Satisfactory Nomination.

Iowa Falls, Sept. 26.-News of the
nomination made by the republican
congressional convention at Hampton
last evening was enthusiastically re-
ceived here, and on every hand were
heard expressions of satisfaction. Party
leaders express themselves as feeling
that the action of the convention placed
on the party ticket the strongest cam
didate that could have been named.
Judge Birdsall is and has been very
popular in this county for years. This
county is in the district in which Judge
Birdsall presided as district judge for a
number of years, his service on the
bench giving him a wide and favorable
acquaintance that undoubtedly aided
him in his nomination as congressman
from the Third district.

be done. The water, or most of it, now used fer irrigation in that val ley is owned by canal companies that are loaded with enormous bonded debts which the people could not af- ford to assume. A serious difficulty to prevent the land owners from buy ing up the canals is the fact that the land owners aIe not on an equal foot ing in regard to the supply of water. Prior rights give to some fair sup ply of water at all. times, while others have absolutely none. Those who al ready have supply of water will not assist in supplying water to those who hve none. If the conditions laid down by Mr. Maxwell are imperative, then there is but little hope that the gov ,ernment will consider favorably the Tonto Basin site.
 The San Carlos reservoir will put water onto land now in a desert state; this is the object of the national irri- gation law; it was never intended that the government should render assist ance to canal companies, and the Ca nal companies of the Salt River val ley, would come in for a large share of the benefits of the Tonto Basin res ervoir, either by selling out the ca nals or by distributing the increased water supply through them.

A PECULIAR SITUATION

The Coconino Sun says: Coconino county is placed in a peculiar situa- ton by the sudden increase of the value of taxable property, which un- der the, law places it among the coun- ties of the first class and increases the salaries of every county official. with the exception of that of the sheriff
 The county will remain in the first class list about one year. as the cor porations which own the forest re- serve lands will have disposed of their holdings to the government by the first of February. 1903. and these lands will not be subject to taxation next year or thereafter, when the county will by operation of law revert to a third or fourth class county, with the expenses, so far as the county officials are concerned. of a first class county.
 The increase in salaries will amount to about $S000 per year, or s16,009 .or he two years term the officials were elected for It is probable that the law does not contemplate such condition of affairs, and in this case it will be an imposition upon the tax payers of Coconino county and an in crease in the salary of county officers which the financial condition of the county does not warrant.
 There is a strong and growing sen timent among the taxpayers against assuming the increased expenses of T first class. which only benefits the of ficeholder, and the question as to whether or not this increased and un- necessary expense shall be donated to the officeholder rests largely with the taxpayer
 The present board of supervisors are opposed to any increase in the expenses in this direction, and not one of the present county officials will ask for any compensation other than that allowed in a third class county, and it is fully expected that the officials who will be elected at the coming election will entertain the same sen timents in the matter.

democracy will place the only genu- inc antitrust presidential ticket in the field. This is made certain by the further fact that the political battle of 1904 will be fought on the issue of tariff revision as the best practical means of trust restriction and that the American people will support democ- racy on this issue. but a wise demo- cratic choice at the proper moment will mean democratic victory at the polls.
