Watering Montezuma Valley.

Montezuma county's citizens are now
being importuued on the question of
bonding the county for the Montezuma
Valley Canal Conipany's property.
source of supply is conceded, and the
fact that the MoutCzuma ditch folks
own certain number of cubic feet of
water is also indisputable. The ques-
tion hinges on the price the company
asks for the property and the condition
il is to be turned over TO the taxpayers
| in, if in the present shape, then so
much the better, as the county, which
would he liable to damage in case a
weak reservoir burst and destroy life
and property, could build its own reser-
voir, and build it under direction OF
capable engineers, employing the resi-
dents in construction work. The Mar
raguinup reservoir site is one among
the best in the state, rs depth would re-
tard evaporation, the per cent would be
less than one-half that OF the Morton
lake surface, which would cover
larger area. but be shallow enough TO
evaporate rapidly. The county being
free from debt should own the water
system, and the county should do all
its own reservoir building aud ditch
construction. The government will no
doubt contract for water for the Navajo
Springs Indians, and this commissioner
could handle per acre or in perpetuity,
if the latter, the county would have
the contract so drawn rs to provide for
all emergencies in the way Of supply
failure, ditch wfecking, and all possi-
bilities in way of retarding agencies.
The county commissioners should get
the company's proposition and lay it
before the people, as 1t is one that
means the rise or fall of the Montezuma
valley, and too much care cannot be
exercised in discussing the features
thoroughly and with view of greatest
good to the greatest number, let the
tax payers talk it over among them
| selves, and an agreement be reached
before the idea of bonding is under
taken. Buy the plant as it lays and
| build your own reservoirs and make
your own contracts with the govern.
ment. Tho writer is the author of the
scheme to water the Southern Ute un'
allotted lands, and we paid severa
hundred dollars to get the matter
lodged within the jurisdiction of thu
Secretary of the Interior, where it ye
rests. II is a proposition calling fo
the utmost caution and vigilance upol
the part of Montezuma tax payers

THE FOURTH OF JULY.

On this, the day we celebrate, the
day made sacred by the lives of thou
sands of our foreiathers, letus renem-
ber what 1t means. Let us look back
short distance into the past and what
do we find? Little else than oppres-
sion, strife aud turmoil.
What have we to-day? Some tell us
that conditions are equally as bad to
day, but in another form, while others
say no. Can we truly and with TN
preiudiced minds bring ourselves to be-
lieve that conditions are rs. bad as
when this day was made one Of nation
al import, day of rejoicing, day that
saw the beginning of the now greatest
republic on earth? We think not.
Possibly conditions are not to our
liking but the fact remains that no
people OH earth have advanced SO rap
idly or so permanently As those Of the
United States, and why? The answer
is easy. Because of the making of this
day. The free thought in brought, the
unchecked line of progress it made pos
sible, the numerous opportunities it
opened in every line has builded for us
home, the like of which cannot be
found elsewhere.
. True we have had many difficulties.
Many differences have sprung up
among our people, but through all of
them the government for which our
forefathers died still exists and we may
still point with pride to the glorious
Declaration of Independence, the sigu-
ing of which made to-day what it is.
Let us one and all take on the true
spirit of the Gay aud be thankful for
what it gives 10 us. If evils exist
which we think should be righted, let
us unite for the purpose of righting
them, but let us in all cases and al all
times guard our actions so that we may
do no thing that will disgrace this day,
or which will in any way serve to
throttle the government of this great
republic.
