Before Marriage,

Fuddy-There would be fewer un-

and women would try to find out each

as you say, fewer unhappy marriages.

MEASURES
THOSE OF NEVADA IN NEED
OF AMENDING
A Letter Tia: Dcsignates the
CHANGES

The following letter relative to the
needed changes in Neyadas irrigation
law speaks for itself:
Phenix, Ar, Jan. 10, 1903.
Col H. Maxson, Reno, New:
My dear Colonel:-I have taken the
earliest opportunity to examine the
compiled laws of Nevada. which You
go kindly obtained for me, and it
seems to me that your irrigation laws
are in very poor shape.
Sections 354 to 1913, inclusive, are
evidently patterned after the Wyoming
system, but are very crude imita-
tons.
Section l declares the water to the
State, which is a totally wrong pro-
vision. The water does not belong
to the State, and the State by stat
utory declaration cannot asure part
nership of it any more than it could
by statute, assume ownership Of the
public lands.
Section l should be amended so as
to declare the water to be the prop
| erty Of the public, subject to appro-
priation fer beneficial use, and should
be declared to be the basis, the meas
ure and the limit Of the right.
This principle has been declared for
in the resolutions Of several of the
irrigation congresses, The use of all
water now appropriated or that may
hereafter be appropriated should be
declared to be q public use.
Section $50 should be amended by
striking out the words . or to dispose
Of its USE" in the third line of the sec
ton SO that the section should read
the right to use It fer a beneficial
purpose
Section 500 to 373, both inclusive
should be repealed and for then
should be substituted some simple sy:
TEN of statutory appropriation like
that of California and Montana.
When Mr.. Newell WIS in Phoeni,
we were talking about the laws of wa
ter in Nevada, and it occurred to m,
that it would be a good IDEA for 20,
to write to him and see whether he
has any suggestion to make in tn
matter before taking it up with thu
Legislature in any way
With sincere personal regard, be
| lieve me as ever
Sincerely yours,
GEORGE H. MAXWELL.

THE MiNSTRELs.
The Drummers to Give the Peope ];
Treat Next Week.

The lovers of music will have a
great opportunity next Monday even
ing to enjoy the treat promised them
by the Freeman & Lynn Commercial
Mems Minstrels. Last season the
arrangement of the music, the compo-
sition of the musical features in
which orchestra and chorus took part,
notably at the opening and close of
tine first part, clearly indicated that a
very adroit hand and skilled intelli-
gence had to do with it ALL
The drummers disregard expense,
as they are not organized to do more
than pay actual expenses. The result
Of such an enterprise enables the the
atre goers Of this town to hear the
finest orchestra of any company on
the road today, save the grand opera
that occasionally visits San Francisco
There will be sixteen musicians in the
orchestra and every man a master OF
his respective instrument.

LEW,s-cLARk CENTENNIAL.
A Special Commission Here in Inter
est Of Big Coast Show.

The Oregon Legislature a few days
ago appropriated $1,000 towards the
holding of the Lewis and Clark Gen.
tennial exposition in 1905 in the city
OF Portland. Oregon. at the junction
of the willamette and Columbia riv
ers, upon the site where Captain Lew
is and Clark, in 1864 hundred years
age camped on THERE trip Of explo-
ration down the Columbia. lne Gen.
tennial is to be devoted to exploration
Of the commerce and industry Of the
entire Pacific Coast, and the inter-
mountain States. Special Commits
sioner Freeman, from Portland, is in
Carson City interviewing members
of the Legislature with view to in.
teresting them in the scope and plans
Of the northwest fair. Mr.. Freeman
states that Utah, Idaho. Montana, Co
dorado, Washington, British Columbia
and California have already taken pre-
liminary steps towards officially re-
cognizing this exposition. and partici-
patiug in the event. Each of these
states are making liberal appropriate
ions two years in advance. The greas
northwest country which came int.
the possession Of the United States
az a result Of Jeffersons efforts to-
ward having it explored century ago
is experiencing great prosperity.
In some respects the Lewis and
Clark fair is Of greater importance to
the West, 1t is believed. than the st.
Louis fair The Lewis and Clark Cen.
tennial people hope to hare Nevada

from st. Louis to Portland. The rail-.
roads are strongly backing Oregon

Before photography was employed

the image appeared light and the fruit
