necessary that the waterway should
follow the old channel on which tn
dam Is being constructed. 1t has been
shown that the water can be diverted

AS was reported in last weeks
News there was a rouSing meet
ing and picnic held at Beulah
school house in Armstrong coun-
ty last Saturday, the meeting
being held for the purpose of
discussing and taking steps to
secure the new railroad from
Canyon City to Silyerton.
Practically everyone in the
community turned out, and a
real jolly good time was had.
Several interesting speeches
were had and enthusiasm for
the new enterprise was launched.
The greater part Of those present
expressed themselves as being
ready to make their subscrip-
tionS to the enterprise and that
they would 90 anywhere along
the proposed line in order to
help boost it up.
These people need the line and
they are not going to stand back
for want Of enterprise. They
have already gotten ready to
help and want to see the road
started. the sooner the better.
Major Eugene {. Gordon, a.

SOME POINTED PARAGRAPHS.
Editorial Comment on Things Various
and General in Nature.

Few people seem to realize
that the longer we wait the more
il will cost US TO install water
works and sewerage systems.
Do you know that Canyon City
is the best located town on the
plains to put in a good water
works system at a comparatively
small expense:
Do you know that there isn't
a town any better located for a
sewerage system? Do you know
that we need both and that very
badly:
couldn't do anything else
to help create a stir | would
call some man a liar. | would
get what | deserve then.
We call especial attention to a
contribution published in this is.
sue relative to a public park. 1t
is well worth reading and Is filled
with good suggestions.
What's the reason a good sani-
tarium would not pay in this
country? We have very healthy
climate and if such an institution
was built near our Palo DurO
canyon in addition TO the climate
the people would have advantage
of our wonderful scenery in
this natural park.
Say if you are a dead one"
make arrangements for your own
funeral. The live people in this
country are too busy 10 pay any
attention 10 such as you. If you
can't hustle get out Of the way OF
those who can.
Did you ever stop TO think
just how little protection we have
against the rayages Of fire:
Stop and consider what thistown
would lose if a full grown fire
should break out. Lets have q
small fire department at least
