 eratiOu

Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 We seldom hear just or charitable defense for this class of citizens, or q plea for their proper recognition in the varied activities of life, from which they have been so generally deposed in re- cent days. We do hear on all sides this query: What are we to do? There is no place for men of maturity We are being relegated to idleness, and our places filled by younger men supposed to possess more push and brawn."
 It appears that the wisdom, calmness and Judgment born only of experience count for little or naught in this mer- cenary age, in which the chief aim is to make haste in getting rich regard less of the safety of human life or a thought of it's necessities. This state of affairs cannot forever continue.

The newly elected Methodist bishop, Dr. William Burt of Rome. N. T., is noted for his cheerful and placid man. ner. A minister complimented Dr. Burt on his good disposition and asked him how he acquired it. Maybe the remark of child that I once overheard helped me to learn to complain and grumbIe as little as possible" said Dr. Burt. While was studying at Will braham academy I spent few days with this child's father--a good man, but a chronic growler. We were all sitting in the parlor one night when the question of food arose. The child. a little girl, told cleverly what each member of the house liked best Finally 1t came to the fathers turn to be de- scribed. And what do I like, Nancy?, he said, laughing. You said the little girl slowly, well you like most any, thing we haven't got.''

 Prince Mirsky, Plehve's successor, is described as a little man, about the stature of the French statesman Thiers: forty-seven years old, but looking much older; and of quiet and retiring man. ner. He comes of the old ducal family of Lithuania. As a lieutenant of cav- airy he distinguished himself in the Russo-T Turkish war of 1s77, when twen- ty years old.

All Right in Phillips County.

W. II. Pound, our present prosecut-
ing attorney, is again in the race for
the office as candidate on the rcpub-
lican ticket. Judge Pound has held
the office for four years and, so far as
we are Informed, has given general
satisfaction in his performance OF the
duties OF the office. Fortunately dur
ing the past four years Phillips coun-
ty has had very little work for the
prosecuting attorney but Judge Pound
has been kept quite busy looking af-
ter the unruly citizens of some OF the
other counties OF the district and
seems to have given good satisfaction.
This being q republican district and
Judge Pound Il very successful cam
paisner, there certainly is a gloomy
outlook for his opponent. Mr.. Brasie,
of Yuma County. Judge Pound will
be elected by large majority.-Holy-

Value of Canal Enhanced.

When the priorities of the Petersen
& Loveland canal are adjudicated this
canal will hold rights to water over
eleven bitches farther west. These
western bitches have title TO, or are
claiming, 1923 cubic feet OF water.
They are as follows: Already adjudi-
Gated: Chambers. 80 feet: South Platte
Extension. 80 feet; Farmers, l6 feet;
Lone Tree, 80 feet; Harmony No. /,
252 feet; Harmony No. ?, 1873 feet.
Now in court: Harmony No. =, 2l9
feet; Tamarack, 1873 feet; Enlargement
OF Harmony No. ?, lG2 feet: Red Lion
Supply, 81 feet; Settlers, 397 feet.
1t will thus be seen that the adjudi-
cation Of the rights of the Petersen 4
Loveland canal will greatly enhance
the value Of this property, even though
the efforts OF three or four residents of
Sedgwick county to prevent the canal
company securing the full amount of
water asked for succeed.
