ago immense clamOr was raised in this
country about certain frauds upon the
ballot, upon the popular will, in different
States of the UniOn-returning board

the Presidency itself was secured? And

those frauds, received an office from that

Presidency by these frauds? Did L not
hear, did not other members of the Senate
hear, witnesses come before committee
of this body, and the testimony was
printed and spread before the body, in
which the witnesses testified and ad-

THE HOUSE co1rM1rrEE QUARREL.

The grumbling at Washington over
the makeup of the House committees
has more than the usual amount Of
justification and is likely to be longer
lived than similar manifestations of
personal dissatisfaction. The task of the
Speaker is certain to be made more diff
cult than it need have been by the re-
sentiments he has aroused, and the
work of the House will certainly not be
facilitated by the suspicion and distrust
which the composition of the committees
has excited among members of both
parties.-[New York Times, Rep.

The Brafn.Wave Theory.

From the Baltimore American.
Good citizens In whose minds has dwelt the
impression that this is a country Of law and
order, who have gone peacefully about their
business by day, and have laid themselves
calmly down to sleep at night, must now be i'll
formed from two distinct and different authOri-
ties that this republic is on the verge of horrible
events-civil war, assassinations, hand grenades,
dynamite bombs, the upheaval Of society. the
explosion of social volcanoes, ana the evolution
of cosmos into chaos. There cannot be the
slightest doubt about it, for the doctrine of
destruction was almost simultaneously set
forth by Mr.. Chandler, of counsel for the
star route persons, and Herr Most fugitive
socialist, who has kindly consented to come
to the United States and set forth to its
benighted people the gospel of anarchy. We
do not assert that Mr.. Chandler and Herr Most
have been in correspondence with each other.
and it is not probable that they ever had per-
sOnal meeting. The similarity between Mr..
Chambers speech in court at Washington on
Tuesday and Herr Most's address III New York
on Monday night must have been the result of
what is scientifically known as unconscious
correlation, or the occurrence simultaneously of
brain waves in persons far distant from one
another. Mr.. Chandler was positive that the
newspapers are laying the foundations of revo-
luton and the disturbance of social order, and
Herr Most attributed the same effect to deeper
and more divergent causes. As neither gentle
man cOmprehended that he was making q
lamentable spectacle of himself, there may be
future for them in doubling up as serio-cOmic
lecturers

A Novel Time Piece.

From the Virginia City New Enterprise.
A man who was appointed Waterman at a
mine on the COmstock had no watch. He did
not wish to buy one, yet was DESTROYS of know
ing how the time was passing. He borrowed
the watch of friend for one night. On return
ing the watch the next day he told his friend
that he was all right now. that he had a
time-keeper of his own. He then unrOlled a
strip of paper. some four inches in width, from
stick and exhibited it as his clock On this
strip of paper he had marked down. as they
rose above the horizon. all the stars and con-
stellatiOns within narrow belt Opposite each
star was the time of it's making its appearance
hour and minute. The watchman saws his
watch is a fine time-keeper. He has recently
improved it somewhat. The slip of paper now
runs on two small rollers that are placed in a
small box. which has sliding lid of glass. AS
the night wears away and the stars pass over,
he now turns the crank of his watch and looks
at the time marked by the side of each. To
wind up his watch he runs the tape back upon
the initial roller.

channel. The enlarged volume will cause q
proportional increase In the securing and the
material brought down by the flood waters will
be moved forward without injury to the chan
mel.
THE COST
o. the proposed Improvement Mr. Menocal esti-
mated as follows: For bikes and labor, s37 400;
for gates. s23, Sl3-total, s6l, 1913: certain
amount of dredging would be necessary to re-
move indurated Jumps likely to be met with,
and to assist the securing in giving the new
channel a sectional area sufficient to navigation
and the purposes of the yard, but he thought
$4,000 additional would cover all under that
head. To accomplish the object proposed by
the improvements by dredging alone no less
than 600 would be needed at the outset
and for maintenance of the channel an addi-
tlonal annual expenditure which cannot be esti-
mated at less than SO COO or a much larger
amount In proportion if the silt is allowed to
accumulate for considerable length of time.
As to
THE PERMANENCT OF THE WORKS
proposed it may be said that for the first ten
years they will need little or no repairs: after
that length of time the wood above the mean
Level OF the water may require general but mex
pensive repairs for the preservation of the bikes
In their proposed form. 1t is probable, how
ever, that after the equilibrium between the cur
rent and the material composing the bottom is
fully established and the channel enlarged to
| the proposed dimensions. the banks formed by
the deposits on the outside of the bikes will an
swer the purpose of guiding the water and will
contribute to the maintenance of the channel
The gates. being constructed of galvanized iron
and submerged timber. should last for MANY
years. and the occasional repairs that may be re-
quired from time to time can be provided for at
small annual outlay. 1t is believed that when
! the channel has reached the dimensions proposed
no further dredging will be needed, the scour-
Ing being sufficient for its preservation.
The method of Improvement herein suggested
has reference to the channel leading to the yard
only, in which it is supposed the members of
the institute are particularly Interested: but it
may be proper to add. before closing. that the
benefits pointed out as likely to be derived by
the yard as the result of the proposed works
may be made extensive to the UniOntown side
of the river.
The subject discussed by a number of
engineer officers, of both the navy and the army
who were present.
