comes. But tie contemporary vir-
tually admits its error in the conten'
tion regarding free water for street
washing when it declares that in
eEumerating the purposes for which
the water company Should furnish
water free, the trainers of the fran
chise ordinance omitted flushing
streets. because this was not con-
templated at that time" 1t is not
easy to understand how something
which was admittedly not contemplat-
ed by the trainers of an ordinance
can be claimed as a right by virtue
of that ordinance. Probably it can be
stated as true that courts generally
have held the other way, declaring
that only such things as were con
templated by the trainers of law
could be demanded under that law.
However. when it comes to interpre
tations of law. and 10 court opinions
bearing thereon, The Bulletin prefers
to follow in the wake of some good
attorney, leaving to Its esteemed con
whateve; pleasure or profit
it may find in devious meanierings
amidst those intricate and mystfying
mazes wherein the average lay mind
so often gets "kinkey."

What can it mean? asks the even
ing contemporary with reference to
the clause in the water company's
ordinance which gives the city au-
thorities the right TO regulate the
use Of water" In so far as liction-
AIRY Of recognized authority can be Of
any service In aiding the con
temporary to understand this strange
phrase. the following excerpt from
Webster's may he of some little
value: Regulate adjust by
rule, method or established mode; to
direct by rDle or restriction; to sub
lect to governing principles or laws.
To regulate a watch or clock to ad-
just its rate of running so that it
will keep appropriately standard

one of the things contemplated or
embraced in the expression to "regu

mitted that no clock is really com

BECAUSE HE LOVES HER.

A young man not many years ago
began going to see a girl; he kept
her out on the front porch and hang
ing on the front gate late at nights;
he made her life a sorment for her
if she looked at any other fellow, and
finally he married her.
The girls father is in good circum-
stances, but the young man is poor;
so for the first time in her life she
began to know privation and want.
She cooks for him, cleans, sews
mends and slaves for him.
Why has the man put this woman
IN a position where she must expert
anee hardships in addition to his
tyranny?
Because he loves her.
This is the common Interpretation
of love, the sweetest word in the
affsHagt.
Because he loves her. many man
las brought many woman down to
hell, which she has Loyalty striven
70 turn into a heaven.
Woman IS 50 constituted that so
long as she believes herself loved and
appreciated she can forgive and en-
lure anything and still be happy.
A wife is the only laborer on earth
who works for her board and clothes
and Is expected to be grateful for the
privilege.
The husband who doesn't econo-
nize on expressions Of affection or
stint his wife on praise may do as
he will without friction or argument.
So long as he does not sink the
over in the husband he need fear no
"ival. He may forget every other rule
3ut ii he remembers this all will be
we'll.
Even when the steak is leather and
the bread a cinler he must merely
remark that the meal isn't quite up
20 her usual high standard of perfec-
:ion-a and it doesn't happen again.
Every woman is an idealist, and
she viii break her neck trying to live
Up to what she thinks a loving hus-
band expects of her.
But even she appreciates a day off
now and then.
There are things worse than work.
Sitting alone at night waiting for
husband to come home doesn't
thrill a woman with delight bit more
than it would Memphis Scim.

THE FARMER AND LABOR.

Secretary Wilson has on various
occasions eXpounded his theory that
the increased cost of living Is chiefly
due to the scarcity of farm labor, the
drift from country to city, and the
increase of population at a greater
rate than that of the increase of the
food supply. Even those who hold
that trusts and monopolies have a
good deal to do with the upward tend
ency of prices admit that as ia the
products OF the farm lack of labor
and crudity of methods of raising
2rops are the principal factors.
Eut in discussing such grave ques
tions the officials of the department
of agriculture should stick to PROSE
o facts, to figures, to probabilities
Such statements as these, for ex

not know what luxuries are; they

is true, further, as has been pointed
out many times by experts, that the
average American family is extrava-
giant and Wasteful of food. But from
these facts to talk of luxury in the

farmers is far cry. Millions of
American housewives know some,

GRAND VALLEY PROJECT.

State papers have been filled the
past week with stories TO the effect
that the government did not intend to
take hold of the big canal for the
lower Grand valley at the present
time. This announcement was first
made through the Denver dailies.
which printed a discouraging story
early in the week. More than one of
the energetic farmers of Grand valley
felt little mite blue after hearing
that Secretary Ballinger had an
nounced that there would be moth
ing doing by the government for
some time
But hardly had the dispatches from
Washington found space in the Den
yer papers when Secretary BaIlinger
wrote letter to the Grand Junction
booster. Secretary Aupperle of the
Water Users association. in which he
said: "Will be una BILE to visit Grand
Junction on the seventeenth as plan
ned. Expect TO be there with the
president In conversation with
the president il has been decided to
take no further action in the Grand
Junction matter until our arrival
there
This would indicate that there is
something wrong. Either Secretary
Ballinger was misquoted by the
Washington dispatches, or some more
weight must have been brought to
bear by the water users TO have the
work carried on as planned Ii is
certainly to be hoped that the govern
ment does not stop work on the
Grand valley project. and the Post
believes that the visit of the presi-
dent to that section next week will
be the signal for the work to start in
real Glenwood Post.
