Washington. D. c.. Feb. 22.-Snob-
bishness and an esthetic temperament
can be exploited to increase the rev.
enues of the postoffice department, if
the plan suggested by man in Silver
City, N. NJ. TO the postoffice depart
ment is carried out. Persons with the
above mentioned temperament, thinks
the Silver City man, would gladly buy
more and pay more for more artistical-
~ formed stamps, or colored stamps OF
delicate shades and classic portraits
and scenes. The letter follows:
THE suggestion which 1 am about to
make may be as impractical as it is
undemocratic, but it has occurred to
me many times as a possible aid in
solving the problem Of reducing the
persistent shortage in the postal de-
partment.
There are in this country many
thousands of persons with enough
snobbishness in their makeup to make
them willing to pay for anything which

BIG DAM IS READY
FOR COL. ROOSEVELT
Believed Now the Project
VIII Be Good Dividend
Payer.

Washington, D c., Feb. 22-Informa-
ton has reached Washington that the
last stone in the parapet of the Roose-
welt dam in the Salt river valley. Ari-
iona, has been laid and that the pro-
gram is now being mapped out for the
formal opening about March 1 when
ex-president Roosevelt will be present
This dam is 2S4 feet high, 1880 feet
long on top and wide enough along
the top for 20 foot roadway The
base in the canyon covers an acre of
ground. 1t will form a lake % miles
long and over 200 feet deep over most
of the ground covered 1t has a ca
pacity Of So 900, 600, 900 cubic feet, or
enough water to cover the state of
Delaware one foot deep.
1t is planned to irrigate 200 900 acres
from this dam of which $4,000 acres
will be irrigated by pumping
The dam inundated what in the early
days of Arizona when known as the
Tonic basin was famous rendezvous
for outlaws and indians on account of
its inaccessibility.
The city of Phoenix is now lighted
by power generated at one of the small
drops in one of the main canals, and
the government is even now advertis-
ing for turbine water wheels for the
big power plant at the dam. This pro-
ject is expected to furnish one of the
best examples of the benefit Of the de-
velopment of water power. While it is
too early to give any definite results.
yet it is estimated by the reclama ton
service engineers that the retailing Of
the power generated by this dam will
produce a revenue which will pay
percent on the entire cost of construct
ing the project. In other words this
means that after the farmers in the
valley pay back to the reclamation SER
vice the ten annual payments repre-
senting the cost of the dam, they will
have 4 project which will pay per-
cent on that cost, and which will not
only cover all the cost of maintenance
but be dividend producer in addition.
