Maxine Salt Lake Fresh.

A remarkable engineering feat is be-
ing considered in Utah, the aim being
to convert a portion Of Salt lake into
a body of fresh water: This is an an
cient dream long deemed impossible
Of fulfilment, but the present plan
gives promise of proving successful.
If it is, then will be witnessed a trans
formation as complete as has ever
been seen upon the wastes of, the
west, where irrigation has converted
barren deserts into fruitful gardens.
The plan of the engineers is to build
a dam across the eastern extremity
of the lake where the principal streams
that feed the body flow In. This dam
is to be several feet higher than the
present water level and the design is
to divide the lake into two parts. The
theory is that the water will flow into
the first lake, rise to a level with the
dam, and then tumble into the other
section. The water In the first division
will retain it's freshness, while that
in the lower lake will continue to be
briny as at present. If the plan proves
successful it is believed that the terri
tory adjacent to the lake can be made
highly attractive, giving it infinite pos.
sibilities as a summer resort.

Unique Old French Village.

Lying so much off the beaten track,
the village of Port Lesne in the Jura
department Of France is visited by
but few from the outside world, and
consequently this tiny community Of
men and women of color is but little
known. It Is not large village, for
It's Inhabitants number but little more
than a hundred, but every one is
either black, or of copper color or
palish yellow. It owes it's origin to
the fact that about a century ago the
famous negro chief, Toussaint-L Ouv-
erture, was brought from Hayti and
In Fort de Joux. Many
Of his friends, all negroes, followed
him and encamped near his prison
on the bank of the little river Loue.
From that encampment grew the VII
lage of Port Lesne, and when Tous-
saint-L' Ouverture died more than q
hundred years ago his friends decided
to remain in France. The passing of
years and intermarriages have trans
formed the settlement into a French
village of colored folk, all of whom
have the vote. Port Lesne is thus
probably the most unique spot in all
France.

jim CROW TOPICS.

A Southern journal gives the fol-
lowing sensible advice to it's readers:
when some politician, who has not
a thought except to get an Office and
a salary for himself, mounts the stump
and assails the trusts and plutocrats,
some farmer would do we'll to arise in
the audience and say something like
this:
"'In order to hear you speak today
I jolted for five miles over a road
full of boulders and gullies, putting
hard work on my team, much wear
and tear on my wagon and inf1icting
great discomfort on myself Instead
of spending your time on the trusts
and millionaires, tell us how we are
to get road from this town to our
farms'"
All Of which is admirable as far as
it goes, but it does not go quite far
enough; for when the Southern spell
binder winds up with the trusts and
r!utocrats, he generally tapers Off on
the Afro-American and advocates the
invention of few more Jim crow
laws. If the journal quoted can per-
suade it's itinerant statesmen to de-
vote one-tenth of the time they give
to Jim crow topics to the establish
ing of decent roads in the South it
will do great good to all the people
of that section and to the sojourners
therein.

hands of two or three Democratic
partisans. 1t is true that the laws,
in some instances, provide that the

THE CLERK ARE SELECTED BY

invariably refuse to allow the Repub-
