a drainage scheme on a colossal
scale has been brought to the attention
Of the California legislature for its
Endorsement It is proposed to reclaim
all the low lands Of the Sacramento
Valley north of the Montezuma hills,
at cost OF 100000, to meet which the
entire district must be bonded. One

tion Of equal magnitude. A powerful
lobby, managed by a United States
senator, Is said to be behind the bill
providing for legislative sanction Of
the enterprise The plan more in detail
calls for a bypass canal on the west
side Of the Upper Sacramento River to
carry off the foothill water Another
bypass canal on the east side Of the
river will carry the river flood water
that has proved to be more than the
channel could contain. From the con-
huence Of the Feather and Sacramento
rivers great channel 1000 to $500 feet
wide will take the water all the way to
the Rio Vista, and thence to Sulsun
Bay and the ocean. These canals are
designed to reclaim more than 10000
acres OF Sacramento Valley lands, now
altogether or at times under water. I'll

of public works that the result OF the
work contemplated in the bill will be
to increase the assessed value Of Sacra- |

Intended merely to build enormously |
strong levees on both sides OF the pro-
posed channels, leaving room for the |

The failure OF nearly all useful legis-
lation at Salem this session, including
that relating to the fishing interests,
is directly due to the arbitrary and
Inexcusable course Of the Republicans
who bolted the senatorial caucus. Leg
isIation is nothing more than the har-
monizIng Of conflicting interests; the
making Of rules intended for the bet
terment and protection of the greatest
number and no ruling party in a
legislative body, no matter how large
It's majority, can accomplish anything
OF Importance without organization and
a reasonable degree Of discipline-ln all
OF which the Republicans have been
totally lacking since the first day OF the
session. The rule that all party differ
ences In a mixed political assembly
must be settled In party caucus--apart
from the main body-has been dictated
by long experience. and It cannot be
violated, even in the most trivial in
stance, without the risk of much mis-
chief, and sometimes the entailment OF
permanent party injury. The projection
of the personal prejudice and the sell
FISH ambitions Of few supposed leaders
into the party councils at Salem this
winter may cost the Republicans of
Oregon dear, because 1t cannot be dis
puted that the material interests of |
the state have suffered from the strife
and dissension which has followed. Can |
It be doubted, for example, that II the
clatsop county representatives had
acquieaced in the choice of their party
majority for United States senator

fear Of incurring the criticism or

cultyf And so II has been with other

There are several matters OF import.
ance which may not be finally acted
upon by the present congress. The bill
for a uniform system OF bankruptcy is
one Of these. The measure which
passed the house some time ago pro-

been so amended and changed In the
senate as to be practically a new bill.

THE WORLDS GREAT TUNNELS.
The Cost of Construction Has Been Largel,
Reduced of Late.

In comparing the four great tunnels it
is interesting to note that time is an ex-
traordinary element in tho cost. The old
est tunnel-Hoosac-cost 1879 foot;
Mount Gents, next Oldest, cost 1856 foot
St. Gothard cost 1929 foot, and tho most
recent tunnel of the four-the Arlberg-
cost only 1854 foot. All four were in
old settled countries, with abundant labor,
and the very great difference in cost per
foot plainly marks the progress of science
because it was the invention and improve
ment in tools that made it possible to re-
duce the time and thus the cost
To observe the differences between tho
work on the three great European tunnels
built by government aid in old settled
countries it may be well to observe for a
moment thework done on comparatively
small tunnel built far from civilization
through the Cascade mountains on the line
of the Northern Pacific railroad. The
mountain through which tho tunnel was
cut is 1910 feet above tho sea, and the
peak is l, 1876 feet above the floor Of the tun-
mel. To understand the magnitude and
difficulty of this undertaking it must be
observed that the site of the tunnel, at the
time the contract for its construction was
signed, was an unbroken wilderness.
AT the then existing terminus of rail
connection everything men and tents,
food, horses, machinery, lumber, hospitals
and, in fact, tho material of an army had
to be transported over improvised roads so
miles through forest, through snow and
mud to the east portal of the tunnel and
81 miles to the west portal Six months
passed before all the machinery was on
the spot. Rivers had to DO turned aside.
bridges built, camps established and men
and horses collected, fed, housed and cared
for nearly 100 miles from locomotive.
The tunnel is 1615 feet wide and 90 feet
high, and the entire distance, 8, $50 feet,
was bored through the mountain in %
months, the rate of progress with the DOW

The Cautious Carp,

In tho second act, scene /, of "Hamlet"
we find Polonius saying to Reynaldo, "See
you now; your bait of falsehood takes this
carp of truth, which would seem to inn
ply that your carp was gullible creature,
such, however, and, alas not being tho
case, at any rate in these days. Nor was
this fish regarded as an easy prey by the
skilled anglers of $50 years ago. Writing
about 30 years after the death of our Inn
mortal subject, Master Izaak Walton says:
The carp is tho queen of rivers very
subtle fish; if you will fish for a carp, you
must put on very largo measure Of pa
thence.
Elsewhere, with pain, one notes unflat-
tering reference to Cyprinus, which Va
Mere lauds thus: "Of all the fish that
swim the watery mead, not one in cunning
can the carp exceed" Button was SO i'm
pressed with itS extreme caution and will
ness that he designated it the fresh water
fox AS for Walton, to that which we have
already quoted, there is appended tho re-
mark, He Is hard to be caught" Now,
whatever may BIO thought of old Isaak as u
naturalist, 1t must be admitted that as re-
CARDS deluding coarse fish he was decided.

CumminSs' Story Of Horace Greeley.

"Whilo 1 have the floor" said Amos
Cummings, Il might as well tell story
about Horace Greeley. l worked with
Greeley for years. T., always called me
Asa never could remember Amos One
day went out to see Greeley at Chappa-
qua about some newspaper business. The
old gentleman saw me coming as he stood
looking out tho window and opened the
door himself
"'Come in here, Asa, he said in his
high, mcaly tones as he led me into u
fashion of parlor. uJ
Il followed him into tho room, and as
was only going to remain a moment laid
my hat, gloves and cane on q center table.
Greeley and l had just immersed ourselves
in talk when Mrs Greeley swept into
the room. NOT Mrs. q. was what one
might call spirited woman. The mo-
mcnt she entered the door her eyes fell in
dignantly on my trousseau MS I'd piled IL

Without u word and before I could speak
to her she swoopcd on the outfit like q
1shhawk, and the next moment threw
them out of the window.
Then she left the room without paus-
ing for speech, as one who had taught
somebody that the hall was the place for
hats and canes and similar bric-a-b rac
was inclined to get triflc hot. A man
naturally might who sees his hat pounccd

way and checred me with the remark:

Letters OF ANGER.

Good men and women are often tempted
TO speak or write hard things Of their
neighbc-s. Those who have grace enough
will steadily resist this temptation. but
the worldly will often yield to it unless
restrained by policy. When a Christian
has been wronged, he should remember
the counsel Of St. James, BE swift to
hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath" If at
any time one should, in a sudden fit of
passion, write scathing letter, he should
not mail it at once but keep it two or three
days. 1t will be we'll to withhold it until
after the Sabbath. Perhaps after the hal.
lowed influences Of the holy day have come
upon him he will not send the letter
Many letter has been written under n
spell OF wrath and sent in haste which
would never have gone if the author had
delayed for day. His wrath would have
cooled, his Judgment would have had time
10 act, his conscience would have been
hearu from, his memory would have called
up the wholesome counsels OF the word Of
GOD He would have spared himself and
Others much pain and trouble.
