CAUSE FOR CHANGE

Preliminary facts placed at the dis
posal of the commission inquiring in
to the Reclamation Service indicate
that there was ample cause for the
removal of former Director A. p. Dav-
is and for a searching inquiry into
the affairs of the Service during his
regime. This does not involve any re-
Election upon Mr.. Davis integrity. 1t
appears that the reclamation projects
have overdue payments owed them Of
an aggregate amount Of $135, ,000, 900.
The original cost estimates under
which settlers were induced to take
up farms on the projects were. from
so to 100 per cent too low. Mistakes
in engineering and otherwise. and ex-
cessive overhead charges. are said to
be responsible for those big increases
It has become impossible for the
farmers to make reimbursement with
in the 2O-year time limit fixed by law,
which is expiring on some projects.
and an extension OF similar period
Is asked. On only one OF the 2s
reclamation projects have the pay
ments been made when due, and
many of them are insolvent and
failure from financial standpoint.
Secretary OF the Interior Work as
serts that accurate data on the opera
tions Of the Reclamation Service are
impossible to obtain, but enough is
known to warrant the sweeping In
quiry that has now started. It Is Mr..
Works intention to present the find
ings Of the committee to Congress,
with recommendations for such re-
organization Of the Service and ad-
ditional legislation as may be needed.

wHERE WOULD WE BE.

1t does not take very intelligent
person to condemn some statements
regarding the tariff. Take sugar for in
stance. Is there any one hereabouts
who would be willing to have us go
back to IS and Sc sugar beets. and to
place labor back to the old free trade
times when a laborer drew around tic
times when a labor drew around tic
per hour upwards; as against present
wages of 35c per hour upwards with
sugar beets bringing $10.55 per ton.
The tariff, politicians notwithstand-
standing. is largely local issue.
Why strike at the farmer by agitat-
ing the removal of the tariff on sugar?
What the agricultural interests need
in this country is higher prices for
their products. and to elevate the pro-
ducer the agricultural industry must
have better return for their pro-
ducts. There is no Argument about
this!
Wheat cereals for instances there
any Just reason for the high price on
this product, when 1t Is "puffed? p
1t would seem that the man who in
vented the putting" process. also
"puffed" the price as well. for when
$1.25 wheat goes through this simple
putting" machine 1t comes out onto
the retailers shelf at about $40 or $25
per hundred. Yet you will hear the
free trader tell you that 1t is all on
account of the tariff. Look up the
records. Argentine wheat would put
every American grower out of bust
ness If we had free trade. They sup
ply us through our imports in food
stuffs many, many things.

TO MAKE DEMOCRACY SAFE

Colonel Theodore Roosevelt: "The
first duty of an American citizen Is
that he shall work in politics; his
second duty is that he shall do that
work in a practical manner. and his
third is that it shall be done in ac-
cord with the highest principles Of
honor and justice. To certain extent
his work must be done in accordance
with his individual beliefs and theor-
les of right and wrong. To yet
greater extent it must be done in
combination with others, he yielding
or modifying certain Of his own theor-
les and beliefs SO as to enable him to
stand on a common ground with his
fellows. who have likewise yielded or
modified certain Of their theories and

THE CITY ELECTION.

For several months the people of
the city have been more or less div1d-
ed relative to street improvements.
The Independent has attempted at
all times to be for the best interests
of all the people. We are not con-
trolled by any faction. We have
kept our hands OFF, of entangl-
ing alliances. The whole controversy
has been, in our opinion, handled very
loosely. Both sides have perhaps taken
extreme measures.
The district court now has the past
attempt at street improving upon Its
hands to settle. There Is merit on
both sides. yet we are at a standstiH
This is not wanted by the majority,
yet the method of doing the improve
ment has been attacked on legal
grounds. A special (useless) munich
pal election was held to vote on the
question of making possible the issu-
ance of warrants and bonds without
a vote of the people.
We believe in the majority's ruling
and for that reason we have offered
our columns free to both sides in the
controversy.
Even with the election carrying for
the amendments to the charter. allow
ing the issuance of bonds without a
vote of the taxpaying electors Is ques-
toned by some. The point Is this
II the people as a whole may amend
the charter to saddle indebtedness up
on the taxpaying electors. should not
only taxpaying electors ONLY vote on
said question. This may be tested by
the courts.
The people of the city have before
them next Tuesday the question OF
deciding on officials for the next
two years. There is no other ques'
ton for both set of candidates have
the best interests of the city at heart
and believe in improvements.
Both the Street Improvement Party
and the Taxpayers Party have good
men upon their ticket. The present
officials are asking to be retained in
office on their past records. The
Taxpayers Ticket are equally as well
represented with men, who pledge
themselves to street improvement and
other public matters. There is very
little, If any, difference as to the i'm
provement question.
To us there Is no occasion for a
whole lot of unnecessary noise about
where this ticket or that ticket stands
The voter should remember we live
in Delta and not in Oklahoma. There
is no organization of the Klu Klua
Klan here. There is no "pardoning'
governor to take hand. So we woult
suggest to the voter to carefully con
slider the candidates upon the merits
Of each ticket.
Vote Tuesday and vote for your bes,
interests.

Three years ago when sugar was on
the free list combine got control Of
the market and run the price up to
three times what It is now and did it
just as it Is done now. One reason
the conspirators were able to do the
trick 50 easily was that putting sugar
on the free list threatened the beet
sugar industry in the Northern states
and all that was necessary to rob the
public was to get control of the cane
sugar. Perhaps If some ladies would
get from under the influence of free
trade politicians and study the matter
themselves they would realize that
sugar should pay its share of tariff
taxes as a matter of justice-and that
