GUARD THE EDDY LAW.

Representative Smith, of Baker
county, is going to the legislature for
the special purpose Of attempting the
repeal of the Eddy corporation tax
law. Baker county seems to have no
greater interest at stake than this.
There is little danger of this law
being repealed. but its friends must

RoosEvELTs IRON HAND.

1t is loudly hinted that the worst
in the land frauds is yet to come.
1t would rather be difficult to i'm
agine what it can be, in the light of
those things which have just hap
pened.
Roosevelt, the reformer, knows no
tion. No man is so crowned as to
escape his cruelty searching probe.
No official is so sacred as to be free
from the inquisitorial scenting of his
sleuths.
Roosevelt announced after he was
elected by the largest majority ever
accorded an American president that
he would not accept the presidency
again. He fears no future thrusts
of political enemies, therefore he can
probe, and carve, and lay on the lash
with utter impunity, as to the future.
If his aim is to administer a clean
government, he is pursuing the brave
and proper course. He is making his
iron hand felt where it will do good
in future generations.
Oregon will benefit by this chas-
tisement. Roosevelt's iron hand is
what she has been itching for ever
since she has persisted in keeping
crooked officials in office, as it is al
legged she has done in Hermann's

III Will be severe on the guilty par
ties. and it should be. If they have
deceived the people and have lowered
themselves to the level of common
thieves, let them suffer the humilia-
tion and pay the penalty. If they
are not guilty, the trial court will
,gindicate them.
But Oregon need not breathe a sigh
of relief, to think that her ordeal is
over. when Mitchell, Hermann. Puter,
Watson and others of that ring are
disposed of.
The green fields of land frauds in
oregon are not in the Cascade noun
.Ealns. The greatest harvest will be
found in the La Grande land office
district, where these magnificent
tracts have come into the possess
sion of stockmen; where sheepherders
and cowboys have been used to pre-
empt water sources, creek bottoms
favored spots for camps and ranch
houses.
1t is hinted that Special Agent
Green has years work for the fed
eral court stored up in Eastern Ore
zon records, alone. The worst is yet
10 come. Some of those smooth
guys" who have been patting them
selves on the back, in thinking of
their consummate smoothness, will
be called upon to explain the dark
ways by which SO great holdings came
into their hands.
If Roosevelt pursues his present
policy Of probing the frauds to the
bottom, there is many a man in Ore
gon who will wish he was poorer by
several thousand acres of land, be-
fore the merry program is over.
This is only a beginning. They say
It is persecution. But any excuse
goes now. There is no feeling in the
matter with Roosevelt He is de-
termined to cleanse the government
and leave it better than he found it,
and every man who has been crooked
may well shudder.

with a very few statesmen mixed
in with unions leaving its labor and

is it any wonder that the common peo-

makeup. The country is top heavy N
some directions and light in others.
That must be so, else both money. and
the man of moderate circumstances
would not be so restless. The booster

million dollar bond issue for a munich
pality as naturally as he would go 20

careful man, who figures on the incon-
venience of settlement day. Labor
leaves its employment to force capital
to a more equitable division of its
profits. The CRATER sticks out his
selfish paw to get something for moth

the part of the community who foot
the bills. The pettifogger would prom

We have often heard the expression
used that "more gold has been put
into the ground than has ever been
taken out of it, This ridiculous old
saw-though utterly absurd on its face
has nevertheless been accepted by
thousands of well meaning people and
repeated without wisdom or investi-
cation. The fact is that the Console
dated Virginia mine alone has yielded
more of the precious metal than WINS
ever put into the ground in the whole
of North America. This famous mine
has paid in dividends to lucky owners
nearly $4,000, 900, which, with the
wage scale and other expenses added,
would undoubtedly bring the grand to-
tai az its output considerably above
the enormous sum. OF 800, 000, 900. The
stock of the Consolidated Virginia was
started at Is cents a share.
The list of American mines which
have paid 81, 000, 900 or more profits IN
their owners is so long that its reaf-
ing would prove monotonous to all -ex-
cept those decidedly interested in
mines and mining matters.
A few instances of large profits made
in mining stocks may be mentioned as
follows: Sierra Nevada advanced from
$500 to near $4,000 within a year;
Kentucky from $4,000 to $4,000 with
in a year and a half; Virginia CONSOLE
dated advanced from Is cents to $4,000
within two years; Granite Mountain
advanced from 10 cents to $4,000 per
share within two and one-half years,
and Mollie Gibson advanced from 25
to $11. 90 per share within a few
years.
Fortunes lie in mine development.
The Aspen mine once sold for $217.0 o
1t has since produced ST. 900.
The Ontario sold for $40, DOC, and
has produced $1S,000,0 900.
The Camp Bird was bought for less
than $4,000 in 1879. 1t could be sold
for over 100000 today.
Ability to recognize an opportunity
and courage to grasp it are indispens-
able to success.
A great deal has been written of the
fortunes made in mining, and
of the money that has been lost in try
ing to make money out of the mines.
But the fact still remains that the
percentage of loss, where a little bust
