MINING AS A LEGITIMATE BUS
MESS


The international mining congress-,
which has been in session at Milwaukee,
devoted much time and consideration to
plans for placing mining on a more sub
The idea of the delegates was to help
eliminate many of the speculative fea-
lures of mining by securing the passage
of law by congress which should apply
should prescribe a uniform method of
location, size of claim and annual as
sessment of work Under such a law
mining would be controlled exclusively
by the United States law.
There is but one reason why mining
should not be regarded by the general
public as a perfectly legitimate business.
and that reason is the same which lends
an air of illegitlmacy to a horse race.
1t is the ineradicable idea that mining
operations are a gamble-that it is a
game of chance. and not a game of
skill.
To the inexpert, as IN every other
business, success in mining is purely
chance. The average miner ''goes it
blind" and so does the average investor.
They do not know the rudiments of the
business and never learn them. Success
is a windfaH to them, and not the ra-
tional result of skill and labor
To the well informed and expert miner
mining Is a solid, substantial business
requiring high technical education and
skill. It's returns are as certain as those
of agrlculture-in fact, they are more
sure. for the miner is not at the mercy
of the weather
Given large deposit of low-grade ore
and capital to work it, the profits are as
steady and the output as regular as in
any manufacturing business. With large
deposits of pay gravel carrying small
quantities Of free gold and worked by
hydraulic machinery the profits can be
figured to a few dollars every month,
and vary so little that the output can
be regarded as fixed quantity depend
ent only upon the amount of labor ex-
pended.
The element of chance enters into
placer mining, of course but placer min
ing is ephemeral, and is but small por-
ton of the mining business. Substan-
tial mining operations are no more a
gamble than the manufacture of bricks
out Of clay.
1t is the issue of mining stock on wild
cat mines and the watering of stock is
sued on legitimate propositions that is
largely responsible for the bad reputa-
tion into which much of the mining busi-
ness has fallen. and, with all due defer
ence to the mining congress- 1t will be
as difficult to prevent the evil by Iegis-
lation as it would be to prevent stock
jobbing or dealings in futures.

of the Chinese minister than could be
furnished in any other way. He says:


cit is measure of self-protection,
founded on Justice, and if the United
States Is to be an ASiatic power, [ cannot
| see why logically it will not find itself in
time compelled to guard against the en-
croachments of European powers in that
part of the world. It is true that the
Monroe doctrine was intended originally
to apply to the American continent
alone, but the principle is the same wher-
ever foreign encroachmentS might inter-
fere with American interests. 1t will not
be necessary to interfere with existing
conditions. When President Monroe is
sued his caveat he intended it to apply
to the future, not to that which already
was. He did not go so far as to under
take to drive from the American CONT
nent those European nations which were
already there. To apply the same doc
trine to Asia means simply that things
are to be left as they are, and this will
be for the interests Of the United States
as well as for the whole Asiatic conti-
nent."
1t will of course suggest itself at once
that it was not wholly for the protection
of American material interests that the
founders of the republic decided on the
adoption and enforcement of the Monroe
doctrine. They had some thought, no
doubt, that they were promoting the
cause of political freedom in the attitude
they assumed. It was not wholly sell
fish undertaking on the part of the Amer
lean republic. The restraint which was
established on foreign colonization par
took, no doubt, in great measure of the
nature of precautionary proceedings
against possible aggressions upon the
United States and their people. But the
essential principle sought to be estab-
lished was that the people of the weak
Latin-American countries should not be
ruthlessly robbed of their territorial or
political rights by any European power
that should choose to exercise brute force
in dealing with them.
We occupy no such attitude in the
Philippines. And it is really most enter
tanning to observe so keen a student of
our political history and contemporary
conduct advance the theory that, where
as we have secured by the strong right
arm of force certain territorial rights in
the Philippines. and have done so by re-
sort to just the methods which we would
not suffer the extension of by European
nations to those people on our own con-
tinent who were situated precisely as
were the Fiipinos, we are bound to hold
off the European nations from doing like
wise. But it is an inexorable logic
which the Chinese minister applies to
our position, regarded from the stand
point chosen by the imperialist poll
ticians. We have rights to protect in
the Orient and their fullest protection
can be assured under all circumstances
by the extension to the continent of AS a
of precisely the same principle of politi-
cal conduct which we have adopted on
the American continent. Hence we are
called on to carry our Monroe doctrine to
the other end of the world!

THE END IN THE ORIENT.


The reports received by the navy de-
partment from China leave little doubt
that China has sealco its own doom. ard
that partition will be the next substau-
tial development of a situation which has
been at once anomalous AMI threatening.
The exercise of sovereignty by the exist
ing dynasty is assured by all arrange
ments with foreign powers IF, as new
seems certain. the imperial authorities
have undertaken to drive the representa-
tives Of foreign nations from China. the
situation merely foretells the immediate
fate of the Chinese empire It Will die.
i'll spite Of the utmost show of force it
can offer, and in spite of the vast terri
toriaI expanse which it covers.
For, once there is a concert Of action
agreed on by the powers, there can be
enough military force landed to cverrun
the entire country, while the accessibility
Of the chief Chinese cities to the guns of
the war vessels will compel the imperial
forces to seek the interior Without much
delay.
The United States is not willing party
to the strife which has broken out. I'm
less the reports are misleading as to the
character Of the guns which have been
brought into action by the imperial
troops, there has been considerable prep
aration on the part of the Chinese for
such condition as exists. But it will
not avail them. The more formidable
the resistance which they may offer
at the outset, the more terrible will be
the reprisals which the powers will exact.
Save the United States alone. there is
not people now engaged in the contest
IN China which will not proceed of choice
10 the dismemberment of the empire.
The spheres of influence already mark
ed out will make the task of dismenl-
berment much more simple than it other
wise would be. But. whether partition be
entered on at once, it is certain that the
dowager empress has virtually seen the
end of her sway. She may be succeeded
BY the present emperor. whom she has
succeeded in so completely effacing. But
her authority cannot be recognized one

THE SCARCITY OF SKILLED LABOR.

THE SCARCITY OF SKILLED LABOR.
Employers engaged in industries re-
curing skilled labor are complaining Of
the scarcity of skilled artisans in almost
every line of trade. The old-fashioned
system of apprenticeship has been prac-
tically abolished, or reduced to such a
low point that it is nearly yaIueless, and
the result is that the snor oushly skilled
and educated workman is scarce and be-
coming more rare every day.
Boys who reach an age when their pa
rents feel they ought to make a start in
life for themselves are allowed to drift
into the ranks of unskilled labor as junior
clerks in stores. Other boys of more ten
DER years, driven, perhaps, by necessity,
are allowed to work as cash or messen-
ger boys for two or three dollars a week,
and, missing the most valuable part of
their schooling, are forced into the low
er grades of labor as they grow older, by
reason of their lack of education.
In these Northwestern states the main

rived at an age when they should be
set to learn how to earn a living are
somewhat limited. Most boys in these de-
generate days have prediction for clean
faces and SOFT white hands They like
tc wear store clothes every day in the
week, and the CRIME and grease of the
bench and the shop are not regarded with
favor But the boy in the greasy overalls,
with the smudges on his nose, will make
more useful citizen and a more inde-
pendent man than the dapper 'FWillies"
who regard him with seornfuI eyes.
The boy who learns to use his hands
and employ his brain at some occupa-
ton requiring skill and special knowledge
will find on reaching manhood that he is
always in demand. and is, SO far as an
employe can be. his own master. He is
not drug on the market, nor does he
hang upon the skirts of the producer like
a parasite, getting kicked by many and
thanked by none, liable at any time to lose
his small pittance and be swept into the
maelstrom of the unemployed.
Give boy all the schooling possible.
and then give him chance to learn soma

PLATT,s SCHEME SUCCEEDS.

Take Roosevelt out of New York state
undisputed control of the Republican ma
chine With Platt as boss the voters of
New York will turn in disgust from the
Republican ticket and the Democrats will
carry the state. With New York lost to
the Republicans, Mckinley cannot pos
sibly be reelected. Roosevelt will go
down with Mckinley and Plat will re-
joice because he will have at last de-
stroyed Roosevelt and regained undisput-
ed control of the Republican organiza-
ton in New York.
Automatically stated the situation is
this: If from N. Y. you subtract R. the
remainder is P, plus the o., but minus
V, which leaves N. Y the equivalent of
D and the equivalent of X and as R
to X, which is quantity unknown and
undiscoverable.
Platt undoubtedly knows all this. He
knew it when he forced the vice presi-
Dental nomination upon Roosevelt. Platt
doesn't care a rap about the Republican
party as a national affair, but he does
care about the Republican organization
in New York state. He gave the state to
Tammany once before when he found his
reign as Republican boss was threatened.
He would rather rule in New York than
nothing:
