At the outlet of this valley, which
will eventually be the lake, there is
an opening in the mountains which
will be filled with dam now just
beginning to be built. This dam
will be 265 feet high, $50 feet long

1t will be So feet thick at the bot

at the rate of 900 barrels a day at
the dam site, of which it is estimated
that 100000 barrels will be needed
in building the dam. Saw mills are
also manufacturing lumber near by,
of which 100000 feet will be

Lie and Lay.

Here is good exposition of the

correct application. The excerpt is
from "Correct English" a monthly
magazine published at Evanston,

down for rest every day."
Mrs. A.-"I never shall lay down.
IF I need rest, | shall lie down and

position. Mable was lying down,
and the house was very still, so |
Law down too. | had been lying
down on the couch for about three
minutes, when Mable awoke and
made the house ring with her bowls.

fore for some time. The funniest
thing happened. Yesterday, when

her things on the table; never

hour I hunted for those clothes and

A large part of every community
is more or less influenced by preju-
dice. People being SO influenced
are always ready, and some of them
greedy, to hear and believe anything
derogatory of other people. These
are looking continually for the sem
sational. These are they who hail
and iubilate over the fulminations of
a Stefens, a Lawson, a Tarbell.
And the Stefenses, the Lawsons and
the Tarbells write to tickle the fancy
of these people who are hunting for
the sensational. The truthful, de-
liberate historian finds no sanction
or support from this class. A writer
in Detroit paper has this to say of
Miss Tarbell's study of John D.
Rockefeller:
Miss Tarbell's study of Rookie
Teller is the study of a monster, but,
curiously enough, the monster turns
out to be Miss Tarbell herself. AT
no place in Miss Tarbell's study
does it appear that she has ever gone
to Mr.. Rockefeller personally for
information, even on the gravest
charges which she levels against
him; that she ever thought to ask
him what are the motives of his LIES
work, in whose general results she
finds nothing to praise, everything
to decry. That Miss Tarbell has
the hardihood to write of a man
whom she does not quote in his own
defense is in itself refutation of her
honesty of purpose, a condemnation
of her weight as a historian.

FOIL PAN TO
OFFICER AMERICAN
SHIPS WITH ALIENS

SAN FRANCISCO, July 31.-An
extensive attempt to officer American
ships with foreigners who too sud
denly secured naturalization papers
has been frustrated here. After two
weeks Of investigation, Special Treas
ury Agent Richard II. Taylor has
placed nine Of the alleged members
Of the ring in ajil.
The men in the suppositious get
acknowledgements scheme, who have
been arrested, are: Frank Johnson,
well known Politician; Gustav Holm
gren, a water front saloonkeeper;
Herman Won Busse, a petty officer on
the big Americana Hawaiian steamer
Nevadan: Paul Ruppmunl, master-at-
arms on the revenue cutter Thetis;
William Achlstrand, proprietor of a
sailors boarding house; Ernest
Graessler and Frank A. Wirtanen.
The latter is detailed as a witness.
The so-called ring has been active
for the past II months, according to
the United States authorities who
have been engaged in routing out the
il: citizens papers being quoted on
| the water front exchanges at $50
each, and there were many takers.
| The $50 would go to the leaders of
| the ring. These men, or others, des-
! ignated, il is alleged, would go be-
| fore n judge of the superior court
and swear that they had known the
applicant for citizens papers the le-
| gal period of five years, and that dur
| ing that time he had resided in this
country. The citizenship papers
would be issued promptly and the
sailor man would go forthwith to the
United States inspector Of hulls and
boilers and take examination for Of
| ficer's papers. The citizenship docu-
| ments, illegally secured, would be
prime facial evidence that the appli-
cant was an American citizen.
In that way American decks be-
| gan to be trod by a host of aliens
and the American merchant marine
lost it's nationality. The ships be-
came floating expatriates, the wheel
| houses locked against native born or
legitimate citizen masters and the
helms taken from American hands
at $50 a tiller.
One of the men apprehended has
confessed.

][TT[[ f|6HT As
To OWNERSHIP
Of sand ISLAND

SEATTLE, July 31.-The fight be-
tween Washington and Oregon fisher
men over the Sand island seining
grounds in the Columbia river has
been settled for good and all so far
ae these interests are concerned.
However. the suit Of B. F. Houston
OF Tacoma, claiming the island under
a tideland lease from the state of
Washington will be prosecuted in the
courts.
At the time the government leased
the island to a syndicate of Oregon
fishermen, over the protest of Wash
ington fishermen who had used the
waters about the island for years un-
der licenses from the state of Wash
ington, which contends the island is
on this side Of the Columbia, there
was much complaint over the unwar-
ranted loss Washington fishermen
would sustain. They had erected
sheds and cabine. owned horses for
hauling in the seines. and generally
costly outfits
Under the terms of settlement the
Oregon syndicate purchases all the
sheds and cabins, horses and outfits
of about one-half Of the Washington
fishermen and has entered into an
agreement with the balance which
will allow them to Jointly use the
island and adjacent waters on good
terms
The matter is now definitely set
tied and naught remains to clear the
Oregon fshermens title to the gov
eminent lease except the Houston
suit

Special Correspondence to The Press
ASHEVILLE, N. c., July 81
Little Mamie Gibson, a 15-year-old
mountain girl, saved a whole train
load of people from being dashed
down the mountainside in front of
her house.
In recognition of this heroic act,
the Southern railroad promised her
a college education. Her mountaineer
lover, finding it out, married her by
stealth, in hopes to prevent her GO
ing. Her future is now depending
upon a suit for divorce which her
father is bringing for her.
Mamie lives in the mountains, &c
miles east of this city. The dream
of her life has been to receive an ed
ucation and grow up a lady. Its
realization had always seemed TO be
as far away as the skies. Now II
seems to be at hand, and she has
been simply daZed by the fairy-like
prospect.
1t all came about one day when
had blocked the track at a sharp
curve of the Southern railway neal
her home. Even as she looked there
sounded the whistle of a passenger
train laundering down the mountain
Mamie met the emergency by
sending Patty Gibson, her 13-year-
old sister, down the track to guard
