INTEGRITY OF LAWYERS.


 The San Francisco Post. in discuss ing the subject of "The Importance of Honest Lawyers, well sass: That the profession of the law is so int mately connected with the welfare of the peo- pie that it is the duty of the state to look after it's integrity and honor. No man should be admitted to the bar who is not gentleman-a man of educa- ton and refinement. Per contra, all lawyers who, after admission, develop lack of character and respect for the profession should be disbarred.
 The law ought to establish courts of discipline, presided over by the select members of the profession, to whom might be submitted questions involving the integrity of attorneys. It would not do to permit the machinery of these courts to be set in motion by clients, for clients, as a general thing rob their attorneys unmereifaIly. But some system might be devised by which a standard of morals could be es- abolished for lawyers and all men kept out of the profession who do not con form to that standard. The founda- tions of every state rest upon the in tegrity of it's bar. The lawyers make the laws and administer them. It is to them that everybody looks for counsel and advice. They are the intellectual flower of every community. What is more important than that they should be men of the highest honor, character intelligence and integrity.

THE OLD vuLTuRE MINE.
A Mining Man Gives His Opinion Of tho
 Great Producer.
From tho rheanix fyazc,t.. :,

tProm me fhcanix Gaxctte.l
 George W. TreadwelI, who is in the city from California is tie man who mt up the eighty-stamp mill on.the vulture mine, which ia its time made millions for the owners. Mir. Treadwell says that the property is far from being worked out, and that the only reason that it cannot be worked now with profit is the fact that there is no wood within thirty miles of the mine. The mine is down but about two hundred feet, and there is evidence taat there are thousands of tons of high grade ere in the mine.
 The water problem is another serious drawback, as the mine in it's early days piped water from Brill's place on the lIassayampa, to Seymour, distance of about nine miles, and from there to the mine, about fifteen miles.
 With the expenditure of a little money the wood ond water obstacles could be overcome. About sixteen miles from the mine there is a small box canyon in the Hassayampa river. There is never less than 800 inches of water in the river at any time of the year, and as there is fall of about twenty-five feet to the mile at this point, a turbine wheel could be placed in the river at a convenient point: which wonld be susii- cient to generate power enounh to run au electrical dynamo, aud the power could easily be transmitted to the mine. There is plenty of water on the lower levels of the mine which could be brought to the surface by pump oper- ated by electricity, which would also be su uficient to run the stamp mill. No wood in this case would be necessary, ani thus enc of the principal handi- caps to the working of tbe mine would be eliminated.
 If this could be done, and it is en- tirely practicable, the Vulture would be soon in the front rank of producers, and as about three hundred men would necessarily be employed in the mine, it s easy to see where Phoenix would be benefited.

SHUT OUT THE SCUM.

Commissioner-General of 1mmigra- ton Powderly says with wisdom that ''there was & time when the United States could afford refuge to the people of the world, but it was before the incomers became oppressors, and when the tide of immigration to this land of refuge was not tide Of re fuse" The American republic is loaded up with more foreign dead wood thau it can assimilatc in cen tury; ir fact, the element that has been reaching these shores Of late years has been absolutely of non assimilative character to deplorably large degree, and that influx should be stopped. We still have room for the intelligent, peaceable, law-abiding peo- pie of other countries, if they come in reasonable numbers, but for the ignorant, besotted and criminal scum Of Europe there is no welcome under the flag of stars. Their coming here should be peremptorily and effectively stopped until those alr@@dy here have -sae'>ea ss.s gallows or died in jail, as many thousands of them are doing from year to year. As Mr. Powderly says, Europe should be caused to lake care of her own anarchists. leav- ing us free to battle with our native criminals as best we may without burdening this country with an ele- ment that brings strife, discord and social unrest to the peril of eonstitu- tional liberty. The party that shall put n its platform the plank, "shut out the scum" will gain the feaIty of this people, even should other of it's tenets be even as unpopular as the sound money plank that made the recent Plutocratic platform byword and 8 reporoach. We have succeeded in shutting ont the Chinese; now let us ward from our shores an element that is as much worse than tue Mongolian as the Mongclian is inferior to the nabobs of Murray Hill.

5Esssachusetfs Offers q House-BuiId.
 ing Contest as Novelty.
 The latest novelty in races is a house building race. The only one so far run seems to have come out a dead heat. Recently a real estate company auc- toned eff a number of lots in Western avenue, Westfeld, Mass, and with the idea of booming the neighborhood of- fered prizes. Five hundred dollars to the first, S3e0 to the second, was offered the builders of new houses. One of the ct purchasers, a contractor named Rivers, began at once to build. The work was rot hurried at first, as there was apparently no competitor. One ap- peared, however, four days after work had commenced.
 4 Mrs. Lee was the owner, and night ard day men worked on her building. Rivers responded with double gangs of men, and for several days the race went on without a pause until both houses were finished almost exactly together. The Rivers house, which was built in nine days, has nine rooms averaging + feet square, is trimmed with hard wood, is wired for electric bells, has a furnace and running water, and is completely painted outside as we'll as papered and decorated inside The Lee house is not so complete, lacking fur mace and gas fixtures, but 1t was com pleted in five days, thus breaking all records SO far as known Both sides claim the $500 prize. About 20 men were employed on each building and every device known to up-to-date car pentry was employed. Both houses are attractive in appearance and show no sign of haste in construction. During the race The houses were visited by hun dreds of people, who cheered on the worlImen in the novel contest.-N. Y. World.

THE reports from the Kiondyke remind us very much of two young men who leased a mine in Music mountain several years ago. When they were stoping ore in the mine they believed it would go fully fifty ounces in gold to the ton, when it went on the dump they valued it at thirty ounces; when it was assorted its value had decreased to twenty ounces; on the way to Blackberry it's value con- tinued to fall until ten ounces was thought to be the right thing, and when loaded into the car and on the sway to the sample at Kingman they were hoping against hope that they might get. their sacks hack. The boat leaves Dawson City with $3,00e, ,000 at St. Michael it has shrunk to $l ,500,- GOO; at Unalaslza, s1 900, ,0O0 covers the golden cargo and when the steamer reaches the Golden Gate few weary miners are landed on the dock with enough dust to pay for few weeks ard.- Kingman Miner.

Tie greatest financial genius of the Rothschild family, though theI have been many of great talent, was Nsthan Mayer, of the second generation, who established the house of N. M. Rochs- child 6 Co.,, in IT9S, in London. He flew to the stars and groveled in the mud for money. He welcomed all transactions, big or little, wherewith to turn the bankers penny. He was the most daring speculator of his time on the Stock Exchange, and the most successful. He had carrierpigeons and fast-sailing boats to bring him the earliest news from the war eenters of Europe, and so help him to manipulate stocks. He followed Wellington's army to Waterloo in person, and had relays of the swiftest horses, and a fast yaght lying in the harbor at Ostend. So he arrived at the London Stock Exchange, after the battle, 12 hours ahead of any public announcement of tho victory, and made e5, ,o00, ,O00 by one Of the most tremendous series of Epecuiations in history. In 1910, when the Duke of Wellington, then commanding in Spain, drew on the English Government for 6, ,000, 600, and the English Treasury was short, Nathan bought the drafts at big discount and at once sent the money. The stories about this .e- markable man are almost endless, and show how strangely he was alike equal to the most tremendous schemes and the pettiest tricks ofayariee. Harper's Round Table.
