Reservoir to Stop Floods a Fake.

An Associated Press dispatch from
Memphis, Tenn, under date of Sept. 26,
says:
"An appropriation of $S5 600, 900 in five
equal annual instsllments is asked of
Congress for the completion of levee
system along the Mississippi river in res
olutions adopted by the Interstate Levee
Association, which concluded its annual
convention here today. The federal gov
ernment also is asked to exercise GER
tain supervision over the entire system
of levees and each of the political parties
is congratulated for having recognized
the national import of the levee problem.
"Col. Roosevelt, who addressed the
convention in the morning, advocated
federal control and federal construction
of waterway betterments. His opinion
that flood water conservation by reservoir
and reforestation would strengthen the
levee system and control the floods in the
lower valley was challenged later today
by Col. Med. Townsend, president of the
Mississippi River Commission. He des-
cribed Col. Roosevelts ideas as theories
and speculations which have not been
applied aud declared that levees are the
only proved means of preventing floods"
What good, in the name of common
sense, we ask again, would few dams on
the upper Allegheny do toward stopping
talk sound ridiculous? The best engi-
neers and experts we have agree on this
point evidently.

THERE should be no question as to how W
the voters ef Forest county should stand
on the election of Representative in the
Assembly at Harrisburg. If this county
ever needed wide awake, experienced
Representative in the Legislature it will
need him this winter, when the cenfisca-
ton of this and other counties by the
water power grabbers will be attempted.
The man we need to represent us at this
most critical time is hon. A. r. Mechling
who is experienced in leglative tactics,
and has the shrewdness to cope with those
who will attempt this diabolical outrage
upon this community. Let no Forest
county citizen lose sight of this vitality

FARMERS, working men, business men
and old soldiers have no better friend
than Peter NJ. Speer, the Republican can
didate for Congress in the Twenty-eighth
Pennsylvania District By close atten-
tion to business he has made an enviable
record since he first went 10 Washington,
a syear ago. Best ofall, he is a staunch
Republican and firm believer in the
party's cardinal principles, particularly
the protective tariff, on which this dis.
trict especially is dependent for pros
perity. All men with Republican ten.
denotes should vote for him, no matter
what they do with the remainder of the
ticket. Anything else would be suicidal

THE high tide of Teddyism was reached
month ago, and the drift is now rapidly
to Taft. A man who has Just returned
from an 5000 mile automobile tour of the
west, says sentiment is changing rapidly
there, and it looks as though all the Re-
publican states, with the possible excep-
ton of California, Kansas and the two
Dakotas will swing back into line for the
President. t.-Punxsutcwney Spirit. The
same sentiment comes from almost every
quarter, and President Taft's prospects
for realization are growing every day.

RAILROAD MAN HAS SOUVENIR
John A Gill Picks Up Interesting Relic
of Eureka and Palisade Road

Reno Gazette: John A. Gill, travelling
agent Of the passenger department Of
the Southern Pacific railroad, has just
come Into possession Of q valcable
souvenir in the shape of a record Of an
nual passes issued by the old Eureka &
Palisade railroad. The book was pre-.
sented TO Mr.. Gill by J.. E. Sexton, gen.
eral manager Of the Eureka-Nevsda
Railroad Company, which has taken over
the Eureka g. Pslisade railroad since
the reconstruction of the line which was
washed out W years ago in the disas-
terons foods which devastated the ooun-
try about Eureka, Nevada. which at one
time was the greatest silver mining
camp in the world, the product of the
Eureka mines controlling the price of
silver in the markets of the world.
The pass record book contains a list of
over 5000 m of prominent railroad
officials. many of whom have passed
away, while others are to day the COM
handing men in railroad circles. The
record is from 1878 to 1910, the year
when the Eureka & Palisade Dad was
washed out for a stretch of AZ miles.
1t is most likely that the great ma
jority Of the pass holders never even saw
the Eureka and Palisade railroad which
ran south "a miles from P~alisade, Ne.
vada, to Eureka, Nevada. In the early
seventies this road did a tremendous
business, as the mines at Eureka were
producing great quantities of silver at q
time when silver was in demand.
Mr.. Gill has added this treasure to his
already valuable collection Of railroad
souvenirs.
