Principle that stream channel attains most probable state that must fulfill necessary hydraulic laws, but in addition, fulfills its degree of freedom by tendency to equal distribution among velocity, depth, width, and slope, is tested by use of 3 examples; another example explores accommodation of river channel to changing discharge; last example is that of river free to adjust its profile, velocities, depths, and widths to accommodate downstream increase in discharge.
