PROBLEMS.

Omaha Bee: Not only is the di-
version of streams for purposes OF
irrigation fruitful of private litigation,
but is creating interstate and inter
national problems of more or less
gravity. AS to the controversies be-
tween states they a be settled by
our courts, but the International Ques-
tions that may arise are more diff
cult. It is noted that a number OF
streams rising in Canada flow to the
Missouri and on some of them the.
diversion of water on one side of the
boundary or the other is at any time
liable to cause trouble.
A western paper calls attention to
the fact that there are already con
tentions in regard to Milk river, which
rises in Montana and after flowing a
considerable distance through Canada
returns to this country. 1t appears
that there are a large number of irri-
cation bitches on the lower stream
and now Canadian irrigators have be-
gun taking out water above them.
american settlers are appealing to the
government to be protected in the mat
ter and it is by no mean unlikely
that this will become a source of con-.
troversy between the United States
and Canada. It is also pointed out
that there are similar conflicts Of in.
terest, which have not yet become
acute, between this country and Mexi-
co in regard to the waters of the
Colorado and Rio Grande.
Sooner or later this international
feature of the irrigation problem is
pretty sure to demand serious atten-
ton and it is conceivable that it may
become troublesome, at least so far
as Canada is concerned.

SIGNS FOR A KANSAS LASH


A Soldier Writes That He Is Very
Lonesome In the Philippines.
Here is a chance for some Kansas
young woman who would like to 60 to
the Philippines to become the wife Of
John G. Lally, in the quartermaster's
department of the United States army.
Mr.. Lally writes to the Kansas City
Star saying he is at present master Of
transportation in the quartermaster's
department and that he is very lonely.
The letter follows:
Malabang, Mindanao, p. I.
Would you please be SO kind as to pub
lish this advertisement for me. I am
lonesome over in this distant land. I
would like to form the acquaintance Of
and marry some young Kansas lassie. I
am at present master of transportation in
the quartermaster's department of the
army. I am awful lonesome over here. I
will be ever SO thankful to you II you
would do me the avor.
This Is tn. lonesomest place On earth.
Without friends I have been in this coun-
try since 1898 in the Tenth Pennsylvania
volunteers, served honest and faithful. j
nave no parents; they are all dead, 80
that Is the reason I 8 you this favor. I
am at present drawing 500 a mont from
the quartermaster's department. and I
have a nice amount in the bank of Manila.
I will close, hoping to hear from your
state soon.

not come up for actual hearing.

not come up for actual hearing. The
county attorney is familiar with the
testimony at the command of the
state, having conducted the examina-
tion of the witnesses who testified at
the inquest, consequently no extended
time will be required for him to as
certain what evidence is available or
to familiarize himself with the case
so far as relates to his presentation
of it. The man accused is not without
means, at least he has sufficient to
enable him to employ some one to
conduct his defense, and if given to
understand that his trial is not to be
delayed he is in a position to retain
counsel, not being compelled to wait
until such time as the court may ap-
point and hence a plea of unprepared-
ness when his case was called would
hardly be. accepted as reasonable.
Another murder, cowardly and afro
cious, was committed in the city only
so recently that the blood stains OF
the victim still mark the scene of
it's occurrence. Because 6f the cir
cumstances attending it it has been
to detect the perpetrator
and the Likelihood of his punishment
is remote. With the witnesses COM
oetent to give testimony in the second
1t hand, nothing should be allowed to
a delay and make possible the
OF testimony of the ut
most Importance to the state.

If the new ruling of the interior
department will only be strictly and
continuously adhered to the chances
are that the future will witness a
perceptible decrease in the number of
charges of fraud in connection with

irrigation and reclamation instead OF
fctitious-there must be water as we'll

ably adequate for the purpose of their

BUILDING MORE RAILROADS.
Newspapers Undertake Construction
| of a Few New Lines.

/ Of a Few New Lines.
@nce o railroad rumors are fill
ing the air. Down at Miles City they
have it that a survey is to be made as
soon as the weather permits of a line
that has for it's object a connecting
link between the Custer county capt.
tai and Great Falls. As the Milesians
are building the road, it will give Bill
ings the go-by, which is to be left far
to the west. This is hard on Billings,
but until something more than a pros
pective survey is undertaken the peo-
pie h%ereabouts will probably not give
way completely to grief and disap-
pointment.
are building roads at a rate that
threatens to make them as common as
cattle trails used to be before the
pilgrim and his wire fence invaded
the country. Although none of those
roads is to tap Billings, a couple at
least will come close enough to make
it tantalizing to all who think that
another railroad, n not included in
the Hill scheme OF benevolent assimi-
lation, would be a real handy and good
thing to have about. The Big Horn
basin is the territory selected for the
operations of these two hand-maids of
civilization and prosperity. When
completed one is to be operated by
the Belgo-American Oil company, and
the other by the old reliable and we'll
known Chicago & Northwestern. Gov
ernor Chatterton of Wyoming is given
as the authority for the statement
that the combination. of Belgic and
American capital is to add railroad
construction and operation to it's other
business.
His excellency is quoted as saying
that the company will build a road
from Casper to Orrin Junction, thence
westward to Lander, following the
Platte river, and thence north into the
basin. The first part of the proposed
line will encroach upon the North.
Westerns territory, while it's terminal
will be an invasion OF the rights now
held by the Burlington. To protect
itself against this encroachment, the
Northwestern is to begin Immediately
the construction of a road from Cas-
per, it's present terminus, to Lander,
and then into the Basin, paralleling
the Belgo-American route. 1t is said
that the accumulation of ties, bridge
material, rails and other construction
stuff is already under way at all of
the stations of the western divisions.
Having started, the Wyoming
scribes concluded they might as we'll
another line. At their sugges-
ton the Union Pacific is to buy the
segment of the Colorado & Southern
that runs up into the Chug Water re-
gion, forming a junction. at Orrin
Junction with the Belgo-American
road. Likely as not the company will
also buy the latter road and then pro-
ject it into the Yellowstone National
park.
If the editorial constructors succeed
n building any one of the roads they
ire planning into the Big Horn basin,
