Traitors both.

Mark Twain and former President
Harrison have heretofore been regard
ed as excellent types Of the American
citizen proud OF their. country. Jealous
for its good name, solicisous that its
government shall remain true to the
principles Of liberty upon which IL was
founded.
It's becoming sadly certain. however,
that the great American philosophers
humorist and the Republican ex-presi-
dent of the United States are placing
themselves In the category of traitors
under the Mckinley definition. They
dare to deny that Mr.. Mckinley is do
ing Gods will in enslaviny, or else
Strengthening, little people who aspire
to freedom. They refuse 20 sanction
our surrender to the British policy Of
robbing weaker nations in the name OF
the Almighty.
This is great pity for Mark Twain
und for Mr.. Harrison. The grim and
savage bumor with which Twain tells
the truth of the hypocrisy Of Mr.. Me-
Kinley's ''benevoleut assimilation
pose, and the delicate satire of Mr.
Harrison's unmaskiDg Of the counten-
anee oil administration greed which
grows with avarice at the sight OF the
riches accompanying the acceptance
OF the Divine Will by the people whom
we are robbing. cannot but hurt these
disloyal gentlemen. They tell the truth
too plainly.
And telling the truth plainly In these
days Is treason. IL is always treason
when the rulers Of nation are guilty
OF sins concerning which they do not
wish the truth to be told. Mark Twain
and Benjamin Harrison are traitors
just watch the editorial columns Of the
Mckinley organs and see II they are
not duly denounced as such. Republic.

proposes to cure many Of the evils OF
the existing laws. 1t Is In the main the
same as Mornings Irrigation Act
which has given such general satisfac-
ton 10 that state for years aud years.
The first proposition Is to divide the
state into three water divisions with Il
superintendent for each division. Each
superintendent is empowered to appoint
water commissioners under him as
necessity demands. The bill provides
when the occasion demands water shall
be- distributed In sections or rotation. "
1t says: 1.-The public waters when
used for irrigation purposes shall be
distributed in such manner as will
reduce all loss from every cause to Il
minimum and in order that the highest
possible duty in irrigation OF the vol
nmn flowing in streams when 1T their
low stage may be attained, 1t shall be
the duty OF the water commissioner to
give to each and every user OF water
the u.s.. OF serviceable irrigatug
head of such size and ut such Intervals
rs Is ADAPTED to his soil and crops -
The state engineer heartily endorses
the bill.

BRYAN'S SCATHING REPLY
TO CLEVELAND'S LETTER.

William J. Bryan gives Grover
Cleve land hot roasting in the cur
rent issue of the Commoner, replying
to Growers recent letter to the Baltl-
more Democratic Club. The article is
entitled Five Dollars Reward" and
says:
:'Former President Cleveland has
written another letter in which he
gives expression to yearning desire
to have the democratic party return
to what he regards as true democracy
and correct principles. His advice is
so general and indefinite as TO be utterly
useless. Mr.. Cleveland and his politi-
cal associates are long on high sound
ING phrases, but short on definitions.
at seems proper that this paper
should give the disting former
democrat an opportunity to suggest
plans for the democratic structure
which would be commodious enough to
afford a place of refuge for him and at
the same time allow standing room for
real democrats. A reward CT five dol
lars is therefore offered for a written
statement, not to exceed five hundred
words, signed by Mr.. Cleveland apply

stands them, to at least five questions
now before the country.
"An additional reward of one dollar
will be given for statement, signed
by Mr. Cleveland, explaining why he
considered his opinion on public ques-
tions of no Importance during the re-
cent campaign, but regards such opin-
ion as important now. When the bat
tie was on between the republic and
the mpire-between democracy and
plutocracy-between bimetallisn and
monomctallism he refused TO say
word or lift maud in behalf OF the
rank and file for whom he now eX-
presses such an affectionate solicitude.
He is like soldier who was described
as invisible in war and invincible in
peace If he will clearly and candidly
define the democratic principles about
which he is so prone to talk the peo-
pie can decide for themselves whether
he is the same Mr.. Cleveland who
turned the treasury over to foreign
financial syndicate and intrusted j.
Pierpont Morgan with the combina-
tion of the government vaults, or
whether he has repented OF his folly
and is ready to accept the democratic
creed. -
