abuses may be wiped out and the boon

OLD GRANNY
SPOUTS AGAIN

Old Granny Republican has broken
out again in another effort to tell the
Western Slope people how to run
their affairs. II the old crouch would
attend to its own affairs, it might
come nearer To being a newspaper
than it is now.
Here is its latest display of ego
tism and presumption:
Although proceedings have, il is
said, been begun in the district court
of Grand county to test the question
of the right to divert water from the
western to the eastern slope of the
main range for irrigation, il is not
too late to settle the whole matter by
compromise and agreement.
As the matter stands now, il is a
dispute between citizens of Colorado.
and there is no question that the peo-
pie of the western slope would prefer
their fellow citizens on the eastern
slope to obtain the surplus not needed
on the western side of the range than
that it should go to waste. This sur
plus water-and there is a great deal
of it-would, If not used on the east
ern slope, run down to the Gulf Of
California and be of no use to any
one
Surplus water thus used on the
eastern side Of the mountains would
not be needed on the lower courses OF
the Colorado river. for an abundance
for all irrigation needs in that sec
tion would be supplied by tributar-
les OF the Colorado in Utah and Ari-
2ona in addition to that which in no
event would be withdrawn from the
Grand above the Colorado-Utah line.
n1fltE,,Fr1,
abundance of water for use on the
lower Colorado. il would delight the
reclamation service to intervene in
any pending litigation and place
some check, however needless, on the
use of water in any part of this state
which it might fancy it wanted. Il
might thus interfere even with West
ern Slope irrigation.
The amount of water which might
be diverted to the eastern slope would
for physical considerations be so
small that it could do neither the
valleys of the western slope nor the
| lower part of the Colorado River val
ley any injury. On the other hand,
however, the small amount which
might be diverted would be of great
benefit TO the eastern slope, where
every available drop could be used to
advantage.
1T being question between citi-
zens of Colorado. it should be settled
by them without leaving it to the
courts or giving outsiders any excuse
for taking part in the litigation. Col
orado should be first in a matter of
this sort with all Colorado people
and, next to the western slope. Colo
RADIO people on the western side of the
mountains should favor whatever
would benefit the eastern slope"

GAVE DOG HOME

A small want ad appeared in last
evenings Sentinel reading WANTED
A good home for a pedigreed
Cocker Spaniel dog that is a family
pet. CAN etc"
Last evening in the driving rain the
advertisement was answered in per-
son by parties who were willing to
give a good dog good home.
The ad showed humane feelings oil
the part of the owners who did moi
wish their pet to fall into handl
where cruelty might be it's share.
And the promptness displayed by the
persons answering the ad. was elo-
quent that the sentiment of the own
ers was reciproCated.
Such was the circumstances in the
case of the dog and it is probable that
the same response would be made to
an appeal on behalf of a child, for
the people of the west are large in
their sympathies and kindhearted-
ness

back to his room for his rubbers and

COMPL|MENTED
FOR ACCOUNTS

Many cordial compliments have
been extended to The Sentinel for its
complete, accurate and fearless ac-
counts of the proceedings of the State
Federation of Labor convention lust
closed in this city.
Right is right. and The Sentinel
believed in giving everyone square
deal. The regular proceedings were
handled i'm an impartial manner, Civ
ing all their due credit and recogni-
tion.
In the matter of the condemnation
of County Judge Sullivan and Sheriff
Schrader by the convention. The Sen
tinel set forth the facts and motives
just as they were, giving proper en-
phasis TO the uuiustness and unfair
ness of the charges and action.
Fair play should continue to be a
characteristic of the west as it has
been in days gone by. and it is TO be
regretted that a few tin-horn political
grafters should be allowed to dictate
TO a convention of intelligent citizens
and cast false and prejudiced asper-
sions on honest men.
The writer of this and of the PRO
ceedings of the convention was ac-
costed by the Gross person yesterday
afternoon and asked if he was a news
paper man. On receiving a reply in
the affirmative Gross declared that
he would have been eternally and un-
conditionally condemned to the lower
regions if he vCgld have allowed him
at the meeting of the committee on
resolutions when Sheriff Schrader had
his hearing had he known the fact.
Gross thought the writer was a dep
uty sheriff
