Murder In Pueblo.

Friday night, few minutes after lC
o'clock, ex-Alder,nan W. j. Barndollar,
one of the best, known citizens living in
Pueblo, was held up and shot within 200
or 800 feet of his home, corner OF Nine
tesnth and Court streets, by holdups.
Death was instantaneous. He WIS shot
in the mouth. Mr. Barndollar was an
employe in the county treasurer's Office,
and had been at work in the office up TO
about 10 o'clock, and it il thought that
robber or robbers expected TO get the
KEYS away from him and rob the Office.
He evidently made fight to protect the
keys when he was shot.
Mr.. Barndolar has lived in Pueblo for
the past twonty- live years, and has been
engaged in the abstract and banking
business mp to few years ngo. He was
well liked and was regarded rs one OF
the best posted men on realty IN the
county. He leaves wife and three
children, and hosts OF friends who regret
his nntinely demise. .-PGeblo Opinion.
Mr.. Barndollnr was brother OF Mrs.
s. r. Herdmnn OF Rocky Ford, who has
the sympathy OF many friends in this Pc
culiarly sad bereavement.
The murder caused the greatest excite
ment in Pueblo and the most active ef-
forts are being made to detect the muir
derere. The county commissioners have
offered reward OF q 600 for the Arrest OF
the guilty parties, and an additional Ie-
ward will probably be offered by citizens.

The Water Question.

Fl. A. Sumner, state engineer, has nd
dressed communication to superintend-
ents of irrigation in regard to the water
supply. From the letter sent to 1rriga-
tion Superintendent Rankin we make
tho following extract:
Superintendents OF Irrigation:
GENrLEaIEN-As the irrigation season
approaches l wish to impress upon You
the importance of notifying all water
consumers through the water commits
sioners, and by other means, regarding
the necessity OF getting all bitches in
good shape to carry the waters to he dis
tributed.
The scarcity of snow in the mountains
short supply during the summer and
by making use OF the water early on such
lands and crops rs this is practicable,
while the supply is ample, u greater SER
vice will be obtained from the water and
more land irrigated.
j wish TO draw your attention to the
provisions OF the law, that f6rbids waste
OF water, or running an excessive amount,
and requiring ditch owners, when it can
not be beneficially used. to turn the water
back. This law should be scrupulously
enforced, when necessary.
The usual annual reports OF wnter
commissioners, on blanks furnished by
this Office, giving list OF bitches, length,
and amount OF water used, aud the acrc-
age OF each crop raised, should be cent
to this office not later than the middle OF
August.
In order to enable the Water Commits
sioncr to make an accurate and reliable
report, he should provide himself with q
memorandum book in which, during the
discharge OF his active duties during the
irriguting season, he will make such
memoranda Ms will enable him to make W
an accurate report later on.
The data can be much more accurately
obtained while ut work over tho district
than by waiting until tho end OF the
season and compiling tho san,e from
recollection or from outsidc testimony.
The headga,cs, rating fumes and Other
measuring devices, should he put in OK
cellont repair, and oil bitches not rated
should have the work attended to SO that
the water commissioner can make n just
and equitable distribution ms dccrced.
i hope the water commissioners vii
see the wi dom OF complying with thes'
suggestions and will acluiescs willingly

lyon can't stop liquor selling and it
is no use TO try." This is one argument
against the attempt to stop the acknowl.
edged evils Of the saloon business. Such
reasoning really means this: Liquor
dealers will continue TO violate law,
therefore let them have their way in de,
tlance of the wishes of the community
That is, continual persistence in law
breaking, is to be rewarded by amending
the laws TO suit the culprits. We don't
usesuch reasoning in regard to other yio'
lations OF law.

We believe it was Solomon who
wrote, "The love OF money is the root OF
MI evil" II he possessed prophetic Wis.
ion, and saw the liquor licensing system
OF the present day, We have one reason
for such sweeping declaration. Were
il possible to have n vote on the liquor
question with the money feature loft out,
saloons would be abolished in three
fourths of the United States ut the next
election. But good mon and women ure
influenced by the saving of few dollars
in taxes to inflict on n community busi-
neso which they know to be evil and on
ly evil. The saloon keeper does not pay
the license money. 1t comes out of the
pockets OF those who are
30 unfortunate as TO have taste for liq-
uors. Is it fair play to reduce our taxes
ut the expense OF the families OF those
little able to bear the extra burden Of
taxation thus thrown ON them.

In all matters of public enterprise n
few men must take the lead. The sugar
beet movement is no exception TO this
rule. 4 few philosophical citizens Of
Rocky Ford have spent considerable
money, and become responsible for much
more, in their efrorts to givo the farmers
the benefits Of n beet sugar factory. In
this direction they have purchased 1000
pounds of sugar beet seed, only n small
proportion of which has beeu engaged by
the farmers. While Rocky Ford hopes
to reap benefit from the establishment Of
sugar factory, the farmers OF the tribu.
tary country viii be the greatest benefi.
cinries. Now that expense has been in.
currcd and obligations contracted in or

be made. great lack Of appreciation will
