Tentative efforts are again being
made in favor of somewhat shorter
skirts, but no one can make an aDso-
lutte prophecy concerning them. As the
matter stands at present in the hands
of fashion designers and specialists, the
travelling and walking costumes have
the skirt at the back so well mounted
and arranged over a close foundation
skirt as to give the effect Of a slightly
trained model without it's former in
convenience. This, however, is excep-
tional, and the majority of new tailor
styles, or those in present use, have a
skirt which continues to sweep the
ground at the back.
The medium weight but closely woven
woods are the very best fabrics to select
for utility suits for the winter. The
greens, browns and dark-plum and
wine colors present a most attractive
range Of beautiful shades this season.
The lightest and deepest tones, with a
number of intermediate shadings, are
alike popular. The new Russian blue
is a superb color, and the very hand :
some dye called Roman blue is worn
alike by matron and maid and by
blonde and brunette. Some of the Eng
hsh-made costumes of Russian-b blue
cloth are elegantly trimmed with mink
fur. the overdress of blue cloth thus
adorned, the skirt, of pale biscuit-col-
ored cloth, almost hidden by the long
redingote, but showing a skirt border

1t has already been discovered that
the pipings and applique designs ar
ranged on fancy capes and jackets cut
and wear badly, and give the garment
a worn appearance before it's time. This
applies not alone to the medium but
the higher-priced wraps SO decorated
But where roll of silk braid outlines
the applique designs this trouble seems
to be averted.
Some of the more expensive wooden
dress fabrics are so woven as to give
an effect of a surface alternately plain
and corded, the heavy reps looking like
a tiny tuck taken in the cloth as mar
row as it could be stitched. although
no stitching is visible. This materia.
is used for entire costumes, jackets and

The farmers under the Amity ca
nal have been irrigating their canta-
loupes this week with water brought
from the reservoirs, forty miles north
west Of here. This is the first exper-
iment OF this kind made in this Sec
tion of the state and it has thorough
" demonstrated the practicability OF
using storage waters, and has inbued
the new settlers with feeling OF Sc
curity in regard to their farming in
the future. Had this water not been
stored, the cantaloupe fields would
now be exhausted from lack Of moist
ure, as the river has been dry for sew
eral weeks. With the use of this
water, however, the fields will be
kept green and will produce melons
until frost comes. All the reservoirs
Of the Great Plains Co. will no doubt
be filed this winter, making an abund.
ance Of water for next year practice

That every Western State needs ir-
rigation is conceded. Those sections
which have tried it have simply DEM
onstrated the necessity for the utili-
zation OF the entire water product Of
the State, il that State is to reach its
full development. This utilization Of
the entire water product Of the State
means the construction OF reservoirs,
as there is no river, not reservoired,
but that some time during the year
wastes large quantities Of surplus
water. 1t is also generally conceded
that private capital cannot and never
will utilize all the water of any State.
There then remain to be considered
the States themselves and the Nation
al Government as the only agencies
qualified to create a comprehensive
reservoir system in the West. In the
first place, this work is distinctly
interstate in character, and is there
fore less properly State than Nat
ional enterprise. In no States are
all the streams confined to the limits
of those States. Wyoming for exam
pie, is the fountain head OF streams
flowing in all directions, whose waters
pass through or border upon no less
than twenty other States or Terrific
ries. This is true to a less degree in
Colorado. No reservoir can be built
in either Of these States which will
not influence the flow Of water in
other States.
Another strong reason why the Gen.
eral Government should construct
reservoirs lies in the fact that it
would be improving its own; that is,
its reservoir building would make
salabls its now arid land. The States,

The normal conditions Of the aver
age farmer throughout the East Is
one Of inquiry as to weather condi-
tions. His face is upturned to the
SKY, he watches the appearance Of the
clouds and asks anxiOusly: win this
rain hold OF for = day more?" or, Il
am afraid these are only wind clouds, !"
as the case may be. He must wait
for rain in order to pillow or to plant,
or he cannot pillow or plant because Of
rain. The greatest proof OF the value
Of irrigation lies in the fact that no
farmer who has once practiced it, is
ever willing 10 change to farming
under conditions where he is depend
ent upon natural and unevenly dis
tributed rainfall. The farmer who
has his moisture supply under his con-
troll, knows what he can do, and goes
ahead and does it with almost as
much certainty Of results as the con-
tractor projects and builds his house.
The satisfaction to the farmer Of
knowing that the labors OF half a
season will not be rendered void be-
cause Of week OF untimely drouth, is
one that cannot be fully appreciated
eIcpt by those who have tried both
systems.
The ordinary farmer is looked upon
largely as man who plods along
without responsibility, worry or
thought. Asa matter OF fact, his
worries, where he is depenpent upon
the elements, are constant, and far in
excess Of those OF many business men.
Never season goes by that he does
not hope and pray for rain at some
time to save some partially matured
crop. or figet and stew about in impa-
thence and fear lest his crop already
made shall be ruined before IL can be
harvested or cured. The brow of the
irrigator is sure to have many less
lines and burrows across it than that
OF the farmer who does not know the
control Of water in his agricultural
operations.

join in wishing them a long and
pleasant voyage on life's tempestu-
GUS sea.
We propose being in sufficient
bloomers at all times to speak what
we believe to be right and just.
We are strictly against recharter-
ing the town Of Camden, and just.
as strongly in favor Of woman's suf-
frage. We are opposed to incor-
poration for several reasons that
must appeal to the moral-minded,
christian people of the county. If
whisky was sold at Camden, there
would be $500 spent for it by the
people of Benton County where
$1.00 is spent now, for the reason
that it could be bought by the
drink, and when they can get 10 or
25 cents ahead hundreds of men
would squander it on drink and let
their wives and children actually
suffer for the necessaries of life.
The argument about the minor not
getting it will not hold water or
whisky, either). They could get
it, and would get it. But this is
not the only bad feature OF open
saloons. AS a rule the saloon has
a gambling den, and what can be
more demoralizing that den OF
drunken, cursing, carousing, black
garding men? Who is going to
forbid the young men and boys OF
the town and county from entering
one Of these degrading places
Will the saloon-keeper do it? No
On the contrary, he will use all his
influence to get them in. And The
boys from the country would be
fined enough to run the corpora.

legalizing the sale of whisky! Fol

our mothers, sisters and wives
an opportunity, and the whisky evi

"A privilege tax" says Democ-
racy, Except in a few cases, is a
dangerous thing for Democrats to
NEEDLE with. With these few ex-
ceptions, it smacks too much Of I'M
American Republican methods and
has no ring of sound Democracy.
Liquor and tobacco are adjudged
as liable to a privilege tax by al
most every nation of the earth, but
a privilege tax imposed upon the
ordinary business and occupations
of every day life is confined almost
entirely to despotic and monarchial
governments. In a large number Of
the most prosperous States, as New
Jersey, Connecticut, Ohio, Mary
land, Massachusetts, Illinois, Iowa,
Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin and
some others, privilege taxes have
been almost entirely abolished.
When a privilege tax goes beyond
luxuries and a very limited number
Of business callings, it antagonizes
the bedrock foundations Of Demo-
craticprinciples and should bedealt
out with as much care as a doctor
observes IN administering physic to
2 very sick child"
