Thomas H. Barry. E. J. McClernand, James S. Petit, Dr. Valery Hayard, Dr. l.. A. La Garde, O. H, Ernst, w. M. Black, G. " Goethals, John Riddle, Grozier, Borup, Reher and Greble, all of whom are in the staff corps, be con- sidered now for promotion on their
 merits over the head of General Wood? Every one of them is a better soldier than he. and their names do not begin
 to exhaust the list. Bliss was a better administrator than he, and did far more important administrative work in Cuba. Bell is incomparably his superior as soldier. If 1t was fair to jump him over the heads of such men two or three years ago, why not jump some of them over his head now?"
 In our opinion, the point so stated is we'll taken. Gen. Wood was simply re- warded for his exertions by the late
 president. If President Roosevelt's relations with him are so peculiarly
 close that he could not bring himself-to deny him this present promotion. the Senate ought to concern itself vigilantly in the matter, and decline to confirn the
 appointment unless 1t shall appear that there were better reasons for making 1t
 than the personal intimacy of the
 appointee with two successive presi-.
 dents.
 There are highly important offices
 which. the president might give to such
 man as Gen. Wood without exciting
 criticism of importance. but a major
 generalship in the army is not one of them That ought to go to an officer of thorough military training and distin-
 guished record. That 1t should go to an officer whose career as fighting man began no more than five years ago, and
 whose military record, though creditable is brilliant only in it's rewards, dernora- lizing to the faithful officers of the
 army. It Is a shock to dis cipline, and it comes curiously enough, from president whose interest in the army has been active and intelligent be- yond what is common, and under whose administration and with his help great progress has been made in making the army an efficient machine. It was not characteristic of President Roosevelt to
 give major -generalship to a man who had not earned 1t. We must conclude that in General Wood g case either the personal motives for making the ap- pointment were so peculiarly strong as to overcome his sense of fitness, or that his opinion of the Gen. Woods services,
 and of his military abilities is exceeding ly high. The remedy lies with the Senate. which should not fail, and we think, will not fail, to examine careful- lyinto General Woods qualification and military record, and decline to confirm the appointment If 1t shall prove to be
 inexpedient and undeserved.-Harper's Weekly. ,,.:~.s.. .- ... .s. z.@s Z

Lest We Forget.

Last Monday for a few hours
President Roosevelt was the guest
of Denver. The streets were lined
with the people Of the city; houses
and buildings were covered with
bunting, $4,000 people listened at
the capitol to hear every word of the
presidents address, and cheered him
at its close. But the most remark.
able of all the demonstrations was
that made by those newspapers
whose appeal is ever to hatred and
to prejudice, to envy and suspicion,
by slander and unfounded accusa-
lion. These organs Landed Roose-
velt to the skies, not only as presi
dent of all the people, but as a man,
broad and firm and strong; honest
with himself and honest in his pur-
poses; clear of mind and clear of
purpose, the president of no party,
but OF the whole people.
Now, in less than week, blood
red headlines and lurid language in
wide spaced type, set forth that
President Roosevelt has meanly and
basely conspired with certain rich
men in New York to get the Cuban
reciprocity bill through, not to help
the Cubsns, not to help the people
of the United States, nor for any
noble or respectable purposes, but in
order that these rich men may wick
edly crush out the sugar beet indus
try of this part of the country.
A year from now, when the strug
gle is on for the presidency and
Roosevelt is the candidate Of the re-
publican party, no slander will be too
infamous, no inference too ignoble
to be connected with his name. Will
the people of Denver then heed what
was said when Roosevelt was here,
or what is said when he has gone on

says it is a law question and not
question of fact to be considered.
The law question which he wants
settled is the power Of Colorado to
abrogate the old common law doc
trine Of riparian rights, and substi-
tute in its place the Colorado system
Of irrigation laws.
"He means by that whether legis
lation Of this state can be such as to
permit the taking Of water out Of
streams and appropriating it to the
use of Colorado, to the damage Of
sister states.
II also saw Judge Campbell, attor-
ney for the interior department Of
the United States, and he said it was
not likely that the government
would intervene, and if it did, only
on the ground that the United States
possessed q large amount of ground
along the Ark<ashs river in which
they had interest.
"Both Judge Campbell and Judge
Ware stated positively that the case
would not be presented to the court
on the ground that it is a navigable
stream, but solely on the rights of
Colorado to use the water to the ex-
clusion of farmers in Kansas.
Judge Campbell said that it
would not be decided if the govern
ment would intervene until both
states had filed pleadings and then
the United States would determine
if it had any interests to protect. At
present he did not think the govern
ment would intervene. Judge Ware
said he did not want the government
to intervene, as he preferred for the
states to fight it out between them.
selves.
''The real question is the limita-
ton upon the power Of Colorado to
control the use of the waters suppl
ed exclusively within her own border
leaving out any consideration of the
problem of irrigation. It is ques-
ton as to who has the best right to
the water"
The opinion has been general in
Colorado that the government would
intervene; also that it was q question
of navigation; but the opinions of
Judge Campbell and Judge Ware
entirely upset these views.-Denver
