RICHES OF SOIL WONDERFUL

But the object of this story is to call s,tten-
ton orce more, ard for perhaps the thou
san dth time, to the riches of the soil along
the Colorado Oh both sides, incident to the
depositidg or this mass of debris during all
the past ages. Going through the country
on Tie Arizona side of the river, for several
miles below Yuma, one encounters the same
tyre Of country and soil that is found in the
Imperial Valley country around BrawIey,
Caexico and other points west of the river
The fertility of the black prairie soils of Iili-
nois has astOnished people engaged In agri"
culture for nearly one hundred years. The
fertility of the valleys Of the Nile has betn 3
matter of history for at least G0G0 years. Those
who are familinr with Illinois prairie soil,
and those who know what the valley of the
Nile is for agriculture. know that this lower
Colorado River region surpasses both of them.
If you ask farmer along this stretch OF
country if the soil is six feet, IFS eyes will
open with establishment si your ignorance.
tie viii tell you no one knows whether it is
s. feet, sc or 5000 feet deep. 1t Is practically
without bottom. 1t is SO thoroughly wei:
mixed wi,h sand, dieintegrated granite and
! ether rocks that l. never breaks. 1t is As
easily worked as Il heap of ashes, and re-
spends to cultivation in way that is mar
! vel0us.

ONCE A MIGHTY STREAM.

Ages ago when the mountain ranges OF
Arizona and California lowered toward the
stars, at least twice rs high as they do now,
rains were very fred cert and Came down in
t9rrcntial volumes All aIoag these mountain
,Iges The Colorado River in these past ages
was a mighty stream, sweeping down debris
in tons every second OF its flow. The Coiora-
do sink was at that time great inland sea,
WHICH spread over the country on both sides
OF where the river now runs AS the erosion
OF winds and storms, landsiides and glaciers
wore down the mountain ridges year b. year.
the great river carried down vast amount
Ct silt, erosion from the rocks full of phos.
pilates, Times and iIsinteTs rated GRANTEES, as
ven as the vegetation along It's banks; and
this Was 81 deposited in what are Tow the
sinks Of the Colorado.
AS the mountain tops were worn down, the
rains became less frequent and less in volume
out tine erosion OF rocks and river banks, the
trees and vegetable mould torn from, the
banks still came Gown and settled into the
bottom OF the grea. inland lake. This ge0gical
process went on from age 30 age - oar time,
leaving the Colorado at Yuma stream about
half {; rlile wide and being at The present
lime about twenty feet deep ia the deepest
portion.
1t is not necessary to remind CalifOrniaps
| thai the Spanish missionaries and explorers
called this river the Colorado because Of the
reddish color Of its waters. Is is the Colorado
up in the Grand Canyon in Arizona and
down past The Needles. But a. this time of
the year, after passing the mouth Of the ella,
instead of the red river it becomes the brown
river II actually looks today as if ten per
cent of its Cow was silt and only ninety per
cent water.

PINCHOT DISCUSSES
 REPUBLICAN HOPES

Akron o. March 6--Aiore than 500 re- publicans, mostly progressives in attend ance at the Lincoln banquet here tonight heard Clifford Pinchot, seconded by Jas. R. Garfield. of Cleveland and A. l.. Gar ford of Elyria, Ohio, declare in their speeches for independence of party rather than regularity in order to become free of corporate control of the nations re- sources and of the republican party.
 'Whatever is right ana vital in the re- MT. Pinchot in his address.
 Whatever is not progressive is dying or dead The republican party cannot live half dead and half alive. It cannot con tinue half reactionary and half progress sive. We shall live if we free ourselves from the gangreen of blind devotion to things that have gone by
 Mr. Pinchot asserted that the republican party cannot afford to risk it's chance of victory in 1912 merely on the hope of democratic blundefs.
 <"Time was when that was reasonably safe he said. Today it is a depend ence distinctly less reliable than in the past. Also we need a larger issue. In 19l2' the nominee himself will be moro than half the platform. He must have certain indispensable qualifications. He must be progressive and stand for popu- lar government"

SCOUTS REPORT
 ARMY'S APPROACH

Mexicali, Mex, March 6.-Five rebel scouts, one of whom apparently had been wounded, rode back into this insurrecto stronghold tonight with information that body of federals had entered the val ley and, probably would attack the town tomorrow.
 The report of the scouts caused Gen. eral Leyva, commanding the insurrecio forces to order all non-combatants out of MeXicali. Women and merchants of the town, most of whom are Ameri- cans immediately crossed the boundary to Calexico
 The information of the scouts was sup plemented by reports from ranches that a large force of federa1s had crossed the Cocopah mountains and was march, ing in the direction of Mexical
 One body of insurrectos was sent south east two days ago to protect the engi- neering work now being done along the Colorado river in Mexico. The workmen were being threatened by a band of out. laws who had raded their commssary At the approach of the insurrectos the bandits disappeared.
 The insurrectos impressed a train on the Inter-Caifornia railway to take them to and from the site Of the American government works. This gave rise to the erroneous report that the insurrectos themselves were threatening the project.

New York. March 6.AA vote will be taken tomorrow night on the ques tion of the strike of 5O.00O teamsters in New York in sympathy with the gro cery wagon drivers, who recently struck in demand for uniform hours.
 The strike vote will follow a last attempt by the grocery drivers tomor- row to press their case to a. settle ment with their employers. They will announce the result of the conference with the employers at a general meet ing and. should it be unfavorable the leaders say they will tie up all the trucking business in the city, including the ongshoremen by a general strike.
 Leaders of the drivers said tonight that almost every teamster in the city was ready to go out if necessary.
 An incident showing the acute situ- ation developed tonight when Edward Stokes, an ambulance driver at the Hudson Street hospital, was discharged for opposing the gorcery drivers.
 The two remaining drivers demanded his reinstatement within an hour and when it was refused they quit. An other hospital sent another man to drive the ambulance but he refused to do so when he learned the situation.
 Leaders of the teamsters said to- night that if a general strike is called 1t will be one of tho worst tie-u ups New York city has ever experienced, and it will be fought to the bitter end.
