The "Dry Farmer, Comes In.

To compcate matters, in the last five years there
has been dry farming" to reckon with. II sup
posed that most OF the arabic land in central Wyom
ing was up. and the cattle and sheep men we're
counting retaining the vast stretches of grazing
land that could not be reached by irrigation
But along comes the dry farmer who demonstrates
that by peculiar system OF cultivation il Is possible
TO carry successful farming without irrigation in
country that has little twelve inches OF rain
fall per annum Everything has tended 20 force the
cattle and sheen together and warfare under
such conditions has been inevitable
Until about two years ago, irrigation and agri-
culture were synonymous in Wyoming, but during the

are now a dozen or more flowing wells with capacity
each of 200 barrels per Gay.
The Lander fled JOINS the Popo Agile field on the
north and the ShosnOne field joins the Lander the
north extending into the Wind River Indian reserva-
ton. The Salt Greek oil field is located fifty miles
north of Casper and eight of the wells have been
pumped for ten years They 500 feet deep and
show much oil The Newcastle oil fields
located in the vicinity of Newcastle, county seat of
Weston county, the Burlington road. Their chief
value would be for ubricatng and for fuel purposes
The Bonanza and the Cottonwood oil fields
in close proximity to each other in Big Horn county
near the No Wood river, tributary to the Big Horn
river The Douglas oil field is situated a short dis
lance south of Douglas county seat of Converse
county elevation, 5000 The Oil Mountain field
is situated twenty-five miles west of Casper The
petroleum principally for lubricating purposes. The
Powder River oil field is located the south fork
of Powder river, sixty miles northwest of Casper.
The Rattlesnake and Arago oil fields the north
eastern slope of the Rattlesnake mountains in Ma
county
The successful and profitable development of
many of the oil fields depends largely upon the
struction of new railroad lines.

lies the great future of agriculture in Wyoming and
it to irrigation that the states great growth of
agricultural products is chiefly due.

E SENTIMENT OPPOSED TO DR.. WILSON

IT I is cooIly assumed by DR.. Wilson, because $4,000 out OF the
233933 Democratic voters of the State were led by a clever
distribution of marked ballots through the mail or by hand
on primary election day, that this fractional vote constitutes d
mandate of the 433,b60 voters of the State, and, therefore, that
only in Shame and disgrace" shall any of the 38o,OOO voters VINO
didn't express q preference for his candidate now oppose that can
didate. While openly accepting for his guidance the advice ana
cooperation of Republicans favorable TO his candidate, DR.. Wilson
reprobates any Republican who shall express a contrary preference
among Democrats. He has as publicly assaied two Republican
leaders in the State and made statements about them that ne has
not sustained by a scintila of evidence and which are pronounced
by them absolutely false. Now, in a matter that involves the vital
interests of the State and comes near to a State policy Endorsed by
popular verdicts in every national election, Republican senti
ment is not to be summariy extfnguished, nor yet 1s the sentImen
of the many thousands of protectionist voters who supported the
Democratic ticket in the November election without any idea that
their act would be construed as a vote for a freetrade candi
date for United States senator. DIR. Wilson seemingly cannot
comprehend that there is any connection between the senatorship
and the great material interests of the State or understand the
incongruity of an industrial State like New Jersey, for which tariff
protection is a sheetanchor, being represented in the United States
Senate, and that, too, during a period of tariff reconstruction, by
a declared opponent of any form Of tariff protection.

Passenger. Need Philanthropy.

To the EDITOR of the Evening Star:
The Public Service railway has been
much In public print lately. due to
their "philanthropic'' attitude towards
their employees In giving them volun-
tary increases and old-age pensions.
The employees needed all they received
and are undoubtedly appreciative.
Now the next step for the company TO
take is to be "philanthropic'. towards
the patient, much-abused passenger.
Just at this time, when the Kinney line
Is being made the target OF protest, it
would be wise and benevolent for the
company to make a slight Improvement
in that road. They could, for instance,
run as many cars as they did in 1902,
when they first took possession of the
line. They could also run newer cars.
President McCarter has said that the
company cannot afford to burn up the
cars in use now and for that reason
the public must year with the COM
pany until Buch a time as they find 1t
convenient to buy a few more cars.
Ought not the president of a great
company be ashamed to say that his
concern is too poor to Take off the old,
dirty, Inadequate cars? Surely the
public has a right to demand come
convenience. At times there are as
many as 100 persons in the little four

HENRY {. TINE FORMER VICE -cnANcELLoR

NULL of years and honors, Henry @. Pitney, former vice-chan-
celor of New Jersey, passed peacefully away in his Morris
town home last night. Henry G. Pitney was one of the class
of men whose life careers do honor to their State and nation and
tend to nplift humanity. A profound student of law, a jurist OF the
highest ability, an ideal equity Judge, a model citizen and q devoted
lover of his country, Henry G. Pitney combined the highest qualities
of manhood. In his years he exceeded the limit of threescore
and ten for human life by nearly fourteen years, and he laid down
his important life tasks only after he had attained the age of an
octogenarian. When Henry C. Pitney voluntarily retired from the
bench his physical powers had been impaired, but not those of his
mind. Mentally he was still able to preside over a court in the
most complicated litigation. At the magnificent banquet rendered
to him as a tribute by the New Jersey bar the aged jurist seemed to
possess all the vigor of mind and aouteness that had distinguished
him in the years of his judicial life. The New Jersey judiciary is
justly held abroad in high respect for its character and learning.
The roll of New Jersey judges contains many ilustrious names.
And among them no name is more highly honored than that of
Henry c. Pitney.

DEFAMATION TURNED TO EULOdY.

A Y HEN Robert Davis, of Jersey City, whose death the entire
WV community is now mourning, was in the flesh he was the
object for utilization by certain newspapers in his own
county. Everything that was bad was charged TO him in these
sheets. His motives were impugned, his acts assailed and his
honesty impeached by insinuation. Now that Robert Davis is
dead no political capital or personal advantage can be obtained by
calumniating him, and his defamers have conveniently turned
around, shamefacedly to become his eulogists. The defamation
that met Robert Davis in his life did not harm him in the estimation
OF his fellow citizens. He went on his way, Indifferent to the shafts
of malice, disdainful of venomous attacks and bent only on doing
his duty in all his public and private relations in life. Now that
Robert Davis is dead the true story of his career in public life is
told and the defamatOry papers that in his life sought to debase
him in the public mind are compelled to print the truth and brought
to the acknowledgment that what they had said in defamation of
this man was deliberately and consciously false. Robert Davis did
not need the vindication of the grave. His death only means the
final discontinue of his maligners.

That prev.r,cntins Clock.

To tho Editor of the Evening Star:
l wish the clock on the 'postomce
tower would have the face to hand out
the truth with more regularity for the
benefit of the general public. Time and
time again it has failed to tell the
truth, the whole truth and nothing but
the truth. Its gilded hands have
pointed too brazenly altogether of late
at the silded Roman numerals. Time
was when the old clock on the Centre
Market front could be trusted, but
faith in it was shattered long ago.
We have no public clock on the City
Halls massive front, and the new
Court House is equally guiltless of any
timepiece for him that runs to read.
If we are to have public clocks at
all, let's have them up to the minute.

NEGLECT IN THE SCHOOL DISTRICT.

NE would expect in a community like that of Mount Holly, in
NJ Burlington county, which contains an intelligent class of
population including Philadelphia business men, that at least
the public schools would be properly administered. But the con
trary is the fact at Mount Holly, as the Frelinghuysen Investigating
Committee has just ascertained. The truancy law is not enforced
because the school buildings are overcrowded. The obvious remedy
for the congestion of pupils is the erection of a new building, and
at least one building now in use has been condemned for educational
purposes. In Mount Holly, too, the educational board does it's bust
ness in executive sessions, which partly explains why the school
moneys on deposit do not draw interest. An awakening of public
spirit among the taxpayers in the school districts of the State is
sorely needed. The Legislature may pass remedial and correctional
laws, but if the taxpayers are Indifferent and careless in their school
affairs little good will be done.

RECIPROCITY IN AUTOMOBILINd.

m MONG the pledges of the Democratic State platform last
f\ year was the enactment of legislation which will establish
reciprocity in State automobile travel by giving to motor
lists of other States the same privileges in New Jersey that their
States give to New Jersey motorists. The present law, which
holds up the visitor at the States border for a fee, has been pro
ductive of little revenue for the State, and it has brought the State
IN disrepute abroad. 1t has subjected the New Jersey motorists to
severe fetaliatory laws in other States. 1t has repealed from our
State many visitors, and thus injured the summer resorts and the
business of tradesmen and wayside hotelkeepers and shut out
people who might locate in New Jersey. There will be q strong
representation of motorists at Trenton during the session to keep
the legislators in mind Of the Democratic platform promise 8 EN-,
phattcally Endorsed by the people in the recent election.
