1t Don't Pay.

There is a certain sort of adver-
Using that don't pay. 1t is the kind
which starts off with an apparently
interesting item about some marvel
Gus thing and winds up with a stom-
ach rejuvinator OF a liver bitters
advertisement. Such things annoy
the reader and should never appear
in a newspaper. When a man is
fooled once, even 90 that kind of an
ad. he vows never to ~patronize that
kind of incidence if he can help it.
Any newspaper that will accept a
patent medicine ad. is not a news
paper at all, only a rag.

AN Indispensahle Book.

The BONANZA is in receipto Of a copy
of "Pitfalls of Mining Finance" by
Harry ]. Newton for many years
managing editor of the Daily Mining
Record of Denver, in which position
Mr.. Newton encountered and investi
gated every kind of mine promotion
and every phase of its oftimes pecul-
lar modes of finance. That he has
prohted by this experience is shown
by the mastery way in which the
subject is handled in all its ramitica-
tions. The book should be in the
possession of all interested in mining
companies and every one who dabbles
in mining stock. 1t can be obtained
at the Office of the Daily Mining
Record, Denver; price 80 cents.

STORY FROM ARIZONA.
A Typical Cattleman from Texas
Falls i'm With Mining Men.

- A%
Fails in With Mining Men.
The following, in the Engineering
and Mining Journal, is a narrative
that the writer overheard in making
acquaintance with a typical cattle
mar from Texas, who found himself
among a group of mining men in
southern Sonora, Mexico, and natu-
rally wished to contribute his quota
to the discussion. 1t is so typical of
the cattleman and prospector COM
bined, that it is worth the reciting;
'In my young days | goes to Globe
City, Arizona, and while there, l
strikes a prospector of name, Bill
Pump. He give me invitation to go
on Salt river a'prospecting with i'm.
We starts out on the 22d day of De

Cherry Greek the next day and goes
along prospecting a couple of days,
followin' up the creek. Me being a
tenderfoot and a young man in the
business, | asks him the minerology
of all the rocks, and there was any
quantity of EN-, too.
THE second day, after a hard
days prospectin,' all tired out,
a-walkin' over the rocks, up the
creeks and over the trails, and after
showing him two or three hundred
different kind of rocks, | asks Bill
Pump the indications of a certain
kind of little black river rock with

coal sePPLY pwlmpLEs.

/ HAT THERE IS REAL reason Tor
the fear expressed BY some OBJ
servers that within = comparatively
short period Of time. say within cen
tury or two or three. the coal supply
of the world viii be exhausted. is evil
! deneed By a bulletin recently issued by
the United States geological survey on
the production of coal in the United
States during 1903 says the bulletin;
IN order that some idea of the bulk
/ represented by, the coal production of
the United States in 1908 may be OBJ
tanned. Il might be stated that, if the
entire production we're loaded on freight
cars with capacity of thirty tons
each. the trains containing it would
eRcirele the globe at the equator about
three and one-third times. II the en-
tire production were loaded on freight
cars in one day. the trains would oc-
eupy one-qEarter of the entire railway
trackage Of the United States Taking
an average of thirty cars 20 a train,
it would require sixteen times as many
freight locomotives as there are in the
United States 10 move this tonnage in
enc day. II spread over the surface OF
Manhattan island. which has an area
Of twenty-five square miles, the entire
island would he covered to a depth of
nearly twenty-five feet
1t viii be seen that eoHside-a Ole coal
IS being taken out of the mines every
year. And il is like drawing money
out of a bank without adding any to
the deposit already there Sooner or
later the supply must necessarily be
exhausted unless new discoveries are
made. In view of me careful, and un-
successful search that has been made
Tor new coal deposits recently it seems
now unlikely that new fields Of any
magnitude VIII be found.

lie CONTEMPLATE with the ut
" most sadness an election wager
tLat has just been made in st. Louis.
II Judge Alton B. Parker is elected
president of these United states next
November one Amerie Pates has
pledged himself to shuttle Off this for
tai coil by leaping from the highest
point OF the Eads bridge. should
Judge Parker be defeated the man
with whom Pates has made this agree
ment is to pay him. the said Pates, the
magnificent sum of s.. In otEer words,
Pates values his life al this tidy sum
which. we are sure most Of you Will
agree, is decidedly exorbitant. It is
the first election bet yet recorded in
which odds were given on the Demo-
cratic candidate.
Democrats should cheer up nightly
over tire outlook And, lest tender
hearted people should vote for Roose-
velt, not because they like Roosevelt
but IN order TO save the life Of Pates,
it is proper for Us TO say that there is
about as mucL likelihood of his paying
the bet, If he loses, as there is that
he wiz sail straight to the moon I'm a
chariot of FIRE. However. 1t is quite
possible that some Of our friends who
have as vet been unable TO ind an ex-
cuse for voting for Roosevelt win ind

John Fiske wrote his great story OF

REPUBLICANS Amo TEXAS.


: ENCOURAGEMENT has been made
\ Of. the Republican determination
to carry Texas al the approaching
presidential election. We may say at
the outset that If the efforts Of Chair
man Cortelyou along this line are sue
cessfuI there won't be a single cleo
toraI vote cast for Judge Parker when
the electoral college meets next Febru-
airy. However. the Republicans are
welcome TO try. We would much
rather have them put forth their best
efforts in Texas than in some other
states we think OF. such as Indiana,
for instance.
Do not misunderstood US. Texas is
not unanimously Democratic. Only a
few DAYS ago the followers of the grand
old party held a state convention down
there. There was plenty OF room for
them in the small haH they occupied,
bat it is worthy of note that they
found enough men to I'll out an entire
state ticket and to complete an cleo
toraI ticket as wen. Of-course the gen
'tlemen who have been named for the
offices have all possible confidence in
their election. Indeed, there is justifi-
cation for the faith that is in them
A contemporary. the Chicago Rec
ord Herald. offers some excellent Tea-
sons for believing that, II fight IS
made. the Republicans viii carry Tex
as. It says;
.sT,,-t 7,-,- ese,- y -,-,,1l5 he fo~ the
Republicans TO carry Texas is apparent
from a casual inspection Of the cleo
ton returns. Bryan's plurality over
Mckinley in 1900 was only 146.14i, while
that Of Governor Lanham over Bur
kett. the Republican candidate for gov
erno- in 1902. was only 2Os.970. More
over, there. are only 246 counties in Tex
as. in several Of which no Republican
votes were cast in the elections of 1896
and 1900. The state Of Texas is only a
little larger in area than. the republic
Of France. With a little cTowding you
could stow away Spain. England and
scotland IN the state Of Texas. The
United Kingdom. indeed, would not oe-
cupy half the area of this great com
mOnwealth.
1T is true that it would take vigor-
ous campaigning to cover the PAS coun-
ties OF Texas between now and No
vember, but there's nothing impossible
in politics. AT any rate. the Republi-
cans have given the country a fine ex-
hibition OF nerve in the nomination of
a full state ticket from governor TO

plained that three of the cases Of this

Tie Improvement Is attributed TO
purer water, to better sanitary ar
raRgements and TO the watchfulness
Of the health department. All these
are doubtless contributing causes, but
they are not entirely responsible. The
campaign of education that has been
conducted for several years against ty-
phoid in salt Lake has much to do
with presenE conditions. But the cam
psign has by no means been completed.
Scientists tell US that there is no
good reason why people should be
afflicted with typhoid fever. It is an
absolutely preventabIe disease. That
IS. If people are careful about boiling
their water, about sterilizing their milk
and looking properly after the food
they eat they VIII not have typhoid
The least relaxation of watchfulness
may. however. result in illness so ex-
pensive that the average householder
is thoroughly alarmed when he con-
templates it,
salt Lake is normally one of the
healthiest cities IN the world. The
water here is far purer than the water

is certainly purer and tie general con-
