DOES IT FLY ?

The announcement from San Francis
60 that DR. August Greth has solved
the problem Of air navigation, will be
received with reservation, owing to the
fact that he fell down in the water
and had to be rescued by the crew OF
a lifeboat II Is explained however
that for some reason the engine did
not develop the power II was calculated
to furnish and that this defect made
II impossible for the inventor to force
his ship against the currents If this is
true, a more powerful engine will be
provided, and air navigation win be II
fact Or, Greths airship appears to he
built on the same principle as that OF
the Brazilian aeronaut who for some
time amused Paris at the risk of his
life. II is different from Langley's.
which II constructed on the aeroplan
principle, but which, so far, has re-
fused to ascend to higher regions.
Neither type appears TO be perfectly
successful, In all probability the flu
ture alrship will be a combination Of
the two types-a conveyance In which
the weight is neutrallzed somewhat by
gas. and which Is propelled by suitable
means. The bird must be the model
Of the airshlp as the fish has been

As To IRRIGATION.

Some time ago We noticed a predlc-
tlon said 10 have been made by gov
eminent official to the effect that irr-
cation OF arid lands would result in
the alkalization OF such lands, until
vegetation became extinct. The prog
nosticator declared that many farms
had been abandoned because Of the al
Kali rising in the soil. He referred to
ancient Babylon as an illustration of
destruction by means Of irrigation: and
said that "the valley Of the Nile has es-
capped because there takes place there
every year a thorough flooding, which
washes down through the lowest depths
OF the soil and cleanses II OF all salts
that are obnoxious"
Secretary Wilson does not anticipate
any such dire results of irrigation. He
says that the alkali problem has been
studied for years, ana that 1t has been
proved that under drainage and rrlga-
tIon flooding will reclaim the worst
lands. He adds: Theoretically this
nus NNNh Nt'Nil lbi lvHB tlHlt, Dut
we have gone to work In number of
instances In Utah, California, Arizona
and other western points and have
practically demonstrated the PROPOSE
tion. The department scientists have
studied our alkall conditions OF typical
irrigated districts covering over three
million acres OF land"
The secretary OF the National Irriga-
tlon Association also takes issue with
the prophet of disaster He says that
the Nile valley has not escaped alkali-
zation; that large tracts have been
abandoned for years because OF an ex-
cess of alkall. but that science Is now
reclalming these lands for agriculture.
There Is Il great deal of land of this
character in lower Egypt and its re-
ciamatlon is progressing with success,
and at a profit.
People who have lived in regions
where Irrigation is a necessity have no
mlsglylngs as to the result. They have
seen the waste places redeemed. and
they know something about the won
ders performed through that means.
The intermountain region OF this coun-
try is sufficient reply to all arguments
against irrigation

THE END IN VIEW.

During the campaign now entered
upon for the municipal election, Il is
10 be hoped that our friends Will keep
cool and avoid actions and expressions
that they may subsequently regret
There have been some severe disap-
pointments, and antagonistie feelings
have run high and sometimes wild and
ordinations and determinations have
been freely hurled back and forth
These will accomplish no real good
and II they have been necessary as
safety valve the steam has been let
off and the noise should cease.
This, however need not hinder leglt-
innate and active work. The large ma
jority OF our titizens know what they
want and what they object to. They
are honest and honorable and II they
do not agree as to men or to policies
they can differ in gentlemanly way
and express their opinions effectually
at the polls. They have right also
TO combine for the accomplishment Of
that which they deem best for the
government OF the city.
All that can be done without resort
ing TO the tactics Of low and venal par
tisanship. There is no necessity for
scurrility abuse, falsehood misrepre-
sentation or trlckery of any kind.
Bribery and corruption are talked
about freely and charges are bruited
abroad which, II true, ought to be
brought home TO the criminals and
they should be htly punished. We hope
they will be fastened where they be-
long or be exposed as hot air" The

this contest It ought to prove disas-
trous to those who undertake 1t and
those who are the recipients.

citizens should be tho election to office

pended upon to work for the public in
