The Man In The Hole.

There was q man in our town
Who rushed along the street,
When suddenly he felt the world
Recede beneath his feet.
A teamster had delivered coal
And then pursued his way
He left the manhole open, so
There was the deuce to pay.
The man who hurried never saw
The yawning hole ahead;
He made some bitter comments as
He disappeared. It's said.
Now comes the moral Of the tale;
A cyclone from the West
Came down the street, as cyclones do
And never stopped to rest.
The cenl man and his team we're first
Tied into forty knots,
And then distributed in chunks
Der fifty vacant lots.
The street was wiped from end to end
And split up through the middle
Not one who walked in it was left
To dance or play the fiddle.
But he who hadn't seen the hole,
And so had fallen through,
Came out, when all was over, just
About as good as new.
Keep back the things thou wouldst say
When fate seems harsh with thee;
1t may turn out the other way,
So wait awhile and soc.

Reclalming make direct and specific
Arid appropriations for the
Lands storage of waters in the
mountain districts Of
California, Arizona, Colorado New Mex
leo, Wyoming and the rest, in not only
the interest of the people Of these states
but to the end Of direct revenue in the
wav Of a-sale of the lands so rendered
valuable, and Of subsequent taxation,
says the Wichita, Ks. Eagle. Sufficient
waters, for instance, can be stored at the
head waters OF the Arkansas river to
supply the lower valley in eastern Colo
RADIO and western Kansas with regular
and abundant flow of water for irriga
ton purposes during the crop season.
What is true Of the Arkansas valley is
true Of the valleys Of all the states and
territories named, very largely. Water
storage and storage by the government
through annual appropriations until all
that can be done in the way of reclama-
ton has been accomplished, is the only
safe, reasonable and effective policy.
The federal government, as such, for the
people, builds ietties, deepens harbors,
constructs levies and the like. So with
