Under this commission is the board
Of river regulation. Seven of this
board are appointed by the president
and constitute an executive commit
tee under which the real work is to
be carried on.
The essential feature of the bill is
the fact that it treats every river sys-
tenn as a unit from source to mouth.
1t recognizes that destructive floods
cannot be prevented by any one
method, but that it is necessary to use
all methods in cooperation.
1t provides for forest cover to pro-
tect the headwater of streams and |
hold back the rainfall in the natural |
earth reservoirs; for artificial surface |
reservoirs in the foothills to hold back |
the flood water until needed for some |
beneficial use or until the channel be- |
low can carry it off; for the drainage
of sWamps in the Mississippi valley; |
for the building of levees, revetment |
and bank protective work, and the
Strengthening and deepening of chan
nels; and for the cutting of outlet |
channels where the rivers empty into |
the sea.
The great ends to be gained by the
constructing of this system of river
regulation are the prevention of
floods, the Qualification and purifica-
ton of water for domestic supply, the
aid to the navigabiIity of streams, the
increase of water available for irriga-
ton, and the development of an enor-
nous amount of water power
Immediately after President Will
sons Inauguration Senator Newlands
had a conference with him at which
they went over the bill, and the presi-
dent signified his approval of its pro-
visions. At the same time he directed

ments concerned-war, interior, agri-
culture and commerce-to. confer

THEN AND NOW.

One of the chief differences between the business methods of today and those of a few decades ago is the pol icy of guaranteeing satisfaction. In the old days if you made a bad bar gain you had no redress. The joke was on you. You should have been too sharp to be worsted,
 But now 1t Is different. If the thing is not right you take 1t back and say so, and the man you get 1t from makes it right or takes it back and refunds the money. This is as it should be. l believe that business will become more harmonious and progressive in pro portion as the seller and buyer learn that their interests are those of friends and not opponents. This is the policy which follow with splen- did results in the management of The Juneau Drug Co.
 From observation of many success ful business enterprises and from ac- tual experience in management of one of the largest drug concerns in the country, one important fact stands out above all others and that is: The sue cessful business of today is built not on the first transaction, but on re- peat orders. And repeat orders come only where satisfaction is assured without having to weigh the purchase to make sure it is fun measure.
 The Juneau Drug Go. guarantees any article it sells. We can do it because we buy the very best grade of goods in all of the various linees we carry and because any article that we sell was considered first from the view point of the prospective customer and last for the possible prof, derived from it's sale.
