Baton Rouge. La, May 17.-In the

inaugurated AZ governor and Jared Y

In his inaugural address Governor
Blanchard said: Mob law in con

be permitted under any circum'
stances"
On the negro question, the governor
said: The negro Is here. He Is q

valuable in his sphere. Within that
sphere he must be guaranteed the
equal protection Of the law, and his
education along proper lines-mainl,

The New York financiers know a
good thing when they see it; they sub
scribed for their allotment Of the new
Japanese loan five times over, the
amount allotted being twenty-five mil
lions. 1t is a fancy bond-five per cent
interest, and taken at ninety-three.
This will re another drain on the
American gold supply, and it will stop
the imports of gold which we have
been receiving from Japan and which
in a large measure Offset the exports.
This taking of the Japanese loan, how
ever, will not probably call for the &C.
tive expectation of gold to Japan; the
gold will remain in this country, to
draw against for material wanted by
Japan.-Salt Lake Tribune.

Hon. Frank w. MondeII.-

Hon. Frank W. Mondell.-
1t is a %foregone conclusion-a fact
conceded by everybody that Hon.
Frank W. Mondeil will be nominated
by a~cclamation at the state convention.
Mr.. Mondell's record is one that should
be a source of pardonable pride to him
self and of genuine satisfaction to the
people of the state which he so ably
represents.
The secret of Frank W. Mondell's
success Is the fact that he does things
that he is indefatigable In his exer'
tons to accomplish such things as he
knows will be Of benefit to his state or
for the good of the nation.
One of the most striking instances
of Mr.. Mondell's exceptional ability is
the phenomenal way in which he has
l"grown" in the past few years. From
the position of an unknown and un'
trained representative of a backward
western state, he has by his own un'
aided energy, force OF character and
~keenness of intellect, won for himself
the proud rank OF a chief in the lower
house. man whose power. strength
and ability is recognized not only by
his colleagues but by all the potent
factors of the party. Wyoming, to her
credit, be it said. appreciates thorough
ly his great service and as an evidence
of that appreciation. 1t will return hin
to congress by ever a greater majority
than hat which he received two years
ago.-Leader.

Paying For Water.

We believe that those farmers who

amount Of water drawn from the ca

Denver Field and Farm. In New Mex
leo last year the farmers who paid ac-
cording to the quantities received used
81 per cent less water than Others un
der the same canal who paid a fla.
rate and used what they wanted. y
similar test in Idaho showed that those
who paid for the quantities received
used 30 per cent less than those pay
ing the acreage rate, an average fol
the two sections Of % per cent. A
large majority Of farmers receive wa
ter from ditch companies of some kind
and wherever this is done the means
of inducing economy is available. Mos
farmers. however, use excessive quaint
ties of water in the belief that 1t is
necessary to do so, and hence we see
waste everywhere.
