Rocky Ford's water problem seems to be
in fair way for satisfactory solution. 1t
will be remembered that at the recent
bond election in total vote Of 246 there
was majority Of / 4 against issuing bonds.
Since that election those who voted
against the bonds have almost unanimous
ly seen the matter in the right light and
have joined in petition to tho council
asking that the city. without delay. issue
and sell city bonds drawing s per cent
interest. and with the proceeds install =
complete water system. the source Of sup
ply to be water from artssisn wells at =
total cost Of from $4,000 to 100000.
but in no event to exceed 100000 for
all purposes. this being the second pro-
position named on the unofficial ballot
used at the city bond election and which
received majority Of all the unofficial
ballots cast. The petition contains the
names Of tho business men Of Rocky Ford
almost unanimously. not one dozen being
absent. Tho petition contains tho names
Of 262 Taxpayers. being l6 more than
the total vote at the bond election. Such
universal signing Of the petition shows
conelusively that the citizens and busi-
ness men feel that tho betterment OF the
water supply is the all-important aues-
ton just now. II is hardly conceivable
that any citizen Of Rocky Ford would for
a moment think Of antagonizing tho most
clearly expressed will OF the people.
However. it's rumored that tho Electric
Co. will enioin the issuing OF the bonds.
1t will bs remembered that II was the
work Of President Cuddebaek. Of Pueblo.
and Vice President Goblin. Of the Electric
Co.. which caused the defeat Of tho bonds.
Their work was directed especially
against the identical proposition which
the business interests Of the city have
just endorsed so smphatiealiy. But We
hardly think that these gentlemen will
try to buck against the almost unani-
nous wish Of the business interest Of the
city. II they do some early and radical
measures should b inaugurstsd 70 show
the Electric Co. that Il does not OWE

citizens Of the city. and u Il shall eoatinua

For the first few weeks after his name
was mentioned for governor. Senator
Swink's prospect for the nomination was
only a possibility. But tho more the
matter has been considered by the poo
ple Of tho state the more desirable his
candidacy has appeared. and today his
chances for tho govsrnorship can fairly
be stated to be highly probable. Mr..
Swlnk has been entirely aloof from the
squabblos which have made such havoc
with Republican harmony during the past
few years. and he is widely looked upon
as Just the candidate to unite all factions
for another big Republican victory.
1t seems impossible for Denver to get
out Of the grip Of tho public utility co.,
porations. The election on Tuesday re-
suited in the selection Of both Republican
and Democratic ofiicials-all. however.
corporation nominees. Franchises were
granted with great liberality. tho city
giving away millions practically without
compensation. Fraud Is claimed and
past elections have been such as to easi-
iy make tho people believe the charge.

are not content to control Denver but as
pire to own tho state. Paris may be

Senator G. W. Swink. Of tho Arkansas

governorship and is feeling around. There
arc lots OF folks who do not regard his
candidacy seriously. but this is . time for
people TO get fooled. and so other aspir-
ants would be wise TO take the mattsr
seriously. Il looks 10 us as u Senator
Swink could defeat any man whom the

"she Thinks She Is a Sibson Girl"
walks into the parlor to see Miss limo
gene Cordelia Hoffbrew.
'Wie gents, Imogene!" says Con
salvo.
"Simlich!" says Imogene, standing
at right angles near the piano because
she thinks she is a Gibson girl.
'Imogene, dearest" Gonsalvo con
tinues; 81 called on your papa in Wal
street yesterday to find out how much
money you have, but he refused tC
name the sum, therefore you have UNI
told wealth."
Gonsalvo pauses to let the Partisan
clock on the mantel tick. tick, tick!
He is making the bluff of his life
you see, and he has to do even that on
tick
Besides, this furnishes the local
color
"Tmogene! Oh! Imogene! will you be
mine and l will be thine without
money and without the price"
Gonsalvo pauses to let this idea
get noised about little.
Then he goes on: BE mine, limo
gene! You will be minus the money
while l will have the price!"
Gonsalvo trembles with the passion
which is consuming his pocketbook
and then Imogene turns languidly
from a right angle triangle into more
of straight front, and hands Con
salvo a bitter look of scorn.
Then Gonsalvo grabs his revolver
and, aiming it at her marble brow
eXclaims: Marry me this minute OF
1 will shoot you in the topknot, be
cause l love you"
Then papa rushes into the room and
Gonsalvo politely requests the old gen
tleman to hold two or three bullets
for him for a few moments.
Gonsalvo then bites deeply into a
bottle of carbolic acid, and just as the
coroner climbs into the house the pic
lures of the modern lover and lover
ess appear in the newspapers, and
fashionable society receives a jolt.
This is the new and up-to-date way
of making love.
