ritory.
On the Rio Grande the guns are
unlimbered for still another bat
tie. The United States govern
ment is claiming these waters for
use in reclamation project in
New Mexico. Suit is soon to be
brought by the government to set
tie the controversy. The stake
again is the agricultural progress
of the state.
A similar controversy is now
threatening on the Grand river. The
attack comes from the four sides
of the state.
The defense of Colorado rests
on practically the same fundamen-
tai proposition of law in each of
these Controversies. She affirms
that the resources of the state
are its own to use in its borders
as II sees fit. If such be not the
case, the natural advantages of her
position are meaningless. She de-
MES that appropriations carry any
weight beyond the borders of the
commonwealth which authorizes
them She points to the fact that
the use of streams for irrigation
near their headwaters is vastly
more economical than their use on
the lower reaches. on account of
the return waters" and the loss
attached to carriage across tthe
deserts. The welfare of the
whole people demand that water
be used in the most economical
form. There is little enough as
II is.
| None of these questions have
been settled. The stake that de
pends upon their settlement can
hardly be overestimatted II there
is any single point upon which
Colorado as a state should be unit
ed, is should be in the defense OF
its waters.
The situation as we have stated
1t was very forcibly presented to
the last Legislature. AS result.

No. 3O5. which has since been de-
rided as the "pot-hunters' bill"
The act provides a fund of $780, 900

committeee of seven. including the
attorney general. is appointed to
| investigate the attack being made
upon Colorado irrigators and to
defend the state and its citizens.
| Much of this money will be wasted.
Such is always the case with Amer
lean government expenditures.
But regardless of the fate OF
this or any other individual bill.
lies the fact that Colorado is fac
ing the sternest crisis in its irri-
cation history. The San Luis val
ley is at standstill, the pro-
gress of Larimer and Weld coun-
ties is in peril and the very exist
ence of the ARKANSAS valley as an
agricultural community is at stake.
If the attack on these streams is
successful. the bars are down to in
roads on every watershed in the
state.

State Capital Notes

ty chalrmen, state central COM
mitteemen, county secretaries and
editors met with Presidhet Taft at
n reception in the ordinary of
the Brown Hotel on the occasion of
his visit to Colorado. 1t was one
of the best Republican representa-
tive gatherings that has been held
in many a day.
The President stated that the
position of the Republican party
was that it was in favor of pro
gression and construction; that it
believed in prosperity and in doing
nothing that will interfere with
business growth If that growth is
legitimate and along the lines laid
down by the statute; that the Re
publican party had no desire to hit
corporations simply because they
are corporations: that If n corpor-
alton contributed to the growth
and prosperity of community. and
II II contributed to the wage fund
earned in that community. 1t should
be encouraged and not discourag-
ed. Mr.. TAFT declared that the Re
publican party was in favor of a
tariff that represented the differ
enee in the cost OF production here
and abroad. He declared that the
administration had no apologies to
offer for having vetoed the tariff
measures that were submitted be-
cause those measures did not carry
out the idea of protection as ad-
vooated by the Republican party:
he declared that his Democratic op-
ponents who were criticising him
would sign any bill that reduced
the tariff on anything. because they
believed In free trade; he discuss-
ed the DETECTION from the Repub-
lican congressional representation
last year and stated that this de-
Election came from the fact that
some Republicans stayed at home
and not because of any increas-
ed votes in the Democratic ranks:
he declared that he believes the
Republicans were now beginning TO
realize that the administration was
irving to do what IL promsed. he
stated that he boped that when
tho country realizes that the pres-
emf administration WIS irving to
obey orders I, wouId continue IL
I'm nower
This was the only reference the
presiden, made that might he CON
strued that he was a candidate for
recollection The RenubIican work
srs caught the idea and IL was full
lv five minutes before he could
continue In closing he referred to
the fact that CoIorado straved AWAY

election but he boned she would

(ki- -prak-tik)

Comparatively new science by
which the cause of disease is deter
mined and the art of removing the
same by the hands without medicine
or surgery. The spinal column
is the main shaft or support of the
human body, aud is composed of 80
articular joints or movable bones
(Vertebrae) through which the spi-
nal cord passes, sending out from
between each of these Vertebrae
nerve flaments to the different or
gans, muscle and tissue of the body.
How vital these nerves to our being
Destroying those of the finger, arm

from the moment of birth to that

what organ, tissue or member that
