Although the work recently under
taken by the federal government to
prevent the Rio Grande from throw
ing a big slice of United states terri
tory over to Mexico, has not yet been
completed. that river is making an
other attack at a point close to eld
Fort Brown. Several acres of land
have already been eaten away by the
current and unless work on a large
scale is undertaken in the near future
more will go. and from present indi-
cations the peninsula on which the old
fort and the national cemetery are To-
Gated will become Mexican territory
The appropriated money now avail
able is entirely inadequate to meet the
new conditions. Since the boundaries
between the two countries is fixed by
the middle of the main channel of tn.
stream, Mexico would have a perfect
right to claim the soil thus added to
its domain. and according TO present
conception of international law, back
ed Up By many precedents, little could
be done by the United States. To keep
the river permanently in It's present
bed miles of levee reinforced by 4
dense growth of willow trees are re-
commanded The constant WandertngS
of the river are discernible over its
entire lower valley and for this reason
ii has more than once been thought
advisable to fix the boundary between
the countries by some other means.

more in danger of elimination. The
local health board is not satisfied with
the decision of the board of alder
men to have them continued in husi-

of dangerous microbes. Some of the
