ORE REDUCTION.
ACTIVITY Among Minin3 Men in Expert
menting With New Methods.

ACTIVITY Among Mining Men in Expert.
menting With New Methods.
1t is evident that the question of
ore reduction is becoming more and
more study with our mining men.
The Salt Lake Exchange Journal says
its successful solution is bound to
cause renewed activity in our mining
camps, and to result in the erection
of reduction works of some kind in
every canyon and every mining Dis
trio. The day is not far distant, we
believe, when every mine owner will
be able to treat his own ores at trifiin2
cost, thus doing away with freight
rates and heavy smelling and reduc-
ton charges. When that time comes
mining will become more popular
than it now is, and men owning good
properties will not be forced TO part
with them at sacrifice simply be-
cause they cannot break down anG
market their ores except at loss.
We are glad, therefore, to note this
activity in experimenting with new
methods for the reduction Of ores, as
it cannot but prove beneficial to tine
mining industry.

They Are Anxious Over the Recent Convic-
tions Under the Mushback Act.
1t is not unlikely that the conviction IN Rich
mond last week of a bookmaker who was en-
gagged i'll running pool room there under the
commission plan may be the means Of closing
the two pool rooms engaged in the same bust
ness at Jackson City, at the Virginia end Of the
Long bridge. The Richmond pool room and
the two at Jackson City pursue the same system
that employed by the pool rooms in New
York city, that Of receiving the money Of tho
bettors and transmitting il to the tracks charg-
ing small commission for doing 50. OF course
the means pursued by them is but subterfuge,
having but one object-the evasion Of the law.
1t Is needless TO state, too, that the money re-
ceived is not in reality transmitted to the
tracks.
The Richmond court, as stated in THE STAR,
convicted the man under a complaint author
lied by what is known as the Mushback act en-
acted at the recent session Of the Virginia legis
lature. The defendant appealed, and it is not
likely that the case will be heard by the court of
appeals for some time. The proprietors of the
rooms at Jackson City profess to feel confident
that this court will not sustain the law, and say
that they will continue their business until q
decision adverse to their contentious rendered
The higher courts in New York have upheld the
commission plan, but the Virginia authorities
claim that the Virginia and New York laws on
the subject are entirely different. and con-
fdently assert that the Mushback act will be
sustained. While the Jackson City bookies
will continue business there until
driven out, it is said that they
are already making preparations to do business
elsewhere. just where they will locate has not
been definitely decided, although it is thought
that they will establish themselves in Maryland
As near the city possible. The Maryland
laws allow pool selling on q track during .

land they would. to gain the protection Of the
law, do a. is now done near Baltimore, main
tain such races and make books on all outside
race meetings. While they could, under the
present law, establish their business in the Dis
trict one mile from the city limit, it is hardly
probable that they will pursue such q course.
