WOODED RIVERS.
Proje Advanced of Setting Cotton woods and Willows Along Val
 Ieys Waterways.

There has been much talk recently of planting eucalyptus trees on the shores of Salton sea, and as the water recedes continue planting. By this process it is supposed that upon the complete evaporation of the water the sink will be one vast forest. It sounds feasible, but the close proximity of the Colorado river, the various canals leading from the mighty stream to- ward the sink and the waste water attendant upon agricultural pursuits in this valley seem to preclude the even- tual entire evaporation of the sea. However, it's shores could be made verdant by the eucalyptus or cotton wood, and in a few short years they would furnish shades for picnic and boating parties, and, mayhap, for some curious scientist, anthropologist, ar cheaologist or some other genius.
 In line with this talk it would seem not out of place to suggest that right here midst these fertile fields we have an opportunity for tree planting that should not be overlooked. With very little expense the banks of the New and Alamo rivers could be made em- erald ribbons reaching from Mexico POANO promiscously along the banks and small deltas of the two rivers would soon grow into grateful shades The cottonwood will do the rest if stuck in to the ground where there is some moisture. A bare pole will furnish it's own root and in few years grow in to a big green tree.
 The first thing done by the settlers in the Salt River Valley in Arizona was to stick cottonwood poles along their irrigating ditches and around their fields. When their children grew larges enough to get beyond hail ing distance these same poles fur nished many a shady retreat and a nesting place for many gladsome bird.
 Plant trees. That will solve prob lem in years to come.-Calexico Chronicle.

Because yon have contracted prdl-
nary colds and recovered from them
without treatment Of any kind. DO
not for moment imagine that colds
are not dangerous. Everyone kncws
that pneumonia and chronic cataTrh
have their origin in common cold.
Consumption Is not caused BY q cold
but the cold prepares the system for
the reception and development Of the
germs that would not otherwise have
found Judgment. lis the same with
all infectious diseases. Diphtheria,
scarlet fever, measles and whooping
cough are much more likely to be
contracted when the child has a cold.
you will see from this that more real
danger turks in a cold than In any
other Of the common ailments. The
easiest and quickest way to cure q
cold is to take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. The many remarkable
cures effected by this preparation
have made 1t staple aaticle Of trade
over a large part Of the world, For
sale by oil druggists.

ENEMY OF TARIFF.
Labor World Sees Danger in Bryan
Plan Of Tariff for Revenue Only.
lFrom the Labor WORLDLY

Workingmen and producers generally
should not delude themselves with tne
belief that, If Mr.. Bryan shall be elect
ed President, his plans for revision OF
the tariff will present no menace to the
country. Mr.. Bryan is the progressed
enemy Of the tariff system. He would
impose duties, If at all, for revenue
purposes only. On articles competing
with what he chooses to call trust-made
goods he would have no duty, at all
Any apparent deficit in import duties
arising from revised schedules he esti-
mates would be more than made up by
increased imports OF course, his nope
is to strike at the great protection
States, which happen to be Republican
in politics, like Pennsylvania, New
York, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, West Wiz
ginia, etc. 1t does not seem to matter
10 him that every dollars worth OF for
eign goods in the competitive class COM
ing into the United States on revenue
or free trade basis necessarily BY 80
much reduces the demand for home
goods, thus displacing just that much
American labor. What he wants to DO
Is to rebuke and avenge himself upon
protected manufacturers who 40 not
agree woth him In politics and VINO VIII
have none Of him at the polls, says an
exchange. sN'N
But While Mr.. Bryan is gunning' for
protected Industries and Republican
states, once his proposed tariff law
should be in force 1t would fall alike
upon all sections of the country, tine
pnly differences between one State and
another being in the degree Of hardship
imposed.
We hear Of workingmen saying that
this time they intend to vote for Mr.,
Bryan, because for the past ten months
We have had hard times. But what
good will that dot How is a tariff for
revenue, ignoring the protection idea
altogether, going to open the shops and
mills? How will the election of Sena-
tors BY direct vote start the wheels Of
Industry Or the publication of cam
paign contributions? Or the further
harassment of the railroads. Or the
reorganization of the House, so that
the Speaker may be pOwerlessI Why
open this country now to the markets
Of the world when We have not sufi-
Gent demand to consume what we our
selves manufacture? Under Republi-
can rule we have just had ten years OF
unparalleled prosperity. Under Dem
ocratic administrations we have never
had prosperity for any period, long or
short.

Prof. Perrill Explains Why It Il
Arranged as Now. q

EDITOR REFLEoTOR: A recent 10
sued Of the REFLECTOR contained an
article from a student Of the State
University complaining that gradu-
ates Of the county high school are
conditioned on their entrance to that
institution.
On the face OF the matter he is
right. Practically he is wrong, as
students from this school graduate
from the University in exactly the
same time as from the other schools
mentioned. Our students there rank
among the best. In the column Of
the REFLECTOR, next to that contain
ing the complaint, is the account Of
the winning Of a Yale scholarship by
Dickinson county boy. He gradu-
ated from the county high school.
So did Holman, who this year won q
scholarship at K. U. So did Robin
son who won an assistant professor
ship there. We have students In
Baker, Washburn, West Point, An
napolis and elsewhere and there has
never been failure or even a medi-
OGRE among them.
The students who enter the county
high school need different treatment
from those entering the city high
school from the grades. Most OF
them need thorough review and
drill in the common branches to
supply training that it was impossi'
BILE to get in the crowded country
schools. They also average older and
are able to do harder work. For
these reasons the county high school
gives its first year to thorough drill
in the common branches and gives
the following three years to high
school work proper, dividing the year
into three terms instead Of the usual
two. We think that this plan turns
out stronger students in the end,
than to give the four years to exclu-
sive high school work. In this par
ticular the success Of our students
speaks for itself.
In college work, teachers examine
lions and elsewhere they have no
trouble in holding their own with
others. j. P. PERRTLL, Principal.
