Uncertainty Of Weather.

Theodore w Hart, of Houston, Texas,
is at the Metropolitan. He is here on a
pleasure trip.
when you talk about the uncertainty
of the weather l always think of your
CITY," said Mr.. Hart last evening. I've
been here several days and | must say
the weather has been delightful. But
year ago, when l stopped off here for sew
eral days on business l thought would
roast. | never struck ii SO hot in all my
life.
THE hotel clerk tells me that during
the month of June past he had TO sleep
under a light blanket. | remember that
June last year; that is, during the time

you slept under a sheet. If your Wash
ington winters are as changeable as your
summers, then l imagine this ought to

medicine. However. l want to say that
with all the drawbacks of the weather,

a Great Water Supply.

It is reported that the engineers of the geological survey now at work at the Bulls Head, on the Colorado river. will report that a dam one hundred feet in height can be built to raise the waters of that great stream to the height necessary for irrigation and electrical purposes. The building of this dam would be one of the greatest feats undertaken bv the government in the United States. and would make of the Colo rado river valley the richest spot on the American continent. Power for mining, milling, railroads and all other purposes could be gener- ated by the falls created by the dam. while at the same time water to irrigate the 255,000 acres of land could be carried around the high lands and distributed to the farmers through the velley below in quan- titles sufficient for all purposes.
 A project of this kind is q neces- sity in Mohave county, and would at once bring it to the front as an agricultural region second to none in the territory. The government can here demonstrate the great value of the inland rivers for irri- gation purposes. We believe that when the survey party makes an investigation of the Grand Cailon of the Colorado river in this county a report will be made recommending that great dam be constructed therein which will generate power sufficient to carry water to the apex of Yampai summit, when it can be carried by gravity to all parts ol the territory.
 A dam in the cafion will be no menace to the people living below it. but the building of the storage dams will always endanger the lives of the residents of the valleys as should one give way few of those living in the low lands will ever be able to get away. The Colorado river is the natural source of water supply for the Territory oi Arizona and it will be but very short time until this matter is clearly proyer to the people of all sections. There are pointsin the Grand Canon where a dam can be put in for less thar $1,O0OO00 and the machinery tC pump water to any height can b' installed for less than that sum. c course it will take large sum o money to carry a canal the severa hundred miles necessary to reacl the Salt River and other irrigabl' valleys of the central part of tn territory, but when completed l would require little expenditure t keep it in repair rand the advantage to be gained over the storage reser voir is incalculable. Instead O spending millions on the storage o water the Salt River valley peopl should look into the Grand Canol and note the great water suppl. that can be had by little hustl and that will give them a never failing supply.-Mohave Miner.
