Ginger Clarke was largely instru-
mental in the size of the Barons score,
and equally as instrumental in keeping
the Firecrackers' score down to what it
was. He hit the ball for single and
double, and secured one of the runs.
An error by Crozier resulted in four
runs being made in the fifth inning. With
three men on the bases, Deehanty came
to the bat and hit hot grounder through
short Crozier allowed it to get away
bases. Jordan is also credited with an
error in, that inning.
The Barons and the Crackers split al
most even at the bat the former secur-
ing only one more hit than the latter

tered except in the sixth and eighth, when
they made three hits in each inning
with one run in the former and two in
the latter.

liantly. Delehanty alone secured seven put

COLORADO LEGISLATURE
AGAINST Land Law Repeal.

Senator Taylor presented the follow
ing memorial to Congress. protesting
against the repeal of the desert land
laws:
your memorialist, the Fifteenth
General Assembly of the state of Colo
RADIO. respectfully represents to your
honorable body that;
Whereas, There is now pending be-
fore the Congress of the United States
bill providing for the repeal of all
existing desert land laws; and,
Whereas, 1t Is confidently believed
that the campaign for such repeal Is
being conducted largely in the inter
ests Of the land grant railroads for
the purpose of excluding from settle
ment all lands other than railroad
lands; and,
Whereas, The present desert land
laws facilitate the requirement OF
homes by certain of our citizens by
reclaiming and developing numerous
small intermountain valleys that can
not be reclaimed under any other law; |;
and,
Whereas, The federal land laws
nows now on our statute books have
been of great benefit in the develop
ment of this state and have operated
satisfactorily wherever their provis-
ions have been carried out in good
faith; and.
Whereas, We believe that any
change in the present desert land laws
of the United States would be detri-
mental to the great intermountain re-
gion and would especially retard the
development of our state; therefore,
be it
Resolved, That we earnestly protest
against the passage of said bill and
against any interference at this time
with the desert land laws of the
United States. And, further. we di-
rect that a certified copy of this mem
orial be forthwith sent to our senators
and Representatives in Congress-

Proposed Joint Memorial.

House Joint Memorial No. ], by Mr..
Baer, was introduced and referred TO
the committee on federal relations. 1t
follows:
ITO the honorable Senate and House
of Representatives of the United
States of America in Congress assem-
bled:
Your memorialists, the Fifteenth
General Assembly of the state of Colo
rado. respectfully represent to your
honorable body that,
Whereas, The act approved Janu-
ary IS, 1897, relating to the construc-
tion of storage reservoirs for free
stock water, upon the unoccupied pub
lie lands of the United States and the
withdrawal from entry of certain lands
under the provisions thereof. has been
and will be in the future OF great ben
eft in promoting the live stock indus
try In the West. Believing as we do
that the act should have provided for
the privilege of allowing springs and
water seeps to have been cleaned out
and fenced, and the waters conducted
on the outside of said reservoirs or
troughs and in less quantities than
now required by the regulation OF the
interior department and that the same
be kept for the free use of range stock.
"The provision would lead to the
preservation of much stock water. and
in the opinion of your memorialists
would in no way interfere with the dis
posal of agricultural areas; but would
prevent in a great measure the utter
destruction of many good springs and
sources of water supply by preventing
their being entirely destroyed by the
tramping of range stock; therefore,
be it
Resolved That our members of
Congress be urged to secure the pas
sage of an amendment permitting the
fencing of springs for the above pur-
pose"
