cided, by vote of 1872 for to IA against
to form an irrigation district on the
Horn Rapids project. A number Of
local holders failed to vote, while a
number who did vote made. such err
rors in their ballots that the same had
to be thrown out by the judges. The
directors elected were A. L. Nelson,
John Erickson and Oscar Rollins. Now
that the district is formed it will be
much easier for the land holders to

with the company and it is to be hoped
that a solution. of the matter may be
found before many weeks have passed.
