c. NJ. c. Woolman Informs us that
the North Ditch Co., Of Julcsburp
has recently been reorganizcd and the
management of the work Is NOW in
the hands OF Mr. Robinson, who has
had a number If years experience in
the construction Of irrigation bitches
in California. The L = Railroad Co. !.
are using their Influence IN behalf of
The enterprise and already heavy cap
itailsts are becoming Interested and
there Is no longer any question: but
that the necessary funds viii be- Sc
cured to complete the ditch. The
construction Of this irrlgallug ditch
means II Big boom for Juiesburg and
wc congratulate our sister town on
her future prospects. Mr. Robinson
la, also expressed himself ~ interest
ed IN the Irrigation of the country
south OF the Platte and claims that
there Is no doubt about there being
enough water IN the South Platte TO
lrrignto Phillips ctuniy and the south
part OF Scdgwlck. He intends, in the
near future, to take Il trip through
this county 10 talk with our people
and examine the lay OF the land. Our
people should interest themselves In
this mnttcr Mt oncc and leave nothing
nndonc that will lend any aid TO this
enterprise. When man. with the
practical experience in this llne OF
work that sir. Robinson is SAID to
have had, expresses an opinion Us to
the ultimate success OF such nm un.
dcrtal,lng, II should have much weight
with the people aud steps should he
taken 10, at least, make satisfactory
test Of the correctness Of the opinion,
We believe that the tlmo VIII come
when Philips county will bc one Of
the hest agricultural counties In the
state, but In order that this timcmay
be hnstenrd rs much rs possible, It
viii require that we be Wide awake To
our interests aud Improve every onpor-
tuni,y anoided for securing better
supply OF water

water was still flowing from the well.
This is certainly encouraging news to

there is certainly strong reasons for

a Great Outrage.


Yesterday afternoon @ciie several ladies',
enc of them from New York, were fishing
from Hunting creek bridge, man, who
was apparently under the iufaence OF t9nor,
came by In Cart and rudeiy called ou''
Get eff this bridge" As the ladies did not
suppose the order WAS addressed to them,
there being other persons On the bridge,
they went quietly or fishing, wbeFeapon,
the man referred to became very Violent
and said he was constable aud would ar
rest them, and when they questioned ais
authority, said he wou d bundle chem Into
bis cart and frightened them so that they
hastily came into town. l. Is understood
that the man Is constable and that hs
claims that some law forbids fishing on the
bridge, but surely, II there ia such law,
notice of 1t should be posted, for the people
of Alexandria have been 10 the habit OF
fishing from that bridge for many years. Be
sides, even if the Law was violated any de-
cent man would havs politely Informed
ladies that it was not allowed, instead OF
rudely ordering them IL as If they had been
negro boys. The good people of Mount
Vernon township owe IL to themselves to
look after this natter, for it is said not to
have been the frat performance of that
kind on the part of this officie'.
