COLORADO.

OoLoApo, TEXAS, March 29.-[ 'orrespond-
epce The cries of distress that recentlv
has come mp from the head waters OF the
Ohio to the mouth of the Mississippi on &C.
count OF the foods sound like strange
stories here where we have been thirsty Tor
five long months-where cisterns are nearly
all dry, and where water Is msted out at
the luxurious price OF 2j to 80 cents per
barrel
Unfortunately for US the burning OF the
artesian we'll :ower and buildings, and the
destruction of the contractors machinery
will necessarily delay this work, which was
possibly almost complete but for this catas-
trophe. The Colorado and Seven Wells
Water company have made promises so
long that 1t is no longer believed that they
will ever accomplish any work
The excitement of the hour here now is
over local politics, or the speculations
the applo ching municipal election.
The Ranchman is hrandishing a heavy
bludgeon, and openly denouncinR the city
government for the misappropriation ol
81, go, and the mayor, who seeks re-elec-
ton, for incompe ency and want OF dignity
and generally asserts that Colorado Is
governed be q genuine Tweed ring. This
coud tion OF things wa first suggested by q
correspondent Of THE HERALD some months
ag9, and the seed he sowed seems to h ,vs
terminated, and nov promises to yield
fru,t. We await with anxiety the result o
the election.
Mr.. J. T. Davis has broken ground fol
aroiher large brick block, and other build
ings are proposed this spring.

THE CONTRIBUTORS TEN COMMAND
NENTS.

The following version of the econ
tr;butor's Ten Commandments is
taken from Swedish paper. 1t
would be interesting TO cOllatc it with
any similar dccalogue existing in other
countries:
1. IfyOu wish to send a commune

Tomorrow.
.. BE concise in your statement for
thereby YOU save your own time and
that of the reader. Explanations not
words; facts, but no reflections Oh
them.
3. BE simple, write distinctly, do
not talk about to-day or Yesterday, but
give the name of the day or the
| date.
4. Begin frequently line, which
gla,ldens the compOsitOr. Write short
sentences, for the benefit OF the reader.
Use many stops and commas, and
do not forget to put them in.
MS. Do not correct single letters or
numbers, but cross out the whole
word when a correction is
wanted.
6. First and foremost, write only
Oh ono slolC VI tbO "A
lines Oh one side can be cut into ten
pieces, and set up by several compost
!, tors in ten minutes. If written on
both sides, only one compOsitOr can

t hours.
Z. A MS. paper which takes some
I hours in getting into type is in danger
of not being printed the first day, aud
is passed over until another day..
s. What is kept till the next day is

q Each day has its own trouble; yester-
Y day is always in the wrong.
j 8. Put your name and address OH
e the back OF your copy.
e 10. Above all, speak the truth, and
q nothing but the truth. If you talk

v modesty, but also without cOnceit.

presented which involved or affected
the merits OF the claim OF either party,
nor could such question have been
raised except before the committee on
credentials and in convention on the
rcpOrt of that co mutt =.
Waiting for &c pi Jper time TO come
to hear, and COZ slider, and determine
the merits of the CO. lest for seats from
the Second and FoL:th districts, tho
delegates from Lafayette and johnson
patiently sat in quiet, ready and willing
to hear all claimants and parties to the
contest, and believe i'll a spirit todo
Justice between them; but no occasion
arose and no opportunity was given
them for any action in regard to this
contest.
ought not to close this paper with
out mOl icing reckless statement made
BY certain parties to the effect that the
delegates of Lafayette and johnson
were in confederation and combination
to accomplish certain results i'll the con-
vention. For myself say in unqua'i-
fled terms that was 10 party to any
such confetleracy or combination, never
met with the johnson delegation or
ailY of them, and never even conferred
with them or any of them, IA to any
thing to be done in conventions; never
heard of any such thing on the part OF
delegates from either of said counties,
and believe the statement to he with
ont the shadow of truth for foundation.

THE FIFTH DISTRICT MUDDLE.

From the st. Louis POst-Dispatch, Aug. %.
The Republican this morning admits
That Mr.. Wallace was the strongest
man in the fifth district convention,
admits that he had a majority of the
delegates with regular credentials, and
admits also that he was wrnnged, but
manages to reach this strange cOnclu-
sion:
"Thcre is one way, we will not say
the only way, out of the trouble, and
that is a sacrifice on the part OF Mr..
Wallace 1t would be heroic in him to
withdraw from the field and abide his
time which will surely come, for
there is no popular feeling more last
ing and determined than that which
demands the concession to a candidate
of a nomination which he was wrong
fully deprived of on a previous occa-
sion"
Now, the rninp convention which
| nominated Mr.. Graves contained but
ftwcntv-nlme of the sixty eight dele
yates with credentials These twenty
nine, six less than Il quorum, under the
direction OF committee opposed to
Wallace, undertook to organize the
district convention by DISTINGUISHING n
sufficient number of the Wallace dele
gates, on IL prctense of a contest.
There was 10 pretcnse that Wallace
had failed to carry the Legislative district
from which the larger number of the
contestants hailed. The ground Of the
contest, the fact that the delegates
were appointed by the Jackson coun-
, ty convention, was IA valid to unseat
any one of them. The proposed action
was simply declaration of the right
) of the twcntv-ninr delegates from LII
, t:lvctte and Johnson to substitute con-
: tcstants for any or all OF the thirty
| nine delegates appointed by the Jack
: son county convention, and to deprive
Mr.. Wallace of anv or all of his dele
: gates, although he had carried tire.
