The United States reclamation ser vice has recently selected various reser- yoir sites on the Grand and Yampah rivers in Colorado for the storage of water in connection with irrigation projects for the reclamation of exten- sive areas in southern California, Ne vada and Arizona. The government, in its work of preserving natural reser- voirs, as forming a necessary part of its irrigation projects, has recently es- tended its protection over a considera- ble portion of this mountainous area by the establishment of a number of forest reserves, for the purpose of con. serving and regulating the stream flow of the region, and eventually insuring a greater flow in certain of the streams The state of Colorado, in particular will derive much benefit, because its irrigation possibilities are so great The fact that when the reclamation work of the government was under taken only about per cent of the en tire land surface of Colorado was in cluded in what might be termed i'm proved lands, and that about two l thirds of that amount had been irTi gated, led. the reclamation service tC devote special attention to the feasi bility of retaining lands in Colorado As a result. various projects are now under consideration which will render cultivable for the first time extensive areas throughout the western portion of the state. One of them, the Un compahgre valley project, is already well under way. When it is completed sufficient land will be reelaimable t' furnish homes for at least 1.2OO fam flies in the Uneompahgre valley. Tn, progress which has already been made upon these various projects leaves n, room to doubt that the relation whiei the government Is establishing in Col orado between the mountain sides ana the valley lands is one which meani the agricultural development of larg, sections of the state.

Why He Was There.

The story of the Texas farmer who, when asked by the minister performing his wedding ceremony: Do you take this woman," etc, replied: 'Them's the calculations" reminds an Englishman of a similar occurrence in one of the eastern counties of England. The clergyman had reached the same part of the service, and the bridegroom re- piled: Why, bless Zee, sir, cum ere a-puppus."

Every big republican who has wis ited the national capital in the past two weeks has come out fiat footed with the statement that there will be no revision of the tariff at the coming session of the congress. and it seems that the ''stand-patters" are on top and have made the president crawl on his tariff revision proposition, says our Washington correspondent. They say that if it is necessary to get more money into the treasury to cover the deficit created by republican graft and extravaganza, that they will sock a dollar a barrel tax on beer and tax on coffee. They continue to talk about railroad rate regulation, but it is be coming the fixed opinion of the people here who are on the inside that they are doing so only to cover up the fact that they are going to talk about it all winter and then say to the people of the country that they did not have time to consider tariff revision legisla- tion. It will come about as near being a do-nothing congress as any that ever sat in the national capital. It will give the people more hot air and less re form legislation than any that have preceded it for manE1yssgssssIf the people ever want the things they seen to be asking for at the present time they will have to quit electing republi can congresses or they will continue tc get just what they are getting now graft, extravaganza and trust contro ] of everything in the country.

Glass Day Exercises Declared OFF.

Glass day at the Kentucky State
College, which is always celebrated
in a fitting manner by the students of
the institution, was to a certain ex-
tent declared off Wednesday on ac-
count of the breach between the facul-
ty and the senior class, growing out
of the "Grumbler" paper prepared by
Karl L. Dietrich, which caused the
suspension of that student for one
year, as well as the forfeiture of his
diploma and degree.
The only exercises participated in
by the students was the presentation
of the drinking fountain to the junior
class by the senior class, the hand
some testimonial having been pur-
chased by the seniors for the college
faculty, the program however having
been changed after the faculty had
taken such drastic action towards
young Dietrich.
After the faculty met on Monday
morning and refused to reopen the
Dietrich case, letter was prepared
by the young man in which he ex-
pressed regret over his action in pre-
pairing the paper, and his letter was
presented to the faculty Wednesday
morning, the body having met again
at the solicitation of Attorneys Stoll
and Shanklin, who have been engaged
by the elder Dietrich. After a care
full consideration of the letter the
faculty again announced that the
case would not be reopened by them.

JOINT debate that WAS held by Dolliyer

The Desired Thing.

Ia a recent symposium of opinion,
various men Of note in the fields OF
useful endeayor were quoted. AS a
rule, their statements showed color
ing from the particular environment
OF each According TO the point OF
view, some especial thing had i'm
pressed as of leading importance
Yet, through the opinions ran a de-
mand for peace This was not al
ways in the shape of a direct plea for
cessation of war, but embodied in
some under hope for human better
ment
Several would well be worth repro
ducing in full. but that of NJ E.
ingalls,, railroad president, is avail
able both as being brief and full Of
meat. Said Mr. ingalls,:
The most desirable thing To hope for
for our country Is that peace and pros
periIy shall prevail; that each man shall
respect the rights of his neighbor. and
t11s,t every individual may have his fair
opportunity
Thus in few words is covered the
entire problem. Peace and prosperity
constitute natural and common
hope. And when leach paan shall re-
The Washington times., 1905-01-09

spect the rights of his neighbor, and
every one have fair opportunity, the
hope will be realized To respect the
rights of a neighbor would end all
quarrel between men, and between na-
lions. 1t would mean that the burden
OF armies and navies need no longer
be borne by industry It would be
the end of crime, for every crime COM
mitted is an invasion of the rights of
society 1t would mean complete re-
Hgious liberty, social liberation, and
the Punishment of practices offensive
TO the conscience.
An early effect would be the close
OF all strife between capital and labor,
for in every contention that arises
nov there is right and a wrong,
and, perhaps sides seeing this
decline TO acknowledge it. Fair OPP
portunity would imply vast change
from present conditions. Certain lines
of endeavor are so absorbed by special
interests, that no opportunity exists
excepting in subseryieney to these in
terests. They are known as trusts
or combinations. Despite them, here
and there an individual does surmount
the artificial difficulties. but such an
instance is rare.
Mr.. Bryan in his contribution to
the consensus went back to the old
principle, Equal rights to all and
special privileges to none" which
seems TO hit about the same spot.

StoesseI'.s Horse.

With Valor never surpassed, Cen
eral Stoessel defended Port Arthur.
He was conquered by General Nogi
When the two meE met there was
curiosity as to what would be the
mutual attitude. They clasped hands,
as is the wont of gentlemen General
Nogi admired a beautiful horse be-
longing to General Stoessel and at
once had the animal as a gift. Oyama
had occasion to communicate with
Kuropatkin, whom his forces faced in
deadly array. and in this he compli-
mented the sturdy fight and the sol
dierly bearing of Stoessel.
Perhaps, ali these things are in
cidental, bu1 to US they seem to show
the folly and futility of war Enemies
whole months have striven TO de-
stroy each other at last meet on
friendly ground and each finds that
the other is not only human but
fraternal They find that there is
no enmity, but ready friendship.
While they were getting TO the pitch
of realizing all this thousands of
lives had been sacrificed and millions
in treasure. Why could they have
not reached some diplomatic point
of contact without wading to it
through blood2 Stoessel is no better
than before he fought, and Nogi no
better. They have simply achieved
an understanding
War is waste 1t is nothing less
and it is much more. General Stoes-
sci gave his horse not to General Nogi,
the victor, but TO Nogi, his friend.
When war is over there has been
no good accomplished that might not
have been accomplished by peaceful
methods, and if i'll has been wrought,
it would have been prevented by
diplomacy. But nations are blind as
individuals This war will proceed
Just as though there existed no sane
course of settlement, and in due time
