Miss Mary Dumbauld and Mr..
Chas. w. Beach were united in mar
riage Wednesday evening at 7:30
o'clock, at the residence of the BRIDES
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Levi Dum-
bauld. The ceremony was perform
ed by Rev. R. B. Norton, using the
Presbyterian ring service. Miss
Cora Dumbauld played the we'd
ding march. There were no attend
ants, and only the immediate family
and a few intimate friends were
present. An elaborate wedding sup
per was served after the ceremony,
to the accompaniment of the small
boy "charivari." Many beautiful
silver and cut glass presents attest
ed to the esteem of many friends.

Judge saIIey's Water Decision.

The question of whether water for
irrigating purposes may be diverted
from the ditch through which it was
originally appropriated, to another
beadgate further up or further down
the stream is perplexing one, and
one which has not yet been finally
and authoritatively decided.
In a recent case in this city Judge
Dixon decided IN favor OF such a
transfer, while Judge Bailey at
Buena Vista decided against the pro-
posed transfer of large quantity
of water from Chaffee county to
Otero county.
The supreme court will be called
upon to pass upon the meaning OF
the law as it now stands, yet after
that decision is rendered there will
remain the question of whether the
law ought to be allowed to stand as
it is. There is also some doubt as
to whether the law sufficiently COW
ers the facts that have arisen recent
ly with regard to water transfers.
Looking at the matter from the
standpoint of the Chaffee county peo-
pie there is plain element OF right
and Justice in their position. 1t is
not the farmers alone that are inte-
rested in the matter of water supply.
Water is also the life of the cities.

1t Is announced that Hon. Harry st
George Tucker. president of the
jamestown Exposition Company, will
take the stump this month to nd
yocato the election OF Democratic
congressional nominees In Virginia.
The Ninth district, now represented
by Colonel Campbell Semp. the Vir-
ginia Republican "boss," liz said to
have been selected as the political
field for Mr.. fuckers labors.
We believe that man should be
5 consistent and firm In the expression.

ficers OF the company have no right
to jeopnrdize the interests of the
celebration by exploiting their pollti.
scal views or being unduly active in
the support of any party or candi-

the head Of an enterprise of such
