SINCE MAN PROPOSES.
IL Woman Had the Liberty OF Choice
Would 1t Make a DinerenceF


II a woman could have the same liberty
OF choice In the acquiring Of husband
as a man has In the selection OF a wife.
consider the change II would make In the
marriage problem and In the divorce
court. II by no means follows that be-
cause man loves a woman she loves
him. says Golfers. But he may be the
only man who is eligible. or the only man
her people want her 20 marry. or any
one of hundred oniys you can think OF
for yourself.
And what then? There may be some
unattainable man the woman really does
love, but what can she do? Almost moth
ing! She is bound to choose from the
men who come TO her. True. she can
stay single. and many women do so, and
on this very account-that they never
have happened to love the men who
loved them. But 70 stay single Is not
solution Of the question and IL does not
appeal TO the majority Of women. Nine
times out Of ten the woman locks up in
her heart the ideal Of a husband she has
formed. or the preferences she has in
herited or acquired, or the thought OF the
other man, and takes the man who wants
TO marry her whether or not he Is the
man she wants to marry.
If she Is q woman of character she
persuades herself and others that he is
the man she wants to marry. She lends
herself to whatever form his wooing may
take If he is blond and bearded, though
she prefer dark eyes and shaver face. yet
you would never guess it from words OF
/ hers. She may have assured herself every
day that she will marry only a man or
dignity, but she viii recant when her
sutton proves clown She may adore
| spontaneous merriness, and not only
marry straight-laeed prude. but swear
that IL is the only kind OF man she can
endure.

To THE DELTA INDEPENDENT:

To THE DELTA INDEPENDENT:
In your issue of January 21st, you
make mention of certain matters which
appeared in the Surface Creek Cham
pion of the same date. The writer of
that article, either through ignorance
or malice, has done great injustice to
the Surface Creek community, as well
as my clients and myself; l have ad-
dressed a communication to the Cham
pion, copy of which wish you would
publish so that the readers of your
paper may have an opportunity to learn
the truth.
To THE SURFACE CREEK CHAMPION:
"It has never been my custom to try
law suits through the newspapers, but
for the benefit of those readers of your
paper who are water Users in the Sur
face Creek Valley, and who have evil
IDENTIFY been mislead by your erroneous
report of one of the most lamentable
happenings for many years, and have
responded nobly to the call to arms. and
with true knightly valor have pledged
themselves to storm the very temple of
justice itself and to press the fight to
the bitter end, l make the following
statement of the facts in this matter.
The case in which this petition is
filed, and which is causing such a
tempest in tea pot, has been pending
in the district court since 1903. The
object of that proceeding was to secure
alifi0nal Iorrnac fpr atar xph hn
owned land which they had not irrigated
prior to the decree of 1889.
was employed by the owners of the
land formerly owned by Jesse C. Hart
to represent them in this proceeding.
There are 120 acres of that land which
has never received any of the benefits
of that decree of 1889, except such as
it obtained by reason of ownership of
stock in the Alfalfa ditch. In that
proceeding the court held that neither
stockholders whom | represent. We're
entitled to any part of the l06 feet
which had been formerly decreed to the
Alfalfa ditch. Under the law, any
party aggrieved by that decision has a
right to ask the court to review its
judgment, provided he files his petition
within two years from the date of the
entry of that decree. The parties
whom represent feel that they were
aggrieved, and have filed their petition
for the purpose of correcting, if possi-
BILE, any error which the court may have
committed in its findings in that case.
Now the amount of land for which we
seek water in this proceeding, is l20
acres, which will take not to exceed
three feet. That amount, We believe
we are entitled to, out of the loo feet
originally decreed to the Alfalfa ditch
and is all we are asking for.
In conclusion / will say, that the
paper, which, either through malice or
ignorance, publishes articles calculated
to injure community very materially,
becomes a menance and detriment to
that community. PORTER PLUMB.
