This dispatch is taken to mean that there will be plenty of water at Fair banks this year, and that nature has done that which the people ot that place asked authority of the army de- partment to do for themselves. There are two channels for the Panama river past Fairbanks. Most of the water heretofore has flown through channel that leaves the old course of the river some miles above Fairbanks, causing the channel in front ot that place to be very low most of the time. h fact, it has been called slough, partly filled with water backed up from near Cinema. The people endeavored to get the con sent of the army department to turn the water from the present main chan nel, which passes Fairbanks by, into the old one. It was contended that this would give the metropolis good har- Dor. The people of Cinema and others objected to the contemplated action and the army department refused its con sent. The dispatches today say the river resumed the old channel through natural causes. Whether or not nature was aid by elterprising citizens of Fair banks is not stated.
