 Assessment work on mining claims is now in order and the wise man will not delay this highly important requirement. of the mining laws. The Mining Journal will at this time venture a little advice to the claim holder. In doing your work this season see to it that it is done in manner which will add to the general development of the property. Do not confine yourself to hundred dollars worth of work to a claim, but do five times that amount if it be possible for you to do so. Open up your property so as to make every dollars worth of work tell toward making it a shipping mine. If it is your plan to sell your holdings it is important to do enough work to prove that you have something valuable to sell. Mining is legitimate business, and when you uncover valuable ore body you have something to sell which is as staple IS the farmers wheat in the bin or his cattle in his stalls. Mining men do not buy holes in the ground; they want values and they must be in sight; so fl you have a mine to sell un- cover your ore body. Show it's length and its breadth, and il possible go down and show its depth. When all this has been done you will not only be able to find buyer, hut you can gc, your price. --kesehikan Mining Journal.

 Eight years ago Adolph Dittman, one of the owners of the California Brewery in San Francisco, became enraged at his wife and told her that never again would he speak to her.

 Senator Beveridge, of Indiana, has stated that the American occupation of Cuba will be permanent. He declared, during the course of speech at Minne apolis, that the United States would be foolish to again permit the island to be- come a source of danger, and that, if let alone, it would go along with it's blood shedding indefinitely. He said that the government had, in the first place, been induced to give the island up through the machinations of scheming capitalists and weakminded theorists.
 General F.. NJ. Carr has sent in his resignation as United States commits sioner at Fairbanks, but has been pre- vailed upon to stay with the office little while longer.

 Walter Wellman is back in Paris per sonally experimenting the reconstruc- tion of his airship, which will contain some important new features which he believes will increase his chances of success 100 per cent. and decrease the uncertainties of aerial navigation the world over in an equal ratio. At the time he was to start for the pole last summer his machine was not as perfect even as some in use in various parts of the world. One of his party asserts that it required much persuasion on the part of the rest of the expedition to prevent Wellman essaying the journey, even though the machine proved faulty in it's experimental flights at the station.

A CRISIS IN PERSIA.

When tho shah Of Persia. Muzaffar-
ed Din, is gathered to his fathers, a
crisis i'm the affairs OF Persia, II Is pre-
sumcd viii set in. Russia Great
Britain and Germany have for years
been rivals for the preponderating IN"
fuence upon he policy of the Persian
government, and II is supposed that
the death OF the present ruler VIII DC
the oconslon of diplomatic intrigue
The general Impression Is that IN Per-
sla great ,druggle for political SUI
premacy will one day be fought,
struggle that cannot be confined TO
Persia, but must inevitably spread UNI
iii IL embraces Arabia, Mesopotamia,
Anatoia and the whole Turkish en-
pire
1t Is quite possible, though. that the
new form OF government will prove
the means Of STAYING off the threat
ened crisis for some time. Popular
governments are different from ORR
ontal despotdsms In this important
particular that they do not depend
upon any one man for their stability.
When daspor dies. the government
is virtually dissolved and in the strug-
gle that often ensues between rival
claimants for the vacant throne, for
eign lntrigues have a fair chance of
success. 1t is different when the
people govern themselves and the rul-
ers represent the people. The grant
ing of parliament and a constitution

the country.

DISSERTATION OF LAW.

The apologst for Sunday saloons and
kindred transqresslons OF law Is exert
Ing itself to make II appear that it IL
inspired only by the purest ana holi-
est OF motives. In It's venomous attacks
uron the L.atter-day Saints II we take
its word for II. II merely insists upon
the observance OF the law In the inter-
est OF public morality
II Is Impossible. however, to accept
this explanation. The real fact Is that
the chief leaders and instigators OF the
present anti-"Mormon' crusade have
demonstrated beyond possibility OF
dnubt their absolute indifference TO laws
and ordinances. Witness their alliance
with various kinds of soul-destroying
business, conducted in defiance of both
law and public sentiment They want
10 employ the law and the machinery
or the government as big sticks with
which 10 annihllate every one who dares
10 oppose their un-American plots and
schemes. That Is as far as their zeal
for INV goes. But that Is not a vlndi-
cation OF law 1t Is the worst desc
Grafton OF law imaginable. The pur-
pose OF the law is the promotion OF
Justice. II IL not intended to he an
instrument for the furtherance or per-
sonal ambition, or revenge, and anyone
who lays unholy hands upon 1t for such
purposes commits the crime OF Uzza
whom the Lord smote upon the thresh-
ing floor OF Naehon.
The anxiety Of the un-Amerlcan con-
sprators 10 find cover behind the pre-
tense that they are the champions OF
virtue. while I'm reality they are merely
the paid slaves OF seltishness, Is readily
understood. for the manifestations OF
intolerance have rather monstrous
appearance In this enlightened age, es-
pecially when hypocrisy adds to theiI
ugIlness. as is the fact in this case As
far as the chief instgators OF the pres
ent crusade are concerned. they are not
sven honest in their intolerance, as were
tho blgots who led devastating armies
I'm former centuries against the Wal
denses and Alhigenses. or instigated the
massacre Of Huguenots. These were
honest in their errors. but In the pre-
sent case there are no eStenuating cir
cumstances. II is a matter OF selfish
ness pure and simple. and the lnbored
efforts to make IT appear that II Is a
matter OF zeal for public morality. are

ALLIANCE OF CHURCHES.

In the Episcopal diocese OF New
Hampshire a society has been formed
called The Eastern Church association.
The object OF this organization is to
promote the closest possible union be-
tween the American division OF the
Episcopal church and the Russian, or
Greek orthodox denomination. 1t is ex-
pected that the effect of this movement
will be twofold. IL viii affect.
II ~ said. American church life,
and also, Americas political sta
tus. It will, in turn. react on the Rus
sian church and people.
The separation of the Greek from the
Roman church occurred in tie year
1854, when the patriarch Of CONSTANT
nope and pope Of Rome excommuni-
Gated each other, as heretics and US
urpers. AS for the doctrines of the
Russian church, It's members deny the
infallibllity of the Pope ard the exist
ence Of purgatory
Marriage does not disqualify a candi-
date for priestly offices from obtaining
so-called holy orders, but re-marriage
Of a priest Is forbidden. Laymen are
permitted to marry as many as three
times. Baptism is performed by i'm
mersion three times and leavened
bread is used In the sacrament. Monas-
ticism Is an important feature OF the
Greek Church. The three great con-
vents are those OF Jerusalem Mount
Sinai and Mount Athos. The inmates
of these institutions engage In manual
labor.
The government Of the Greek church
IL administered by the patriarchs and
by the synods. Some OF the patriarchs
are honored by high-sounding titles. The
one who resides at Jerusalem Is called
THE Blessed and Holy Patriarch of the
Holy City Of Jerusalem, OF Palestine,
Syria. Arabia beyond Jordan, Cana.
GalIiee and Holy Zion The supreme
authority is vested in general synod,
but the patriarchs are almost auto
Gratis. each In his own jurisdiction
Attempts have been made repeatedly
to bring about a reconciliation between
the two great branches Of the Catholic
church, but without success. The re-
formers entertained bright hopes OF in
Producing their tennts into the Greek
Church. and Melanchton particularly
took great interest In these efforts. SO
far, however, the Greek church has re-
fused to accept the advances made. II
the New Hampshire society succeeds
in bringing about an alliance between
the Episcopal church in this country
and the Russian Church, II win be
rather by RussIanizlng the American
denomination than by reforming that
over which the Car OF Russia is rec-
ognized as the spiritual head.
