EAGER FOR HEARING.
There is great deal of speculation
a. to the strength OF the case the pros
ecution has against the man On this
subject County Atty. Hanson and the
officers who have been directly connect
cd with the case are nou-commtal.
That they believe they have strong
case Is indicated by the fact that the
prosecution is eager for speedy hear
ing. They are fun of confidence that
a good case will be made against the
man. The Willingness of Attys Bailey
aud Vickery to proceed with the hear
ing at once IS an indication that they
tho have strong card to play, None
of the attorneys care to discuss this
phase OF the question this morning.
WILL OWENS TESTIFY?
rhere Is n belief that owens will tes-
tlfy against Sullivan. The testimony
of an accomplice Is worthless unless
corroborated by other evidence which
In ana Of itself would tend to prove
the commission OF the crime charged
against the defendant. Will owens tes-
tify? Is the prosecution in possession
of corroboratlve evidence2 Are there
many important facts In possession OF
the authorities2 These are some Of the
questions In the minds of those who
have followed the case. The hearing
alone will disclose them. 1t was stated
this morning by Atty Vickery that the
preliminary hearing would be waived.
sudden change was decided upon
in court this morning. but there Is
still Il probability that no preliminary
hearing will be had and In that event
there VIII again be disappointment for
the curious.
After the arraignment County Atty.
Hanson hurried to police headquarters
where he was In conference with Chief
Pitt, Captain Burbidge and other oiil-
GERS in possession of the facts in the
case.

suMMARY oF REQuEsr.

What we are asking for simply
amounts TO this. So amend the desert
entry law that a man may obtain title
to his land IL for three years IN sue
cesslon he has been successful In pro.
ducing crops even though he has not
succeeded In conducting water upon IL
as the law provides. or else make the
provisions OF the homestead act so liD-
eral that man may file upon 320
acres instead OF 100 and do not COM
pei him To dwell upon the promises
when he has not money enough TO
make the necessary improvements, but
has an earning capacity that viii en-
able him TO save money enough TO make
them. We would have the law conteln-
plate tho ultimate occupation OF the
land by the person who makes the M

disposition Of his holdings until he mad

REVISION NEEDED.

"'rhe reason that impels US to ask
for a revision of the desert entry act
lies in the fact that scores OF citizens
OF the west have during the past three
years made filings upon thousands of
acres OF so-called desert land, where
local conditions viii not at the present
time permit their making final proof
IN conformity with the terms Of the
law. Many OF these people made their
hlings with the BELIEF that they wound
bo able 70 obtain water for Irrigation
purposes before the time for final PROOF
had elapsed. They have conformed win
the law in all respects save as to con
Quoting water upon the land. Many or
them have developed their lands into a
very high state of cultivation wlthout
the aid Of Irrigation There are tens
OF thousands of dollars worth of good
buildings on these lands, all OF them
are fenced and they are producing crops
OF wheat, oats, barley ana rye that
would challenge the admiration OF any

WESTERN WORK.

I'VE of the west who are working
like Trojans to overcome the handi-
caps that nature herself has establish
ed all about us, insist that we should
not be further burdened with any ar
tifciai limitations imposed by the men
in charge of bureaus at Washington
who are not familiar with the details
of the problems that we have set out
resolutely to solve. II they at Wash
ington are but willing to take evidence,
they will become convinced that the
men of the west are familiar with all
phases of the problems before the
nation. but with reference to the pres
ervation of the forests and the DISPOSE
ton of the public domain. And even
II they are unwilling to listen to our
testimony. they will ultimately be con-
WINGED anyhow, for we are now de-
termined that we shall be heard.
I'VE OF the west protest against such
utterances as those of Mr. Roosevelt
at jamestown. Such words sink deep
into the minds OF those who hear them,
and create an impression which is ut
terly at variance with the facts.

WANTS OF THE WEST,

ANY person who occupies the exalted
position that is held by Mr.. Roosevelt
should weigh well his words, If he is
uniformed on the facts-and he ls--he
should school himself before express
ing to the great American public
thoughts that do great wrong to us
Of the west. What we want here Is
more people to help us in the develop
ment of our dormant resources and IL
Mr. Roosevelt tells the great American
public that our vast public domain is
lit only for the forage it supplies when
we who are spending our money and
our energy in the development Of IT,
know that II is capable of sustaining
a population greater than the total
population OF the United States Mt the
present time. he does us an Injury
which 1t will require years of needless
effort on our part to overcome.
And last OF all It Is my personal
hope that no strife. no sectionallsm, no
provincialism shall dominate this con-
gress. Let us assume that government
and private citizens alike are striving
only for the common good, that in
the words OF the rugged and vlrile Kip
ling we believe:
There is neither east nor west
Border nor breed nor birth.

face

skating the past few years. but the
lake has never been filled as 1t should
be. Usually there is an 'acciden-
tai" break in the ditch bank when
freezing weather comes along and
the water is permitted to run into
the basin for time before it Is dis
covered by any one at interest except
the boys.
With the city owning the place
and keeping some kind Of supervis-
ion over it, the lake might be made
an ideal skating pond, not so deep
but that it would be safe. 1t might
even be utilized in the summer time
also for row beats, water fowl, and
in fact made one of the best features

GOVERNMENT WITHOUT POLITICS

GOVERNMENT WITHOUT POLITICS
Government without politics seems
to be the latest idea tending toward
better things in the way of govern
ment for the people. That is to say,
making government purely matter
of business, or in some cases honor.
The prediction is now being made
bv some careful and thoughtful OBJ
servers, that the time is not far dis
tant when the large cities will be
managed instead of governed; that
the cities will pay high salaries to
the efficient manager, who will be
able to hold his job SO long as he is
able to make the city pay good divi.

Well, most of the people OF East
Grant are pegging away just the
same as if there had been no money
panic and primary election, and
the fellow who pinned" his faith
to certain candidates is either Sc
cretly weeping or openly rejoicing.
Meanwhile, the defeated, the truly
injured one, is nursing his troubles
quietly, wiser man.

son he says; "Why he is Blan-
chard's candidate, and Blanchard
wants him in the executive chair
SO he Blanchard) can step easily
into the Senate" Ignorant voters
asking him for advice are often
misled and advised to not vote at
all. Such disgruntled individuals
as this are not all honor to COM
munity, and oftentimes their infiu-
Ience causes a laxity of interest in
political affairs and the prevalence
of ignorance in regard to impor'
tant political questions.
