INJUNCTION REFUSED.
Judge Cook SustainS The County
Election Board.

Circuit Judge Cook has notified
the local attorneys of his decision
in the injunction case of II. ]. Tate
against the Christian county Elec-
tion Board. He refuses the iniunc-
tion and the Board will not be or
dered to re-convene and count the
Illegal votes at the Court House.
Mr.. Tate, the contestant, has since
been elected to the place of city tax
collector, paying $500, and will of
course not push the matter any
further. The decision of Judge
Cookwas no surprise to the public,
as nobody contends that the election
of the precinct was held according
to law the only question was the
right of the Board to throw out in
valid votes. Judge Cook decides
that the Board is not compelled to
count such votes, having the au-
thority to examine before canvass

OPEN SHED.
Loose Tobacco Men Have a
Scheme on Foot.
plan to Have an Open Shed Mar
ket and Buy From
Wagons.

The loose tobacco dealers and the
factory men of the city have started
very important movement, look
ing to the adoption of the system of
buying tobacco from wagons inssan
open market.
This plan is followed in Ovens
boro with great success and has re-
Gently been established in Clarks-
vile.
Mr.. Mcintyre, the livery man on
Ninth Street, proposes to build a
large "open shed" for the auction
sales, where wagons can gather
every day and let the loose dealers
all be on hand and meet in competi-
ton, bidding upon the same sam
pies. The advantage to the farmer
would be that he could always be
assured of ready market and the
best market price, even when he
brought his tobacco without having
sold if.
There is a growing disposition
among the tobacco raIsers to sell
loose and there is a trying demand
for such a market as is proposed,
in order to meet the fierce competi-
tion in Clarksville.
Buyers from the Tennessee mar
ket are canvassing territory in sight
of Hopkinsville and leaving nothing
undone to divert from it's natural
market as much as possible of the
present crop.
Cummings, Eggleton ; 81 Co. are
taking the lead in the proposed new
departure and steps have already
been taken to insure the success of
the enterprise.
Definite plans will be formulated
within few days.

Tuesday evening and the society in
addition to very pleasant meet
ing was most Hospitality enter
tanned by Mr.. and Mrs. Taudy.
About IL or 20 member were pres

very interesting.
Mr.. Jas. O., Cook read a selection
from Richard Carvel and this was
followed by Mr.. h. w. Harrison $
excellent review of Winston Church
ills book, from which Mr.. Cook had
read. Mr. Harrison's paper was
prepared with fine literary iudg-
ment and his discussion of the
merits of the story was most inter-
esting.
Mr.. W, r. Fowler's historical
sketch of Lafayette was not only a
paper of literary excellence, but his
facts were arranged with attention
to historical accuracy, and the pa
per was read in a most graceful
and entertaining manner. Mr.
Fowler paper was one of the best
yet read before the society.
Mr.. Chas. NJ. Meacham read a
brief paper discussing the subject
of Tramps.
The society then adjourned to
the dining room and partook of a
delightful supper, a most appre-
ciated feature of the evenings pro-
gram.
Mr.. L. Mccartney was present
by invitation and asked the CO.
operation of the society in the mat
ter OF arousing an interest in mu-
raj decorations for the public
school rooms. 1t was argued that
works of art aud other pictures ap-
propriate to the studies taught
would greatly add to the cheerful
ness of the school room and at the
same time prove of lasting benefit
to the pupils. An hour or more
was devoted to a discussion of this
subject and a committee was APP
pointed to confer with Supt. Nc

The assumption that the government would lose large amount of money
 through the irrigation of the arid lands
 at public expense, is gratnitous. The initial cost of the undertaking. it is
 quite true. would be heavy. But the
 government would be able to secure
 quick reimbursement for all its expen-
 dItnres in this direction by the sale of
 lands to settlers at prices greatly in ex-
 cess of those which the lands would
 bring without irrigation.
 In point of fact. the greater propor-
 ton of these lands ara practically
 worthless without water for irrigation,
 and wafer for irrigation can be obtain
 ed only by the establishment of exten-
 sive and comprehensive irrigation sys-
 tems, the magnitude of which IS quite
 beyond the grasp of fprivate enterprise, and which are possible only under some general system directed and controlled by the national government, excercis- lng the right of eminent dof1aIn. and controlling the source of supply and the avenue of distribution. Govern men tirrigation is preferable to irrIea- ton und private auspices, princlpaT- ly for the reason that government irri- gation could be inaugurated on 8 scale of magnitude and comprehensiveness' impossible to private enterprise, even under the moat favorable conditions conceivable.
 Although the adoption of compre- hensive system of government irri .a- ton would involve a comparatively large lnital ontlay, the ultimate cost to the government Would be nothing; for, as stated above, the lands could be sold to settlers at prices sufficient to reim- bnrse the government for all moneys. together with interest thereon, expend- ed in the installation of irrigation sys- tems. More than this, the government could provide for the cost of mainten- ance in perpetuity. by charging fixed rate for the water furnished. which would do away with any complaint as to "free irrigation.
 The alleged hostility of the eastern farmer to the irrigation of the arid lands of the West probably has little or no real existence n fact. 1t certain. Iy has none in reason. This is great and growing country. It's wants and it's needs are rapidly expanding. its is increasing, and it's ex ports to foreign lands are steadily g,ow- ing larger. If all the arid lands of the West were placed under irrigation and were occupied by industrious farmers, the resulting competition would infilct little appreciabls injury upon the east ern agriculturist, so trIfiing would it be in comparison to the vast agricult- uIal resources of the entire country. Moreover, when these irrigated public lands have once been placed upon the the eastern buyer has the same chance to acquire them as has the western fafrrer-the farmer Tn the arid regions. All will be placed upon level in that regard. The western farmer can have no special privileges granted to him by the government; he cannot monopolize the choice irrigated lands so thrown upon the market. irrigation of it's own arid lands thus becomes a national, not merely a sectional benefit-a benefit vast in it's outreaching effects and of value to the whole coun. try.-Los Angeles Times.

THE NORTHERN NORMAL.
It's LocatiOn-Range of Studies
 Will Open September II.

Tho NorthOrn Arizona Normal School opens it's first term at Flag staff September II. This, the first high-grade educational institution m Northern Arizona, will start it's work under the most favorable cir. cumstances. The school building is architecturally beautiful and is located Tn one of the most scenic spots of ascenic region. It is more than ample in size and has been fit. ted up for the use of the school in a manner that will conduce most effectually toward convenience in all departments.
 The range of studies to be pur- sued in :he Dew institution is to be broad one, for, by the Act creat- ing it, there must be maintained preparatory and high school Cours- es. The Normal course will be 8 parallel ono with that pursued at the older school at Tempe and com pletion of the prescribed work will secure diploma granting life li- censo to teach il. any of the schools of Arizona. There will be, as well |, academic work qualifying the stu dent for entrance into any of the universities of the UnIon.
 This class of instruction has been the life study ot the Principal, Prof. A. N. Taylor, and the Board of Education confidently endorses him to the favor of the people of North ern Arizona. First among the as. sistants IS Miss Frances H. Bury, a graduate of the State Normal of California, at San Jose, and for two years one of the most valued as- sistants at the Normal School of Arizona, Tempe.
 To the citizens of Northern Ari. zona it is not necessary to exriate upon the many advantages offered by Flagstaff for the work of the new Normal School. Phe location is most nearly central to the settled parts of the northern territory. The climate is all that could be de- sired. The location of the School among tho great piaas. is sn espe- cially salubrious one.

"Free Irrigation.

The Pittsburgh Dispatch. in re- cent article, discoursing of what it Is pleased to term 'irrigation at public expense" advances some plausible ar- guments against the irrigation of the arid lands of the United States under government auspices. These argu- ments, though plausible, are onesided and untenable. They are made from the imaginary standpoint of the eastern farmer. and it is assumed
 that he will necessarialy be injured by
 the development nf the arid regions of the Great West. It is further assumed
 that the government will, of necessity,
 be put to enormous expense in the bringing of these "arid lands' under irrigation. The article proceeds as follows.
 Naturally. the people of the seml-
 arid regions of the West, and those who are prepared to settle in those, or the arid regions, are favorable to govern. ment appropriations for irrigation, as Is indicated by the writer Of a special article. Just as naturally farmers in other sections. East, South and West
 are bitterly opposed to the idea. They OppOse it because they are convinced
 they could not compete Tn any market with the farmer who has his lands ir- rigated free.
 Agriculture in the arid and semi- arid regions. with irrigation, is the ideal of farming. Crops are as nearly under control as it is possible to have them. Much better results can be ex. pected than where rainfall has to he depended upon for moisture, and there IS never any washing away of the rich soil from the surface. Of course, if the water must be paid for, 1t will ab- sorb the surplus profit, but if the gov ernment gives those regions free irriga ton they will be able to produce much more cheapiy than the rural regions of Pennsylvania or Ohio.
 "Fais country is an exporter of agri- cultural products, and 1t is claimed that while thls is so it would he unjust for the government to irrigate lands to create surplus production, thereby lowering prices or driving less fortunate farmers out of business. It is conceded by all that irrigation wIll intimately make the arid wastes productive, but 1t is argued, not without justice, that private enterprise will provide the necessary works as rapidaly as a market is developed for the additional product. This vlew is not agreeable to those who are interested in having their lands ir- rigated at public expense; but it Is like, ly to prevail on account of the vested interests in lands not to irrigated and the private capital al. eady invested in Irrigation reservoirs. canals and ar tesian wells"
 In this last sentence the Pittsburgh paper seems 10 be Iaboring under the total delusion that present owners Of arid lands-lands not public or uTiap- propria1ed-sre asking and expectihR government irrigation for their hold ings. Nothing could he further from the truth.

Forest and Reservoirs.

That the preservation of tho for ests of the arid region is a duty distinctly belonging to the General Government seems 10 be a general opinion. Large appropriations have been made for the surveys oi proposed forest reservations, thou sands of square miles of forest land have been reserved, and ways and means for tor forest preservation are now being discussed and con- sidered. One Of the strongest ar guments which IS advanced show ing the importance of forest pre- servation 8 the influence which forests are known to have in con serving moisture. tho forest acting like a great sponge which takes up rainfall and then allows it to grad ually seep away,supplying streams, brooks, and springs
 Inasmuch as the commercial val ne of these forests is comparatlv C. ly insignicant. except for furnish- ing fuel and rough timber. tBe wa fer question is really the impof. tant one. Here. then. we have tho Government through its adminis- tratfon of forests, practically spend ing money to store water and con'- serve the flow of streams. Why therefore is It not proper Govern. nnent function to spend mo"oy for building works which shall artifi- cialiy store water, as the forests do naturally? Undoabtodiy the pres ervatinn' of the forests IS a highly question. and especially in the West, and the Gov ernment, IS the proper agency to insure such preservation, but tbe prIncipal ar guments which can be brought for ward in support Of the policy, ap- ply with increased tofce to Govern ment constru"tioh of reservoirs.
