JUDGE KIBBEy'S SPEECH

Judge Kibbey began his remarks with some humorous references to Senator Ashursts oratory, and ex- plained that he had been too busy, most of his life. to acquire his oppon- ent's arts of oration. He modestly re- ferred to the fact that 1t is not the ora tors who do things or get things. done, either in or out of congress; that ora tory belongs to past era, and that this is a practical age. He also ex- plained that, being busy man, he had never tried to be a politician, and had never tried to acquire the art of as- suming an intense interest in every man he meets. He then said:
 l came to this state about twenty eight years ago as the attorney for the promoters of the Florence canal; and l was directed by my client to look up the law with reference to irrigation the appropriation of water for the pnr- pose of cultivation of the land; to de- termine, if could what were the rights of the appropriator, what might be the rights of a corporation that was incor- porated to construct works to divert that water and deliver it to those lands; and they said to me, We have no pre-conceived notions.

 The Reclamation Act
 In 1902 there was passed by Congress the bill that is commonly known as the Reclamation Act or the National IT, rigation Law" Prior to that however. and pending with that bill was bill introduced into the Congress providing that this county might bond itself for two million dollars for the purpose of constructing reservoir at the site of the Roosevelt reservoir. The two bills went down side by side in Congress, and the Reclamation law was passed, which made unnecessary that special law pro- viding that we might bond ourselves for two million dollars for the purpose of erecting an impounding dam to ere

among those who have given attention to the irrigation law, known as the Wormser case. The trial of that case. involved the rights of the appropria- tions of all the water in this valley. There were many parties to the case. probably eighteen or twenty different canal companies, each of them divert ing the water from this river and ap- plying 1t to the lands. That resulted in decision that has become known in the books and among those who are in terested in the application of law to the question of irrigation as the "Kib- bey decision" Tho case never was ap- pealed to an appellate court, but 1t has been transcribed into text books and into the books published by the Secre- tary of the Interior and the Geological Survey; and 1t was the basis of the de- cision by the late Judge Kent in the famous Kent decision" The princi- pies laid down in the Klbbey decision have been at last recognized all over the arid west, as the true principles ap- plicable to the appropriation and use of water.

 Hopes Take Form.
 These suggestions were taken up by a committee that had been heretofore appointed by the people of this valley. consisting of twentysix members of some of your most distinguished men. Of that committee, of which R. A. Fowler was chairman, and Frank H. Parker was secretary, there was a committee of eleven selected who should have the immediate charge of the matter of the investigation into any means by which we might secure the beenfits of that or of any other law for the storage of water in the

I was to look up and see what thought the law was, as determinable from the books, and l gave to 1t ample time and my services at that time-my best thought.

MEAT CAUSE OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take a Glass of Salts if Your Back

If you must have your meat every
day, eat il, but flush your kidneys with
salts occasionally, says q noted authori.
~ who tells us that meat forms uric
acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys
in their efforts to expel it from the
blood They become sluggish and weak.
en-, then you suffer with dull misery
in the kidney region, sharp pains in the
back or sick headache, dizziness, your
stomach sours, tongue is coated and
when tho weather is bad you have rheu-
matte twinges. The urine gets cloudy,
full of sediment, the channels often get
sore and irritated, obliging you to seek
relief two or three times during the
night.
To neutralize these irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the
body urinous waste get four ounces
of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here;
take tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
hthla, and has been used for genera
tions to flush and stimulate sluggish
kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in

REFUSES TO FOLLOW
ATTORNEY GENERAL
City Attorney of Rutland Believes Free
men Should Vote Regardless of
Time of Paying Taxes.

RUTLAND, Feb. 23.-The board of
civil authority in session next Mon
day night will add to the check lists
OF the city the names of all male citi-
zens who present proof that they are
Il years old, have taken the freeman s
oath and have resided in the state of
Vermont for one year, regardless of
the opinion promulgated by Attorney
General Barber to the effect that all
such citizens are not qualified to vote
on the referendum measures to be de-
clded at the coming election.
This was established at the meeting
of the board of aldermen last evening
after City Attorney Fenton gave an
informal opinion disagreeing with the
attorney general Is ruling.
The matter was not before the board
officially but it was considered advis-
able to secure an expression of opinion
from the members in order to expe-
dlte matters at the meeting of the
board of civil authority next week.
Practically every member of the
board agrees with the city attorney
