Movement On Foot
to Shorten Road

Backed by prominent citizens of
Reno and Carson and most of the
automobile owners of both cities a
movement is on foot to shorten the
road between tn e two places. Those
who have made a study OF the situa-
ton assert that the route can be
shortened by at least twelve miles,
making it a twenty-mile trip that
may be negotiated in less than all
hour. The expense they estimate 1t
not to exceed $1,000 and claim it
could be raised easily by popular sub
scriptions taken in the two cities. At
the preesnt time, owing to recent
work Gone by the Washoe county
commissioners between Steamboat
Springs and the county line, the dis
tance can be negotiated by automo-
biles i'll a little over an hour. Two
months ago it was considered fast
driving to make it in less than two
hours.
Those back of the scheme claim
that 10y appointing a competent road
builder to so over the road and de-
| signate where cut-offs can be made
no difficulty will be experienced in
securing a shorter and better road.
1t is claimed hat the Lake View hill
could be eliminated by striking di-
rectly over the low hills north OF
Carson. Additional cuts could be
made by skirting the Virginia and
Truckee track anL by Strengthening
the present road in places.-Gazette.

 fined to who emptied the tanks and
 who gave the direct order to empty them. The captain or engineer may
 protest with might and main that they
 knew by the charts that they could
 not get in or out of the river with the

 low the commands of the owners they
 were compelled to empty them. No questions will be asked as to why the owners ordered them to a place where such conditions were necessary. The only fact to be taken into recount will be that they were the ones who gave the order for the tanks to be emptied and therefore they must be held re- sponsible for the awful consequences of their act.

AMAZON

 WIRELESS -,.,

In the Juamaar region of the Amaz- on the natives use crude system of wireless telegraphy, which, it is claim ed, has been in operation for thousands of years. The transmitter found by an explorer was a hollowed trunk of q
 tree suspended from a horizontal pole
 stretched between two stumps. Inside the transmitter had been arranged much like a violin, and it was explain ed that when the instrument was struck smartly with small rubber hammer vibration was created that carried for miles over the hills. The receiver is very similar to the trans hitter, except that it is placed on hardwood platform When the mes sage is struck in the neighboring vil- lage, sometimes thirty miles away, l this receiver catches the vibrations, causing a jerky. singing sound. The sound system, it is said, can be read
 by the members of the tribe. and in this way news of victories and other happenings are told throughout the
 ceuntryside.

II annears the results of the Chicago Grand Jury's investigations are not Tn the least likely to disturb the long es-
 tablished custom of picking out scape goat to be offered as a sacrifice to the public clamor for the punishment of someone for the occurance of great disasters like that of the Eastland.
 After much searching into the various features of this awful catastrophe, the inquisitorial body have decided that some of the smaller fry are the ones responsible and they must be made to suffer as is exactly the case in all oc- eurances of like nature No attempt is made to look for victim outside of the ranks of those directly engaged in the operation of the vessel; not word of censure will fall upon the heads of those who are the owners or control lers or those whose duty it is to see that unseaworthy or dangerous ves- sels are not allowed to operate under such conditions as will tend to menace the safety of others. It will be the engineer or the stoker or the captain oi some other of equally low degree who did or failed to do this or that little something which can be used as pre-
 text for fixing the blame. who will have to suffer. It is not the question o
 whether the vessel could be classed a. safe under emergency conditions O

Little ac. count will probably be taken of the fact that in order to navigate waters of shallow depths, where they were ordered 10 go. and dared not disobey for fear of forfelting their jobs, they were compelled to empty the ballast tanks to the degree that when hun

 upon one side the vessel would in all

THE FIRST SAW.

Talus, the Greek, is said to have in vented the saw from having once found the jawbone of a snake, which he em- ployed to cut through small piece of wood. In early periods the trunks of trees were split into boards with wedges. and, although these deals were not always straight, they were regard ed as much better suited to construc- tion than sawed boards because they followed the grain and lasted longer and were stronger. Water mills for the purpose of saving came into use In the fourth century.

The most striking Illustration of laundering incompetence of Congress In the attempt to frame revenue meas ures is now brought prominently be- fore the country in the decision of the customs court on the so-called "5 per cent. clause" of the present revenue law. On the pretext of aiding Ameri- can shipping. the revenue law passed by the last Congress contained a pro- vision that per cent. of all customs dues should be related when the goods entered the United States in American ships
 When the bill was before Congress 1t was pointed out over and over again that the United States had commercial treaties with practically every nation in the world, by the terms of which it was in express terms provided that no other or different rates of customs duties should be collected on goods en- tering this country in the ships of the countries with which such treaties were outstanding than were charged upon goods entering in American ves- sells. But the Democrats refused to pay any attention to this and forced the bill through,
 The treasury department, when the law went into effect, faced this same difficulty but decided to ignore the law rather a lawless proceeding in itself. The case was taken into court. Now the court holds that the 5 per cent rebate provided in the law is operative and must be granted on all goods entering in American ships Fur ther. the same rebate must be allowed in accordance with the express treaty on all goods coming here in ships of countries with which we have such treaties. .z4& tH sael
 The effect is to reduce customs re- venues another 5 per cent, or some : thing like s11,000,OOO for the present of some fifteen million dollars unlaw- fully collected through the treasury's refusal to obey the law This is all due to the stubborn and blundering re- fusal of Congress to pay the slightest attention to the treaties by which the government had bound itself It fur
