general compulsory installation of wa
ter meters throughout the city would prove
an effective step In preventing shortage
of water in Philadelphia, according to Chief
Carleton L. Davis, of the Bureau OF
Water.
Legislation which will give the bureau
authority to compel the installation of
meters will be introduced into Councils in the
fall by the Finance Committee. of which
Joseph p. Gaffney Is chairman, Chief Davis
said. The plan is said to be heartily ia
vored by both Mayor Smith and Director
Datesman.
with water meters installed in every
building in the city. Chief Davis said. an
Individual responsibility could be fixed on
each property; effective check would
be secured for the enormous waste which
IA directly responsible for the shortage,
and one OF the keys to the solution of the
water problem in this city would be found.
Water meters can be installed in houses
at cost OF from $11 to SIS. Chief Davis
explained This sum will be paid by the
property owner or tenant. Under the present
system It is optional with the consumer
whether or not a meter shall be installed.
1--WE must take the bull by the horns and
put in meters virtually everywhere" he
said.
eat present there are not more than
$4,000 water meters used in the $4,000
establishments in this city. These are
mostly in private houses, where they do the
least good as as CneCklHB waste 10 COH-
cerned They should be installed in every
factory, mill. business and apartment
house where the waste is much greater in
volume.
BEHIND OTHER CITIES.
philadelphia is behind other cities in
this matter. Reports show that sS per cent
of the houses in Cleveland have water
meters, Boston has so per cent and New
York 80 per cent and the percentage is
increasing"
The Water Bureau now charges a min
imum OF S5 per year for metered water.
This entities the consumer to $4,000 gal
Ions of water per year, or more than S42
gallons per day. For water in excess of
this the charge is cents per 1000 gallons,
which is the city's standard meter rate.
This is lower than the rate charged by
any other metered city.
A comparison of the metered rates in
Philadelphia and other cities may be seen
IN the following table:

the Republican policy of protection to

Senator Horace T. DeLong of Grand
Junction addressed the convention at
some length upon the watching and
waiting policy of Mr.. Wilson, especial
ly scoring the president in regard to
the manner in which he has handled
the Mexican situation. He compared
the two men who had been named by
saying, that two years ago Mr.. Baird
was doing his utmost to defeat Con-
gresham Taylor, while Mr.. Vincent
was making every effort possible to
elect Mr.. Taylor. He thought plain
statement of the facts was sufficient
argument why Mr.. Baird should be
nominated and he seconded his nomin-
alton on behalf of Mesa county. Mr..
Parkison of this county was called to
the chair while Mr.. Clarke of Leadville
spoke in favor of the nomination Of
Mr.. Baird. A vote was taken which
resulted as follows:

WHAT Perseverance, AND

1t takes nerve to make a successful
dry farmer, even when one is endowed

to homesteading a piece of dry gov

But when a one-armed man makes

W. A. Bentley of Cattle creek has
one whole arm and stump of the

put in cultivation seven acres of his
homestead with his one arm. The rains
of recent days have insured him
"bumper crop'' and he is making
good. He has an isolated place, is with
means except such as he earns with his
crippled faculties, has no prospect Of

But he has cultivated and improved
his 160 acres for the last four years
and in another year will earn his title
His title will be well earned when he

JUDICIAL CONVENTION
N0MlkA1ES NOoNAh
CONTINUED from page one)

the scope of its territory and measured
by the opportunities for violations of
law in the various enterprises in the
district of q public character, and
otherwise more or less remotely locat-
ed, by population represented by al
most every nation of the world with
characters, education, religion anil
habits as varied and different as the
nationalities represented.
"My friends, did it ever occur to
you that the territory embraced in this
judicial district is larger than tho
kingdoms of Montenegro, Belgium and
many of the kingdoms and principali.
ties of the old world which indulge in
all the luxuries of royalty1 More than
thirteen times larger than the state Of
Rhode Island, would make three such
states as Connecticut, larger than Mas
sachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecti-
cut combined, and that each of these
states has state government, govern
nor, state officers, legislature, senate,
congressman, United States senators,
supreme court and host of state in
stitutions1
"And when I realize these facts,
my friends, 1 approach the acceptance
of the nomination you have so hand
somely offered me with some hesitation
and reluctance. l am somewhat appre-
hensive that the man is not big enough
for the job and 1 can only promise that
I will try to be square with you and
do my level best.
"If L should be elected by the peo-
pie of the district, in the discharge CT
the duties of the office 1 will try to
forget that l ever affiliated with any
political party. 1 will have no friends
to reward or enemies to punish. Every
county, if it so requests, shall nave
local representative, one or more II
necessary. 1t will be an even break
all around, as nearly as 1 can make II.
"It will not be necessary for the
governor to appoint special prose
cutor to prosecute the "bootlegger"
in any county. 1t will not be neees-
sary for the citizens Of the county 70
hire a prosecutor to prosecute viola
tions Of the law.
"The law passed by the last legis-
lature in carrying out the provisions
of the prohibition amendment is dras-
tic in its provisions and II honestly
enforced will send the 'bootlegger'
where he belongs.
"The stock law is amply sufficient
to protect the stock interests of the
state in every department if honestly
and impartially enforced, and the same
may be said Of every statute in the
state. Ny friends, this is neither the
time nor place for me to further par
ticularize as to- our Colorado statutes;
the law is sufficient to protect every
contingency that may arise If suitable
provision is made therefor ss we 10
along and the district attorney will
discharge his duty, as he should do"
