REPUBLICAN, HAS ALWAYS bEEN FOR
 SAN CARLOS DAM

When the Florence diversion dam at the Buttes became certainty the Re publican, in an editorial reproduced herewith, congratulated the residents of the F1orence-Casa Grande valley onl their triumph.
 That the Republican stands ready to help secure the San Carlos project in every possible manner goes without saying.
 May there soon be an opportunity for eongratulation for the San Carlos dam.
 Congratulations
 We congratulate the people of 5hel Florence and Casa Grande districtsl on the approaching realization of their aims of several years-an arrange ment with the government by which water may be secured for the irrigation of many thousands of acres Of rich land which lies in those districts and which will constitute great territor- iaI acquisition to Arizonas agricultural empire
 This arrangement needs only the approval of Secretary Lane to give 1t effect and we trust that that approval will not be withheld. The plans have already been worked out to the min utest details so that once the word is. given work may be immediately begun for the reclamation of that rich region. At the same time we congratulate Phoeniv and the Salt River valley on the end of these negotiations between the various interests of Pinal county and the government. The more culti vated land there is in or adjacent to this valley the better it will be for us. It takes area to make a great and rich agricultural region. The greater the area the broader the market, the more attractive to population.
 Tn an early day there were people in the Salt River valley who did no. care to see an expansion of the cu.ti- vated area within the valley. 70 them that meant only competition, greater production and consequently, lower prices. It has not worked out that way. If this valley had orly 1000 acres of irrigable land it would not be worth much an acre. It really would not be worth while; it couli never have a market. There cannot be too much of good thing.
 We wish there was water for every acre of land in Arizona except that In the mountains underlaid with great mineral deposits or which is covered with great forests.
Arizona republican., 1919-08-22

talking about it since the editorial appeared. and to say that the people are more than pleased, is putting 1t mildly. I want to thank you very much on behalf of everybody here for the stand taken by the Republican, and wish to assure you the same is very much appreciated over the whole valley.
 Again thanking you and assuring You that, should be the San Carlos be constructed it would mean more to Phoenix than anything else could mean outside the building of the reservoir at Roosevelt itself. I am, with regards and best wishes,
 Very sincerely yours,

STATE HIGHWAY WORK
IN WHITMAN COUNTY
Surfaeing of the Gap Between Union
town and Lewiston Hill Has
Been Delayed but VIII Be
Rushed

Quite a program of road construc-
ton is planned for this season In
Whitman county by the state high
way department, This work is under
the supervision of H. J. Doolittle,
district engineer, whose headquar-
ters are in Spokane and who visited
Pullman last week. In addition to
the work in Whitman county Mr..
Doolittle has charge of the state
road work in Stevens, PendOreille,
Spokane and Asotin counties.
Two pieces of construction work
are now in progress on the eastern
division OF the Inland Empire high
way. Between Oakesdale and Gar
field there are nine miles being
graded by Mitchell Bros. of Spokane
and it is expected that the work will
be completed in about a month.
Near Garfield the highway has been
relocated so as to eliminate a dan
gerous railway crossing by the con-
struction of an overhead crossing.
Another betterment over the old
road is the new located line south
of Duekworth, where the steep hills
are to be abandoned for water
grade, and quite substantial saw
ing made in distance.
The other work which is just
south of Uniontown. is what is com
monty known as the Uniontown gap,
section of "a miles, which is now
graded, but the surfaeing work has
been delayed for some time because
Of the loss in shipment of parts for
the crusher which has been set up
for over a month The missing
parts are expected this week and
the work will be crowded to COM
pletion in the course of about 40
days. The contractor. H. C. Malott,
of Seattle, is contemplating putting
on two shifts at the crusher. This
will connect Pullman and Lewiston
with a hard surfaced road.
Bids will be received at Olympia
on the 25th of this month for the
grading and surfacing of % miles
Oh the Inland Empire highway be-
tween the end of the highway as
now built to Alkali flat and Central
ferry. An engineering crew will be-
gin work on this project sometime
this week With the completion of
this work and a similar gap south
OF Snake river the highway will be
completed between Colfax and Day
ton. Owing to the magnitude of
these two pieces of work 1t will prob
ably take until next spring to finish
the work. The work in Whitman
county has been approved as fed
eral aid project and as such the ex-
pense of this work will be shared
by the state and federal government
on a $3.50 basis

Work started yesterday on the con-
struction of the r, c. McCroskey
Hall, the new campus residence for
women which will be built this fall,
present plans calling for completion
of the building in advance of the
second semester, February 2. The
ground which has been selected for
tie womens residence hall lies in
the square Immediately west of Stew
ems Hall and north of the Admins
tration building.
The building will be H-shaped,
rather delicately proportional to in
dictate its use and VIII be in renais-
sance style. The foundation is OF
concrete stone The walls are OF
rich red brick with touches of yell
low and purple. The exterior en-
bellishments consist of iron balconies
and cast stone caps and bases on the
pilasters. Professor Rudolph Weay-
er. head of the department of archl-
lecture here, made the plans for the
building, and will be supervising
architect of its construction.
Among noteworthy features OF the
new womens residence hall are the
stairways, each of which amounts to
an inside fire escape, thus obvlatlns
the necessity of placing exterior es-
canes. The building plan is such
that from any point in the building
on any floor, there are at least three
WAYS of egress in case of fire. Every
corridor in the building ends in "a

discord and anti-Americanism The
demands upon his time at the pres

{. R. SANDERS CO.
|. PLANS NEW BUILDING
!, Case the City Council Will Vacate
Ten Feet Strip ON East Side of
Kamiaken Street

The C. X. Sanders Co. has secured
from Chris Wurgler an option on the
,ot between the alley, back of the
Baker Motor Co.'s building, and the
river and plan to at once erect a
brick building with frontage of
about so feet on Kamiaken street
and running back some so feet. The
erection of the proposed building
ril probably depend upon whether
or not the city council vacates 10
feet of Kamiaken street across the
front of the Wurgler lot, so that
the building can be brought out
close to the sidewalk leading onto
the bridge.
The north side of the proposed
building will be constructed on piers
or piles so as not to interfere with
the flow of the water in the river.
The building is to be of attractive
design and will be occupied by the
6. R. Sanders Co.'S stock of gro
ceries which must be moved out of
the present quarters in the near fu-
tire. as the Baker Motor Co. needs
the room, now occupied by the gro
Gerry store, for a repair shop.
