It was remarked by many p resent at the Columbus banquet who ha heard Mir. Bryan on other occasions that this was the best speech he ever delivered, not excepting his speech at the Chicago convention. One of his happiest hits, deqiares the National Watchman, was when he said that the few who now wanted to "get off" the Chicago plat form were the men who never were Ion" the Chicago platform, and in answering those who charged that the Democratic party was like a good father who did not disinherit or disown the frst-born simply because other children were born into the family; that the party is large enough to take care of issues as they arise, and would solve all prob lens, testing them by the principles laid down by the fathers. The spon- taneity and continuity of the applause throughout Mir. Bryan's address, and the other addresses, and particularly at mention of such names as Bryan, Towne, Williams, Teller, Tarvin and Lentz, demonstrated that Bryanism and silver are stronger to day in the Buckeye state than they were in 1896, and it is safe to say that nothing less then the grossest of treachery and the basest of bribery can prevent Ohio sending a delegation of forty six to the next national convention pledged to the renomination of MT. Bryan and the reaffirmation of the Chicago plat form,

ThE position of county supervisor is one of great delicacy. He is called upon to equalize the valuation of his neighbours property as well as his own, and this sometimes causes feel ing. In Tucson the other day Ben Heney of the Frontier felt that he had grievance when he was raised and offered to sell his property for less than the assessed valuation. Getting no offer, he published the following ::
 Well, If the Board will not buy maybe they will sell. We have pool organized and
 we make them this offer: we will purchase their assessable property in Pima county for double the valuation they pay taxes on. This takes them all in. or any single one of them. The offer Is open till Dec. s1 next.

IRRIGATION AND POLITICS.

State Cessicn Declared to Be Dangerous
 Proposition.
 While the question of irrigation in the West is one far outside of politics, every man, woman and child of an arid region realizing the necessity for and the depend ence upon water supply. Yet the editor of that sterling sheet, the Wichita Eagle, looks deep down into the subject and sees danger ahead for any party which is misled into adopting certain line of national policy affecting the arid lands of the West. The Eagle says;
 Primarily there is no party politics in the proposition of irrigation, yet there is phase of it appearing in the late Trans-Mississippi convention which might lead into partisanship, and to the detriment of the Repub.i- can party in the western states. The proposition to have the general gov ernment grant tLe public lands of the several western states and territories, to be disposed of by them for the rais- ing of money to build reservoirs, if adopted, will prove disastrous. The states and territories, through the pol iticians, in their respective legislative bodiess will inevitable lose their lands and wake up later to the fact that they have no water stored, nor money with which to build reservoirs.
 ''The general government might safely permit these states and territo- ries to lease these public lands for pas turege and the like, and to employ the proceeds in constructing reservoirs, but the land should be held saeredly i for the future settler, for the farmer, in legal subdivisio ms of quarter sec tions. The experience in state land grants for public improvements is all in one direction, that is, the lands have been squandered with DO benefits ac- cruing to the people.
 1.-The federal government, as such, for the people, builds jetties, deepens harbors, constructs levies and the like. So with this irrigation and reclam ation of arid lands,
 t'The government should make di- rect and specific appropriations for the storape of waters in the mountain dis tricts of California, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming and the rest, in not only the interest of the people of those states, but to the end of di- rect revenue in the way of sale of the lands so rendered valuable, and of subsequent taxation. Sufficient wa ters, for instance, can be stored at the headwaters of the Arkansas river to supply the lower valley in eastern Col orado and western Kansas with regu- lar and abundant flow of water for irrigation 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 reclamation has been accomplished, is the only safe, reasonable and effective policy"

WE advise Senator Burrows and the other republicans who have been giving aid and encouragement to the enemies of the ad- Epinistration to take fresh look about the political horizon. "Anti-expansion" is the last ditch of the old time foe of the repub- lican party. Now is the time for good re- publicans to line up in defense of the ad- ministration and of the honor of the coun- try.-EPhoenix Republican.
 And we advise (siHce advice is the fashion) the Republican to line up with the balance of the territory in favor of government aid for storage reservoirs, more especially that for the benefit of the Indians on the Sacaton reservation. Congress will be ap- pealed to the coming winter for liberal appropriation to commence the work. Will the Republican lend it's assistance, or will it continue to throy obstacles in the way of this great humanitarian project for the allevia- ton of the condition of the nations wards by advocating cession of the arid lands to the territory?
