LEGITIMATE MINING.
The Giant Strides II Made Last Year
Capital Becoming Enlightened on the
Subject.

The Giant Strides II Made Last Year
Capital Becoming Enlightened on the
Subject.
The West Shore for January.l
Legitimate mining, as distinguished
from stock gambling, made giant
strides during the past year. Mil
lions Of dollars were invested in min
ing properties, chiefly quartz, for the
sole purpose of working the mines,
and not the gullible public. One of
the most hopeful signs of the dawping
era of common-sense in mining mat
tsrs, is the utter failure, in Portland,
of an effort to conduct q stock ex-
change. Following, as it did, upon
the heels of similar failure in Hell.
ena, it emphasizes the fact that the
people generally have opened their
eyes to the sham and fictitious value
of mining stocks, such as are listed
in these exchanges, and have learned
the broad distinction between invest
ments in MINING STOCKS and invest
ments in MINES. When the last stock
board has closed its doors for lack of
investors, or had them closed by law,
as they should be-whether the stock
dealt in be mining, railroad, or tele
graph-then the country may con-
graduate itself upon being relieved
of the greatest leech its genuine bust
ness has to support. 1t is extremely
gratifying to observe this great stream
of capital flowing into our mining
districts, to flow out again, in a few
years, in still greater volume, in the
form of gold, silver and copper bars.
Last year the United States was
credited with more mineral than has
ever been produced, in one year, by
any other country in the world, and
the Indications are that we will CON
tinue to lead all the nations of the
earth in our mineral output for many
years to come. The new districts be-
ing opened up, and the many heavy
investments being made, are bringing
the Northwest rapidly to the front in
mining matters, and drawing atten-
ton away from the older mining re
gions on the south. There is no bet
ter field in the world for the invest
ment of money in Legitimate mining
enterprises, and there is no safer bust
ness than mining, provided it be con.
Quoted with prudence aud business
SaQacity. One great trouble with
mining enterprises is, that men who
know nothing Of the business, prac-
tically, undertake to manage them.
Many a good property has been
wrecked by boards Of directors, igno-
raut superintendents, and theoretical
"experts." On the contrary, few
practical miners have ever failed when
backed by sufficient capital, and per-
mitted to use their experience aud
judgment, unhampered by restrictions.
These facts, also, are becoming rec.
oguized by the Investing public, and
the result is that the first care of a
new mining company, generally, is to
secure a competent and experienced
miner tor a superintendent. In view
OF these several changes for the bet.
ter, in the popular estimation of the
nature and needs of mining, We may
confidently look for great aud sue
cessful activity In the mines Of the
Northwest for many years to come.

IT IS becoming more apparent that the
republicans cannot much longer stave
off reduction of the present tariff. Con-
gresham Anderson of Iowa lately told
his party associates great many unpal-
atable truths while speaking on the tar
if question. He declared his belief that
American industries were now in a con-
dition to invite competition with the
world and that it was unjust ''to tax one
man to support the business Of another"
He charged the republicans with making
no attempt to meet the reduction of taxes
demanded by the people. They spend
their time in finding fault with those
who are making an honest effort to re-
duce taxation"

EMPEROR Frederick died at II o'clock
on Friday last. He was in his 57th year.
In him Germany lost man who loved
the people and who would do much to
hberalize the government had his life
been spared. The Germans have reason
to regret his death not only because of
his loss to them but because of the char
acter of his successor. Emperor Fred
erick would have secured peace to Eu-
rope. The French people trusted him.
He was a good soldier but he loved peace
because he knew it was best for his sub
jects. He was the trusted adviser of his
father for years and did not oppose Bis
marck's iron rule.

SENATOR SAWYER has kept Wisconsin
well in line for the republican party by
the liberal use of money. He is now be-
ing solicited by republican clubs in other
states to lend the influence Of his pocket
book for their benefit. A club organized
in Baltimore was named after Sawyer and
he was so informed by the secretary who
also asked for a contribution of 50. The
money was sent together with PROPOSE
ton that if the club were given some
other name, IS more would be sent. The
terms were accepted and after the money
was received the senator was informed
that the club by luminous vote decided
to rechristen the club Sawyer"

INGALLS, has an article in the North
American Review on Cleveland which is
nothing but a scurrilous outpouring.
There should be some decency in poll
tics and The Review should in self-respect
suppress the rabid utterances of this. po-
Gtical crank: There is no good comes of
personal abuse and the President of the
United States, unless guilty of some in
famous crime, should be treated with the
decency due to man. The republican
members Of the senate owe it to them
selves and to the body of which they are
members, to ask ingalls, to resign as
presiding officer.

SENATOR EDMUNDs of the Judiciary
Committee wrote Nj. w. Fuller telling
him of certain charges made against him,
and asking whether the appointee of
President Cleveland to the supreme bench
had anything to say, stating at the time
that the name of the person making the
charges could not be divulged Fuller
replied with dignity that he could not
notice anonymous aspersions but asked
permission to make public the charges.

gagged in pretty small business.

THE Milwaukee Sentinel says the re-
publicans are mot likely to allow the
issue of civil service reform to beignored"
OF course not while the democratic party
is in power. The republican party will
assume a virtue when there is no occa-
sion for its exercise. The hypocritical as
sumption of virtue in civil service mat
ters by republican organs is amusing
The Sentinel must believe its readers are
as foolish as it is part1sanly dishonest
when it speaks of republicans being IA
vorable to civil service reform.

The supreme court of Michigan has
set aside another temperance law enact
ed by the legislature Of that state, which
provided that no brewer or liquor dealer
could be accepted on the bond of an APP
plicant for a saloon license. The decis-
ion in its spirit would indicate that the
court would also set aside a prohibitory
amendment to the constitution, though
the United States supreme court has
declared such an amendment constitu-
ilnal.

EMPEROR WILLIAM of Germany sue
ceeds his father but is not heir to that
affection with which the people regarded
the dead emperor. The German people
will not soon forget the impotence of
William to succeed to the throne though
the life of his father stood in the way OF
his ambition. Besides he looks to the
army as the chief factor of Germany's
greatness. What European countries
want, and Germany particularly, is the
cultivation Of the arts of peace The
new Emperor IS a monomaniac on mill
tary supremacy. This feeling is an OBJ
stacle to progress.

IT is said there is not a brewery or
saloon now in Sioux City, Iowa, and not
a liquor dealer in Office. This is not the
work of prohibition but because OF the
murder of Haddock. The anti-prohibi-
ton society of this state may learn much
from the state of affairs in Sioux City.
Prohibition is aided more by their efforts
than by the prohibitionists.

THE protectionists find it difficult to
keep wholly in the background the real
object of protection. The American
laborer is the person for whom they are
ostensibly concerned but inadvertently,
at times, they show how hypocritical
these professions are. Guenther In argu-
ing for the retention of the tax on lumber
says that the higher wages paid III the
United States induce Canadians to work
in the lumber woods of the United States.
It would seem then, that the tax on lum-
Der which the man pays who builds
house in this country benefits the Cana
dian laborer. He Is admitted free of duty
to compete with our laborer. But Can
adian lumber is not admitted because 1t
would compete with our home product.
And still this state Of affairs, contradic-
tory us it seems, is because the laborer
must be protected. There is no paradox
in physics which can match this econo-
mic one
