THERE is nn o nil n. -in cc before the council to put buiiiplt.v-bunipa In the Ht roots for the restraint of those nuto drlMTB who are the vic tims of speed madness. In nil prob ability there Is little c-liam-c thnt the ordinance will become the law. That it would be UTerthe, there Is no doujitj but thnt It Is necessary Is quite another matter. Thoro Is only one rational tlilnv to do with respect to speed mnilncss, and that Is to Insist on careful driv ing, and to ponallxe the person who doon not drive carefully. Wo have law. .to that effect, plenty of It, but Ihp tumble Is that no Imvo not po llro and court olllclals who will en force It. This brings us to the fact that the proposed bumps are to he In the wrong place. Where we need to administer th jolt Is where the law falls through laxity, the Indifference, or the pusil lanimity of the police or the court official. It may be that hoiiio day wo will devise the proper bump to suit the situation, and that the law we have will be fairly put to the test. Portland T'logrnin.

In mythology. Father Nile was the son of Oceanus, the god of water, who was born of the union or Heaven and Farth. Tho early Creeks be llevod tho earth to he n flat circle eiicoinpassed by n river porpetually floating around It, and this river was Oceanus, the source or all rivers and waters In tho world. Tl'i-fi'gh all tVe cent'ii-'os to Co western world the Nile had been an absorbing problem: tho Kgyptlans alone or all peoples, ancient or mod ern, have had no curiosity at nil about the Nile.
