waterpower, to the benefit of the people, and that
he was = champion for the people was demon

gone by, he will find plenty to do to improve con-

commonwealth
In view of the fact that the Republican organi-

women for his nomination. None too strangely,
the women, up to date, have most frequently been

that the women again made no mistake.

Grams seeking allotments in the states
land settlement colony at White Bluffs
agree to permit the state to make i'm
provements which would make the
cost of the land $4,000 to $4,000 for a
20-acre tract. This really is the max
imum improvement the state will
make; the minimum is the installa-
ton of motor and pump, digging a

buildings suitable to allottees.
Under the law alloments cannot be
made until so days after advertising.
Therefore Director Scott cannot pick

seek 20 acre tract yet wish cheaper
improvements can advise the director
Of the extent Of such sentiment and
