WILL RECLAIM
ENTIRE VALLEY
Irrigation Project May Mean
Reclamation Of All
Sou them Idaho
(Tribune Special Service

BOISE, Sept. l8.-The outline of a
development scheme contemplating
the most gigantic irrigation and power
system in the United States was
touched upon in general way before
the state land board last week when
the Twin Falls Land & Water COM
pany asked the board to apply to the
secretary of the interior to have
554.0OO acres of the Big Bruneau
project segregated as the first unit in
the proposed development.
Although the first segregation lies
in the extreme southwestern part of
the state, the system when completed
according to the promoters, will sweeb
from Yellowstone lake in Wyoming
across southern Idaho to the Oregon
state line.
1t will cost when completed more
than 500, 100000. A dam will be built
at American Falls costing $4,000, 900,
or five times as much as Arrowrock
dam.
Recommendation Comes Soon.
A recommendation on the segrega-
ton will be made to the land board,
probably within week, by Reclama-
ton Commissioner w. G. Swendson.
The American Falls reservoir as
tentatively planned, would be an i'm
mense structure. 1t would back up
enough water in the Snake river to
furnish an inexhaustible supply for
every irrigation project now using
water from the river or in contem-
plation, it is claimed; and the power
resources of the state would be en-
larged to a point that cannot even
be estimated understandingly because
of the magnitude of the thing.
Waters of the Snake river would be
supplemented with the winter run-off
from Yellowstone lake in Yellowstone
park, which would be diverted to the
Snake by means Of an enormous tun-
mel through the divide.
Another unique engineering feature
of the Big Bruneau project would be a
o0-mile canal from Miner dam, ,at
which the water would be diverted
from the Snake river, to the project.
The water would be brought down

MAN THAT Is MAN.
Bv Walter Robinson

Not the fellow that takes your hand
In an idling hour;
Not the fellow that slaps your back
AS long as the highballs flow;
But the chap that speaks a windy
word
When the world is running wrong,
The fellow that grips your hand
Good and strong,
And tells you life's sweet song.
What if we know the fellow lies?
What if he knows it, too?
There are times in life
When the friend that lies
Is the only friend that is true.
CaVil and rant, We prudes that will,
OF the evil of wine and gin,
But somehow the real, true things
that we feel
Leaks out when the wine leaks in.
The fool is fool, the cad is a cad,
Whichever God means him to be.

A Road Buildin1 SIooan

"Let Arizona roads be built with Arizona ma terias by Arzonians," has been proposed as slogan of the road construction campaign. We do not be- lieve any Arizonian think of better one. It ought to strike the taxpayer who has the bills to pay.
 There is nothing outside of Arizona needed for road construction and there is nothing outside of Maricopa county that brought in for carrying out the county highway program. There is no place earth where roads can be built better or more cheaply.
 The investigation of the cement industry by the attorney general of Kansas in consequence of an exorbtant price demanded for for road build- ing in Wyandotte county, resulted in showing that it cost $175 a barrel to manufacture cement at lola, and that it should be delivered in Wyandotte for $40 a barrel. We have more abundant material for cement here than there is in all Kansas and as good as the best there.
 We need only plant and there is a plant he,n ready for the taking The highest authority on ce- ment manufacture has given opinion that cement be made here for s1S3 barrel with the present equipment of the plant. By an increase of it's ca pacity the cost be reduced. This price of s1S3 is only 5S cents more than the freight alone on a barrel of cement brought from the nearest point out side of Arizona
 In view of the great demand for cement for road building to nothing of the need of it for con- struction and the needs that will be felt by farmers all over the valley, it would be criminal to let that plant lie idle fall into the hands of private parties who would use it for the extortion of exorbtant profits.

They had been brought to America by the fast drigble R-34, the first transatlantic airship. And they were being printed far west as the Missouri river when the President set foot on American soil

The Verde Water Project

We do not suppose there will be serious opposi- ton to the Verde water bond proposition. The amount proposed to be voted is large, but the neces sity for better and enlarged water system is ur- gent. We must have it. The present system has been outgrown and is no longer susceptible of ex- pansion to meet the needs of the city.
 The amount to be voted large as it may seem, is small in comparison with what other cities have had to expend for water systems. The outlay of Los Angeles on the great Owens River project was five times much per capita the Verde project will cost the citizens of Phoenix
 Ever since Phoenix began grow rapidly seven years ago, the question of adequate water supply has been a nightmare to those who were looking into the future It evident then that the present system and any possible expansion of it would be inadequate Its inadequacy is being felt more and every day.
 We might get along for a while with inferior water if there enough of it but the time is rapidly coming when there will not be enough of it. If could expand the system to meet the needs of the city, the cost of operation would increase (and the cost of such a system is necessarily heavy) bearably. So the money to be spent the Verde project would be money-saving investment.
 The Verde project has not been undertaken hastily. It has been under consideration for many years, during many administrations. Several of the leading engineers and experts from different parts of the country have been called in within the last ten years and after the most exhaustive investigations they have given the project their hearty approval Nothing has been left to chance or conjecture and every precaution has been taken against miscalcu- lation.
 There is no better water anywhere than that of the Verde and can be purer and cleaner than will be brought through system of inffltration How saving will be effected to users in the matter of plumbing bills in laundry work, in the repair of boilers and automobile radiators lowered insurance rates, etc, has already been pointed out
 We might forego the greater purity, the higher quality of the water and the saving that would be effected by it's use, but we must have more water ana the Verde project alone offers us more.
