The tons iu Ike ktois named eftbe
noticed for some time that our own
“Windy" was entering two and
sometimes tlir»-e quarters of land
per day under thu “reservoir act”
und it set the people to thinking and
at the same time investigating and
they soon discovered the real mean
ing of that act. It was framed by
I'eltigrew of South Dakota and
passed without debate under the as
surance that it was merely for the
protection id' western cattle men
who had gone to the expense of put
ting in reservoirs and that there was
nothing in it that would he object
ionable to any one, yet on a closer
examination the fact is disclosed
that one man can enter as many
pieces as lie wishes under the act,
and have two years to build a reser
voir, and no stated dimensions are
culled for, so that a hole of any size
will cover the requi.ements. This is
a ( lean job of swindle and one ttiat
will most likely he heard from later.
