 Exhibit C.
 Third. The right to carry water in | the above canals, which has been
 granted certain persons by court de- | cree.
 Fourth: The right to use water for
 power purposes which may have been | granted under these canals.
 "In view of the fact that the pro-
 posed purchase by the government of | the distributing system of the Arizona | Water company will bring about a much more economical and satisfac- | tory distribution of water than exists | at present, and that whatever sum is | advanced by the government for the l purchase of such system, will even tually have to be repaid by the water users benefited, the minority share
 holders are prepared to accept and | promptly ratify whatever appraisal may be made by this commission" | MT. Chalmers stated that he had but recently been employed to prepare a statement for his clients and had had
 but one evening in which to look the | matter up, wherefore he could speak l but briefly and hoped for an oppor- | tunity to file a written brief. He ask | ed for a week but at the afternoon
 session it was announced that the
 commission could not hold the delib- erations open longer than this after
 noon at o'clock, whereupon MT. Chalmers said he would try and pre- | pare his brief by that time. The
 board held that as there had been sev- | eral months notice to the people of this | valley they should have been ready by | this time.
 MT. Chalmers related the, history of
 the old canals from their beginning
 and showed how there had come into existence various holdings in the same | canals as stock, water shares, water rights, etc, until there was more water | sold than could be delivered. The diff | ference between Messrs. Chalmers and | Heard seemed to be that MT. Heard claims that whatever actual right to | water may exist in the canals the | change of ownership would not affect l it and unless it were some proportion | ate interest in the canal itself, it ought | not to be considered in the appraisal, 1 while MT. Chalmers urged that the
 water right was an easement in the | canal, a valuable holding that should

 Not including water rights owned by the Arizona Canal company in any of the canals, nor for balances due the Arizona Water company on contracts for sale of water rights, for the req son that we understand the commits sion is not to consider the water ap- propriations or water rights. We have also omitted from this statement the headgates and that portion of the Ari- zona dam remaining at the head of the Arizona canal"
 It Is explained that the Power canal is .15 of mile long and is six miles west of the head. The manner of arr irving at the value of the contract between the Water company ana the Electric Light company is as follows The contract was made for twenty five years, of which twenty years yet remain. During the five years it has been in operation it has paid about $6,C00 annually or six per cent on $100,000, so 1t is estimated to be an asset worth $100,000.
 Judge Ainsworth read his brief and wherever he thought necessary spoke verbally in further explanation. The minority interests were next listened to. Dwight B. Heard read to the commission the resolution passed at meeting of the minority share holders and published at that time, the nature of which is now, familiar. He then gave way to l.. H. Chalmers, whose verbal remarks will be mention ed after the brief filed by Mr. Heard, for the reason that the brief contains much in statement of facts of record referred to by MT. Chalmers. It will be understood that there is division of sentiment among the minority holders, Mir. Heard representing one opinion and MT. Chalmers the other. Follow ing is MT. Heards brief:
 Originally the shares of stock in the Maricopa, Salt River Valley and Grand canals were practically all held by the farmers and water users under these canals, there being 100 shares of stock in the Grand canal, 50 shares of stock in the Maricopa canal and 50 shares of stock in the Salt River Valley canal, each share of stock un- der the rules and regulations of the company being entitled to carry 100 miners inches of water.
 During the progress of the famous Wormser suit the Arizona Improve ment company acquired a bare ma jority of the stock of each of the above canals, and withdrew said ca nals as plaintiffs in said suit.

Tom Kelly may DO . very. very bad
man but be has mot done anything
since election last fall to add to res.

has been In the limelight for three
years. Gov. Bailey spent thousands
Of dollars OF state money "investigat-

printed hundreds OF columns Of abuse
OF him. Gov. Bailey found nothing
on which to base . charge Of impeach-

1.-THE fact Of the matter Is that
Governor Hoch, Auditor Wells and l
have all neglected our duty Of exam
lining the state treasury under this
new law. We are equally guilty, and
! am not In favor Of making g scaps-
goat Of Kelly. II we had examined

for $3.50, 900 Immediately although he
has until next month to furnish At

it. Lawrence citizens alone put their

Kelly may be very bad but the
fact Is that the people Of Kansas are
getting very weary Of the everlasting
dIng.donging at him when nothing
has tranSpirsd to change the condi'

Inasr LIE Of De ersAt Secretary.

Inner Life Of the Great Secretary.
A representative American was the
great secretary, diplomat and states
man, John Hay. His life from his
first ride In the baby carriage to his
last ride In the heArso, has on the sec
ular or this worlds side been pOr-
trsyed by brilliant writer's in Naming
editorials In great dailies and popular
magazines, but sS 10 usual in these
journals, little or nothing 10 said
about the spiritual life. Why not
give to the world at large CLEAN Of
the peerless Secretsry's inner or re-
ligious life. John Hay was q mem
Der Of the congregation Of the Church
Of the Covenant. Washington. D. G.
The pastor Of that church. 7. s. Ham
| lin, D. D., has written short article
for the Congregstionalist on "The
Christian Faith and Virtues Of the
Great Secretary Of State" Among
other things he says:
"LaGt September Of Lake SunsPee.
In long daily walks among And over
the mountains In which he delighted,
the talk turned upon personal re-
ligion. The words are too sacred for
print; but they were imbued with the
deepest reverence and the most child,
like faith. His belief In Immortality
was calm and abiding, and sustained
him even in the crushing blow Of bis
older sons tragic death" y
Az to his relation to the church
which be attended the pastor thus
testifes:
"Mr. Hay, was one Of the earliest
promoters OF the Church Of the Cove
nant In this city. and one Of the larg-
est givers to Its work, as well as to
ell the good causes that o Christian
church represents. He was long q
faithful trustee. deeply interested in
all the important work that this Office
implies. Gifts were made with
modest alaCrity and a quiet. i thank
you for the opportunity that vastly
multiplied their value. Every sub
scription read, Mr.. and Mrs. John
Hay
"Amid worldwide grief and sense
Of loss, none, outside the family itself,
is deeper and more sincere than that
Of the Church Of the Covenant, which
mourns not only generous supporter
and q personal friend, but a very
positive and important factor in its
spiritual life, worship, and influence. !"
All know him to have been q poet
Of unusual ability, while 1T is known
to comparatively few that he was
writer OF hymns Of deepest fervOr and
beauty.
One Of these, "Sinsi and Calvary"
has this closing:
Almighty God! direct us
To keep Thy perfect Lawl
o blessed Saviour, help US
Near to Thee to draw
Let sinais thunders aid US
Toguard our feet from sin,
And Calvary's light inspire us
The love Of God to win"
Mr.. Hay gave the following account
Of the writing Of this hymn: Il
wrote the hymn several years ago be-
cause l felt like 1t. can say nothing
more Ineligible than that" The
quoted stanzS Of the above is valuable
because Of its recognition Of both the
law and the gospel. Many misled
teachers and hymn writer's
ignore the law, and vainly try to fill
the people who have no conviction Of
sin with the joys Of the gospel.
To the memory Of John Hay, the
Christian, we will drop an additional
tear who have already mourned him
