The Boise Statesman SAYS:

The building of the Black Canyon
dam seems to be postponed indefinite
ly.
Farmers on the project have count
ed upon having this work started at
the close of the irrigation season this
year and it is doubtful if another crop
can be watered by the present canal.
This is serious situation. It de-
serves to be taken up with vigor.
DELAY does not mean simply inconve-
nience; it may mean destruction to
one of our finest farming tracts. In
vestigation win show this to be an
emergency case.
The full power of the state should
be put back of an effort to have this
construction to go on as planned.
Putting it of may mean putting one
of our finest irrigating rivers out OF
business for an indefinite time.

Word comes from Washington that

Abandonment of the Black Canyon

under any consideration.

laying q work to bring new lands un-
