which that constitution applies. Nor
is Senator Dubois responsible for the
popularity Of Mormon church teaching
which insists that man is unprincipled
who desires to maintain the inviolabil-
ity Of the constitution and laws Of his
State.
The plea of the Post is interesting
and significant as showing that, from
the Mormon viewpoint, the Mormons
cannot live their religion without prac-
ticing crime. 1t is interesting and sig
nifcant as showing that these people
when they entered the Union to be-
come citizons in common with the rest
Of the citizenship of this country must
either have violated their religious con-
victions or must have held in reserve
special prerogative for themselves,
for today they candidly admit that
they cannot take an oath which is ae-
ceptable to all other citizens Of Idaho.
a far better view of the case than
the one taken by the Post is the opln-
ion expressed in an editorial OF the
Spokane (Washington) Spokesman-R Re-
view, which Is reprinted in The Tribune
today under the title; "Why Object
to Test Oath?'' The Post and all the
other low and high Mormon prints
might learn a lesson in practical good
sense from tho Spokesman-Review.
That paper voices the general senti-
ment OF the United States, and all the
abuse and vituperation which Mormon
writers and speakers can command will
not change the opinion of American
citizens-that, if the test oath is good
enough for other Americans, it is good
enough for Mormous.
This whole cry Of "religious persecu-
tion' is worn out, and tho Nation is
wearied of it. Tho Mormons are per-
mitted to worship God according to the
dictates Of their own conscience; no
law has been mado in this country to
interfere with religious liberty. The
opposition to the Mormon church does
not announce crusade; 1T is a de-
termined righteous insistence upon che
dience to law, patriotism toward Ma
ton, and acceptance Of the constitution
Of the various States Of the Union in
which Mormons reside.
If tho Mormons OF Idaho cannot take
an oath of supreme fealty to the State
and the Nation so much the worse for
the Mormons Of Idaho-they must have
had bad leaders and they must have ac-
ceptcd evil teaching. If the Mormons
Of Idaho prefer to support polyga-
nous church and follow the direction
Of apostles in politics than to abide
the law and act as American citizens,
so much the worse for the Mormons OF
Idaho-they must have very little ap
probation of the magnificent value of
free citizenship, so little appreciation
that they will not miss it when they
lose IT,

RIGHT Of WAY GRANTED.

Robert L. Strahorn. president OF the
North Coast railroad received a tele-
gram from Congressman W L. Jones
yesterday stating that his application
for a right of way across the Yakima
indian reservation had been favorably
reported by the Indian office and APP
proved by Secretary Hitchcock. Ger
tain stipulations as to bridging the
government canals and protecting the
road crossings will have to be COM
piled with. which are minor considera-
rions
With the acquisition OF this piece of
right OF way the North Coast now has
"A route es ahiished from North Yakima

95 miles. The Indians will be settled
with by the North Coast road upon
such terms as may be suggested by
Superintendent Jay Lynch

most a straight line for 30 miles from
Yakima City 70 Granger There is no
grade and not a curve. From Gran
ger to Grand View. another stretch of
20 miles. the right Of way is also
straight with no appreciable grade.

An Uncomfortable River.

Edmund Mitchell in the North
article on "The Salton Sea-" 1t has
been custom of the Southern Pacific
railroad to point out to passengers
travelling over 1t that the road, near
the southeastern limits of California,
was passing over a tract 300 feet be-
low the level of the sea. The tract is
now covered with water to the extent
of 400 square miles. and the water of
the Colorado river is still pouring into
IL. This lake, known as the Salton
sea, will become yet larger and deeper.
Southern Pacific railroad out to high
er ground around the rim of the lake.
and GASES in the desert where water
had been led in and cultivation es-
tablished are now wholly submerged.
How it came about. the North Ameri-
can writer explains. The Colorado
river has been flowing south along the
rim of wide and deep basin. that lies
to the west of it's course. For a dis
tance of about twelve miles below
Yuma barrier of sand hills prevents
the current from taking the direction
of the Salton sink, its natural desti-
nation. as being the lowest point of
depression. But. after passing this
sand-hill ridge. the river. in the bed
1t occupied until recently, continued
on its way through Mexico sluggish
stream. depositing it's heavy burden of
silt secured from a thousand miles OF
canyons. An irrigation company de-
cided to direct a supply of water from
the river across this narrow barrier of
sand to meet an emergency. 1T was
this emergency work, originally a shall
, low and narrow trench. that eventual
ly proved to be the first tiny breach
in Natures own system OF protecting
ievees. For through this aperature,
secured deep and wide by a succession
OF floods, the entire waters OF the Colo
RADIO river. instead of passing gently
south to the Gulf of California, are
now rushing down impetuousiy and
uncontrollably into the Salton Sink.
In other words. this canal is now the
Colorado river, restored to its ancient
bed. the Alamo water course"
The tract submerged Is partly In
Mexico. and this. together with the d.
version of the river from its naturtl
| course, is raising international ques-
tions difficult of solution. There ap-
pears to be no way but to let the river
do Its work: for 1t Is uncomfortable.
