Conclusions.

1st. The work on the embankment
will be closed down on account of
cold weather about November 18th.
2nd. At that time, there will be
required to complete the embank-
ment $3.50 cubic yards and to COM
plete it to elevation 6767, there will
be required $4,000 cubic yards.
9rd. The embankment can be COM
pleted to elevation 6767 by June
18th, and to its full height by July
18th ifall the equipment is used, or
by August 18th if the dredge is not
used after the embankment is COM
pleted to elevation 6767.
4th The rip-rapping should be
completed within 80 days after the
completion OF the embankment or
by August 18th to September 18th.
5th. The storage for the North Side
in 1916 should be 20s,295 acre feet.
9th. The cost will be very close to
the estimate.
7th think the work has been ex-
tremely we'll handled in every re-
spect, and a great deal of credit /:

North Side storage for 1916, 20S,295
The rip-rapping of the embank-
ment can be made to keep pace with
the embankment so that it can be
completed not more than 80 days af-
ter the completion of the embank-
ment.
AS far as can be seen at the pres
ent time, the cost of the work, less
the returns from that part of the
equipment that can be readily sold at
the close of the work, will be very
close to the estimate OF ssO00,000

WOULD WE'D EDITOR
TO MUZZLE HER VIEWS
Miss Sadie v. Fenton Says Too
Many Suitors Only Desired to
Control Policy of Her Paper.

DENVER. June 27.-Mfss Sadie velle
Fenton, vassar graduate and the
youngest woman editor in the United
States, says that she has had to re-
fuse numerous matrimonial offers
from men who proposed mainly for
the reason that they desired to control
the editorial policy of her paper. the
Logansport Times, published In the
Indiana town of that name, and hav-
ing the reputation of being the oldest
local prohibition paper in America.
i've had lots of proposals since I've
been editing the paper" said Miss
Fenton, who Is here on her way to
the annual convention of the National
Editorial Association at Los Angeles,
but they have been from men who
wanted to marry me because they
would like to edit the paper. Several
of these were from men who did not
believe in my views on prohibition
and suffrage, and evidently thought
the quickest way to correct them
would be to marry me-"

FRIEND OF FRENCH
TO RETURN TO WAR
George c. Moore Is DESTROYS Of
Seeing More History Made.
Will Cross Continent.

DETROIT, June N.-George Gordon
Moore. financier. sportsman and the
American whose intimacy with Field
Marshal French, of the British armies,
has enabled him to witness the working
of some of the great battles Of the
European war, was In Detroit today
on his way to his famous Dromore
Farm. on the banks of the St. Clair
river.
Mr.. Moore explains his return to the
United States as one of purely busi-
ness nature-business of interest to him
self only and not to the allied nations.
He says he will make a hurried trip
turn to Europe. where he expects to
see still more history made on the
battlefield. He was with the English
armies In France since early last fall,
and his belief is that the allies cannot
lose.
Il think the war will end within a
year" said Moore, 1.-The end coming
when the munitions Of the allied forces
are superior to those Of the Germans-a
condition that is fast becoming reality
under the management of Lloyd-George.
But there are no finer fighters in the
world than the English and Canadian
armies. Russia is far from done. but
her troops are sorely in need of NUM-
tions.
THE most remarkable thing that has
come under my observation Is the fight
ing of the Canadians at Yprcs. The
Iurcos gave way under the gas attack
and the Canadians were surrounded,
but they charged and took 800 prison.
ers. One man of every two in that en-
gagement was killed, but the only ad-
yentage the Germans gained was the
temporary one of forcing back the Tur-
cos.
Much is said in the United States
or our unpreparedness for war. We
think that such calamity as war
could not occur but 1t is a wrong
idea. In case Germany should win
which / firmly believe will not be the
case-she would look with longing eyes
to the Western hemisphere. Within a
radius of 10 miles from New York is
manufactured most Of the munitions OF
war and the capture of the mills would
be very simple for any nrmy such as
the Germans could land, and then what
would the country do? It would sink
to the same level as China.
You hear of a world peace with the
end of the present strife 1t cannot
be. How can It be fo- gotten In this
generation or in the next? Those who
hug to their bosom the delusion of
peace do not understand the basis of
government"

Horace Dodge, of Detroit. attacking the
constitutionality of the income tax law
The Federal court in Michigan sustained
a surtax of $4,000 against each of the
Dodges.

term of the Supreme Court
