TAKING THE PUBLICITY CURE

Denver Republican: The Kansas
City woman who was robbed of
thousands by one of her intimate
friends, and who "deplores the pub
licity" given the affair, because she
thinks such publicity will make it
hard for the erring one to redeem
herself, seems to be taking a wrong
view of the matter.
Publicity is beyond all doubt the
greatest "cure" of the age. If the
searchlights of the public press were
yelled, and if wrongdoers knew that
general information as to their mis-
deeds would not be circulated,
crime would increase MANIFOLD. 1t
is largely through publicity that hui
mainly is making progress toward
better things The honest man does
not fear publicity, and the dishonest
one respects it SO much that he at
least assumes virtue that he does
not feel. 1t is the dread of being
found out" that keeps many a
weakling from drifting into abso-
lutte crime. 1t is not the mere de-
lection in itself, but the general
knowledge of such detection that is
dreaded. To avoid being publicly
blaZoned as wrongdoer, many an
individual takes the right course
and who shall say that it is not bet
ter to be whipped into path of vir-
ture than to be allowed to drift into
the path of crime?
The Individual who would restrict
such publicity, and who would make
an exception to this punishment by
searchlight, Is not aiding humanity
but injuring it. She may fancy she
is aiding the individual thus protect
ed, but would not the severe lesson
OF publicity be better for the wrong
doer in the long run?
No doubt there are cases of in
Justice, when this public search
light is turned on the wrong person,
or when some individuals offense is
given greater prominence than it de-
serves. But such instances are too
rare to affect publicity's general av-
erage of helpfulness. Publicity is
humanity's great preventive and
corrective. 1t is making this old
world brighter, better and cleaner
every day, and any individual who
"deplores'' It's workings is to be re-
garded as q moral obstructionist.

Sioux Falls Argus-Leader: In the
proper construction of buildings for
the insane, South Dakota is about to
set the pace for the rest of the
states. At the suggestion of DR.. L.
Q. Mead. superintendent of the state
hospital for the insane, the legisla-
ture unanimously passed two i'm
portant measures. One of them re-
Quires that all buildings hereafter
constructed for the housing of the
insane shall be absolutely fireproof.
me other fixes the minimum
amount of cubic air which a room
shall contain for the accommoda-
ton Of given number of patients.
Both OF these measures are now the
law of the state, and it is declared
that South Dakota is the first and
only state in the union to take this
advanced position.
That this is attracting attention
outside Of the state is shown by a
request received by DR.. Mead to
write for the American Journal OF
insanity. published at Baltimore, q
complete statement about the provs-
ions Of the new laws. This request
Or. Mead will comply with as he Is
proud Of the position taken by the
state. under his leadership, and will
gladly do what he can to induce
other states to initiate our example.

AN IRRIGATION DISTRICT
THE RESIDENTS OF wHITESTONE
FLAT HAVE THE RIGHT
IDEA.
WILL COMPLETE DEWEY DITCH
Large Tract OF Semi Arid Laid Is to
Be Put Under Water
By Settlers.

Geo. H. Major was in town Monday
from his homestead in the Whitestone
Flat country. Mr. Major was one of
the engineers on the ill-fated Dewey
irrigation project and has 160 acres
OF land under the proposed ditch. AT
one time in the not long distant past
the Dewey project had rosy aspect.
Large crews of men and teams lined
the proposed course of the big water
way, and dirt was being moved at
speed that presaged early completion
OF the Project. Those fortunate
enough to own land beneath the pro-
posed canal saw in their imagination
the time near by when their land hold
ing would make them wealthy. And
it did not require a very vivid imagi-
nation either TO see prosperity on the
horizon. for with water there would
be no better stretch OF land in the
county than the Whitestone Flat. But
Col. Dewey fell down on the furnish
ing of the sinews OF war and the ditch
was never completed. The land own
ers, however. had become innoculated
with the irrigation idea. and since the
cessation Of work on the Dewey pro-
iect have been casting about for
means and methods OF completing the
Zig canal SO aaspicioGsiy begun last
spring. There is now plan on foot
among the land holders to follow the
plan of action mapped out By the resi-
dents OF this part OF the valley and
organize an irrigation district When
the organization has been effected il
is the purpose to bond the district for
sum sufficient to complete the ditch
and bring the much needed water To
the land There is large acreage
within the proposed district, and il
the plan is carried out land values
will increase many fold. for while
land in that vicinity will become valu-
able with water for fruit raising, in
its present semi-arid condition the
value is largely prospective

could only be initiated by entry. and
as a Consequence. it is provided that
no patent shall issue until the eNpit a.
ton OF i've years IRON the date Of en-
try. and therein II is also plainly re-
quircd that the party seeking 10 Sc
cure patent shall prove residence 'or
the term of five years.
BY the third section OF the act OF
May Ia. 1850. (21 Stat. I41l. it was
provided.
That any settler who has settled.
or who shall hereafter settle. on any
Of the public lands of the United
States. whether surveyed or unsur-
veyed. with the intention of claiming
the same under the homestead laws.
shall be allowed the same time TO file
his homestead application and perfect
his original entry in the United States
land office as is now allowed to set
tiers under the pre-emption laws TO
put their claims on record, and his
right shall relate back to the date OF
settlement, the same as if he settled
under he pre-empion laws.
by this section for the first time
the eaTryman's right was made to re-
late back to the time of his settlement.
and while a party can now claim
credit for period OF residence pre-
ceding the allowance OF his entry. yet
the fse-year period of residence re-
auired by the homestead law is in no
wise affected thereby.
~The practice of according credit
for constructive residence covering
the period of six months following the
allowance OF the entry is. perhaps,
due TO an erroneous Interpretation OF
section 2291 of the revised statutes.
by which section il is provided that on
proof to the satisfaction Of the regis
ter and receiver that a person had
actually changed his residence or
abandoned the land covered by his
homestead entry for more than six
months at any one time, then, in that
event, the land so entered shall re-
vert to the government. While said
section may protect a homesteader
from contest for abandonment for a
period OF six months following the al
low ance OF his entry. it is clearly not
authority for according the entryman
credit for constructive residence dur
ing that period

consideration OF this matter | feel IL
