In view OF the developments recently made In
regard to the workings OF the detective branch OF
Che police department in Washington, wouldn't 1t
be well enough for some of the other cities Of the
country to overhaul their police systems little?
1t would seem that the components OF the
system here have been about three parts rascality
and one part ineficiency; and It might turn out
that some of our sister cities better OF In
this respect than Washington. Indeed, there is
reason to believe that the scamps in the service
here must have had accomplices ON the force of
other places in order to successfully carry out
their rascally games Perhaps a thorough and
concerted shaking up all along the line might be
q good thing. When one part OF column Is de-
moralted IS the time for a general attack

IT is stated that the st. Louis Globe.
Democrat claims that the bullion product
OF this country in the year 1852, amount.
ing to about 800, 600, added nothing to
the wealth OF the country, because it has
required labor OF equal value to produce
that amount. The Mining Review does
not take this view of it,and comments upon
the above as follows: While i. might b.
difficult to prove the exactuess ofany state.
ment With sufficient certainty to use it as
an argument, there is as god authority
for bringing the same charge against any
industry or enterprise, with the advantage
every time in iavor of the result of mining
operations, from the fact that even If II
costs, as has been often unjustly asserted
81 for every 81 extracted from the mines
the money expended is not DESTROYED, and
the result produced is understandable, i'm.
perishsble and permanent wealth added to
the channels OF business.
-" A bushel OF wheat or pound of cotton
which may have cost their value in labor
to produce, can serve but one purpose and
perform but one act When the bread is
consumed and the cotton DESTROYED an
equal amount Of labor must be expended
to supply their place with another hound.
A pound OF gold or silver produced at any
cost and coined into money will perform its
work times without number, and continue
for hundred years to fill its place and
mission, in every land and cline, and is
forever, in every form and shape, portion
OF the real wealth and power of people and
nation"
