Marx Smiths Retort

The Washington Post of May - thus
refers to Arizona's Delegate to Con
gress:
Delegate Smith, as he is officially
known, "Mark" Smith as he is called
by his friends, and ARIZONA" Smith, as
he will go down in history, told some
interesting things about his territory
when the bill to make Arizona state
was before the House. For instance.
he said that Arizona is as large in area
as Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont,
Massachusetts,, Rhode Island, Con.
necticut, New York aud Delaware com
bined, with enough ground left to
make one more state the size of Della.
ware, or two Rhode Islands. There Is
in Arizona au untouched body OF
forest trees larger than the State Of
Vermont, and also the richest copper
mines in the world Arizona raises the
finest lemons aud oranges, while dates
olives, gigs aud other tropical fruits
grow in prodigal protusion. an the
foothills of our mountains" says Mr.
Smith, peaches are produced superior
to those of the famous Delaware or.
chards, while our melons and can.
teloupes make the Georgia product
taste like pumpkins aud cucum bers. >
Because Representative Lacey, OF
Iowa, asserted that the origin and
meaning of "Arizona" was "arid zone
Deltg gate Smith waxed Indignant. He
broke forth into this original poetic
outburst at Mr.. Lacey's expsense:
! love a man who knows it all,
From east to west, from north to
south:
Who knows all things, both great and
small,
Aud tells it with his tireless mouth;
Who keeps the wondering world in
awe,
The while he works his tireless jaw,
Over things he knows nothing about
General Grosvenor, Of Ohio, was op
posed to the Statehood bill This also
aroused the ire of Delegate Smith, who
evened things by this Characterization
of the doughty statesm from Ohio:
He preservers consistency by being
always wrong, aud an even temper by
being always mad"

Interesting Changes in North Dakota
Lake.

One of the interesting problems
which has come under the notice of
the photographers of the United States
geological survey il the gradual dry.
ing up Of DEVILS lake in North Dakota
Devils lake, or Lake Miuniewauka as
it is called by the Indians, is the larg
est body of water in the state. Ii be-
longs to the numerous class of lakes
formed by the great glacial ice sheet
on its final retreat toward the north
Then and for some time after, when it
was fed by the heavy rains following
the glacial period, it had an outlet to
the south into the Cheyenne river;
and well marked and empty channel
still remains between the lake and the
river. Long before settlers first came
TO the region in 1880, the lake had sunk
below the level Of this channel aud has
since been without an outlet. Regular
observations for the last nineteen
years show steady and almost un-
interrupted sinking of the water
Groves of trees, which once stood at
the beach, are now separated from it
by broad strips of sand, aud the shall
low parts of the lake, notably the long
arms and bays have been left quite
dry.
Another important and interesting
feature is the change in the water from
fresh to salt; this has taken place
within the memory Of man, and is in
some particulars producing unfavor-
able results. Fish were found in the
lake in great abundance mp to about
1888; since then they have grown rap
idly less, until now, practically none
are caught.
The United States geological survey
has recently established bench mark
near the lake, and. under the charge Of
Prof. c. NJ Hall, Of the state agricul-
tural college, will make careful records
of the fluctuations of the waters and a
general study of their decline. The iu
vestigation promises most interesting
results. which may throw some light
upon the climatic conditions of the
past. Exchange.

A Report that is Not a Report

This week the rat" sheet gives what
purports to be the "ofiicial" minutes
of the April meeting of the board of
supervisors. No such minutes appear
of record on the minute book of said
board of supervisors, either signed or
unsigned 1t has been fifty days since
the adjournment of the board and yet
no record has been made of the meet
ing. Yet this fellow is willing to give
the minutes of the board all signed,
sealed and delivered as though they
had an existence in fact. How do the
people like this method of trifling with
an important county record. How
would such record stand up in court
in case of trial in matters affecting
county interests?
