CLARK OPTIMISTIC
 0A DUR FUTURE

Former Senator W. A. Clark, mul- ti-millionaire, copper miner and presi- dent of the Salt Lake railroad, is op- timistic regarding the commercial fu- ture of the United States. In an in- terview given at Los Angeles he stated as his firm conviction that the trade we win of South America and the Scandinavian countries through the war will be held.
 South America" he said, "and Spain, which is another coming buyer, have always wanted credit. London has given it to them, but has always charged a good round interest They will learn through this war that they can buy cheaper here, instead of de- pending on London for goods often made here, and will continue to buy of us after this war is over. I believe that this country is entering on an era of unprecedented prosperity"

Davis to the supervisiong engineer and project managers and shou-G nave been Sub- mitted to tho water users, but was not; but for what reason is not known. And it was in this position as covered by Secretary Lane referring to the board of cost review plan, when Secre- tary Lane delegated w. A. Ryan, comp troller and member of the Reclamation commission, to advise the unit holders upon the reservation that their peti- tion had been received and that this was a matter which should properly be brought before their board of cost review and this is one of the matters locally for consideration.
 There are other and equally imnort- ant matters to come before the board of cost review.
 In a recent letter, MT. Ryan said this to MT. Teasdale:
 q am certain that you can pin your faith and stake your all on the findings of your board of cost review" and MT. Davis said in a letter at about the same time: Tt is gratifying to the commission that we note in connec- tion with the correspondence of your project affairs, that you show much constructive thought, and we are ex- pecting helpful and beneficial recon mendations from your local board"
 With such expressions from these high officials, as we'll as from Secre- tary Lane, the unit holders of Bard have every reason to feel hopeful.
 But harmony should be and must be the watchword. With that mott, - ways ir 1iioW, tho vexing questions will soon be settled and settled in man. ner fair and just to all concerned; and, while this is directly applicable to the Bard unit, yet it must necessar- fly follow that the same argument ap- plies with equal force to the entire Yuma project.
Arizona sentinel Yuma southwest., 1915-06-24

The initial meeting of the advisory committe or the uni holders and water users oi the Bard unit of the Yuma project was held on Monday night, as per schedule, in the water users office at the ex- perimental station. Everett P. Teasdale, called the meet ing to order.
 It had been the intention of the committee, following the usual procedure, that in view of his position as chairman ot the school house mass meet ing and handling all the af- fans o1 the unit holders of Bard, that Charles w. John son would become chairman of the advisory committee. However, he was unavoidably detained, sending word to his fellow members that he would arrive later in the evening, ii possible. In the absence of Secretary Riggs, the duties ot that office was discharged by Arnett Pauley.
 The purpose of the meeting was two-fold: First, to or ganize systematically for the work in hand, and, second, to lay out the work, using as a basis the statement of book costs to be furnished by local project authorities, District Counsel E. E. RoddiS having been notified that the book costs would be ready June 20, 1915.
 A formal request was off cially made for this report on Monday, June 2l, by the wa fer userS' member of the board of costs review, Everett P. Teasdale, as he had been instructed to do at the meet ing held in the Bard school house last Saturday night, June l9.
 The itemized statement of book costs, however, was not furnished by the local project authorities and, therefore, the advisory committee did not have the necessary facts upon which to begin their work.

WATER USERS COMMITTEE MEET
 AT THE BARD EXPERIMENT STATION PROPOSE TO TAKE ACTION ON PROJECT COSTS AND FORMULATE PLANS FOR FUTURE DELI CREATIONS; HISTORICAL DATA; YUMA PRO- JECT OFFICIALS HAVE FAILED TO FURNISH COSTS STATEMENT, AS PER THEIR INSTRUC- TIONS FROM SECRETARY F. K. LANE.

The affairs of the project as the. affect the reservation unit were dis cussed quite freely and considerabl, important information in the form O data, was gathered by the committee each member of which has been ol the reservation unit from the time tht land was opened to settlers in March 1910, and all of them are intimatel! familiar with the supplemental work which appears in the form of the recla nation record, as additional charges which it had been proposed to asses: against the land in addition to tht $55.00 basis of payment which the rec lamation service announced throual tho Secretary of the Interior, R. A BaIlinger, as being $55.OO per acre fol completed reservation unit of the project.
 It was because of the initial public notice, known in the department as Sheet that the lands were opened to public settlement and entered under an amended homestead entry provid ing for the sale of these lands to the entrymen and water-right applicants under the following provisions:
 Sec. 6. The charges which shall be made per acre of irrigable land in said entries are in three parts, as fol lows:
 "A The value of the lands before reclamation, $1O per acre for the total area in each entry, as acquired by Sec 25 of said Act of April 21, 1904, payable in not more than 10 annual install ments, the first of which shall be $1.0O per acre, and the remaining install ments at the rate of $1.00 per acre, per annum until fully paid for.
 "B. The building of the irrigating system, $55.00 per acre of irrigable land payable in not more than ten annual installments, the first of which shall be $5.50 per acre and the remain ing installments at the rate of $5.5O or some multiple thereof per acre Full payment may be made at any time of any balance of the building charges remaining due after the certification by the commissioner of the General Land Office that full and satisfactory compliance has been shown with all requirements of the law as to resi- dence, cultivation and reclamation.
 "C. For operation and maintenance for the irrigating season of 1910, and annually thereafter, until further no tice, S1O0 per acre of irrigable land whether water is used thereon or not AS soon as the data is available, the operation and maintenance charge will be fixed in proportion to the amount of water used with a minimum charge per acre of irrigable land, whether water is thereon or not"
