Tho State Lands.

The people of the Arkansas valley
will not agree with the recommenda-
ton of Governor Waite that none of
the state lands be sold under any cir
cumstances.
The state owns large tracts of the
very best land in the valley, and but
small proportion of it is being cul-
tivated, for the reason that no one is
willing to buy water for it, and fence
and improve it, unless they can have
some assurance that they can in the
future obtain title at a reasonable
price. The state has no right TO act
the dog in the manger in this matter.
This part of the state is purely agri-
cultural, and its prosperity depends
upon the development of its soil.
Every acre of land that is put into
cultivation enhances to some extent
the property around it. 1t is the
clear duty of the state to assist and
not retard development here. 1t can
do that by selling small tracts at fair
prices to actual settlers-to those
who wish to apply water to the land,
and put it under cultivation. By SO
doing, it will not only assist materi-
ally in the development of the valley,
but it will enhance the value of its
own property, as well as that of
others. If the state is to doggedly
hold to every acre of the land it con-
trolls in this valley, and not offer in
ducements to have it become produc-
tive, then its ownership is to us
great misfortune. 1t might as well
be in the hands of other spectators,
who would sit down and wait for the
valley to develop and prosper. and
thereby make their holdings valuable

after shedding bitter tears over the
weakness and wickedness Of these
latter days, went of by himself, and
took the oath of Office before a JUS
tice Of the peace.
The facts as developed are, that
Goody kuntz before the election gave
a written pledge to N. S. Hurd, then
deputy insurance commissioner, that
in consideration of his support, he
would if elected, reappoint him to
the same Office.
The deal was arranged by that
prominent populist, Herb George,
and was approved by most of the IN
surance men of Denver, who wanted
Hurd retained in the Office. Hurd
kept his part of the compact. AL
though before radical republican,
he worked early and late for Goody-
kuntz, and very effectively as the
Arapahoe returns show.
But when the returns were all in,
Mr. Goodyk ykuntz found that the deal
had been unnecessary, and that he
would have been elected without the
aid Of Hurd or his friends. Populist
influences hostile to Herb George
and Hurd got control of the new
auditor, and he repudiated his pledge
and appointed another man to the
head of the insurance department.
MIR. Hurd and his friends, and Mr..
George were wroth, and have given
the whole deal away.
Republicans are sorry to see the
new administration start out under
such circumstances, but are not she'd
ding any tears over the discontinue
of Hurd-they are unanimously of
the opinion that he gets about all he
deserves.
