has received and disbursed $36, 00O, 900, and
that never before the incident of the
Rockefeller gift has the origin Of its reve-

wonders, whether this question at this
time arises from increased sensitiveness
on the part of the public to business
abuses, or to growing Indifference to mis-
sion work. More probably the former; in
deed, is there growing Indifference to
mission work. and if there were, how
could that be responsible for protest
which has come mainly from men high in
I church councils? The protest must be
assigned to the former cause, and Is q
credit to this day and generation.

Mineral Lease Problems.

The last legislature struggled to some
extent with the problem OF mineral
leases, but left it unsettled. It even
declined to grant the state auditor
authority to lease the beds of mean
dered lakes for iron-mining operations,
and in the absence of that authority
the auditor has decided to issue no
more such leases. Some valuable ore
deposits are known to exist under some
of the lakes in the Mesaba region, and
before the next legislature meets, the
shore owners may have started serious
complications by asserting riparian
rights and beginning operations under
the lake waters on their own account.
It is no wonder that the legislature
felt unable to solve the mineral-lease
question: It is a complicated affair.
The present fixed royalty Of rs cents
a ton is recognized to be low for good
qualities of ore, and leases. on good
claims may put fortunes in the pockets
of middlemen which should accrue tc
the state. Yet this royalty is actually
high for some Of the low-grade ores
and unless it is reduced, leases on that
character Of properties will not be
made. There should be sliding scale
provided and the law should place
every safeguard around such leases
SO as to compel competition in >secur
ing them and give the state benefit Of
their full value, instead Of making op
portunities for such deals as the attor
ney general is now seeking to make
void.
The legislature would have done wei
to create a commission Of experts t,
examine and recommend new leas
law. In the absence of such an in
curry, it is to be hoped that the pres
ent state auditor will make thor
examination Of the subject and rec
ommend a practical system to the mex
legislature. Meanwhile, the public viii
not criticise him if he makes hast
slowly in the matter Of new leases.

Dold Said Too Much.

Whenever a. labor strike is attended
nv violence, we are always told that the
violence is not approved by the LABOR
leaders, is not committed by members
of the union, but is the work OF the
rabble always ready to get into scrap
when the chance offers. Organized.
labor, we are told, stands for law and
order and not only deprecates resort
to violence, but seeks to prevent 1t
wherever possible.
In, the Chicago strike, however, we
have some developments which DO not
support this theory as to that STRIKE
at least. The development in the Chi
cago strike which is of significance IS
found in the declarations of President
bold Of the transfers union that, the
government need not be concerned
about the transaction Of it's business IN
WAGONS on the street-that he will see
that any teams engaged in government
work are not molested; and in the prop
osition for an armistice, in which Mr..
Dold offered, if the employers would
agree to a 4S-hour cessation of s. hos
tilities,' to see that order was main
tanned. and no nonunion driver modest
ed, provided no more nonunion men
were hired. ,.s'=.
How can Mr.. Dold guarantee these
immunities from disorder and violence
if the labor union with which he is iden'
tilted is not responsible for violence?
How is he going to maintain order if all
the rioting and smuggling is done by the
rabble, and not by members OF the
union? 1t seems as if Mr.. Dold had
confessed responsibility for the riotih'g
and smuggling, and had justified the con-
clusion that violence is . the approved
means by which his union expects tc
win this fight. Of course, he talks
about the conservative manner in which
tho strike. has been conducted, anc
claims great credit fer forbearance
but in view of his two proposition!
above stated, claims Of this character
amount to little. s. @ ..s~+
The conclusion is inevitable that thu
teamsters' union in Chicago expect tt
and mean to win, not by any orderly Q:
peaceable methods, but by beating ant
killing men who have committed NJ
other offerse than that Of being willing
to work in the places which the uniol
men have voluntarily vacated. This i
:; pretty hard Indictment for his union
) but it is Mr.. Dold IS doing.

SAlTON STILL RISING
A Second "ShooAy" Track Now Being
Constructed

George w. Brown has returned from
short outing on the coast. He brought
with him the latest word of the rising
Salton sea. The trains are now run
ming on the first "shoo fly" which was
built about 500 feet north of the main
line and the work of building another
'shoo fly" still futher north is being
pushed as rapidly as possible. The in
dications are that there will be urgent
need for it soon for the waters of Il g
sea are constantly coming up. There
is so far comparatively little water on
the north side of the present track
which is quite solid structure. Still,
the water has found it's way through in
places, or else ways have been made
for it so that now and then there is an
expanse of 200 or 300 feet of water
north of the track. These though are
patches of isolated water rather than
extensions of the main body. Notwith
standing the care which was taken to
make the track strong trains crawl
across the twenty mile stretch, the
journey occupying an hour and half.
