Progress and Poverty.

A lesson which time has taught the
world, says the Mining Industry, is that
human progress can be measured by
human prosperity Poverty leads 10
the degradation Of nations; prosperity,
to their education. advancement and
civilization. The arts and sciences
never flourish where nations are POOR
and the masses in poverty.
1t teaches another thing, too, which
is that national prosperity and mining
progress are indissolubiy united. The
purely agricultural nations fall behind
in the race. Egypt, once the light OF
civilization, is the degraded football OF
all the world. 1t had no mining re-
sources, since it ceased to draw from
other parts of Africa. Spain was once
the metallic treasure house Of the world
At the same time it was mistress Of the
world. With the exhaustion Of her
greatest mineral wealth she fell into de-
cay. Portugal did the same. England
was built up on her mineral wealth of
iron, coal, tin and copper. Before she
utilized them she was scarcely more
than an association Of warning feudal
tribes. The actual and accurate gague
of national prosperity is advancement
in mining and metallurgy.
Alabama made more progress in popu-
lation, wealth and prosperity in the few
years since she began to develop her
iron and coal resources than she made
in the previous fifty years. The State
or nation which is most active in the
development of its mineral resources,
and which possess the richest ones, will
surely stand in the front rank. 1t Is
criminal for nation to refuse to do all
that is possible to develop them. Good
policy demands that helping hand, so
far as can be consistently, should be ex-
tended to the mining industry. Its
prosperity is the prosperity of all. The
man who disinterestedly, honestly and
intelligently works for Its benefit is
more of benefit to his country than all
the politicians whoever blessed or cursed
it.
Measured by the rule of prosperity
depending upon mineral wealth rightly
developed, what may we not expect Of
the glorious future in store for every
State and Territory from the eastern
Rocky Mountains foothills to the Paci-
fic? They are the worlds storehouse
OF iron, coal, copper. silver, gold and the
rarer metals; they are. too, as q neces-
sary result, the storehouse Of more
energy, enterprise, intelligence and
prosperity than can be founnd else
where on American soil, in corporation
to population. and will continue 80.

A notable moral reformation in Dead
wood is very clearly indicated in the
following which we clip from recent
issue Of the Lead Tribune at is with
great pleasure tina. the Tribune notes
that period of reformation has over
taken Deadwood. With Al Swearingen

ganized, the Choral union IAN organiza-
tion with a moral tendency meeting
with success, and with frequent notices
in her papers ofgamblers and drunkards
actually being arrested for disorderly
conduct, II is impossible to overlook the
fact that there is a moral reform boom
in Deadwood that is worthy of notice
and will be welcomed with great satis-
faction by all her neighbors."

Hills press, TO whom a facetiuos refer

most positive terms, his unwavering

unfortunately placed ourself, and make

open admission of his sincerity, and the
further avowal that, our allegation,
facetiously expressed, was merely in

cede to be as able, from his standpoint,

ours. Now, Cohzette. here is foeman

The Yankton Press and Dakotian has
placed the name Of Hon. Henry NJ
Teller, of Colorado, at its head as its
presidential choice, and in so doing
claims that, it is merely giving emphasis
TO a belief that he is we'll equipped,
under existing public sentiment upon
the most important issue ever brought
before the American people, for that
leadership which must fall upon some
man for the campaign Of 1896. Con.
Timing the Press says: The coming
presidential contest will be fought out
between the forces Of bimetallism and
monometallsm. Party considerations
will, for the time, disappear, as they did
in 1864. when the unionism Of republi
canism and the unionism of democracy
united upon Abraham Lincoln. Now,
as then, the issue is Of SO momentous a
character that it rises above partisan
ship. There must come leader in
whom full confidence will be reposed
and to him the ballots of bimetallism
will be thrown. Senator Teller has
record upon which he can stand in 9
! contest of this nature. He has been the
uncompromising advocate of the double
standard propositing, in congress and
ont OF congress, ever since the issue as
sumed form. He is man of capacity
in public affairs. demonstrated through
service as cabinet officer Among
those devoted to the cause of bimetal-
lism he stands pre-eminent and among
the statemen of the land he is the peer
OF the best. So the Press and Dakotan
nails his name to the mast with full
confidence that its readers will endorse
its suggestion.

Business Of an important character
was transacted, providing for the early

and the erection Of mill in the early
future for the reduction Of ores. The
outlook for the success Of the enterprise
is said to be exceptionally fattering.

The custom mill is running full time
on ore from the Bismarck mine. which
of late averages 81 in gold per ton. 1t
is crushed to i0-mesh, and from forty to
fifty tons per day are treated The ore
is hauled by FIVE four-horse teams from
the mine to the mill, at an expense Of
sixty-fve cents per ton. The teams
make the ronnd trip in about an hour
and half, and haul from two to two
and half tons each trip. The ore is
mined from big open cut on the top Of
a high mountain, and run out in cars on
a trestle some sixty feet high, then
dumped into chute leading 10 an ore

value of $500 in gold per ton. The re-
suit was so surprising that free milling
test of one and a half pounds of the pulp
was made, and from this amount 4el

to almost the same amount as the assay
