excitement and the ring was filed with

The referee thought differently, and
the decision was awarded to Simms.

A recent lawsuit in Pawnee county
was equal to anything in Emperor
Justinian's novels. A French farmer,
who lives on Wild Mule creek lost
thirteen young hogs. After four days
search he espied his missing porkers
in a hog pen on Salt Creek. He told
the Salt Creek man: 'If they are nv
hogs they will run toward me as soon
as call them in French TO the swill-
trough" No sooner had he uttered a
few French hog calls than the estrav-
ed grunters galloped toward their
lawful owner. The Salt Creek mao,
however, would not let the rooters go,
so the hog case went through the pro-
tracted district court mill. The Jury
decided that the disputed hogs be-
longed to the Frenchman, according

The call Of the mayor asking tho
taxpayers of the city Of Guthrie to
vots saa. 900 worth Of bonds for the
construction OF a system Of sewerage,
differs from like call made ore year
ago. when the mayor, IN the enthusi.
asm OF the moment, requested the
taxpayers TO support proposition
which called for The voting OF bonds
for building a waterless sewerage
system, or sewerage without sewage.
But even though the mayor has pro-
fted by experience and has amended

more an individual question. which
the taxpayer Of Guthrie is at liberty
TO treat In Ga entirely selfish manner
No levelsheaded person will ques-
tion the assertion that a system Of
sewerage in the capital city is an alb
solute need. II Guthrie prospers, oe-
velopes and spreads proper system
Of drainage is necessity, but the
modus operandi Of acquiring an efic-
lent system Of drainage is PROPOSE
tion upon which all the taxpayers OF
Guthrie are not agreed.
1t is generally conceded that the
time is ripe for building sewerage in
Guthrie. but the reckless expenditure
Of money to obtain municipal needs is
not conducive to serenity Of miad on
the part Of the taxpayer. who is call
ed on TO help shoulder city indebted
ness.
A cursory glance at the election
proclamation shows that the council
wants bonds voted in the sum Of s2s,-
900 for the digging OF drains and the
buying and buryipg Of water mains.
AS an after thought, seemingly the
council wants se 900 for the purpose
of prospecting for water with which to
flush these mains. One year ago the
council wanted $40 900 for sewerage
and made no mention of water. This
year, although the cart Is placed be-
fore the horse. the oversight is amend
ed. While IL is agreed that the capital
city needs sewerage II cannot be said
that that proposition Of the council Is
sound. 1t Is full of loop holes. In the
first place first-class system of sew
erage can be built for half of s25, 900.
In the second place, the proposition to
vote se, 900 towards securing water and
improving the water works means .
whole lot Among other things IL
means that $4,000 can be squandered
without the city receiving one cents
benefit. On the face of the psoclAmA-
tion no one knows how this sum of
$4,000 is TO be expended. City coun.
ellis have been frittering away money
during the past eight years In An en-.
deRvor to procure an adequate water
supply. City has sunk wells and expert

adventurer coming to town with q

ply question is as far from settle

ago In case the taxpayers vote the
$50. 900 in bonds what assurances have
they that an adequate water supply
and firstclass system OF sewerage
will be provided? 1t is an easy mat
ter to vote away money, but when IL
comes to paying interest-And finally
principal---on the bonds the song is
very different, especially when there
Is nothing 10 show for the money en-
pended.
While the LEADER believes that =
sewerage System is local necessity,
IL would caution Taxpayers to goslow
In the bond proposition. The attitude
and simG OF the council have never
been explained. The council has vol
unteered no informA'ion on the sew

tion and TO al appearances the tax

THREE GREAT BLu>puRS.
Spencer Wilkinson Points out the
Military Mistakes.

Spencer Wilkinson Points out the
Military Mistakes.
London. February 5.-Spencer Wilkinson
in the Morning Post today predicts that
the war will end rightly in spite Of all
bungling.
He says; When Lord Roberts is ready
for the advance new complexion Will be
put on the campaign. There will be a
strategical idea and as this idea gradually
reveals itself what seemed an neXtrcable
tangle of differences will in time present
itself as comparatively simple problem"
Then at great length Mr.. Wilkinson pro,
ceeds to criticise the three great plumbers
OF policy, strategy and tactics TO which all
the disasters arc directly attributable -
He says; The first mistake consisted in
not making the war preparations adequate
to the policy TO be pursued and in sending
Sir GeGge White to Ladysmith with an
army too small to hold Natal, The second
was the mistake in dispensing, insaead of
concentrating, Buffers forces The third
consisted Of the attempts to force prepared
positions like CSenso. Something else IL
due to the imperfect peace training. which
has allowed army maneuvers. in which
crowds of men have fired at similar crowds
with blank cartridges in the opening at
thlrty yards distance These mistakes,
instead Of being repeated, will be valuable
lessons for the future"
