RECORD PRICE FOR WOOL.

One of the largest figures ever reached on the local wool market was that of last week. when Campbell & Francis are reported to have sold to a Boston buyer for 273 cents per pound. Some of the local growers have dispos- ed of their product for 25 cents per pound. However. it is the belief of a few of the local sheep men that the price this year will reach thirty cents before the buy ing season closes. The price of 273 cents f. o. b. Mesa, is the highest ever paid at this place. The present quotations are due to the embargo placed upon wool by the British government.

WATER MUST BE ASSURED
Lands With Only Intermittent Irri- gdtion Supply to Be Entered as Homestedds, Not Desert
 Claims, After This.

The water supply for irrigation derived from freshets in ordinari- ly dry draws or coulees will be sufficient, after this, to make ap- plications for taking up public lands come under the homestead, rather than the desert-land laws. according to a departmental ord CT received by the local land office yesterday. The order involves a nice point of land law in that it has heretofore been customary to permit any bona fide attempt to develop land-whether success ful or not count for final proof on homesteads, while in the case of desert entries, the land must receive from the applicant, or settler, such improvement as will assure it fairly continuous water supply, Tn quantity sufficient to develop it in a satisfactory man. her.
 Hereafter, holders of desert en- tries, to which they have attach ed the flood waters of lntermitt- ent washes or streams, must find some other more reliable water supply, or else take up their land under the homestead laws.
 The paragraph of the order in this case reads:
 Commissioner and local of fcers are advised that entries for lands of this character and with such doubtful available water supply should not be allowed in future. as, in the opinion of the department. the same should be held subject to disposition under the homestead and not the desert land laws"

OUR FAULTS.

Our worst fault, says a great writer, is not seeing that we have any. There can be no re- pentance over wrongs and i'll condition when we are sure that the blame rests entirely with some one else. and the spirit that is satisfied with it's own goodness and attainments ceases to grow. The struggle to overcome faults and weaknesses is hard but to feel no need of such struggle is death.

LOCATING WATER
 WITH THE "WITCH''

.'Kellog's Spring." the place is now called. Water has brought life where before there seemed only the suggestion of death. Pilgrims are forever climbing the hills to view the wonder. The price of hill land has advanced about three hun dred per cent.
 What I did was entirely sim pIe." Kellogg insists. Anyone might have done it. Since my boyhood I have been using the so-called witch to locate many wells. If the work is carefully done there need never be a mis- take. Of course where no water is, no water will be found; but water is nearly everywhere. Sometimes the water witch fairly twists out of the hands so strong is the attraction. The ex- pIanation of it's principle is sim pie. The water in the ground is under terrific pressure. which causes an inaudible hissing. When you hold the willow or peach witch above the spot it bends downward because it is vibrating at the same rate as the water note, and the moment they synchronize they are drawn to- ward each other.
 ''The water witch will not work over a lake, a tub of water or a large buried water main, be- cause in either case there is a lack of the pressure necessary to bring out the note. If, however, the water main is tapped by a smaller pipe a pressure IS created and that smaller pipe can be fol- lowed without difficulty.
 Two years ago 1 was visiting a friend who is the president of a great manufacturing company in Pennsylvania. The cost of water for the factory was enor- nous. Many efforts to obtain water by drilling wells had failed. I trotted around with a witch and located water under the floor of the parlor of the su- perintendent's cottage. The su- perintendent had to move. but the well in the parlor is now sup plying the entire plant. Rufus Steele in February number of Sunset Magazine.

SAVING AND SUCCESS
The Worlds Greatest Men are Not AlW0yS Those Who Are
 Able to Amdss Wealth for ThemselUes.

St. Joseph News Press: A
 great banking house issues, as
 an advertisement, thls quotation
 from James J. Hill: If you
 want to know whether you are to be a success or failure in life you can easily find out. The test is simple and infallibIe. Are you able to save money? If not, drop out. You will lose. You may think not, but you will lose as sure as you live. The seed of success IS not in you. :"
 James J, Hill has far too sound sense and far too wide a vision ever to have said this without qualification. The mere saving of money helps to success in pet ty business; Tn large business it helps but little; and in the pro- fessions. the sciences, the arts and in any line of endeavor, that tends toward physical. social, in- tellectual and moral betterment of mankinds, it counts not at all.
 The worlds greatest man and women whom history ranks as the highest successes, down  through all the ages and who have led us from savagery to civilization, became great, not through what they got, but only did not save their money. they did not save themselves.
 Saving has it's virtues, but it has it's vices, too. It is the worst of all vices when it narrows a soul down to mere money. There are infinitely Acknowledgements than money-making. Indeed, achievement, in any line. is not always success, while reputed failure often is. The most sue cessful men are not necessarily the ones noisily attracting public attention. The best and most useful women are not the bright butterflies of fashion or the stage whose press agents necessarily Haunt their pictures and their little nothings before the public.
 The millions of unlauded men and women who are quietly at tending to their own little tasks every day contributing some thing substantial to industry, prosperity and progress, rearing children in habits of honest labor and right living and supplying that eleYates the moral and intellectual level of their little communities-these are the men and women of real influence and power. Success is theirs in the fullest measure.
 It is not given us all to have success as gorgeous as the rain bow. But no matter. Success in doing ones best. The real success is more in the trying than in the achievement. We may achieve by accident. by chance help of others or of forces that are not ours. But our ideals and our efforts are all our own. It is our purpose and our efforts that are a part of ourselves.
 How shrunken and pitiful a i thing, how hollow a delusion, is the shining so-called success of self-absorbed, money-seeking men and women! They are like that soldier under Galerius. who in footing. found a shining leath- er bag filled with pearls and threw away the pearls but carefully kept the shining bag.

The Office of Judge.

Under our system of government
the judges form the very keystone of
the arch of government divided as it
is into three Independent but co-or-
dinate branches over the pillar of
the executive on the one hand the
legislative on the other, the arch of
the judicial power ties the whole to-
gether and crowns the governmental
edifce. If the executive exceeds its
power the courts correct it. If the
legislation falls not within the limit
the Constitution sets the court an
nuls 1t and its final judgement is
conclusive in either case. 1t is the
sole arbiter of private individual
right. determines rights of property
and settles all controversies in re-
gard to either one. 1t finally de-
termines the responsibility for crime
and passes judgement on the Offend
er. With clean hands and pure hearts

rather than stain the purity of its

in the judiciary is the foundation of
