A CURIOUS LAKE.
e Makes -Four Distinct Changes In
Color Every Year.

u wakes -Four Distinct Changes IN
Color Every Year.
In Monterey county, CAL, at Sea-
side, there is a lake which changes
its color four times each year. APP
parently there is no outlet for the
lake, although it is never stagnant.
1t is full of waterfowl and fish, and
when it's color is normal it is sweet
to the taste.
The color changes are very pro-
nounced and are in four distinct
shades-yellow, green, red and dark
gray that has the appearance of
black at times. After each change
the water regains its normal clear
appearance. The color is in the wa
ter and is not the result of rehec-
ton from the sky. This has been
proved beyond doubt by the fact
that the color remains the same for
days at time, regardless of the con-
dition of the clouds.
The four colors mentioned are
the ones always seen, and they al
ways occur in the order named, the
disturbance, if such it may be called,
covering a period of from six weeks
to two months in July and August
Of each year. Old residents of Sea-
side assert that the phenomenon is
q regular annual event and that it
is always followed by the death of a
large number of fish in the lake.
No explanation Of the peculiar
condition has ever been attempted
by scientists, although several scien-
tifc men of note have studied the
lake very carefully. The prevailing
opinion among the inhabitants of
the section surrounding the lake is
that the lake is of volcanic origin
and that the changes are due to
subterranean disturbances, which
produce chemical changes in the
water of the lake.
This idea is supposed to have
grown out of the belief that the
lake is bottomless. Years ago,
when the Southern Pacific railroad
was being built across one end of
the lake, the roadbed sank almost
O. fast as it was laid, and thousands
Of tons of gravel and stone were
dumped into the lake before a sta
bic foundation could be obtained.
This led to the belief that the lake
is bottomless. The lake is not more
than three-quarters of a mile long
by less than half a mile wide.-Los
Angeles Times.

In this respect they violated
the laws and the opinion Of the

News fails to say anything about
the part it's editor took in the
creation of a new precinct which
would have been a continuous
expense to the taxpayers of the
county. He fails to say anything
about a certain county officer
who draws a salary of 5000 a
year while out of this state and
rendering no service. Oh no,
the News would not mention
these facts.

For several weeks the Grant
County News has charged the
slalwart republicans of this
county with being responsible
for the cost of the March pri
maries. What it's object is we
do rot know. The facts are that
the primary law passed at the
last insurgent legislature was to
b'ame for the expense, and no
one else. The only part that the
stalwart party took was to pre-.
vent the com mission of an illegal
act by the insurgent committee
men present at the committee
meeting. The insurgents
sought to take advantage of a
provision of the primary law
which provided that when two
thirds of tue committeeman of
the several political parties, If
there was not sufficient contest
to warrant the holding OF q pri.
mary, the committee might elect
the delegates. The supreme
court of this state has decided
that this provision of law is IN.
constitutional. Therefore the
only way that delegates can be
elected is by q vote Of the people,
and whatever the expense may
be it is chargeable to the law and
not to any individual or set of in
dividuals.
The part played by the insur'
gent leaders Of this county in
che matter savored very strong.
" of q bold attempt to illegally
elect delegates to the state con.
vention and the fact that they of
fered to divide the state dele
gates with the stalwarts does in
noway acquit them of attempt
ing to conduct an illegal act for
their own personal benefit.
Attorney General Clark under
date of January 81, 1908, upon
inquiry of D. D. Hopf, secre.
tary of state, said, in part: "The
precinct secretary and chairman
are members of the county cen.
trail committee under Sec. 81 of
the 1905 laws. This county Gen.

rent local questions consistent With his

always been an open advocate OF the
license side Of the question AID IN the

fused to trade off his convictions for
spite work, as did the leaders OF the
Insurgent faction headed by l. II.
Bentley, and align himself with the
prohibltionists simply to help spite
and defeat the Stalwart leaders
who we're identified with the license
side of the question. The fact is. Mr..
Merry is too good a man to longer be
mixed up with the Insurgent wing OF

way clear 10 go over to the other
wing he might make a very good COM
promise by coming over to the Demo-

The Herald. A wants to
take exceptions to the above at
tempt to mix-up the recent mum
icipal fight, which was entirely a
question of license VS.. no.license
with the matter of state politics.
The question was an entirely
separate issue, with the stall
warts and insurgents lined up
on both sides without regard to
their preferences on state ques.
lions and state candidates, and
we believe that sensible men
pretty generally voted their con-
victions on the question before
them regardless of their afilia-
ton with either faction. Ger
tain it is that everyone Of the
no.license candidates we're stall
wart republicans, and the at
tempt of Mr.. Bentley on the part
of the insurgents and MI. Volk-
mar on the part of the license
vocates, to ring in the faction
al issue is q small piece of bust
ness. The Herald Advance be.
and stands for the princi.
pal that these questions of local
should be decided on
their own merits. 1t has con.
supported the no.li-
cense cause. but it strenuously
objects to any attempt to identity
that cause with the little band of
tricksters who compose
the insurgent leaders in this
