"WHAT Victoria owes to her golc
fields" says the Australian MInht
STANDARD, is ''strikingly indicated in the
statistical returns recently laid before
parliament. 1t is shown that since the
Melbourne mint was opened. IN 1877
gold to the value of no less Jhsn S23i,
464,OOO has been purchased, This gol'
was of course, not all won in Victoria
but as a set-off against this We have the
enormous quantities of gold wh -ch must
have been sent out of the colony IN the
palmy days of alluvial diggings, lor
prior to the establishment OF the mint
and also a certain amount OF gold thai
still goes past the local mint and over
the seas Fifty millions sterling OF
money, represented by mineral products
means more to a community, aud espec-
ially TO the great mass OF the people
than a similar amount Of wealth de,
rived from any other source. No other
industry shows SO high proportionate
expenditure upon labor, and none other
can show anything like the same results
IN the way Of distributing wealth.
This last remark Of our Australian con
temporary applies at least with equa
force or pertinency to the precious met
ais won from the mines of gold and sIl
YER here sin the United .States-a fac
that cannot be intelligently left out O
any proper economic study relative tC

uaily ignored at our commercial cer

MINING DURING THE PAST
YEAR.

According TO the Mining Record tn
year 1891 proved fairly good one for
the business of mining on the Pacific
coast. the output of bullion, estimated
at sI30,0O0,OO1 being the largest ever
made. OF this production California
made about S13,OO0,O0O; Montana s2S,>
100000: Colorado, 530,000.0O; Idaho,
Sr4.O00,OO0; Washington, sI,000n00; Or
egon, 81, 100000; Alaska, SSO0,0O0; British
Columbia. S5O0,O0O; South Dakota 8,
100000; Wyoming, 100000; New Mex
ico 81 10000; Utah, 5l0,000,000; Heyada.
sl0,OOO,OOO; Arizona, 56,501,0G0.
OF the bullion turned out in Califor-
MIA, Wyoming, Oregon, Dakota and
British Colum bia about 80 per cent con-
sisted of gold, balance mostly silver.
The Nevada bulli n was made up of
about 60 per cent. silver, 30 per cent.
gold, while that of Utah Eas nearly all
silver, with spciDkling of lead an gold
Arizona's product consisted of about
90 per cent. gold, balance divided nearly
equally between silver and copper. The
bullion OF Idaho and Washington was
composed Of about 30 per cent gold
remainder silver and lead with little
copper. The Montana bullion consisted
of about 100000 gold, Sl6,O00,0OO sill,
Yer and the rest copper, but little lead
being produced mere, while that Of Col
orado was subdivided nearly as follows;
100000 gold, s20,O00OOO silver, bal
ence lead with little copper.
1t is generally thought that the bull
lion product :of the Pacific coast for the
present year will exceed that of 1891 by
six or seven million dollars, and probab-
ly more; this increase being due to
the opening up of new mines and the
many improvements that are being in
troduced into the business. Should the
efforts now being made to bring about a
resumption of hydraulic mining in Cal
ifornia be crowned with success, great
ly enlarged output of gold in this state
may be confidently counted upon.

Probably Well Named.

ave need martial law" said the
Barbarian of May %, "and it is the
duty of Governor Wiley to exercise
his power and order the United
States troops to that section of the
country where the civil law lies
helpless and abused" The state
ments here quoted were made in q
discourse upon the existing troubles
between the mine owners and min
ers' union in the Ceur d'Alene
country, and induce US to think
that paper has been well named.
We fear it is barbarian in fact as
we'll as in name. Without taking
sides for against the miners or the
owners, which, without being better
informed in relation to this unfor-
tunate misunderstanding, we could
not afford to do, we do say emphat-
ically that martial law is not needed
at any place in the Ceur d'Alene
region. The law may have and
doubtless has been wilfully and
openly violated and even defed,
but it does not follow from this that
martial law is needed or should be
demanded. Moreover, as everyone
knows who knows anything about
the nature and spirit of our govern
ment, to attempt to declare and
establish martial law under exist
ing circumstances would be such a
wanton violation of law as would
call for immediate resistance. Gov
eminent troops can only be en-
ployed to enforce the laws of the
state after the power of the state
has been exhausted, and failed !;
and then they are not to be ordered
out by the governor of the state
but by the President of the United
States, which functionary is not
empowered to resort to such ex-
IRENE measures except when in
formed by the governor of the state
that, owing to invasion, rebellion or
other cause, the power of the state
is inadequate to enforce the law, and
that the aid of the United States is
required.
What Idaho needs is efficient,
capable and honest state officials,
and not martial law. With such
state officials Idaho is able to en-
force her laws and without federal
Intervention or aid, and to pretend
that she is not is to bring disgrace
upon her in the states east Of the
Rockies, where the prevalent opin-
ion already is that our people, and
all far western people are little bet
ter than savages at best. Certainly
courtesy to our own people and a
due respect for the reputation of
our state abroad should restrain
newspapers from the publication of
llbels upon her when those libels
are based upon perversion of facts
and ignorance Of law.

ESCAPE IMPOSSIBLE.
The Institute Was Perfect Trap
fOr-Death.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 22.-The surgical
institute was veritable fretrap. The
stairways were narrow, the halls dark
and the whole structure labyrinth.
Near the Illinois street front of the
main building was stairway which
made turn midway between two
floors, and at that point there was a
landing. From that landing to the top
step of the lower was distance of two
and half feet. In speaking of that
place fireman remarked: "How
could they expect cripples to get up or
down those stairS?"
In some parts of the building the
stairs were SO old and worn out that
extra boards had been nailed oil the
steps. The halls and stairs in some
places were so much of a puzzle that it
was hard for person to tell which was
which. At one point four flights of
stairs were in bunch.
In the small rooms throughout the
building were from one to four beds. all
occupied by patients, many of whom
were perfectly helpless. When they be-
came aware of their peril, their fright
was awful. They became frantic in
their efforts to reach places of safety.
Every effort was made by the police and
ambulance forces to rescue the Gagged
unfortunates, and acts of heroism and
daring were performed by the men that
should perpetuate their memories.
The flames ate up the entire interior
of the building, and when the floors
gave way and fell to the bottom there
was no telling how many people were
killed. Rooms on the third ana fourth
floors of the main building and nearest
the alley were the scenes OF the grcc.r=
est fatalities. In one room vare two
women, both Of whh1u berished. In

and stood quietly while the rope was

minutes by StrangulatiOn.

GAVE UP IN DESPAIR.
Bodies Found in Places Appar-
emily Safe.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 22.-AS soon as
the Railways had been sufficiently
cleared of the smoke to permit an in
seen es were developed. In one room on
the third floor four victims were found
dead, kneeIing in the attitude of prayer.
The windows in the room were up, but
the occupants had apparently made no
efforts to escape nor appeal for rescue.
The sitting smoke had overtaken them.
and seeing no avenue of escape, they
evidently became resigned to their
faNe.
In a room on the second floor a man
was found in bed dead. The smoke had
found its way into the room slowly. and
he was gradually overcome, expiring
without struggle. Further along the
hallway young man was found sitting
beside all open window, his dead body
leaning forward.
There seemed to be no good reason
for this loss of life, as all those who ap-
peared at the windows were quickly
saved. Although the occupants were
pied, many of them became so frantic
that they lost all self-control and almost
invited death by their action. They
would rush to window, cast their
eyes below and realizing that a leap was
almost certain death, retreated at once
into the room and faced the result deS-
perately.
The daughter of Mrs. Lazarus, of Chi
cagO, who had grabbed her child during
the fire and leaped from window on
the third floor, was still living at Z
O'clock this evening. The mother is
dead and the little girls legs are both
broken. She can hardly survive.
Early this morning ghOuls began their
work among the ruins. and no small
amount of jewelry was pilfred by them.
There was total insurance of S5l, SOC
on the surgical institute, buildings and
furniture and surgical supplies. The
exact loss cannot be estimated, but 1t
will aggregate at least $4,000.
