no settler on the tract would sub

Mr.. Sims suggested that it might be
well to have a commission selected to
determine the water supply. The
commission was to be selected, one
member by us and one by them, and
these two were to select a third, if
necessary. 1 concurred in the sugges-

putting the distribution of water into
the hands of the settlers; not giving
them control of the canal company
board, but rather by electing three of
their members to that board and max
ing ii an executive committee for the
purpose of looking after the distribu
ton of the water. There was some
question as to whether they would ac
cept this proposal, but after they dis
cussed the matter amongst themselves
that afternoon, they made up their
minds that it would be a wise thing
for both to endeavor to carry out. So
we left that phase of the situation with
the understanding that l would recon-
mend it and do what l could to get the
bondholders committee to carry it out.
Then they suggested that we make a
proposal to them, which we said we
would do on Monday Saturday after
noon we went to HOLSTER and met a
few people there and talked with them
about conditions, and on Monday we
met again with these gentlemen. We
again told them that the amount of
money they had suggested was impos-
sible to obtain, but we might be able
to obtain a smaller amount 1t seemed
to us that $180,00000 would be quite
adequate, and more than adequate to
buy $4,000 acres of land, and that by
so doing the tract would be reduced to
$4,000 acres, for which we thought
from the information we had, meaning
the letter from the commissioner of the
general land office referred to, and the
state engineers report and the report Of
the officials of the Canal company,
there was an adequate supply of wa
ter, and that in view of the losses
which both of US might sustain if we
didn't come to a settlement, the water
right, under such condition, should be
worth $4,000 an acre. We said that we
would recommend that the bondholders
supply the canal company treasury
with S1S0,000.00 to be used as sug-
gested, provided they would accept a
reduction to $4,000 acres instead Of
80 900, and pay $500 for the water
right per acre, instead of $4,000; that
we would then complete the system
(Which, am satisfied is already COM
pleted, in so far as the requirements
of the state engineers last report are
concerned) that is, we would elimin-
ate the check basin (Which is said to
be the cause Of good deal of loss in

A HORSEMOBILE, A PURE WHITE
AUTO AND "A GOLD ONE ALL
VISIT AUGUSTA ON THE SAME DAY
Trio of Moxie Publicity Features Attract MI Attention
Water Street Late Tuesday Afternoon

we might have pictured pure white
and gilt automobiles like these but we
never really supposed there were such
things. That white automobile was
just as one young lady said Of 1t. with
much vim and enthusiasm. isn't that
a peach?" And then when she saw the
gold one-she just looked and looked
and looked and sighed. a big deep one.
The white one was banded with gold
and the gold one was banded with
green. Both cars are Cadillac road
sters and have dcne considerable trav-
cling but look just as If they had come
out OF the factory. they are so clean
and new looking.
In examining the Horse-Auto some
Of the more observant inquired about
the bride. They were informed that
the bride is made entirely Of horse
hair and is all hand work. The horse
hair has been dyed and plated in
rosettes and various other designs.
making a very pretty article. This
bride is valued at $75.
This trio has come over the road
through Vermont and New Hampshire,
At the State Fair at Whiteriver juno
ton, VT, Moxie Joe gave an exhibit
ton, going a mile in "2-f1at." There
the horse was presented with two blue
ribbons and also the key to the State
of Vermont. The Key is three feet
long, gilded and with the. lettering,
"Key to Vermont, 1916, Vermont State
Fair" At the fair at Rochester. N. H..
the same exhibition was given and the
horse was presented with a bride.
They have been at Portland, Lewiston,

Brunswick, back to Portland and then
out Of the State. From this State they
will go to Brockton Fair, Nashua,

We really thought the Land Of Lost
Toys had come into it's own right in
the city Of Augusta late Tuesday ayt-
ernoon, when there suddenly appear:
ed on the street before the Journal
still a pleasing one, in the form of q
horse on an automobile or an auto
mobile under horse, whichever. That
was not all. for very near this strange
machine animal was a pure white au
tomobile with gold bands, near that
and still more like make-believe
was an all gold automobile, trimmed
with green bands. So many sights
altogether in a bunch fairly took our
breath away. Yankees that we are,
we all looked on at distance at first.
not believing our eyes and too Yam
killed to take the next fellows word
for it. AS this trio of unique toys did
not fade away into the air we ap-
preached, questioned and were in
formed.
First was the horse-auto. A pure
white horse, standing 20 hands high. as
one farmer in the crowd calc'lated,
affixed to an automobile so that the
appearance was most deceptive, for at
first glance it would be hard to tell
which was the motive power. Where
the stirrups should be were the cranks
and breaks Of the auto. Where the
hand naturally rests while holding the
bride was the steering wheel. And
the whole thing seemed a most nat
ural combination after we had look
ed at it for some time. This would be
a still funnier contrivance without a
driver. Seated on the horse was a
man, known by all who have met him
as "Moxie joe" Otherwise than that
he is most obliging sort of a chap,
will answer all kinds Of phoolish ques-
tions and will explain the whole thing
in a most comprehensive manner, we
do not know much about him. But
isn't that enough to know about any
person, or at least enough nice things?
The "Moxie Horsemobile" is labeled
as a unique Moxie Publicity Fea-
ture" and we sincerely believe that
it is all that.
Then there were those fairy make
believe automobiles, which were most
realistic. In wishing games and dreams
