We understand that the direct
ors of the Julesburg Irrigation
district could have secured a
proposition from Mr.. Camtield
for cheaper reservoir, one that
would not have required u bonded
Indebtedness upon land in the
district of more than $1,000 per
acre. However, they decided
that the larger project was the
better one, and while it's cost was
considerably greater at first, it
would be cheaper in the end, as
the charges for maintenance
would be very small-much
less than those upon a reservoir
Of inferior construction. We be-
lieve that the board acted wise
ly in this matter, as "a cheap arti-
Gle is often dear at any price.

A Lie Nailed.

The Julesburg organ of democracy
and discurd hands County Clerk McNsw
the following bouquet in recent issue:
County Clerk McNew has been very
gen.leIDsnly and accommodating in
furnishing the Tidings with copy of
the editor Of the discord organ has
spoken only the truth. for no one who
has ever had business dealings with
Mr. McNew Will deny that he is al
ways obliging and gentleman!y. He
has certainly beer SO To the editor OF
The Grit-Advocatc and has never re-
fused to furnish this paper any infor-
nation sought Tor. or official notices
required to be published by law.
Had the Tidings' editor stopped
with the sentence quoted above he
would have shown better Judgment,
but in order to make false accusation
aglinst the editor Of The Grit-Advo-
cate he continues: but the people
would never have been given cnance
to see them (the commissioners pro-
ceedings) had the Grit been allowed
clear field at this time
And why not, may we ask? During
the five years we have published
paper in Sedgwick county we have
never failed to publish the proceedings
OF any meeting Of the board of county
commissioners. C.. NJ. Harris, when
clerk OF the board, took especial care
to furnish US a copy of such proceed
ings, and the present county clerk has
been equally kind. Moreover, Mr.
Acklin knows, or could know If lie
would take the trouble to read the
statutes Of his adopted state, that any
county clerk who fails to publish the
commissioners proceedings within
twenty days after the adjournment of
the board is liable to fine of not less
than $4,000. This law was passed by
the Thirteenth General Assembly OF
the State of Colorado, and was ap-
proved April y, 1901. Mr.. McNew
has never violated this law, and al
though the editor Of the Julesburg
organ Of discord intimates that he
would do so were not the aforesaid
organ in existence, we do not believe
such to be the case. The commission
ers' proceedings were published in The
Grit Advocate long before the Tidings
made its debut in the newspaper field
of Sed ywick county and they will con-
tinue to be published in that paper
long after the memory Of that organ
ceases to be an unpleasant stencil in
the nostrils of the public.
We understand that the dirnct.

Greene's Monthly Letter.

w. G. Greene, who now writes a
monthly letter to the stockholders
of the Greene company, in his
letter dated May 2nd, says that
the product of the company during
April was valued at S750,00O. The
company produced 10000 pounds
more Of copper in April than in
March. Developments at Cananea
are constantly exposing more ore
of a high grade. The statement of
the treasurer shows the company
has on hand in cash and copper
$1,229,0S6.19. This amount is in
excess of the cash working capital
of the Cananea company and is
also in excess of the quick assets at
Cananea. Your company now has
an ample working capital, full
stocks of goods on hand for the
economical handling of its bust
ness, and is in condition to show
satisfactory and continuous divid-
ends for the future"

Mr.. "A. L. Peck is in receipt of a
communication from Delegate B.

upon the "Amity Indian Claims
Bill" that the New Mexico con-
gresham succeeded in getting

mittee of the House, with a report
recommending its enactment With
many others in Arizona Mr.. Peck
suffered heavy losses from depre-
dation by Indians twenty years or
more ago. Up to the time of their
outbreak the Indians had been at
peace with the whites, and the
claims for damages have always
been refused for that reason. Sue
cessive congressman from Arizona
have endeayored to do something
for their constituents, but without
success. The fact that the offend
ing Indians had not been hostiles
always stood in the way. Mr.
Rodey cut the Gordian knot by in
PRODUCING bill providing for pay
to those suffering from depreda-
lions committed by Indians at
amity, which bids fair to become

NATIONAL ROADS.

F the increasing demands the Federal treasury
are all met the time when billion dollar

men are not long voters who were boys when General
Garfield introduced the pension appropriation in the
House with apology because it carried thirtyeight
millions, and said he able to the country
that that high-water mark and the appropriation
would decline from that time Yet in 1908 the pen
sion appropriation was $I38,ooo,ooo, having gained
hundred millions Garfelds hgh-water mark and
threatens to rise $I62.ooo,ooo above it.
The newest demand the Federal Government is for
S24oooooo build county roads throughout the

should build neighborhood roads. If the people paid
their road in money and properly spent,
would have roads in the world But they

able to do for themselves.
1t is interesting that the leading advocate of this
raid is the Democratic Senator Lamer of South Caro-
lima who admits the constitutional incapacity of the Fed
eral Government do it, but declares that the consttu
ton is violated for everything ese and therefore ought
to be for this If that true, wise craftsmanship
would seem require that the constitution be respected

for jumping through If, like papered hoop at circus

Il Duty Done.

Over in Oakland they nave a police
man who believes in the practical ap-
plication of the axiom that the law
is no respecter of persons" And the
object of the application was no less
a man than Warren Olney, Mayor
and ex-officio a member of the Board
of Police and Fire Commissioners of
the city of oaks.
Oakland has a municipal ordinance
that requires property owners to keep
sidewalk shade trees 20 the foliage
will not obstruct pedestrians. Just
now, under Mayor Olney's direction.
the city is being cleaned and beauti-
fed along thoroughfares as never be-
fore in its history. His Honor is bend
ing every official energy in that di-
rection. The Police Department has
been under strict orders to 'enforca all
ordinances in bearing upon clean
streets.
The other night Policeman Jack
Gardiner. whose beat includes Black
stone HILL" where the Mayors home
is located, noticed that the luxuriant
growth about the Olney grounds was
out of bounds. So the patrolman
acted.
Meeting the Mayor at his doorway
the policeman saluted and said:
Mayor Olney, your trees are not
trimmed according to regulation, and
1 am compelled to call your attention
to them
Well well. is that So" responded
the Mayor. L am obliged to you. 1t
shall be done at once"
by the way, are you a regular po-
lice officer of this city," queried his
Honor.
Yes, sir" replied Gardiner, a bit
nonplussed.
But as the Mayor extended his hand
and glasped the others in hearty
grasp, saying, Il am very glad to
know you, SIR the doubts and fears,
if any he had, disappeared from the
vigilant patrolman's mind.

Judicial Dignity.

When Samuel II. Dwinelle presided
over the old Fifteenth District Court
in the early seventies he had occasion
to assert his dignity in very fOrceful
manner one day
A man was being tried for the shoot
ing Of a second individual in the bar
room of the old Parker House, famous
in those days as a resort for members
of the legal fraternity. George w. Ty
Ter, a brusque, brOw-beating attorney.
and Alexander Campbell were the Op
posing counsels. One Of the disputed
points at issue was the question of the
width of the saloon. One witness swore
it was forty feet wide, while another
declared it to be only twenty-five.
Suddenly Tyler appealed TO Judge
Dwinelle. saying: Your Honor knows
very well that this witness is commit
ting perjury when he swears the saloon
in question is forty feet wide. You
yourself know as we'll if not better than
any man in San Francisco the depth
and width of the Parker House sa-
LOOM
"One minute. sir" quickly ordered
the Judge: lit may be true and 1t
undoubtedly is true that Samuel II.
Dwinelle. Judge of the Fifteenth Dis
trict Court, has been in the saloon in
question, and sometimes in very doubt
full company with very disreputable
members Of the bar. But. sir, 1 want
you to understand that this court has
no judicial knowledge either of the
place or Of the competency of Samuel
H. Dwinelle's knowledge concerning it.
"In the future, sir, be careful how
you tamper with the majesty Of the
law"
When court adjourned Judge Dwi-
nellie leaned his elbows on the Parker
House bar and clicked glasses with
Attorney Tyler.

Some curious experiments have been
made at one of the royal philanthropic
institutions in Copenhagen. For some
years back the seventy boys and girls
in the place have been carefully
weighed every day in groups of fifteen
and under. Thereby it is proved that
the children gain weight mostly in au-

April there is scarcely any increase in
weight. More remarkable still, there is

THE MORAL SENSE.

M K. BRYAN has assumed new role. He presents
INI himself conscience. moral sense, and de-
4 sires to be used what the Buddists call the
National Karma." To adopt chronological and hor-
ticultural figure he capri fg into which the bias
tophaga conscience has crawed and the fig
will bear fruit until the crawls and
carries the Bryan pollen with it.
In his address to the Holland Society in New York,
Peace, he said "The evils which act the body poll
tic due to the extraordinary development of the
material of the world but the fact that the
moral has always kept pace with industrial
pansion. But there is awakening at hand
Yes there always is for those who dolefully and
tinuay deplore their age the worlds and
their country the worst of the If Mr. Bryan
have his way is evident that have another
campaign of deporng and detraction. in which those
who believe in their time and country attack those
who don't Mr.. Bryans utterance is bit mystical, but
what meaning it has socialism. According to
that cult those who make profit and those who earn
should divide with those who don't
Such application of the conscience and moral sense
leads directly individual weakness and national decay
Men will for reap, and they will
reap for non-reapers Yet that is the com
mand of Mr.. Bryan's brand of conscience That the
moral of this age and country quickened and
tive is shown by proofs that abound Labor has
had good reward here The lame halt and blind
kindly cared for here. The young were
well educated and the aged in better shelter
than here The average commanded much
of the comforts and luxuries of life here. Yet Mr.
Bryan puts dust on his head and bellows!
Does the country need lectures its moral sense
from him? Will its conscience be quickened by man
who is at es moment striving with his might to take
$4,000 from widow and children that he earned
and TO which he has not the slightest moral claim and
only doubtful legal one? We think We think that
Mr. Bryan is not the defame his country and de-
his countrymen to usefuy deplore the love of
money He has been the beneficiary of much patience
and has been treated with great poeness by his
trymen. Before he requtes this by calling attention
their soiled hands let him go wash his
