Once Navigable Stream Reduced

Fishermen Gather Big Catches In
Streamlets Where Once Angry
Torrents Ragged.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich.-Modern en-
cheering has broken the prestige of
the old-time 500 rapids, reducing to
rocks and shallow pools a stream
which, in the days before the civil
war, schooners piled with no fear of
hitting bottom.
Completion Of the last of the COM
pensating dams above the rapids has
brought to the surface moss-clad rocks
hidden for centuries. and it is now pos
sible to wade across space where. in
1852. there was a stream of such re-
spectacle volume that the sailing
schooner Uncle Sam passed easily.

CUT RELIEF IN AUSTRIA
New Survey Of Conditions Causes
Reduction by American
Organization.

Nienna.-A new survey Of economic
conditions has caused the American
child relief to make a drastic cut in
its charity in Austria. 1t is proposed
this summer gradually to reduce the
nupber of children fed to 100000 and
these will be confined largely to vien-
ma and other cities where much want
will be faced during the coming
winter.
The general improvement in the rural
regions is illustrated by the action OF
the Americans in closing 6S of their
kitchens in upper Austria alone in one
week. All children Of parents in fair
financial circumstances are excluded
under the new program, as well a.

A DECADE OF ARIZONA HISORY

An article on Arizona prepared
for supplement of the elventh edi-
ton of the Encyclopedia Britannica
by Professor H. A. Hubbard, head of
the Department Of History of the
University Of Arizona, shows the i'm
portant role that the youngest state
of the Union has played in connec-
ton with the political and economic
isues of the last ten years. The
question of her admission introduced
controversy at Washington that
eliminated in the famous message of
President Taft on the recall of
judges. The Alien Labor Law call
cd forth a decision of the United
States Supreme Court. The. numer-
GUS industrial disputes were matters
of national interest and concern ;
and the deportation incident was the
occasion of an investigation and re-
port by a commission appointed by
President Wilson. This indicates
that a new state cannot be provin-
cial, for within its boundaries neces-
sarily appears isues OF more than To-
cal Importance. Here are gathered
men from other states and from 9TH
er nations; and thus many lines of
thought are brought to focus in the
new commonwealth.

PROSPECTOR OPENS NEW ORE
(Mohave County Miner)

One of the most important strikes
Of ore that has been reported from
he Secret Pass section in many
years was brought to our attention
this week by Walter NJ. Harrison,
who has been prospecting that coun-
try for the past several years. Mr..
Harrison owned claim which he
named the Red Crown, and in pros
pecting the vein during the past few
weeks ran on to an outcrop that is
developing into real ore body.
The vein upon which shaft is be-
ing sunk is four feet wide, an aver
age across the whole width giving
values in gold Of S32, and one foot
Of which runs $129. The hole is
now down eight feet and the ore
body has been traced along the sur
face several hundred feet Free gold
is found along the outcrop for a long
distance and the chances for the OPP
ening Of a big ore shoot are excel
lent.
Secret Pass is just north of Gold
road, but the country there has been
denuded of its Gaping 'of andesite

ite. 1t is the top of the zone in
which the SheeptraiI and Katherine

DON'T KNOCK

There is no place in the news
paper business for the man who
knocks his town." said W. W. Aikens
former owner Of the Franklin Ind)
Star, in an address to journalism
students in Indiana University. Mr..
Aikens, who is treasurer of the Ma
tional Editorial Association, recent
ly sold the Star which he started 35
years ago. He made the paper into
one of the most successful small
city dailies in Indiana.
II often happen to drop into a
shop where the editor is cussing the
merchants for not advertising or de-
nouncing the people in general for
not showing more interest in his pa
per. Such man had better quit bus
mess. There's nothing wrong with
your town. It's you.
There is nothing you can't do
with a newspaper if you get out
among the people and make them
like you and if you run a conserva-
tive constructive paper an editor can
make his community into what he
wants it to be- I am telling you the
truth; I have seen it done"
Mr.. Aikens declared that a small
city newspaper should have ON edi-
torial page for the discussion of To-
cal interest. Unless paper has an
editorial page, he pointed out, the
editor is too likely to inject his own
opinions into the news. Then the
result is that the people lose conf
dence in his paper. Don't knock
in your editorials. 1t is better to
praise than to blame. Don't be sar-
castle at somebody's expense. Run
an instructive, helpful, optimistic ed
itorial page.
Don't print notices of window
displays unless your paid for them, :"
Mr.. Aikens admonishes. "The news
paper has only two things to sell:
circulation and advertising. 1t can
of them. The average merchant
who may have two thousand articles
in his store would not think of CIV
ing any one of them away. Still he
expects a newspaper to give him a
free notice of a window display. An
editor should never do it, no matter
how firmly the merchant may insist
or how distinctive the display may
be-"
Mr.. Aikens told the students that,
in his opinion, small city newspap-
er should not carry wire service in
attempt to compete with a metro
politan newspaper. He said news
paper should emphasize the local
news Of the community. In this con-
nection he pointed to the fact that
his paper, although published in a
city of only about 5000. maintained
a staff of city editor, two report
ers, and society editor.
Politics should be second to gen
eral news in any newspaper" Mr.
Aikens declared. Many publishers
have had to go out of business be-
cause their papers carried too much
political matter that bored people
while the opposition paper printed
the live, interesting, human interest
news of the town.
Don't take the boom out Of pro-
posed new enterprises in your COM
munity by printing too many advance
notices about them. Readers get
tired of seeing story every day
about a new building that is being
planned or new enterprise that is
about to be launched. In a surpris-
ingly short time people lose all en-
thusiasm for a project if a newspap-
er gives it too much space. There is
such thing as killing a good pro-
! ject by too much favorable public
| ity.'

NEW RUBBER COMPOUND

Another natural mineral resource
has developed from northern Utah,
and promises to form the basis of
varied industries. This mineral is
known as elaterite and is a hydro
carbon.
Elaterie has been found in a large
deposit in what is known as the Uin-
tab Basin, southeast of Salt Lake.
1t is something on the order Of as
phaltum, but differs from similar
substances in insolubility in any
