INQUIRY INTO BASIN
OF POTOMAC RIVER,
Principal Features Embraced in an
Interesting Publication.

Hardly river basinin the country
is more important from the point
of view Of utilization of water re-
sources than the Potomac. The
water power developed in this
area drives the wheels of many
mills, and the waters ofthe streams
are used in the pro Cesses of diverse
industries. The beauty of the
streams and the supply of fish have
made large portion of the basin
a recreation ground for thousands
of people, while the Potomac it.
self furnishes drinking water for
the national capital.
In order to obtain definite infor-
nation as to the character of the
water supply an extensive investi-
CATION was undertaken jointly by
the Geological Survey, the Bureau
of Forestry and the Bureau of Fish
cries. The result! Of the work is
a report Just published. by the
Geological Suvey as Water Sup =
ply and Irrigation Paper No. 1872,
copies of which may be obtained
upon application to the director,
United States Geological Survey,
Washington, D. c.
The scope of the paper is bes t
shown by enumerating the princi-
pal features of the investigation,
which are as follows: o. A study
of the GEOGRAPHIC history of the basin
CD the determination of the
amount of water flowing in the
principal streams, a compilation of
data relating to the quantity of
water and a study of the rainfall
CD a complete reconnaissance of
the damage area with respect to
sources of pollution, a study of the
prevalence Of typhoid fever in the
District of Columbia and elsewhere
and an investigation of the quality
of the surface water as shown by
field assays and sanitary and min
eral analyses of water taken at
many points; (4) study by the
Bureau of Forestry of the effect of
soils and forest cover on the tur
bidity of the water and IN flow of
the streams and the preparation OF
a map showing the forest condition
60 a study by the Bureau of Fish :
cries of the effects of industrial
wastes on fishes.
Many citizens of the Potomac
Basin have shown lively interest
in this report, and have given val
liable aid to the authors of the pap
er, Messrs. Horatio n. Parker,
Bailey Willis and r. H. Bolster,
of the Geological Survey; w. w.

and NJ. c. Marsh, of the Bureau of

In the History of the Town of Mid
dleboro," Mass, there is footnot
quoted from the New England Me-
morial," which gives Il curious exam
pie of Indian courts and the ulcs Of
practice in them.
An Indian court in BarnStable coun-
ty, presided over by an Indian magis-
trate, issued the following warrant to
an Indian constable:
Il Hihoudi,
You Peter Waterman,
Jeremy Wicket:

mathematics. Besides the tribun-
ais mentioned there are other
courts authorized by acts of Con-
gress; the most important of which
IS the court of claims created by
the act of Congress in 1855, con-
sisting of five members. But this
court IS not strictly legal tribunal.
Its duties and authority lies in the
adjustments of disputed claims
against the United States and in
this respect is more in the nature
of board than a court of law.
Much more could be produced
on the wide subject of national
jurisprudence and the many laws
of Congress in reference thereto,
but this would necessitate a
lengthy paper, which might not
be desirable by general readers.
For that reason comprehension has
been more in mind than expansion.
The wishes and comforts of read
ers shoHd not be overlooked in Of
fering them reading matter.
This new Federal Court to be
held in Cumberland, with its four
terms a year, is not separate or
independent one, but in the nature
of branch Of the district court
for Maryland, to be presided over
by Judge Morris, his clerk and
marshall tor Cumberland. Juries
will be summoned to be taken, as
is supposed from the three upper
counties of the State. This new
tribunal will be a great accommo-
dation to the people of Western
Maryland in both civil and GRIM
lnal business. 1t will practically
be a home court; and is in line
with the policy of the government
to make justice and other needs OF
the people as convenient and ready
to them as possible. This could
be shown by many references to
the past, especially in mail matter.
The new building for the post
Office and court house is a very de-
sirable one. Cost $50, 900.
Much credit is due the energetic
aud able men who brought about
this needful work: Hon. w. NJ.
McKaig, Hon. Geo. A. Pearre and
I. S. Senator G. L. Wellington
Their services will not be forgot

Not many cases from our region
have gone to the Federal Courts.
Several insurance cases against
nonresident companies are recall
ed. Also one .ejectment case against
parties of what is now Garrett
county by a man of Somerset coun.
ty, Pa. The case was instituted
in the L. S. Circuit Court at Bal
timore, and from there carried up
to the Supreme Court, and here
decided finally in 1910. 1t was
case with incest for its founda-
ton in the most hideous form-a
man knowingly marrying his own
daughter with four or five children
as results. This case is to be
