MEANINGLESS GENERALITlEs.

1t is mighty easy to deal in glittering
generalities and blacken a mans char
acter. Writers of the present day VINO
are using the muck rake care very lit
tie for facts. They rarely ever state
anything of a specific nature which a
be got hold of by a man who desires to
defend his reputation in court, but SIM
ply go on decrying 'the system" and
pointing to what people say and what
Is believed to. be the case, and how peo-
pie are alleging this and that and the
other.
An article in Ridgways, republlshed
by our contemporary, is of this class
of literature. Senator Warren is
charged by inuendo with controlling
almost everything in the western half
of the United States and for what the
writer insinuates to be a corrupt and
unworthy purpose. There is no a d.
rect charge made, nor a specific in
named; just wild and glitterins
ceneralities of a meaningless nature,
other than that they are calculated to
null down the reputation of good men
men who have devoted their lives to
the building up of the west and to hon
orable business dealing with their fel-
low men.
If it is true that the Union Pacihe
has obtained coal lands through fraudu
lent methods, and that has not beeh
shown, what right has a paid magazine
writer to presume that Senator war
rem. CONGRESSMAN Mondell or any other
public man had anything to do with the
transaction? Until it is shown thatthey
are in some manner connected with
such alleged frauds, it is the basest
kind of a libel to drag their names In
There is a day coming when the
square deal will apply to newspaper
and magazine writer's with the same
force that it applies to men engaged
in other pursuits.

A RULE MODIFIED.

A Washington dispatch contains the
following interesting information to
desert land entrymen in the state of
Wyoming:
THE secretary of the interior
has decided that the desert land
entryman in the state of Wyo-
ming who has a certificate of the
state engineer based upon a report of
a water commissioner, that the claim
ent is in undisputed possession OF suf-
fcient water to irrigate the lane en-,
tered, and is using the same in accord
ahce with his permit, and who makes
affidavit that he has made a bona fide
appropriation of the wa4er and has fur
nished sufficient proof thereof and
shown compliance with the statute and
regulations OF the department, may pro-
cure a patent to his land. Heretofore
the department required a certificate
OF the engineer based upon action of
the state board of control, which can
only issue after all water rights upon
a particular stream have been ad-
justed."
Readers of The Republican will re
call that State Engineer Johnston took
this matter up with the department
some months ago and the ruling OF the
secretary modifying the former require
ment is a distinct victory for the state
engineer. Men who have fairly earned
title under the law will be able to get
patent without having to wait until
streams are finally adjudicated.
Desert entrymen may take the fol-
lowing as a fairly ~ccurate guide in
making final proof. They must show
that they have a clear title to sufficient

A Demonstration

The contracts for the two big canals
of the wyoming Central Irrigation com
| pany are to be let here on the 25th
inst, Notwithstanding the fact that the
democrats raised an awful howl before
election that the irrigation company
would put in the canal around Riverton
and never put in the others. People
will soon see now from whence came
the howl and who caused it. The con-
tract for these canals will involve
about $4,000, 900. This must all be put
UP by the company before they can
begin to realize anything from the sale
OF water rights. When one considers
the enormity of the undertaking they
can not help but wonder what amount
of the necessary four million could have
been raised by the so-called Settlers
Irrigation company, composed of foul
individuals, by the way, neither one of
whom could raise four million cents.
The letting of this contract will do
more towards establishing the conf.
dence of the settler in the future OF the
country than anything that could be
done. 1t will guarantee the develop

in San Fracisco is developing some very
strange things. 1t now tappears that
about dozen mlllionaires and multi
millionaires have expressedI willing
ness to help Mayor Schmitz tout, what
ever amount of money may be required.
One capilst goes so far as to state that
he will spend SI,000,000l in the interest
Of Schmitz if necessary. But Abe Ruef
must take care of himself These CAPT
talists will have nothing to do with him.
1t is said that overtures have been
made to the prosecution to deliver Ruef
provided Schmitz is saved, but that
they were turned down before anything
definate could be proposed. Heney is
confident he has evidence to convict
both Ruef and Schmtz.

Why?

Perhaps you wonder, now and then
What joy there is in living.
The cry within is hard to still;
The way seems always UP the hill.
The briars unforgiving
Perhaps you struggle with your load
Gripped tight in fingers horny;
IT seems, somehow, it doesn't pay
To worry on the self-same way
Where paths are rough and thorny.
The same old load, the same old hill
To tackle every morning,
With little hope when nights begun
That you may rest where setting sun
Is all the West adjoining.
! do not know, cannot still
The cry that in you rises
And yet 1t seems that all will blend
In golden sunset at the end
When God awards his prizes
The King who sets the tasks for men
Will surely send a heaven
To pay for all the weary days,
To pay for all the rocky ways,
And guide you safe to heaven!
