The artesian well law is a police
regulation, the real object of which
is to prevent the waste Of water, but
open wells are declared a nuisance
in order to make the law applicable.
The city of Roswell already has an
ordinance regulating artesian wells,
requiring them to be capped, and de-
claring open wells and those that
leak a nuisance. City Attorney Scott
points out hat there is a conflict at
once if the artesian well inspector of
the district attempts to do the work
in he city which has been provided
for by ordinance, and the city will
refuse to pay h artesian well tax
and take the matter into court, to
test the question whether or not the
artesian well bill applies to munich
palities, which have in themselves
been delegated police power SUFFICIENT
for the regulation of the same mat
tiers covered by the bill.

No wonder it is hard to start any
thing new in the way of a boom at
Santa Fe. A county about to be fore
ed into the hands of a receiver is
not the best place in h world to
arouse enthusiasm in the promotion
OF new industries. However, The
Record believes tina the resources
of Santa Fe county are ample for
paying off all Indebtedness, and hopes
Santa Fe will be able to hold up her

The Colorado Springs Telegraph
says tina from Grand Junction comes
the report that it's $500 acres of beet
are in the most f1ourishing condition
that any crop yet has been at this
stage of development. The region
about Eaton, Fort Collins, Greeley,
New Windsor, with almost $4,000
acres planted to beets, report 90 per
cent of the crop in fine condition n
the present season certain to far ex-
coed all former figures in the value of
the beet sugar production. Sugar
City reports the crop just four weeks
in advance Of last years production
and says that the growers of that vi
cinity. while they are being molested
somewhat by worms are fighting
them successfully. Rocky Ford Can
taloupes have suffered badly from
hail, but the storms came early
enough to enable the farmers to re-
plant to beets, and their season will
be profitable.
Six years ago not a dollar was col
tributed to the wealth of Colorado
from this source. Last year the
figure was Sc, 900, 900. This year will
see it again vastly increased, and in

City Attorney Scott some time since
submitted a written opinion to the
city council to the effect hat cities
were no longer limited by the Spring
er act in issuing bonds for the building
of waterworks, sewers, etc. The
amendment of his law removed the
old limitation in the total amount of
bonds that could be issued for all pur-
poses, but it left somewhat indefinite
the mou that might be issued for
waterworkS, etc. This point having
never been interpreted by the courts
since the amendment of the Springer
act, Mr. Scott thought that it might
be difficult to dispose of bonds until
all doubt was removed as to the
construction of the amendment.

People who ask a newspaper to
roast" the city council for doing or
not doing certain things, should go
to the council itself by petition OF pro-

man has no more license than any
other individual to criticize the men

council are elected, presumably, for
special fitness and desire to carry out
the wishes and best interests of the
