assessments ami state runts made

If a certain dam and ditch costs a
million dollars anti provides for the
irrigation of 1'X).(XX) acre» of land
the settlers who take that land ‘
must pay flOan acre to the Gov-j

that this money will ever be re

Every western interest would op
pose such a measure for under the
irrigation law the money when
paid back to the Government is to
be used over again for building
