On the seashore the play of the At
lantic with the coast! What wealth IL
here! Every wave is fortune. One
thinksrof Etzlers and great projectors
who will yet turn all this waste
strength to account. What strength
and fecundity, from the sea monsters,
hugest of animals, to the primary
forms of which it Is the immense era
die, and the phosphOrescent infusories:
it is one vast rolling bed Of life, and
every sparkle is fish. What freedom
and grace with all this might! The
seeing so excellent a spectacle Is GER
tificate to the mind that all imaginable
good shall yet be realized. The sea Is
the chemist that dissolves the noun
tain and the rock, pulverizes old con-
tinents and builds new, forever red1s-
tributing the solid matter OF the globe.
and performs an analogous office in
perpetual new transplanting OF the
races of men over the surface, the ex-
odus of nations. We may well yield
ma for a time to its lessons. But the
nomad instinct, as / said. persists to
drive us to fresh fields and pastures
new. Indeed the variety OF our moods
has an answering variety in the force
of the world, and the sea drives Us
hack to the hills.-Ralph Waldo EN-
erson, In Atlantic.

BEEF PACKERS LOSE.
Federal Supreme Court A.
firms and Continues
Injunction.

Washington, Jan. 31.-The federal
supreme court has decided the case Of
the United States vs.. Swift & Co.,
known as the beef trust case, charging
conspiracy among the packers to fix
prices on fresh meats, etc. The opin-
ion was handed down oy Justice
Holmes and affirmed the decision Of
the court below, which was against
the packers.
In his opinion Justice Holmes dis
cussed at length the various conten.
tions of the packers and disposed of
them individually. He admitted that
some of the charges were less specific
than desirable, but said this was nec-
essarily true on account of the vast ex-
tent Of the field covered. He added
that sufficient evidence had been shown
to prove continuous offenses and an
offense of such nature to justify the
proceedings. The opinion continues
the injunction granted against the
packers under the Sherman antitrust
law BY the lower courts. The opinion
was CONQUERED in by all the mem bers
of the court.

DEMAND FOR WATER POWER.

Waterfalls Enable World, While In
creasing Machinery, to Spare Coal.
Every day sees more and more of
the wasted power Of waterfalls which
lies at mans disposal in every billy
or mountainous country, turned to use
in furnishing electric energy. The
power of waterfalls is driving the
greatest of all tunnels, the double
Simplon bore, through the Alps; it is
sending another tunnel, by devious
ways, behind precipices and under
glaciers to the summit Of the snowy
Jungfrau; and plan is now being per-
fected for constructing, once more with
the aid of waterfalls, and to be run
by them, when finished, rival to the
Simplon road, which shall cross the
Alps between Turin and Martigny.
Everybody knows what Niagara is
doing, and how the waterfalls of Cal
ifornia, and of other mountainous
States, are being barnessed.
A. A. Campbell Swintonf at the re-
cent meeting Of the British Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Science,
presented accurate statistics. which he
had personally collected. showing that
no less than 100000 horsepower de-
rived from waterfalls is now being
utilized in various parts of the world
for the development of electric energy.
OF this great total, which he believed
did not represent the full truth, for
he thought it probable that the real ag-
gregate is 1000. 900 horsepower. nearly
one-third must be credited to the Uni
ted States.
There is one feature Of this utiliza-
ton Of water power In place Of steam
power, which Mr.. Swinton brought
The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1905-02-04

out, and which IL seldom thought az.
and that IL the saving of coal which
1t effects. On the basis of 100000
horsepower derived from waterfalls.
this saving amounts to nearly 12OOO.-
GOO tons Of coal per year.
But the maximum amount of water.
power that Is available has not vet be.
gun 70 be approached in actual utiliza-
ton, SO that the annual saving Of coal
must become larger and larger every
year. This, In view Of the increasing
difficulty Of working many coal mines,
owing to the great depths to which
they have penetrated, and in view Of
the approaching exhaustion of some Of
the most famous fields, becomes a
highly important consideration. Ev-
cry little while the world Is reminded,
more or less sensationally, of a coming
coal famine. The fact Is that coal.
OF the better grades. possesses so many
advantages and conveniences as a fuel
that the earth's supplies of 1t should
be conserved for human use as long
as possible. Men Of science have more
than once sounded a warning against
the waste Of coal, for coal Is the gift
Of geologic age which can not be
renewed. Thus waterfalls, by enabling
US to spare coal, are performing an in
direct service only less important than
their direct service in supplying cleo
trio power. But for them the grow
ing use of electricity would soon make
a drain upon the coal mines of the
most serious character.
The era Of waterfalls seems GER
tainly to have dawned. Every great
cataract will become a focus of In
dustry, just as every great river val
ley has always been a center Of popu-
lation, and Professor Brigham's pre-
diction, that Niagara is to be the In
dustrial center of America. may be full
filled within observation-disclosures

KubIa Khan.


In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure dome decree,
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran.
Through caverns measureless to man,
Down to a sunless sea
So twice five miles of fertile ground
With walls and towers were girdled
round;
And there were gardens bright with sim
uous rills,
Where blossomed many an incense
bearing tree;
And here were forests ancient as the
hills,
Unfolding sunny spots of greenery.
The shadow of the dome of pleasure
Floated midway on the waves,
Where was heard the mingled measure
From the fountain and the caves.
It was a miracle of rare device,
A sunny pleasure dome with caves of ice!
A damsel with a dulcimer
In a vision once l saw;
1t was an Abyssinian maid.
And on her dulcimer she played.
Singing of Mount Abora.
Could / revive within me
Her symphony and song,
To such deep delight 'twould win me
That with music loud and long
would build that dome in air
That sunny dome! those caves of ice!
And all who heard should see them there,
And all should cry, Beware! Beware!
His flashing eyes, his floating hair!
Weave a circle round him thrice,
And close your eyes with holy dread,
For he on honey dew hath fed
And drunk the milk of Paradise.
Samuel r. Coleridge.

Russian Newspaper Calls for Reforms
Proposed by Zemstv0isfS.
st. Petersburg, Jan. 2O.-All Of the
dailie, have resumed publication in
their accustomed form. The papers
are under orders to refrain from all
save the most cautious comment on the
occurrences of Sunday week ago and
the following days, and they do not
print any details beyond the official
reports, holding that. as they are not
permitted to print the truth fully and
freely, they will print nothing further.
The Russ, however. INDUCES in an
open attack on the censorship, which
it declares to be inadvisable and inim.
lcal to the true interests OF Russia at
such a critical time. and appeals to
the newspapers throughout the landt o
disregard it and print the truth as they
see it.
The paper serves plain notice on the
government that the recent events in
dictate that all Russia is demanding
reform and that the proposals Of the
zemstvoists voice the feeling of the
Russian people. The elements behind
the movement for the betterlnent Of
Russia, it adds, are not pickpockets,
criminals or agitators, but landed pro-
prietors, the educated classes and in
telligent labor. In thep ress, the Russ
continues, the government has an I'M
biased adviser. The rulers of Russia
dare not close their ears to all bat one
set Of opinions. The Russ also prints
q 10 columndiscussion of the labor sit
uation in Russia.
Several of the most sensational of
the foreign newspaper correspondents
are reported to have been summoned
to headquarters by Governor General
Trepof and called to accoutn for the
lurid accounts of recent happenings
which they had sent out.

ADDRESS BY CLEVELAND.
Former President Speaks on Subject
of Christianity.

Former President Speaks on Subject
of Christianity.
Philadelphia, Jan. 30-Former Pres
ident Grover Cleveland was the princi-
pal speaker at Sundays exercises in
connection with the celebra ton of the
fiftieth anniversary of the Philadelphia
Young Mems Christian Association.
Mr.. Cleveland's theme was "Chris-
tianity" Amongssother things he said:
Gas serene minded people. con-
scious of the responsibility resting on
us in the matter of self-rule, we should
be reverent people, not merely by lip
service, but ruggedly, strongly rever-
ent. This is not to say we should be
sad, gloomy people. On the contra
ry, with free institutions and with
rights and opportunity which no other
country offers, we should be the most
light-hearted people in the world"
Continuing, Mr.. Cleveland said:
at is not worth while to blink at
the fact that, without going far from
home, we can give hint that nations
called civilized and even Christian are
liable under strong temptation to back
slide to barbarism which permits war
and slaughter to count for a peoples
greatness and reckons ruthless con-
quest among glorious deeds. There is
one effective and constant preventive
aginst such danger and that is the sim
cere acceptance as guidance to national
behavior of the honor, the love of
peace, the devotion to justice and
truth, the forbearance and inviola BILE
good faith which grow out Of genuine
Christianity and civilization. No
stream runs higher than it's source;
and government by the people will
be no better than the people make it.
If these qualities are to be recognized
as guides Of natural conduct under our
plan of rule, the people must command
their public servants"

OLDEST ALTAR IN AMERICA
Church Built by Cortez' Order In Tlas-
Gala Still Stands.

Church Built by Cortez' Order In Tlas-
Gala Still Stands.
Many Americans with the two histo-
rical dates Of 1907 and 1920 firmly
fixed in their minds may be surprised
to learn that for nearly a century be-
fore the days of jamestown and Plym-
Outh Rock Christian affairs had been
standing on this side Of the great wa
ters.
The daring Spaniards followed close
after the great discovery. says a writer
in the Pilgrim, and braved the seas
in search Of treasure. So it was that
the intrepid Cortez marched upon Mon
tezuma's capital after burning his
ships behind him at Vera Cruz. Here
at Tlascala, twenty miles north OF
Puebla and less than fifty miles east
Of Mexico City, Cortez found stanch
allies. Their four chiefs he baptized
from a huge black lava font. Each
of these rulers had key to the great
treasure chest, which can still be seen,
an enormous affair having four locks.
Here is also shown the banner Cor
tez carried in his conquest and after
ward presented the Tlascalans for
their loyalty. 1t is about ten feet long
and forked at the end; its fine and
heavy silk was once a beautiful GRIM
son.
The Tlascalans have again and
again refused almost fabulous sums
offered for it on Behalf of Spain. These
natives throughout the country cling
with a wonderful tenacity to any such
relic, for In their eyes it Is supremely
sacred. At the time of Cortez, Tlas-
Gala was an important city. Charles V.
Of Spain, signed the grant Of arms to
the city, while Phillip II. affixed his
signature to the city charter at BARGE
Iona, May 10. 1885.
The church Of San Francisco, the
original one built by order of Cortez.
is in good preservation, having been
we'll cared for. On the pulpit In the
chapel Is found this unique inscription.
"Aqui tubo principle ell Santo Evan
CELLO en- este nuevo mundo." cHere
the holy gospel had beginning In the
new world.") Like the interior Of all
Mexican churches, this chapel Is high
" decorated, being especially rich In
elaborate statues.
Tlascala is the capital Of the state
of the same name, which happens to
be the smallest commonwealth in the
Mexican union. The city now num-
bers barely 1000 inhabitants, while
the greater part of it's public buildings
show there is no progress and very
little repair.
