over compary's share of the ex.
pense is not estimated.
1t is very reasonable to behave that
the government would go into this
matter in partnership with the state,
rather than with private capital, as the
cost would only be one-fourth to the
federal government under the first
plan. But the state has not taken in.
terest enough in a proposed, improve
ment that has been under investigation
by the government for two years to
suggest even its willingness to co.
operate. Private capital, however, was
willing to go into partnership with
the government in this matter. and, as
the bill now before congress shows, the
war department believes the PROPOSE
ton is sufficiently meritorious that the
improvement should be made even If
1t Is necessary to grant seventy-five
year franchise to private capital to
have it done,
There is no more vital question be-
fore Iowans today than this question
of river improvement. Three years
ago the Courier published reports
from the auditors and supervisors of
thll W -uNC COuILiSS SAo"lhS lA1C III
these counties alone 1,259,230 acres Of
Iowa land are made unfit for continu-
GUS cultivation by river overflow.
These same county officials report
that S51 900 acres Of this land can be
made to grow crops every year If the
rivers are deepened and Strengthened
as they would be in such plan OF
river improvement as the government
proposes. Iowa would save millions of
dollars every year in crop losses If
the rivers were kept within their
banks. ...
Leaving aside the benefits to be de-
rived from the use Of water power now
wasted, and the benefits from making
the stream navigable to freight carry
ing boats, the demand for legislation
should be apparent if the only good
that river Improvement would do would
be to prevent the crop loss from river
overflow.
Let the legislature go into this mat
ter fully when the Francis resolution
comes up for consideration. If the
legislature only goes to the extent OF
disappearing the plan Of improvement
now suggested, without proposing
substitute plan that it can aapprove,
it will fall far short of doing its duty
to the people of the state. -'

WATER POWER QUESTION I'M
PORTANT.

The Iowa legislature is giving con,
sideration to the Des Moines river I'M
provement question, the matter being
brought up in a resolution asking an
adverse report on the bill now pend.
ing in congress which provides for the
improvement Of the river by the gov
eminent working In conjunction with
private capital. Friends OF the river
Improvement question hope that the
legislature will not confine itself solely
to consideration of this resolution, but
will go into the matter thoroughly,
fixing upon some plan Of waterway
development in which the state and
national governments can cooperate.
One phase Of the river Improvement
problem that of using the water now
going to waste to develop electrical
power, has grown to be one of the
biggest questions now before the peo-
pie for solution. The congress is CIV
ing this question more consideration
than ever before. Scores Of bills are
pending at the present session in
which water power rights are in
volved No matter what the merits OF
these bills may be, the fact that they
are being given 80 much cons1dera-
ton in the congress IS an evidence
that 1t is a question Of national i'm
portance.
Recently the government issued a
grant to the Great Falls Power Co., Of
Montana for the transmission OF
power for the identification of $50
miles of the Milwaukee railroad in
Montana and Idaho, The power that
will furnish the electricity to run
trains through that mountainous coun-
try will be solely water power The
secretary of the interior in negotiat-
ing for the leasing of the water rights
involved treated this matter as one of
conservation Of the public resources.
The water power now wasted will be
conserved and the coal saved through
the use Of electrical power will be
conserved for future generations.
The Congressional Record for Jan.
articles in which this water power
question is favorably discussed. The
following interview given out by John
D. Ryan, president Of the Great Falls
Power Co., in which it is predicted that
water power will in the future be
big factor in furnishing power to run
the railroads, was also inserted in the
Record:
John D. Ryan believes that the grant
just received from the government by
the Great Falls Power CO., OF, Montana,

ENDEAVOR TO WRECK
SOUTHERN PAC. TRAIN.

Salem, June IA dastardly at
tempt was made to wreck the South
ern Pacific's Willamette limited pas
senger train at 9:1S o'clock this
morning near the feeble minded
school, three miles from Salem.
A pinch bar lying a short distance
from the track and positive evidence
that spike had been pulled from
the rails was found. There is no
clue to the criminal.
The train, consisting of an engine,
two day coaches, observation, mail
and baggage, was derailed but did
not tip completely over.
Joe Langlord, news agent, sus-
tanned the most serious injury. He
sustained severe cut on the head.
Mrs. Isabelle Woods of Sweet Lake,
was bruised but not seriously nurt.
Engineer Montgomery saw the
kink in the rails about Is yards
ahead and Immediately applied the
emergency brakes reducing the speed
of the train from about As miles and
hour to 20 before the derailment oc-
Cured. The engine stayed upright
after the derailment. The end coach
es landed against telegraph poles and
held the middle coaches from tip
ping over. The steel built cars again
demonstrated their superiority. They
withstood the wreck with practically
no damage. except to the running
gear.

DISCOURAGE USE OF
AUSTRALIAN BEEF.

San Francisco, June 9.-The use of
Australian beef in San Francisco city
institutions is virtually discouraged in
a report of committee to investi-
gate the quality and price with ref
erence to the meat at the Relief
home.
The committee found that the Aus
tralian steak is as good as the Amer
ican cut; that the meat used for stew
and roast is inferior, but that the
mutton is decidedly superior to the
American product The committee,
found, however, that the beef will
cost within three cents per 100
pounds of American beef.
The report declares that a great
disadvantage in the use Of Austral-
ian beef is that portions soon become
soft and that the meant loses its
juices. 1t was estimated that the
meat deteriorated five per cent from
this cause and the committee used
this FIVE per cent in calculating the
cost. Australian beef was furnished
at $500 a hundred pounds. Adding
deterioration, this is brought to
s1O.42, and five cents per 100 is add
ed for drayage, bringing the total to
s1O47 against s105O for American
beef
