SOLUTION BELIEVED FOUND FOH
LOST RIVER IRRIGATION
PROJECT

Big Lost river irrigation project is
at last on the high road to SUCCESS
after it's many tribulations. Every
indication now points to the upbuild-
ing here of the finest irrigation sys-
tenn in the state, with at least 1907
600 acres of the finest farming land
and water supply certain and ade-
quate for all purposes, says the
Statesman.
At informal conferences in the of.
flee of Governor Haines on Saturday
the skies were wonderfully cleared
and at the close of the meetings all
directly interested expressed them.
selves highly pleased with the situa-
ton.
Present at the conference were w.
H. Watts, president of the Utah Con-
struction company of Salt Lake:
James E. Clinton, the former receiver
for the Big Lost River Irrigation
company; State Engineer King, Gov
ernor Haines, Attorney General Pet
erson, Secretary of State Clifford, w.
F. Rathburn, one of the active set
tiers on the, project, and Frank C.
Horn, a consulting engineer.
President Watts announced that
his company was prepared to start
work just as soon as the flow of the
river would permit and to push work
with big force of men and the best
equipment to be had In the west, All
he asks is that he be given the sup
port and cooperation Of the state and
the settlers on the project.
One thing that President Watts
will demand is certain notifications
in the old contract. This contract
was carelessly drawn. 1t is ambigu-
GUS as to the amount Of water the
settlers are to get and in other i'm
portant particulars. President Watts
says his company is ready to enter
into a sufficient bond to complete the
works and to furnish the settlers all
the water they need, but he thinks
the amount Of water should be deter
mined by scientific investigation by
experts.

SOME OFFICIAL GRAFT

There is now another in the long
series of scandals regarding the abuse
Of the Thanking privilege. Promot-
ers of a gold mine of not very edify-
ing reputation have been using the
stationary of United States senator's
and thus sending out large quantity
Of advertising matter without any
expense for postage. Eventually,
public sentiment will become SO We
hement against these outrages that
the franking system will be abolish
ed. Government officers will nav
their postage like other people and
their salaries will be adjusted &C.
cordingly. Free postage is no more
necessary to federal than to a state
officer. The postoffice department
would not have to report so many
deficits if it received pay for all the
mail 1t handles Doubtless we could
have one-cent letter postage If there
were no dead-heads.

always been fraught with instability,
chaos and disaster to the industrial
life of our people, while it's ascend
