That this' liquor cache had i*> e x

case-, but why ths young man should
have plotted murder to gat the $1400
is som ething that has not yet devel
oped.
I t had been arranged that Bowker’s

General Goathals’ report on tha
Columbia basin project w ill prove to
bo a most im portant contribution to
tiw whoU cause of reclam ation.
Ha says that tha coat o f bringing
w ater by g ra v ity to this project o f
approxim ately
1,760,000 acres in
Eastern W ashington w ill average
1146.66 an acre, th at the cost o f
paring tha soil fo r cultivation w ill
range from $80 to $60
but that i f the amount totaled $800
to $876 aa acre returns would ju stify
the coa t
Ha says that tha project is fu lly
ag B itlftm l in ico p t
as the Panama canal or th
railw ay, that it would add m ore to
the national w ealth than either, sad
that It should be fiaanoad s i
the canal and the railw ay by
governm ent appropriation.
H e says that in six years this grea t
body o f desert, treeless,
inhabited land could ba green with
crape and busy w ith new life
farm s and in new towns.
Ha says that fo r every one o f tha
thousands o f carloads o f products
■hipped from the project a carload
at m achidery and »applies would be
■hipped to it from - manuf acturers,
m erchant» and jobbers.
Hu says that the same qu ality aad
proportionate quantity o f production
m ay ba expected from the Columbia
basin project- as from tha
Yakiaaa
and
W enatchee
projects
whose combined products last year
ware valued in excess o f $76,060,000.
There are other potentially pro
ductive lands in Oregon sad Wi
ington that could be reclaim ed at
less cost than $146 a » acre ■ with
$20 to $60 as acre added fo r
pease o f sellin g and preparation o f
soil.
When General G eeth ali say» that
the Columbia basin project is
om icslly feasible he, in fe ^ n tia lly ,
says that projects o f I s m cost are
proportionately m ore feasible.
When he says that ths Columbia
basin project is s national project
that would add mors to national
wealth than tha Panama « » « 1 or
tha Alaska railw ay ha says that other
projects could make, in proportion,
•van greater contributions.
When he sey» that tha Columbia
basin project m erit» a direct govern
mental appropriation, ha argues in
behalf o f a national reclam ation pro-
X ™ » equally helpful to other ’pro
jects o f proved m erit.
General Goathals is a grea t en gi
neer. His work in connection with
the Panama canal is ona o f the great
engineering
achievem ent»
o f all
tiniM. Ha speaks w ith an authority
relative to great constructive works
rarely equaled by any man.
I f ths governm ent should taka up
ths Columbia basin project on. his
recommendation, i f would find its e lf
com m itted, to sa expenditure o f
$264470,861 within n period o f six
years, which would straightw ay be
gin adding each year to tbs nation's
wealth, judged by the experience o f
other projects, nearly, i f not all, o f
