THE COMPLETE STORY
 OF ROOSEVELT DAM
The Republican Containing 1t Much in
 Demand.

The Republicans story of the Roose- welt project was the most complete of that great undertaking that has ever been printed in a single issue of a newspaper or periodical. A complete story of the biggest dam in the world will perhaps never be written un- til a bigger dam than the Roosevelt shall be built.
 In anticipation of a demand for the story. The Republican yesterday print ed several hundred extras. most of which were taken yesterday before noon. Others were ordered to be de- livered today There are about 100 left which will doubtless be called for be- fore night.
 Those who wish to preserve this history of the Roosevelt project, cul- minating on Saturday in the dedica- ton of it by Colonel Roosevelt, should call early. Many will of course want to inform eastern friends of the magni- tude ow the project. This story tells it better than it has ever been told or ever will be told.

IN THE EXTRA SESSION
The Prospect of Tariff Re vision-Belief That Wool en Schedule Alone Will Be Taken Up-Reciproc ity Treaty Is Certain.

Washington. March 19.-In a little more than two weeks congress will convene in extraordinary session to take up the Canadian reciprocity matter That congress will not stop al that. however, is certain from the statements given out by the democrats who will control the lower house. Present indications are that, imme- diately upon the convening of con- gress. a resolution will be introduced in regard to the sending of troops to the Mexican border. The president will be called upon to make an unre- served statement in regard to the matter Certain senators and repre- sentatives opposed to the admins tration insinuate that the interests having great financial stakes in Mexico were responsible for the as sembling of American soldiers on the threshold of a friendly nation.
 Both Speaker Clark and Chairman Underwood of the ways and means committee declare that a downward revision of the tariff. cutting the schedules to a tariff for revenue basis. will be undertaken at the special session. The woolen schedule, it is now definitely known, will be the first subjected to the cutting pro- cess. Cotton. steel and textile sched- ules will follow. If the democrats succeed in getting these schedules approved by the aid of progressive republicans in the senate. it is prob able they will wait until the regular session next winter to revise other schedules. The Canadian reciprocity agreement will almost certainly be passed by the house as it comes from the president. Some radical democrats and insurgents want to tack on some other tariff measure, recurring the president to accept or reject both. but most of the leaders oppose this plan.

SUFFERING IN LABRADOR.
Hard Winter Follows Disastrous
 Fishing Season.

North sydney. Cape Breton, March 1g.-A few fishermen who arrived here today brought tales of great suffering in Labrador during the last winter. The last reports that were received from there said that the food supply was almost exhausted and that hund- reds of natives mainly fisher folk, were on the verge of starvation. Supplies were immediately sent to relieve the situation. then regarded as extreme. But months have passed since then and the stricken Labrador people have se- cured no further help.
 Repeated efforts have been made to take them food and clothing. but yes sels laden with supplies have failed re- .peatedly to pierce ice floes which choke the Strait of Belle Isle. the narrow stretch of water which separates Lab rador from the northern coast of New fOundland.
 The present miSfOrtunes of the Lab rad0r people had their beginning in the failure of last seasons fishing catch. It was the poorest in years.

EXCELLENT MAP OF
 SALT RIVER VALLEY
1t Is Published by Dwight B. Heard
 and Is Right Up to Date.

Copies of the 1911 edition of the map of the Salt River valley have been received. The Heard map this year is right up-to date. accurate in every detail and even better printed than its predecessors.
 Howe Williams drew the map. which takes in both the Salt River and the Buckeye valleys, from Granite Reef to the Peoria dam. It is the first map to be published showing the new Roosevelt road. Not only does the map show this recently com- pleted road. but it shows the Glen dale electric line. now in process of construction, and the projected south side line. The Central avenue bridge is indicated, also the surveyed route of the Southwestern canal, ultimately to parellel the Wormser ditch, and the projected lift canal, which is to irrigate the higher lands on the south side within the reservoir district.
 There are really two separate maps, one of the Salt river project from the upper end of Lake Roosevelt to Gran ite Reef. This second map is also valuable because it includes the Ma zatzal. Superstition and other noun tains in the eastern and northeastern part of the county.
 On the same sheet with the maps are two large photographs, one of the Roosevelt dam complete and the other of the Granite Reef dam Both are fine pictures, that of Granite Reef being one of the best ever taken.
 Last year the Heard company had 10000 copies of its 1910 map printed. The demand was so great that this year 15,O0O copies were ordered. Copies are supplied free on application.

SOLDIERS SOAKED
 BY TEXAS TORRENT
From the Diseomforts of Sea to Those
 of Land.

Galveston. March 19.-Rain fell in torrents at Fort Crockett last night and almost flooded out 2.60O soldiers who arrived yesterday from the north on a transport and spent the night under the shelter Of dog tents. Several large tents were blown down and the smaller ones that stood were rendered practi- cally uninhabitable
 Though most of the soldiers were soaked to the skin they came up smil- ing when reveille sounded this morning and entered with enthusiasm into the work of setting their camp in order. It seems that the discOmforts of the voyage hither were due more to over crowding than rough weather, although a heavy sea was encountered the third day out

your dipper away! And your true
reformer will not only drink, but
plunge into the spring, "sink or
swim. surv've oil perish" and hc
will dist!ain the use of a life pre-
server.
Does Billy Taft measure up to
this standard? We fear not; 9TH
pear and his present dilemma would
pear and his present dilelna would
prove to be more apparent than
real. In modern experience, with
despotism and persecution excluded,
reform seldom reacts against the
reformer If he be sincere. But it
will either reform him or destroy
him. 1t would either mould and
shape him into it's spirit and sem
blance or reduce him to the ranks;
he must conform to the new order
or die with the old. The creator
must be greater than the creature
or 1t will rend and ruin him. The
little rivers and streams feed the
ocean only to be submerged and
swallowed up in its vast expanse
the ocean creates the clouds, the
wonderful water works of Nature
to have them serve as her har
maids IN the perpetual replenishing
OF the wealth of waters.
We do not believe that Taft can
make good in the role of reformer.
He is not big and broad and bold
enough. He is a dabbler- a di-
lettante-in the reform business,
and will lose all because he is not
willing to risk all The reformer
who hesitates is lost.
Roosevelt played reformer with
more success than his successor will
ever achieve, not because he is a
better man but because he is n
stronger. Perhaps his was not a
more definite moral purpose than
Taft's, but it was more daringly
and aggressively displayed. His day
was longer than Taft's will be be-
cause, being consummate politi-
clan, he knew how to exploit such
ed to the utmost. His sheer siren
uosity diverted attention from the
weaknesses that are now apparent to
all. He knew as Napoleon knew,
as Cromwell knew, but as few 9TH
er men have ever known, how to
capitalize every force in his favor
and neutralize opposing forces
With or without the camp. He
flddled SO loudly that you could
hear nothing else, as Nero must
have fiddled while Rome burned.
Taft's tune is thin and weak and
it has few variations, (What a con-
trast to that of his predecessor
and he is not much at fiddling
anyhow! He fears discord no
les. than a new tune. And be-
sides the weather's too hot for a
fat man to fiddle in, future or
no future
