the territories. where the civilizing
irrigating ditch is still unknown. So
with other barons let US say about
the cattle baron, "Their bones are
dust, their good spurs are rust. and
their souls are the saints-we trust. )"
All the above has little or nothing
to do with the S. L. w. ranch, which
it was intended to say something
about. This ranch has nothing to
do with the baron business at all,
except for the extent of the domains,
which many an European baron
would be glad to exchange all his
debts for in preference to an Amer
bit of the old plains life left in the
back fields where the watchful eye of
tn. manager of the ranch cannot al
ways be present to see that the bows
do not utterly ruin each others skins
nor drink anything but standard
brands. There is still some ranging
done in the open domain lying just
beyond the 1000 acres belonging to
the ranch, but principally the stock
is fed at home, and instead Of the
long horned, half wild animals that
once sold for beef cattle, big herds of
thoroughbred Herefords are now
petted and fattened until they look
as sleek and round as pet pig.
The ranch lies just at the outer
edge of civilization in the spud belt
in the Poudre valley, the lands begin
ming about four miles east of Greeley
and extending along the Platte river
for a distance OF about nine miles.

FIGHT IS RENEWED
Water Question Again in Dispute
in Court.

The scrap between reservoir COM
panies of the Poudre river and Fort
Morgan ditch compares was renewed
last Wednesday when Superintendent
Of Irrigation John L. Armstrong Of
Fort Collins received orders from
Division Engineer L. r. Hope of the
first water division to shut down the
headRates Of all the reservoirs In the
Poudre valley now storing water.
The order was issued at the instance
Of water users in District 81, Morgan
county, where it was claimed the
water was needed for direct irriga-
tion. Thursday morning Superin-
tendent Armstrong was served with
an order from Judge Bennett Of the
district court Of Larimer county,
restraining the superintendent from
shutting down the headgate Of the
reservoir company. A couple Of days
later the Fossil Creek reservoir COM
pany followed suit and also secured a
restraining order from the court to
prevent the closing OF its reservoir
intake gates. Hearing on the merits
Of the claims OF the various contest
ants for the water in the Poudre
river was set for last Tuesday at
Fort Collins, and i6 is expected that
decision will be forthcoming at
once.
Last year the fight was begun by
the Morgan county bitches claiming
the need of the water for direct lrrl-
CATION. 1t was claimed at the time
that as soon as the inlets to the res
ervoirs in Larimer and Weld we're

JUDGE pARKeR's ACCEPTANCE.

The speech OF acceptance OF the
Democratic nomination for President
by Judge Parker has flavor Of an.
tlmlty which will commend II to
those Democrats who have kept on
voting for Andrew Jackson all their
lives. He commends Thomas Jefferson
highly and says that that eminent
Democrat summarized In his first In
augural most OF the principles upon
which the Democracy now relies. He
does not mention JefferBon's record on
annexation. nor refer to that instru-
ment OF government which was enact
ed by the Democratic party Tor the
government OF the new territory or
Loulsiana-an instrument that left tho
Inhabitants fewer rights Of self-govern-
ment by n great deal than the United
States has accorded to the Fflipinos.
with Jefferson's Ideas on the navy
the Judge is in full accord. Jefferson
ordered the battleships OF his day tied
up at their wharves and built fleet
of fat.bottomed stern wheel gunboats
to resist foreign aggression. The Judge
thinks our navy is entirely too large
and would restrict 1t to home duties.
As for the tariff. the Judge says the
Democrats cannot do anything any
how. as the Republicans will have the
Senate, 80 that Is In his opinion elm

One more topic the Judge takes up
