Fortunately or unfortunately for
themselves some of the democratic
politicians and editors are possessed
of exceedingly short memories. Some
of them are now taking the republi-
cans in congress to- task for having
failed to give relief to the Cubans
in the way of passing a law reduc-
ing the tariff on raw sugar and are
denouncing the house bill as being
totally inadequate to the e%xigiencies
of the situation. In doing this they
forget that it was only with the as
sistance of the democrats that the
measure prevailed. In their attacks
on the administration and party for
the tariff legislation in reference to
the Philippines they are also unmind-
full of the fact that the Foraker resolu-
ton to reduce the tariff on imports
from the islands cne-half of the
schedule rates was voted against by
II democratic senators. But such lit
tie discrepancies in the record do not
worry the democrats or cause them to
be more careful when making charges
against the opposition.

When it comes to an exhibition of
real staying qualities Representative
Gaines Of Tennessee undoubtedly
leads the procession. Nine years ago
he was elected for the first time and
the first bill he introduced provided
for the construction of a military road
to Fort Donelson. He failed to Sc
cure passage of the measure and since
then at every session of congress has
introduced the same bill. Such per-
sistency and patience were entitled %
their reward and the bill has finally
become a law, having secured the
presidents signature, although it was
thought that this would be withheld
on account of the unfavorable manner
in which the measure was regarded by
the war department. To overcome
the opposition of the department
Gaines made a personal appeal to
Speaker Henderson and explained the
situation to him. Henderson wrote
a letter to the president in which he
said that aside from believing the
easur to be a meritorious one. he
was heartily in favor Of it personal
ly, for he had left a portion of his jaw
at Fort Donelson and adding that the
roads down there were SO bad that he
never had been able to visit the place
since then to look for the missing
part of his anatomy. Before the war
department could be heard the pres
ident signed the bill.

Great Salt Lake Sinking.

The decline in the surface of Great
Salt Lake is causing apprehension
among the people of Utah. This in
teresting body of water has been
steadily sinking fer number of
years. but the causes of its decline
are not well understood 1t is
thought by some that the Lake is
subject to cycles of change which cor
respond to like cycles of years of
heavy and light rainfall and that it
is now undergoing one of its low
water periods from which it will soon
revive. The movements in the waters
have also been thought to be related
to the development of agricultural
and grazing interests, which divert
large quantities of water from the
streams which feed the Lake for Use
upon the land. During past years
the cutting of the timber on the
neighbOring mountains has been un-
usually heavy, practically destroying
the forest protection of the head
waters of a number of streams whose
waters flow into the Lake The cut
ting of these forests is supposed to
have injured the flow of the streams
and thus to have affected the Lake
level. Great Salt Lake is the means
of considerable resource to Utah and
the value OF property near the Lake
and certain lines of business are said
to be unfavorably affected by its de-
cline. The matter is there considered
OF so much Importance that the
United States Geological Survey has
been asked to make an investigation
into it.
