TO DRAIN LANDS
THROUGH D |TCHES
Plan Outlined by Land Own.
ers Opposed to Forming
Of District.

Middleton, April 15.-With view to
preventing the organization of the pro-
posed drainage district In this section
and its consequent cost which they be-
lieve would be excessive, the settlers
of lands here opposed tb the district,
will at once proceed to drain their
lands by removing the dams from their
irrigation bitches, connect all sloughs
and carry the waste water from these
places to the creeks and river. At
least this Is the plan they announced
at the drainage district meeting held
here Thursday night. In the meeting
it developed that there was no little OPP
position to the proposed district, the
opposition coming very largely from
the owners of high lands. However
only 20 per cent of the vote cast is re-
quired for the formation of the district
and it is for the purpose Of circum-
venting this vote that the opposition
initiates immediate activity. The plan
of the opposition to the district has
made some considerable measure OF
favorable impression, and 1t may prove
TIE solution to the controversy.
