new FILTRATION BASIN AT WATER
WORKS PLANT is DOING NICELY

From Saturdays Daily.
The new filtration basin at the
water works plant is fully realizing
the expectations of the public and as
sures the people of Canon City an
ample supply of clear. pure water for
household and other purposes The
water was turned into the filter yes
terday morning, and in addition to af-
fording consumers the usual amount
for lawn sprinkling and general do
mestic use. amounting to some
thing like two millions of gallons
every "a hours, has created a surplus
of one million. eight hundred thous-
and gallons, which has been turned
into the clear water reservoir to
be drawn upon as exigencies may re-
quire.
The filter now in use has proven
itself capable of furnishing a much
larger supply of clear water than the
amount needed by the people of Can
on City for ordinary purposes When
the other filtration basin is finished
and put into operation. which will be
before the summer is over, the ca
pacity will be practically doubled: {:
the supply then being sufficient for
a population of $4,000 people
As the water contains but CON-
| paratiyely small per cent of sand

It enters the liberation basins the

inchesdeep, in which to set the
plants. It IS important that the
piants be set deeply or the roots will
be injured when cutting is done. The
plants should be set from eighteen
incs es to two feet apart in the row.
II more than one row is set, the rows
should be five feet apart. Cover the
plants with from one TO two inches
OF fine soil, and after the tops get
above the ground, cultivate in gradu-
ally until the trench is filled to the
surface. Cultivate frequently during
the season. No grass should be cut
the first or second year. After that
IL may be cut from early spring until
June or July; then the tops must be
allowed to grow during the remaind-
er of the season to store up plant
food for the next years crop. After
frost comes the tops should be
mown off and burned and heavy
coat OF manure applied to the bed to
protect the plants and to supply the
needed fertility TO the soil. Re
member the asparagus plant is a
voracious feeder. and the more fer
tillzer applied the more and bigger
stems may be cut from the bed.

Just how much silt will be deposit
ed in the filtering basin by the water
in making its way down through the
sand and gravel Is, of course, a mat
ter of speculation and guesswork, but
will not be very great on account Of
the means previously taken to elim-
mate it. The opinion is expressed By
the water superintendent that the III
ters will not have to be cleaned
oftener than once q month at most
and that the expense to the city from
that source will not much, IL any
any, exceed $500 a year. Much OF
the sediment to be taken out OF the
filters will be sand. and by washing
it can be used II needed in maintain
ing the requisite quantity of drainage
material In the basins In case of fire
or other extraordinary demand upon
the water supply 1t will not be nee
essary TO draw upon the clear water
reservoirs. provision having been
made by which the unfiltered water
may be let into the mains
The system of filtration adopted
here is said to be the best and most
practical known and cannot fail to
be success IL IL works as well here
as in other places II is the same sys-
tenn they have in Denver. but is more
modern and up-to-date in many re-
spects-
Some time ago the water superin-
tendent addressed a large number OF
letters to the authorities where \
similar method of liberation is in
use and in every instance they replied
that the system was a success. There
is no likelihood that the people OF
Canon City will have any further
complaint TO make in relation to the
character of water they are compell-
ed to use in their homes

The Saxon words are the strong

Is the slovenly grammar he uses.
The average college graduate writes,
"a strata and a data" (witness the
Peary-Cook controversy, where it
cropped out every day. and because

fact that l have done SO is no reason

is foul grammar and is impossible to
the student who has learned Latin

JUSTICE IN ITSELF.

There seems to be no great argu-
ment in opposition to increased juris-
diction, only one, that of increased
taxation, and there is only one paper
published in Ramsey county that
would forward this one argument II
anything, with increased jurisdiction
the expenses Of the county in our op-
inion would be materially lessened.
1t would not be necessary to board cri-
minals two and three months before
they could be brought to trial. There
would be no necessity of people, an.
xious to have their little civil cases
tried, waiting three months for the
case to be set and then hang around
waiting for action. The expense OF a
jury would not be enough greater than
it is under the present system for
surely where jury is required there
would be none called unless to sit on
several cases, hence in this particu.
lar there would be no difference
Again it is almost impossible to clean
up the calendar at a term of court
and case after case goes over, and
must wait several months, when
they might be tried the following week
after court adjourns. Again this ar
gument of increased taxation is moth.
ing when you can bring to justice
matters of Importance before all the
evidence is forgotten or the witnesses
have disappeared. 1t would solve diff
! flcult problems in a week where We
have waited months. Increased juris
diction has been tried and not found
wanting and as far as a burden tc
taxation is concerned in communities
where increased jurisdiction is IL
/ vogue, the benefits derived from i,
are so much greater than the burden
it necessitates that the people have
come to look upon it as a necessity
1t is justice in itself.

While the fact that the writer and

the tendency of the writer in having

that as a man is in careing for the

ATTORNEY GENERAL MILLER

Certain local repu blicans have at
tempted TO cast reflections upon the
course OF Attorney General Miller in
the recent clean up in this city. These
gentlemen are the same people who
get SO warmed up when somebody
cuts the ticket or talks against some
of their friends who want them Ito
vote 'er straight They belong to
the old gang" machine of this CITY
principally. They have no use for
republican like Miller who does his
duty and is not susceptible to their
influences. They conceive a repub-
ncan to be one who is true to the ma
chine. They are badly puzzled when
they find a man they can't handle.
When they do find one they say he is
not a republican,
! These same gentlemen have sold
Devils Lake time and time again in
. past campaigns to the local LIQUOR in
terests in return for votes on state
questions. They have had but one in
terest at stake all the time. That has
been to keep themselves in Office.
They have succeeded pretty well In
doing so, but they may have the as
surance today that the people of Ram
sey county and Devils Lake particuI.
arly KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THEY
STAND FOR Their platform may be
summed up in the words Give us
the Plums.''
Andy Miller, going about the buss.
ness OF the people of North Dakota
doing his duty without fear or favor is
doing the republican party more last,
ing service than these gentlemen have
done In all their career of office gath.
ering in the past twenty years. Jus,
mark this Mr.. Citizen, that the ANDY
Miller brand Of republicanism Is the
kind that you can be proud of. the
federal push and other "smoothies'
to the contrary notwithstanding.
