cial.) Through a misunderstanding of
some sort. It has been found that a ruling
of the secretary of the interior will de
prive many thousand acres In this vicinity
ef storage water provided under the pro
visions of the Warren act. A special
meeting was called In the roir.m ot the
Pcotfs Bluff club and the following tele
gram was sent to the" Interior depart
ment: v
Honorable Walter I. Fisher, evrelSry
ot the Interior. Washington. P. ('.: We
have Just learned that the sal of reser
voir aster will be retricteri to lands al
ready actually under Irrigation. We ave
thoroughly acquainted with the Mi ml,
under the various canals In the North
Platte valley that hae made application
to the reclamation service for an auxil
iary supply of such water, and all condi1
tlons relating thereto, and most urgently
reauest that such restriction be with
drawn as to nonlrrlgated lands under
existing Irrigation systems. The need "of
storage water for these lands Is im
perative during a portion of each seaaon,
and their owners. In many Instances tM
settlers, have waited years for water,
undergoing every hardhlp, and have only
refrained from rtreparfng their land for
Irrigation because of their nenet. justi
fied by subsequent developments, that
without storage water their labor'woald
be In vain, and bring only loss. All are
willing and ailoua to put their land
under Irrigation the moment storage
water inn be obtained to supplement the
supply from the direct flow of the river.
and assure them a return for their hu
bandry. . ..',
We respectively submit that the ex
clusion of lands not yet Irrigated would
work Irreparable Injury upon th very
people most entitled to conatderatiaii,
and urge that every privilege and benefit
of the Warren act he accorded them.
