While rivers are natural re- sources or the first rank, they are liable 10 be destructtF- agencies, endangeriag life and property. r was computed half century ago hv Generals Humphreys and Ah- bot that the Mississippi river atan- -vae9s into the lower reache= and t5s Ga.r Of Mexico 494,o0o.eoo foas of floating sediment year. twice the amount of earth to #5e exea4ated in building the Panama eaaai, besides ar enormous amount which fs carried E earth-sairs and sol! matter in solution.
 aA1s pan for utilization of in land waterways should consider floods and the control Of the rivers bv forests and any other means in dicated to be wise as well as pro- teetion of ,bottombnds from in- jury by overaows and uDlands from loss by soil-wash. '
 Following the letter of instrae- tf0ns. the commission will study the conditions along the Mississippi river especially, and report meas ures for legislation which will tend 10 prevent past destruction by floods as well a. provide for the enforcement of the ansportation system of the nation in matter to give adequate means Of carrying the products of the state along that great waterway. The members Of the commission are men of national rep4te, some of them experts in scientific subjects pertaining to wa tervays and conservation of water supplies. others possessing special knowledge Of the industrial pfoo- lens of the nation. Their findings will constitute valuable additions to the governments data and will aid materially fn solving questions now perplexing 10 the houses Of the con- gress.

Memphis. Tenn, April D. Among the many features of the po- lice and fremen spring festival and carnival is mammoth megaphone concert by a chorus of local talent that will sing all the popular songs through meeaphones accompanied by the Schilzoni Hungarian Muzzar band. The Cincinnati Inquirer, in speaking Of another feature Of the festival Fighting the Flames, says: The first performance of Fighting the Flames was at 1:30 D. n. T. was the most strenuous and active spectacle even seen in Cincinnati. The scene depicts city street, g replica of 3 dozen Of our own busy thoroughferes. The prin- cipaI scene of activity is confined to fVe-story building which was built specially for the purpose. It is solid structure. Street cars, coal wagons. laundry wagons, sHtomo- piles and every other kind Of vehicle n large city pass before the spectators. The sidewalk js crowded with the characteristic thr0nes that one can see on Sixth street on an Saturday nislr. M kinds of people and all kinds Of colors are there. Women enter stores and come out with rheir shopping bags full Of purchases. \ p3lieea an dashes aadle in7o the place and arrests the fighters il saloon FEa turns in a call and 3 minute latef. while the street is crowded 10 irs limit an explosion is heard in the paint store. and the crowds fee from the scene. Flames leap ap the walls and escape from the upper floors is cut off. An alarm of fire is turned in and moment ! later hose cart. hook and ladder truck and an engine appear. IL is the ltfe-saving expert performers getting in their fine work and hair bredth performances. The life-sav- i ing corps is composed of half 1 dozen athletic young men. With i ladders they ascend to the roof, five i stories high and life-lines are flung 1 over the edge of the roof. The oc- cupants of the building appear at l the windows in state of panic, and the crowd below calls to them ! not to jump. One of heSfiremen swings himself out by means of a rope and lands on the sill Of the tifth-storv window. He seizes woman there, and slides down the rope to the ground. One after an other follows. One life-saver de- scends head downward, with man holding to his hand. The Hfe-nets are spread and Miss Sylvia Barty, who has made 4,060 jumps in her career. leaps into the air and with twisting motion lands in the net

Former Judge Cooley Lunches
With Executive and Dis
cusses North Caro-
lima Case
CAN ONLY SEE THAT
COURT ORDERS oBEYED
Cooley Believes that tho Case
Will Reach United States
Supreme Court the
Present Year

q
Oyster Bay, Aug. 3~Forner Judge
A. W. Cooley, lunched With the
president and when he left Oyster Bay
he said the president had discussed
with him in general way the North
Carolina rate case.
"The impression seems to prevail
in some quarters said Mr.. Cooley,
that the president can do something
in this case. AS matter of fact.
the only thing tho department of
Justice can do is to see that the pro.
cess Of the federal court is served and
that the orders of the court arc obey.
cd. In this case there has been no
dicffiulty in serving the process and
no disposition to disobey tho orders of
the court. There is nothing else the
executive department Of tho govern b.
ment can do in the matter, -
While Mr.. Cooley said he was not
familiar with the details of the case j.,
1t was his opinion that it would reach
the supreme court Of the United
States during the coming fall term.

DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards, Aug. 20.
result of liberal supplies and us
prices here have been too high, COM
pared to those East, this market fol-
lowed the lead set at other points. On
Monday there was very little stuff in
the yards and prices were higher, but
Tuesdays receipts were liberal and the
result was sharp break on cows.
Steers held up pretty well until late in
the week but prices are fully quarter
lower in sympathy with eastern ie-
clines. Fair grass steers from the Rifle
district sold at $3.50 to $465, but there
was nothing choice here in the steer
line. Cow stuff is 40 to so cents low er
than week ago and dull at the de-
cline. Grass cows sold on Monday at
$4l2 1-2, but later in the week it took
good ones to land above $3.50 and bulk
of fair to good killers sold from this
down to $275. Bulls were in good de-
mand and steady. Veals closed fully q
dollar lower because Of liberal supplies
and the fact that prices here have been
higher than those at any other market.
Today's trade was little stronger,
veals selling up to $3.50. Feeder and
stocker demand good and dealers had
liberal orders for good steers they were
unable to fill rs receipts were light.
Prices however, are about a quarter
lower owing to lower markets East.
Just fair western steers sold at S4.00 to
1920 and medium kinds around 1925
10 $3.50. An eastern market closed 25
to Soc lower than week ago. Re-
ceipts here today were fair and prices
steady, though eastern market report
ed liberal runs and lower prices.
Hog receipts were about $500 head
last week. Demand was fair bat
prices lower with bulk Of the hogs now
selling aroosd e5.7o 10 $3.50. -aA
Sheep receipts were light but le-
mand was also limited last week. East
ern markets closed sharply lower and
the local market IL weak In sympathy.

ADDRESS OF
WILLIAM H, TAFT

Columbus, O., Aug. 2O.-1n his no
table speech here last night, Secre.
tary of War William H. Taft made
what he was pleased to term his "poli-
teal confession of faith' at Memorial
hall. The auditorium, which has seat,
ing capacity of over 5000, was packed
to the doors and several thousand peo-
pie who came to hear the secretary
speak were unable to gain admittancc.
The secretary spoke under the auspices
of the Buckeye Republican club, and
the address was notable from the fact
that it is regarded as the platfrom Lp
on which he will make his campaign Tor
the nomination for president.
Mr.. Taft made no formal announce
ment of his candidacy, but he was
introduced by Governor Harris as the
"next president of the United States, -
which was the signal for a prolonged
outburst of applause. Special inter.
est was manifest in Secretary Taft's
utterances on the tariff He reiterated
his previous declarations in favor uf
revision and declared that it would be
both unwise and unsafe for the Re
publican party to fail to pledge itself
to revise the Dingley bill as soon after
the presidential election as possible
Mr.. Taft also declared in favor of i'm
prisonment of individuals responsible
for violations of the antitrust law and
for giving or accepting of rebates as
more effective than fines. His defense
of President Roosevelt's IS policy invoked
enthusiastic applause.
Secretary Taft's speech has been
awaited with great interest through
out the nation, as he has declined tc
talk ON the presidential question when
interviewed heretofore, declaring tina,
he would outline his views in the Co
lumbus address.
1t was generally conceded, however
that the portly war secretary would
announce himself as strictly in favo,
of continuing the policy of President
Roosevelt, and with few exceptions he
declared tonight in favor of the Roose
veltian principles. This indicates that
President Roosevelt will support Taft
for the presidency, and is also taken to
indicate that Roosevelt intends to stick
by his declaration that he will not &C
cept third term.
