A VAST SALT FIELD.

Middle of the Colorado Desert.
In the middle of the Colorado desert,
a little to the north of the Mexican
border and 264 feet below the level of
the sea. lies a field of crystallized salt
more than thousand acres in extent,
presenting a surface as white as snow
and beneath the MONDAY glare of the
sun so dazzling that the naked eye
cannot stand it's radiance. 1t stretches
away for miles and miles about Salton,
Colo, an ocean of blazing, blistering
white
Here daily throughout the year men
are at work overturning the great de-
posit with massive plows and scrapers,
getting it into great piles preliminary
to putting it through the refining proc
ess. The salt plows used to secure the
harvest are great four wheeled imple-
ments driven by steam and managed
by two men. The salt crust is thrown
up in parallel ridges; then laborers
with hoes work it to and fro III the
water, washing out the dirt prelim-
mary to stacking it in mounds to be
taken to the mill.
Salt springs in adjacent foothills are
constantly contributing to the deposit.
and so heavily laden are they with al
most pure salt that the plow has hardly
passed on before new crust has
formed in the furrow left. This fact
renders it unnecessary to operate more
than small portion of the vast de-
posit.
AS may be supposed, work in these
fields is performed under the most try
ing conditions. Ne white man can
stand the intense heat, and for this
reason the work is done wholly by
Japanese and by Coahuila Indians. OF
these the Indians are by far the better
adapted to the work, the Japanese per-
forming only one portion, sewing the
sacks in which the salt is shipped. The
atmosphere, laden as it is with parti-
cles of salt, gives rise to d painful
thirst, and the only available drinking
water comes from, single well. 1t is
warm and i'll tasting.
Beautiful mirages frequently appear
above the great salt field in the day
time. sky pictures of magnificent cities
and flower dotted tree shaded fields
The moonlight. too, produces Won
drously beautiful effects upon the
great field of cleaning salt. For sew
eral weeks in the year the thermome-
ter on the salt field averages lao de-
grees. and the reflection Of the sun
produces glare like that from fur
mace. The deposits vary in thickness
from ten TO twenty inches and form
solid crust over the great marsh. 1t
is estimated that about 700 tons are
now plowed up daily.-New York Trib-
une.

lNJUNCTlONS DOUBLE.EDGED.

The railroads for long time had a
monopoly of injunctions for restrain
ing things they did not like, including
strikers, but the tables are turned on
them by the interstate commerce COM
mission in getting an injunction to
restrain six railroads having terminals
in Chicago from cutting rates and
making determinations.
The railroads have long taunted the
commission with It's desire to get the
rate-making power, while it does not
use the power 1t has to maintain legal
rates. The commission is now doing
this in an effective way, since the six
railroads do not contest the petition
for an injunction. In entering his
order, Judge Grosscup, of the federal
court, said: Personally believe
freight rates should be- as steady and
equal as postage rates, and that no dis
elimination should be made. The per-
son who turns over freight to COM
mon carrier for transportation should
be made to feel that he win enjoy the
same rates as every other shipper. The

based is much more complicated than
mailable matter, and the rates. there
fore, should be subjected to that much
stricter regulation. But the question
here is what power the government
has to enforce the provisions of this
Interstate commerce act. If this an.
pllcation for an Injunction can be
maintained, it will make the courts of
equity the masters of the maintenance
OF rates. Such a finding might also
prove to be the vitalizing principle of
the act"
The origin of the affair, it appears,
was cutting Of rates by some weak
lines In order to take business from
the strong ones. The latter have been
In the habit of letting the weak lines
cut rates secretly, or of cutting their
own rates to meet the cuts of the weak
lines when the latter cut rates openly.
OF course, the strong lines prefer that
rates be maintained, and wish the in
junction a success. But it is now sun
to" the commission to prove instances
OF secret rate cutting, which is hard
to do. The Injunction process, In this

NEWSPAPER COMMENT.

The New York Tribune depreca tes
the marked tendency of America n
newspapers to convert their editor ial
pages into salmagundis of news com.
ment, photographic wit, gossip, pictures
and skits of poetry and provincial ro M
ance. The Tribune being itself digni-
fed and sonorous survival of the an
cient regime in journalism, prefers the
custom of earlier times when grave and
solemn treatment of weighty them e"
was the Office of the editorial page.
We quite agree with the Tribune that
some of the most notable newspapers of
the country have gone to the extreme of
''frivolity and fustian" in the matter
and makeup of their editorial page 8.
Some of@them are like the synopsis OF a
vaudeville show. But we cannot agree
that the old "grave and solemn" aspect
of an editorial page is best fitted Cor tn g
intelligent and quick-acting thought of
the modern generation.
The editorial page of the Tribune is a
model Of it's ideal, and we confess that
we read it with pleasure and enlighten-
ment, but we make the time and have
the purpose that renders it's reading
profitable to us. The Boston Herald has
an editorial page not so ''grave and SOL
emn," perhaps, as that of the Tribune,
but even more valuable for its up-to-
date treatment of "weighty themes. !"
But the happiest mean between the
Tribune ideal and the patchwork pages
say the San Francisco Examiner for
examples the editorial page of the
Washington Post, where seriousness,
humor. wit, poetry and novelty most
happily com mbine.
There are in TACT, but two of the cold
timey" editors left Whitelaw Ried
of the Tribune and Henry Watterson of
of the Louisville Conrier.J Journal. The
one, by reason of wealth and foreign as
sociations, is affected, if not afflicted,
with the conservatism that congests in
the columns OF the London Times. The
tosher, by reason of his birthright and
his free association with get-up-and
get Americanism, is the gray-haired
youth of the profession-pungent as
Prentiss, solid as Dana, witty as McCul-
lagh and genially philosophical as Mr..
Dooley.
The editorial page has ceased it's i'm
portance to the modern newspapers. AS
general rule there is standing order
in al we'll regulated newspaper offices to
side-track "editorial stuff to make
room for the story of fight between
dudes in bar room. with pictures of
