There will probably be more prospect ing done in the mountains, foothill and desert regions of California during the coming summer than has been the case Tor many years, says the San Francisco Examiner. Last summer the number was more than doubled over the previous year, and there will be still further in crease this season. Most of these new men will be inexperienced, but 1t IS one of the strange features of the business that they seem to stand almost as good a chance as the old hands. In fact, they will work hard at places the experienced hand would pass by. One of the dltficul ties prospectors find in these days IS that so much land in mining regions is held by agricultural locators, who object to permitting any prospecting. No man has a right to go upon such lands without permission of the owners. It will be well for prospectors to make inquiry, as to whether the lands they are work lUR Ou are n6lO pll'dIO VI not. If they are. then it is best to make arrangements with the owner, for if mines are found, they do not belong to the prospector, but to the owner of the land, unless some agreement to the con, trary has been made. Such agreements are often made on the basis ot an interest or royalty Not only newer regions, but older ones, will be pretty thoroughly prospected the coming season. In fact, many prefer to stick to old districts, where, if they find anything worth hay ing, there are custom mills and other facilities. In the newer sections of the state, such as the southern desert re, gIons, unless mine is found which pays at once on the surface it takes some time to realize anything out of it. The whole country will be we'll run over doubtless, but there are still plenty of claims to be found, and if the prospector does not find one he can get hold of plenty of un- developed prospects, which only need labor to be turned into mines.

Deafness cGnnot De Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deaf ness is caused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube When this tube is inh4med you have a rumblIng sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed. deafness is the result, and unless the in f1ammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever, nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inf1amed con. dition of the mucous surfaces.

CANOvAs's ASSASSINATION.

The assassination OF Senor Canovas,
the Spanish prime minister, evidently has
no political significance. No party in
Spain was privy to it or melted it in any
way. The murderer was an italian, q
member of an Anarchist gang, and
struck at Canoyas simply as the represen'
tatiye head of established government.
There is no good reason for believing that
the murder of Canovas will produce any
greater effect in Spain than did the muir
der of Carnot in France. Neither is it
probable that it will have much effect
upon the position of Spain toward Cuba.
All parties in that country profess to be
bitterly hostile to any policy that will de-
taeh Cuba from the mother country, and
though Canovas's policy toward the
island was criticized by the Liberals, the
criticism was devoted chiefly to its in.
effectiveness in reducing the Cuban reb-
els to subjeotion. Should the Liberals
succeed to power we question If they
would grant any more liberal terms to the
Cuban rebels than the Conservatives, OF
whom Canovas was the head. Popular
feeling is doubtless very strong in Spain
against the making of any substantial
concessions to the rebels, and the Liberal
leaders would hardly dare defy it, even
if they were disposed to do so. Probably
the chief effect of Canovas's S assassination
will be to stiffen up such autocrats as
the Czar of Russia and the Emperor OF
Germany and bring about in those coun-
tries new measures directed against pop
ular liberty. The anarchist assassin is
the worst enemy popular liberty has, and
every time he draws his dagger and aims
a blow against the head of a government
he strikes at popular liberty as WELL

We have yet to find any defence of
Judge Jackson's injunction restrain
ing Debs from melting the employees of
the Monongah Coal Company to strike or
interfering in any manner whatever,
either by word or deed, in the company S
affairs. "An individual corporation, %
says the New York Sun, sis entitled to
legal protection against trespasses upon
its property. No one has right to go
upon farm or into coal mine against
the command of the owner, to persuade
his laborers to leave their employment.
But in their own homes, or in the public
places, where the men from the farm or
the men from the mine may peaceably as
semble and reason together, by what au-
thority can any court forbid citizen to
advise them to cease work where such
cessation involves no violence to person
or property" 1t looks very much as if
Judge jackson had fallen completely
under the influence of the Monongah Coal
Company, and had issued such a restrain
ing order as they asked for without much
regard to its legality.

CURRENT COMMENT.
COAL MINERS WAGES.
(Bos ton Herald.

The Rev. w. G.. Puddefcrd, a gentle
man familiar in this vicinity as a mis-
sionary clergyman, testifies to what he
recently heard from Pennsylvania clergy
men of the coal regions at the annual
meeting of the Congregational churches
of that state. They told him that their
congregations were largely made up OF
miners; that some of them made less
than 81 per day, while others rose as
high in their recompense as $3.50, yet for
nine months in the year many did not
average eight days work in a month
The department store, from which they
are expected to buy their goods, though
prohibited by law, is yet in operation in
this way
Some man has bought elsewhere, and
at the end of the month the clerk says:
"Why, Thomas, only 50 this month?''
tWell, my wife bought few things
from her cousins store" "Oh, yes, ]
see." The next week the foreman says:
We'll, Thomas, l guess we won't work
that pocket any longer" "Al right, y
says Thomas, "where shall we go next?'
well, don't know yet, and he never
does know. Thomas is not discharged,
but they are not ready for him yet.
Mr. Puddefoot also reports from person
al observation OF Illinois coal mining.
in one mine the men were paid off in beer
after the store account was settled. In
another, where 300 men were employed,
an average OF one man a week was killed.
The wages are as high as So at times.
but when the time the miners are out
of employment is reckoned, 1.-THE wages
are too small to supply the decencies OF
American life.

One of the encouraging. signs of the
times is the evident disposition of foreign
capitalists, especially in the London mar
ket, to invest in American securities.
Only few months ago comparatively
English investors as we'll as other foreign
holders of American stocks and bonds
were unloading to degree that was ON

the liver is torpid and sluggish and the

Various ane contradictory reports have
come from England in regard to the atti-
tude o. the British government toward
the proposition of our bimetallic commits
sion for an international monetary con-
ference. The latest, and most trustwor-
thy, report is that the government has
promised to return answer to our COM
mission October first, giving as reason
for the delay that they are anxious to
consult the Indian authorities in regard
to the conditions in that country. This
is not encouraging. The reason given for
the delay looks like subterfuge. 1t is
not at all probable that the government
is ignorant of the opinions of the Indian
officials, or that it will get any valuable
information from them between now and
October. Possibly the reason for the de-
lay is the expectation that silver will be
so thoroughly discredited by fall in price
before October 1st that the impolicy, if
not the impossibility, of trying to bolster
it up by an international agreement will
be patent to everybody, including our BIZ
metallic commission. At any rate the
delay is very discouraging symptom to
the friends of international bimetallism.
Some very remarkable cures were re-
lated at Old Orchard, and if the testi-
mony was reliable faith is altogether
more potent than medicine. No physician
claims that he can restore broken bone
short of weeks or months,
but there was testimony at this
meeting that broken bones had been
completely restored by faith in an in
stant. Physicians do not generally claim
to be able to cure cancers, but there were
several testimonials at this meeting of
cancer cures accomplished by faith. We
have a strong suspicion that if the per-
sons who alleged the expeditions restora
| tion of broken bones and the curing of
cancers could be put under cross exami-
nation very grave doubt would be raised
| as to whether their bones We're really
| broken or the alleged cancers real ones.
| Not that we mean to insinuate that the
| testifiers meant to falsify, but that they
were mistaken. No doubt faith is a
powerful factor in the cure of disease, but
we should advise person who broke his
leg not to rely upon faith entirely, but to
call in physician and have it properly
set. So if one should accidentally swallow
poison we should advise him not to rest
on faith but to swallow an semetic as
quickly as possible. 1t was
the Apostle Paul, we believe, who said
that faith without works was dead, and
we suspect that the man who swallows
poison and relies upon faith without
works will be dead. If the doctrine
preached at Old Orchard is true that it is
an afront to Omnipotence for sick man
to resort to human agencies for cure, we
can't see why it should not be equally an
affront to Omnipotence for hungry man
to resort to human agencies for food; and
hence the proper thing for him to do
would be to sit still and wait to be fed
