SAMPLE COPIES.

E THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE to those who are not subscribers
to the paper, but who should be interested
in it. We ask every one who receives a
copy to give it careful examination, and
compare it with other family weeklies. We
are sure they will find it better paper for
themselves and families than any other that
they can find. 1t isa superior paper in every
respect and constantly strives 10 lead all the
other publications in the country by the
higher quality of the matter it furnishes its
readers. 1t spends mere money in getting
up q paper of the highest possible class than
any other, and all matter which appears In
its columns is written especially for 1T. 1t
has no "boiler plate" stnff or syndicate
matter. 1t is bright live, able, progressive,
and independent. 1t serves no party, and
has no entangling alliances with any men
or faction. 1t aims only to represent the
loyal, working, progressive people of the
country, to tell the truth of history, and
champion the cause of the men whose valor
and blood made the country as great and
prosperous as it is.
The paper should be in every family, and
we ask all who read this to not only sub
scribe for it themselves, but to endeayor to
get others interested in it. 1t costs but 81
year-t,Uo cents a Week-and so is within
the reach of everyone. No other paper in
the country gives so much of the best read
ing matter for the money.

THE NEXT CONGRESS.

The interest in the composition of the
next Congress is intense. Upon radi-
cal change of its complexion from that
of the present body depends all hopes
of lifting the country out of the Slough
of Despond in which it was plunged by
the results of the elections of 1892.
To accomplish sucha change requires
continued, sustained and wisely-directed
effort all over the country. To under
stand this thoroughly it will be necessary
to 90 rather fully into details.

but one fact sticks out all the time, and
that is, that in the face of all the parade
Of force and threats, Americans con-

though there is much loud talk about
firing, no shot is fired to protect them.

The political revolution in South
Carolina continues to revolve. The
power Of the old aristocrats who have
ruled the State ever since the RevoIu-
ton, except during the few years of Gear
pet-bag" sway, seems utterly crushed,
and at last the "poor whites are on
top. All the clamor against Tillman,
all attempts to reorganize" in the
interest Of the old autocrats, have been
humiliating failures. Likewise Senator
Buffers bullying personal campaign
against Tillman. "Nigger domination
is scarecrow which only excites de-
risive laughter. At present it is esti-
mated that Tillman will get 90 votes in
the Senate against seven for Senator
Butler, and 102 votes in the House
against % for Butler; SO that he will
have practically walk-over for the
United States Senatorship. In the Con-
gressional Districts there is a general
high-mix, with both Republicans and
Democrats running double sets of can
didates in some, with Dispensary, New
Constitution, Free Coinage, and other
issues coming in to divide the voters A
colored diagram of the political situa-
ton in South Carolina would resemble
a crazy-quilt, though Tillmanism"
would be the strongly dominant color.

THE decision Of one Of the senate
majority to JON the minority, and the ar
rival of senator who had not been pres
ent before, and who was in favor Of leg
islation, has brought about change of
front and the senate has concluded to do
business. The resolution under which
the senate will operate forbids the intro
duction of bills but will allow action on
whatever the house may send up. Under
such circumstances tho session ought not
to be long, and its power for ill-advised
legislation will be slight compared to
what it would have been had the senate
proceeded to business at the beginning
Of the session.

The ENTERPRISE does not propose to
let the creamery project rest. The ben
efits Of such an addition to our home in
dustries is beyond question. Through
the creamery steady stream Of money
would flow to the farmers, furnishing
them ready cash the year round. Hence,
everybody in Rocky Ford should be in
terested in securing such an establish
ment-the farmers for the direct benefit,
and the business men for indirect results,
increasing the buying capacity Of their
customers and making collections cas-
ier. When the matter is correctly view
ed the sentiment of the community ought
to be unanimous for the early establish
ment Of a creamery.

Mr.. Crowley thinks that the senate
should go ahead and consider bills and
pass what they deem meritorious. Orig
inally he was opposed to the special ses-
sion, but the efforts made for an adjourn
ment without considering any measures
he did not think showed proper respect
for the gubernatorial office-saying moth
ing about the governor personally. Hence
legislation mentioned in the governors
call. He says that he lost caste with his
Popullst colleagues by voting for the
senate's compromise (the consideration
of only six bills), but that he will always
give the interests of the people the first
place, rather than the advancement Of
party measures.
Since the above was in type we have
received the following communication
from Mr.. Crowley:
"I have worked in season and out Of
season to get the Twin lakes reservoir,
having passed it through the house twice
and at this session by every vote in the
house. It was the second bill to pass,
and has been in the senate two weeks
and they still refuse to act on it.
The site for the reservoir is in peril and
il we do not secure it now there is no
hope of ever getting il, for the reason
that one or more companies are ready to
take possession rs soon as the state with
draws its men, who are now on the
ground and holding it. And, further, the
they can to get it for that ditch. The
state engineer says there is no water for
them unless they can get Twin lakes for
storage. My bill us passed. gives it to
the whole valley and not to any one ditch
or county. (See 81 Fl. b. No. -
Another thing: There is lobby from
Ieadville now in Denver trying to pre-
vent the passage of this act because four
or five wealthy men have summer resi-
dences there, and because forty or fifty
people go there to fish every summon.
Must 10000 people be left short of water
to accommodate 60 pleasure seekers?
Now I have done my duty, it is the
duty of every man in the valley to send a
petition to the senate, begging them to
pass this Just measure, and do it NOW.
1t will mean the difference between a
half or no crop and full crop under all
new bitches. I know that If our people
understood this as it is they would do
their part.
to pass all the road and bridge bills.
Well, what if they do? The fund from
which this is taken was given to this state
for internal improvements, and they are
specified as "roads, bridges, canals and
reservoirs You will never get legis-
lature together in this state that will not
have these same interests to look out for,
and as these improvements are needed
and the men pledged to work for them
let them pass. We are certain to get our
share in the $25,0O0 for the reservoir.
Senator Swink and myself have col
lected and laid before the house page
after page of information in regard to
this reservoir. We have talked in session
and out of session, until am called a
crank on irrigation. OF course the roads
and bridges could rest until the regular
session, but the reservoir can not. 1t will
then be to late for us.

IT is said that fall and winter irriga-
ton is an important branch Of farming
in the arid region which most farmers
neglect. Turn on the water and let it
soak well into the ground. Freezing
there the soil retains moisture far into
the spring, thus bridging over a possible
lack OF water in the bitches. Who Of the
readers Of the ENTERPRISE have tried
this and will give us their experience in
a half-column article?
Rocky Ford enterprise., 1894-02-08

THE years of time and the large sums
of money which Senator Swink has spent
in public-spirited work for the develope-
ment of the Arkansas valley ought to
have been a sufficient guarantee of his
devotion to the Twin Lakes project with
out a petition asking him to work for the
passage of the bill. The valley has no
stronger advocate nor more earnest and
effective worker.

COY. MATES LANE LEGISLATURE.
An Interesting Interview With Hon.
j. ii. Crowley.

Hon. J. H. Crowley spent last Satur-
day among his constituents in Rocky
Ford. He was fully loaded for all who
are disposed to criticise his course in the
legislature, and in an interview with the
EHrKRpRIsE stated his position as to leg
islative matters to be about like this:
He saws that all of the Questionable bills
those which called for extravagant ex-
penditures, or for any action injurious to
the state-have been killed in the house.
The appropriation bills which have passed
the house Mr. Crowley claims are prud-
ent and proper measures which ought to
be passed by the senate. The following
list comprises all the appropriations
which will be asked for by the House, ex-
cepting, of course, the expenses of the
legislature:

The finance committee of the senate
does not agree with Mr.. Crowley as to
the states ability to make the above ap-
propriations. They say: $50 far as we
have been able to Judge these measures
are equally meritorious, therefore We do
not deem it expedient at this time to con-
slider favorably a portion Of these bills to
the exclusion of the others. The excuse
offered for the passage Of these bills at
this time is not SO much the pressing de-
mand for,the measures themselves as to
give labor to the unemployed. If funds
were at our disposal we would be glad to
render assistance in this way, but as
there is no money available and we ques-
ton the propriety Of exchanging the war
rants belonging to these funds in the
manner provided for, and believing that
no such emergency exists as contemplat-
ed in the constitution with reference to
extraordinary sessions, we prefer to leave
the various matters referred to in these
bills to the tenth general assembly for
consideration" Which indicates that
the senate will probable pass none of the
appropriation bills.
