WHY NOT ?

People on the coast are prone to speak
sneeringly of the "Effete East" Effete
means incapable of efficient energy.
While the term may be properly applied
to perhaps remote and individual cases
or localities, it is not good as applied to
the east as whole. In many things
the cities of the east are far ahead OF
their western compeers; so far ahead in
fact that it will necessarily be genera
Hons before the west can hope to reach
their state of perfection. But there is
one matter in which the east excels.
That the only reason the west does not
compare favorablv is lack of foresight,
and that is in the matter OF public
parks. To lay out city without maxi
ing ample provision for parks is almost
criminal negligence, and yet there are
hundreds of townsites so laid out in the
pushing, energetic, progressive west.
Yakima is one OF them. With abund-
ance of water, plenty of room, and the
climatic conditions that make outdoor
resorts absolutely Indispensable, the
city does not boast public park of any
description. Take this under consider
ation citizens and see if something can
not be done to remedy so garing de-
feet in an otherwise lovely city.

Telegraphio Talking.

Telegraph Talk and Takers" by L.
G. Hall, in McClure's, is a revelation of
some. of the mysteries of "telegraphese''
or Morse" the garrulous tongue of dot
and dash that clicks necessarily around
the globe. Its simplicity to spoken
discourse is really startling. It is al
most uncanny to read that to the ini-
tiated an operators Morse is as in
dicative of character as his speech, his
face, or his dress; nay, that from his
Morse" one can often recognize at
first sight a man whom one has never,
until this meeting, been within many
hundred miles. BY daily communica-
ton over the wire operators grow to
form as close friendships as ever were
made within four ~inclosing walls. Emo
ton is as clearly conveyed by these
little metallic taps as by the most skill
fully modulated voice. The tricks
played on beginners and on awkward
operators by the instrument furnish a
very amusing series of stories.

Reed Cling. to Old District.

Thomas B. Reed, ex-speaker Of the
house, lives in New York, but he still
claims to be a constituent of Congress
man Amos Allen, who succeeded Mr.
Reed as the representative of the first
congressional district. of Maine. When
he wants any documents or publica-
lions MI. Reed always applies to Mr.
Allen for them. Mr.. Reeds wishes in
this line are often extensive, but Mr.
Allen always attends to them person
ally. He secures the books from the
document room, wraps and addresses
them with his own hands and, then car
ries them down to the house postof1ce
and sees them safely started on their
way to New York. MI. Allen for q long
time was clerk Of Mr.. Reeds committee
on rules and he was nominated for con.
gress largely through the efforts OF the
former speaker.

ten years ago 1t was estimated that
the total cost would be 350.000,000 rou-

During the six months ended Dec
81, 1901, there were built in the United
States and officially numbered by the
bureau Of navigation III rugged yes

with 56S rugged vessels Of. 179, 229 gross
tons for the corresponding six months
of 1900. Canal boats and unrigged
barges are not included.
The principal decline, 1882 tons, is
on the Atlantic seaboard, and is at
tributable to work on several large
ocean steamers, which will be COM
pleted during the coming six months.
Included in the six months figures
are thirty-eight vessels, each over
1000 tons and aggregating 103,S32 tons.
OF these fourteen steel steamers, ag-
gregating $3.50 tons, were built on
the great lakes. Four are for the sea-
board, two banana steamers, Watson
and Buchanan, each of 1920 tons; the
Hugoma. 2,182 tons, and the Mime
tonka, 5,270 tons. The Minnetonka
will be cut in two to pass the canals:
On the seaboard fifteen wooden
schooners of 24,864 tons were built,
says the Washington Star, five steel
steamers for the coasting trade and
one steel ferryboat, aggregating 20,964
tons. Square rugged vessels are the
steel ship William P. Frey, 1874 tons,
and two barkentines on the Pacific, ag-
gregating 1910 tons.

KING NOT SUPREME.
SOVEREIGN OF GREAT BRITAIN
DENIED MANY PRIVILEGES.
Restrictions Upon His Conduct Arc
Many and vsried-TaxinE Power Has
Long Been Taken from the Occupant
Of the Throne.

AlCuOuSu mOuarCQ OIL Tue greatest
realm the world has ever known, King
Edward of Great Britain must admit
to certain restrictions upon his per-
sonal conduct that are not imposed
upon his humblest subject.
III the owner Of the biggest and most
valuable business in Great Britain
were to write to the king offering him
a half share in all the profits from that
business for nothing it would be inn
possible for the occupant Of the throne
to accept this generous proposal. Just
as no clergyman or officer may COM
bine business with his profession. SO
the king must not become partner with
= subject.
Neither can he be a tenant nor hold
anything Gin service" from n Of his
subjects. The old law on the subject
declares this to be beneath the kings
dignity. He may, however, accept the
post of executor under a will, but may
not act. He must appoint someone to
do the work for him, for he is sup
posed to have his hands too full of
state duties to attend to trivial private
affairs.
Although, as may be known, the
monarch may dispense with his cabi-
net and most Of his civil servants,
yet he cannot discharge the privy
council, but is obliged to call their aid
against the British constitution for the
king to preside over the privy council.
Queen Anne. was the last occupant Of
the throne to do SO. And although the
original appointment of members of
the privy council is a royal privilege
yet the king may not select any for
eigner-that is, one born out of the
kingdom and not of British parentage
to erve.
The king cannot exempt any class
81 his subjects from duties imposed
upon them by act of parliament. This
was proved when a charter was
granted from a certain college of
physicians exempting them from the
militia tax. After a big lawsuit the
Judgment was in this instance against
the crown. Nor is the king at liberty
to compel any one to lend him money.
The petition Of right which contained
this stipulation meant it as a strong
hint that taxes were in future to be
collected by the orders of parliament,
lot of the crown.
Although the king may pardon a
malefactor, he cannot send him or n
other man to prison of his W au-
!hority, nor has he the power of life
Or death over any Of his subjects. He
has, in fact, no legal power, for he
may not appoint a justice or any other
commission of the peace. The high
sheriff is the only functionary of the
Kind whom he personally, and unaided,
nay appoint.
. The king may make a will dealing
with his private property, but, though
Turing life the crown jewels are his
property, he cannot will them away.
II he marry a Roman Catholic a
king Of England is liable to lose his
throne. 1t is necessary that he be a
member of the Church of England
Ind that he do not evade any condi-
ions of the coronation oath.

THE "SANKERO."
Unhappy Lot of a Peculiar Figure Uf
the Irrigation Country.

Unhappy Lot of a Peculiar Figure nj
the Irrigation Country.
An eastern farmer coming to an irri-
gated valley finds everything as diff
ferent from his accustomed life as he
can well imagine. He must learn an
entirely new language of farming and
a new set of farming rules. His neigh
Dor greets him, not with the remark,
cit looks like rain" but Have you
heard when the water is coming in?"
or ''The bitches are low today" He
learns to speak of miners inches anc
acre feet of water, and he can soon
tell at glance whether ditch is car
rying so or 100 miners inches of wa
ter. He hears wise discussions of
headgates, weirs, laterals and zanjes.
He finds that he is under" certai..
canal, which by and by will come to
seem to him like an memorable fate.
He will very promptly make the ac-
quaintance of the king of the irrigated
land, the zsnjero, in Arizona called
"sankero," in California sometimes
shortened to ''sanky." the water master
or ditch rider, a bronzed man in over
alls and sombrero, who drives about in
a two wheeled cart, with shovel and
a long crooked tined fork by his ssxa
and precious keys in his pockets. He
is the yea and nay of the arid land, the
arbiter of fate, the dispenser of good
and evil, to be blessed by turns and
cursed by turns and to receive both
with the utter unconcern Of small
god, for it is the zanjero who distrib
utes the water. He opens the head
gate of each farmers canal, and when
the water has run the necessary time
he shuts it down again and again locks
it securely. If the water is short, he
sees that it is divided properly between
Smith and Jones and Brown, usually
with Smith and Jones and Brown
watching him like cats. 1t is hard
place, that of zanjero in the valleys,
subject to accusations, temptations,
heartburnings; but, be it said to the
credit of the American, there is many
a zanjero who is universally respected
in his community as an honest man.

New am. For ola ones.

Not every one is aware of just what
the United States subtreasury will do
for person with soiled currency. II
any one has such bills in no matter
how small quantity. and wishes to get
brand new bills, all he has to do is to
go down to the subtreasury and hand
the old currency over the counter. The
government will hand him in return
ne,, bills of any desired denomination.
Perhaps under strict Interpretation
of the law the government clerk might
refuse certain bills on the plea that
they were still tit for circulation, but
in practice the government is inclined
to be very obliging, and, unless the sup
ply of clean money on hand should
happen to be temporarily short. the
clerk will without Hesitation hand over
perfectly new and unfolded bills in re.
turn for money which has been folded
possibly only very few times.
AS matter Of fact vast amount
of money is turned in which could not
have circulated among more than half
dozen hands. But it is all redeemed
and the new currency issued in ex-
change The subtreasury supplies the
aew cash. too without any expense,
no matter if millions are to be ex-
changed. New York Times.
