GREAT REVIVAL IN MINING
Julius ii. Lewis Writes interest
ingly of Mineral Point and
the Xinc Works.
PREDICTIONS EoR 1000.

a large portion of the Galena
Tribune OF last week was devoted TO a
write up, by Julius Il. Lewis, OF Min
eral Point mines and the Mineral
Point zinc works. The writer gave in
vestigation and thought to the subject.
His conclusions are that Mineral
Point is on the eve OF a great mining
boom. The city has, he says, the
men and the mines and both will give
good account OF themselves for
1906.
In his article describing the ziuc
works and acid plant Mr. Lewis says;
''If the city of Mineral PoiLt had no
other claim TO pre-eminence "a the
first great city of southwest Wisconsin
than it is the home site OF the Mineral
Point Zinc Works. that mere fact
alone would in itself be sufficient to
establish this claim without contro-
versy But ii has more and other
claims to pre.eminence which places
the city in category by itself The
wonderful sulphuric acid works ad.

ent factor in clinching the city's right

The entertainment given in the city
hall on last Thursday and Friday
evenings, by pupils of the Mineral
Point high school, reelected credit on
all having part therein. 1t was un-
der the auspices of the high school
base ball association, of which Ray
mond Wcidenfeller is manager and
Elmer Horuung captain.
The Mineral Point concert orchestra
kindly assisted during the first even
ing in carrying out the musical part
OF the programme,
There were songs by quartette
composed of. William Nickerman,
Charles Hoare, Francis Coady and
Corliss Toay; II reading by Miss
Katherine Davis: songs by the boys
glee club, composed Of Lawrence
GRADER, Horace Goldsworthy, Elmer
Hornung, James Crawford, Ira Fit1-
simmons, Francis Coady Joseph
Ellery and Willard CrawIord; II read
ing by Miss Cora Kirkpatrick; a duet,
by Miss Alice Spensley and Miss Eta
NJ. w. Jones; and a debate on Social
ism The audience showed their APP
probation of the manner in which the
songs were rendered by calling for a
repetition in each number. The read
ing by Miss Katherine Davis, AS the
Moon Rose, not only gave evidence
of careful training by her teacher but
cleary proved that Miss Davis is pos
sessed of rare talent, The reading by
Miss Cora kirkpatrick, "The Govern
or's Levec", was excellent and won
for her we'll merited applause

The debate was on the question OF

The debate was on the question of
Socialism, and was thus stated
Resolved, That greater progress and n
more equitable and lust distribution OF the
products of labor are possible under the soci-
alistc proposed form OF government than
under the present conditions in the United
States"
The contestants were:
Affirmative Francis Coady, VIII Rohan,
Negativc-Carl Hoaly, Elmer Hornung,
The young debaters are entitled to
commendation for the way In which
they presented and discussed the ques-
tion. That each of them had investi-
gated and studied the subject was APP
parent to all listeners. Their zeal
and enthusiasm made the debate both
interesting and Instructive, The
Judges selected for the first evening
We're w, 4. Jones, Robert NJ. Craw-
ford and II, NJ Priestly, and their de-
cision was for the Affirmative. The
judges for the second evening were
Ernest G. Fielder, George Crawford
and G. G, Hubanthal, and their decis-
ion was for the negative
The views shown by Prof Bergen of
the geysers and other wonders of Vel
lowstone Park proved pleasing fea-
ture OF the entertainments.
Entertainments of the character here
reported testify of the good work
which is being done in our schools.
They not only help those who take
part in them, but we believe that they
give inspiration to others to more
earnestly pursue their studies, and
they check u tendency on the part of
some TO quit school altogether.

WOULD CHANGE
IMMIGRATION.
The Howell Bill Now Before Con-
gress Explained Not So Easy
for Foreigners.
GENERALLY APPROVED,


WASHINGTON, D. c.. Apr. IF
the bill which the committee on i'm
migration and naturalization, of
which Mr.. Howell is the chairman,
has reported becomes law it will not
be so easy for aliens to come into this
country. The main features of the
bill which has been prepared after
several weeks of hard work, are the
education test. the increase of the
head tax, the money in pocket provi-
sion. the increase in the list of eXclud-
ed classes and the establishment of
bureaus of information at ports of
entry.
Some of the Features.
The head tax will be raised from
two to five dollars. The educational
test will consist of the aliens ability
to read English or some other lam
euage. The test will be made under
the provisions that shall be made by
the secretary of commerce and labor.
The money in pocket provision will
consist OF the requirement that the
head of family shall have $50 in
pocket; that any male alien shall
have $25; and that female aliens
shall have SIS in his or her possess
sion.
The list of excluded classes will be
increased by the addition of those af-
ficted with tuberculosis. feeble mind
ed or insane, and the immigration of
ficials will have more power in de-
porting aliens of the excluded classes.
The contract clause is also strength
ened. The bureau of information
will be to aid the immigrant 10 get
from the cities to the country. 1t is
believed the bill will meet with the
approval of the different organiza-
tions that favor restriction. 1t is
felt it will, if enacted, cut down the
Immigration at least one-third.
