30 feet and this morning the district
had a dredge near and was preparing
to sheet pile it. 1t is hoped to close
this break before long but there is a
constant menace that others will de-
velop.
The holding of the Saiz Mr.. Nick
erson explains is not vital to the safe
ty Of the valley but every day that
the Saiz is successfully held means
/ that the Volcano Lake levee will be
subjected to one day less strain. He
says if the Saiz is held for four or
five days or a week, it will save the
Volcano Lake levee just that much.
At no point is the water within six
feet of the top of the Volcano Lake
levee today and a large portion of the
! flow of the Colorado is not striking
the levee at all.
! The rex which has been going on the
| OckerSon levce at the rate of so car
loads daily will hereafter be diverted
to the Saiz levee as it is believed that
the OckerSon as far as mile post Az
will hold.
| AT Volcano Lake there are two quar-
rles and steam shovels which are fur
nlShlng large amount of rock for the
face Of the levee.
The Yuma Sun reports as follows:
At sundown last night the Colorado
,flver had reached stage 296 feet
ON the gauge at the Southern Pacific
bridge and the discharge had gone
above 100000 second feet This is not
the highest gauge reached by .is-
tlnctlVely Colorado river flood, but it
is the largest volume of water ever
I discharged by the Colorado river from
its own watershed. What we mean bv
it's own watershed is to exclude the
, Gila river. There is practically no
water IN the Gila at the present time
to contribute to this flood. All Of this
flood water is coming from above the
: Grand Canyon and practically all of it
from the Green and .Gunnison rivers,
u both of which are reported to be away
cut of their banks. .....
, Yesterday Manager W. w. Schlcch:
Of tho reclamation service, received a
5 vide from Denver, stating that the
! river would remain at its present
f height for eight days with a gauge
reading about 80 feet and discharge
of more than 155 900 second feet
This means, of course, that we are
to have very long period of extreme
v ly high water, and therein lies the
danger, if any danger there be. With
e the river standing at the present gage
height, there will be a tendency t,

ates IN the war as would make for the
future peace of the world This, Mr..
Wilson prevented. He went to Europe.
He had apparently only one aim,
to be the maker of league of which
he should be the head He was deter

of Nations then and there ana in
order to nullify the powers of the
senate given by the constitution of the
league an integral part of the treaty
Of peace with Germany. Thus he pre-
sented to the senate. and intended to
present, dilemma from which he be-
lieved there was no escape. In order
to have peace with Germany, he
meant to compel the senate to accept
with it the League of Nations.
QUESTION TO PEOPLE
'The republicans of the senate,
perceiving the dangers of the league,
determined to resist Mr. Wilson'S
demand. The American people will
never accept that alliance with for
eign nations proposed by the presi-
dent The president meantime has
remained inflexible. He is determin-
ed to have that treaty as he brought
it back or nothing, and to that I'M
perious demand. the people will reply

"They (the people, will tear aside
the veil of words woven to blind and
deceive and come down to the essen
tan and vital point-Mr. Wilson's
plan on one side and the independence
and safety of the United States on
the other.
"All Americans must join together
in their own way and with their own
arguments defeat Mr.. Wilson'S league
as he desires it, whether amended by
him or in it's pristine simplicity
Senator Lodge charged the demo
