Black Canyon Prospects
Are Locking Brighter.
Middleton Herald J

Conditions looking to the advance
ment of the reclamation work on tie
Black Canyon lands adjacent to Middle
ton continue to brighten. 1t was thought
for while that the survey work had
been discontinued, but since the i'm
provement Of weather conditions the
forces have. gone to work again and are
pushing the survey ahead.
Now comes the news in letter from
Senator Borah to the Reclamation Asso-
cietion OF Middleton that despite the
perilous times at Washington, there
were hopes that as the appropriations
come along during the next sixty days
something can be done for this project.
Representative MeCracken also writes
that he has introduced a bill, asking for
an appropriation for funds sufficie, to
go on with the surveys and to complete
them for the whole Black Canyon pro-
ject. He has hopes of that fund being
furnished without difficulty That
would mean that all the preliminary

work would have been done when the
funds for actual construction were made
available. So that even now lot OF
work is being done that would have to
be done even II the whole amount OF
funds were ready for the entire project.
Attorney Thompson is in Washington,
working for the project and from infor-
nation written by Senator Borah we are
led to believe that the effort being made
at this time to have the Black Canyon
project Incorporated as part of the re-
clamation project will succeed. This
would be the most forward step that
could be taken at this time.

President Wilson carried Washington.
Hughes may get one of the seven cleo
toral votes of the State. The death of
A. Stream, a Democratic elector,
shortly before election and the sub
stitution of L. M. Connor as elector
came so late that in many counties
the name of Stream rather than Con-
nor appeared on the ballot.
It is said that many voted for
Stream and that these votes will be in
valid The difference, according to
local Republicans will be sufficient to
give one Republican elector plur-
