CAPRICIOUs RIO GRANDE.

The Rio Grande is such a capricious
river that it has been necessary a
number of times to appoint commits
sioners on the part of the United
States and Mexico to settle boundary
questions it has set afoot. says the
Youths Companion. In illustration of
its vararies this story of the expert
ences of mining man in New Mex
leo is told:
He was taking a derrick into the
mines, loaded upon four wagon
wheels drawn by four mules. He had
two helpers one of wnom was famil-
lar with the country. The party came
to the Rio Grande an hour before
shutdown. A wide river bed was to
be seen but there was no water

other. The water was there, but it
was flowing through the sand be-
meath the surface.

was for camping on the nearer bank
where the grass was good: but his
helper told him that that would never
do unless he was willing to take his
chances OF staying there a week or
so. A good deal of water sometimes
came down suddenly. and It would
be well to get across while they could
Accordingly they started over the dry
sand, when OF sudden the two lead
mules were floundering in a quick
sand and the whole outfit came near
being drawn in. They got the two
mules clear OF the harness, and the
other two mules drew first one and
then the other out OF the quicksand
The beasts were safely hitched again
and by making a long circuit got past
the quicksand to the other bank. By
that time It was almost 10 o'clock and

Unlike its pessimistie morning bro
ther the Evening Telegram of Port.
land looks upon
\ Desirable Law. the new tariff law
as something very
desirable for the country. Following
is the Telegram's comment upon the
passage of the bill;
Tariff revision downward is fact.
II may not be so downward" as many
people in this country would like to
see but it is in the right direction and
there is another day coming.
Upon the whole it is to be said
without qualification that President
Wilson has done excellently in this
tariff matter. To the president must
be given the greatest share of praise
for there is abundant evidence that
without the executive pressure
brought to bear during the las four
or five months democracy in congress
would have done little if any better
than it has done formerly when it at
tempted tariff revision. President
Wilson was moved with the spirit of
earnestness and honest compliance
with the promise to the people who
elected congress on the tariff issue,
and demanded honest revision or none
at all
All this is not to say that the pres
ent tariff is not without flaws nor at
al! amenable to criticism. At this
time such a tariff is impossible of
achievement.
Broadly speaking the new tariff is
a reduction of 80 per cent from the
import tax imposed by the Payne
Aldrich bill with a free list which in
cludes sugar, wool, livestock and other
agricultural products and raw ma
terial. This means loss of many
millions of revenue to the government,
which is balanced by the income tax
levied or to be levied on incomes of
$4,000 a year and up, with an increas-
ing tax on the up" The provision
which removes the appointment of
those who will collect that tax from
the field of civil service is to be com
mended, the provision which excludes
the importation of goods manufactur-
ed chiefly by child labor is likewise
to be commended. And the further
provision which contemplates the Gre
alton of a commission as an advisory
board in the revision of tariff laws, is
one that is bound to meet with the
business approval of the country.
Practically it will be three years
before the voters of the country will
in effect be able to say whether they
approve this law as a whole and would
go further in the same direction or
not. BY that time the new law will
have had the opportunity for its own
justification. The people generally
believe that revision downward will
benefit the country. They believe that
so strongly that they have turned the
men who did not believe it and would
not accede to it out of power. They
elected others to do their bidding in
this matter of tariff, and that has
been done so far as existing circum-
stances viii permit-not perfectly
done. perhaps, but accomplished with
manifest honesty and sincerity. II
may be said, too, that the country
generally awaits the test of the new
tariff in spirit of optimism.
