WATER PUBLIC PROPERTY.
County Officers Can Fix Rates on
Water for Irrigation.

Denver, June 23.-ln a decision
handed down by Judge Frank E. John
son. in the District Court at Denver,
t is held that boards of county com
nissioners have the right to fix the
.ates to be charged under irrigation
bitches in their counties.
The case in which the decision was
BANDED down yesterday was one in
which water users under a ditch were
suing the ditch company as a result
Of the company's refusing to grant
water at the rates fixed by the county
commissioners. The decision was in
all issues in favor of the plaintiffs.
The Northern Colorado Irrigation
Company, the defendant in the action.
has been operating an irrigating canal
since 1883. The water was procured
from the South Platte. The ditch
company claimed the right by contract
to sell the water at price between
Il and 81 an acre.
The county commissioners fixed the
rate at 81, while the company has al
ways charged S1.75. which. it claimed.
was reasonable under the contract
The court held that the law in effect
was that while the builders of canals
had right to charge a reasonable
rate for water. yet as the water was
procured from a public stream, the
company had to operate its plant for
the benefit of the public and the COM
missioIers of the counties in which
the company operated had right to
FIX what they believed to be a reason
able rate.
In his decision Judge johnson says:
when the defendant company con-
structed the canal it assumed to deal
with commodity that under the law
belonged to the public. 1t is held to be
against public policy to permit any
person or corporation to speculate in
the value OF water used for irrigation,
the most that is allowed is the right
of common carrier, and to charge toll
for transportation through its canal.
Under these circumstances the
county commissioners had the right to
fix the rates"

Growth of New York.

New York claims that by 1910 it
will have passed London in population
and will be the largest city in the
world. 1t is believed that the state
census being taken at present will
show that the city has passed the
100000 mark. In 1901 London had a
population of 4,53G.541. while in 1900
New York had 3,i27 .202 people. not
counting the population of Jersey City
and the other populous suburbs on the
New Jersey side. 1t would surprise
nobody, except possibly the Londoners,
If long before 1910 New York had be-
come the largest city in the world.

WORKING FOR GOOD ROADS.
National Good Roads Convention at
Portland.

Portland, Ore, June 23.-The fifth
annual convention of the National
Good Roads Association, the first of
the gatherings of national Importance
to meet in Portland this year, began
its work Wednesday.
The president, Col. ". II. Moore, in
his address, advocated support of the
Observation-Disclosures bill, now before
the National House of Representatives,
which will provide fund of s24, 600, 900
for the development of good roads, pre-
dieting that nothing can arise to curb
its ultimate triumph as an industrial
necessity.
Col. r. w. Richardson, secretary of
the association, submitted his annual
report.
The secretary's report reviewed at
length the activities of the association
since its first meeting in Chicago in
November, 1900. During the last year
the association constructed no object
lesson road, as was done in the first
four years of the associations exist
ence. Instead, 1t inaugurated a special
car campaign. sending out cars over
the Frisco system. the Missouri. Kan
sas & Texas, the Burlington, the
Northern Pacific. the Chicago &
Northwestern, the Union Pacific, the
Oregon Short Line and the Oregon
Navigation Company's system. All OF
these trips were under the personal SUI
pervision of w. II. Moore, president of
the association.
AS a result of these activities good
roads conventions were held in twelve
western states and forty-six good roads
associations were formed during the
wear. Reports gathered show that
where these campaigns were carried on
great impetus has been given to public
road building.
In the states visited during the last
year, and in the states traversed by
the Good Roads trains previously sent
out over the Illinois Central and South
raised by bond issues and direct tax
alton, are being expended in perma-
nent road construction.
Never before, since the days of ma
tional roads and turnpikes, the report
says, has there been so much active
road building accomplished in the
United States as during the last few
years.
Several of the states within the past
year have provided highway commits
sions and made liberal appropriations
for the support of their work. Among
these states are Maine. New Hamp-
shire, Illinois, Iowa and Washington.
Many other states have taken ad-
vanced steps looking to the utilization
of convict and county prison labor in
road building and the preparation of
road material to the several counties
and districts.

for health, or are simply taking va
cation.
The Grand Union, the largest SUM
mer hotel in the United States, set
among green trees with its long wings
enclosing a court with fountains and
flowers, grass and trees. music and
light, is throughout the season throng-
ed with guests. With the progressive
spirit always shown by its manage
ment, the Grand Union has again add
ed to its attractiveness by introduc-
ing acetylene gas to make still more
brilliant the evening hours. The ge-
nial proprietors believe in furnishing
their guests with the best of every
thing, and now, after investigating
and finding that Artificial Sunlight
can be had, they have installed COM
plete acetylene gas plant to produce
1t, and have connected upwards of six
about the house and grounds to this
little gas plant.
Like many discoveries of recent
years, which are coming into popular
favor, acetylene one of the most re-
cent. is very simply produced. 1t is
adapted for use wherever artificial
light is needed and the necessary ap-
paratus can be understood and oper-
ated by anyone.
The generator In which Acetylene
is produced by the automatic contact of
carbide and water might be termed a
gas plant. as it performs all Of the func-
tions of a city gas plant. The acct
ylene generator can be purchased for
few dollars and in any size, from
one adapted to furnish acetylene to
ten or a dozen burners for cottage.
up to the large but still simple ma
chine such as is now furnishing
Acetylene for six thousand burners
in the Grand Union.
Outside of large cities the use of
Acetylene is quite common. The
owner of the country home now de-
mands running water, gas and other
conveniences which a few years ago
were considered as luxuries, and
acetylene gas has met his require
ments, and gives him a better and
cheaper light than is ordinarily fur
nished in cities.
1t is well known that rooms lighted
with Acetylene are more comfortable,
because cooler. and more healthful be-
cause the air is not vitiated.
