on the Salt Lake, Haley & Puget Sound

purchase of 10000 ties, which looks like
business.

The lines in the Western Passenger asso-

large body of water where the arid
sands formerly lay. Another plan en-
braced the diversion of the waters of
the Colorado river into the dry plains
for purposes of irrigation, and these
plans were partially carried out, the soil
being specially productive. Senator
John P. Jones caused government
survey OF the desert to be made with
the view of ascertaining the practica-
bility of flooding the Colorado from the
gulf, and we believe the scheme was
found feasible. 1t is understood that
the gulf mas been advancing steadily on
the desert during the past ten years. 1t
would be strange thing if the ocean
were starting out to reconquer its old
territory. But whether this be so or
not, the singular phenomenon at Salton
is as reported, and it cannot fail to en-
list the attention of savants.

able in August, and the governments
gold reserve of one hundred millions of
dollars will have to be broken into for
that purpose. The record of the billion
dollar congress is the saddest history of
prodigality with which the records OF
the United States are burdened. It
will render the most stringent economy
necessary for years TO come. The chasm
which has separated promise from per-
formance in the case of Harrison and
his party is wider than the gulf which
intervenes between America and Asia.
And yet, we are credibly informed, the
little gentleman in the white house is
busily employed devising schemes for
his own denomination, ignorant of the
fact that all that the American people
seek is an opportunity to snow him
under the biggest adverse majority ever
cast against any man except General
Winfield Scott. He does not know this,
but we suspect his party does, and that
they will give him wide berth accord
ingly.
