The Pumping Station.
One other feature of the project is
the Newell power tunnel driven
through a mountain of solid rock that
pushes itself out into the Flathead
river few miles below Poison. This
tunnel is 100 feet long, its inside di-
mensions being 11x1o feet The power
which 1t will generate. and which may
be made almost unlimited, will be ap-
piled to big pumping station to be
used in filling the Pablo reservoir IN
case the supply, on account of an ex-
ira dry season or any other reason 1s
cut off. If plans do not miscarry the
last blast to complete this tunnel will
have been fired on January I, 1912,
just two years and one month after
the work was started.
T Several Divisions.
[ The flathead project is divided into
several divisions, each haing some dis
tinct characteristic as applied to the
nature of the work. Beginning at the
southern end of the reservation the
Jocko division comes first, now having
rs miles Of completed canals. This dt-
vision is 10 per cent complete. The
! Mission division, adjacent to st. Igna-
titus, has Is miles of completed canals,
the Post division S8, Pablo 46 and Pol
son five. On the Jocko division 70
miles of canal work stands out to
mark the seasons triumph. most of It
being team and scraper work. The work
has also advanced very fast on the

Interest in Football

There is little doubt but that the foot ball season just closed was one in which there was a notable decrease in the amount of interest which previously had been bestowed on the national sport of the colleges" stated an old player yes- terday afternoon.
 'fI believe that the decrease in interest was caused by the fact that it is too often impossible for one team to gain 10 yards in three trials or downs, which impossibility is invariably followed by kicking.
 There is no question but that the Spec- tators are not interested in an exhibition of mailing the ball by the shoe toe The rreponderance of kicking which has been the characteristic Of the average game of 1911 has caused many yawns on the part of spectators. Kicking should be em- ' ployed in emergencies and not as an ordinary method of making gains. The remedy lies in the reduction of the gain which must be netted in three downs. If the old distance Of five yards is not put again in vogue. then seven should Dc substituted II has been demonstrated that 10 yards Is too great q distance 10 be passed over in three dcwns.'

nRYAN oN UNDERWOOD
NIT. CruiIxshnniS Sets Matters straight
 Interesting Facts

From the New York Times.
 In one of MT. Bryan's attacks on un- derw ood he used the expression, 'fhe Steel trust is strong enough to keep him in Congress-" That is skilled insinua- ton, not charge. write to give you a few facts that will not be disputed.
 When MT. Underwood was first nomi- mated for Congress it was purely per- sonal nomination. He was not at that time connected in any manner with any corporation. He was returned to Congress several times during his first marriage and while he was a widower. There was not even remote corporation infiu- ence" MT. Underwood's second marriage was to Miss Bertha Woodward, daughter of Joseph H. Woodward, president and large owner of the Woodward Iron com pany, That is now his only connection with any great industry, except that his elder brother, William T. Underwood, is interested in coal properties in Kentucky.
 The Woodward Iron company is an in dependent concern, with ample capltai of it's own, and it can and does, because of it's vast coal, ore and limestone proper ties make pig iron more cheaply than any other plant in the United States. That company has within a few weeks purchased 42,000 more acres of coal prop erty, giving it more than 100 years sup ply. This land has two veins of coal of the Pratt seam," one below the other. It also has purchased 240o acres of iron ore-red ore-that gives more than will ever be used if the company makes ten times Bits present output. That is to say, the Woodward Iron company with which Mr. Underwood is connected by mar riage, is rival of the Steel corporation, and really it's only rival according to pub lished statements by northern writers. It has never meddled with politics in any re- spect.
 This company has large furnace ca- pacity and large by-product plants, and can make itself without outside help steel plant of importance It is not in any way under the influence of the Steel corporation.

Government Appropriations

The deficit in the postal service has been overcome, and the people are expected in the coming fiscal year to pay for all the postal accommoda- tions that they may avail themselves of. Mr. Hitchcock does ask for S50,- 000,000 with which to inaugurate a parcels post scheme. The appropria- tion should be voted, for a postal posts would be elf-sustaining and is greatly desired by the people.
 The Panama canal calls for S45,- 100000 to be expended in the year beginning on July 1 next. This is an increase of S4,000,000 over this years appropriation, and $5,640,O0O is asked for to be expended on forti- fications in the canal zone.
 The military establishment wants S15,000,000 more than it had this year. It always wants more money The navy makes estimates based or an annual increase of two battleships not much in excess of this years appropriations.
 All told the various departments except the postoffice ask Congress for appropriations to the amount oi STAB, ,S34 ,563 This would be cut ir expenses of $21, ,2S3,9 ,921 This reduc tion is due to the smaller sum need ed for pensions, to the lessened ex penditures of the agricultural depart ment and to the economy proposed in the estimates for public works The Secretary of the Treasury ask for a lump sum to be expended ol public buildings and grounds. Con gress may not, however, grant this.
