VALLEY OF DEATH
TtFMIN6 WITH LIFE
A Wonderful Western Mining Comp
Below Sea level and In Class by
ltself.

Among the visitors i'm the cfty is c.
NJ. Miller whD comes on a business
GRAND. expecting TO meet here an as
sociate in a large California project.
Mr.. Miller is a New Yorker but has
been in the west for the last eighteen
years and has been associated in many
large ventures. He is now the presi-
dent of the GPeenTater and Death VAL
ley Water Co.. a corporation that has
for field of activity, portion of the
earth that many people think Of only
with horror. the wonderful vet unin-
viting Death Valley, which takes its
name from the many members of the
human family who have persisted in its
sands. Yet according to Mr.. Miller,
Death Valley is a pretty decent sort
of a place during a great part of the
year, for people who know how to
adapt themselves 70 conditions and not
attempt foolhardy things. Portions of
the valley are certain death at times
but perfectly safe at other times and
all of il is like the Arizona deserts of
old, sure death for foolish people. or
for people who insist on doing foolish
things, in the summer time.
The worst part of Death Valley how
ever is still uHnhabited and probably
always will be, except for those who
cross 1t in the winter time or at least
not in the heat of summer, for II is
800 feet below sea level and the heat
is too intense for anybody to stay there
and measure il, especially when there
is no water there to drink. The field
of Mr.. Miller's operations however is
only on the margin of this heated
wilderness and in the heart of a Won
derful mineral country. copper being
the predominating mineral of value.
The commercial center is the town of
Greenwater. 81 miles from the nearest
railroad station on the Tonapah and
Tidewater railroad.
The town has a population of about
1900 and is connected with the railroad
by an automobile line that makes the
trip one way in about five hours, and
a stage line that consumes day and

CABINET TALKS
Of PROSECUTING
WHISKY MAKERS
Bonaparte Was Member
of Committee of
Fifty.

II will be decided very soon whether
a criminal action. against some distiller
selling goods which do not comply with
the new regulations or a quasi-criminal
action against some of the whisky men
shall be instituted. The question is
likely to be decided soon after the dis
cussion that was given to il during the
Cabinet meeting today.
When Attorney General Bonaparte
rendered his famous decision as TO
what constitutes whisky. he humorously
suggested a series of names that might
appropriately and properly be used for
different sorts Of alleged Whistles under
the pure food law. He proposed .'E
Pluribus Unum,' a compound CT pure
whistles; 'Semper Idem." a straight
whisky; Modern Improved Whisky" a
compound OF whisky with pure grain
distiliates. and Something Better than
Whisky" which would not he whisky
at all under his definition. but a con-
coction of spirits and coloring and fla
vOring matters
Everybody appreciated the Attorney
Generals humor except the makers or
blended whistles. who saw themselves
deprived of the use Of the word blend.
which was a large part of their stock
IN trade. They indicated that before
they got done they would undertake 10
produce some humor Of another sort
and put the laugh on the other side.
Now they think they have done this.

mittee Of fifty socioloEists and scien-

Best Not Pure?

In short, the committee OF fifty after

tary Bonaparte recently held is not pure
whisky; and that the worst whisky is
the article which the Attorney General
has found TO be the best
Attorney General BonaDarte-s decis-

would not be particularly humorous but
for one thing;

The whisky blenders and rectiners
have been making a careful study OF

OF the question, and that Il Is altogether

didn't remember much about the com
mittee Of fifty and its work and was
sure that any conclusions OF such an
organization, OF which he CHANGED to
be a nominal member. could not now
bind him as a law officer OF the Govern
ment.
But the whisky men. nevertheless. are
greatly pleased over their discovery and
are anxious for judicial Interpretation Of
