A Condition and not a Theory.

The condition of those ranchmen
in this county, who are under the La
Junta and Lamar canal, is deplora-
ble Although the ditch has for the
past two weeks been carrying at the
head gate its full capacity, those men
have received no water, and have
been obliged to stand helplessly by
while the result of many weary
days of labor was being destroyed.
And in the meantime, the interest
upon the notes given for those "water
rights" is silently but surely accum-
ulating, and while the ditch company
can disregard its obligations, each
signer of a note will be held to a
strict accountability for their settle
ment, and payment will be enforced
with the aid of the sheriff when nee
essary. Where the responsibility for
this wretched state of affairs rests,
we will not at this time discuss, but
there must be something rotten to
make such condition possible. In
the meantime while so many are re-
joicing in the abundance of water,
and the hope it inspires, the condi-
ton of their less fortunate neighbors
should not be overlooked. They are
entitled to not only the sympathy of
the county, but any and all aid that
can be rendered to enable them to
obtain those rights they have SO
dearly purchased.

Non Decoration day Kit Carson
Post No. 50 G. A. X. and the Wo-
mans Relief Corps with some of the
citizens proceeded in procession to
the cemetery on the north side of
the river and held services over the
graves Of the union soldiers buried
there. A military salute was fired
over the graves by detail of com
rades under the command of Capt.
Cummings. The ladies furnished the
flowers that decorated the graves, al
though owing to the lateness of the
season it was difficult to obtain any.
The Cactus Club sang very appro-
riate memorial song. A committee
of the soldiers in the afternoon de-
corated the grave of Comrade Har-
court who lies buried in the cemetery
south OF Lamar.

private letter written by a resident

cation and study will give store OF

but already their grandure is beyond

The Herald and News does not agree
with the State that the use of type
setting machines should have had any
thing to do with making the award of
the public printing. The question is,
who was the lowest responsible bidder
for the work? The Bryan Company,
an entirely responsible business firm,
put in bid that was from s to 90 per
cent. lower than the Registers bid.
Bids had been advertised for by law.
In order to avoid accepting this bid the
Office of State Printer was rnade, and
the proprietor of the Register elected,
and the price to be paid fixed the same
as the figures in his bid. It means an
additional cost for the State printing
Of from $4,000 to "a, COCOA year.
There was no use making the office
OF State Printer. The contract had lust
as we'll been awarded to Mr.. Calvo in
the first instance with the higher bid,
It is virtually the same thing. Do the
people endorse this sort of economye
We suppose so, as it was doue by re-
formers.

The Greenville Democrat is trying to
raise a row because the city council
of Greenville gave the public printing
to the Greenville News instead of to
the Democrat, though it offered to do It
for less than the News, so it claims.
The Democrat sees great injustice in
this to the taxpayers. five remember
correctly it was about the first of this
year when the County Commissioners
of Greenville awarded the county ad-
vertising to the Democrat in the face
Of q lower bid by the News and the
Mountaineer, though they offered
greater publicity and lower rates. If we
remember correctly this act did not
outrage the goddess of justice who pre-
sides over the sauctum of the Demo-
crat. That was right and proper
thing according to the ideas of the
Democrat. "Oh! what a difference in
the morning." This is cruel, selfish,
old world AMI what prejudiced and dis
jointed glasses we do sometimes use.
But why should the Democrat ex-
pect anyt'.ing.or care anything about
the tax payers of the city? It's chief
business seems to be to fight the towns
and cities and keep alive passions
and prejudices. The ideas of right
and justice are very queer things. AS
rule some people are very much inter-
essed in the dear taxpayers and in saw
ing them money, when by so doing
they put money in their own pockets.
