Joplin, Mo-, Oct. flames F.
Callbreth, secretery of the Amer
lean Mining Congress, which
meets in this city November IL,
is doing much to interest the coal
producers of America in the con-
gress. In the past, the congress
having been organized in the
west, the coal operators have not
taken a very active part, but let
tiers are being received from
many coal mining sections in the
United States announcing that
representatives are to be sent to
the next congress. One of the
chief objects of the meeting in
Joplin will be the laying of plans
to create department of mining,
through which the assistance
and cooperation of the national
government may be secured.

Parham, the leader of the Apos-

says his wife has become a regu-
lar fanatic over the Parham re-
ligion, and says she has it so bad
that she does not stay at home
any more, but follows Parham
and his revival meetings over the
country. Mr.. Preston says ne

asked him to refrain from exert

wife, but Parham says I've Is
powerless to help it. Seems to as

her to leave her home he could
exert influence enough over her
to make her 60 back home. But
perhaps the rule will not work
both ways.

THURSDAY. OCT. 3.
WHAT"DEBT" MEANS TO
4 TOWN.

"A
Boosting that they are entirely
free from debt and don't owe a
penny-but they are not the best
Kansas towns. Parks, fine streets
and other improvements which
make a town worth living in call
for indebtedness.
This paragraph from the Kan
sas City Star has been copied by
many Kansas newspapers, and i'll
nearly every instance the accom-
panyiug comment has been COM
mandatory. This fact is in itself
a most cheering demonstration of
the Kansas spirit-the spirit
which gets there" by doing
things. The newspapers of Kan
sas reflect the sentiment of the
people of that state. No more
mistaken or prejudiced notion
ever fastened itself upon the
earlier communities and common
wealths of America than the one
that 4 town or state should pay
as it goes" The inevitable re-
suit was that the towns and the
states which adopted that rule
did not go" very far; and it is a
reasonable assertion that practic-
ally all the advance they did
make was through deviating
from the rule and going into debt.
The cause of this inevitable fact
is obvious.
When citizens have to dig
down in their pockets for those
public works which are to confer
continuing benefits they usually
will not dig" and they 60 with
out the improvements. What
was good enough for our forefa-
theirs is good enough for MS" is
the Bourbon spirit engendered
by that doctrine. Furthermore
there are many advantages one
generation may reasonably hope
to secure all for itself which it
can not afford to pay for all in a
lump sum. Then again many
civic improvements give perma-
nent increase in value to landed
property, and this increase pro-
crosses every year that is, it be-
comes larger each year than it
was the year before-''it grows
by what it feeds on" The people
feel the absurdity of placing all
the burden on the one year which
has not received any of the i'm
crease.
A debt is in no sense a debt
when it represents a property or
value which the people cannot
justly obtain any other way, and
which they cannot afford to do
without. 1t is in such case an
investment. To object that il a
city or state goes into debt it
might be extravagant and conse-
quently it ought never to 60 into
debt is to confess a belief in the
failure of self-government. II is
as though an individual should
plead imbecility. The evil of
extravaganza, or of the dishon-
est disposition of public money,
is of course to be guarded
against; but an abnormal fear
that the public will not get its
moneys worth should no more
induce a policy of not securing
what the public needs than a
person should fail to invest in a
needed suit of clothes, or need
ed dinner, or a needed home, be-
cause one might get cheated IN
the transaction.
Those Kansas towns are the
best Kansas towns-those towns
anywhere are the best of their
commonwealths-which do not
pay as they CO." but which pro-
vide their citizens with the pub
lie works and the comforts of

the entire camp turned out to see
lwhat caused the awful noise. Mr..
lLawley explained it all by saying
he was just celebrating an addi-
Itional big strike of block lead in
Ibis southeast drift. He has good
cause for celebrating, as such
lead as he is taking out has not
been equalled in this camp.
