not contemplate the new sections OF

In some of these regions the increase

The rains OF the past week have done
damage, and In some of the lowlands

Good and Bad in

DALLAS, Tex, Aug. 1.-The cotton
crop is growing we'll and shows heavy
farming In all parts Of Texas. In the
south and southwestern sections II is
about matured, and picking Is well UNI
der way In some sections.
Tibet STAPLE is unusually good, and
the yield at this time is above the
WELD OF average years. In central
and southern Texas rain Is becoming
important. but the absence of wind has
prevented any damage to cotton plants
or bolls up to this time. Rain within
the next 10 days will dispel any fears
of the hot month OF August, which is
usually a period of great deteriora!
ton. Should hot winds be averted In
August, the cotton crop will be the
largest ever heard Of In Texas.

SCENIC WONDER IS

Typical Story Of Ballinger Brand Of

SEATTLE, Aug. 1.-Snoqualmie

one OF the scenic wonders of the new
world, disappeared few days ago.
All that remains to bespeak the
beautiful cataract that was once the
pride OF all this section is a bare
cliff, dry as a boneand an electric
current developing $4,000 horsepower
The profit accruing from the sale
OF this power goes TO the Seattle

free to divert a whole river to its
turbines and rob the state and the
nation OF great scenic feature be.

qualmie falls by fling HIS claim with
the government.
Thus the people, In whom the right
to a common control of their rivers
Justly aides, are robbed not only OF
their waterfall, but also Of the wealth
into which the beauty of that falls is
being transmitted.
the most beautiful In America. 1t Is
over a hundred feet higher than Mia
CARA. Indeed, 1t Is one of the high
est big falls on the continent. When
the river was flush flood Of noun
tain water 1876 feet wide was wont to
pour over the brink of the cataract
sheer down to the steaming pool be
low. II has long been an object OF
great local pride. The natives loved
their falls. They look with sullen
hatred upon the power plants that
have sprung up about the falls to
coin its beauty into dollars.
About ten years ago a $4,000 horse
power plant was established at the
Snoqualmie, operating under the
Baker water rights grant. Presently
the plant, then owned by the Sno'
qualmie Light q Power Co., was en-
larged to 10000 horsepower, and
later to $4,000. This concern got
possession of the land on both sides
of the river, above and below the
falls.
Now comes the Seattle Tacoma
Power Co., taking over the old com
pany and the right TO wipe Snoqual.
ME falls on the map.
That right has finally been exer-
cised. A great concrete dam has been
built clear across the river on the
brink of the cliff, diverting every drop
of water into the shafts and tunnels
that lead to the turbines that drive
the Seattle-Tacoma company's dyna'
mos.
This dam was completed few days
ago. Now, for the first time since 1t
first began it's plunging career, the
thunder of Snooualmie Ia hushed. It's
waters dwindled to a slender stream,
the mere ghost OF falls; then to a
mere trickle that was dissipated In
mist before IL reached the pool below
then disappeared altogether.
Thus the people OF Washington lose
their acknowledgements a dozen years
ago 1t permitted one man, by the
name of Baker. to acquire the sole
right to ruin Snoqualmie falls.
