estimate of cost is that contained in the public notioe issued under section A. The Secretary of the Interiors let ter of May 10, 1904, was simply an authorization of the settling aside of certain funds for the construction of the project, and it merely recited the reports thereto submitted that the lands could be reclaimed at a cost of not to exceed 80 per acre, which was considered at that time to be the max imum at which the lands could be readily settled under the reclamation act This letter in no wise constituted fixing of the construction charge as contemplated in section of the act of June IT, 1902.

 Washington, D. c.
 Gentlemen: I have your letter Of April 2, 1917, wherein, after referring to the reports and recommendations of the local board of review, relative to the lower Yellowstone reclamation project, you, after stating that the chief counsel orally expressed doubts as to the legality of the action, recom- mend that the construction charge of the lower Yellowstone project be fixed at s30 per acre, plus cost for drainage n d supplemental construction, amounting to s7.70 per acre, plus de ficit in operation and maintenance charges, amounting to $2.S3 per acre, making a total of $40.53 per acre,rep- resenting the acreage cost up to De- cember 31, 1914. This recommends, tion is made on the further condition that irrigation districts be organized by the water users and the districts undertake and agree to repay the amounts fixed; with the further mod ification that the repayment of con struction costs, in 20 annual install ments, shall not begin for period ot five years, during which latter period the project is to be operated upon a rental basis.
 I have given this matter very care full attention, reviewing all letters and reports relative to the project, as well as opinions rendered by legal officers of this department, and am convinced that am without authority to approve so much of your recommendation as will diminish the reclamation fund by more than 8 million dollars, which ap pears to have been honestly and in good faith expended in substantial ir rigation works upon this project. am convinced that the law requires the Secretary of the Interior to SC cure the return of construction costs in accordance with the official public notices heretofore issued in those cases where water rights contracts have been issued in accordance with the notices, and to secure the remain ing expenditures from the other lands

GERMAN SOCIALIST TOLD
 RUSSIA TO FIGHT ON

BERLIN, July 7.-The Berliner Ia geblatt reports the German Govern ment is considering the arrest and prosecution of four we'll known Radi- cal Socialist leaders for high treason.
 Two of them are said to be members of the Reichstag and it is rumored they are George Ledebour and Hugo Hasse. The two others are probably the aged historian and Prussian Deput ty Dr. Franz Mehring, and Joseph Westmaier, a member of the Diet Of Wuertemberg.
 Mehring is accused of having sent message to the Russian Socialists, ad- vising them not to make peace with Germany until she is conquered.
 Westermaier recently circulated pamphlets in Southern Germany urg- ing the working class of people to re- volt and to make common cause with France.

NO REDUCTION IN CONSTRUCTION CHARGES ON
 LOWER YELLOWSTONE PROJECT

of the project not yet signed up. In other words, the central board of re- view finds the total irrigable acreage to be 60,116 and the total cost on De- cember 31, 1914, to have been $2,993,- 202.46, which amount it appears to be my duty to collect in accordance with the terms of the reclamation law.
 As indicated, I am without legal au- thority to make the reduction recom- mended. See enclosed opinion of the Solicitor for the Department of the In terior. 1 will be glad to extend such equitable treatment to the water users on the project as is permitted by the law, and in this direction approve the recommendation that if irrigation dis tricts be formed which will obligate themselves to repay the construction, operation and maintenance charges of the project, the same be carried upon rental basis for period of five years, after which the construction cost be repaid in 20 annual install ments in the manner and form pro- vided by the reclamation extension act.

 Washington, May 1, 1917 The Secretary of the Interior:
 Dear MT. Secretary: My opinion has been requested as to whether you have thte legal power to reduce the construction charge upon the lower Yellowstone reclamation project to a sum of $30 per acre.
 From the papers submitted I infer that the United States has already expended $2,9993, ,2O2.46 in construc tion work upon this project; that the public notices heretofore issued fixed the construction charge as to 416 acres at $425O per acre and 31,610 acres al $45 per acre. AS to the other lands for which water-right contracts have not as yet been made, the United States may fix the charges at actual cost, which will amount to approXi mately $65 per acre.
 Complaint is made in the appeal that the estimated cost at the com mencement of the project has been in creased. As stated, it has been

Boundary County
Idaho

is the extreme northern county of
Idaho. It's principal resources are ag-
riculture, dairying and stock raising,
mining, timber. The county includes
large portion of the Kootenai Val
ley, the most fertile district Of the
world. Cutover lands may be pur-
chased on long time contracts at from
$40 to s25 per acre. Bottom and mead
ow lands sell for from SO to $50 per
acre. There are many hundreds of
acres of agricultural land in Boundary
county which will make fine homes for
the energetic farmer Millions of feet
of timber remain uncut and the rivers
and creeks may be easily harnessed to
give thousands of horsepower. Raw
material in quantities to last 100 years,
for paper pulp, may be found in the
county and this timber Is easy of ac-
cess. The mining industry is yet in
its infancy. Sufficient capital would
put only one of a dozen mines on q
dividend-paying basis. The climate is
ideal, the rainfall all that is needed
No irrigation in this district. Good
roads. good schools. Plenty of trans
portation facilities.
