CITY COUNCIL MEETING.
The Water Question Was the Topic
of Chief Importance That Claimed
tho Councils Attention.

At the regular monthly meet
ing of the city council Monday
evening, the water question was
the chief matter of business to be
considered. An effort was made
to raise the amount collected
from the Santa Ice railroad COM
pany to 5000, but compromise
was finally made on S425. which
is a considerable advance on the
former amount. The attention
of the water committee was
called TO the fact that good
many water users in the western
and southern parts of the city
have complained of late that they
could get no water for even
domestic uses. Ii was arranged
that the committee should make
tour of inspection to determine
If possible the cause of this scar
city of. water in certain localities.
Mayor Abeytia has since stated
that the trouble lies in the fact
tnat an excessive amount Ol water
is used by some parties for irri-
cation and the further fact that
the filling of the reservoir has
diminished the pressure at certain
hours. Mayor Abeytia says, also,
that an effort will now be made
strictly to enforce the ordinance
regulating the use of water at
certain prescribed hours, and that
pipe will be run through the
reservoir so that the pressure will
not be materially reduced while
the reservoir is being filled. The
city authorities seem disposed to
do the best they can to remove
all grounds of complaint in this
regard.

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.

Santa Fe, n. NJ, June 5th,
1905.
Warmer and more seasonable
weather prevailed the last week,
the temperature averaging about
3 degrees daily above normal.
Local thunder showers continued
and in some northeast districts
considerable water fell, but
generally showers are beginning
to be needed and the flow of
streams is decreasing, although
irrigation water is still abundant.
Small northern districts again
received slight damage by hail
and others by flood, but it is
thought that the first reports of
great damage along the Rio
Grande valley, especially in the
district south of Albuquerque,
were magnified considerably.
Wheat, rye and oats are doing
well: corn is being cultivated in
many localities and is generally
growing nicely. Some potatoes,
late gardens and beans are being
planted, but planting is mostly
done. Early gardens stuff, onions,
radishes, lettuce, beetS, potatoes,
peas, asparagus, spinach, rhu-
barb, ctc., is plentiful in the
markets. Fruits continue very
promising, cherries are ripening
in the central Rio Grande valley
and gooseberries are almost ready
for market as far north as SOUTH
ern Rio Arriba county.
Alfalfa harvest is well advanc-
ed in central counties and the
plant is blooming in northern
valleys, with harvest very near
at hand. Range grasses continue
excellent and stock is steadily
improving. Lafnbing is about
over in northern counties but
shearing continues; the clip is
coming TO market rapidly.

KANSAS CITY LIVE STOCK MARKET.
Special to the chieftain,


Kansas City. Mo, Monday.
June 5. 1905. Cattle receipts last
week were moderate and the as
Sortmcnt of the different classes
was just about right for the
demand, except Stockers and feed
ers. All kinds of killing
cattle advanced Is to 25 cents,
except some slippery grass steers
which have just begun to make
their appearance. StockerS and
feeders lost 10 To - cents, light
stockcrs and stock calves losing
most. Receipts today are eN-
cep,ioually heavy at 1900 head,
but one half of these are in the
Quarantine division; general
market TO Is lower. Good kill
ing steers from Fowler and Rocky
Ford sold last Wednesday at S.
20 TO $40, weighing 1900 to
l,S00 lbs. Hay feds sold during
the week at S4.65 to S5.2s,
Panhandle stockerS at SS.S5 TO
S4.25 aud a big string of 140 lbs.
Panhandle yearlings at So. 10 to
$3.50. No Colorado or western
cattle are included in the receipts
today, but several shipments of
Panhandle steers are among the
receipts. Just now, nearly all
the stun coming from Colorado
and the northwest goes to the
killers, while the Panhandle stuff
is taken by the country buyers.
The sheep market advanced 10
To Is cents last week, lambs get
ting the full strength of the
advance as they are exceedingly
scarce. No lambs of any conSe-
qucnce are being received here
from any source and the most
dependence is on the Arkansas
Valley stuff which is getting
scarce and is poor in quality be.
ing the wind-upS OF winter feed
ing. Wooled lambs bring S6. rs
to SIPS, Clipped lambs S5.75 to
SOILS. The supply oil Texas and
Arizona muttonS was very light
last week after Wednesday and a
good many orders remained
untitled at the end of the week.
Supply today is 10000 head,
market on sheep 10 lower, lambs
steady. Mixed Arizona sheep
sold at S4.65 today, Arizona
lambs and yearlings mixed at
S5.25, yearlings and wethers at
81. 90, mixed Texas sheep sell at
-. 40 to S4.65. Texas ewes bring
S4.25 to $500. Very few stock
or feeding sheep are being receiv-
ed, although there is a good
demand here for stuff OF that
class. Mutton receipts are heavier
at all the markets than last year,
but the general mutton situation
is improving rapidly each season
so that the demand keeps ahead
of the increased supply.

PENNSYLVANIA CHANGERS.

over 5000 New Members Added to
the Roll the Past Year.
The Pennsylvania state grange met
this year at Erie, w. +. Hill of Mont
Alto, worthy master, presiding. Sec
retary Altman reported 6.204 new
names added to the rolls during the
past year This does not include those
reinstated. There are now $40 oranges
in the state as against 501 for last
year The receipts for the last year
were $11 ,440S0. The sixth degree was
conferred on class of 215. The cleo
tion of officers occurred, and w. f.
Hill was chosen master for the tenth
year Evidently Pennsylvania believes
in keeping good men in office, for they
have reelected their oveTseer for the
seventh year; lecturer, seventh year;
treasurer, fourteenth year; secretary,
eleventh year; gatekeeper, seventeenth
year. and assistant steward, seventh
year
The legislative committee made one
of the most important reports ever
submitted to the state grange The
hon. W llllaln 1. hctIedr! WAS 1T the
head of the committee. The report
favored legislation allowing trolley
companies to carry freight; tax OF
l mill on corporate and personal prop
crty for road purposes, to be distribut-
ed according to public road mileage;
favored laws whereby license taxes
under both county and municipal laws
be paid to the counties in which such
taxes are collected; favored the initia-
tive and referendum, parcels posts and
postal savings banks. 1t also favored
increasing the public school appropria-
tion to 100000, the amount appropri-
ated at the last session being 100000.

THE GOVERNING POWER.

should He Exercised by the People,
Not "a Few Individuals.
Justice Potter of the supreme court
of Pennsylvania objects to the Gar
field plan for the control of interstate
trusts on the ground that it would tend
to give the national government 'des-
potic" power.
The Inter Ocean holds no brief for
Mr. Garfield. There may be better
way than this But be that as it may,
the Inter Ocean cannot but recognize
the fallacy of Justice POtter's argu-
ment.
The ''despotic' power to which JUS
tice Potter objects exists already in,
for instance, the railway business.
There it is in the hands of a few men,
who rapidly are becoming fewer.
The American people have this "des-
notic" power over them their indus
tries and their trade now. The ques-
ton at issue is not whether this power
shall exist 1t does exist. The ques-
ton is. Who shall exercise it?
shall it be j. Pierpont Morgan. James
J. Hill, L. II. Hartman, John d.
Or shall it be the government of the
whole American people?
Tie men who now hold this power
have no direct responsibility to the ma
ton. If they abuse their power, there
is no speedy and sure way of restrain
inc them. They cannot be tried and
found wanting before the people and
then be dismissed. at the polls.
If the government of the whole peo-
ple held this power it would be sub
iect TO check, restraint. change and
correction of any abuse at every ma
tionIl election.
This power cannot be destroyed with
out tearing down the whole fabric of
modern industry and commerce and re
building it from the foundations. This
power must continue to exist.
Where shall it he lodged: In the
hands of a few men, practically free
from responsibility for abuses, or in the
hands of the government of the whole
people?
Who shall be the "despots ?'-Chica-
go Inter Ocean
