After an absence of a week from the bench on account of sickness, Judge Stanford yesterday put in a busy day in an effort to catch up with the dock ct in his court. Three decrees of di- Vorce were granted during the day as follows: George E. Ferguson from Mary F. Ferguson; Mary J. Elkins from Sidney J. Elkins; and Emma B. Johnson from Brutus Johnson.
 On motion of the county attorney, the cdse of Elmer Coker Judge s. W. Mccall and James T. Murphy. charged with conspiracy to bribe Ed ward O'Brien and the case of Judge Mccall, Coker and John Doe. charged with Kidnapping O'Brien, were dismissed by Judge Stanford According to the story told by O'Brien, the men first of fered him a bribe of $10,000 not to file the referendum petition against house bill No. so, and failing in that, he all legged, they attempted to kidnap him.

Huge Expansion In
 Horsepower ShouUn
 By United States

NO unlL or measurement or the growth of Americas industries is more convincing or more accurate than the foot rule of horse power. In 20 years the consumption of electrical energy has expanded nearly 4,000 per cent.
 Twenty years ago. on the best data available, the industries of America consumed only about one-ha1f million horsepower. In fact, electrical horse power then equalled only five per cent of all primary horsepower.
 Today. electrical horsepower annual ly is around 20.000,0o0 and already en- Engagements of central station service are being made to take care of 24 ,0o0, 000 by the beginning of 1924.
 The electrical motor has won un- iversal favor and has largely supplant- ed the steam gas and gasoline engines in many fields of industry. The short age of labor and the shortage of fuel have served only to emphasize the say .ngs in the overhead of the electrical motor.

WORLDS LARGEST POWER DAM IN
 COLUMBIA RIVER

The longest dam in the world will be constructed at Priest Rapids, on the Columbia River in Eastern Washing ton It will be a mile and a half long, longer than the famous Assouan dam in Egypt. Also, this $15O, ,000, 900 pro- ject will have the largest hydro electric development of any water power in the United States, with the exception of those at Niagara raIls and on the St. Lawrence River.
 The installation of this immense en- terprise in the far Northwest by East ern electrical men gives promise of the conversion of isolated waste lands into a teeming industrial and agricultural garden. More than 50,000 acres of az ricultural land along the river for 20 miles from the head of the rapids will be reclaimed with water raised by hy- draulic pumping stations.
 The Columbia River is now navigable for river steamers and barges from the ocean to the foot of Priest Rapids With the installation of locks and the removal of some minor difficulties navigation will be extended 130 miles farther up the river. The dam will be located 14 miles below Beverley, where a transcontinental railroad line crosses the river. This will give Priest Rapids freight service to any part of the world and open up Eastern Washington, which long has been one of the deso- late spots of the country, to the in- dustry of the world. The dam will be 90 feet high and will create a lake one and a half miles wide and nine miles long.
 This development, however, will further increase the present unbal- anced ratio of vast power in the West ard inadequate power in the East More than 70 per cent of the water power of the nation is located west of the Rockies and S5 per cent of the power used in the United States is in the states east of the Mississippi.
 Is power to be the new lure of the West? From Greeleys days men have gone West in search of fortune and game, yet the East has steadily in creased in centers of population. This has been due, undoubtedly, to the in dustrial and commercial domination of the East. AS the nation grows and the power assets of the East reach their limits, the injunction: Co West, young man" is likely again to play an important role in readjusting the liv- ing conditions of the land. But when the young man goes West this time there will go with him vast and mighty industries which will locate where power will be as everlasting as the snows on the mountains and the rivers winch wash on to the seas. -O--

THE AMPERE, UNIT OF ELECTRIC
 CURRENT STRENGTH

THE AMPERE, UNIT OF ELECTRIC
 CURRENT STRENGTH
 Editors Note;-In previous issue
 the volt, unit of electrical pressure,
 was described and the story of
 Alessandro Volta, after whom this
 electric term was named, enter
 tainingly told. in this and succeed
 ing issues will appear articles on
 electric terms which bear the
 names of pioneers in electrical re-
 search, the lives of these great
 men are wonderfully impressive.
 Since electricity is not a substance which adds weight or size to the wire through which it flows, much uncer- tainty frequently is found among users of electricity in defining its measure ments. The average housewife is puzzled when the terms volt, ohm and ampere are found on the motors of her washer and she is not at all satisfied that she correctly understands what a 50 watt lamp means, or how she is paying for kilowatt hours used.
 The principal terms used in measur- ing and distributing electricity are the names of pioneers in the electrical field Thus the volt, named after Volta, is the unit of electrical pressure: the am- pere, named after Andre Marie Am pere, is the unit which measures the amount of the flow of electric cur rent etc.
 Ampere was born in Lyons, France a little over a century ago. All his life he worked over experiments in cleo tricity. The chief source of Ampere' s fame is his researches in the field of electro -dynamics, of which he was the father
 To get an idea of just what an ann pere is, let us turn again to the garden hose. With the faucet closed the wa ter is dormant. It is locked up and can not escape. When you turn the faucet the water comes out. There may be very little pressure back in the hose and you get only feeble flow of water. You always have been able to measure this water pressure. It is measured by a guage in pounds per square inch.
 Now electricity flows in exactly the same way, except that it does not run through a pipe. It flows through a wire, or as the electrical men say through a conductor, which is gen. erally a wire of soft copper because oi it's high conductive qualities. This means that it sort of helps the elec- tricity along and does not retard its flow, like iron would. Electricity is turned off or on just like water. Ii is measured by a meter which shows the sum of the amperes and volts The rate of flow of the water is meas ured by the number of gallons pei minute or hour. The flow of cleo l trieity per second is called an ampere Of course Marie Andre Ampere haC nothing, in the world to do with an am | pere but the fathers of electricity called l this unit after him to honor the mem ory and achievements of a man who worked so hard to understand what many people now know about cleo. 1 tricity.

Iron Rur, By Motor
 Latest InUention

During the past year several new ironers have been produced, and on most of them the manufacturer has siTnplified the method of operation by using a foot lever to control the pres sure of the shoe upon the roll. A well known Chicago company, however, is now producing a AZ home ironer in which the. electric motor roes all the work and all operations are controlled by moving small lever less than two inches in length.
 The old method of controlling the shoe by either hand or foot levers has teer entirely eliminated in this new machine. A special arrangement makes IL possible to reverse the roll for chang Ing pads by mere pressure of a second small lever The machine is strictly an automatically controlled appliance and yet is one of the simplest ironing ma- chimes that has so far been built.

ELECTRIC SERVICE
 ENHANCES VALUE
 IF FARM LANDS

The land values in Tulare county, California, have increased within the space of six years by the astonishing sum of $56,000.000i Many farmers with from 100 to 800 acres in Tulare county have become independently wealthy during this period. It is generally ad- n;itted that electric service on the farmc played leading part in this in creased valuation.
 At the same rate. electric service on only one-fourth of all the farms of the United States, those adjoining nrasept electric transmission lines, would in- crease United States farm values by $20,O0O, ,000,oO0!
 This is sum almost equal to the money raised on the five Liberty loans. Although we are accustomed today to think and to talk in millions and bill- ions, perhaps most of us, especially we, who have mental pictures of the days back home,'' can still grasp the essentials of an estimate based upon twenty billions of dollarsl
