COMES OUT FOR REEDER.

Some wondered at The free
Press coming out for CONGRESSMAN
Reeder, yet all conceded the Re
servation reasons were logical and
many democrats and populists are
now openly for hun for the sake
of the Reservation and its i'm =
provement.
But the surprise of the week
has been the BELOIT CALL, the
leading Pop paper of the district,
which is supporting the whole
Fusion state and county ticket but
comes out in a column article fer
Congressman Reeder, with these
undeniable reasons:
Because he has made the best
representative the 9th district ever
had in Congress,
Because he represents the whole
people regardless of politics, and
no power On earth can persuade
him to dev1ate one iota from that
which he sees to be right
Because he is in every sense a
western man and has made a sue
cess of business life from the
ground up.
Because he is chuck full and run
nlng over with native honesty.
Because he DOES things for
the people Of his district without
reference to politics, and is aggres
sive and fearless in his advocacy
of aEv measure that seems good
for the western people.
Because no man IN the House to
daV stands better with his fellow
congressman ADD the influential
men of the Administration.
Because he is a man of no bad
habits.
Because of his devotion to the
old soldiers of the district and his
record on pension work, which
ought to win to him every man
who wore the blue.
Because q member of any pOlit
ical party will receive a favor at
his hands just as readily, and be
accorded the SAME courteous, po-
lite and gentlemanly treatment, as
a member of his own party.
Because of the irrigation law,
which is considered a Cd Home
stead law for the west and IS GER
tain to help this big district,
Because he is net an experiment
and has been in congress long enuf
to be of use t. the people of his
district and If he is retained there
he will continue to be something
more than a mere ornament He
secured the Ft Hays Reservation
for the 9th district western State
Normal school and for the State
the grandest Agricultural Expert
ment station In the world He is
on the Irrigation committee and
in a position to get the district part
OF the benefit of that new law, and
this, by the election of Mr.. Cole,
he being new man there, the
district would lose. The Roosevelt
administration is there for 2 years
more, Reeder can get these favors
but Cole could not. Two years
hence we can elect a Congressman
to stand with the new administra-
ton, but this time every benefit for
the District demand that all vote

We will admit that it is a dis
grace to be poor, that it's dishon-
orable; yea robbery to con-
tend for our rights in opposition
TO Mr.. Hill. We also admit that
we are too ignorant to compre-
bend Mr.. Hills code of morals or
ideas of justice.
Mr.. Hills piteous wall for jus
tice, almost tempered with mer-
cy, should be diverted to the pas
sions of those leasing school
lands, and not to prejudices. Mr..
Webster defines as Opinions or
decisions of mind formed without
due examination of the facts or
arguments which are necessary to
Just and impartial determine
ton" The prejudiced minds he
is appealing to don't even know
that it is nominated in most of
the leases that they are leased for
5 or 10 years, subject to the action
of future Legislatures. If the
legislature has the right to lease
them for 10 years, has it not the
right to lease them for 100?
When l begin to have a greater
consideration for the future of q
Texas COW than for that of q hui
man creature, l will hire an
X-ray to extract the fangs of
avarice that are to-day poisoning
all the purest impulses of the hui
man heart.

A Few Points MIR. Hill can Per.
haps Explain to the People.

Since he has never shown the
law wherein the state is legally
bound TO continue leases for
longer than the life of the legis-
lature that makes them. will he
kindly inform the public where
any such power was ever delegated
to our Legislature to lease public
lands for longer than two years?
viii Mr.. Hill show wherein
John Smith is legally or morally
bound TO respect an act on the
part of Sam Jones, where Smith
delegates the power to Jones, and
records it, giving Jones power to
lease his farm for two years, and
Jones leases it for 10?
We can readily conceive how
Smith, if he considered it to his
interest, or does not want to oc-
cupy the farm himself, would al
low the lease to continue until he
does.
Democracy, the voice of the
people is John Smith and the leg
islature is Sam Jones, John
Smith wants his farm that Sam
Jones has prevented him from

Talks ABBOTT Quarantine.

DR.. w. X. LOWS, was in Sweet
water Tuesday night. In CONVEX
sation with Reporter representa-
tive DR.. Lewis said considering
the line: II do not favor any
change in the quarantine line at
this time, but a modification of
the laws 80 as to allow clean in
spected cattle to pass at any
time, would in my opinion,
the proper thing / favor holding
the cattle in quarantine only ten
days. Then if they are free from
ticks allow them to pass. If not
turn them back until they are
cleared, unless the ticks are on
the cattle they are not infectious,
and as soon as they are cleared
they should be allowed to cross.
The doctor talked at length on
the subject of the cattle quaran-
tine, and gave us some valuable
information concerning the con-
ditions now in existing in West
Texas. He has an invention of
his own to spray cattle and rid
them of the ticks and is using it
successfully in different parts of
the state.-Reporter.

SAVAGERY OF WARFARE.

Lynn, Mass, April 23.-Two
men, William Labelle and Albert
w. Bertrand, formerly privates in
company d, Twenty-sixth Regi-
ment, U. S. ", have sent to
Senator Lodge a statement of in
stances of the application of the
water cure" in the Philippines
that came under their observation.
Bertrand was clerk of Company d
and regimental clerk at head
quarters, the regiment was station
ed at Panay. Labelle says that
while at Anilao three natives were
taken by Company d men into
a Catholic church and given the
water cure
One of the natives refused to tell
where insurgent guns were secreted
and after he had been given the
water cure he was blindfolded
and one of the soldiers fired his
gun near the mans head. The
instant the gun was fired another
member of the squad hit the native
with stone, and he was told that
he had been shot. The native
then told the soldiers where they
could find the guns.
Labelle further says that in the
simmer of 1900, while the United
Statet forces were about three
miles from Estancia, Company d
captured three natives and gave
the water cure. After the men
had been filed with water blood
came from their eyes and ears.
Bertrand has furnished Senator
Lodge with particulars of the al
legged disappearance and killing
of Father Augustine, a Catholic
priest at Bolo. He says it was re-
ported that Father Augustine
knew where insurgent gold was
buried. Men from Company d
captured him in December, 1900
and dressed him in uniform of
the United States Artillery. He
was then taken to Banato and
kept in a we'll. He refused to tell
where the gold was buried and
on the night of December 8 the
water cure was given him. The
men tried to get nearly all of the
water out of him, but he did not
revive. A surgeon was sent for,
but Bertrand says the priest died.
According to Labelle when Com
pany ID was out on a hike while
stationed at Dungas in July, 1900
the men were ordered to burn ever
thing and see that no grown person
escaped. This, Labelle says,
the men proceeded to do.

make all state lands under lease

One Legislature has no power to
make a lease of these lands for
longer period than the life of that

disposition of the lands until they
are in demand for purchase, and
if one Legislature says they may
be leased for a longer period than
