WILL CAUSE TARIFF EMERGENCY One of the main arguments which the republicans will rely on to beat the democrats in the presidential election next year will be the tariff. Before the European war there was a difference of opinion among republicans as to whether the tariff could be made an issue next year. But undoubtedly the European war has created a new situation with respect to protection. To fail to recognize this emergency is mere stubborn blindness. Even democrats who are at heart free-traders admit that the war has created an emergency condition, and that as a practical matter it must be faced. It is not so much the war as the ending of the war that will cause tariff emergence. GROUND WATER NEAR SAN FRANCISCO By the application of geologic methods in an exhaustive investigation of the ground water derived from Alameda-day creek, which forms a part of the supply for San Francisco and the transbay cities, the U.S. geological survey has found specific answers to questions over which engineers and lawyers have wrangled for nearly a generation. This investigation, the results of which have just been published, was made by W. O. Clark, of the survey. Levels were run and many well measurements made by J. H. Forbes of Leland Stanford Junior University.

But undoubtedly the European war has created a new situation with respect to protection. To fail to recognize this emergency is mere stubborn blindness. Even democrats who are at heart freetraders admit that the war has created an emergency condition, and that as a practical matter it must be faced. It is not so much the war as the end of the war that will cause tariff emergency. In the first place there is now running in favor of American manufacturers, a tariff higher than the most ardent protectionist ever dreamed. Many lines have ceased to be manufactured in Europe. Other lines which have been manufactured in the past in Germany and Austria cannot reach the United States. Furthermore, ocean freight rates have risen enormously, in some cases as much as twelve hundred per cent, making a tariff wall which enable the American manufacture to ignore entirely all foreign competition. When the war ends, this artificial tariff wall will disappear suddenly. This sudden disappearance of an artificial tariff will leave the American manufacturer helpless, and when the war does end there should be a statutory tariff to resist the shock. That will be part of the republican argument. The second part of the tariff argument can best be illustrated by the case of dyestuffs. We formerly relied upon Germany to supply us with dyestuffs. Germany cannot now make them, nor ship them. Under these circumstances we turned to the American business man, and said: Why don't you make these dyestuffs? You should do it as a matter of patriotism. Assuming that the American business man accepts the challenge and begins to make dyes, what will happen to him when the war ends and Germany suddenly begins to make and ship dyestuffs. Shall we leave the American business man who helped us out in an emergency to the mercy of this kind of competition?—Collier's Weekly. MARRIAGE LICENSES John C.

How much of the Santa Clara Valley is underlain by water from Alameda creek, a question which affects the riparian rights of local irrigators and in answering which experts have differed widely, is definitely determined, according to the report, by a fault that extends across this part of the valley and, by blocking the buried gravel channels with impervious materials, acts as an effective underground dam, as is shown by an abrupt change in the water level and a totally different response to stream flow on the opposite sides of the fault. This fault is plainly marked by an escapement that faces the mountains and is in some places more than 20 feet high. The stream ways that were beheaded by the uplift are/still visible, though now dry and functionless, and are shown on the map accompanying the report. That the fault is very recent is shown by the interesting fact that in the earthquake of 1868 a house standing directly on the fault line was torn in two and the part nearer the mountains was dropped a foot. The report states that there is little danger, even with heavy pumping, that the area under consideration will be seriously damaged by the encroachment of sea water. The report is entitled Ground water resources of the Niles cone and adjacent areas, California, and is known as Water Supply paper 345-H. The Niles cone paper is one of a series of reports that the survey has published on the ground water resources of California. A few weeks ago a comprehensive paper on the springs of California, by G. A. Waring was issued for free distribution as Water Supply paper 338. Reports are now in preparation on the ground water of all of the Santa Clara Valley, Sacramento Valley, San Jouquin Valley, and San Diego county, and plans are being made to begin similar investigations in the desert areas of San Bernardino and adjacent counties.

Republicans started activity by organizing the Republican Publicity association, which announced its purpose to gather and disseminate information regarding the principles, policies and achievements of the Republican party, and to point out the defects and failures of democracy. The organization was no sooner formed than the Democrats became active, and through former Representative A. Mitchell Palmer of Pennsylvania, soon to assume the office of Chief Justice of the Court of Claims, sent a circular letter to faithful Democrats throughout the country urging contributions to a found for the purpose of interacting with the effects of the Republican Publicity association. It is evident, therefore, that the relative merits of Republican and Democratic policies will be fully and freely discussed in 1915, instead of waiting until the summer of 1916 to submit facts and arguments to American voters. FAIR PLAY The Railroad Commission of the State of California has heard the case involving the rates for GAS SERVICE in the City of Orange and, incidentally, in the whole of Orange County. At this Hearing we claimed: That we have, through the expenditure of large sums of money, collected and brought to every community in Orange County the wonderful natural gas produced in this County which formerly went to waste; That this natural gas is just twice as valuable, volume for volume, as manufactured gas; That the people of Orange County are doing the same work with one-half the volume formerly used; That natural gas has been sold during the past ten months to every city in Orange County at a heavy financial loss to this Company; That a higher minimum monthly charge and a higher rate for the first two thousand cubic feet used are absolutely essential to the financial success of any natural gas business in Orange County. We offered figures and facts which, in our opinion, proved the justness of our claims. The Commission, through its corps of experts, is now carefully investigating the accuracy of our statements. In due time it will announce its opinion and natural gas business in Orange County. We offered figures and facts which, in our opinion, proved the justness of our claims. The Commission, through its corps of experts, is now carefully investigating the accuracy of our statements. In due time it will announce its opinion and establish reasonable rates for NATURAL GAS SERVICE in the City of Orange. The same rates will probably be reasonable for all of Orange County. In the interests of fairness to all concerned, we now ask that the Public and the Press of Orange County withhold judgment on this entire matter until the Railroad Commission has given its opinion upon our claims. Southern Counties Gas Company money, while if we buy at home, we have both the goods and the money. American tourists will get both health and pleasure, and America will keep the $275,000,000. In private enterprise, explanations and excuses don't go. The employer of a traveling salesman doesn't want explanations; he wants orders. The employee who comes back with excuses instead of orders, soon loses his job. The Democratic administration has had many explanations for the business depression that followed its accession to power. First it was psychological, then a state of mind, then finally the European war furnished a plausible excuse. But the American people, like all good business men want public servants who deliver results, not explanations and excuses. AERONAUTICAL COMPETITION With a prize list totaling $100,000 the national aeronautical competition to begin in San Diego July 4, and continues for 101 days will furnish a big feature entertainment for visitors to the exposition.

SOUTHERN FIELD SHOWS GREAT ACTIVITY Wells are Drilling on Many Leases in AERONAUTICAL COMPETITION With a prize list totaling $100,000 the national aeronautical competition to begin in San Diego July 4, and continues for 101 days will furnish a big feature entertainment for visitors to the exposition. This will be the greatest drawing card and the exposition has had and in the competition the most famous civilian and military aviators will engage. Governors of many states have sent letters suggesting that as the competition is principally for the purpose of developing aviators for the militia and carrying the mail, each state can at small cost enter aeroplanes in the competition. One big feature of the competition is that there is a special award of $25,000 to the pilot who makes the best time in a transcontinental flight. A separate division of the competition will be given over to demonstrations of the practicability of carrying mail by aeroplane. Between $5,000 and $10,000 as prizes go in this division. The postoffice department has prepared a schedule of isolated places in certain states where the delivery of mail between points twenty to ninety miles apart now occupies days, but which would require only an hour or two by aeroplane. The principal value of this prize is that it will afford to the post office department the opportunity of determining if the people want their mail delivered promptly will pay between twenty-five and fifty cents to have it delivered by aeroplane. If so, it is urged, aerial mail carrying will support itself and the department can establish lines without further delay, while the machines and aviators employed will form an aerial military reserve. GIVEN SMALL JUDGMENT Instead of getting judgment of that they desired to get in evidence to show that there was ill feeling between Meyer and Rodemeyer because Rodemeyer had not married a daughter of Meyer. The questions, were not allowed. SOUTHERN FIELD SHOWS GREAT ACTIVITY Wells are Drilling on Many Leases in Northern End of County Wells are being drilled on nearly all of the leases in the Fullerton oil fields, including La Habra Velley, Yorba Linda, Brea, North Placentia and other sections. The Standard Oil company is still employing about 400 men in the local fields and has a pay roll of nearly $40,000 a month. This company is finishing a well soon on the Piepenbrink lease. Lawrence Kuhn, who has been drilling in the Fullerton fields for several years, will leave this week to act as foreman for an oil company in India. He has accepted a three-year position in the foreign field at $250 a month and all expenses. There seems to be no decrease in pressure of gas in the great gasser on the Murphy lease. The local gas company expects to get from 3,000-4,000 to 4,000,000 cubic feet of gas from this well daily to supply new contracts recently made in this county. In the Brea district a number of new wells are being drilled by the Union and other companies. Rigs have been completed for five new wells. The Birch company has eight producing wells; the Brea Canyon Oil company, twenty-five; the Columbia Oil company, three; Fullerton Oil company, nine; the General Petroleum company, seven.

Owing to the meager rainfall in parts of Wyoming, successful agriculture, which is becoming more and more recognized as the ultimate basis of the state's prosperity, depends on irrigation, and successful irrigation in turn hinges on a knowledge of the dependable water supply. To obtain this knowledge records of stream flow are necessary not only for normal years but for years of exceptional low water—years that must be provided for by storage if irrigation is to yield the maximum results. As a result of the cooperation between the survey and the state of Wyoming, 61 gaging or measuring stations are to be maintained on the streams of the state. H. McPhee has brought suit against E. P.
