Show r israelsen John A poori copyjs Capitol Logan, HYRUM, UTAH, IB U. S. REC-IfjlllG- H much There misunder- appears standing among the settlers of Southern Cache regarding this irrigation project. The Dam and Reservoir to be built just southwest of Hyrum City, on Little Bear river is intended to conserve the flood waters of said river, protecting the owners of primary water rights on said river and also apply the waters iormerly wasted on dry lands through canals higher up on said river. One tract of these dry lands is situated south of Wellsville known as the Sterling district, also west and north 6000 acre of Wellsville to Mendon. feet, out of the 14,000 acre feet to be conserved, is alloted It is to be conveyed to this tract to said lands by a canal taken out above said reservoir and skirting the south side there- needed can be supplied by pumping therefrom ; hence this part of the project appears O. K. The owners in this tract recently selected three of the five directors for the proposed irrigation District covering the entire project. The bahnce of dry lands supposed to be irrigated are situated east and southeast of Hyrum City toward Paradise, estimated at 2000 acres, of which, however, only about 500 acres having secondary water rights and all the city lots in Hyrum City, with either primary or secondary rights, are included in the project, which is very disappointing to the owners of the balance of these arid lands, and also to owners of primary water rights in Hyrum City. To this part of the project it is supposed the balance of the conserved water, 800 acre feet, will be allotted and charged while only two directors will represent this tract in the irrigation district. Then there is another serious question in connection with this part of the project, viz : the limit of 10 to 15 second cu. ft. in the dry part of the irrigating season, and which cannot be of, and when -- added to by pumping from said reservoir on account of the high elevation of the canal supplying this tract. For these reasons many residents of Hyrum hesitate joining the project unless more assurance of rights guaranteed. The small amount of water for this tract however, could arf should be increased by a small and cheap reservoir, buhl in east canyon just below mineral point, to conserve enough water to bridge over the shortage in the dry season. Tiiis should be guaranteed the water users in the Hyrum tract, in order to place them on equal footing with the interested parties on the r, tract. Former Hyrumite.

Slkson, President of the American Bankers Association, says in an article in Forum Magazine. The character of an institutions and investments indicates whether it is in the farm regions, a manufacturing center, a mercantile neighborhood or a great financial district, he says, and furthermore, besides identifying the institution as to its locality, a study of its notes will equally clearly indicate the economic conditions surrounding it. If a farm district banks note history shows that its loans rise and fall with the normal cycle of production and marketing of the products of the region, it may be taken as an index of economic good health for the locality, he says. But if, over a period, the loan volume shows a dwindling trend it may mean a region that is losing ground, becoming exhausted or being robbed of business by another community. Or if a large proportion of the loans are not paid at maturity but are chronically renewed, or if stocks or bonds or real estate have to be taken as additional security, these too have economic significances, reflecting perhaps crop failor iueflicient, ures, . high cost farming methods jn a highly competitive national or world market, such as wheat. Inevitably all these facts are reflected in the condition of the local banks. notes n City Banks, Too If the loans of a bank in a manufacturing or merchandising field show a smoothly running coordination with production and distribution they, too, mirror a healthy economic situation. Or there may be here also signs that reflect growing unfavorable conditions, such as excessive loan renewals, overenthusiasm and therefore of credit extended to makers or dealers in particular products, and similar circumstances. Similar conditions apply to banks engaged in financing the activities o the securities markets. The foregoing is merely suggestive of the infinite aspects of the life outwardly surrounding the banks which form and control their internal conditions. Although these facts seem obvious enough, the discussions and criticisms that have raged about the banks often appear to set them apart as somehow separate from the lives of our people, casting forth a malignant influence upon agriculture, industry and trade from forces generated wholly within themselves. The truth of the matter is that the fate of 'the banks is inseparably interwoven with the fate of the rest of the people and of the nation. What happened to the country happened to the banks and what happened to the banks is in no way different or detached from what happened to the people. They are all part of the same pattern, of the same continuous stream of events. No one element in that stream can be called the cause of business depression. If the hanks caused trouble to some of our people it was because they were irresistibly forced to pass on troubles that came to them from other people. These troubles impaired the values of their securities and customers notes and rendered some unable, in turn, to pay back to other customers their deposits that had been properly used to create these loans and investments. Unless these truths are kept continually in mind there is no such thing as approaching an understanding of the tanking problem or of properly safestake of the guarding the very heavy public in that problem.n July 24, will be celebrated in a big way in Hyrum.
