A measure is to be introduced
into congress giving $50 acres of
the public land to any person who
will sink an artesian well on the
Great Wester plains, and thus Sc
cure a permanent supply of water.
The cost of such work would rem
der il impossible for the ordinary
agricultural settler ON the frontier
to accomplish it, whereas stock
men desiross Of extending their
ranges would find the outlay an
excellent investment, and by sink
ing wells In the names of their
hands, they might socn seize upon
all the most eligible localities. Al
ready there Is much complaint hy
small farmers along the frontier
that the wealthy stockowners are
menopolizing all the springs and
water-courses ON the plains by Z
somewhat similar trick, and should
this measure be adopted doubtless
such complaints will be louder and
more numerous. Stockmen, how
ever, claim that the plains betweer
the Tooth meridian and the Rock,
mountains are unfit for tillage ar'
suitable only for grazing. TIN
question should be promptly in
vestigated, and should 1t turn on
that that vast, but at present arid
region is fit only for pasturage,
would be wise in the govenmen
to favor the above plan as ikei.
TO foster the great cattle interest
of westerR territories.

The Denver council Is a tie on the
proposition To make contract with
the Brush electric light company
for lighting the city. So Of course
the proposition is not adopted.
If this company really mean busl-
ness, they will do well to put up a
few of their lamps ON the most
freouented street corners OF the
city, that the people may see what
their light is. They must under
stand that lighting by the electric
article is still an experimet. The
people are not fond of experiments.
They cannot be expected to eXpe-
riment on the inventions Of iRdi-
viduals at their OWL expense. The
electric light inventors must show
the excellency of their Illuminating
article at their own expense, be
fore they can reasonably expect Il
sell it, even To cities. Let then
stop talking and put up the lights
