 The British government led in the movement for the abolition of slavery Slavery was terminated in the British possessions in 1884, when 770,2SO slaves became free, Parliament hay ing granted nearly a hundred million dollars for the compensation of the owners of slaves.
 England also led in aboIishing serf- dom, which was finally extinguished iE that country in 1860. The insti- tuition of serfdom. which involved the practical enslavement of vast bodies of white men, f1ourished in a number of the German states until the early part of the nineteenth century, aI- though it was abolished by Joseph IT., Emperor of Germany, in his heredi- tary- states in 1781. Russia was the last great power to free it's serfs. Nicholas T. commencing the move ment in 1842.

COMMISSION SHOULD HANDLE INTERSTATE MATTERS DEALING
 WITH THE TANNING OF RIVERS
Millions in Property Lost Each Year in Floods That Might Be Averted or Diverted to the Recaimng of Vast Tract of Desert.

Washington, Dec. 17.-In his forth coming annual report Secretary Lane says:
 No one can survey the physical con dif:on of the 5nite1 States without being impressed and almost over whelmed with the magnitude Of the work that must be done in keeping our rivers within bounds and putting them to use. It is the largest task that the Government must undertake sooner or later, and the sooner in my. Judgment the better. This matter came immediately and most practical 1y to my attention a trip made in. the late spring to the lower valley of the Colorado River. On the Arizona side of this river the Government is retaining the desert. That 1owland will grow almost anything, from dates to- alfalfa. Its most helpful friend, and it's unre1enting enemy. too, is the river itself. for without the river it would return to cactus and sage. Yet the river is so jealous of her freedom that she yearly attempts with violence and by insidious methods as well, to- reclaim for herself each foot of land that has by stealth been taken from her.
 On the opposite side of the river, the California side, the river is held

sive schools of thought on this matter of keeping the Colorado in it's place. One is for sending the river willy-ni1ly down the old channel. The other is for letting the river live it's own life. but keeping it off our preserves. One may be termed the absolutist theory and the other the democratic theory. Congress has thus far com 1nitted itself to the latter. And this year, when danger threatened, Con gress joined in raising a fund to keep the river from forcing it's way north into the Imperial Valley, and this work was successfully executed under this department by the former Chief of Engineers of\the United States Ar my, Gen. w. L. Marshall. No one, however, believes that the work is at an end or that we have done more than put a good patch upon it.
 Now, far above this point of dan ger there are thousands of square miles of land that need but the water of the Colorado River to make them as fruitful as the lands of the San Joa- quin or the Salt River Valley. We need to catch that water when it is young, soon after it has been born from the snows. There, in mountain valleys it should be kept for a time, and, as needed, led into the peaceful paths of usefulness. And on that prob lem the Reclamation Service is work ing. The difficulty is to find large reservoir areas.
 This instance is cited to show how intimately the matter of flood control and of reclamation are bound togeth- CT. The problem extends from sea to sea. When we come eastward, to the Missouri and the Mississippi for ex- ample, we find that in their upper reaches the lands need the waters, while in their lower reaches the lands must be saved from the waters.
 No one can take the yearly toll of lives lost and of property destroyed by the furious and unrestrained sweep of our rivers without realizing that the people of, this country cannot

in by mountains until it has reached the Mexican line. There, by a ca pricious turn. it deserts it's o1d-accus- toned channel and flows westward into what was once a lake, but is now little more than morass, and so slowly finds it's way to the Gulf of
 California. Immediately north of this westward bend in the river is the Imperial Valley, which has lately been used by several nove1ists to illustrate the heroic struggle of man with na- ture. For this valley was once a sea itself, and has indeed left a sort of sea in a. lake known as the Salton Sea. The fruitful soil of this valley, hundreds of feet deep, is the silt of the Colorado, the deposit ed wash of thousand miles of noun tain channel. Each June. when the snows of the Rockies melt the Colo ado, resentingl the limitations which man has set up for it, presses. with two strong shoulders. against both sidesX of it's prescribed banks, like Porthos under the slow caving of the earth. And as long as that flood comes the people /on both sides must watch and work as the Ho1landers have done.
 There are two distinct and aggres-

CHICAGO FREIGHT
 TIE UP ENDS AS
 STRIKERS RETURN

Chicago, Dec. 17-With the settle ment of the strike of 600 employees of the Belt railroad of Chicago, mer- chandise valued at millions of dol lars, which had been tied up since the strike was called last Tuesday, was released when the strikers returned to work.
 More than 15, 900 1oaded freight cars had clogged the huge transfer yards at Clearing. Under the terms of the settlement which was effected last night, the men will be provided with eight trains daily for transportation to and from work, instead of every hour, as had been the practice.
 The strike was settled chiefly through the efforts of G. w. w. Hang CT, of the Federal Board of Media ton and Consolidation
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1915-12-17

regard themselves as owning this land, really possessing it, until they have brought these waters under sub lection. And in doing this they will literally create new land by the mil lions of acres, lands that will support millions of people as against the thou sands which live upon it to-day. And in saying this am not speaking with out authority, for a year ago we en- joyed the value of a visit from the renowned builder of the Assuan Dam, Sir William Willcocks, who has spent his life in India, Mesopotamia and Egypt river tanner. And after he had seen our problem he sighed with regret that it might not be his for tune to see the day, that he said would surely come, when the valley of the Mississippi would be another valley of the Nile, only greater in area and more perfectly adapted to the white mans life.
 Why Should the Whole Burden Be
 Borne To-day?
 How these great works can be car ried on calls for constructive thought not merely on the engineering side but more immediately upon the, financial side as to those ways and means by which the lands reclaimed shall be made to bear in some degree the bur- den of the expense As to the funds which will be needed, they mount into such figures as to be staggering. And I can see no hope that this work will be adequately undertaken without the Government advancing it's credit and investing directly some of it's own funds We are conducting this Gov ernment from day to day out of cur rent revenues. Only the richest of people could pursue such a policy. No private enterprise attempts it. No railroad system has been built that way. But few of the States now con- struct their highway systems out of the years revenues. The perrna- nent improvements which the whole people undertake are a legitimate

Seni-Centenary of the
 Thirteenth Amendment

It will be just half a century to- morrow since William Henry Seward the American Secretary of State. pub hcly announced the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment to the Con- stitution of the United States, by which slavery was abolished The famous amendment, by which. four millions of human beings were freed, was ratified by twenty-seven States. don the eighteenth of December. 1865, it became effective, supplement- ing and confirming L1ncoln's enamel patton proclamation.
 The Thirteenth Amendment pos- sesses the grandeur Of simplicity and the virtue of brevity. It reads:
 ARTICLE XIII.
 Section 1.
 Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for been duly convicted, shall exist with in the United States, or any place sub- ject to their Jurisdiction
 Section
 \ Congress shall have the power to enforce this article by appropriate leg isIatfon-
 By the emancipation proclamation of 1863 Lincoln offered the gift of freedom to 3.06S, 1892 slaves in .ArHan- sas, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mis- g1SSippt, North Carolina, South Caro- lima, Texas, and parts of Virginia and Louisiana This was the territory controlled by the Confederacy. The institution of slavery was not disturb ed by the proclamation in Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland. Missouri, Ten nessee, West Virginia, and parts of Virginia and Louisiana. There were 831,78O slaves in these States who did not receive the gift of freedom until the Thirteenth Amendment was adopt ed Practically speaking, however, the surrender of Lee sounded the death kneII of slavery, and the con stitufionaI amendment only IegaIized what had already been accomplished.
 While the Thirteenth Amendment ended the institution of slavery, so far as the great powers were concern ed. the institution continued to flour isE1 for many years in the West Indies and Brazil The Spanish government abolished slavery in Porto Rico in 1873 and in 1879 the Spanish parIia- ment passed a<bill providing for the gradual emancipation of the slaves of Cuba The first step toward the over throw Of the institution in Brazil was taken in 1867. but it was not until
