Settling n Complicated Question.

jefferson cuy correspondence sedoiid Cap
itot.
One OF the queerest requests that has
reached State officials for several months
Is n petition signed by eight bee keepers at
Kale. Mo-, asking that owners Of sorghum
mill near by be required to screen the mill
so as TO prevent great loss to the petitioners
because of the death OF their bees after
visiting the mill. After n long and tortuous
Journey through Federal and State boards
the petition finally reached the Board Of
Agriculture, and Jewell Msycs replied that
after careful search of the statutes he
believes the bee keepers have no recourse
at law but are liable themselves under the
aiatntee prohibiting trespass.

HydrO-Electric Project
to Dam the Colorado

Preparing to undertake the
colossal project of developing
2 500, 600 horsepower Of hydro
electric energy by i5npounding
the Colorado river at Glen Can
yon and Diamond Creek, the
Southern California Edison COM
pany has filed with State Water
Commissioner w. S. Norviel,
applications for development
which, including transmission
lines. will cost between 1925, :
900. 900 and $500, 900, 900. From
a financial standpoint the under
taking will be approximately
twice as great as the construc-
tion of the Panama canal, and
from an engineering view point
it will rank among the greatest
in the world.
Edwin 0. Edgerton, formerly
president of the California state
railroad commission, acting as
special counsel for the Edison
company, in its trans Colorado
activities, presented the appli-
cation to Commissioner Norviel,
accompanied by maps and ex-

pany has just qualified under
the laws OF Arizona to transact
business within its boundaries.
Upon the granting of the per-
mits the Edison company will
pay filing fees to this state,
which will amount to approx
mately $175, 900.

State Takes Over Lyman
Dam in Apache County
From the St. Johns Observer


Phoenix to meet with the board
of directors of the Lyman Water
Company and accept the Ly-
man dam, recently completed by
Parks and Johnson. Hamblin
and Garcia. The state officials
are here to represent the state
loan board.
The original dam was de-
stroyed by the flood of 1915,
Reconstruction was begun at
once by assessing the land own
ers to raise the necessary funds.
For two years the work contin-
ued from time to time and when
the funds were exhausted aid
was sought from the state to
carry it to completion. Senator
Fred Golfer got a bill through
the 1917 legislature permitting
the state land board to invest
permanent funds in projects of
this nature. The original esti-
mate made by Lamar Cobb, the
state engineer at that time, was
500, 600 and the loan board,
composed of Gov. G. w. P.
Hunt, Sidney p. Osborn, secre-
tary of state, and David John
son, state treasurer, granted the
loan of sloan acre. The amount
proved insufficient and another
loan of $40 an acre was asked
and granted in 1919, and before
this amount was all spent it was
found it would not be sufficient
to finance the dam to completion.
Before advancing any additional
funds in 1919 the board. made
up at this time of Gov. Thomas
E. Campbell, Secretary Mitt
Simms and Treasurer Harry S.
Ross, sent a number of engineers
to pass on the dam. Among the
number were Thomas Maddox,
state engineer; Louis c.. Hill.
r. S. Cookingham and Francis
L. Sellew, who at one time had
charge of the construction of
the Laguna dam at Yuma. Each
of the engineers prepared plans
and estimates of cost to COM
plete the project and the recon-
mendations of Engineers Mad
dock and Sellew were adopted
and an additional loan of $25 an
acre was then granted. bringing
up the total cost to $45 an acre,
or approximately $780, 900. Of
this amount there remains ap-
proximately $50, 600 which will
be spent to put the canal sys-
tenn in first class condition. The
cost of placing the canals will
be small and sufficient of the
$50, 600 now on hand will be
left over to meet any emergen-
cies that might arise next year.
| The cost of the project will be
prepaid to the state at the rate
of 6 per cent per annum in Is
years and commencing the sixth
year, in addition to the interest,
payment of 10 per cent must
be made on the principal.
The original cost of the dam
was increased owing to the high
cost of material and labor among
other items. Ihe changes made
by Engineer Maddox are said
to have added greatly to the sta
4 bility of the dam.
In revising the plans Mr.. Mad
dock reduced the height of the
dam FIVE feet and quantities
correspondingly. At the same
time the reduction made the
slope Of rock facing change
greatly reducing the angle of
the slope so that the rock would
be on the angle of repose, in
order to avoid the possibility of
settlement in the foundation
destroying the rock fill. The
subsequent settlement of the
The Snowflake herald., 1921-06-10

southern end of the dam under
construction proved that this
change was vitality necessary.
Mr.. Maddox insisted also that
only selected limestone be used
in the rock fill as sandstone in
this vicinity disintegrates within
six or eight months after being
exposed to the air.
