LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 29.-(Spoclal.)- The Idea of G. L. Shumway of Scott's Bluff county that the waters of the Platte .river may be confined to a narrow channel by building a cement wail on each side of a narrow bed sufficient to carry the water has been partially en dorsed by C. II. Gcrber, assistant en gineer In the physical valuation depart ment of the railway commission. In a letter to Mr. Shumway, Mr. Gerber says he has bi-n studying the proposition of confining tlie waters of tho Platte' river to a narrower space and believes that the plan 'is feasible. He says that with the, present river it consumes about 300 acres-every mlto It runs and that be caUBo of tho wide channel a great deal of the water evaporates. By confining It to a narrow channel the water can bo better handled and there will bo more for use. He. says in his letter: A properly confined channol with a system of basins for storing flood waters will truly consorve the waters in the valley, will equalise the supply for Irriga tion or sub-Irrigation' and will also pro vide a constant flow for power develop ments. It is not, necessary to build a continuous cement channel, as you siaio, ?lnce the channel may be confined at ess cost and with the same result by a system of dykes. Jetties and wall' placed at proper points and the cost of this trpo of work would be approximately 50,000 Der mile, coverlnir the entire river from North Platte to Plattsmouth and the con struction work would require approxi mately ten years to complete. t Judge R, J, Stimson Dies at Fremont FREMONT, Neb., Aug. 29.
