Is Gov. orman Proud of this Record

The extra session of the Thirteenth
General assembly has been drawing
upon the state treasury tor three
weeks. and apparently the fusion
statesmen are furthe from acom-
.plishing anything than when they
were first called to order.
In issuing his call, Gov. Oruan
dwelt with painful emphasis upon the
necessity OF transacting certain leg
islation in a hurry and then adjourn
ing at once But the governor
reckoned without the rapaciousness
of the average Fusion legislator
He might have as well told hungry
horse to take two bites at measure
of oats and then gracefully retire.
During the first three weeks of the
session. the Legislature has accom-
plished practically nothing. 1t has
hired a lot of useless employees who
are dying of ennui. and whose hours
of idleness are costing the state a
pretty sum. 1t Mas debated every
subject, from the Boer war to tariff
revision and has failed to make good
it's own "bluff' about holuing night
sessions to expedite matters which
are considered of vital Importance,
Doubtless the record OF the legis-
ature. during the first three weeks of
the extra session gives extreme pleas
ure to Gov. Orman. 1t is to be
hoped that there is at least one citi-
zeen in the state of Colorado who is
not ashamed of such record of
proiiigate waste of public funds

by the scientists and photographers
The sun shines down and heats the air
lying over the tropic seas, and the air,
becoming thereby lighter per cubic foot,
rises to higher level. Then the cool air
from the polar regions flows toward the
equator to take its place. But when you
stir your cup of coffee in the morning,
though it all goes round together, you
will notice that the little bubbles in the
center, revolving in smaller circle, dor Z
go so fast as the bubbles near the inside
of the cup So with the spinning earth.
The air that revolves with it near the
poles, when brought to the greater circle
of the equator, finds itself very much be-
hind the game; the surface of the earth
and sea spins eastward much faster than
1t is going. The result, as you will easily
see, is a strong east wind. So, al around
the tropic zone, where there is nothing
to obstruct them, we have strong, steady,
easterly winds, which sailors call the
trades"
Now, if we come back to our coffee cup
again, and permit ourselves the indignity
of blowing it to cool it, all the little bub-
bles and the surface liquid will be forced
over: to the side of the cup toward which
we blow. Just so the continuous east
wind in the tropics, blowing day after
day, finally gets the whole surface of the
sea moving before it towards the west.
When this great quantity Of water
reaches the easternmost point Of South
America, it splits like snow on the cow
catcher of an engine, part going south
along the coast, part going north and be-
ing forced into the gulf Of Mexico. Here
the waters of the Mississippi mix their
fine, -infnitesima1 particles of silt with it
to give it its deep blue color Gor perfectly
clear deep waters are black; then.

Hapke. Now, DR.. Hapke is a German.
Accordingly he went to work analysing
samples q: t." dust that had fallen "a diff
ferent places, noticing color, amount, spe
cific gravity, taste, and all other partic-
ulars. The results OF his investigations
have finally appeared in a memoir, to
which is appended map showing the geo.
graphical distribution Of the dust, in
terms of grammes per square kilometer.
It appe,"s nat the cause and origin CT
the dust II il are now once for all deter
mined. The p,edominance Of sand and
the presence of magnetic iron in all the
dust that could be found prove conclusive
ly that the desert region south of Tripoii
and Tunis is responsible for the whole
trouble. The ground of that part CT the
world is not firm enough. 1t is carried up
into the air by the wind and is then
rushed across the, Mediterranean to en-
counter European clouds and to fall upon
European soil, no longer sand, but mud.
Wherever it falls, town and country are
colored a bright red.

however. before the imDlac cable Industry
OF the by-products or Dr.. Hapke's work
will be that it will be easier now to study
the movements of the glaciers. DR.. Hapke
has marked the points at which glaciers
have been discolored by the dust rains,
and. by observing those points, scientists
will be able for the future to study more.
accurately the laws that govern glacier
conditions. Altogether, DR.. Hapke's
memoir illustrates pretty well the charac-
ter of scientific study in Germany at the
present time.
