Dispatches from Washington indicate
that the government expects to take
steps at once to construct the Gunnison
tunnel under the provisions OF the late
irrigation act. The Board OF Control do
not want this. They are trying 10 con-
vince the people thatit will be better for
lot of tin horn mining speculators to
complete this great work, and then
fleece the consumers OF water in the
valley, than to have the government DO
it and sell water rights to the people at
cost. We have always stood for the
tunnel by government aid il we could
have it; by private capital il no other
way was open. Here are u lot Of half
baked statesmen working u political
graft for all it is worth. and standing in
the way OF the only hope the people
nave ever had Of getting the water OF
the Gunnison into this parched valley.
The government is only too ready to
stand aside and devote the money that
half dozen other enterprises that are
clamoring for recognition. Every local
ity has "a project" some Of them good,
others without merit; and here we are
with Board of Control on our hands,
trying to convince The Interior Depurt-
ment that it can finance this project
without government aid. II this pro-
ject is ever completed by the present
combination of 2x4 statesmen. the peo-
pie who use the water and those who
have subscribed the money will be

IscpubIicnn Prospects.

Republicans throughout the state OF
Colorado are buckling on the armor OF
success. There is no such word as fail
in the republican lexicon. This is made
manifest by the actions OF democracy
and fusionism. The fusion leaders are
becoming furious over the situation,
Wherever they tnrn the record OF mis-
government stares them in the face. AS
the time for the fall campaign approach
es, more luminous grow the great, black
clouds. They are lowering low and
threaten TO ergulf the backers OF fusion
ism long before the close OF the race.
If there is fusion, then there is going to
be general disgust amonu voters. and if
there is not there is going to be cut
throat race that will bo anything but
sweet from tho start. No wonder old
PerpleYity lashes himself into rage in
far away Washington. When he thinks
OF anything republican he becomes in
the same condition as a bull when the
red flag is waved. lie realizes what
powerful hold the party of progress has
on the voters OF Colorado and he swea,s
drops Of blood IL his great agony. But
he is practicing just the same practic
ing bold front. He will stump the
state this fall and try the same old
bunco gameof trying to make voters
believe black is white. Hs worked the

a WALKING STICK AS a MEASURE

A walking stick Is an Invaluable arti

jeet, and the sun shines not. and there
fore no shadow Is cast. The walking
stick viii none the less assist you to
tell its height This time take a dis
lance some 100 feet from the object
which you Wish to measure. and In the
ground at that point firmly plant your
stick. Then move along from 1t IN
straight line until by lying down on
mother earth the top OF your stick and
the top OF the object to be measured
will to your eye be on line This spot
you Will mark. This gives you three
points-one, where you lay down: two.
your planted stick, and three, the OBJ
ject 10 be measured. Now, the distan %
from the point where you lay down TO
the stick is 10 the distance from the
stick to the object to be measured as
the height OF the stick IL to the height
Of that object Thus, suppose the point
where you lay down is six yards from
the stick and thlrty-six yards from the
object, then the object is six times the
height Of the stick. Now, the stick yoJ
know to be three feet high, the object
measured IS therefore approximately
eighteen feet.
Ii Is fairly easy thing to obtain the
measurement OF an object IL you but
have a rule or compass. The trouble
Is that usually when one wishes TO
