TO OPPOSE
GOVERNMENT

Determined opposition to the recla-
nation services plan to confiscate
their water rights for their pumping
plant on Orchard mesa was COM
menced today by Mrs. James If.
Smith and George p. Smith.
The governments contention is
that, in order to get water for the
High Line ditch, they have a prior
ity which dates back to the Louisiana
purchase and antedates the earliest
filings and adjudication on the Grand
river. This contention was disal-
lowed by Judge Cayender when the
case was brought up in review of
the referees findings last year, but
the government las appealed the
case.
Today a company was formed and
called the Smith Brothers Orchard &
Irrigation company. Directors are:
Geo. p. Smith, G. Albert Smith, Err
win II. Smith, Orson Adams and S.
G. McMullin. The fight against the
government will be under the name
of this corporation
George Peyton Smith leaves to-
night for Washington to confer with
legal firm which has been employed
to carry on the fight.

Excellent Historical picture

THE Siege of Petersburg" given
at the Majestic, proved a wonderful
film Saturday evening, being por-
trayed with careful attention to de-
tail and the setting. The only his
torical inaccuracy noticeable was the
fact that no negro troops were por-
trayed in the picture, whereas, in the
Battle of the Crater itself, which was
one of the bloodiest battles of the
whole war, the colored soldiers play
ed prominent part. When the fed
erals exploded their counter-mine
and rushed troops into the immense
Crater made by the explosion, on
through to the midst of the Confed-
crate camp, two regiments of negro
troops We're placed in front of the
Federal army and forced into the
crater at the point of the bayonet,
and the fearful slaughter which en-
sued, cost the Union army thousands
of negro troops, and very few white
ones, while the very pick of the Con-
federate army was found ready and
waiting and easily repulsed the at
tack, but with loss of men such as
could not be easily replaced. The
negro troops were conspicuous by
their absence in the picture film and
the incident is one which is omitted
from most of the northern histories
in the schools.

Fritz Plunkett a well known ma

the fact that 385 families, compris-
ing 1,108 children, are receiving pen
sions. The average paid to each fam
lily is $27,61, and the average to: each
child $8.12.
Since the. law grants SIS for the
first child and SO for each additional
child, though Hunter is very careful
to say that this rests with Judge
Pinckney and cannot be enforced if
it is not the pleasure of the Judge,
there is discrepancy of $1.88 be-
tween the average of $8.12 and the
lowest amount the law allows, $40,
and discrepancy of $6.SS between
the average and the highest amount,
$15.
The reporter questioned Hunter
regarding this.
His explanation was rather vague,
very windy without conveying much
solid information, but it had to do
with "the expense of investigation
that was really part of the pension,
etc."
Investigation is expensive Hunt
er fairly gloated But believe in it.
Charity should never be given with

pie who would impose. The investi-
