treasury the same should be paid in their
numerical order, and not otherwise.

Another Lost Mine.

The Alpine Avalanche has tho follow
ing information that will interest all
mining people, and good many others:
Bob Baker and Gov. Roberts have
found the philosophers stone; that is
they have re-discovered a fabulously rich
silver mine, formerly worked by the
Spar!as fs, when Texas belonged to
Spain. The exact locality is as yet secret,
but there Is no doubt that they have
found the mine. The mine and surround
ings bear evidence of having been worked
years ago in crude way.
There we're twenty-five tanned hides
thoroughly preserved found in the mine.
A specimen of the ore shows it to be
pure lead silver. They also found some
bars of silver that had been apparently
melted by the miners. There has long
been legend in this section of the coun-
try that many years before the civil war,
party of Spaniards who were working
silver mine had all been murdered by the
Indians, and all trace of the location Of
the mine lost. The mine is in Peeos
county, about fifty miles east from this
place. This is no fake, but straight
goods.

POSSIBLE CHANGES.

New Buildings in Contamination
on Fort and King Streets.
By the Australia next Tuesday, there
will arrive in Honolulu the two sons
of the late James w. Austin, of Bos-
ton. These young men are heirs to
valuable real. estate here Their in
terests include the premises occupied
by E. o. Hall & Son and most of the
property opposite the Gazette office
extending from the Metropolitan Meat
Market to the lane back of Chisholm s
harness shop.
The business of the young men in
Honolulu will be to convey the prop
erty, perhaps by a long lease, to w.
Mulch. Thereupon the latter will, as
soon as possible, begin the construc-
ton of fine business block on the
tract. 1t will be modelled on the lines
of the Waverly Block at the corner of
Hotel and Bethel streets, with a fancy
front. Plans for the building were
drawn about year ago.
The lot at the corner, occupied by
Mr. Chisholm, is under the control
of Mr.. r. A. Douglas. That gentle
man has planned a building for it on
the lines of the purposed Camp
bell block to go in above it. Both of
these plans await the action of the
Government with respect to street
widening. Mr.. Douglas has agreed TO
accept the same number of feet in the
rear on King street as are taken from
the Fort street front, which would
leave his lot the same size as now.
1nls compromise may be the basis of
the deal to be effected.
The meaning of all this is that con-
tinuation of splendid stone business
blocks, extending from Wichman's on
Fort street, down to the corner and
around to the premises of the Metro
politan Meat Co. on King street will
be begin and perhaps finished during
the present year.
MeSsrs. Castle & Cooke again have
before them the matter of erecting a
handsome and more cOmmodious store
building. The present structure is far
too small to accommodate the great
volume of business carried on by The
concern, and the only way out of the
difficulty is to build. AS yet plans are
but indefinitely formed. 1t has been
decided, however, that the new build
ing will be at least three stories high,
and that it will cover the lot now &C
cupied by the business house. In all
probability the plans will soon be per-
fected, soon after which work will be-
gin.

sFIxING" THE RATIO.
A Question Regarding the Govern
ment Control of Money.

The Bankers Magazine for March
finds the origin of our present troubles
about silver in the demand that the
ratio OF its value to gold shall be deter
mined by the government. 1t is, how
ever, no proper part of the duty of the
government to try to fix the ratio of
values of the two metals.
Being" says the Bankers Maya
zine, commodities as we'll as money,
and being commodities before and after
they are money, and being money sim
ply and only because they are commodi-
ties, and being commodities because
they have recognized and intrinsic value
independent of any action of govern
ment, and even in the absence of gov
ernnent, and being therefore severaIly
subject to all the laws of commodities,
the law of variable supply and demand
and value among others, and these vari-
atoms not being uniform for both met
ais, it is impossible that government
can ever fix the ratio of their value.
IF, however, it should be insisted
that it is the function and duty Of gov
eminent to TRY to) fix the ratio of their
values, it would seem to fellow as a
logical consequence that, since their
relative value depends absolutely on the
relative supply of the two metals it is
the primary and plain duty of govern
ment TO fix (regulate) their supply by
controlling and operating the gold and
silver mines, the sources of their pro-
duction. 1t should do both things or
neither, and it is preferable that it
should do neither. 1t is folly to expect
it 10 do the former without doing the
latter"
This is the truth of the matter in
nutshell. Unless the government first
acquires all the mines in the world and
decides how much silver and how much
gold are to be produced yearly, it is inn
possible to maintain a ratio after it is
fixed" France fixed it 156 times,
but it would not stay fixed, and France
has at length abandoned the effort. The
United States has also tried the expert
ment several times without success. 1t
is time the theorists we're letting the
matter alone.

The existing plethora of corn. re-

occasioned much speculation as 10 its
fuel value. There Is such diversit Of
opinion and 50 little actual knowledge
regarding the proftableness Of burn

desirable TO conduct comparative test

teal mechanics. and the amount of
water evaporated by the burning of

The test lasted 9is hours. and 1929
pounds of corn and cob were consumed.
The next day the same boiler was heat
ed with screened Rock Springs nut coal.
and the amount of water evapoyated
was recorded.
The data thus obtained show that
one pound of coal evaporated 10 times
as much water as one pound of corn.
In other words. 10 times as much heat
was liberated in burning one pound
of coal as in burning one pound of corn.
Several calorimeter tests were made
which agreed very closely with these
results.

is the same as that used in the ex-
pertinent, and when corn is selling at
