hills, as. judging by the watershed, must
have been the case along the Pacific coast
Of America, the molten matter would con-
tinually and irresistbly force the crust up
ward, producing chain of mount ains, vol
canic or otherwise, parallel to the coast.
simultaneously, owing to the pressure being
lateral, the molten Liquid would force itself
along existing cleavage planes and lines Of
bedding of Illuminated and stratified rocks,
for it must not be overlooked that all sed
imentary strata upheaveo above sea level
are bent and strained, dried and shrunk
and infiltrated everywhere presenting lines
of fracture and partings, like masonry on
Cyclopean scale. On these the molten
matter, capable of d:ssolving well as
penetrating, presses with ever-increasing
insistence, gathering force perhaps for
years, until resistance suddenly yields and
the fiery liquid is injected with terrihc dis
ruptive force along the lines of bedding.
Thus the shocks of earthquake which star
tie civilization and destroy opulent cities
are produced at uncertain intervals and
without warning On the west coast Of
America we are witnessing this majestic
action in full force today, for the mighty
Pacific is slowly deepening along its eastern
margin, and raising its long shore line into
colossal ridges which now form almost con-
tinuous chains of mountains.

Electric Power in Africa.


1t is gratifying to note that the technical
press has sounded a note of warning
against the preposterous proposal to gener-
ate hydraulic electric power at the Vic
torla falls of the Zambesi river and trans
NIT 1t over distance Of 745 miles for use
in the gold mines at johannesburg. But,
although the proposal to deliver this power
at figure that would be at once economi-
cal to the consumer and profitable to the
company has been ridiculed by the technical
press, the lay public is liable to be msled
by the scheme, which on the face of 1t
would seem to hold out fiattering prospects
of success.
At the present time the most important
transmission of energy for commercial pur-
poses is that from Niagara to Buffalo, where
the distance covered does not exceed twenty
miles. The longest transmission, according
to present information, is that which is In
successful operation in California over a
distance Of about go miles, so that the pro-
posed transmission line in South Africa will
be $40 per cent longer than anything that
has yet been conte mplated.
According to Prof William r.. Ayrton,
who not long ago made a severe criticism
of the scheme in the Lonodn Times, the
Johannesburg mining district consumes
about $50, 600 horse power at an average
cost of 500 horse power a year. Niagara
sends A. 600 horse power to Buffalo, where IL
is sold at about SIPS horse power year,
and Buffalo, as we have noted, is distant
from Niagara only twenty miles.
Furthermore. in the nefghborhood OF
are abundant supplies OF COAL
of which an excellent quality can be deliv-
cred on the Rand for from $3.50 to 81 a ton
Even IL the Victoria Falls plant We're to
be built and a great transmission line con-
structed 1t is not likely that the important
mining industries in johannesburg would be
willing to trust the operation of their costly
plants to the integrity of few copper
cables extending for over 700 miles through
the wilds of a savage country

BY the author of
''The Martyrdom of am
Empress
This is story by one who knows
"a book that rings true, book
written of an isolated and peculiar
people by one of themselves. 1t is
story of land nearer than Paris, but
as remote as dead century, told
by one who calls it home, and
who loves it with all the passionate
devotion of exile.
The men and women who move
through its pages are drawn from
life. The beautiful Breton land
scapes of cliff and sea are depicted
by an artist in word-painting, and
the main incidents of a plot OF deep
interest are actual facts, strange as
they are.

LA TOILETTE CORRECTED.
Better Prices Under the Present
Me hods of BUYING Grain.


Senator lie Toilette contrasts the
present methods with "the old days
when the farmers brought their grain
to market and the buyers gathered
around and bid for the product. Now
the farmer has to hunt up the buyers
in their offices-there is no competi-
ton, for the profits of the buyers
are pooled"
The first part of this statement is
true; the second is not. Methods
have changed, but it is all to the adj
vantage of the farmer. He gets more
under the present condition than
would be possible if former practices
were in vogue. 1t is true that in most
Of the primary markets throughout
the West his buying is limited to two
or three parties. At the smaller sta
lions sometimes only one buyer is
present This is not because Of any
destruction Of competitor by unlaw-
full methods; it is simply because the
parties operating the handling plants,
which they themselves own, can af-
ford to and do pay higher prices for
grain than any one not possessed OF
such facilities. Wagon Buyers are
just as free to operate as ever they
were, but the expense of handling
grain by the primitive method is pro-
hibitOry. The farmer of the West, in
stead of being limited to the COM
petition of the local buyers of his
particular railroad station, has now
the advantage Of the competition OF
the world markets.
There are a number of large grain
concerns which put into the hands OF
every regular buyer at every local
station on every railroad each morn
ing of the year a postal or telegraph
offer based on the elise of the pre-
vious days markets in Chicago, New
York and Liverpool, whichever may
be the highest. These men are ex-
pected to telegraph how 'uuch they
will sell at these prices and there is
the sharpest kind of competition be-
tween the BUYERS at the local sta
tions to get as much grain as possible.
So keen is this strife that the prices
paid for grain frequently allow less
than One-half cent a bushel margin
for the buyer-all of which inures to
the direct advantage of the farmer.
Under the old method a margin of
three to six cents, and frequently
more, was exacted by the buyer in
order to insure himself against loss.
This great benefit to the producer
has been made possible through the
concentration of the business into a
comparatively few hands and the CO.
operation of the railroads in equaliz-
ing rates to the various ports From
the Railway and Engineering Review
