ence will drift into the canal in great volumes during the violent winds to which this region is subject"
 Method Number Six.
 The present system as It is with the river restored to it's proper level and the intake channel maintained in good working order.
 Comments on this system are made more for the purpose of showing what may be expected from the present canal for the immediate future, as the government is at this time making the necessary surveys to determine just what action to recommend and carry Out towards the permanent con trol of the Colorado river It would also take some years to place the val ley under any other system of main canals, and therefore it seems to me to be in line with questions, which are being asked throughout the valley to give these views.
 ''The river at this time is lower than at any corresponding time for seven years, that is the discharge is less in volume and we may reasonably expect the winter stage of the river to be somewhat lower than at cor responding periods in previous years
 Tn addition to the discharge being less than in former years, the bottom of the river is lower, due to some of the recession of grade having reached the river opposite the intake. When the contemplated work by the govern ment is carried out, the general level of the river should raise and it should be much easier to get water from the river than it is at the present.
 At the last meeting in EI Centro, MT. w. H. Holabird, the receiver for the c. D. Company. stated that if was the intention to maintain a dredger at the heading in order to keep the intake free from silt
 With these two improvements to the present system I do not believe there should be grounds for apprehen- sion regarding the supply for the i'm mediate future, and it is my earnest that there be no haste in deciding what one of the methods for permanent relief be adopted.
 Before deciding to go to the La guna dam, it would be wise to watch the operation of the system now being completed for the Yuma Project.
 Before deciding to make new and permanent connection with the Colo rado river below the dam, I believe the best policy would be to carefully watch and determine just the effect of the works contemplated by the government
 'The c. D. Company has most ex- cellent data concerning former con ditions at the river, and comparison with sections, 10 be taken after the new works have been .ip operation for year or more, will determine what effect these works have on the levels of the river at corresppnding stages of the river"

REPORT ON CANAL PROJECTS
Continued from page 1)

to it's own channel by the work which is now under way by the government, and I believe that system of gates could be so designed that the water would be taken out of the river over the tops of the gates instead of under them and in this way the heavier sands of the river could be passed on down the river and not taken into the canal This is feature of the Laguna dam, but l believe that it would be very easy to accomplish the same result at the new proposed heading
 The cost of this system from the river to the International line east of Calexico would be about S1,5O0, ,000. If the future organization of the com panies contemplates watering the lands in Mexico then this canal would serve tho purpose.
 Outside of the International ques- tion of operating a canal fn both coun- tries, there is no comparison between the tunnel route and the Redwood survey, both as to first cost and main tenance charges The tunnel route would cost ten or more times the route through Mexico and would all ways be subject to the heavy expense of Onprotinp a canal through sandy waste, which we know from experi- ence will drift into the canal in great volumes during the violent winds to which this region is subject"

WATTERsoN 7OYEARsOLO
Veteran Editor of the Louisville Cou
rier-Journal the Recipient of
Many Congratulations.
(Herald Specially

Louisville, KY, Feb. 16.-Henry
Watterson, the veteran editor of the
Courier-Journal and often referred to
as the foremost journalist of the
south, celebrated the SEVENTEEN ami
yersary of his birth today and was
the recipient of many congratulations.
Family bereavements and failing eye
sight have combined to cause the vet
eran editor to relinquish active work
almost wholly during the past year,
but his interest in public affairs is as
active and his pen as ready, when he
chooses to use it, as in the stirring
days of his youth when he was editor
of the saucy Chattanooga Rebel"
Mr. Watterson was born in the
storm-center of national politics, at
Washington, February 16, 1910. In
consequence of defective eyesight,
which has always troubled him, he
was sent but little to the public
schools, but received much careful
education at home. AT the commence
ment of the war he enlisted in the
Confederate army and became chief
of scouts for Gen. Joseph E. Johns
ton. AT the end of the war he made
his way practically penniless to Louis
vile, where a few years later he join
ed w. D. Haldeman in the newspaper
enterprise which made fame and for
tune for both of them.
Mr.. Watterson became active in
politics in 1872, and between that time
and 1892 no democratic platform was
written without his aid and counsel.
He presided over the convention that

COLLEGE CELEBRATES
Interesting Program of Exercises Car
ried Out at Whitman College,
WaIIa WaIla, Wash, Today.
(Herald Special.y

Walla Walla, Wash, Feb. 16.-An
interesting program of exercises was
carried out at Whitman College today
in celebration of the semi-centennial
of the college and the centennial an
niversary of the birth of its founder,
Gushing Eells The jubilee was made
the occasion for large gathering OF
former students from all sections OF
the northwest, together with public
officials, visiting educators, church
men and other friends of the institu-
ton. Addresses were delivered by a
number of prominent speakers, who
highly praised the work of the col
( lege in the past and present, and pre-
dicted bright future for it.
Cushing Eells, who founded the col
lege in memory of DR.. Marcus Whit
man, whose disciple he was, was
born one hundred years ago today in
the town of Blandford, Mass. He was
Z ordained a Congregational minister
( in 1897, and soon afterward he and
his wife offered themselves as mis-
sionaries to the American Board of
Commissioners of Foreign Missions
and were appointed to Oregon. They
arrived in Walla Walla in August,
1888, having made most of the jour
ney. from Missouri on horseback. For
Aten years they served among the Spo-
kane Indians. Then they removed to
the Willamette valley, where DR..
Eells laid the foundation for Will
lamette University at Salem. He was
also the first teacher in what was
afterward Pacific University at Forest
Grove, Oregon, and taught school in
other places until 1860, when he re-
turned to Walla Walla and founded
Whitman College. He gave to the
college $4,000 of his own money and
spent year in the east working in
its behalf. In 1883 he retired from
active work and went to reside in
Tacoma, where his death occurred on
his eighty-fourth birthday, Feb. 16,
1898.
Whitman College prospered from
the start and its development was
greatly aided by liberal benefactions
from Dr. d. K. Pearsons and others.
The institution occupies more than a
dozen buildings and a campus of
thirty acres located in the heart of
the city The standards maintained
are high, the Carnegie Foundation
ranking the college with sixteen en-
trance requirements, the same as Har-
ward and other large eastern univer-
stiles. At present the college has up
ward Of five hund students d.
vided among the college of libertl
arts, the school of music and the pre-
paratory department The number of
students continues to increase each
year, Notwithstanding the fact that
the tuition fees are the highest
charged at any college or university
west of the Rocky mountains.
