The Bank Report.

This week is published the latest
report OF the of the condition Of the
First National Bank of Lamar, as re-
quired by law to be made to the
Comptroller of the currency at his call.
As sign OF the times, nothing is more
accurate in indicating the general pros
perity or depression OF community
than the bank deposits. When the
control OF this bank was assumed by its
present officers and stockholders in last
July, the deposits as shown by their
then required statement were S23, ,7O9.3S.
The present report shows the de-
posits to be S4S,6s2.lS, This is an
increase in less than one year Of nearly
S25, 600. The other business and bal
ances Of the bank have increased in
proportion,
The course of this bank during the
past year has been marked by the most
conservative management. This. coupled
with the fact that it's largest stockholders
are the wealthiest men and Of the best
bankers and business men OF Colorado,
gives this institution stability and
standing seldom enjoyed by country
banks,

Speaking abou. Newspapers.

The Denver Republican is great
newspaper. Its editorial policy and
utterances are always honest, fair and
true to Colorados best interests. Its
news both in quantity and quality is
unapproachable. 1t pays for and pub
fishes more telegraphic news and local
news than any other daily paper pub
lished between st. Louis and San Fran
cisco. 1t prints its news fairly, too
without twisting, distorting or coloring
it for any purpose. Its special news
service, which covers in general way
all the great news centers of the world,
and particularly well the Rocky Noun
tain Region, costs large sum each day.
But this is one of the many features
which has made it one OF the leading
newspapers of the United States, and
immeasurably the foremost in its own
vast field.

Comparisons are odious.

The contrast between republican and
democratic methods is we'll illustrated
in the management of the public lands
under the present and the late admins
trations.
No western man, no matter what his
politics, can recall the Sparks regime
with any feelings except disgust and re-
sentiment. The policy then was one of
suspicion toward all settlers upon the
public domain. And, after the retire
ment of Sparks, made necessary by the
universal howl that went up throughout
the entire west, the system of obstruc-
tion and inaction was continued in
business methods, there accumulated in
Washington an enormous number of land
cases. The proofs gathered there, upon
which action was delayed, ran into the
tens of thousands, and nearly two hun
dred thousand contests were lying there
at one time awainting action from the
department..
This stagnation worked great hardship
and injury to many thousands of spno-
cent settlers. 1t was in this condition
that the department was turned over to
the present ADMINISTRATION. Business
methods, common sense, and great dill
gence was applied to the evil, and in ad
dition to taking care of the current work
of the department, the great accumula-
ton was promptly disposed of, and to-
day instead of having to wait two years
years to get decision in contest it is
reached in ninety days.
In the days of Cleveland and Jeffer-
sonian simplicity, the issuance of a
patent was so uncertain and so far re-
moved, that but little speculation y"S
indulged IN rs to when it would occ, :,
Last week at the local land office, a
patent was received upon a proof made
there only ten weeks before. Nor is this
all, while the accumulated business in
herited from the former administration
has been cleaned up, and the current
work disposed of, the methods have been
greatly simplified and the costs connected
with proofs greatly reduced. in other
words the settlers instead OF being dealt
with as objects of distrnst, who needed
watching 70 prevent their stealing some
thing, have been treated under the law,
as public benefactors, rs worthy pioneers
in the good work of settling and sub

The C. & K. Canal.
The Great South Side Ditch
Sold under Trust Deed.
Litigation Ended.
A new Com pany to be Formed and
Thousands ofAdditionaiA Acres
to be Saved by Irrigation.

L. NJ. Rumsey, Of the Rumsey Manu-
featuring company, Chas Parsons, pres
ident Of the State Bank of st. Louis,
and George Clark, all of ST. Louis, with
their attorney, ]. F. Shafroth, of Denver,
attended the sale of the Colorado and
Kansas canal, under trust deed, here on
last Monday. The sale was made on
that afternoon, when the entire canal,
with all of its rights and franchises, was
sold for 10000 to Mr.. Clark.
This great car a., covering thousands
OF acres OF splendid fruit and agricultur-
al lands, was constructed in 1885 and 'S6,
with $4,000 acre capacity, from a point
about twelve miles west of Lamar, on
the south side of the Arkansas river to
Butte creek, in the extreme eastern part
OF Prowers county. Owing to litigation,
in which the company became involved
almost Immediately after the construc-
ton, the canal was lying idle: a plan of
great magnitude carried out, with only
promise of it's possibilities towards
developing the immense tracts under it.
During the fall Of 1890 high line
canal was surveyed by this company, and
work was done on it from the head gate
Of the The old canal to a point about two
miles east of the vest line of Prowers
county. This has q capacity to water
72,ooO acres of land and was designed to
take the place of the old canal, in
measure; but was also suffered to re-
main idle on account of the unsettled
condition of the company's affairs.
Mondays sale is the termination of the
litigation. By this sale the canal has
fallen into the hands of men whose bus
mess ability and extensive capital assure
for it future of great usefulness
A company will be formed this sum-
mer to manage and operate the ditch.
When that is done the new work will be
pushed to completion, and the Highline.
extended, or the old ditch, instead Of
dropping off at Smiths arroya, will be
continued on east. In either case,
hundreds of acres of choice lands will be
covered, that, with the old canal, is high
and dry, and not susceptible to irrigation.
The work now in hand, is to place the
old ditch in good working order, so that
it will carry water to water right owners
under it, for this season.
F. B. Koen's constructions outfit is
now at work at the head gate and will
work this way. The gate, which was
partially destroyed by fire last week by
the sparks of a passing engine, is being
repaired and improved under contract
made with P. S. Lynch.
E L. Koen has been appointed West
ern manager for the owners and be will
superintend the construction and oper-
alton of the canal. Parties desiring
water for the next year should apply to
him and make their arrangements in
time to take advantage of the great
benefits they can derive from the canal.
Mr.. Clark will probaly remain here a
month or more to carefully look over the
line, and become thoroughly posted in
regard to every detail connected with
| the canal.
