shows that the mysterious metal is tin
Percy went out To Darwin and the
Panamint districts two weeks ago to

Percy took piece of ore that weigh

turn to camp put 1t into a common
portable forge and gave it a roasting.
The ore exuded drops of a whtsh me-
tai, like fat from piece of bacon.
and when the test was over n large

MINNESOTA AND CUBA

New York Journal of Commerce.
Representative Eddy Of Minnesota is
clearly of the opinion that the United
States is under no obligations of any sort
to Cuba moral, political or financial. The
soundness of this view need not be dis
cussed now; more pertinent inquiry at
the present moment, especially for Mr..
Eddy, Is whether the United States is un-
der any. obligations to his own state of
Minnesota. 1a@@
That state is deeply interested in the
export of flour. It's representatives re-
Gently made a great effort to escape the
London landing charges would add a few
cents to the cost Of shipping flour to
Great Britain. The present Cuban duty
on flour is 81 per. 100 kilos, or, practically
81 a barrel. The new duty which Cuba is
about to establish is 100 per cent, or about
81, more or less, on Minnesota patent flour
according to present quotations.. Is that
fact matter of any interest to Mr. Eddy
and his constituents? If they are so
deeply interested in the London landing
charges, how will they feel about an addi-
tion of 81 or So a barrel. according to
grade, to the Cuban duty on flour?
In 1902 we shipped to Cuba 5SS, 556 bar
rels of flour, and the year before we sent
556,55 barrels. These figures are nearly
sup to those OF the year 1893, when the

Minnesota was enthusiastic over the pol

SUBSCRIPTION TERMS
THE MERGER INDICATED

This settles it. The merged Northern
Pacific and Great Northern railways have
reduced rates on grain from 10 to 1t pei
cent. Therefore, the merger is good
thing, conducted by philanthropists for the
good Of the community; it's underlying
Idea is triumphantly vindicated, and we
poor wretches who have opposed the
merger are confused, confounded and dis
credited.
For a column and quarter this morn
Ing the Pioneer Press sings song OF
praise of the merger and exultatlon that
all the prophets of evil have been found
to be false prophets.
And what does it all come to? Simply
that ], j. Hill has been generous enough
and wise enough to give the northwest
grain rates it Is entitled to. Mr.. Hill
deserves credit for having done the right
thing while having the power to do the
wrong. 1t is generally believed that Mr..
Hill desires to establish reputation for
observation-disclosures and for being a bene-
factor of large portion Of the country.
AS a railroad despot he Is a good despot.
But there have been good political des-
pots Does Mr.. Hills goodness justify
railway monopoly any more than Saint
Louis life justified political despotism.
Mr.. Hill may continue to exercise his
great power benevolently and construct
lively rather than maleyolently and de-
structively, but is it good policy for the
community to Jet any man have so great
q power over it? Even now other rail-
sway magnates are laughing In their
sleeves at Mr. Hill for being so good They
consider him a soft mark" for the
public.
When Mr.. Hill is gone one Of these all
the ira will stand scoffers may stand
In his place and WELD his power.
And we are not so sure that these re-
ductions are exclusively derived from the
milk Of human kindness. In Washington
they came only after the Inauguration OF
a campaign for the creation Of railway
commission and after the farmers were
fairly up in arms to demand lower rates
We are not so sure that we would have
had them in Minnesota if it were not
established that the state can reduce rail-
way rates on the basis, of a fair income
on a cdplIdllZdIlOit DtSeu Olt SllS SOoI vi
reproducing the road. Merger earnings
have been mounting skyward and the
people have not kept their eyes shut.
And, Furthermore, the probabilities are
that we would have had these reductions
just the same if there, had been no mer'
ger. Experience is on the side of the
proposition that such concessions come
easier and Cftener under competition thar
under monopoly, and experience in the
past is still regarded as worth something
evidence what expect in the
future
Meanwhile, we hope the merger will
keep on reducing rates The people
will profit by the lower rates, bu
they will not be deceived as to why
they get them, led to believe that the!
owe them to the merger.

ROSES VIEW Is Nor Rosy

Those who criticise President Roosevelt
because he does not leap into the arena
and proclaim a guaranteed nostrum for
the trust disease will do we'll to consult
the address delivered before the American
bar association yesterday by its president,
L. M Rose Of Little Rock, Ark. Mr..
Rose, who has evidently given some time
and thought to the problem, buzzes along
from solution to solution and doesn't
find much promise in any Of them.
That's what's the matter with all of
u.s. the president included Something
must be done. That's agreed. But we
can only tell what by beginning to do
something. The problem has got to be
prospected by drilling into it with some
law or laws by congress that will, If they
do nothing else, give US some suggestions
for further legislation.
Mr.. Rose doesn't think much Of pub
licity. 1t has some value he says in
keeping the situation from getting worse
than it is. Well, nobody except Bourke
Cochran, perhaps, ever thought publicity
| would do the job alone. It's a good be-
ginning, however, a nice mild way to be-
gin to put the bride on the trusts.
| But Mr.. Rose rather SHES at President
Rooseyelts general proposition Of control
of corporations by congress through an
| amendment to the constitution, if neces-
sary. It might introduce an era of po-
litical corruption, he says, hitherto un-
known. Mr.. Rose evidently hasn't much
confidence in either congress or the ex-
ecutiVe.
Mr.. Rose takes a more cheerful view of
slashing the trusts by slashing the tariff.
That would reach the vitals Of some of
the octopi, but not all. Some of the
trusts are international and more pow
erful than tariffs. Some Of them can
laugh at any form of competition for
eigners can bring against them.
On of the whole, the pessimistic Mr..
Rose finds more hope than in anything
else in an amendment to the constitution
that would enable congress to prevent the
''slugging of rivals by vicious local un-
derselling. Such legislation would not
prevent capitalistic combinations, but it
would give the little fellow a show in his
own yard and a chance to grow. big and
powerful.
After all we fall back on the conclusion
that we must learn as we go. The i'm
portant thing is that the president has
proposed that we start.

PANAMA HATS MAY FALL IN PRICE
- S..... PHILADELPHIA Times

Panama straw hats are highly fashionable
IN Japan, though on account of the price,
which is much higher tkan that of the ordin-
ary straw hats, they are bought only by the
rich. This obstacle may be removed If, al
reported in an Osaka paper, the substitutes
for the Panama straw found in middle For-I
mosa are really adapted for the purpose.
The substitutes are said to be the fbres
Of the leaves of certain tropical tree OF veryl
rapid growth. Six fbres can be obtained frornl
each leaf, which is about four inches wide
and four feet long, and 1t is said that the
cost of 10000 fbres is about six yen. A cer-
tain foreign firm of Yokohama is said to have
already given a large order for the fbres.
and the Panama hats made with this new
material may therefore appear on the mar.
ket this summer. If the new fbres are really
suited for headgear Formcsa may be said
to have hit upon new resource.

Outside the Hennepin county fight, the
congressional contests in Minnesota have
so far been very free from speechmak-

two to half a dozen speeches a day,
and the whole city has been covered
with meetings. In the ninth district Hal
Vor Steenerson started the ball last week,
and from now on the five candidates will
make the Welkin ring.
The seventh district candidates have
been shaking hands and kissing babies,
and the only speeches they have made
were on the Fourth of July. ".s,5 ..
