Mayor Branson in behalf OF the

employed Miss Bingham as nurse for
the patient, and he will be given
possible carr and attention.
When K1uzane was Knocked down
he WAS Immediately secured SO that
be was past doing any further harm
in bis being relieved of his revolver
md he was dragged out on llle street
ANA taken to the county Jail. The
blow that young Otterson delivered
battered up his face somewhat and
he was a tough looking object.
krnzane said that be came here
about Two months ago from Wyoming
and Montana, where he had been
following the occupation of IA COW
boy. and that as soon as be got filled
up with booze he thought he ought
to shoot up the town when the bar
tenders refused to give him more
liquor. Up to two weeks ago he has
been working with a threshing crew
north of lown and since then he has
been working for James Allen ina
livery stable. When asked why be
shot the policeman Kruzane said that
there was no occasion for it, that
There had been no quarrel between
then. He said he shot only because
the policeman kept coming toward
him after he had warned him off.
He said that he now regretted the
act.
For two hours or more the street
around the scene of the shooting was
crowed with men, who discussed the
murderous attempt in excited tones
and it wouldn't have take much for
a crowd TO have Organized, gone to
the jail and got possession of the
prisoner a strung him up.
The act vas a cowardly one in
striking down an officer who was
inclined to show l%eniency to the fell
low, when he would have been justi-
fed in shooting his mar first. Po-
liceman Newman has been on the
night force only a few months, but
in that time he has displayed excell-
ent judgment in his work end has
shown that he can do his duty fear-
lessly and responds to any call that
is made on him. He has become
very popular with the general public
since he has been in the employ of
the city. His hundreds OF friends
hope earnestly that he will pull
through his present serious condition
and that be will be eventually re-
stored to health.

AN UNJUST CRITICISM
a Country Correspondent Spent $l.s5
at Corn Palace and is Kicking
About It.
About It.

Editor Smith, OF the Mt, Vernon
News, published in our neighboring
town, evidently shares the belief of
n Of his hairbrained correspond
ents, who lives down in Slorla town
ship, Aurora county. We don't OBJ
ject to the truth when it is published
about Mitchell and the corn palace,
but when a fellow will write a DELHI
.elate lie about either it becomes just
q trifle tiresome.
The correspondent stated that
gamblers and street fakirs with
their usual amount ..of thieves and
p%ickpockets were for a small COM
pensation to the city, allowed on
every street colner.n The blunder-
ing idiot who wrote that statement
evidently hasn't the faintest con-
ception of what he was trying to say.
If there ever vas a time when the
city officials put their foot down on
gamblers and fakirs operating OF the
streets during corn palace or any
other time, it was this year. The
officials could have licensed thirty of
these fakes if th y had wanted to turn
them loose on the visitors to Mitch
ell, but they we're all turned down,
and VIZ defy that parasite on truth
to prove his assertion in the smallest
degree.
The poor o~verworked church ladies
were also accused Of grating in over
charging for meals. In every in
stance tie prices of meals were hung
up outside and if this specimen of
depraved humanity couldn't read
why it was his W fault, and il he
failed to get his moneys worth for
35 cents he is to blame, but we don't
believe for a moment but what he
filled his tank to the limit when he
got in front of the food that was
served ard all te lacked was a scoop
shovel to make his dinner complete.
That This correspondent stands in
the nature Of a fool rather than a
critic is his criticism of the Kilties
because they played SO much CLASH
cal music,
OF all the bands that have played
in Mitchell's corn palace since 1891
the kiltles played the most popular
music and that was the opinion ex'
pressed by the thousands OF visitors
to the corn palace, but it remained

for N bumptious critic out in Au-
lora county to discover something
that was not apparent to anybody
else.
Just why Editor Smith would per-
nit such a screed as that to Slip into
his newspaper. unless lie ieit the
same way, is mole than we can un-
derstand.

New York, Aug. 31.-Following the
notable reception and address at Mad
ison Square Garden last night, VIM.
Jennings Bryan rested at the Victo-
ria Hotel, in preparation for his trip
into Connecticut today. Surrounded
by hosts of friends, including repre-
sentatives of all the New England
states, ne will speak today at Central
Green in New Haven on the very spot
where during the heated campaign of
1896 he was frequently interrupted
by the youthful element annoying his
auditors.
When Mr.. Bryan left Madison
Garden last night he was too weary
to address the outside crowd at any
length. To the waiting ones he said.
in part: I'VE do not look for faults
in those we love; l have found that
the human heart is sound every
where; l have found, too, that the
human sense of justice is sound ev-
erywnere; it is strong in this coun-
try of ours. Upon this strong sense
of justice we must build our trust.
We must appeal to this sense of JUS
tice and say that among our business
world there must be no giants. We
must say that no man that God has
made should be forced to take an
inferior position to the corporate man
made by The trusts. We must have
government monopolies, if monopolies
are necessary, or when they are nee
essary."
Wnen Mr.. Bryan reached the hotel
Mr.. and Mrs. Hearst were waiting in
the lobby. How do you do. Mr..
Hearst" said the Nebraskan, Wont
you come up stairs and meet Mrs.
Bryan?" Mr. Hearst accepted the in
yitation, and he and Mrs. Hearst
went up stairs to the Bryan apart
ments, where they stayed some time.
Among Mr.. Bryan's callers this
morning was delegation of natives
of India. headed by Prof. Baraka Tul-
lah. They presented an address to
Mr.. Bryan in which they thanked him
for his reference in his speech last
night to British rule in India. Prof.
lultan Sd1u. we CIlluIGn u
stan residing in New York, respect
fully approach your noble presence to
offer our sincere and hearty thanks
on behalf of s00.0O0.00O inhabitants
of India for the service you have rem
dered that country by exposing the
falsehood and hypocrisy which char
acterize the British rule in the Ind
ian empire"
Mr. Bryan left the Grand Central
station on the regular train for Con
necticut at 100 p. m. today. A party
of friends accompanied Mr.. Bryan II

Frank w. Blackmar, dean of the
Graduate School and professor in
charge of Political Economy and So
cio1ogy in the Kansas State Univer-
sity at Lawrence, left last night for
Carlsbad after a stay of several days
in Roswell and vicinity. Prof. Black
| mar is doing special work this sum-
| mer, in that ae is assisting in writ
ing an economic history of the United
States, which is to be published under
| the direction of the Carnegie Institu-
| ton at Washington, D. c. He has
| charge of the department which re-
lates to irrigation of arid lands. He
is doing this summer work partly for
his education, or "to learn something
as he puts it. When the work is com
| able to learn something.
More specifically, Prof BlackniaT
has been looking into the methods of
| irrigation, the water supply, the land
| being irrigated and the land that may
| be irrigated. He has been all over
the United States, wherever there is
| any irrigation systems of consequence
and the Pecos Valley is the last place
| he is to visit
! Speaking of Roswell, the visitor
said; t'The town is a delightful place
have been greatly pleased with it,
both as to its buildings and public in
situtions, and as to it's people. After
visiting many cities and towns, l find
that Roswell has a superior class of
| citizens The citizenship is not only
high morally, but the people have en-
ergy and push. AS to the surround
| ing country, l find there is about 75,-
900 acres under irrigation. This area
can be increased to three times it's
present amount, and the crop output
can be increased five fold. Without
| any other means of support, in the
way of railroads, manufacturers, etc,
that amount of farming insures a
town of 10000 to 25,00O people,
| Continuing, Prof. Blackmar said; 81
| visited the Hondo Basin. 1t is a fine
piece of work. 1 see no reason why
the project should not yield all it has
promised. A much larger area of
land can be irrigated with pumping
plants around Roswell than is sup.
posed. 1t can be done profitable, al
so. Although it is not easy and as
highly profitable as with an artesian
well, / know that there is good pro-
fit in irrigating pumping. 1t takes
much less water to irrigate than is
supposed, and less than is used, gen
orally l find that the fault, general
ly, is that too much water is used
By careful investigation, | find that
the United States over an average OF
twice the water needed to raise the
crop is used. That means that even
tually twice the amount of land now
under cultivation, will be watered by
the same amount of water now being
used. The secret of success in irri
eating is to use the right amount OF
water at the right time. What the
people of Roswell need is to study
irrigation"
