WILSON STRONGLY FAvORS
INITIATIVE N REFERENDUM

CHICAGO, Feb. Ex-Governor Wood
row Wilson, of New Jersey. in an ad-
dress yesterday before the Iroquois
Club, said:
IT believe in the initiative and ref
erendum because they will give the
people real representative government.
They are State and local questions and
are designed to give the people the
power In localities where special in
trests have obtained control of public
affairs.
1T nave never favored the recall of
Judges, because they are no admins

idea is to abolish the laws that make
it possible for special interests to ON

THE party, scheduled to arrive at the
club III 4:15, was twenty-five minutes
sIate. AS a result the Presidents visit
was shortened to about twenty-five
! minutes.
There was time, however, Tor state

Them in New York Speech.

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-President
Taft outlined the policies and perform
ances Of his party and defended them
before the Republican Club at it's an
nual Lincoln dinner at the Waldorf last
night. He said:
at has been said, and 1t is a COM
mon platform expression, that it is we'll
to prefer the man above the dollar, as
If the preservation of property rights
had some other purpose than the as
sistance to and the uplifting of human
rights : = : . . when, therefore, the
demagogue mounts the platform and
that he prefers the man

whether he is In favor of a%bolishing the
right of the institution of private prop
erty and of taking away from the poor
man the opportunity to become wealthy
by the use of the abilitytGod has given
him."
The President was speaking at the
first of three dinners he was to attend
during the evening-those of the Grad
yates Club and the National Retail
Drygoods Association being the others
but he did not spare his voice as he
went on to declare that the "old" Re

HOW TO MEASURE A RIVER.
Simple Method Described for Deterrnin-
ing the Volume.

The United States geological survey
frequently receives letters inquiring for
some simple method of determining the
approximate flow of streams or small
rivers. II is believed that the follow.
ing instructions may be of some value
to those who for any reason wish to
determine the velocity or volume of a
stream.
To ascertain the velocity Of the stream
choose place where the channel is
straight for 100 TO 200 feet mad has a
nearly constant width and depth; lay
Off on the bank line 80 or 100 feet in
length, marking each end; then allow
small chips TO float down the stream,
by one of the methods described below.
noting the time required for these TO
traverse the distance laid of on the
hank. The surface velocity in feet per
second is obtained by dividing the dis
lance in feet passed over by the float
by the time in seconds it takes the float
to travel this distance, The average Of
several such determinations will give the
mean service velocity of the stream.
This result multiplied by the co-efficient
0.sD, gives very nearly the mean velocity
of the stream.
To obtain the area Of the cross sec
ton of the stream, stretch tape from
shore to shore and take the depth OF
the stream at intervals of to 5 feet,
The average of these depths may be as
snmed as the mean depth of the stream.
This average multiplied by the total
width will give the area of the cross
section of the stream in square feet.
The discharge is found by multiplying
this cross-section area by the mean ve-
locity, as obtained by the float measure
ments, the result giving the discharge in
second feet, or, in other words, the
number OF cubic feet flowing past the
point Of measurement each second.
In determining the velocity for small
streams and when only approximate re-
Suits are desired, the float is placed in
the center of the stream only. For larg-
er streams and when greater accuracy
is desired a tape is stretched across
the stream and the distance between
the banks is divided into a number OF
equal spaces or sections. Floats are
then allowed to drift down the stream
as near as possible in the center of
each of these spaces. the same number
of floats being used for each section.
The mean surface velocity is then as
suned to be the mean of the surface
velocities obtained for the several sec
tions. For each float the distance of
its starting point from the right bank
is recorded as indicated.

DISCOVERY OF NEW MINERALS.
Bulletin of Neurological Notes Issued
by the U. S. Geological Survey.

New minerals are constantly being
discovered. Their determination IS usual
ly made by the geochemist-the chem
ist who works along geologic lines-or
the mineralogist. The properties of
minerals already known are likewise
being predetermined, with the result that
some of the published descriptions which
have remained umchallenged for many
years are undergoing constant change.
Most of these minerals as discovered or
determined are of only scientific interest
and no relation is seen between their oe-
curence in nature and their probable
value to the industries of the world.
However, no one can say when the min
eralogic curiosity may not prove to be
a revolutionary factor in some industry.
As an example, the mineral tungsten
was we'll known for 100 years. but only
recently was it found that this mineral
could be made into an electric lamp
filament yielding light which is stat
ed to be the nearest approach TO sun
light.
Another instance is the metal vana-
dunn. As late as 1905 the United States
geological survey published in bulletin
62-"Contributions to Mineralogy
extended description of some vanadium
minerals and il was not then thought
that this metal would command much
attention from the industrial world. But
TO day it is asserted that small guam
titles Of vanadium added to steel re-
suit in remarkable tOughness, giving
great resistance TO shock and TO fatigue"
caused through constant bending; and
