TEALs ADDRESS.
CONTINUED From Page rwo).

hudreds OF Thousands Of acres OF
land needing but the magic touch OF
water to transform the desert into a
garden. The contour OF the country
il such that but a small percentage OF
these lands can be irrigated by grav-
ity They can only be watered by
pumping. This method, while the
best, can be successfully carried out
only by using cheap power. Above
Cello .here are many rapids which
will ultimately he improved by means
OF locks and dams. and the general
canallzation Of the river. with every
dam, water power will be created and
this power should be utilized. In 9TH
er words. the use Of our rivers for
navigation should not be the only one
considered. All beneficial uses OF
these streams should be taken advan-
tage Of. and when they can be made
available in connection with the i'm
provements for navigation. II is worse
than blunder not to do so.
Possibilities Ahead.
While I have not time to elaborate
this thought, the slightest considera-
ton will disclose the magnificent pos
slbilitles that await the proper i'm
provement Of the Columbia and Snake
rivers When it is accomplished, as
in the not distant day It will be, the
Inland Empire will be an empire in
fact as well as in name-an empire Of
industry of commerce, Of manufac-
ture and agriculture: and the valleys
OF the Columbia and the Snake will
have become one vast garden, full Of
happy homes and contented and in
dustrious people.
It is hardly necessary for me to
speak OF the profound satisfaction
take in the completion of this great
work, and the pride and honor l feel
on having been called on TO preside
at this epoch-making occasion. Not
only have we the qualification that
comes from seeing the actual results
Of our labor, but our success thus far
will but spur us on to further efforts.
Already this particular achievement is
in the past Our faces are still set to
the future, and we must never falter
nor tire until from the mountains to
the sea oUr great river Is as free as
the air we breathe. and the land 1t
waters and serves is giving forth in
abundance all the fruits Of the soil
until this country becomes an en-
pire, not only of produetiveness, but

Simple Remedy.

A simple but eficacious steam rem edy for cold in the head and hoarse- ness is to inhale steam from a sponge dipped in boiling water Cover the sponge with boiling water, wrap a towel around it so that you can hold the ends of the towel instead of the scalding sponge. Bury your nose and mouth in the covered sponge and breathe through nose and mouth. When the sponge loses heat, remove the towel and pour on some more boil ing water.
 Cold compress is an excellent and easy cure for sore throat Wrap cloths wrung out in iced water round the throat and renew as soon as they grow warn.
