What Buchanan Said.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
 A quotation is current from the mes sage of President James Buchanan to congress in 1857: "Our country in it's mon- etary interests is at the present moment in deplorable condition. In the midst of unsurpassed plenty In all the produe- tions of agriculture and in all the ele- ments of national wealth we find our man ufactures suspended, our public works re- tarded, our private enterprises of dltfer- ent kinds abandoned, and thousands or useful Iaborers thrown out of employment and reduced to want''
 We'll, what of it? Those who lived in that day and those who have assiduously read the history of the country, know that along about 1857 was a bad time. It was so wretched that even men of the present day who were children then have a vivid personal recollection of it. But there were bad times since. These waves of diversity are part of the general econ omy. They have no respect for persons, parties or religions. They come when bus mess gets overwrought and there has to be a settlement. There will be panics and distress in the future. Their coming Is destiny, may they be long deferred in any event, but whichever party is put in power by the edict of the people on the Sth of November must take the risk of having a depression on its hands before 1t gets through with it's commission.

NATIONAL POLITICS.
The Vote of New York.

From the New York World.
 The most sensational publication of the day in politics is the Brooklyn Eagles estimate, from a careful poll. that MT. Parker's plurality in New York City will be 1sS,000 votes.
 How does this great plurality. which the Eagle is careful to call indication, not prediction" compare with what might be considered the normal party vote in this city? To get that we must manifestly dis regard the polls of 1896 and 1900 and go back to Cleveland's election in 1892. From 155,000 to 159.000 more votes will be cast in New York next week than in that year. If MT. Parker gets a plurality in precise proportion to MT. C1eve1and's 1t should be not far from 145,00O. And. curiously, a proportionate increase upon Coler's plur- ality of 122,0O0 in the light vote of 1902 would work out close to the same result.
 He would be rash prophet, however, who should reason too confidently from 1892 to 1904 and still more rash who should draw conclusions from the Coler vote. While waiting the result the Eagles poll Is at least very interesting.

the same as they wanted to THAT
is, to have il flow by them for the
same purpose which would ey-
clude the use OF tn. river for irri-
CATION.
When the attorneys in the suit
approached the people in western
Kansas TO have them testify on
the Kansas side of the suit. tb. ir
witnesses conveyed the impression
that they bel eyed that tue suit
WAS TO prevent Colorado fir m u.s.
ing tie water SO that the bitches
of western Kansas could Use it.
hnt rs soon rs they understood
that the suit under the doctrine of
riparian rights must stop the use
of the river in western Kansas for
irrigation purposes as well as in
Colorado. in nearly all cases they
Immediately saw that their inter
esis lay on the Colorado or applo-
priation side of the contention.
II is a fact and will be proved
beyond peradv-ntu.c of a doubt.
that the irrigation in Colorado h 8
taken up the wafer which would
have passed into Kansas in food
times, and by using it on their
lands lave caused the water to
eeep back into the streams and
thence iuto the river, until VIII ere
the river was dry at the state line
before irrigatian began, except
during flood times. ii is now flow
ing constant stream of water:
and that the Kensas bitches have
more water in them for irrigation
purposes today, b 'cause of its Use
in Colorado. TIL IL they had | efore
Colorado used va er for irligati II
purposes, and that this constant
stream is increasing from year t
year and is really doing the irri-
cation of Kansas more good than
harui.
1t will also be proved that il Ike
city of Wichita is suffering from
lack of water in tho stream, that
luck of water is caused moie by
the use uf water in the Kansas
bitches, which has been released
by the state of Colorado, than by
the Use of water ia the Colorado
ditches.
1t will he further proved Tint
whereas all the streams in Colo
RADIO which are covered by Il ditch
and were dry streams before irri-
CATION, are now constantly flowing
winter and summer.
Ii the doctrine OF riparian rights
under which Kansas brings this
suit is held 10 be good in the ard
West as ag inst the doctrine of
nppropr alton, the bitches in west
era Kansas must stop irrigating as
well as the bitches in Colorado. 1t
would be inconsistent with any
idea of logic that the supreme
court should render decision :l.at
Colorado cannot use water for ilri-
CATION aud that western ksnsns
can.
II can be SAID, withou; fear Of
contradiction. that no citizen in
western Kansas ca, in his owl.
Interests he otherwise than on the
side of the Colorado contention
and that he sta'e Of Kansas Itself
must see that as between the inter.
cs of Wichita. which does not
propose TO use the water for terc.
fetal purposes, aud the interests OF
western Kansas, who do wish t .
use the water for beneficial pur-
poses, that the western Kans IS
people must have the supps TT of
the state.
1t is ridiculous to suppose that
