knowledge that the present chief ex-
ecutive of this Territory intends to
see that the laws are faithfully exc

and teacher of honesty in public life
and in matters of public concern, that
he recognizes as a fact that the pol.

essential to the general welfare that
offenders against the election laws

THING THE DITCHES.
Work Will Be Commenced as Soon
as the Irrigating Season Ends.

as the Irrigating Season Ends.
Hearing the remark this morning
that the city was negiecting the mat
ter of tiling the irrigation ditcnes,
and that work should have begun
October first, the Record made some
inquiries, and learned that there
is no disposition TO delay the work
any longer than is necessary.
First, Mr.. Nilsson, manager of the
manufacturing company making the
tiles, informs us that all the Sling
but about three hundred feet has
been made and is ready for laying as
soon it becomes possible to shut
off the water from the ditch and al
low the ditch to dry out sufficiently
to permit the work of excavation to
begin. According to the contract en-
tered into April 10, 1906, the laying
of tile is to begin December first,
1906 The making cf the tiles was
to be finished by October first. and
probably this accounts for the con-
fusion of dates which had led some
people to believe that laying the
tiles was to commence October first.
AS far as Mr. Nilsson's contract is
concerned ne has practically com
pleted MS part of it,-and as for the
contract between the city and the
ditch company there is not believed
10 De any danger or Celdy.
The contract with Mr.. Nilsson calls
for $500 feet of 26-inch tiling at
$1.20 per foot; to be composed Of
one-fourth cement. The company fur
nishes all cement TO make joints
and all tools for construction work,
and conveys the tiling to the place
wnere it is to be used. The company
fixes bad work, guarantees it not to
leak more than the tiling on exhibit
tion at its yards, for one year after
acceptance. Work is to begin on or
before December 1st, 1906. The ce-
ment company is to make and lay all
tiling and to be paid as follows: so
per cent of manufacturer cost on
18th and 1st of each month, city en-
gineer to be judge of how much
made: for laying and constructing
into a conduit, so per cent on work
as it progresses, first and fifteenth
of each month, on report of city en-
gineer. Balance due to be paid wnen
all is done and accepted by the city
engineer.
The ditch company is to do the
grading and eXcavating, and pay so
per cent of the contract price to the
cement company. The city has al
ready set aside the money to pay
its proportion, but will not under the
costract be compelled to pay until
the work is completed. The ditch
company is paying Mr.. Nisson's COM
pany fifty per cent on the tiling as
it is manufactured. and has already
spent considerable money On the
contract, while the. city still has its
money safe in the treasury From
this it will be seen that the ditch
company is not in any manner trying
to get out of its agreement with the
city, but is living up to the terms
of its contract. The city will also do
its part when the time comes, and
there is no occasion for alarm about
the ditch not being tiled.

Washington, Oct because of
the constitutional questions involved,
the Supreme Court of the United
States today postponed the hearing
of the irrigation case of Kansas VS..
Colorado, relating to the disposition
of the waters of the Arkansas river
until full bench is secured by the
appointment of successor to JUS
tice Brown.
The U. S. Supreme Court today ex-
tended for sixty days the time grant
ed heretofore for pleading the case
of Kansas against the United States
and others, and authorized the de-
PENDANTS to file a demurrer. The case
involves large coal land grants to
the M. K. & T. R. r. Co., concerning
which much was said at the last ses-
sion of congress.
Chairman Shonts, of the Isthmian
Canal Commission, announced today
that the proposed plan of having the
canal constructed by contract will
not affect the personnel of the Canal
Commission nor the clerical force.
He also stated that the laborers and
employees of all departments will be
retained by the successful contractor.
Who is responsible for the crea-
tion of the Sa1ton sea in Southern
California, which already covers four
hundred square miles and threatens
to spread over two thousand square
miles if some means of diverting the
Colorado river cannot be devised?
This question is perplexing Mexican
and American diplomats, but for the
time being diplomatic representa-
tions are suspended and both coun-
tries are making efforts to check the
river which was accidentally turned
from it's course through the efforts
of the California Development Co.
to irrisate lands in Northern Mexico
and Southern California. Interesting
complications of an international ma
ture are threatened when uhe two
governments attempt to settle their
differences and make good the dam
age.

ters received a dispatch today from
Capt G. A. Bicknell, commander of

that no relief from the Red Cross So

people are now crowded in the room

idly as possible. There are now over
twenty pupils enrolled from outside
