WATCH THE RESERVOIRS.

The food disaster in Arizona folio w
ing so close upon the Johustown hor-
ror gives vivid realization of the dan
ger concealed in dams and reservoirs
where great bodies of water are
penned up, and liable at any time to
be broken loose. These food disasters
have taught us that we cannot place i'm
plicit faith in engineering skill. Neither
can we trust to walls of masonry to stay
the force of water. OF all the clements
water is the most difficult to subjugate,
and it is by all odds the most deceptive
ia its movements and operations. The
placid surface Of Lake may convey the
impression that the body of water en-
Yironed in the basin is as forceless as it
is apparently m0tionless: yet down at
the bottom little current may be at
work undermining the prison walls of
the lake. That little current Is pa
tient miner, working industriously
and necessarily through the long days
and the silent nights, until at last its
patient labor is rewarded by removing
the ramparts which were the pride OF
the engineers who constructed them,
and the false security of those who
trusted too implicitly in engineering
skill.
1t is in no spirit of an alarmist, but
simply recognizing tha$ what has hap
pened may happen again, we cali atten-

IL Should Be Dealt With TenderIy,
Not Reprovingiy.
Sunday School Times.
When child shows fear at the moan
ing of the wind about the house, and at
its rafting of the shutters on a winters
night, it is not fair to say to him: "Oh,
nonsense! What are you afraid of
That's nothing but the wind" There is
no help to the child in that saying: but
there is harm to him, in its suggestion
OF the parents lack of sympathy with
him. If, however, the parent says at
such time: "DOeS that sound trouble
you? Let me tell You how it comes;"
and then goes on to show how the wind
is doing Gods work in driving away
causes of sickness, and how it some
times makes sweet music on wires that
are stretched out for it TO play UPON
the child may come to have a new
thought about the wind, and to listen
for its music on the shutters or through
the trees.
One good mother sought to overcome
her little boys fear of thunder by SIM
ply telling him that it was Gods voice
speaking out of the heavens; but that
was one step too many for his thoughts
to take as yet. The thunder Just as il
was was what gave him trouble, no
matter where it came from; so when
the next peal sounded through tine air,
the little fellow whimpered ont de-
spairingly: MAMMA, baby doesn't like
Gods voice. And that mother was too
wise and tender TO rebuke her child for
his unreadineSs for that mood Of reyela-
ton from above.

IN IOWA TO-DAY,

The Inauguration of a governor in
Iowa has not been an occasion to attract
particular attention out of the state. 1t
has been ever since the full organiza-
ton of the Republican party but a sue
cession of men of the same political
school. The installation of the execu-
tive at Des Moines to-day is a notable
event. A delegation of some hundreds
will come from the worlds fair city, and
enthusiastic pilgrims from various sec
lions will be there, besides organized
bodies from most Of the chief towns of
the state. 1t is not an accident, or the
whim of an hour. that enables Iowa to
install Democrat as governor to-day
1t is an indication that the popular dis
position is changing in regard to the
prominent measures Of public policy.
The people have been doinga good deal
of thinking on practical lines, and are
learning to look away from traditions
and old prejudices to the substantial
interests of the masses.

THE WIND sCENTER.

On the principle that it is a wise con-
gresham who knows which way the
wind is blowing. the representative
from the Third Minnesota district may
be classed as statesman. Mr.. HALL
sat in his seat while seven ballots were
being taken on the question of locating
the worlds fair. and never opened his
mouth when his name was called; nor
did it occur to Speaker REED to note
Mr.. HALLS presence in the house.
But by the time they got around to the
eighth and final ballot, the silent Min
nesota congressman, who had been
seeming the wind, caught on to the
fact that Chicago was to be sure win
ner, and managed to land himself on
the right side just at the heels of the
hunt. There are always two classes Of
statesmen in congress; those who lead
and those who follow. Mr.. HALL has
demonstrated his ability to follow when
he has sure thing of it. 1t is evidently
more important in MIR. HALLS estima-
ton to be on the winning side than to
have convictions of his own; and if New
York had been In the lead for seven
ballots, there is scarcely doubt but
that he would have voted for New York
i'll the wind-up.

ton to the fact that there are immense
reservoirs at the head of the Mississippi,
where great bodies of water are held
back for the uses of navigation. We do
not believe there is any danger. either
imminent or remote, that these dams
will break. But they need watching.
There is too great a destructive force
imprisoned within the Enclosures of
these reservoirs to be Indifferent to the
peril that is stored up there. they are
away OFF, too, in wooded country, in
habited only by Indians, who, for some
fancied or real wrong at the hands of
the whites, may at any time take it into
their heads to release the waters and
flood the country below. The damage
that would result from the breaking of
one of these reservoirs would be meal
culable. Hence, we insist that it is the
duty of the government to establish a
perpetual watch upon them.
