WATER
SUPPLY is NOT FAILING

dent of public works Mr.. Tenney
does not think that the artesian wa
ter supply is in danger, from over
pumping or otherwise; and has facts
and figures to support his position.
All needed to restore the artesian
water supply to its normal basis is a
good winter rain, which is now over
due and will doubtless arrive within
the next few months.
Referring to the matter, Mr.. Tenney
gave out the following statement;
ut will be four years this winter
since we have had a good soaking
rain. If we get a thorough soaking or
steady rain of thirty 20 forty days this
winter the artesian water level will
be brought up to it's normal height.
"The normal level of the water in
the wells at Eva plantation above sea
level, when the first wells were drill
ed in May 1890, was 81 feet, inches.
The height OF the water in these
same wells today when the pumps
are not running is % feet IA inches.
This is about the same height that
the water stood in the wells under
similar conditions in January, 1904.
During the months of February and
March, 1904, there was very heavy
rainfall and more or less rain fell
every day for period of forty odd
days, the total rainfall for the two
months being 81. So inches. At the
close of this rainy period, accurate
measurements were taken of the level
of the water in the artesian wells and
it was found to stand 81 feet Z ~
inches above sea level, or 1 ~ inches
higher than it stood in the first well
drilled in May, 1890.
my opinion is that If we could have
an old-fashioned, wet winter, the level
of the water in the artesian wells Of
the Eva basin would speedily come
up to normal"

DILLINGHAM; IS
PROUD OF RAILWAY

The San Diego Zeal Union of July
"a contained the following:
B. F. Dillingham;, who is president
and general manager of the Oahu
Railway and Land Company, which
owns and operates all the steam rail
roads in the Hawaiian Islands, except
ten miles, is visiting the United States
on his way to Europe.
Mr.. Dillingham; has lived in Homo
lulu since 1865. He was born in
Massachusetts. At the age of Is he
shipped in a vessel that took him as
far as San Francisco. He followed a
seafaring life for five years more, sail
ing between San Francisco and Homo
lulu in the American bark Whistler,
finally becoming first officer. Then he
went ashore in Honolulu one day, got
a job as clerk and settled down to
grow up with the country.
Mr.. Dillingham; is very proud of the
railroad which he is responsible for
building. He had got twenty miles
if it finished and had come to New
York and raised $2,OOO,0OO to build
more when the revolution of 1898
broke out. He had to wait few years
before laying any more track.
"Now," said Dillingham;, I'VE have
100 miles of road; all in good condi-
ton. We paid per cent a year until
1897, and for twelve years we have
p paid 9 per cent year. We have used
oil for five or six years, and with it
have cut our cost of operation almost
in half. Our passenger receipts
last year were about $180,000. We
have a thiry-seven mile standard
gauge road on the island of Hawaii
which eventually will be 100 miles
long. We have had thirteen steel
bridges made in New York. Their
average length is 730 feet. One is
1000 feet long and 21O feet high.
Morally the Unitd States ought to
do something for Queen Liliuokalani.
She ought to get $250OOO outright or
at least the income of it. The legis-
lature of Hawaii votes her $4,000
every two years and that is all she
gets. Hawaii has paid back the 49,.
100000 of Indebtedness assumed by
the United States in 1898 and $4,000
900 and more.
"The labor question is getting to be
serious. Both Chinese and Japanese
have been decreasing in number
since the exclusion act was passed.
We have about $500 Russian Siber.
ians there, who would be satisfied
were it not for their agitators There
were about 500 of them encamped in
one place refusing to go to work, their
agitators having given them the idea
that they had been lured to the isl
ands under false pretenses and that
they could collect $1,000 apiece AMI
transportation back to Russia if they
stuck together. The Russian govern.
ment sent two agents out to investi-
gate and these reported that the men
had no ground for complaint.
There is plenty nf work in Ha
waii and there is good pay. The Por
tuguese who have gone there from
the Azores have as a rule, after saw
ing for three or four years, accumulat
ed enough to go into business on their
own account"

Produces Copper at Less Than Five
Cents

There has been a great deal of com
ment over the fact that the Nevada
Consolidated Company of Ely has been
producing its copper for less than I
cents pound, and it has been termed
the lowest cost producer in the world.
While this cost is one over which Off
Gals have reason 10 rejoice, according
to the statistics recently issued by
Thompson, Towle & Co., Boston, New
York, it is not the lowest cost by any
means, the honor being due to the
United States Smelling, Refining and
Mining Company, whose cost of copper
production is given as 4 l-2 cents per
pound.
This extremely low cost is being
achieved in the Kennel (Cal.) copper
works of the United States Company,
and the secret of it is the gold and
silver values in the ore. Gold and sill
yer compose what is called the velvet
for the copper producers, and, as this
item has been taken into consideration
all along in reaching the basis of cal
culation, it is as fair in this special in
stance as it has ever been.-Salt Lake
Tribune.

As to whether Miss Yaw will be able

so if possible, as she has a number of

but several simple ballads for whose
