A PERTINENT CRITICISM.

The current number of The indie
pendent, the New York weekly maya,
zine, contains an exceptionally able
article upon Irrigation Projects in
Wyoming" from the pen of Editor
Deming Of the Wyoming Tribune.
After giving a brief history of the
origin and purposes of the reclamation
act, the writer gives an excellent ac-
count Of the work being performed on
the North Platte and the Shoshone
rivers. The article is illustrated by
some excellent halftone engravings.
In his discussion of the problems pre-
sented, Mr.. Deming makes the follow.
ing pertinent criticism relating to a
matter that 1t would be well for the
people of Wyoming to keep constantly
in mind:
The only criticism l desire to offer
upon the reclamation service touching
the North Platte project is that enough
money should be appropriated at once
to reclaim lands higher up the river,
tributary to Douglas and Casper, and it
should at once proceed to construct
the Goshen Hole canal for this reason,
While the North Platte river rises in
Colorado. it flows northward and east
ward more than 300 miles through wy
oming into Nebraska. The greater
part Of It's waters originates in the
snow-clad peaks of Wyoming. and wy
oming Ii therefore entitled TO the ben
efts. Under the law Of prior appro-
priation, after the completion Of the
interstate canal there may NOT remain
sufficient water to reclaim the Wyo-
ming lands; whereas. on the other
hand. II these lands higher up the
river Ia Wyoming we're reclaimed
Arst the lower areas IN Nebraska
could still be irrigated, as the drainage

HAS RENTED COTTAGE
TO LUMBER WORkMEN

Manager Clark Pelton has secured
several new men for the planning mill,
Clyde Lashbrook and Henry Davis
coming from Laramie Tuesday. Mrs.
Sarah Miller has rented her cottage to
the Reno brothers, who will come with
their mother and sister, says the Cen
~tennial Post. Another family is also
expected. Mr.. Pelton advises the Post
that there are sufficient orders booked
to keep the mill in operation for four
or five months without more coming
in. The saw mill will be opened as
soon as a road can be broken, and it
is probable that the mill will be run
continuously in the future.

Good Words for chamberlain's Cough

Good Words for Chamberlain Cough

two years old. has been taking this

May Be a Nice Man, But

May Be q Nice Man, But
A number of convictions have been
secured in Wyoming recently Of men
who mistreated their horses, which
have warned others to be more care
lul. Cruelty to animals as a rule is
more through carelessness than any
thing elese, and IN officer to see that
these abuses are corrected will make
men more careful. The writer knows
a rancher who will not have a man in
his employ who will abuse his horses,
and recently he discharged a man for
whipping a mule that probably had
more n than the nan who did the
whipping. The owner of this animal
says that merciful man is merciful to
his beasts. We like to e our ranch
men when they drive into town on a
cold, stormy day, put their team in a
barn or cover them with blankets. In
the heat of summer they can always
find shade in which to leave the noble
animals that brought them safely to
town. There are many, however, who
on cold days will rush for a stove them
selves and leave their horses in the
storm while in the heat OF summer,
they seek the shade and leave their
horses in the sun. There is something
wrong about the man who thus abuses
his team. He may be a nice man, may
belong to the church, may not swear,
smoke nor have any bad habits, but We

A Parable.

Once Upon Time there was Fair
Young Girl with soft, white hands and
a Swans Neck. She was born to be a
Princes Bride, but unfortunately there
were 10 Princes near where she lived.
Also her Parents We're poor. This
Sweet Young Thing liked fine clothes,
but didn't like work. So when Young
Man Of Common Blood offered her his
hand in marriage she cried him yea.
She thought she was going to live on
Easy Street with nothing to do but
kiss her husband goodby in the morn
ing and watch for his return at night.
Five years later she had two children
to take care of; her soft. white hands
were red; her sylph-like form was
bulky. She worked eighteen hours a
day, washing. ironing and sewing. with
no relief in sight.
By that time she began to wish that
she had learned stenography and re-
manned single.
