DR.. Chas. b. Reyes, State Geologist
for the State of Missouri, who has just
issued his report of the Missouri Geo.
logical Survey, has the following to
say in behalf of Missouri GRANTEES:
1.-The GRANTEES of Southeastern Mis-.
souri, are of unusual interest and great
commercial value, for the reason that
they are the only crystalline rocks oc-
curing in the Mississippi Valley be-
tween central Arkansas and Lake Su-
perior, and between the Appalachians
and the Rocky Mountains. The de-
| velopment of these areas is therefore
of special Importance on account OF
the wide territory they are capable OF
supplying with high grade OF build
| ing and ornamental stone. The great
est importance of the Missouri Granite
is OF determining the comparative val
ne for. CONSTITUTIONAL material" His
report further states that all tests and
examinations go to show that thus. for
all kinds of building, CONSTITUTIONAL
and ornamental work, the GRANTEES OF
Missouri are unsurpassed by any in the
| world.

Deluded or Dishonest.

1t is common observation that men
may have much ability and much
knowledge OF certain kinds, with the
faculty of ready expression which is so
useful to politicians and public men,
without having the power of clear and
logical reasoning. They may have per-
versities Of intellect and defects of
moral sense, which make them less
capable OF reaching sound conclusions
than the plain people," who need only
to understand u subject to be about
right in their judgment Of it. Fanatics
like Bland, OF Missouri, are generally
sincere, but irrational. In brains that
are strong but not wholly sound delu-
sion takes a deeper hold than in those
that are weaker but more nearly nor
NAL. Are these able and experienced
men, who formed the nucleus Of the
Washington silver convention and were
responsible for the fiasco In which 1t
resulted, still deluded on the subject OF
free Coinage and It's effects? The only
alternative supposition is that they are
not honest, and are seeking to derive
some advantage FOR themselves from a
policy that would surely be disastrous
to the country.

from the fact that the methods applied
