HALE. Jt is not at all probable that the next House will have a majority favorable to the free coinage of silver at a ratio, of. 10 to 1. When becomes a demonstrated fact that Wiere is no danger of this country adopting the silver standard In conducting the business of the country, prosperity will come again and, with lower taxes on the necessaries of life. every kind of business will boom again.

Along no inconsiderable portion of its course the Rio Grande constitutes the international boundary between the United Suites and Until within, a few years the Hio Grande served the purposes of a boundary line very creditably ami satisfactorily, but recently the settlers in Colorado and New Mexico (away vip stream) have taken so much water out of the river for the purposes of irrigation liiatthe old boundary line becomes obliterated the "dry season, and this has made'so much (rouble for the Mexicans that t.lieir government claims t.he United StJit.es $22,000,000 darnages. The circumstances upon which they base'Mils Heavy claim Tor damages may be briefly summed up as follows: Fi-oni t.he neighborhood of El Paso, extending about 00 miles down, the river, there is a valley about 10 miles wide, and since the river hits got into the habit of poing dry every summer it haa cut many different and widely diverging channels with the advent of flood water.

In this way the international boundary has been practically obliterated as far as this valley, 15 miles wide a-nd 90 miles long, is concerned. This has led to endlessoomplica.tdonsas to national jurisdiction, and finally to i condition of utter lawlessness. In iddi'tion to this, elr.im that or some MO years they been cul- ivatinff the lands of this valley on their of the boundary which were mad-! fertile and productive by iTrign- tion from the waters of the Kio Grande, rat since the river has been systematically and continuously robbed of its waters by the American settlers of Colorado and New Mexico just at the season when the water was needed for rrisation, this valley below El Paso become a sterile desert, absolutely for Hgricnltural purposes. They claim that the Mexicans have a irior claim to the water of the Rio Grande, ns they were using it for purposes of -Irrigation 200 years ago. but now they have bec.n robbed not only of- the water, tlie international boundary line, and, indirectly, of law nnd order in the valley referred to.

In view of all this they up a claim for $22,000.000 d-ainagee, but they also propose the terms of compromise. The proposa.1 is that the United State! should build what has lately figured the news of the day as the "international dam." This dam will ijl built) be located a.bout two and oflthaH above El Paso, where the heights.which inclose the canyon-like valley of the Rio Grande just above El Paso converge so nearlv that a dam 600 feet lone will connect "them. Thin dam, to serve the purpose for wbich.it been designed, should be 600 feet long and about .0 feet high, and will, when completed, cost about 000,000. Suchadam will, it is estimated, create an immense reservoir IS miles long by four nules wide or about four times as large aa any artificial reservoir now in the existence. This will hold all the surplus water of the KIo Grande at flood time, and this accumulation not only be ample for irrigation landa in the valley below it on both aides of the boundary, but furnish supply of water sufficient to hold the channel of tte river by a moderate but continuous flow all through the dry season.

In this way the demands of the Mexicans for can be ratified, the international boundary maintained, law tuid order restored in that valley below El Paso, and the lands on the American as well as the Mexican of the valley furntehed with an ample supply of water for purposee of Express. modest 1 hat he has to color i't in order to establish its identity, called npain last evening.
