MINING NOTES.

A special from Goldfeld states that
the great Kendall mine, owned princi-
pally by United States Senator Nixon
and George Wingfeld is the mining
sensation of the hour. To date two
consignments, aggregating more than
seven tons, of ore that is worth $50
per pound, have been deposited in the
vault of the John S. Cook bank. Ac-
cording to careful sampling, this pre-
cious stuff is worth $4,000 a ton.
A 3 per cent dividend aggregating
shareholders of the CRANKY Consoli-
dated Mining, Smelling & Refining
company.
The CRANKY mines and smelter are
located at Phoenix, B. c., and Grand
Forks, B. c., respectively, constituting
the largest mining and smelling en-
terprise under one company in Can
ada. The ore is coppergold, carry
ing principal values in copper, and
being a low grade, self fluxing prod
uct. CRANKY shares have advanced on
the New York curb from $3.50 to par
| for the $40 shares within II months.
The full capacity of eight furnaces
is now running at the CRANKY smelter,
! treating about $500 tons of ore daily
The three shifts of eight hours re-
Gently commenced are working with
out a hitch, there being now over 300
men employed as a result of the eight
hour system being inaugurated.

Talks on Corporations.

Corporations are the first great sub
Ject dealt with. He says he is not
opposed to corporations. Like trade
unions they have come to stay. Each
must be checked when they are not
doing good. He thinks their regula-
ton possible under existing conditions
but if not the constitution must be
amended. The power to regulate must
be affirmative and given to some ad-
ministrative body created by congress.
He says such body should have the
power to judge of the reasonableness
of railroad rate and to prescribe the
limit beyond which it shall be unlaw-
full to go. All decisions on rates must
be subject to revision by the courts.
He does not favor power being given
to originate rates, but to regulate
rates already fixed.
Il regard the power to establish
a maximum rate as being essential
to any scheme of real reform in the
matter of railway regulation.
All private car lines, industrial
roads. refrigerator charges, ETC.,
should be controlled by the commits
sion.

Against the wrath of the Lord the wis.

manual, whether he be farmer or
wage-worker, business man or profess
