving notice of charges due or of
poceedings taken for failure to pay
or notice of any other matter in con-
nection with the water-right appurt-
enant to the lands purchased, such
purchaser should at once notify the
project Office of his purchase with
description of the land purchased,
the name of his grantor and the
date, volume and page of the coun-
ty record where the deed or contract
is recorded. The vendor may like
wise notify the project Office of any
transfer by him. Upon receipt of
either such notice the project mana
ger will verify the same so far as
possible by the county records and
make appropriate notation upon his
records and adjustment of the ac-
count and notify this Office.

CONSOLIDATED SCHOOL PLAN
Government Official Here This
Week Who Advocates a Com
munity Center For Project.

&c. Muerman, of the govern
ment bureau of education. visited
Fallon Monday and yesterday lie
came here at the instance of his
chief, p. p. Claxton, educational
commissioner at Washington, VINO
has lately been interested through
the agency of c. ]. Blanchard. recla-
nation service statistician In the
plan of establishing a model rural
school. Mr.. Blanchard's plar. which
has found favor with other depart
mental authorities, Is to take the OPP
portunity presented at the present
time when re-maping and rc-plat-
ting of the project lands for further
settlement are in course, to have 40
acres OF fertile land set aside in the
center OF the most populous district
of the project, upon which may be
built community center which
would include primarily a model
school plant where every education
al 1hCilitg huo"h " q puhiit Nhpoi
may be included among the advant-
ages offered.
The government educational bu-
reau's interest in this instance can
not go beyond the advisory stage.
The cooperation of the reclamation
department has been secured and
now 1t is desired that the citizens of
the territory south of town, COM
prising districts two. three, five,
eight and ten, shall cooperate with
a view to serving their territory
from central school. DR.. Bax-
toms ideas include the setting aside
OF 40 acres of land. which shall have
a water right. and where beside
building a model school plant, agri-
cultural experiments may be carried
out The charge for water would
be about $1,000 in all, which would
be met by the property owners OF
the territory served. He would
erect a suitable home for the princi-
pal who would be hired by the IL
months. DR.. Paxton suggests that
q teacher. after satisfactory trial,
should be hired for life on good be-
hayior. The attention of the water
users Is called to the fact that unless
all project water right owners would
consent TO free use OF water for
school farm the water would have to
be paid for.
The United States bureau of edu-
cation only works through the school
authorities OF each state. The en-
dorsement of the superintendent OF
state public instruction has been So
lIcited for the plan here and VIII
probably be forthcoming. II Is pos
sible that state aid for the undertak-
Ing may be enlisted. Subsidy for
schools embodying the features out
lined should be granted over ana
above that enjoyed by schools pre-
senting lesser advantages.
The advantages OF consolidated
schools are. Mr.. Muerman stated,

good your prediction promises or
expect to be removed by those to
whom you have been faithless.
With this warning to public serv-
ants, the angered constituents of
State Senator James c.. Owens and
former mayor of this city, have in
stituted a recall against nina con-;
spicuous example of broken cam
paign pledges to labor
1t is the first time in the United
States that this has been made the
specific ground for exercise of the
peoples new political weapon.
The special election, which Owens
tried desperately to stave off, but in
which he was overruled by the State
Supreme Court, is set for March 81.
Against him will run ]. ]: Mazza. Pro-
gressive, and R. Leonhart, Socialist.
During the campaign Owens was
glib with promises Of what labor
might expect of him. Not only did he
subscribe to the labor planks in the |
Democratic platform, but he supple
mented this by personal pledges made
in writing to the State Federation of |
Labor.
When it came to performance,
however, the senator from Richmond |
voted against nine measures spon-
sored by the states toilers, and was
not recorded as voting on the other
10 out of total of 10.
He opposed workmen's compensa-
ton, anti-injunction, removal of
property qualification for jury serv-
ice, conservation, picketing during
strikes, state mine inspector, cement
workers protection, and did not vote
on the women's eight-hour bill

Alarmed over the promise of
speedy retribution for his faithless-
ness through the recall, Senator

In advocating the proposed amend ment to the state constitution permit ting school districts to vote a maxi mum local school tax of twelve mills, State Superintendent George B. Cook says:
 This amendment does not increase taxes. It merely gives the voters more constitutional liberty. It affords the voters in school districts, where in creased funds are needed to build a new school house or take up a deficit, the opportunity of voting a tax suffi- cient to put their local school on a business, cash basis

Agents Certificates Taxable.

State Auditor CoFman has ruled that all insurance agents certificates of authority are subject to the special U. $. Revenue tax. This ruling is based upon that section of the law which reads; Certificates issued by state officers authorizing companies or their agents to do business in the state or vesting private persons with author ity to transact business of a private nature not under state or municipal control are subject to the tax"
 There are about 21,000 insurance agents licenses issued here annually. the bulk of them on March l, costing S2 each, and an additional government tax of 10 cents each is now required. Companies remitting for licenses are requested to include 10 cents each for the war tax.
