COLORADO WINS
Great Irrigation Suit Is Decided By
Highest Ceurt In The Land.

WASHINGTON, May g. The
supreme court Of the United States,
by Justice Brewer, rendered an
opinion today in the case of the
state Of Kansas against the state OF
Colorado, whereby it dismissed the
bill of the state of Kansas, and with
out prejudice, also dismisslng the
petition Of intervention on the part
of the United States without pre-
judice on its part to take such steps
- may be necessary to preserve and
improve the navigation of the Arkan-
sas river.
Taken as . whole, Kansas has lost
and Colorado has won. The United
States government, while it loses
upon some points, is sustained in
respect to the general policy Of the
irrigation of the arid lands. The
court practically holds that only by
applying the waters Of the streams
Of the arid region to the lands there
in, can the present developments be
sustained or any future development
obtained.
On most Of the points the CON-
tsntions Of the government and the
contentious of the state Of Colorado
were the same, but while the court
did not sustain every contention Of
the state of Colorado, nor all the
contentious Of the government with
respect to the use of the waters in
the streams in the arid region for
irrigation purposes, yet by denying
the main contention Of the state Of
Kansas, both the state Of Colorado
and the government Of the United
States have bssn successful.
The above shows that all present
investments in bitches in the Arkan-
sas valley are safe from further in
tsrfsrsnos BY the gang Of Kansas
politicians who have been holding
high carnival with the state funds
while conducting . hopeless law suit.
The result means much for the Sc
curity Of investments in this valley
snd is good news 70 all Of our oiti-
ssns.

Growing Industry.

Sugar consumption in the United
States in the fiscal year which ends
with the month Of June probably
will exceed that of any earlier year
in the history of the country. At
least the quantity of sugar brought
into the country in tho nine months
Of the fiscal year for which figures
are available is larger than in the
corresponding period .of any earlier
year, and the estimated quantity OF
sugar produced in the United States
in 1905 is larger than that OF any
earlier year. The total quantity OF
sugar brought into the country in
the nine months ended with March
1907, is 1892, ,OOO, 900 pound',spssk-
ing in round terms, while the guam
tity brought in during the first nine
months of the high record year, l9OS
was 3,eO8, 100000 pounds. The
quantity of sugar produced in the
United States in 1905 is, according
to the best estimates at present
available, 1904, 100000 pounds,
which exceeds by 14,ooo, 900 pounds
the figures of the former high record
year 1905.
Home production now supplies a
little more than one-fifth Of the
sugar consumed in the United
States, and our islands-Porto Rico,
Hawaii and the Philippinss-supPly
practically another one-fifth, 80 that
the United States is dependent upon
foreign countries for about three
fifths of its enormous sugar con-
sumption, aggregating more than
5000. 900, 900 pounds q year, or an
average of about 76 pounds q year
for each individual. In mere tonnage
the sugar brought into the country
exceeds by far that Of any other
article imported.
The growth in the sugar consump-
ton of the United States, whether
through increased importation or en-
laresd production at home has been
far more rapid than the growth Of
population. The average sugar
consumption in 1922, the first year
for which statistics 'of importation
and production are available, was q
little less than 8 pounds per capita;
by 1880 it was IL pounds per
capita; in 1840, IA pounds per
capita; IN 1850, % pounds per
capita; in 1850, 80 pounds per capi-
ts; in 1870, 35 pounds per capita;
in 1890, SO pounds psr capita; in
1900, 65 pounds per capita; and in
1905, 7e pounds per :capits. Prior
to 1860, q large proportion OF the
comparatively small quantity OF
sugar consumed in the United
States was of domestic production.
In 1880 approximately 30 per cent
of the sugar consumed in the country
was Of home production; in 1850,
AZ per cent; in 1855, 81 per cent; in
1860, the share Of consumption sup
piled by the domestic product drop
ped TO % per cent and in 1865. at
the close of the war, the domestic
product amounted only to per
cent of the total consumption. By
1870 1t was more than 10 per cent;
in 1880, more than 15 per cent; in
1890, about Is per cent; in 1895, 19
per cent; and in 1906, 20 per cent
of the total consumption.

Dollar whsa. onoe More.

The green bug had an inning in
the Chicago wheat pit yesterday, and
dollar wheat became more than 9
reality.
The extensive damage in certain
portions Of Kansas, Oklahoma and
Texas had the effect of turning all
spsoulstors into buyers, and the
market went up so fast that it waa
next to impossible for the recorders
70 keep track Of it. However, the
excitement subsidized after while
and the price went below 81 and
stayed there the remainder of the
day.
OF course this speculation in the
wheat pit merely gives an idea oi
the damage which has been done, q,
it u reflected in the minds Of these
men. It does not necessarily fol-
low that the evil is Is great - The
spsculstors would have the country
believe, Il 10 their business to send
the price up or down according te
their position in the market.
While undoubtedly serious dam.
age has been done, the bulls sno
bears will manipulate the market te
their own advantage, and the
public should not become fearful
over it's future bread supply, ,eto.-X

BEAR SCARES BIRD HUNTER
Fine Shot Only Made Animal Angry
and Shooter Skidooed

Brattleboro, Oct. 21-Edward V.
Morse had an interesting experience
with bear just before returning yes
terday from n vacation in Stratton. He
was out hunting birds when he heard a
rustling sound and looking in the direc
ton from which it came he saw the
limb OF an apple tree being shaken VIC
lently.
Surprising that some hunter was in
the tree he went over to get some of
the fruit and when only short dis
dance off he saw the occupant OF the
tree was not man, but black bear.
In the foliage the bear appeared to be
cub so. thinking to drive him away,
Mr.. Morse fired, although his gun con
tanned only bird shot. The result was
a surprise to both.
A fierce growl fell upon the hun
ter's ears and full grown bear back
ed down tire tree. Hunter and bear
watched each other a short time and
then Mr. Morse decided that discretion
was the better part of valor and mov-
cd toward a farm house half Il mile
away He looked back occasionally
to make sure that he was not being
followed and until he was out of sight
he saw the old bear was watchig him.
The farmer with dog and rifle re-
turned Immediately with Mr.. Morse.
but found no trace of the bear.

This will be the first inspection of
the monuments since they were estab.

examination will disclose the necessity
for re-locations as the granite posts
were firmly set. In years to come the
monuments will be periodically exami-

the locations of the monuments.
