SUIT OF THE WATER COMPANY. On
Saturday last there came up in the JUS
tees Court the suit OF the Floral Springs
Water Company against Lincoln county
for $l45. being for one-half Of the repairs
to the water. pipes, plugs, ETC. A jury
was empan eled and gave verdict in
favor Of tho water company, and we do
not see how they could have done other
wise, as the Supreme Court decided
some time since that the water company
were only joint owners with the county,
and as such were responsible for only
one-half the taxes, so that under that de.
cision the county ia certainly responsible
for one-half the repairs. An argument
was made that the contract could and
should be broken. The breaking OF the
contract is just what the water company
want; in fact, Captain Lubbock will pay
$1,000 to the county If the Commission
srs will agree to cancel the contract.
The people, however, do not want the
contract broken. They want the water
in case Of fire, as the town has had sew

the water Phoebe would have been mass

OF 1871.

Congressional Nonina lions.

The Republican nominations for
Congress in this State are now all
made. They are men capable of
welding a powerful influence in
Washington. Messrs. Williams, Cas-
well, Hazelton, Humphrey and Pound
are members of the present Con-
gress, land renominated as candidates
for the next. Experience will cause
them to be more efficient in the fu-
ture than they have been in the past.
OF the reelection Of these men there
can be bat little doubt. In the dis.
tricts now represented by Democrats
the Republicans have dominated
iirst-class meu; men of ability; and
men who will be true to the best in
terests of the State. Hiram Smith
in the 5th, and James V. Jones in
the 9th district are men that ought
to be elected over their opponents,
Messrs. Deuster, Bragg and Bouck.
Let the people of these districts can
vass fairly the characters and qualli-
fications of the candidates Of the two
parties. and it would seem that their
good common sense would cause
them to elect the Republican candi-
date in each district. Good solid
work will secure this result.

IA poor man buys soup tickets.
He is not hungry at the time of the
purchase, and will not be for some
hours. During these hours the
greenback gentlemen argue there is
no use of keeping any. soup on band
with which to redeem these tickets
and they further argue that if they
be good for few hours without soup
why not forever! And they would
be only the holder gets hungry. IN
til he gets hungry Of course he does
not care whether there is any soup
on hand or not, but When he presents
his ticket he wants soup, and the
idea that he can have the soup when
he does present the ticket, gives it
its value; and so regard banknotes
without gold and silver as of the
same value as tickets without soup.
And the man who has cart-load
OF tickets for soup drawn against a
supply which will never have an ex-
istence is poor indeed.

Two years ago the Democrats
claimed that Colorado had gone
Democratic many days after the re-
suit was known. They resorted to
deliberate misrepresentation to carry
a point and failed. A Democratic
House, at later date, refused to al
low the Republican Congressman to
take his seat. The public press
warned the Democracy at the time
that this knavery would be remem-
bered. and that the people of State
robbed of their right of representa-
tation would visit vengeance on the
party doing the wrong. The figures
show how we'll the people Of Colora-
do have resented Democratic inter-
ference. They have made sure of
Republican State officers, Republi-
can Congressman, Republican Leg
islature, and Republican United
States Senator. Will Republicans
in other States remember the mex
cusable meanness and low partisan
ship Of the Democratic House, and
rebuke it as Colorado has done!

THE million and d half of dollars
so generously and so Willingly given
by people of the North to sufferers
Of the South shows a bright side to
human nature. 1t is not alone the
money OF itself, valuable in adding
to the comfort or in alleviating the
suiferings of the afflicted, but the
earnest expression of sympathy,
which were gifts betoken, and which
makes the Offering doubly valuable.
1t has shown that people antag
tic in politics, differing widely in
customs, and controlled by many
prejudices, can lay them all aside
and heartily unite in expressions of
fellowship and good will. All the
people want to know is how they
can do the most good.
