earlier records and surveys as a basis
the Geological Survey Is now actively
engaged in examining power-sites to
which the Government still retains
the title. Again the purpose is to
aid in the enactment of legislation
that may promote and not hinder
development of these water-powers as
rapidly as the industrial, transporta-
ton and other needs of the nation
demand. Utilization of the unde-
veloped water-powers on the public
domain involves either Government
development or long time leases OF
these power-sites to strong financial
interests, and in the latter event Gov
law must provide for effective Gov
eminent control that will insure that
the profit of the capital accomplish
ing the development cannot impose
unjust brudens upon the users of the
power. thus generated, whether the
utilization be for transportation, city
lighting, of motive power.
THE recommendations made by
the Geological Survey have already
resulted in 46 temporary Withdrawals
by the Secretary of the Interior OF
power-sites on AZ rivers in seven oil

"A map showing the distribution
of these power-sites now temporarily
withdrawn should show their relation
to the great mining districts of this
western country. The Government

ference between the closing down OF
a mine and its operation at a profit.
classification of the public lands
is highly essential to the development
in the land laws of the important
principle of relative worth. The
earliest land laws, those of a century
ago, provided for the reservation of
mineral lands from disposal for other
purposes and the present coal land
law we'll expresses the principle of
relative worth by giving gold, silver,
and copper deposits priority over the
coal, and coal in turn preference over
agricultural. values. These distinc-
lions necessitate land classification
based on adequate field examination
and with classification data at hand
the principle of relative worth can
he further developed. Wherever the
different values conflict the higher
use should prevail.
Land legislation of the future
should strengthen this principle of
relative worth where it already
exists in law and introduce it further
all new enactments. In his report
as. Commissioner of the General
Land Office two years ago, the pres
ent Secretary of the Interior express
ed this same deal in land legislation
and administration, stating that the
end to be sought is "tfat the remain
der of the public lands shall be de-
voted to their greatest beneficial use
for the States as we'll as for the Gov
eminent at large"

With Outside
Team

The efforts of the Ely High school
football team to cur games with
different school elevens throughout
the state have not been crowned
with success.
The Sparks high school will not
have a football eleven this year and
for that reason was compelled to de-
cline Ely S invitation for a game. r.
H. Mitchell, principal of the Sparks
schools, in a communication to Man
ager Carr of the local ELEVEN stated
that because of a lack of interest
among the students the Sparks school
would not be represented in football
this year.
A similar tale of woe has been re-
turned from the Elko high school, as
that institution has not included
football among its school activities
this year.
The high school boys feel conf
dent that a game can be arranged
with the Winnemucca high scoo1 and
are out practicing every evening,
with the prospect of a Thanksgiving
game here. Winnemucca has a foot
ball team, and Manager Carr expects
to receive definite word from there
in regard to a game within the next
few days.

William Muldoon, the professional
athlete and trainer, declares that col
lege athletics are all wrong n that
it is a wonder more young college
men do not succumb to the strain.
He says this strain is as bad for the
mind as It is for the heart, as 1t with
draws vitality from the brain to the
other parts of the body-that ath-
letics should be second, not first, in
a college course. This sounds sensi-
ble-so sensible that it is somewhat
odd that it is a professional athlete,
not the college professors themselves,
who is championing the superior
claims of intellect over football and
rowing teams.

of political barter and mysterious
eleventh-hour changes az the hands
Of the Committee on Ways and Means,
the now-famOus Payne bill Is I'm the
