peaked mass of dark brown basalt, six
or eight miles in length where it fronts
the river, and rises to the height of al
most 1000 feet above the water. That
it is in motion is the last thought that
would be likely to suggest itself to the
mind of any one passing it, yet it is a
well established fact that this entire
mountain is moving slowly but steadily
down to the river, as if it had DELHI
crate purpose some time in the future to
dam the Columbia and form a great
lake from the Cascades to the Dalles
In its forward and downward move
ment the forest along the base of the
ridge has become submerged in the riv-
er. Large tree stumps can be seen stand
ing dead i'll the water OH this shore.
The railway engineers and brakemen
find that the line of railway which
skirts the foot of the mountain is being
continually forced out of place. At GER
tain points the permanent way and rails
have been pushed eight or ten feet out
of line in a few years. Biologists at
tribute this strange phenomenon to the
fact that the basalt, which constitutes
the bulk of the mountain, rests on
substratum of conglomerate or of soft
sandstone, which the deep, swift cur
rent of the mighty river is constantly
wearing away, or that this softer sub
rock is of itself yielding at great depths
to the enormous weight of the harder
mineral above - Goldthwaite' Geo.
