Within the last few davs the
Mountain States Tel a Tel Go. has
purchased the Crested Butte Tele.
phone Company holdings, Of which
IT has always held considerable
portion.
This week Manager Byers. is al
the Buttes, superintendipg prepara-
ton OF new exchange that will con
form to the requirements of the bic
company. 1t is needless 10 say very
great Improvements will be made,
and the service for this part of the
county greatly facilitated.
The purchase includes the line TO
Gunnison and line over the Pearl
pass TO Aspen. Wires of the con-
pany extend 10 Gothic, and it is
reasonable 10 suppose that connect-
ion will be made with Marble and
Crystal in the near future, and if
bss,Ress lsssi6es it, with Flosesta
snd Irwin.
The rebuilding Of the line from
Gannison 10 the Buttes, ought to
put most of the ranchmen along that
route on the telephone system, and
it 10 especially desirable that as
many Of them as possible be connect
ed with the Gunnison exchange.
Otherwise, it will be heavy tax ON
business from this direction to pay
the exchange fee
The opening OF the Italian noun
tain mining district also comes at IN
opportane time. The telephone line
already runs three miles up Cemen,
creek TO Rangers Roo~t, and a mat
TER Of thirteen miles further to tap
the mining district would seem a
first step in 1912.

The water suits Of Kansas against
Colorado ditch companies along the
Arkansas are again attracting much
attention, for this one of the most
important legal matters before the
state of Colorado. Ii is 10 the inter
est of every citizen and matter of
life and death to the vast agricul-
tural interests of the state, that the
supreme court of this country shall
follow its former decisions, and de
clare, not only that Colorado citizens
are entitled to the water, but that it
is for the public good that irrigation
water sbouid be used fret near head
waters of the streams. For this rea-
son the opposition of Denver papers
10 the use of the $4,000 defense
fund Appropriated by this last iegis-
lsture is extremely ilI-advised. News
Champion will have more to say up
on tins point later, but we certainly
hope that the state authorities will
see their way clear To let this fund
be available at once So that the legal
matters connected with the case can
be well prepared by tine best attor-
nsys obtainable In the west.

BUILD THEM NOW.

Attorney General Crawfords lat
est opinion is that while there is no
authority to call a special election,
counties can vote on bonds for ROAD
improvement at a general election
without W t n g for fur'
ther legislation. At the last electioh
the people by majority OF lS,oVo
amended the constitution of the
state so as to permit counties to IS
sue bonds for road purposes. Inc
amendment reads as follows:
Section 10, article Xl-No coun-
ty shall create any debts or lapih-
ties which shall singly or in the ag-
gregate exceed the sum of $4,000, ex-
cept to suppress insurrection or re-
pei invasion, OF to build permanent
roads within the county, but debts
for permanen roads shall be incur
red only on approval of a majority
of those voting on the question:
Enterprise news-record. [volume] (Enterprise, Wallowa County, Or.) 1910-1911, 1911-03-25

as the next generation. They will
never see them though unless bonds
are voted in sums sufficient to build,
for no sparsely settled community
like this can pay for permanent roads
mile by mile, and at the same time
waste $4,000 a year on make shift
roads.
1t is unfair for sparsely settled
counties to pay the entire cost of
permanent road construction for fu-
ture generations. Let those who
come after us and who will also en-
Joy those same good roads, help pay
for them.
Let those' who advocate mile a
year construction remember the story
of the Indian who hearing that
white men used feather pillows
thought he would try it. That night
he put one feather under his head,
and when he arose in the morning
said" d,"White man heap dam fool"

Some of the best lawyers in the
stale agree with the Attorney Gen
eral. and see no reason why the
counties cannot issue bonds and con-
struct roads without waiting for an
enabling act by the legislature The
Supreme court is going to be asked
to pass upon the subject with as
little delay as possible, SO that if
bonds are voted there will be no legal
difficulties in the way of their sale.
There is no reason why the peo-
pie should go on paying out great
sums-$20,00O or more a year in
Wallowa county--for mud roads when
they have the authority to build per-
manent, year around roads.
The sums we are now paying for
temporary roads, that for a number
of months in each year are no roads
at all, would pay the interest on a
sufficient sum to cover this county
with fine, year around roads.
County bonds for road improvement
drawing only per cent interest, can
be sold at par. We are using $780, 600
yearly of 10 per cent money on make
shift roads. No man who is at all
posted on the subject will say that
$4,000 is near enough It doesn't
maintain in even fair condition the
roads we have. But $4,000 paid as
interest on 100000 worth of per
manent, year around roads, would
mean good roads everywhere over the
county.
Why should Wallowa county wait
until the pioneers who made this
country what it is are all dead and
gone before a start is made on good
roads? Those pioneers are entitl-
FED to the best there is and they de-
serve to enjoy good roads as we'll as

MAIL STAGE IS
stuck IN LITTLE
MISSOURI RIVER

MEDORA, May Zz.-The down.
river mail met with vicissitudes when
the deep water floated it from the
stage in crossing the Little Missouri
here Wednesday. Ray Wood started
on the route, driving a half-broke
bronx and one that occasionally
holds his faithful service in allegiance
for short periods, and when the high
water carried the sacks from the
buggy at the first crossing, he dared
not stop or turn in the dangerous
current and bog to recover them. A
chance observer brought the news to
town, and Clip Jones, Hal Cookery and
Charles Will went horseback to the
rescue. The lost mail was recovered
at the second crossing and brought
back. The stage trip was Abandoned;
but when mid7stream was reached on
the return the balky horse proceeded
to attract public attention to him:
self, refusing to act upon request or
to leave his position in the spotlight.
The horsemen tried unsuccessfully to
drag the outfit out, but after one was
endorsed and all thoroughly wet that
was abandoned, the team unhitched
and allowed to come out loose, and
the rig taken ashore by means of
lariat and saddle horn.

Sen. Nelson
Says TAFT
IS WRONG
Claims President is Evadinq
u. 5. Constitution
Defends Srnate's Right Il
Amend all Treaties

WASHINGTON, May Ex-senator
Nelson of Minnesota attacked Presi-
dent Taft today before the Senate
finance committee for seeking to pre-
vent the Senate from amending the
Canadian reciprocity bill.
He declared that the constitution
made the Senate a part of the treaty.
making power of the country and
offered several amendments to the
measure.
Senator Nelson's amendments would
reduce about one,half of the existing
tariff rates on most of the farm
products.
To put farm products on the free
list, he declared, was legislating d.
rectly against the farmers. He de-
clared that President Taft is evading
the constitution of the United States
when he tries to force the Senate to
accept this agreement as it was pre-
scented.
Senator Nelson urged the commit
tee to consider the case fully, and his
amendments. He said the
Senate had amended previous treaties
and that there was valid reason why
it should not amend the Canadian
agreement.

RUSSELL CASE
TO Be settled
Principal Says He is Ready
for Second Hearing
Interest Again Awakens in
fiQht for Fortune

BOSTON, Mass, May PA new
skirmish today in the slumbering Tor
tune fight of Dan Russell and the pos.
sibility that there may be two hearings
i'm June. Has awakened the public
interest in the remarkable identity
case. Counsel of VIM. c. Russell, the
Melrose recluse, declared today that
they were now ready for the trial of
the ranchman's appeal and that it may
be reached in June. The lawyers al >
so affirmed the intention of VIM. c..
Russell to contest the motion filed
today by L. L. Silbert, junior counsel
for Dakota Dan. asking for hearing
on June 5, of his petition made last
March asking that his claims be re-
cognied. He confesses because of
failure of Williams attorneys to an
swer his petition in equity made in
1909 A peculiar phase of the motion
filed today is that if the hearing is
granted it will be held before Judge
who has already declared the
ranchman an imposter. The retrial
of the famous case is expected to come
up in Suffolk county. however; in it
all the activity of the opposing coun-
sci would indicate that the proceedings
for settlement are all off. From re-
liable sources it has been given out
hat the lawyers were arranging to
split the estate with the Dakota claim
mt Those in position to know belive
hat the case will never come to trial
md that settlement is eventually |
o be made. The absence of Senator |
Jimpson is taken as certain indi- |
cation that there will be no trial. The
mysterious attitude of both camps
las baffled the public and is in con-
rast with the willingness of both
ides to make announcements during
he first trial.
