cities and supported by both only
those should have a part who, what
ever their sympathies, have at least
exhibited no open partially, and no
disgraceful willingness to injure one
city by malevolent aspersions or exalt
the other by grotesque untruth. Now
the article in the Encyclopedia Brit
tanica is in evidence. The authorship
Of it is public property and is not de-
MED. The presnse. that the publish
ers. after engaging a man whom they
believed qualified for the task to write
an article, should have deliberately al
tered, without his knowledge, his state
ments made as Of fact. will not stand
for moment.
The publishers engage writers for
this Work; give them instructions as
to topics to4be covered and the number
Of words to be used; receive their
manuscript ana put It into type; send
the proof backsto the author once or
more for his final careful revision;
| and take no ether liberties unless an
| article should be too long, in which
case they might cut out something,
but would not insert statements coined
from their own imagination or change
positive statements into something
| that the author never said or meant to
say. The responsibility for the article
as lit appeared cannot be shirked by
| the gentleman whose initials are at
tached to it.
AS matter of fact, st. Paul has
been very patient about this contempt
ible performance. The article in ques-
| ton was exposed in the newspapers
months ago. O and due punishment
should then have fallen upon the per-
| petrator of so petty and, in view of the
present size and Importance Of these
| cities, we may. almost say Indecent an
act. He did mott apparently suffer in
| the community where he lived, and we
| dropped it. When it comes, however,
to maintaining an exhibit at a great
worlds fair, in which we participate
| and for which we have to help pay,
we certainly have the right to veto abb
| solutely the employment of this man
in any capacity whatever. That he
| should assume to. represent, however
I slightly, the interests of st. Paul; that
he, who has so treated, relatively, the
| two cities should be authorized to rep
resent them Jointly, is truly an anus
| ing conception.
Nothing but "a Minneapolis sense Of
humor could have suggested it, and
| nothing but the same tough material
would prevent can instant withdrawal
of the name of the man after such
| plain improperly had been shown.
| The whole relation in which Minneap-
| oils, at least as represented by this
| newspaper, stands to Prof. McVey Is
a fit topic for joke book. AS for us,
it is just sufficiently serious for us to
assure our friends up the river that, If
he is to have anything to do with the
| Twin City exhibit they cannot with
draw from or break up the whole I'M
| dertaking any too quickly to suit us.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 8.-The
mouse today debated the proposed loan
Of $4,6OO,O0O to the Louisiana Purchase
exposition at st. Louis, as provided
for in the senate amendment to the
urgent deficiency bill, and it was still

Mr.. Tawney (Minn) offered an
amendment to the St. Louis fair loan
amendment relating to the details Of

loan on the general principle that he
opposes the loaning of money by the

Lewis and Clark Bill Passes.
After listening to speeches by Mr..

the Panama canal treaty, the senate
today passed the bill granting assist

was amended so as to close the expo
sltlon on Sundays, and the provision
for a permanent memorial to Lewis ana
Clark was eliminated.
Mr.. Clay announced his intention to
vote for the canal treaty, but at the
same time criticised the conduct OF
| the administration in dealing with the
| situation in Panama. He announced
| his conviction that there had been a.
| Migrant violation of international law

EXPLOIT GEOLOGY AND
WATER RESOURCES
United States Survey Publishes Dis.
coVeries in James River Valley.
Globe Special Washington Service,

Globe Special Washington Service,
1417 G Street
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 8.-The
geology and water resources Of part Of
the lower James River valley, in South
Dakota, have been exploited by Messrs.
j. b. Todd and G. M. Hall in publica-
ton Of the United States geological
survey.
The region treated in their paper in
cludes the Alexandria, Mitchell, HUI
ron and De Smet quadrangIes. It's
peculiar geologic interest arises from
the presence, in its southern portion,
OF a low buried mountain range, cary
ed out of pre- Cambrian rocks, over
which cretaceOus strata were laid down
until the whole became a plain. The
way In which this plain formed has
been clearly revealed by numerous Dor
lngs made for artesian wells.
The economic value Of the investiga-
ton is mainly connected with the un-
foreground water resources, for the
greater part of the region lies in the
artesian basin. The number Of water
bearing strata, the pressure Of the wa
ter, and various other questions con-
nected with the development of this
resource, have been studied with care
NO deposits of mineral ores or coal
are found in this area. Fragments OF
coal are sometimes detected in the
drift, but they have been brought by
the ice or by the streams from the
northern part Of James River valley.
Valuable quarries of red quartzite
have been opened near Spencer and
Alexandria, and might be operated aU
perhaps dozen other points. Chalk
stone and the upper Benton sand
stone have also been used for the con-
struction Of buildings but the mate
rial is not considered sufficiently dur
able. Most Of the stone locally used
for foundations and other rough build
ings is derived from the drift. 1t con-
sists of powders of granite, limestone
and greensboro, which are very dura-
BILE, and with a little care may be neat
ly laid.
Deposits of clay Of economic value
are not certainly known to exist. A
bed was opened southeast of Mitchell,
from which bricks were manufactured
at that place, but the frequent occur
renee Of lime nodules in it made it's
preparation too expensive for practi-
cal purposes. 1t is not improbable
that diligent search might reveal beds
of silt near James river, or gumbo
in the. lake basins, in sufficient guam
tity to be of value in making brick
for local use. The chances are, how
ever, that such a deposit would con-
tain too much lime and coarse mate
rial to make it especially desirable for
brick-making purposes, and it is there
fore not likely that the clay industries
will ever be conspicuously successful
in this region. Walter E. Clark.

Reeves Goes to Paris.

NEW YORK, Feb. 8.-Gen Reyes,
the newly elected president OF Colon
bia, will sail tomorrow for Paris. He
said tonight:
I feel it my duty to be in Paris when
the question Of the sale Of the rights Of
the Panama Canal company to the United
States comes before the French tribunal.
To me the matter is very clear. The
Panama Canal company cannot transfer
it's rights to the United States without
the consent of Colombia, because its con-
tract entered into with Colombia cannot
automatically transfer itself to Panama
province. That province cannot substi-
tute itself for Colombia.

What the Editors Say

1t is said that Congressman Volstead
and other congressman from this state
will take a stand against that of John
Lind on reciprocity with Canada,
claiming that the Republican party in
this state does not want reciprocity.
If they really feel that way, we hope
they will spit it right out, for if we
can judge, John Lind represents Re-
publican as well as Democratic senti-
ment, and represents it ably. There
may be few stand-patterS, especially
among the oficeholders, but the great
majority of Republicans in this state
are not of that kind, and our Repre-
sentatives will find that out in time
The Montevideo Leader.
Speaking of John Lind's speech in
favor of reciprocity with Canada, the
ST. Paul Dispatch says reciprocity
specialized is not Democratic doctrine,
but is Republican by -emption"
1t may be so; it may be so; but how
many Of our Republican congressman
from Minnesota will vote in favor Of
this special reciprocity, and how many
Republican votes will it get in the
house, assuming for a moment that it
is ever allowed to come to a vote, by
its alleged pre- emptors ?-Wabasha
