SUNSET DITCH COMPANY.

An Enterprise That viii Contribute to the
Material Enterprise Of Winslow.
Last Friday afternoon, In company
with X. @. Creswell. Y. T. La Prade, j.
x. Woods and j.. p. Burdstt, we drove
over to the reservoir site on the north
side Of thu Little Colorado river, located
and being developed by the Sunset Ditch
company. says the winslow Mail. The
site contains about $50 acres Of land,
when fully developed. The leves, under
construction at the present time, will
cover $50 acres to an average depth Of
five feet.
The site Is below the level Of the river.
and Is to be fed by a ditch tapping the
river some two miles above. II Ia q
cheap. Ibut safe proposition, nature hav-
Ing performed the major part Of the
labor. The only thing left for man to
do, was to cut q ditch. put In q headgate
and raise n side Of the reservoir by a
levee. This Is now being done by the
Sunset Ditch company In a substantial
manner. and will be completed before
the holidays.
According to the estimate OF County
Surveyor Frost, who has had considerable
experience In such work. the present
levee, which Is to be about seven feet
high In the lowest places, will give an
average depth Of five feet of water over
$50 acres OF land. This amount Of water.
In conjunction with what can be used In
the early part OF the season. from the
river direct, will give three feet Of water
for irrigable purposes to 1000 acres,
which Is more than sufficient to insure
q good crop. Every foot added TO the
heighth Of the levee will increase the
depth Of the water a foot. The level of
the reservoir Is twelve feet below the
river where the ditch taps 1t. 30 that
the area Of the reservoir can be nearly
doubled as well rs the depth of the water,
by raising the levee which San be done at
a nominal cost, In comparison to the
land to be reclaimed.

THE LIMITED DOING BIG BUSINESS.
General Passenger Agent Black OF the
Santa Fe Is authority for the statement
that santa lie limited trains will be put
on much earlier next year than wa the
case this year aud has been the case since
the limited service was insugurated
three years ago.
A reason for this Is found In the fact
that for over q month preceding the es-
Establishment OF the service last Tuesday.
November Z, the Santa Ne was compelled
to run a or more extra Pullman sleep
ers daily on the overland train from Chi.
cago 10 the Pacific coast.
The outlook for California travel this
year Is. particularly bright. and the
Santa fe officials expect the success Of
the limited service 10 outclass that OF
previous years. The santa Ne has the
shortest route into Southern California,
and " the bulk OF the tourist travel is 10
Los Angeles and other points In the
southern territory, that road has an I'D
vantage In the competition for Califor-
mia business.
The fact that extreme cold weather
has not yet made It's appearance in the
east, and travel to California has been
extensive seems 10 be another indication
Of general prosperity. A winter sojurn
In Southern California Is an expensive
luxury.
1t is believed that the limited trains
will be run daily next winter. The
opening Of the Santa Ne line into San
francisco will have something to do
with this.

MORE COMPOSITE CARS NEEDED.

order with the Pullman company ut Chi
cage for the construction Of four elabo-
rate composite cars. The cars will be
delivered some time In December and
will be used on the California limited
trains.
The Jars will be similar TO the COM
p0site cars nov In use on the santa fe.
The forward end will be arranged for
baggage. and the remainder Of the Car
will be divided into smoking and read
ing, buffet, barber shop and bar COM
partments. Zach Of the four cars will
cost In the neighborhood OF 5000.
As soon n turned out Of the Pullman
shops, the cart will be brought to Topeka
to be equipped with the Axle electric
lighting apparatus.
The Santa Fe is also arranging for
the building Of q number Of new chair
cars. similar to the i've ordered built
at the shops in Topeka some time ago.
The last Of the five will be completed
within two weeks, and II Is expected
that the order for additional chair cars
will be placed Immediately afterwsrd.
These will also be built at the Santa Fe
shops at Topeka. The additional cars will
have wide v~estibules, and will DO elsbo-
rately finished and furnished.
The Q equipment now In sight Is a
part Of the plan Of the santa Fe com.
pany TO replace all Anticipated passen-
ger cars.

SUPREME COURT DECISION.
Refusal to Interfere in Murderer
Howard CIifOrd's Case

The United States Supreme Court today
announced It's refusal to interfere in the
case of Edward Clifford, under sentence of
death in Hudson county, NJ, for murder
committed in 1895. The case came to this
court on an appeal from denial of a writ
of habeas corpus by the United States cir
cult court for the district of New Jersey.
Clifford has been under sentence OF death
three times. The Supreme Court directed
that its mandate issue Immediately.
The Supreme Court rendered opinions in
two cases involving private land grants in
New Mexico. both opinions being by Jus
tice Peckham. The first case was the claim
of S. Endtcott Peabody In the Vallecito
grant of 114,000 acres near Oto Caiente
and the other that Of ]. Francisco Chavez
to a grant Of 5000 acres in Valencia county
near Torreon. Both grants were made by
the provincial authorities of New Mexico
under Mexican rule, and both were declared
by the court of private land claims to be
invalid, on the ground that the granting
authority was inadequate. The opinion
handed down today aff1rms the opinion of
the lower court, and is adverse to the
claimants.
In the case of Fred. Bordes against the
First National Bank Of Hawarden, Iowa
the court decided that writ of certiorari
could not be granted in a case otherwise
subject to such writ until the case had
been finally passed upon by the court be-
low. The appeal in this case was therefore
dismissed.

To BE USED AS COMMITTEE ROOMS
House Likely to Agree to Seuate,s
Division of Former Library Space.

1t is probable that as soon as Congress
reasse nbles resolution will be passed by
the House to concur with the Senate in the
division between the two houses of the
space in the Capitol building vacated by
the Library of Congress. The Senate de-
sires to divide the space equally by line
drawn east and west, and will convert its
share into committee rooms.
The committee rules Of the House has
the matter under consideration, and Speak
er Henderson, Mr.. Payne and Mr.. Dalzen
have inspected the place. 1t was found
that fourteen committee rooms could be
made for the use of the Senate and four
teen for the House. The additional rooms
are badly needed by both houses, and 1t is
thought that a proposition to establish
them will be favorably received.
When the Library Of Congress moved out
it was stipulated IN an appropriation bill
that the space should be used for no pur-
pose whatever until Congress should pro-
vide. In the last session it was proposed
to locate the Capitol restaurants In the
space, but the plan was not carried out
Another proposition for the utilization of
the space is to establish a reference IL
brary as branch of the Congressional Lii
brary. This has been recommended by
Librarian Putnam in recent report to
the House and Senate, and published in The
Star

FIRM ALL ALONG THE LINES
Letters to the Republican Committee on
Literature
Strong Contrast to Views Expressed
at the Opening of the 1896
Campaign.

The letters received from various parts of
the country by the committee appointed TO
take charge of the campaign literature for
the republican national committee indicate
very strongly the temper Of the republic
can party and the people generally through
out the country. A great many letters have
been received, and the tone of them all is
in striking contrast with the character of
the correspondence at the opening of the
ls9o campaign, when conditions were un-
settled and the people We're beset with
doubts. At the beginning of the 1896 cam
paign many letters We're received express
ing apprehension or protesting against the
strong position being taken on the stump
and in the literature for the single gold
standard. Advice looking TO the evasion of
the money issue was Very common at that
time.
In the letters received by the new COM
mittee on organization and campaign liter
ature making suggestions as to the ca M
paign for 1900 there has not as Vet been
an intimation that there should be any sort
of evasion. Every suggestion on this sub
1ect has been In praise of the attitude Of
the party managers in boldly and firmly
coming out for the continuance permanent
ly of the gold standard, and has advised
that the fight on this issue be made boldly
on the stump and In literature everywhere
without any apology.
About all suggestions received favor the
management Of the campaign in the same
manner in which that of '96 was managed,
and that the attitude of the republican
party on the subject of expansion be main
tanned just as 1t no" is, with the purposes
of the administration well defined, and no
commitments beyond what are warranted
by actual developments. Sound money,
prosperity and progress is echoed from
every quarter as the cry upon which the
republicans must depend for success, and
there is no advice received that does not
contemplate boldness and aggression.
The meeting of the committee to form
ulate general plans win be held soon as
Senator Shoup returns from his trip TO the
territories

SHOWED RARE NERVE.
Navai Apprentice Gaibert wig-wag-

Narnt Apprentice Gafbert Wig-Wag-
Sed While Exposed to Enemy's Fire.
Secretary Long has issued general
order commencing the gallantry of several
enlisted men on the monitor Monadnock
in the Philippines. r. Galbert. an appren-
tice of the first class, is awarded a medal
of honor for extraordinary neroism and
sallantry under fire of the enemy during
a joint effort of the army and men of the
Monadnock to dislodge a force of insur-
gents from the mountains in the rear of
the town of Cebu.
Naval Cadet Mcintyre OF the Monadnock
reported that Falbert was with the at
tacking force and sent and received COM
munications between them and the army.
So heavy was the enemy's fire that the
attacking force was compelled to remain
under cover, yet Galbert stood exposed for
iCng periods, in order to receive and send
messages. His wig-wag flag was perfect
target, and shots struck all around him.
yet he never flinched, hesitated or made a
mistake.
Galbert was in such danger that the Off
Ger in command of the advanced forces
advised him to stop, but he insisted on
keeping at his post. Every army officer
present spoke to Cadet Mcintyre in high
praise of the apprentices bravery
In indorsing the report, Rear Admiral
Watson wrote that the action of Galbert
as quite on an equality with that per-
formed by Sergt. ]. H. Quick of the Marine
Corps, at Guantanamo"
The Secretary of the Navy has also COM
mended Chief Quartermaster C. Boylan
and j. L. Craig, apprentice of the first
class, of the Monadnock's crew for their
zeal and ability In the same engagement.
