About the Low Water Mark.

Some of the reporters in river towns,
says the Dubuque Telegraph, have evil
IDENTIFY forgotten or ere ignorant of the
fact that the "low water mark" so often
spoken of in river reports is fixed by gov
eminent survey and cannot be changed,
except BY the government authorities,
even though the water go below the lowest
previously known record. This error is
seen in the following dispatch, printed in
the St. Louis Globe Democrat:
The river report in future will read SO
much above or below the low water mark
of 1891, instead of 1864. ss before. Late
last night the water in the channel stood
at inches below the famous low water
mark of 1864 This has been the subject
of much interesting discussion among
river men today, there being no change in
the stage of the water. Capt Daniel Dav-
idson, of the rsftbost Reindeer, one OF the
oldest steambostmen on the river, and
known from New Orleans to the head of
navigation, among other interesting
things has this to say regarding the pres
ent condition of river affairs: Steam
boatmen have perfect record OF the low
water of 1854 On bowlder of the Keo.
kuk rapids canal. called Mechanics
rock. This mark is more reliable than
any other, such as the bridge or any
other gauges. and there are score OF
riveImen who are guided almost entirely
by the mark on Mechanics rock. aud it
can be absolutely relied on when the
statement is made that the water is now
below that of 1861 and hereafter reports
will date from this year"

The testimony before the jury bore out

THE statement made lately by Major John w. Powell, director of the U. s.

 What Colorado River is Major Powell talking about? If he is re- fering 10 the Little Colorado River, one of the principal tributaries of the Great Colorado River, he is right. If Brother Darlington don't think the Little Colorado River is saline anywhere north of Spring erville to where it empties into the Nile of the west let him come up and investigate, and visit the head waters of the Little Colorado River, the finest portion of Arizon, above all salines of any kind, where hun dreds of cold spring branches filled with delicious trout form the source of the Little Colorado River in the White Mountains, the future sum- mer resort not only of the citizens of southern Arizona, but of a large proportion of the people of the whole country who are able to take their families out of the sweltering cities, during the hot summer, to a new and most delightful place of resort and recreation.
