MONTANA MINES.
What Mr.. Bailey Has to Say
About Them.
The Hills and Mountains of the Great West are
Merely Scratched So Far
Wealth UntOId.

Mr.. Bailey, mining man from Mon
tana, is at the Walker.
Asked last evening how the mines of
of Montana were doing, he said:
''Spendidly. Never better than last
year"
what was your output in precious
metals in Montana in 1902"
''ln gold, according to Wells, Fargo g.
Co.'s reports, s., 764, 1l6; silver S}2, $50, $780,
Idaho and Colorado lead US in gold, while
Montana leads all others in silver''
How about dividends! Do your mines
show the usual amount of dividends in 1890
compared with other yearsP'
'Yes, more. The Montana mines paid
out in dividends in 1880, S9,04S, 1880 far
as published to the world, yet there are a
number of good properties held by close
corporations, and their dividends are not
reported to the public
What is your opinion about mines and
mining in the future in the western states
and territories!'
II think that mining throughout the en-
tire west is in its infancy; that the noun
tains have not even been scratched yet,
and that hundreds of years after you and l
are dead and buried, young man, there will.
be rich mines discovered and profitably
worked"
rs there much placer or hydraulic min
ing done in Montanap'
"Oh, yes. There are thousands and hun
dreds of thousands of acres of rich placer
grounds in Montana to be yet worked !
might say the same about Idaho, Utah, Col
orado and Arizona"
MIR. Bailey, there is great difference
of opinion in the minds of people generally
about the gold taken out of the ground.
some think that fully three fourths comes
from quartz mines. What is your idea of
this!''
"Well, they are greatly mistaken. Prof
Rossiter w. Raymond, who is the United
States commissioner on mining statistics,
and the best authority in this country saws
that in the last thirty years the United
States has added to tue wealth of the world
from her gold fields $1,000, 900, 000; that OF
this amount 81 200, 100000 has been taken
from placer mines, or in other
words, four-fifths has come from
placer and one fifth from quartz mines.
BY the way" said Mr.. Bailey, 'would you
like to see some Montana placer gold
Then follow me and / will show you, but

Mr.. Jones, for my wealth.

HARRYR. BROWNIES COMBINATION CHECK
SYSTEM OF ACCOUNTS

Consists of a book of original entry which
shows a daily balance of the actual bust
ness transacted without reference to the
ledger or ledgers. BY adopting this sys-
tenn a firm has all the advantage of a trial
balance every day, instead of having to
wait for balance sheet taken from the
ledger at the end of the month 1t saves
time labor and locates an error without
checking the ledger. 1t is endorsed by
every experienced bookkeeper who has
examined into its merits. The system NAV
be seen in actual practice at my Office.

The Fad Of Kinks Next the Sky L Likely to
Spread Somewhat
Philadelphia Tmes.l
The statement recently published that the
Manhattan Athletic Club, of New York,
had turned its roof summer garden into
skating rink, with real ice, seems TO afford
an additional idea for Increasing the popu-
larity of the Schuylkill Navy Athletic
Club. II remember rightly, the floor of
that buildings room is also of asphalt, and
1t could easily be flooded, and it is.of ample
dimensions to permit the members to enjoy
a turn on their steel runners with q comfort
able consciousness that warm, cozY room
waited them below.
What an improvement on a long, cold
ride in the street cars, q walk in the bleak
sir and then no right to enter building ex-
cept as q boat1cfub member, or on the inxi-
tatlon of one. The idea has proved a sue
cess in New Yosk, and is worth trial here.

Patrolman Watson, Of the Second police

the discovery of the body of q man sus-
pended from one Of the picksts in the
schoolhouSe fsnes at Grover and Christian

An examination showed that the man was
breathing heavily. He had attempted to
climb the fence to find place TO lie down,
and had fallen and hooked himself in the
back. He was so drunk that he could not
stand, and when arraigned before Magistrate
Kane gave his name as Walker Wild, of the
rear OF 1854 Alter street. He was sent to
prison for six hours.

Philadelphia Can't Get Over It

sravelv asserts the PhiIadrInb,a Inoarirer
1t was a citizen of Haddonfeld who had not
been to town for a few years and celebrated
the event. He got into traction car to go
to West Philadelphia. and after riding a
few squares, turned to fellow passenger
and hazarded the opinion:
Say. old man, I'm pretty full, amt II"
"Yes, my friend, you seem to be loaded
to the muzzle."
"That's So" added the New Jersey gen.
tleman. sT'm SO full 1 can't see the length

'No one suggested your name to me. 1

"Yes, there was something in that, too,

"Oh, certainly, it is one of the pleasant
things about these commissions that the
members do take their wives along. re-
'membered what pleasant time you gave
me one day that spent at your home in
Springfield and the drive we took in the
country, and I thought I would return your
hospitality"

General Malone remarks that when he

human being, he wanted to go out under the

FREE silver means that the pro.

He is not getting it now under
the present limited coinage act. 1t
is the government who is dishonest
in this matter, and is pocketing the
extra 20 cents, and robbing the man
who owns the bullion. Let the sill
yer dollar be made full weight, and
free coinage will give 100 cents in
the dollar.

DOUBLE STANDARD.

The free coinage of silver, should
not mean the flooding of the country
with silver dollars containing out 80
cents OH the dollar. This would be
making 80 cents worth of silver the
equal OF the full weight gold dollar.
This would mean depreciation Of
values. What we want is an honest
silver dollar, full weight, then it Can
take its chances with gold and pass
on it's intrinsic merit, and not be-
cause the government says you must
take 80 cents for one dollar. Give
us honest, full weight, and the free
coinage OF silver cannot depress
business and burt values. A double
standard of value will rednce the
worlds standard OF 100 cents to 80
cents.
The government has no right TO
buy bullion ana coin it at its pleas
ure, making 20 per cent of the man
who mines it. 1t refuses to buy
bullion because the government has
much as it wants, and then not coin
the silver for the man who has
spent his money legitimately in
mining it. The government has
made the silver dollar of deficient
weight. 1t is its duty to require it
be made full weight and then coin
it tree as it does gold.
