QUESTION.

One of the most important cases
that ever came before the supreme
court is now pending before that tri-
bunal. The parties to the suit are
the states of Colorado and Kansas,
with the United States as %intervenor,
The question at issue is shall Colo
RADIO have all the waters of the Ar
kansas river to the Kansas line for
irrigation OF shall it be divided be-
eween Colorado and Kansas" The
contest began in 1901 by Kansas
through its attorney general when a
bill Of complaint vas filed in the u.
s., supreme court. Since then the leg
islatures of both states have appro-
priated money for carrying on the
fight.
The position of Kansas has been
outlined by Its attorneys as follows:
aThe gist of this proceeding lies in.
the fact that the state OF Kansas is
the riparian owner OF lands within
It's boundaries. and the further fact
that the state % Colorado Is . very
great offender against our rights. The
state Of Kansas should not and will
not ask for al. We are not asking

What it Has to Say About the Mana
ger of the Roswell Opera House.
An institution in Salt Lake which
is developing and broadening it's
scope as to be a strong adjunct to the
local stage is Landrum's School of
Dramatic Art. Starting in a modest
way, but inspired by the loftiest am
billions. the director of this institu-
ton has within a few years built a
school which is one of a few in the
nation. Though scarcely known to
the general public. it is nevertheless
a fact that scarcely a company that
comes to Salt Lake but one or more
members utilize their spare time in
drilling at this school. Those who
think the stage a go-as-you-please.
hit-Or-miss profession, should go to
the studios of Alfred Ayeres, the or
thoepist and elocutionist in New
York, during the summer and note
how many prominent players are
there taking finishing touches in their
art. Another insight could be obtain
ed by visiting the Landrum school
here and observing the artists who
were adding to grace, poise or flexi-
bility by physical exercises. Last
week members of three different
companies were to be found there at
one time. During summer vacation

WILL MUNICIPAL POLITICS
 DEVELOP ATAMMANY HALL ?

An undercurrent rumor has started in municipal politics that bids fair to put the city of Birmingham in the true metro politan class and probably means the placing of all branches of the city govern ment in the hands of political leaders.
 It is understood an effort has been started in certain quarters to have the names of all candidates off city offices on the ticket with the candidates for mayor and aldermen and by this means force the board of aldermen to select such persons as are recommended by the vot- CTS, in other words, to have the city officials elected in the same manner as the chief of police was chosen last year. The law does not provide for the election of chief by the people. but he was voted for by the people in 1903. and the police commission feel morally bound to select the man endorsed by the voters. The plan proposed forces an alignment all the way down the ticket, and if one fac tion wins every candidate in line is suc- cessful.
 Heretofore the city officials, such as city clerk. engineer, tax collector, treas urer, auditor and so on have been elected at regular intervals by the board of mayor and aldermen. Under the pro- posed new plan the names of the candi- dates for these places would be placed on the ticket and the voters would have an opportunity to endorse them. If this plan succeeds, as 1t did with the office of chief of police, the mayor and alder

COAL COMPANY
 IS INCORPORATED
CRESCENT COAL co. IS FORMED WITH A CAPITAL STOCK OF s1oo,- ooo-PURcHAsED MINES OF THE sELocA CO.,, AT WARRIOR.

Articles of incorporation were filed in the probate court yesterday by Cuipepper Exum. W. N. Malone, W. E. Leak, Henry Warten and J. B. Darlington 10 incor- porate the Crescent Coal company. The capital stock of the company is s1oo,OOO, of which s25.000 has been paid up.
 The purpose of the corporation will be to mine. transport and sell coal and to do a general mining business; to manufac- ture and sell coke and also to buy and sell real estate.
 The property of the Seloca Coal com pany near Warrior, consisting of about 1500 acres, has been purchased by the new organization. It Is understood that the consideration was about $80T0. The output of these mines Is 20o tons per day. but this will be increased at once to 300 tons. The coal is unusually fine for steam purposes.
 The officers of the new company are: culpepper Exum, president w. N. Ma lone vice president; w. D. Leake. secre- tary and treasurer, and J. B. Darlington, manager.

men will be stripped of much power and distribution of patronage.
 The city democratic executive commit tee has the power to adopt the suggest ed plan and 1t remains to be seen how the movement will grow. It Is known that some members of that body already favor the plan, but just how many cannot be ascertained at this time
 It is urged that while this plan may have its advantages, it also has it's disad- vantages It would undoubtedly relieve the aldermen from being forced to ex- plain why they did not vote for certain friends. and will certainly give a clear idea as to whom the people desire to have in office On the other hand, 1t Is argued that it will perpetuate one element of the party in control of city affairs and will give ward politicians great power. This was the manner in which Tammany hall is said to have grown in power A real leader who once secured control, could almost dictate who should run for office, it Is argued, and could defeat most any man his organization opposed.
 With the adoption of this plan persons interested in municipal politics say 1t would cause the organization of two fac tions in the local democracy and there would be a continual fight for control.
 At any rate the situation promises to become interesting and if the movement should carry in the executive committee municipal politics would grow quite strenuous

DESERTED BABY IS
 FOUND IN BASKET
WAS LEFT IN FRONT OF COL. J. F. B. JAcksoN'S HoUSE-IT IS NOW AT THE EAST LAKE ORPHAN AGE.

A handsome little baby boy about two weeks old, carefully wrapped and laid in basket, was found in front or the resi- dence of Col J. F. E. Jackson at 1900 Seventh avenue yesterday morning. Chief Wier was notified and Officer Per- ldnson was sent to get the child and bring 1t to headquarters. The little fellow
 was sleeping soundly and had probably
 been given a large dose of paregorlc, a
 bottle of which was found in the basket. The medicine bore a label of the Todd Drug Go. of Atlanta, and this, together
 with the fact that his hair was full of cinders, leads the detectives to believe that the child came from Atlanta, and that it had not been in this city very long when discovered. Besides the paregoric the basket contained several little dresses. bottle of matted milk, a milk bottle and a note addressed to the Catholic Sisters
 The child is in apparent good health and has a very attractive countenance. His hair is red
 The note which was found in the basket was addressed to the "Catholic Sisters of Birmingham" An exact copy follows:
 ITO the One That Finds This Little Or-
 s1 have been reared among Catholic people and have always known the dear sisters to be kind-hearted ana gentle to the helpless. and this darling little or phan was left to me and l am not able to adopt him. Not knowing where to take him. I thought of the noble sisters and knew that if they could not take him and raise him in their faith, that they could find good home for him.
 This little boy is just little over two weeks old and the little time I have had him he seems to be a well strong baby. have fed him on matted milk according to directions. There will never be any trouble about him in the future and may God bless the one that opens his heart to the little darling child who was his moth CTS heart for a short little time and then separated to meet in heaven.
 "The parents of this child were respect ed nice people. Every prayer that my heart offers will have a petition for this dear little child and the one that minis ters to him. A FRIEND Father OReilly was informed of the contents of the note and he at once re- quested that the boy be sent to the or phanage at East Lake. This was immedi- ately done.
 The police believe that the letter was written by the mother of the baby and that as there are numerous grammatical mistakes she was not very well educated A large number of people visited the of fee of Chief Wier yesterday to see the child and many ladies wanted to adopt him.
 The detectives have no clue as to the parentage of the child, but are working consistently and hope to unravel the mys- terry shortly.
