Preparing fer Kansas Suit.

Attorney General Miller and the
corps of able lawyers associated with
him in the defense of the suit brought
by Kansas to put stop to irrigation
in the Arkansas valley are giving spe-
cial attention to the preparation of ev-
idence to be used on the trial, while
at the same time they are guarding all
the legal points.
In view OF the attitude taken by the
members OF the Supreme Court on the
argument of the demurrer filed to the
first bill of the plaintiff. it looks as if
the case would not be gained on any
purely legal point, apart from the
facts. Accepting this as a possibility
the attorneys and State Engineer Car
penter are gathering a great quantity
of evidence going to show that irriga;
ton in Colorado does not violate any
right enjoyed by the people of Kansas.
Important in this connection are the
measurements of the river which the
state engineer has been making for
some time. BY means of the evidence
thus obtained the inquiries Of the Su-
preme Court in regard to certain mat.
tiers of fact can be readily answered.
Along the same line are the measure
ments already made by the state en-
gineer showing the course Of floods in
the river and what becomes Of the wa
ter.
AS part of this preparatory work At
torney General Miller has had search
made of documents bearing upon the
history of the Arkansas river and the
country through which it flows. Ex-
plorers who passed along its banks or
crossed it years ago are thus called
upon to testify to the character OF the
stream long before there was any irri
CATION to divert it's waters.
This historical evidence strongly
supports the assertion made on behalf
of the defense that in an arid region a
stream grows smaller as it proceeds
from its chief source of supply. In hui
mid countries river becomes larger as
it advances toward it's mouth. But 1t
is not so with rivers in an arid region,
mountains can testify. An arid region
stream loses much Of Its volume be-
cause the water sinks into the sands.
some of it finding its way far below
inlo the rock formation. Thus the tes-
timony clearly shows that near the
mountains the Arkansas has always
been a larger stream than it is two or
three hundred miles east of Pueblo.
1t is the thorough preparation of the
defense which justifies the hope that
Kansas will fail In its attempt to check
irrigation in this state, thereby de-
stroying millions OF dollars of valuable
property which is the result of the res
clamation of arid land through irriga-

The past season was so interspersed
with weekly showers in some parts OF
Colorado that good deal of ergot eX-
lists in the rye and native hay. In addi-
ton to the rye thirty species of grasses
are subject to attacks of ergot, among
which are the various species of bronze
grasses, timothy. fescue, rye grass, dog
tooth. couch, meadow foxtail. orchard
grass and several species of the poas.
For the eradication of ergot careful
screening of all seeds should be done
with care to avoid distributing the in
rected material from one field to an
other by means of hay or stock. In
tase of pastures which have become
seriously infected as is the case on the
Divide, sone cultivated crop should
be employed for a few years until the
danger from propagation has passed

Second Suit Against Rouse.

Another suit was filed Septem-
ber 29th in the District Court
at Denver against Van E. Rouse.
former treasurer of the State
Worlds Fair Board. asking him
for $221.s9, representing the sum al,
legged to have been in the possession
Of the defendant at the time of his
removal and the appointment of Harry
Casady to succeed him. The suit was
filed by Attorney General N. c. Miller
for Harry Casady.
The complaint sets forth that on Aug
ust S, 1901, the governor appointed
the board to display at the fair the
wealth of Colorado and at that time
appointed Rouse as treasurer. On
May 6, 1902, it is stated that Rouse
gave $4,000 bond with the American
Bonding and Trust Company of Balti-
more as security, and later, on August
3, 1908, Rouse was put out of office bs
the governor and Harry Casady ap-
pointed in his place.
1t is claimed that at that time Rouse
had $221.S9 on hand in cash which he
refused to give over to his successor.
and the suit asks judgment for that
amount with interest at the rate of
eight per cent per annum from August
10. 1908.
A few weeks ago the former suit
was filed in the district court against
Rouse asking judgment for more than
$4,000. 1t was claimed that he had
taken this amount out of the general
fund to use for the construction of
buildings. This sum had been sepa-
rated from the other funds in order to
keep it from reverting to the general
fund according to law, If not used with
in year from the date of appropria-
ton.
Rouse claims that the governor had
no Eight to remove him from the Office
of treasurer and on this ground re-
fuses to turn over the money. The
board on the other hand claims that
the governor mad perfect right to
remove him and that further, even If
he did not have the right, the board
itself had the right to remove Rouse
as treasurer AT the time Rouse was
removed, George w. Thatcher was also
removed as president of the board
and Paul Wilson appointed in his
| place.

State liquor licenses are being rap
idly collected by the Office of State
Treasurer Newton. At present there is
from $500 to $500 a day coming in from
this source. On the 5th instant there
were eight licenses brought in, and this
is about the general average for the
day. This is the first time that the Ii
censes have been collected by the state,
and the results are gratifying to the
state officials. The license for the
state is $25, and saloon keepers all
over the state will be required to pay

London, Nov. 3.-The release from custody of Jas. L.

 The Globe says: The next assassin of president will plead Commissioner Moores judgment with irresistible force if he escapes across the Canadian line. The Americans will have no cause for complaint if the result throws out of gear the whole machinery of extradition between the United States and Great Britain.

Rome, Nov. 3.-Much excitement was caused, late Sunday evening, by the sight of flames issuing from the vat ican buildings. The fire originated in the apartments of Father Ehrle, the li- Drarian of the vatican.
 The fire broke out at S:30 in that portion of the vatican containing the hall of inscriptions, where the pope gives his audience, and which Is ad- jacent to the famous Pinacoteca. or gallery of pictures. The alarm caused much confusion and excitement in the palace. Strenuous efforts were made to control the flames, and the flremen of Rome were called to lend their help. At 10:45 the fire was under control. No lives were lost. No idea of the damage can yet be obtained. The pope went to the scene in person and re- mained until the arrangements to fight the fire were completed.
