campaign was not on personal but
political grounds. When the fact
that his party is in the minority in
this county, and the eminent quail
fications, high standing and popular
ity of his adversary are considered,
Mr.. Gochenour can well feel proud
of the splendid race he made for the
office.
W. c. McCurry conducted the af-
fairs of his Office faithfully, and
without fear or favor" That
sounded very nice when candidates
accept their nominations, but in this
case it probably led to the failure to
get denomination by his party.
We hope Mr.. McCurry will find some
lucrative employment among us.
Mr.. Geo. T. Feast retires from the
Office of superintendent of schools
with the best wishes of many friends.
He will devote his time to his ranch
in the eastern part of the county.
The surveyors Office has been in
the hands of a deputy for over year
as Surveyor Sexton left this country
soon otter his election. The people
did well in electing as his successor
the man who has had charge of the
office as deputy.
Coroner Deeter stepped out of his
Office to assume the duties of Justice
of the peace, to which office he was
elected last fall.
Of such are the changes Of politi-
cal favors and fortunes. An eternal
grip on the public crib is guaran-
teed to few. Many times the reasons
for relegating an office holder to the
ranks of private life are trivial; but
where SO many grasp for the places,
changes are frequently made. 1t is
safe to say that all officers tried
faithfully to serve the people, but
mistakes will be made in county as
well as in personal business, and in
such cases, when adverse criticism is
rife, place yourself in his place, un-
der all the varied conditions pre-
senting themselves, and you will
find it easier to criticise than to
properly transact the business.

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
irrigation Is an Essential Part Of
Cultivation.

In the case of U. S. 6. Newman
VS.. John Spear, heir of Rosa Spear,
deceased, involving L. @. entry No.
974, n! ne4 and nj nw4 of section 4,
township % south, range 40 west,
Lamar district; D. E. Cooper, Esq,
attorney for contestant, raised the
question of the suf1iciency of Guilt
walton and care of said timber claim
without irrigation.
The Hon. Commissioner of the
General Land Office, in passing on
the point in the case, held as follows:
"There is no authority or prece-
dent for making an entry on desert
land for timber culture and holding
the same, without irrigation, and
such an entry would at all times be
futile.
1.-THE entryman and her heir in
this case do not appear to have been
misled by any holding or instruc-
ton of this Office, and there is no
evidence in this case indicating
that defendant or the deceased
daughter, who made the entry, or
either of them, did not know the
true character of the land when the
said entry was made, and there is no
evidence to show that either of them
made any effort to irrigate any por-
ton of said land.
Irrigation of desert land is an es-
sential point of its cultivation. 1t
was held as early as October "a, 1881,
in the case of Chapman vs.. Zweek, l
L. D. 1913, that "a party taking up
land in the arid country without the
means of complying with the strin-
gent provisions of the law, does SO
at his own risk
planting seeds upon unbroken
land would be more likely to pro-
duce crop if properly irrigated,
than seeds planted on unirrigated
desert land with all the other usual
cultivation

The Supreme Court of the United
States in decision published day
or two ago has emasculated the in
terstate commerce law and rendered
it practically a dead letter. The
Court holds, in case before it on
appeal, that the Commissioners can
not compel witness to give testi-
mony calculated to incriminate him
self This is very old principle OF
law, and ought not to have required
affirmation from the Supreme Court.
And yet its enforcement will render
it impossible to make case against
any railroad agent or shipper who
may be indicted under the Law.
The moment shipper testifies
against railroad company he tes-
titles against himself and subjects
himself to the penalty of the act.
The special release from this obliga-
ton granted by the Supreme Court
makes conviction under the act an
impossibility.- Globe Democrat.
