never was any timber in this section to
amount to anything and what there was
has been used. Practically all the tim
Der now used here is imported from
other states, therefore, we in the arid
belt do not look at this question in the
same way as the people of north Idaho.
Up there numbering is among the prin-
cipal industries. The life and prosperity
of many considerable communities de-
pend on numbering activities. They do
dot need to irrigate hence conservation
of water supply does not concern them.
Thus, quite naturally, the two sections
of the state are controversially arrayed
against each other. But, it seems to
us, that this conflict is more the lack of
Information than real antagonism of in
terest. The forest reservation that can
materially benefit southern Idaho can
not appreciably damage north Idaho,
and on the other hand, the forest res
ervation that harms north Idaho cannot
possibly benefit south Idaho. We of
the south, with what forests we have,
are on one side of the water shed, while
they of the north are On the other side.
If the forests in north Idaho conserved
40 billions of cubic feet of water every
year, southern Idaho could not get a
drop of it and it would do not a particle
of good to anybody. The people of the
north could get it but couldn't use it
while the people of the south could use
it but couldn't get it. Thus it may be
seen that the people Of north Idaho
might consistently and justly oppose
forest reserve policy that would meet
the unanimous approval of the people
of the south -

Eye Strain and How Relieved.

In recent number Of the Journal of
the American Medical Association, DR..
Lewis S. Dixon, Of Boston, makes some
interesting observations in regard to the
above named topic, He ellis attentian
to the fact that the eye has always been
studied simply as a part Of the body,
under physiology, and contends that it
needed to be studied as an optical in
strument, under optics, a branch of
science which our knowledge is mathe-
matically accurate. The usual explana-
ton that the eyes are naturally weak
and may be rested by ar, avoidance of
work is declared to be erroneous, and
the CONVICTION is expressed that no or
gan of the body should fail to perform

Quicksilver Mines in China.

The principal quicksilver mines in
China are the Wan Shan Chang, in the
prefecture of Toon- Yen, province of
Kweichow, and are situated about 1000
feet above sea level. The journey from
Shanghai, 1924 miles, may be accom-
plished in 25 days. The quicksilver de-
posits lying in magnetism limestone,
are scattered over an area of about
three square miles. One variety of
cinnabar is bright, transparent red, and
another dark, opaque red, with which
antimony is almost invariably associated
in small quantities. Native mercury is
sometimes found with antimonial ore.
The ore piclIers, mostly lads, women
and children, produce from 10 to Is
pounps of select ore each, assaying one
to two percent. mercary, which is the
customary amount gathered in a days
work. In working the mines during the
rainy season, the surface water as it
accumulates in the lower workings is
forked by means of bamboo or wooden
chain pumps, similar to those used for
irrigation purposes. Timbering is I'M
necessary, the ground being compact
and holding up well, even in the largest
workings. Ventilation is poor, but
workmen give it no attention, because
they do not wish to incur expense. The
ore is mined in the ordinary way by
drilling holes, seldom beyond 10 inches
deep, with three-fourths iron drills
pointed at both ends with steel. The
holes are charged with two or three
ounces of domestic gunpowder, and the
slow burning fuse is a conical shaped
piece of paper. An average shot breaks
about 100 to 200 pounds of rock. The
men work an average of five or six
hours day, and receive in addition to
two meals daily 100 cash (about eight
cents). The public mines. are mostly

POWER OF THE JEWS.

From Albuquerque Citizen.
Extensive preparations are now on
foot for the celebration, beginning No
vember 25, of the 25Oth anniversary
Of the settlement of the Jews in the
United States.
The year 1861 was noteworthy for
the issue by the Dutch East India com
pany of a grant of privileges which
gave the first legal recognition to the
immigration Of what was then almost
a universally prescribed race. A par
ty of twenty-three Portuguese Jews,
which had fled from Brazil to New
Amsterdam. was allowed to stay, with
civil and political rights. From this
little germ has grown the greatest
Jewish c~oloney in the world, New
York's Jewish population-672. 776-
being larger than that of any other
city. Lodz, in Poland, comes next,
with 100000. and Vienna is third.
London has 13S,S6O, which is but Il
per cent. OF its total population.
OF the 900 Jews in the world,
1900, 900 are in this country. 1t is
an acquisition Of which this country
may well be proud of and to which
It owes very much of its greatness.
The Jew has been well to the front
in all the great movements that have
developed the country and built up
the nation, and the celebration of his
coming might fifty be participated in,
not by Jews alone, but by all of
the American people.
A mighty people were the Jews IN
the olden time, but a mightier people
are they today. The Jew is more nu
merous today than in his greatest day
proudly conscious that without a coun

fee Department, and this time not
| against the Postmaster, but against
the railway service. 1t is r that
the train is late many times during
the cal, but the mail service is
much more regular here than upon
the main line of either the Rock Isl
and roa or the Santa Fe line. On
excursion days any reasonable man
must know that the schedule cannot
be always kept. Last evening, for in
stance, the train was two hours late,
but that same train left Amarillo with
eleven cars and the roadbed was soft
the entire distance, making it impos-
sible for the train men to make up
any time between Amarillo and Ros-
well. No one doubts that the manage
of the Pecos Valley Lines do
their best in the way of prompt ser
vice, and continual kicking from this
part of the country will result in no
good to the community.
The Pecos Valley train has always
to wait at Amarillo until after the
arrival of the Southern Kansas train
from the East before leaving Anna
rillo, and it's arrival here is regulated
by the time of leaving Amarillo. If
the Pecos Valley Lines should be
forced to change their schedule SO
as to reach Roswell at six o'clock,
then the mails could never come in
ahead of that time. AS it is now
they are not often later than six
o'clock, and many times as early as
$50 Or four. The Pecos Valley Lines
have just as much of a grievance in
being compelled to wait at Amarillo
the people of Roswell have for the
delay at this end of the line-and our

True happiness is of a retired nature
an enemy to pomp and noise; it
arises, in the first place, from the en-
joyment of ones self; and in the next
from friendship and conversation of a
few select companions; it loves shade
and solitude, and naturally haunts
groves and fountains, fields and mea-
dows; in short, it feels everything it
wants within itself, and receives no
addition from multitudes of witness
es and spectators.-Addison.
