TO AN oLpLovER.

There is silyery frost IN your ha'r, old boy,
There are lines on your forehead, too;
But your clear eyes speak of the peace and Joy
That dwell In the heart with yeu.
For the passing Of youth you have no regret,
No sighs for the summer gloom
And the lovers moon. They are with you yet
In the light of the lamp at home.
In your summer Of youth. in that sunny hour
That will come to you never again.
When you wooed your love. as the bee the
flower,
The sweets that you gathered then
You have hived and stored for your later life,
And your heart Is the honeycomb-
Al! I've seen your face when you kissed your
wife
In the light of the lamp at home.
Oh. you rare old yer! Oh. faithful old knight!
With your sweetheart Of long ago.
You are many days from the warmth and
light
OF the summers you used to know;
But you need not yearn for the glamour and
or the fields you were want to roam.
On. the light for the hearts thas are growing
old
Is the light of the lamp at home!

THE HIGH LINE CANAL
FAVORED BY BROOKS

Someone seems to have been ques-
tioning the attitude of Hon. f. Il.
Brooks, upon the question of the
promotion of our high line canal
scheme. In letter to gentleman in
this city Mr.. Brooks, the representa-
tive at large from this state has the
following to say of the matter. II
certainly seems as If Mr.. Brooks in
tends to do the best he can for us.
Representative Brooks evidently
can be relied upon to do all in his
power to forward the scheme.
If anything has been charged
against Representative Brooks il has
not been OPPOSITION to the scheme for
the building of the canal, but indif-
ference. But even in this he should
not be blamed If the matter has
not been pertinently presented to
him. The trouble with the people
here has been that they have not
had sufficient assurance to make
demand upon the services of their
representatives. In the matter of the
promotion of this scheme before the
Interior department of the govern
ment They have been too easily mis-
led by the statements of engineers.

we must do in the matter is to go
right to Washington and push the
matter forward as hard as possible.
The following is Congressman

My dear Sir:
am reliably advised that 1t is
currently reported in Grand Junction
that | am opposed to, or Indifferent
about, high line canal which the
people of Grand junction are anxious
to have built by the Reclamation serv-
ice.
think you personally know that
there is no basis to the fact and that
the contrary is true. but lest there
be any uncertainty about lie, | wish
you would state as definitely as pos
sible to any interested parties that ]
have never felt otherwise than very
cordial to this project. My idea is
that it is one of the most avail
able in the state and should receive
early attention at the hands of the
Reclamation service.
| have more than once made this
position known to the commission
and shall not deviate therefrom. |
shall do everything that anyone pos
sibly can to advance the proposed
canal.
With regards,
Very truly yours,

Aside from the compiled

1t is said that another paper
