James Smitbson was the natural

Duke of Somerset. a lineal descend

wauderer. visited this country, and
when he died ut Genoa, Italy, in
1929, he left bis entire fortune,
amounting to $500, 900, to the gov.
ernment of the United States "to
found at Washington, under the
name of the Smithsonian Institution,
an establishment for the increase and
diffusion of knowledge among men,"
1t had been Smithson's boast that
his mare would remain known among
men when the titles of Northumber-
land and Percy who we're his an
cestors, we're extinct and forgotten.
Smithson's legacy to the United
States WIS brought to this country by
Richard Rush sixty five years ago.
The money was brought in one hun.
dred aud five bags, each containing
one thousand gold sovereigns. As
result of the investment of that fund
there has grown up in Washington an
institution which, in addition to tho
income of ESQ, 900 from Smithson's
legacy, expends each year s45O, 1000.
1t came TO the attention of Pro-
fessor Alexander Graham Bell about
a year ago that Smithson's body was
about to be disturbed. The GENE
terry in Genoa. where 1t was bur. ed,
was to give way to a marble quarry,
and the idea Of bringing bis body to
America was set forth. The matter
was thus brought to the attention of

Mining Methods In 1861.

A magazine entitled "Out West"
has unearthed from some library
copy OF Latin book written In 1861
by one ARricola, in which many
things learned and interesting con-
cerning mineralogy and mining are
set forth, together with numerous
very old fashioned wood cuts. The
editor undertakes to praise these fif-
teenth century miners to the detrac-
tion of the men who have made the
business of mining famous in the
present day by their mechanical ap,
pliances. 1t may be true that the
principles of the suction Pump, the
windlass and other fundamental min.
ink machinery was known in the six
teenth century, hut 1t Is absolutely
unfair to detract from the complete
and especially constructed engines of
today by any such comparisons, for
mechanical enterprise has made more
progress in the last century than In
1000 years before that day, and
mining machinery has kept pace with
the rest, likewise the allied sciences
Of geology and mineralogy. Agricola
might have been all right In bis day,
but be could not hold miners can
die to some Of our present day
authors and progress we make In the
mining business. The western editor
had better stick to facts and avoid
comparisons which do not compare.

Writers on the labor problem,
those who have studied the question
intelligently and pre-ented the result
of their enquiry conscientiously, put
the unions In the same category with
trusts. The labor bosses seek to
control the labor market by prevent
ing "scabs," men who will not sub.
init to their dictation, from securing
employment. The trust magnate :
game Is to combine all those engaged
in any one line of business. under
his manipulation. Should any institu.
tion possess sufficient independence
to refuse to enter the com mbination,
II IL treated as are the scabs. Both
seek II monopoly, for the purpose Of
practicing extortion on the public.
The latest device Is for employ ers
and employees to unite, ascertain
how much their customers, uuorgan.
lied citizens generally, have and take
1t all. In Chicago the coal dealers
and draymen originated this method
of robbery, which has extended to
the other trades aud other cities. In
the current issue Of Mcclure, Roy
Stannard Baker tells In most enter
taini nR manner how these brigands
operate In San Francisco. There no
man In any independent calling Is
given show for his financial life.
OF course, the system IL being car
ried too far, and time will rectify
the evil, rs 1t does all others that 60
to such extremes. But 1t is an in
justice to blame the labor unions.
They were organized for sorely
needed protection aud have developed
into engines of oppression, as all
other human institutions do that
acquire great power, without respon-
sibility. They are merely an exem-
plification of the spirit Of the age, a
desire to get the best Of 1t, to give
our neighbor and the rest of the
world the worst Of 1t, without regard
to equity, In defiance Of moral and
civil law.
Until within recent years, this
condition Of affairs, so far as compar-
atively modern times Is concerned,
has been of slow growth; but during
the past half dozen years IL has
sprung, apparently, full grown into a
national danger. Its first assumed
tangible form was when the New
England manufacturers forced upon
our government the protective tariff |
policy. Later few shrewd manipu.
lators persuaded the government to
build aud pay for transcontinentalI
railroads for themselves. Then the |
worked the greatest graft
of all, in the decentralization Of

called industrial trusts, and now we
ARE confronted with the labor union

he has been the hero OF more romantic
