THE CHARGES AGAINST
THE STATE EN- GINEER

Charges have recently been made
against State Engineer Nicholas accus-
ing him of irregularities in his office in
favoring one side of the litigants in the
controversy over the rights of Duck
water Creek in Nye County.
While The Appeal knows nothing of
the issues involved in the charges
against the State Engineer, who is
amply qualified to make his own de
Tense, it does know in common with old
residents of this state that the litiga-
ton over the rights of Duckwater Creek
thirty years. 1t has been almost IL
Kentucky feud in which two men have
been killed already. Two of the oppos-
ing factions married sisters which
caused a further complication and it is
now Il bitter family row in Il war that
has given most of the belongings of
each side to the various attorneys who
have been ut different times engaged in
the case.
1t is said that ali of the names signed
Lo tue protest SenI 10 the governor are
related. 1t is also quite reasonable to
suppose that had Nicholas decided in
favor of the other faction an equally
hot protest would have been filed by
the other parties.
On the other hand. there are people
who claim to be we'll informed in that
matter who state that certain attorneys
are behind the fight against the entire
law from the fact that the State Engi-
neer under this law, becomes sort of
arbitration board settling water suits
without the Intervention of ATTORNEYS
. The ranchcrS Of Humboldt county have
accepted the settlement of their con
troversieS made by Nicholas and state
that it Is not only fair AID satisfactory
but has disposed of litiE irion which up
to-date cost half a million dollars. In
other words, this law, if passed years
ago, would have saved that amount
spent in fruitless litigation. The people
swilLdo well to watch this law closely
and note if the lawyers are trying to
KNOCK it out Possibly it has touched
the pockets of attorneys who have
Emade comfortable livings i'm the past

Mind out of ten people one may meet
in any Of the big hotels or 'fiisstansants
in this country will declare that bacon
is not u choice cut; many hold that it is
decidedly plehian diet, yet bacon is
today more expensive to the house
holder than sirioin steak.
Some years ago, perhaps fifteen years
ago, an author writing popular book
had one character who was star stingy
man. In various ways the author
depicted this mans pennrious habits
and OH one fancied occasion led him
into abutcher shop and had him say:
''Give me pound and half, off the
underside of the round" When the
book appeared that particular line was
considered funny and the character
appeared to quite live up. to his part
that of the champion stingy man.
Round steak today costs 20 cents per
pound. 1t is otie'of the lowest priced
cuts on the list. yet it costs but two
cents less than choice sirluin cuts cost
10 years ago. =, r.".'..
President Taft says the American peo-
pie demand 80 many choice cuts that
the price has haul to go up in order to
adjust the supply to the demand, yet
the pig was never accused of jumping
over the moon and he has nevertheless
gone three points higher than the COW.
Vegetables are higher. every staple
article of food is higher; more vegeta-
bles and fruits are being grown than 10
years ago; more so than would be com
mensurate with population.
The poorest, most miserable, forlorn
poor white trash" in the Tennessee
mountains, has his bacon. 1t may

From Lippincott's.


The parrot which belonged to the rich
m~alefactor sat in it's g.lded cage, con-
templating a price-mark which had not
yet been removed. Presently the magnate
approached, and the bird looked at aim.
He had been on the witness stand that
day in an important case, and was feel
ing rather elated over his successful testi-
mony.
Hello, Polly!" he greeted the bird,
sticking his finger through the bars.
'Hello!" responded the parrot, ignoring
the finger.
Does Polly want a cracker?"
The bird cooked its head to one side
inquiringly. The magnate laughed at its
manner. Possibly the bird had not quite
understood the question.
Does Polly want a cracker?" he re
peated.
The bird still looked at him with slantet
vision, but made no reply.
"Oho!" he laughed. you're not hun
cry. Have you had our dinner?"
IT don't remember" croaked the bird
and the magnate ordered the butler to re
move 1t from the premises forthwith.
