KEEP THE AMERICAN SYSTEM

The brightest sign that has appear
ed in the rather gloomy prospect of
American railways is the appeal of
Vice President Doak of the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen to the Ma
tional Chamber of Commerce.
Mr.. Doak takes open ground against
the socialistic system or transporta-
ton, called in this country govern
ment ownership. He realizes what it
would mean and does mean wherever
it is in force, that is, an army Of pub
lie jobholders far larger than is nee
essary for the efficient operation of
the roads and heavy burden on the
n-jobholding people Of the country.
That is American common sense
and foresight. There are other lead
ers Of railway organizations who are
socialistic and believe in rationale
ing" the roads. We believe the rank
and file Of the brotherhoods, save for
the younger, less experienced and less
thoughtful members, are not deceived
by the nationalistic arguments and
realize that It would lead them down
and not up. But they should make
their Judgment felt by choosing lead

The same duty is upon the shout

There is no class in he country that

than farmers by the breaking down

ed as a new project until approved
projects such as the American Falls,
are completed.
at is our belief that the Dubois
project can be, as it should be, made
part of the American Falls develop
ment to the extent, at least, Of one OF
these units. The existing contract
calls for a 100000 acre foot reser-
voir at American Falls, with estim-
ates Of additions to approximate the
| 1900 900 acre foot unit. The Dubois
project was contemplated as part Of
that absorption Of the American Falls
storage above the 100000 ere feet.
at is our opinion, and our hope,
that every effort will be put forth to
secure enough water from American
Falls for one unit of the Dubois pro-
ject; and we believe it can be done
with proper cooperation.
,, 1--WE believe both the Dubois units
feasible, but the existing conditions
argue strongly for concentrating eff
| fort at this time on the unit that can
be served from Jackson Lake.
"While we do not desire to unduly
raise popular hopes, we do not hes
itate to state that the outlook for at
least one unit of the Dubois project
is very good.
eff the Dubois project can be tied
into the American Falls reservoir it
should mean participation by it in
American Falls alottments.
"The people of the entire upper
Snake river valley should get behind
this important development. Unity
on the part of those people will have
distinct bearing at this time. And
it should be exhibited at once"

THE DUBOIS PROJECTS

The Idaho Reclamation association
through its managing director, Guy
Flenner, has issued the following bull
letin relative to the Dubois project:
"This association has continued, to
the best of its ability, its tnvestiga-
ton Of the Dubois project and the poe
sibilities of securing water therefore
The Importance of the project, not
only to the upper Snake river valley
but to Idaho is so manifest and SO
large as to Justify every effort to
bring It to . successful consumation
"The project embraces a wonderful
body Of land, roughly 100000 acres
susceptible to irrigation in two units,
one from Island Park and the other
from Jackson Lake through a trade
of storage water rights from the Am
erican Falls reservoir to Jackson
Lake. These units are about equal
as to area.
'Our investigation leaves some
doubt as to immediate results respect
ing the Island Park storage being
supplied to one of the 100000 acre
units. The difficulty about Island
Park storage is that It may be delay

Wednesday evening the Sea Gull
Girls met at the home Of Mrs. Chas.
Baker and had slumber party. The
girls met at Mrs. Bakers at eight
O'Clock. After the usual meeting a
large bonfire was built, after which
the girls romped and played games
around the straw stack until mid
night, at which time they retired to
bed. Some slept on top OF the hay
stack, others at the foot. 1t was a
very beautiful night and the girls
enjoyed their slumber very much.
They were up at day break. While
some played games, others prepared
breakfast, consisting of cereal, bacon
and eggs and potatoes roasted in the
ashes of the camp fire, cocoa, cakes,
bread and butter and raspberry jam.
Mrs Ernest Reynolds kindly sent the
girls the blackberry jam. After
breakfast, songs were sung around
the camp fire and all enjoyed them
selves immensely. Mrs. Baker took
pictures in several different ways and
the girls pronounced the occasion one
of the best times Of their lives. Mrs.

THE FASCINATION
OF THE UNKNOWN

At the bottom of every mans
heart lies the desire to discover or
explore. AS long as humanity en-
dures it will thrill to the tales of adj
venture and hardship in unknown re-
gions. Columbus sighting land, Bal
boa staring at the Pacific from his
Darien peak, Stanley threading the
African jungles, Peary at the North
Pole, are universal heroes. To such
of victory pure and unalloyed which
no successful warrior or statesman
ever felt What the warrior or states
man achieves today tomorrow may
destroy, but the discoveries triumphs
are concrete and immutable.
The thing is as true of scientific as
of geographical exploration. In no
branch of science has research es-
tablished a greater monument than in
electricity. That mysterious force
possesses inherent elements of inter-
est to those with the capacity for
analysis or vision because it is so all
pervading yet physically so intang-
ible. Few are capable of grasping
the work of Faraday, Maxwell or
Kelvin except through it's adaptation
to engineering mechanism, yet all
render these men upstinted honor.
Had we the proper perspective to
recognize them, there are equally
worthy living investigators who are
seeking the unknown, and often find
ing it, in the secluded research labor
atories of great manufacturing estab-
lishments and in the quiet halls Of
our institutions Of learning. To these
men too frequently we render no
homage, but rather dismiss them and
their work as theoretical or imprac-
ticable and even scoff at their results
because they have no apparent appH-
cation to utilitarian purposes. It
would be much more fitting to con-
cede to these explorers Of the un-
known their place as leaders in the
profession who are doing the work
that really makes for an advance in
our art. Let us encourage and honor
those who build for future genera
tons.
