To understand the true utility and full mission
OF the navy, we must constantly bear in mind that
the nation is essentially branch of the country S
military strength it exists that it may fight if need
be- and TO be really useful, it must be sufficiently
strong and sufficiently prepared for its work TO
meet at any moment any enemy it might be, &C
cordng to any reasonable probability called upon
to encounter. We need such navy, because, again
in the words OF Washington, TO secure peace it
must be known that we are at all times ready for

THE BIRDS POINT LEVEE.

The levee work proposed to be done
at Birds Point, as indicated in the
news columns elsewhere. will have az
important effect upon the rivers and
upon the levees in this vicinity The
purpose of this work is, as stated to
close a gap in the embankment there,
through which the ryers at food
time has found relief, by running into
the vast bottoms in Mississippi and
adjoining counties. comprising over
100000 acres. Naturally, this tended
to lower the flood line of the rivers
and II this gap is closed the floods in
both the rivers are likely to rise a
foot or TWO higher than they have
been doing hitherto. The embank-
ment at Birds Point will be Sc feet
high and flood will probably be kept
out IL it should rise foot above
that
1t is likely that such levee will be
ample for all ordinary needs. II will
take an extraordinary flood to rise
above sc feet, such as we had In the
early eighties. A food like those OF
1882 and 4 would very likely rise
above the Sc foot mark with the in
creased mileage Of ;evees and rail
road embankment along the rivers Ia
this section OF the country. Such
floods come seldom. but the people Of
Cairo have cause to feel grateful to
the men who in years past, built us
our strong and high levees-5S feet
high on the Mississippi side and So
feet on the Ohio side.
The line OF the proposed emhank.
ment will run west of Birds Point.

Some day people outside of Alaska will pick up accurate information about the territory. Intelligent men are trying to do it now but they can't get the stuff all at once.

 readers the latest news of Alaska rail- road building. He tells with a close approximation to accuracy of the
 White Pas, N Yukon, the short lines on Seward peninsula projects for building from Valdez and Orca, and then inuoccutly adds:

Failed to Find the Engineers

Jerry Odale came to Seward on the Dora after a fruitless search for the BIakely party of railroad engineers. He evidently passed them on the Su- sitna river by going up one side of an island while they came down on the other. Odale and Mike Knudsen took a boat up to bring the engineers down and went twenty miles above the forks before they decided that Blakely's men had slipped by them in another boat. They left here May 10.

Most new mining districts are dis covered by accident. The reason for this probably is that prospectorS are inclined to search for conditions with which they have become familiar else where. passing by all other occur. rences as of little value. The discov. cry is often made by one entirely un- familiar with geology and unpreju' diced by previous experience. For this reason valuable mines are some, times discovered in most unexpected nInceS.
