BAR GIRLS IN DEBATE,
Beloit Students Say Judges Show Favor
to Orators Who Belong to the
Fair Sex

BELOIT, Wis, Feb. 1S.-Because
Carroll college has a woman instructor
in oratory and would probably send
women to the state contest, Beloit col
lege students in a mass meeting refused
to ratify the admission of the Waukesha

Beloit students consider oratory a mas
culine art and furthermore declare ex-
perience shows that judges show favor
to women speakers.
Other reasons also entered into for Il

restraining the city council Of Eau Claire
from passing an ordinance declaring the
DelIs contract of 1877 void.
In August, 1906, the city served notice
upon the two companies that within thir-
ty days the city would exercise its option
under the contract and declare the con-
tract void because the companies had
failed to live up to it by removing flush
bonds and the like. On September 1,
1906. the companies filed papers demand
ing that the court adjudge the contract
valid for ninety-nine years and that the
city be enjoined from passing any or
dinance declaring it void. Court Com
missioner Whitford issued the injunction.
Last June Judge O'Neill modified the
injunction 50 as to allow the council to
pass the ordinance forfeiting the con-
tract, but leaving the original injunction
in force while the appeal was being con-
sidered by the supreme court.

This week Messrs. J. l. Hinkle,
N. S. West and Perry WagnOn
all from Hagerman, N. NJ, were

claims there for a little over a
year and have turned out the
cement for several nice jobs in
Guiding the cement school house
at that place. They are just
now having a little trouble with
Mr.. Camp over the location of
their claim and as soon as they
get that settled work will begin
on a mill and cement factory.

THE BEST KIND
OF IRRIGATION

Secretary Wilson of the Board
of Agriculture says that after
the government has arranged to
use all the water which is now
flowing in the streams in the
great dry regions of the United
States there will still be a very
large per cent of that country
left dry. Mr.. Virgins, the in
ventor of the Virgins System
of Sub-irrigation" takes issue
with him. Stating that if the
water is properly utilized, dis
tributed in the most economical
way there will be plenty of it.
He claims that the old time sur
face irrigation is as far behind
the times as the OK cart is be-
hind the automobile. OF course
he bases his remarks on the feas-
ibility of the tiling system which
he has just recently invented.
He claims that he can tile an
acre of ground at an expense of
$25 to $35 per acre. If such is
the case it will not be many
years until the Sacramento val
ley will be a net work of tiling.

THE SANATORIUM
VI
SITUATION
DR.. 0. W. Miller,
AlamOgOrdO, N. NJ.

AlamogordO, N. NJ.
Sanatorium will not be located
until after investigation of To-
cation by supreme officers in
January. W. r. Edison.
The above the telegram from
Mr.. Edison comes as nearly tell
ing the story of the location of
the National X. p. Sanatorium
and the prospects of Alamogordo
landing it as is possible. How
ever there are a few sidelights
which may be of interest. 1t
seems that the Las Vegas bunch
went to the grand lodge with
the endorsement of the New
Mexico territorial grand lodge in
their favor and though that en-
dorsement was worked through
at the last moment of the meet
ing when the members from
nearly every other part of the
territory were on their way home,
it still means much to the su-
preme grand lodge officers. The
trick has been fully explained
to the officers and it has had
enough weight with them to
hold up the location for the pres
ent. And the sanatorium will
not be located until an investi-
CATION is made. The local X.
P. lodge here took pretty strong
action this week and officers and
committees are hard at work to
see if there is not some way
possible to give the poor un-
fortunate members of the X. P.
fraternity who are afflicted with
tuberculosis a chance for their
money. The present situation
fayors strongly of film flam
game.

ANOTHER CEMENT FAC
TORY FOR DOG CANON

Last Saturday a new cement
company was organized at Dog
Canon and work has been COM
menced. The members of the
company are Messrs. Parker,
Baird, Turnbaugh, Kellar, La
Sale, Paxton and Smith. A
number of those men are old
timers in the cement business
and there is no reason why they
will not make a success of the
business.

NEW WATER PROJECT.

Engineer La Sale who re-
Gently came to this city from
Colorado has developed flowing
water in an arroyo west of town
on the Dowd ranch which cer-
tainly looks good to the average
dry land farmer. The first water
in the arroyo is found at from
four to six feet so Mr.. La Sale
cut a deep ditch to that water
and then ran out level and
ditched the water away, he gets
a nice flow of good water and
it looks as though the young
man can now grow most anything
in the Vegetable world on that
land below the ditch.
