A Field In which There Is Room For

The Enterprise in q well-timed article on
mining, says there are as many men en-
gagged in agriculture in the United States
as can profitably pursue that occupation
until the market for the products Of the
soil can be extended. Congress should
bear this fact in mind, and should at the
same time remember that, besides the
thousands Of idle men now in the country,
the number will probably be swelled by
1000 people p r month for the coming
twelve months. Something must be done
for these people, something direct and I'M
mediate. And it is a matter for the men
OF wealth to consider as well as for legisla-
tors. Wealth is Of no use unless it is pro-
tected, and there is no protection against
crowds of starving and desperate men.
There is a field open for all, large enough
for all, broad enough for all, ample enough
to exert the energies OF as many as can
work. That field is mining. 1t should be
the work of Government to open cheap
communication with the mining districts
which are still remote, and the wealthy men
all over the Union should attack the mines
and make work for those who need it. And
every miner who is given work helps to
IIhhC u MAI Ct " u Rio1'Ns s"t AAh
and for the wares of the manufacturer. 1t
is the only field not yet in great part
explored, the only one the product of which
conflicts with the interests of no man, but
rather, inasmuch as it makes the world
richer, enhances the welfare Of the world.
Despite the carping Of knaves and i'm
beetles, il is the industry which has always
given wealth and prominence to this coast,
and to-day the prosperity Of the coast de-
ponds more upon the work of the miner
than upon all other causes combined. And
u; :ning is no longer the hazardous business
that it formerly was. The signs which in
sure pcrmanency to mines are we'll known,
and the most rebellious ores are now made
to yield what is precious in them. If the
poor are to be given employment, that EN-
ployment must come through opening
roads and mines. Every blow struck upon
a drill in the mountains adds to the man.
sions being npreared in the cities, makes
the foundry blast brighter and gives to the
forge a new fame. 1t helps the mechanic
and the farm r hundreds Of miles away,
becau7e white other men toll to lay up
wealth the miner tolls to create it.

4 Narrow Escapc

The Tuscarora Times Rerie,c says that
about half-past ten o'clock, on Monday
hoisting works Of the Independence mine,
by which three men narrowly escaped with
their lives. BY some means a box of giant
powder in the shaft house was ignitcd. and
an explosion took place that shook every
building in town. Strange to say, not a
single man was hurt. though all were stand
ing within a few feet of the box. The en-
tirn front Of the shaft house was destroyed.
a,.,. the only wonder is that every man was
u0 blown to atoms.

The San Francisco Bulietin contains an
excellent article on the above subject, and
says that one may look over many Of these
Journals for years without learning any
thing Of the resources of parts Of the country
where every fact ought to be set down by
the home paper. There are half a dozen
country papers in California which have
dealt specially with home resources. As
for the rest. they are generally barren of
that kind Of information which ought to be
the most prominent feature of the local
journal. There are still great areas be-
tween the Rocky Mountains and the Pa
citic Ocean of which we know little or moth
ing. There are parts of the State of Nevada
which have hardly been explored as yet.
For years to come the local newspaper must
be the principal source of information. The
papers which rave the most enterprise in
exploring and writing up the resources of
their special fields will, in the long run,
find tina; enterprise of this kind has been
appreciated at home, and sometimes
abroad.

Am Exucrimantni SCHOOL for Mines

In 1865, says the Lyon County Times,
Congress granted the State of Nevada 90,-
900 acres of land as an endowment for an
experimental School Of Mines. After
several extensions of the time in which the
school was to have been establish, in 1877
the State was granted W years more. At
the expiration of the term, to-wit. in 1888,
should u State fail to perform its part of
the implied contract, the land or IN
obtained from the sale Of the same, will re-
vert to the national government. Already,
in 1877, $40, 600 worth of those lands have
been disposed Of. The question therefore
arises, shall this money and valuable land
revert to the national government? Or,
shall our Legislature, by a little judicious
management, retain this desirable property?
1t seems to US that there can be no doubt
as to the answer. A law should be passed
at nee establishing a school of mines on a
limited scale. The scope of its usefulness
can be enlarged subsequently as circum-
stances require, and in a few years the
school will have grown into an institution
which will be of enormous benefit to our
leading industry.

nPTrInNs nP TIE PRESS.

The newspapers comment very Sc
verely on the action Of the rabble Of
Jacksonville who could find no other
way Of answering Mrs. Duniway's
charges than tie cowardly attempt at
mob violence. We give few extracts
to show the sentiment Of the people at
the eowardly outrage. The following Is
from the AstoridH:
The Jncksonvillians deserve severe censure
for their vulgar treatment OF Mrs. Duniway 90
that place lately. But She is able 90 handle
them as they deserve 10 be handled, 'wiinoui
gloves" let her DO 10.
The Hnlsboro Independent condemns
the proceeding in these words /:
SOUTHERN OREGON CHry ,LEY.-A crowd OF
brave JacksouviIllans burned Mrs. A. j. Duni-
way in emey, and subsequently, when she
appeared on the street, threw eggs at her, one
or Two OF which hit her person. The onense
given the people OF Jacksonville by Mrs Dun
iway was "a letter 20 the NEW NoErHwEsr, In
which she spoke very severely OF some of It's
citizens; but the means OF retaliation used
was both cowardly and brutal, and viii be an
enduring stigma upon the character OF the
people Of the place, and their unmauiy action
deserves q righteous rebute at the hands OF
the entire state press.
This is the Walla Walla Statesman's
opinion:
THERE WE'RE GIANTS IS THOSE DAls-"-A
telegraphic dispatch informs us that Mrs.
Duniway. OF the Portland NEW NoErHwEsr,
was burned in enigy at Jacksonville. The
dispatch was signed Committee" and from
this 60 is evident that there are yet in Jack
sonvilIe q class Of men who are so lost 90 ali
I sense OF honor, Geceucy, and courage, as actu-
ally % glory iu deed that Digger Indian
would scorn even 20 contemplate. They may
have felt aggrieved at 5Irs. Duniway's strict
ures, which may or may not have been truei
/ at any rate, their recent action shows only too
plainly that they deserved all they received
and more too. The action will forever be q
T blot upon the hitherto fair fame Of JACKSON
Vile. There was time in early days when
even % look darkIy 90 % woman would have
. been avenged by hundred honest miners
truly, "tlere were giants ln those days.
The crying outrage will rebound tc
the benefit Of the cause for which Mrs
Duuiway is struggling. The few ex-
tracts given show that a majority of th'
citizens of the State are possessed O.
sufficient intelligence TO understand
right from wrong, aud sufficient man
hood to acknowledge it.

CURING INTBMPBRANOB.

'The notorious Mrs. Smallden," the
unfortunate creature who Is a hopeless
sot, was most brutally beaten a few days
ago by her husband, Jack Mcdonald,
whom she married two years ago. The
daily papers state that his patience in
trying to reform her gave out, and he
beat her brutally while in violent pas
sion, jumping upon aud kicking her
PROSTATE body. He was let Of with a
fine Of $50, because he was only prose-
cuted for assault and battery, and that
is the extent Of the penalty allowed by
law.
1t was kind Of Mcdonald to marry a
woman OF the known failings OF Mrs.
Smallden with the hope Of reforming
the poor creatures faults, aud the ruth
less law should not put a damper on
such philanthropic eudeavors. His ef-
forts were SO successful that the poor
victim will not be able to get drunk for
some time to eome-in fact, she may
never be able to leave the hospital until
carried in hearse. How different Mr..
Jack McDonald's treatment of his
spouse was from those cruel wives OF
drunken consorts who everlastingly beg
and plead with their husbands to quit
the cursed cup. His action stands as an
enduring monument to the superior in
telligence and consideration Of men over
women, aud furnishes another evidence
that the mind Of man is stronger than
that Of woman-not TO say anything
Of heels and fists. IN order that the gen.
tlemen may not be too severely taxed
in their endeavors to cure the greal
curse Of intemperance, so rampant ia
the city, it would be well to provide al
asylum for inebriates.
