THE sELFlsHNEss OF WEALTH.

C9ur GAlene Barbarian
A mining camp is afflicted, and
probably to greater extent than
any community, with despica-
BILE greed on the part of it's wealthy
men. The Minneapolis Times
speaks truthfully and to the point
on this subject when it says:
THE COMMUNITY CURSE.
The curlish spirit, which clutches everything
despicabie for the liberation Of fairmind led
people. The man who disregards the claims
upon Upon him by community In which and out Of
SO small or so dead that he feels no pride in his
own city nor any ambition to maintain its enter
prises or promote its prosperity, is probably
should, nevertheless, be made to realize that he
has earned them anu that they are unanimously
accorded him.
And the remarks are commended
by the Barbarian to those men of
means in the Ceur d'Alenes whose
sole aim seems to be to come here,
to get what they can and then to
away, all the while selfishly indif-
ferent to the community to which
they owe their success. There is
an old saying attributed to Epam-
inondas which runs: "And 10,
there were certain rich and upright
men who were dumb and needless
and perverse in their greediness;
and 10, again, a brick house fell on
them, and they tumbled, and were
no longer upright"
The Barbarian, like the Lord,
sometimes speaks in parallels.

had for practice with the cruisers

count of lack Of accommodations

Benjamin f. Butler, IL an interview

forcible against the punishment OF

Proceeding was barbarous one and
nnjustitjable by any law In peace or
war, and If II Is not reprobated so
fully aud thoroughly by public
sentiment that it will never occur
again, it will do much to disorgan-
ize our state militia, because no man
will go out voluntarily to perform
duty where such punishments may
follow If he disagrees with his COL
oDeI iu political, social, moral or
religious sentiments. General But
]er added that Colonel Streator
e,s0nld be tried by military com
mission Of the national government
and his commission taken from him.
Then he should be tried by a jury
for cruel assault and Imprisoned or

Why Dry Land Is Increasing,

An essential cause of increase of
dry land is the decrease of the ocean
Itself in consequence of infiltration
of water through the crust of the
earth, which is kind of porous
mass into which the liquid element
percolates by innumerable assures,
taking possession of the depths and
directing itself slowly toward the
center as the internal fire diminishes
and the-crusts crack open in conse.
quence. 1t is understood that the
activity of volcanoes and MANY
earthquakes is largely due to this
inevitable penetration of the water.
which internal heat transforms into
vapor under pressure. Some geolo-
glsts think that the primitive ocean
has already diminished in this wav
