Honor to Whom

When trusted representative OF

posed in him, betrsys the interests
of the State and people, sells his vote
and barters his honor for filthy lucre
words fail to measure the depth of
his infamy or the punishment that
should be attached to it. The seal
OF public condem natioa should be in
delibly stamped upon. the, act, and
the actor himself held up to the
scorn and contempt Of honest mel :.

sentative has been faithful to the

aad no words of praise are tea high

great tor, such faithful Servant or
such faithful service. -
For forty years nearly all national
Legislation has been ia the interests
of the classes and against the masses.
Amid this vast volume OF class legis-
latioa whose aim was the centraliza-
ton Of wealth in the hands of.the
few and the impoverishment of the
many. it is refreshing to fiad one bill
framed and carried through in the
interest Of the people. That ONE
measure is the irrigatioa bill passed
by Congress during the session re-
Gently closed. -.
That bill provides fer the storage
Of the food waters of the inter
mountain States to be used in. irri-
eating the scenic arid lands of those
States. thus converting them INTO
fertile ficldsto become the homes of
happy, prosperous and contented
people. 1t will add hundreds Of
thousands to the population of the
iater'mountain States, and perhaps
q hundred thousand to the popula-
ton Of Nevada. 1t will add enor-
meusly to the. population Of those
States by securing the settlement
and cultivation Of lands that other
wise would be a dreamy waste.
1t is the most beneficial act passed
by Congress during the last Fifty
years. and.th credit Of its passage
is largely due to the interchangeable
labors of our'representatives in Con-
.ress, the Hon. Francis G. Newlan1s.
He studied the proposition closely.

campaign of education among the
members OF Congress and preached
the gospel Of irrigation In season

crowned his efforts and the passage

accomplished fact.

pipe, however, and it seemed n good

tend n careless air. but I'm telling you

that the bullet had passed through the
pipe. | got brace with my hands and
feet and waited for a second bullet,
and 1t went through the bowl after the
first. | sat there until his fourth bull
let had hit the pipe and knocked the
bowl off the stem, and then the shooter

INDIAN PRAIRIE DOG HUNTS

Dainty Dish by the Navnjoes.
The Navajo Indian. while he cannot
be prevailed upon to eat rabbit, Is
greedily fond of fat prairie dogs. Large
communities OF these small animals
abound on the western plains, and the
Navajo has resorted to many ingenious
methods for trapping his coveted dain-
ty. One of them Is by the aid of bit
of mirror placed Mt the entrance to a
burrow. When the animal ventures
from his bedroom, deep under ground.
he sees familiar image mocking him
Mt the front door. and he hurries out to
confront the impudent intruder, when
he is pinned to the ground with an ar
row.
But the most effective method Is
what the Indians call the rain hunt. AS
soon as the steady downpour of sum-
mer rains begin every Navajo who can
walk repairs to the prairie dog village
with hoes, sharp sticks or any digging
implement With these they hollow
out trenches that will lead the storm
