WATER SERVICE
 RULES l9l4-l5
Only Changes Are Those Regarding Petty A C. counts and Lands Outside Survey Board s Lin e s Limiting the Project

Water service applications, which must be filed on or about october 1. are subject to but two slight changes in rule since this date a year ago. In a statement made through the Republican this morning, the recla- nation service gives the brief rules and regulations for the delivery O. water for the period from october 1, 1914, to September 30, 1915.
 Applicants must buy all the water they intend using right off the bat, and must not maintain several small accounts. This new regulation is designed to prevent confusion and eX tra bookkeeping.
 No lands not approved under the latest report of the survey board will be entitled to water. Those in brief are the only two changes in the rules
 The regulations, which have been duly approved by the department of the interior and by the governors of the Water Users association, are as follows:
 1. No water will be furnished to any land until a proper rental con tract has been signed and payment for water has been made. 2. No reservoir or developed wa ter will be furnished to more than | 160 acres of land in one ownership, except where the owner is legally un- | able at the time application is made to divide his holdings.
  lands so subdivided as to indicate a use for townsite purposes except hY special contracts under the tOwnsite act between the legal agents of such subdivided tracts and the United States
 | 4 When an estate is involved n litigation or in progress of settle ment in the probate court, so that l the true owner is unable to show clear title, a representative of the court, such as trustee eXecuto.- or administrator may sign the applica- tion for water, provided a sufficient showing is made that each heir or party in interest in the eventual set clement of the estate would not he entitled to more than 160 acres
 ,. Rule will also apply to land held in trust for sale or other pur- poses. The declaration of trust must be submitted to the project manage, | as evidence to show that the trust is not held for the purpose of evadina regulations.
 G. An application will not be .4c- | cepted for water service unless the application is for the entire area that it is proposed to irrigate dur ing the irrigation season.
 :. No reservoir or developed Wa ter will be furnished to lands not signed or in good standing with tho Water Users association, or to lands which have not been declared subject to water service in the final report of the board of survey.

WRIGHT WRONG AGAIN

The volatile MT. Wright is vrey much like the Irishman's flea-When you put your finger on him he is not there.
 He starts out by saying l have voluntarily taken up the cudgels in behalf of M.. Chain, and he knows that this is not true.
 I said distinctly and emphatically that with his difference with Hon. Eugene Chafin we have nothing to do Chafin is abundantly able to | take care of himself"
 ! MT. Wright is full of just such mental gymnastics. In his argument in the state publicity pamphlet. page i 10, he quotes pe as saying Arizona is the youngest and most prosperous state in the union" I said nothing 1 of the kind. He now says that in my argument in the state publicity pamphlet I stated that the amend ment would absolutely prohibit the introduction of liquor into the state
 fin any guise.' Of course l did not say this. Then he varies it by say ing under any pretense," and l did not say that
 Just what object MT. Wright has in mis-epresenting my language I am at a loss to understand.
 l MT. Wright says there is no rela- tion between the saloon itself and crime and insanity, but the relation is between the consumption of liquor and crime and insanity. In MT Wright's view the saloons do not deal in such nasty stuff as booze. All the insanity and crime are due to erink bought anywhere else but ir the saloon. The saloon is a sort of side door to heaven, and the saloon can do no wrong. If this view is any satisfaction to MT. Wright let hin entertain it. I would not deprive hin of the pleasure.
 | He also nurses the delusion that secret drinking is more demoralizine than open drinking. and that there will be more drinking where each person is compelled to order his booze from without the state than there is with 1909 open saloons ir the state.
 He ought to know, what everybody else knows, that the demoralizatio7 of drinking is of two kinds: one from the effect of the liGuor, which is just as bad when the liquor is consumed before the multitude as it is when il is consumed behind the closet door and the other is from the example set to others. and in this the demo- ralization is wholly due to the mar who drinks in the open.
 If liquor is made difficult to obtain thousands of people will be deterref from ordering it. They will not g. to the trouble to have it shipped to them f'om abroad, and that is the reason why Kansas is getting alons l with an expense of SIPS per capita for liquor. whereas Missouri spends nearly 5000 per capita under Mir Wrights boasted regulated sale"
 I might say for Mir Wright's In- formation that I did not draft the amendment; that the amendment re-
 mains today just as it was adopted
Arizona republican., 1914-09-23

by the state conventions; that ever since its adoption we have been ac- cumulating information from the courts with reference to it's legal in depreciation; that as rapidly as I se- cured this information I gave it to the public because that was the proper thing to do. It does not pay to be dishonest The worst form of dishonesty in this world is to conceal information in or , der to deceive a public that trusts you. It is my duty to give to the public the fullest and most com plete information as to the probable interpretation of the dry amendment by the courts, and this I 'have done.
 MT. Wright also owes a duty to the public. He is very fond of asking i questions. How would it do for him to answer some himself?
 Did he write the so-called eight year amendment?' i Did he attempt to deceive the puh- : lie into the belief that they could have statewide prohibition for eight years if this amendment carried? ! Did he intend to cut up the present unit of local option into precincts and subdivisions of precincts, So IS i to increase the number of saloons by dividing the territory?
 Did he intend to disfranchise the people for eight years and call it To- cal self government? l How large is the largest unit that Mir Wright would call a basis for To- cal self-government
 What is his smallest unit?
 By what authority does he deny the state the right to be called a so- cial unit for the purpose of self government?
 Why is not the nation a unit for self government?
 Did MT. Wright ever hear of states rights?
 Did he ever hear of those ques- tions that are national because they affect the nation as a whole? Did he ever hear of states seeding from the union because of differences between these two social units of government?
 Did he ever hear of a county se- ceding from the state or a town se- ceding from a county?
 What is his definition of local option unit of government? Now let MT. Wright stop his per sonalities, which have nothing what eve.' to do with the question, and get down to business.

 The Republican has decided to pro- vide for a reasonable discussion of this issue in it's pages. allowing to each side at least a half column daily for signed articles. for which there will be no charge. No anonymous article will be published.

 It is suggested by The Republican that either side, desiring to avail it. self of this offer of space, name a committee through which all matter relating to the issue shall be trans- mitted. In such case, all communica- tions received at this office from other sources will be rejected. We believe that this arrangement is ne- cessary to keep the discussion within reasonable lines.
