devilish letter has given her such a
shock that we dare not Immediately
subject her to the fatigue OF the long

As he shows it to them and they try
to decipher 1t, Barnes hastily explains
how he had purchased the mutilated
letter from Maud Chartris with mar
rons glaces.

will guess that we will occupy it,"
But Prunella Chartris would fly

"Qulckeri" cries Enid.
Quite right, but Prunella Chartris
shan't hear of a vendetta. Well turn
up at Villefranche, Edwin, in about

DEAL ESTATE AND TEACHERS.

Evidence accumuiates to show that

Figuring on the most economical basis.
taking into account the COST of living
and allowing nothing for accumulation
against sickness or old age. the total
income OF teachers is not adequate, not
even enough TO meet the demands OF
decent living.
There are, as has been urged, some
teachers who take up the profession as
an incident and have no intention OF
making it a permanent employment.
They need no serious consideration; but
the large majority of men and women
who go to the trouble of preparing for
their calling, take ii up as a life work
It is a peculiar calling in that long
continued service units one for other
lines Of activity, with rare exceptions.
1t Is exacting on mind and body, it re-
quires continued study and Astounding
patience. No other profession calls for
such exalted standards and none other
gives such great returns to the people
for the investment.
la view Of all the facts, the public
should be glad, il necessary, to make
some sacrifice in proportion to the sac
rifice the Salt Lake teachers have been
making. 1t is no exaggeration TO say
that they nave been the poorest paid
employees in any branch of public serv-
ice. They have borne with the condi-
tons patiently. cheerfully until they
have become unbearable. They ask
now in a dignified way what they are
entitled to demand as right-salaries

bly, without perjury.
Happily fer the city. its people rec
ognize the justice of the request for
better pay TO teachers. The Real
Estate exchange has considered the
proposal carefully and Endorsed it
heartily. Representing as ii does, large
numbers of heavy taxpayers, being IA
miliar with .he facts, the exchange not
only approves of the increase but will
use its influence to secure means with
which to meet it. The public generally
takes the same position and it is to be
hoped there win be no further delay in
forwarding the measure in the legisla-
ture which is designed TO furnish the
taxing power for this purpose.

TO IMPROVE THE COLORADO.

Ore of the great engineering epics of
the world is the struggle of the men
who have had charge of the fight to re-
channel by stopping the creyasse below
Yuma which flooded the whole Imperial
valley and made the Salton sea. Nu-
merous stories have been written of the
successful effort made last November;
of the fierce struggle by night and by
day to dam the flood; of the sleepless,
tireless energy of the men in charge
as well as the laborers who caught the
spirit of their leaders and did incred-
| ible things to save the homes and lands
Of the 1900 settlers imperiled by the
inland sea that formed. They supposed
they had chained the river, but after a
while the current ate its way through
the headgates of a canal and the work
was all to do over again. Since then,
under Mr.. Harriman's orders a ire
mendous organization has been in play
to make the job permanent with what
result remains to be seen.
The chief difficulty in this undertake
ing has been the nature of the soil. The
deposit of the river for ages has made
bottomless area of silt in. which stone
sinks and disappears, which washes
away at the banks like so much snow,
and which offers no foundation for the
ordinary restraining structures used for
dams and levees. In the November
work mattresses of willows were sunk
first and then held in place by train
loads of stone dumped on top of the
willows until an embankment was
formed. Probably the same plan of
operations is being followed now on
larger scale, but the very able en-
gineers in charge are not sanguine as
to the certainty of permanency after
they have completed their work.
A final and sensible solution of the
problem has been suggested by these
men in their advice that the flood wa
tiers of the Colorado be held in check
by huge storage reservoirs at the upper
sources of the river, which would make
possible the reclamation of hundreds of
thousands of acres of land, and at the
same time prevent the tremendous. on
rush OF water which comes down the
channel at some periods of the year
with irresistible force. This plan has
a great advantage in that IL could be
carried out profitably in spite of the
heavy Investment it WOULD require. The
lands reclaimed could be made to bear
the interest charge on the money re-
auired end repay the principal In easy
instalments. The power rights alone of
such immense reservoirs as would be
required would be worth millions, and
it requires no great stretch OF the i'm
agination TO picture the trans-conti-
mental lines operated over long
stretches by the electricity generated
by impounded floods that now serve
only as destructive agencies in the low
er reaches of the great river.
That some sach plan will be adopted |
and carried through III the coming |
years is more than probable; that il
would build a new empire in what is I
