BUSINESS HAS CONSCIENCE.

The business side of life in the East is
entitled to a long credit mark IN Its
favor. Some time ago man named
Kavanaugh was indicted in Chicago Tor
attempting to bride jurors in the Cronln
case. Being confronted with his accusers
he confessed his crime, but thus lar has
not disclosed his principals. 1t now de-
velops that though Kavanaugh, prior, to
his arrest, was in good commercial
business with partners, since the discov.
ery of his infamy the business world and
the people generally have refused to have
ANYTHING more to do with the Kavanaugh
firm. 1t has been "boycotted, so to
speak, until it has been forced to appeal
to the courts to have its accounts settled,
the firm dissolved and kavanaugh's name
legally eliminated from any connection
with the business. Of course, the limo.
cent partners are the greatest sufferers, but
the people would not buy OF firm that
divided any of its profits with the wretch
who attempted to poison the fount OF
Justice. This is gratifying testimony
that the sterling men of the country not
only will not pass such crimes idly by,
but will punish them by withdrawal OF
patronage from the offenders. In fact
'business has conscience" after all.
The above has been copied by perhaps
half the papers of the country without
comment. 1t is the sillest bosh. As a
matter of course the firm, one of whose
members was mixed up with the Cronin
case, and therefore liable to criminal
prosecution, would be hardly dealt with
by other business establishments, not be-
cause of their conscience, but on ac-
count Of the fact that the criminal prose-
cution of partner would, necessarily,
injure, if not cripple, the firm. Those
who had been extending credits to the
firm scented probability of a loss in the
near future and Immediately, without
warning, with that heartless, remorseless,
CONSCIOUSNESS quickness and character
istics of 'business methods" withdrew
those credits and left the firm to perish
the innocent with the guilty. We dc

Manufacturers using Nevada woods
complain of the tar which they find on
the ends of the staple. 1t gives them a
great deal OF trouble, and is more diff
cult to handle than burrs. Unless the
practice of tarring fleece is discontinued,
Nevada will loose its high reputation
among manufacturers. Ii the woods Of
Nevada once get the reputation of being
troublesome on account of tar on the

The following simple method for pros
pectors to ascertain the amount of gold
contained in quartz is from the San
Francisco Mining Review:
First, weigh the quartz dry. Then
weigh in water, the quartz suspended by
d thread. Next divide the dry weight
by the difference between wet and dry
adding decimals il. necessary Subtract
from this result the weight of quartz
usually 26O or 26l for free gold, but 265
to go if filled with sulphurets). Null
tiply this result by the weight OF gold
viz; 1913. Then multiply this amount
by the result Of subtraction Of wet from
dry. The result will be, after pointing
off all decimals that have been added
the exact weight in gold.

II has como to be common thing 10

who have bankrupted their own affairs,
and yet where the public treasury is at
