Hon. J. Is. Shaughnessy: -3 Sept. 26, 1934. than Is the Union Pacific depot at las "Vegas, and letter stated also that 220 acres of water bearing land owned by the City at about !§? miles further distance out from town than said reservoir is about 200 feet higher than said Union Pacific depot. The City has one artesian well 7-5/8 inch diameter continuously flowing over 40 miners inches of water, but not used by city. The las Yegas land and Water Company artesian well is 16 inches diameter. I figure that the City could readily drill sev­eral other wells of large diameter on their same land, the same as the City of Ogden, Utah, did for their City Water Works System on about a 20 acre area, though Ogden owns much more than the 20 acres at their head of water works system. Respectfully yours, J. I. McWIlUAMS, State Water Right Surveyor.
