selves the seas would In a short time
be simple mass of living organisms.
But the cetochilus, or whale food"
constitutes almost the exclusive food
of the vast shoals of behring's and the
sea living salmon and salmon trout.
Their existence is one of the greatest
economic triumphs of nature, for these
minute creatures scour the sea of its
refuse ana keep it sweet, while they
form the food Of fishes, which In turn
furnish wholesome food for millions OF
human beings.
Feeding on dead vegetable and ami
NAL matter, these chromosomes arc
converted into the food fishes Of the
world by one remove, being first assim-
Hated by the behring's, then absorbed
by the funny, cod, mackerel and other
fishes which follow herring shoals and
prey upon the latter. They mainly
swim on the surface of the water, and
it is the search of them In this position
which brings the shoals Of behring's to
the surface. Their countless numbers
are also augmented by the microscopic
larvae of fixed shells, such as the bar
nacle, which begins life In this form
first as a one eyed swimming crusta-
cean, then growing pair of eyes and
finally afixing itself
In rivers these larvae are the sole
food of all young fish and often also of
older fish. In early spring the crea-
lures in every stage-eggs, larvae and

and on the water plants and were 1t

WONDERFUL MIRAGES.


Those Seen In the Winter TwiIights
In Northern Alaska.
The most wonderful mirages ever be-
held by mortal eyes are those that are
seen In the twilight winter days in
northern Alaska. These remarkable
CHASTITY pictures of things, both mag
mary and real, are mirrored on the
surface of the waste plains instead Of
upon the clouds or In the atmosphere.
Mimic lakes and water courses fringed
with vegetation are to be seen pictured
as real as life on the surface of the
snow, while grassy mounds, stumps,
trees, logs, ETC., which have an actual
existence some place on the earths sur
face, are outlined against mountains Of
snow in all kinds of fantastic shapes.
Some Of these objects are distorted
and magnified into the shapes of huge,
ungainly animals and reptiles of enor-
nous proportions. The fogs and mists
are driven across these wastes by the
winds, and as the objects referred to
loom up in the flying vapors they ap-
pear like living creatures and seem to
be actually moving rapidly across the
plain.
At other times they appear high In
the air, but this is a characteristic Of
the northern mirages that are seen
near the seashore. When the vapors
and mists are driven out to sea the
images mirrored in them appear to be
lunging through the waters at terrific
rate Of speed, dashing the spray high
In the air, while huge breakers roll
over them and onward toward the
mountainous islands beyond and
against which they all appear to be
dashing. Monstrous serpents, appar-
emily several hundred feet long, some
times with riders on their backs, men
on horseback thirty to fifty feet in
height, animals and birds of all kinds
of horrible shapes and colors seem to
be scurrying past, racing and chasing
each other until they are lost in the
twilight fogs or dashed to pieces upon
the rocky islands mentioned above and
which are twenty miles out to sea.

Is Dry Farming the Solution of Mum
 Der of Pressing Problems?

Contrary to commonly accepted ideas as the statement may be, it is, never theless, an ample demonstrated fact that wherever in this great arid em- pire the annual rainfall averages as high as twelve inches, as good crops can be raised without irrigation as with it. This means that almost every acre of the great plains between the Rocky mountains, and most of the in ter-mountains parks and plateaus be- tween the Rockies and the Pacific, will produce as abundandly as will the rich prairie lands of Iowa, Missouri and Illinois. and much more abundantly than the richest of the lands in any of the older states along the Atlantic sea board; that there is enough land now utilized, if at all. only for grazing to make possible the trebling or quad rupling of the present farming popu- lation of the United States: that out side of comparatively small areas in western Texas and in portions of Utah. Nevada. Arizona Idaho, Wyoming South Dakota and Southern Califor- mia, there is little arable land in the great West that may not be divided into forty-acre farms, each one of which will be capable of supporting an average sized family.
 Probably there is no eXaggeratiOn of the statement made by one writer that the region between the foothills of the Rocky mountains. bounded on the south by the Rio Grande, and on the north by the Canadian border, is capa- ble of producing fruits, cereals. vege- tables and live stock sufficient for the support of the entire present pOpula- ton of the globe, This vast area of fertile. and as yet almost unutilized land, is the foundation upon which the American people must build for the continuance of their prosperity for at least a century to cIme. Properly utilized, it may solve many perpleXing problems. It will relieve the cOnges- tiOn of the cities. provide an outlet for superintendent capital and afford Op- portunities for the enterprising and discontented for decades. It contains the richest mineral deposits, the great est forest resources, the most fertile soil and the most genial and salub- rious Climate on this continent. What it's development and exploitation would mean to the transportation, manufac- turing, mercantile, financial and labor interests of the nation cannot be even dimly foreshadowed. It will relieve the congestion of the cities, be felt not merely in the great centers of popula- tion and industry. but in the remotest hamlet and on the most isolated farm in the republication L.

This is a larger increase of business than the office has had during any preceding year for eight years, for which the figures are easily available. The June business was also larger than the May business notwithstanding it includes the early summer season, when many people leave the city.

ed, ssSend us back to Washington,
Oh constituents of ours, and we
will checkmate every attempt at
tariff revision in the next congress
even as we have in this"
Is it not strange, passing strange,
that the advocates of GA cause of
Justice, righteousness and republi-
canism' should need to resort to
small bore trickery and shool meet
ing connivance in order to gain a
paltry advantage. In support of
this proposition it is only necessary
for the Herald to call attention
to the fact that every stand pat
speech occupies the front page of
the congressional record and the
opposition remarks are buried in
the most obscure position possible.
We are willing to waive all this.
We are willing to rest our case on
the speeches and statements OF the
standpatters exclusively. They
admit: That many commodities
controlled by trusts are protected to
an extent that shuts out outside
competition; that many COM
modities protected by tariff are
being sold cheaper in the markets
they are protected against than in
the markets where they are pro-
tected; that we are protecting in
dustries that we are not seeking to
encourage and that the tariff on the
commodities above mentioned
produce no revenue. All this is
admitted and here we rest and 60
to the jury of disinterested republi-
can voters. If any man favors a
protective tariff on the class of
commodities that we have mentioned
above, his brain is so thoroughly
encrusted with the hard pan of
hopeless idiocy that one could not
hope to get an up-to-date idea into
his head even if he encased it in a
bullet and fired it at him straight
between the eyes out of a modern
rifle,
