FOUR INDISPUTABLE REASONS
WHY PECOS VALLEY EXCELS

The Pecos valley is the best irriga-
tion project in America. Facts all
prove it.
l. climate with S45 days
of sunshine every year. Summer
temperature 81, winter 81; humid
ity, 33; altitude. 2.200 feet; no hot
winds; no blizzards. u. S. signal
service says climate is better than
California North Carolina or Florida.
9 SOFIA rich. deep. sandy loan,
ranging from dark chocolate to red
dish in color, g to 80 feet deep; no
alkali. Pronounced by experts who
have seen it Ito be the finest body
of land In America for irrigation.
3. Ample Water Supply-Our res
ervoir q miles square and II feet
deep holds 10000 acre feet of wat
er. Forty miles of canals serve wat
er for irrigation. William l.. Rock
well, government irrigation manager,
SAYS the duty of water in Pecos val
ley should be one cubic foot for ev-
cry $50 acres, while we guarantee
one cubic foot for so acres, or APP
TWICE THE AMOUNT
of water needed for irrigation. The
rainfall is EIGHTEEN INCHES. 1t
is believed that artesian water un-
derlies this lower Pecos valley; in
fact, on these lands. at 1870 feet, 80
feet of good water has been found
A. Marlxets-When the Orient
railroad reaches the lower Pecos val
ley. which should be in - months,
direct communication with the mar
kets of the world, north, east. west
and south, can be obtained. Mean
while. there is big demand for ev-
erything that can be raised. Alfalfa.
which cuts seven tons per acre, NOW
sells for SIG a ton at Great Falls,
lust across the Pecos river from our
land. The cattlemen who pasture
hundreds of thousands of steers on
the plains adjacent must have feed
through the winter.
No other irrigation district in the
United States is so well and favora-
bly, located.
With ideal climate, making your
future home both healthful and de-
lightful, rich and fertile soil, plen-
ty of water to guarantee bountiful
crops and a splendid market for all
you raise, why do you hesitate to
make the lower Pecos valley your fu-
ture home?

March, as compared with $2124.7'
for the same month last year, al
increase of $3.50. The February
fee collections showed an increase
of about $500.
Clerk Atkinson still insists that
lawyers pay the fees in cash when
filing papers. Some of the gen
tlemen of the bar forgst occasion
ally to bring the necessary change
with them in presenting papers for
filing, in which case the papers
are received and deposited in a
drawer until the lawyer makes a
"raise."
A bundle of 80 or 40 such are
now held up in the clerks office
awaiting the necessary fee pay
ments by the interested attorneys.

EXPERTS TRY To
WASH HANDS
APPEAL TO GOVERNOR HAY

BUT GOVERNOR STANDS ON
THEIR TESTIMONY.

A majority of the medical ex.
perts who testified for the state

that there is such doubt as to the
complete mental, responsibility bf
lGauvette that he should not be
hanged for the crime. They be.

" severe penalty under the cir.
cumstances.
Governor Hay has refused to in
terfere in the matter and is will
ing to permit the experts to bear
the responsibility of their testi-
mony in the case.
One of the experts made the
statement that he did not want the
blood of Joe Gauvette on his
hands and rather than see man
of Gauvette's mental status hang
ed he will go to Olympia and pre-
sent the case in person to the gov
ernor.
DR.. ]. M. Semple, superintendent
of the state insane hospital at
Medical Lake, who was one of the
chief experts for the state, has
Joined in the movement to have
Gauvette's death sentence COM
muted to life Imprisonment. After
the examination of Gauvette, fol-
lowing the outbreak by the prison
er in court, DR.. Semple stated that
Gauvette ought not be executed,
but afterward gave testimony as
to the mans complete mental re-
sponsibility, under which showing
the jury returned verdict for
murder in the first degree, for
which there is but one punishment

And Designate The College

Prince helie Excluded from List Of
Persons to Visit Them.

Paris, May 27.-The decision of the
superior court on Count Boni de Cas-
tellane's appeal of the case brought by
handed down today and is partial
victory for the count.
It confirmed the decision of the low
er court giving the mother the custody
Of the children, but it set forth that
the father alone had the right to choose
their instructor and designate the col,
lege in which they are to be educated.
Prince Helie De Sagan is specifically
excluded from the list of persons au-
thorized to visit the children, and the
counts contention that the influence
of the prince is pernicious is thus In
effect sustained. The costs of the ap-
peal are divided.
The decision emphasizes the right
of the count to control the education
of the children; he may name the in
structor OF the youngest and pass upon
the choice of an institution for the
education of the two eldest. If the
parents cannot agree on school for
these two boys within fortnight they
are to be sent to the Lysee of Jensen,
where only the mother, grandmother
and George Gould may visit them. The
decision sets forth also that what
ever the character and past of the
Prince De Sagan, it is not true that
the princess imposed upon her chill
dren the influence of her new husband
to prejudice their affection for their
father" -.. 81
