adopt so inches as standard and give
that much water. no more. no less, to
users everywhere. During the de-
bates held here not long since lawyers
pointed out the injustice that could
result from using any fixed standard.
So the Commercial club pascal a raso-
luton in which it asked the 5oSrd q
refrain from following any arbitrary
standard and TO award water to set
tiers in accordance with their needs
In the view of this paper the water
court should heed the request made
by local people. II would make it
especially difficult for farmers dur
irg. the next few years should 80
inches be fixed as a standard. Some
of the land has not been under ditch
very long. In places the bitches are
new and may lose water. The farm
ers have not yet become experts ia
the use of water and they cannot ir-
rigate at exactly the proper time ana
in exactly the right way, Such work
cannot be expected of them. Such
work is not expected of settlers on
government irrigation projects where
there are trained men To show the
settlers how to farm. 1T should not
be expected of ranchers on such
streams as Birch and Mckay creeks.
Until irrigation is reduced to an
exact science and men learn to do
such work perfectly proper leeway
should be given by those who have
ii in their power to specify how much
water farmers may use on their
ranches. The land may have a great
er thirst than the water commission
ers and other experts realize.

NEVER AGAIN"

Developments regarding the peace
banquet furnish some side informa-
ton as to the political situation and
are interesting for the reason the af-
fair seems to have revealed very
decided breach between the colonel
and his successor.
The presence of the colonel at the
banquet is very much desired. 1t is
TO be in the nature of a booster BAN
quet for Taft since international peace
is his trump card, such as it may be.
The friends of the president would
like TO have the colonel attend. His
friendship would be a big asset dur
ing the coming campaign.
But Roosevelt's course indicates he
does not want to attend and that he
has two distinct reasons why he will
not do So The first reason is tha:
he does not favor the arbitration
treaties that the president has been
working up. The colonel likes peace
and favors international peace. But
he is not of the sort TO favor peace at
any price. He would have peace when
il can be had with credit and with
honor and when il cannot be had up
on such basis he will take chance
with war.
The colonel has expressed 'objec-
tion to the Taft treaties for the rea-
son they provide for submitting ques-
ticns of honor to an international
court. He would have this country
decide its questions of honor for it.
self There is too much of the SOL
dier and fighter about Roosevelt for
him to stand for arbitration under all
circumstances. 1t is probable he
would not want any European tribu.
nal to say as to whether or not thi,
country must admit orientals to the
Pacific coast and prescribe for US the
basis upon which we must admit sucr
people. That is a question for Am.
erica to decide and TO decide as thi.
country alone sees fit.
But when the colonel first refused
to attend the banquet his declinatior
was not accepted He was informel
the program would be changed fo
lis benefit and that the pendin,
treaties would not be discussed. They
evidently wanted him there pretty
badly and it seems clear they want
ed him there for the benefit Of Taf
who IS to be in attendance as the her,
OF the hour.
But still the colonel refused to go
He says emphatically that he will no
be there no matter what they do o.
words to that effect From this i
seems the natural inference that tn,
colonel not only refuses to endorst
the pending arbitration treaties bu
that he no longer endorses the MAJ
who is promoting those treaties. What
ever he may do during the comini
campaign 1t seems quite evident h.
will not be in the Taft band wagon
Perhaps his refusal to attend the ban
quet was his way OF saying "neye
again"

ENeLAND's TAXATION.

Great Britain-England, Ireland,
Scotland and Wales-has population
less than one-half that of the United
States. Figures just compiled for the
fiscal year show that the collections
from taxation will amount to upwards
OF one billion dollars.
Here Is a revenue equal to about
that of the United States. In other
words, the citizens of Great Britain
pay individually for the support of the
government twice as much as do the
citizens of the United States.
But while we in the United States
do not know that we are yielding one
penny for governmental purposes. the
people of England are fully aware OF
the tremendous burden placed upon
them. They must go right down into
their pockets for the money. They
are directly taxed. In the United
States taxation is indirect and no one
feels it.
But if the Democratic policy shall
ever be fastened on this country and
the protective tariff Is abandoned for
tariff reform" we shall be forced to
the English standard. Then We shall
have income and all the other sorts
of direct taxation and we would
quickly discover the difference

Commissioners OF Education Draper
must have been perplexed in deciding
what to put into his safe along with

New York Is an old State. 1t had

EoR A MORAL uPLlET.

Last Sunday the opera house was
packed three times. At the meeting
in the afternoon Thousand or more
men were I'm attendance At night 1t
was almost the same story. These
men were interested in the moral up
lift pf the community. Many of them
leaders in the work of the church with
which they are connected, others not
so prominent in that work, but church
members. How many of these same
men will be found tomorrow attend
ing the services in our churches?
The moral uplift of community
comes through the work of the church
people, in the spread of the Gospel
and christian fellowship among men.
What a mighty work for good could be
done in this community if the same en-
thusiasm was displayed in an effort to
bring the men of this city into the fell
lowship of the church as was shown
in getting them to the polls last Mon
day.
Men were invited, yes urged TO hear
the speakers in the cause of temper
ance. How many will be invited,
even, to say nothing of being urged to
attend a church service tomorrow and
hear the Word preached?
Good seed has been sown during the
past few weeks. Men have been
brought to see things as they probably
never saw them before and little en-
enlargement from some one may help
them to go up higher Martinsburg
needs the moral uplift as we'll as the
business uplift and there is no better
time than right now to make the city
better one from every stand point.
