THE Sun sincerely hopes that the man
who assasinated Goebel. OF Kentucky
will be apprehended and punished. The
assassin is a man to whom no mercy
should be shown. The coward who
skulks behind some object and shoots
his unsuspecting victim down, deserves
TO be bound TO a rock, like Prometheus.

Storage Reservoirs.

All storage reservoirs should be
built as internal improvements and
permanently maintained by the
state or federal government as an
absolute assurance of safety to
communities on the land below
them. In no other way car the
inherent fear of settlement under
reservoir systems be overcome.
And the localities are few and
far between where storage reser-
voirs can ever be constructed or
maintained as profitable invest
ments' of private capital. The
problem of storing the food-waters
that now 90 to waste must be
solved by the building of govern
ment reservoirs and by no other

West not have its share Of the
