NEW YoRK,s GREAT AouEpucT

When construction on the aqueduct begun in 1907 the Beard Water Supply put its to work digging shafts at either side of the Hudson. During the same year the work little more than begun, let out a contracting firm. That firm struggled with the job for about and failed. Again the city undertook the task. Finally in 1911 it let the Gillespie Contracting Company and completed the following year.
 In determining the level which a bore could be made through solid rock great difficulty counered At first drillings were made in the bot tom of the river from Strong tides and storms interfered with the procedure much how ever that it had to be given Then the engineers hit the scheme of drilling two-inch holes down into the rock from the shafts the rivers sides These drilngs started about 400 feet below the rivers surface and in angle. Eight of them made before it established that there stratum of flawless granite HOO feet down. At this level the tunnel was bored. making a perfect tube with shiny marble interior.
 But the Hudson crossing. as it was called, was only link in the great siphon that will carry New Yorks supply of fresh water from the Catskills. To the north of it. the west shore winds the Moodna tunnel through solid stone 600 feet beneath the earth's surface and in the south of it, on the east shore the Breakneck tunnel pene- trated the Rocky foundations of Breakneck noun tain toward the south. The entire sphon is five and half miles long. Excepting some portions of the city aqueduct it is the greatest piece of work the system.

Where to Make Peace

There is such thing bunderng into peace as well as blundering into war. Before accepting finally the proffered Pan American mediation in controversy with Huerta this government should lay down certain conditions to which all subsequent gotiations should be subject We should insist for thing that peace should be made in the City of Mexico and at Vera Cruz anywhere else that the Mexican people at large might be msin- formed as to the conditions of it and the crcum- stances surrounding it.
 If it should be merely agreed that Huerta should salute the American flag after which the whole thing would be declared off the bulk of the Mexican popu- ation would believe, and coming generations would be taught that Huerta had driven the Americans out of Vera Cruz after having forced them sub init the humiliation of standing by and seeing their flag ridded by twenty one from Mexican cannon
 Probably than half the people of Mexico believe that country easily whip the United States; that one Mexican soldier is good five Americans Within week they have been told by an influential newspaper of Mexico City that of our battleships has been sunk and that all American federas They believe that only the forbearance of Huerta prevents the conquest of the United States

Proeressives in the Primaries

Democratic and republican papers all Ar in the result of the Bisbee primaries the rapid disintegration of the progressive party be- cause, while the democratic candidate for mayor ce!ved 472 votes and the republican candidate. 427 votes, the progressive candidate received cniy = votes. To anyone who knows any thing of the si;u alton al Bisbee these figures utterly without sig nificance There was no contest to bring out pro gressive voters. Weeks before the primaries the gressives in conference had agreed upon their ticket one of whose candidates, by the way, was former republican who had been elected to the city council as republican, had recently become p. o8ressive and asked for nomination by that party There was special incentive progressives Bisbee attend the primaries.
 It has happened that from the beginning of the organization of the progressive party it has seldom made good showing at the primaries We cannot recall that it has ever done so anywhere. We member that at the Phoenix primaries two years for the general election the progressive vote was pitt fully, rdiculously light When the republicans had recovered from their surprise they grew chesty and filled with disdain. They had good reason for believing that the progressive movement was flash in the pan and that the flash all Yet, at the election two months later the progressive vote in this city not only for president but for county and legislative candidates exceeded the republican ny average of more than two to one.
 Throughout the country it much the same throughout the primary period There was preva- lent belief among democrats and republicans that the new party would cut a very unimportant figure In the Michigan primaries that year only votes cast for Roosevelt while 10000 Taft voters turned out But at the election two months aferward Roosevelt received 212.O0O votes, Taft 152,OOo and Wilson 150,000.
 It may be entirely creditabe to the progress sves that they do give the primaries better patronage but has almost invariably happened that they have neglected them and reserved their strength for the general election They generally have reached understanding in advance as to their candidates and have regarded any special activity at the primaries superfluous.
 The general attitude of the progressves toward the primaries is shown in the California figures. The republicans far in the lead and boasting They have strained every from the outset~to n crease their lead. Yet no man familiar with the political situation California the slightest doubt that the progressives will sweep the state.
 The progressives of Cochise county led the repub licans there by than three years ago. Persons who familiar with the political develop in Cochise say that the progressive strength, especially Bsbee has greatly increased within the last two years
 We would suggest our republican brethren to gressve party, at least until the evening of the second Tuesday of November next. There is noth ing sadder in this world than wasted joy.
