CONSOLIDATION OF CANALS.

II is reported that certain Interested
persons are making strong ondeavors,
to persuade stockholders In the North
Jordan canal company to vote against
the proposed consolidation Of the irri-
eating associations in this county In
view Of the disastrous results which
would ensue from Che failure OF the
rltns TO obtain, for this and adjacent
counties. the benefit Of the national
Irrigation law, O consequence Of the
refusal Of that company to amalga-
mate, We hope the rumor Is not true.
And II It is, we trust the farmers ana
other water-users In that company will
have the good sense TO see the unwis-
dom of such opposition.
They are not asked to sacrifice any
thing that they now own or hold. They
are not expected to give or throw any
thing away. They will retain every
water right that has been fixed by law
ana the decisions Of courts, 1t is true
that under the consolidation there win
be but one company and this may ex-
Guide some individuals now In office
from the directory, But Is personal
PRIDE or ambition 10 stand in the way
OF a great public benefit? We hope
not. And we cannot believe that any
one In the company viii be so unpatri-
otto and selfish as to take such posi-
ticn.
The responsibility Of either aiding or
multiplying measures for the benefit Of
this whole region the North Jordan
canal company included, ought to
weigh nightly on the minds OF It's
Stockholders, for, upon their action win
turn the success or failure of plans
that, II effected, will ensure full
water supply TO all the companies in
terested, bring many additional acres
under cultivation, prevent further lltl-
cation and trouble as to respective
water rights, and advance the material
interests Of a vast population.
II some Of our friends cannot see
what particular advantages will ac-
crue to the North Jordan company
from amalgamation, we think they
should have some regard for the desires
and necessities OF others, particularly
when they themselves viii not In any

we are sure that IL they VIII fully i'm
vestigate the whole proposition, they

THE ALLEGED, 0lNrERFERENcE'

The frantic endeavors Of certain pa
pers including our bafIled contempor-
airy, the Salt Lake Tribune, to place
President Roosevelt In an improper
light before the country. are to say
the least. very indiscreet on the part
Of professed Republicans. They pro-
woke comments that are unfavorable to
his political prospects and are, we be-
lleve unjust to him in his official ca
pacity The personal opinion Of Mr..
Roosevelt on mooted question is one
thing, a purported message" from the
President Of the United states to
State Legislature concerning sena-
torial election, is another and very diff
ferent thing, We do not dispute either
the fact or the right Of the former, we
DO deny the truth Of the latter and
wonder at the perslstency with which
some Of his pretended supporters labor

that he has assumed to officially advise
the Legislature OF Utah as to the cleo

New York Sun has the following per-

How does the President find time
for all that ne doesg While making
plans for the more equitable division OF
property throughout the country he has

but for him as president to attempt TO
Influence the action on the Utah legis-

officially In no way concerned Is en-
tlrely another matter"
Some would-be critics affect oifense
at the implication that IN giving coun-
sci to the State Legislature the Presl.
dent assumed to interfere with dizzy
deyolying upon that body None, They
object to the term interfere and APP
