DAM BUILDERS !.
WI[lsAITRAcTa
S|GHTsEERs

The scenery at Boulder canyon is
far more startling than what is had,
from the upper gorge Of the Colo
RADIO canyon SO extensively patron
lied by tourists entering from Flag
staff, in the opinion of Fred b.
Mechling of the power company,
who visited the dam site during his
recent trip ito Riverside. The gen.
erale opinion Of engineers, he says,
| is that the dam will not be built at
Boulder canyon owing to the physi-
cal difficulties, but the construction
will be authorised in Black canyon,
la few miles lower down the river
where firm granite foundation has
been established by the reclamation
engineers in making soundings. and
testing the solidity- of the canyon
walls. Sixty men are employed.
During the construction period
Mr.. Mechlin believes the site will
become one Of the most popular
tourist attractions and that thou
sands will make their first visit to
Nevada for the purpose Of gazing
upon the big project under way.
Mr.. Mechling was accompanied on
his visit to the canyon by Melville
Gillett, an Ohio capitalist who is at
Las Vegas seeking investment OPP
portunities. He has already organ
lied company with $26, 200, 900
capital to install q hydro-electric
plant at Bullshead canyon below
the big dam, which will not interfere
with the distribution Of the stream.

A MONTANA MENTAL GIANT


There is high romance in the history Of almost any
invention There is an inefable fascination in the
picture of Edison beneath the midnight lamp with his
first crude talking machine. The story of Fulton is
one of which defeat and victory to exis-
tence somewhere included and the experiments of
the young Marconi read like fiction. Stephenson was
ordinarily regarded in his time something of re-
incarnated wizard
Why are not business inventions similarly romantic
in birth? For example, here is man in Missoula,
Montana, who has thought up a simply astonishing
scheme Malorder houses sell much merchandise in
the district These goods ordered from catalogues
Therefore, ingenious citizen conceived the plan of
having children admitted to movies free provided they
presented mailorder catalogue at the door Then
these ponderous volumes destroyed and presently
became rare are the bison that formerly roamed
the district and the local merchant waxed exceedingly
prosperous
The federal trade commission has just condemned
the practice. The commission is concerned only with
its niqutes business Most of are intrigued with
the identity of the business Edison who originated the
perfectly gorgeous idea What is his name where is
his laboratory, how many years of defeat preceded
success, did he feel exutant when he finally struck
the One Great Scheme? The go-getter magazines
should go get the gentleman's story

GENERAL ALLEN ON GERMANS

How easy it is for erroneous impression to gain
nationwide circulation better illustrated than
in the belief current in this country for months that
the Germans welcomed American soldiers of the oc-
cupational forces with open General Harry T.
Allen, commander of the Yankee army on the Rhine,
says that while the demonstration of the civil popula
ton their departure unique in the history of
such Incidents they naturally looked upon troops
as interopers who had no business there.
The task of American officers and men, he says was
almost difficult that of their French and British
associates. The German population possibly felt a
little less animosity toward troops than toward
those of the other nations but it necessary for
soldiers to exercise the greatest tact in what
obviously difficult situation. And the world knows
how the Americans acquitted themselves
Another point made by General Allen is that the
Germans people will never acknowledge that they
in the wrong in the They do realize that
they beaten but they believe that defeat in
righteous cause. In the present occupation of the
Ruhr they see "a continuance of the world with
different weapons" They have not yet attained repre-
sentative government Their government has been
acting in way to gain the respect of other nations
1t has been seeking to evade its just obligations 1t
has been hand-inglove with elements that do
to be working for the best interests of Germany.
We be glad that the attitude of own gov
eminent throughout, including its final act in with
drawing troops from the Rhine has been absolutely
correct and consistent. The nation debt of
gratitude to General Allen and his for worthly
unfolding Americas reputation in that trying time.

The st. Patrick's dance given at

The tariff revision bill now is
virtually in shape for submissions
to the Democratic caucus of the
house, though still subject to a
smoothing out process, says Wash
ington press dispatch. The Demo-
cratic majority of the house COM
mittee on ways and means voted
Tuesday to make raw wool dutiable
at is per cent ad valorem, with
substantial reductions iu the pres
ent rates on manufactures of wool,
much along the lines Of the pre-
vious Democratic wool measures of
the last congress. This victory of
the protectionists over the free
raw wool advocates was the Gull
mination Of lively contest in COM
mittee. The present law imposes a
duty of IL cents a pound on raw
wool which the house bill of the last
congress would have changed to an
ad valore of 20 per cent, a re-
duction figured to represent ap-
proximately cut from AZ to 20 per
cent ad valorem. In the committee,
meats were put on the free list as
they were in the house bill of the
last congress and cattle were left
on the dutiable list.
Both houses of the 26th session
Of the Nevada legislature adjourned
