THE GREATEST FsENoHMAN

In France they have just completed an election to determine who was the greatest man of their country to reach the climax ot his career in the last century, The election was conducted by the newspapers, and that it was representative of French sentiment is testified to by the fact that more than l., 900, 900 votes were cast.
 It will probably astonlsh the average American to know that the vote showed the great Napoleon Bonaparte to be only fourth choice in The race. He was not evendrst among the state builders, having to take rank be- meath Leon Gambetta, the statesmen who guided the footsteps of the republic during the days of it's iuian.y.

RoosEvELr's BEST CITIZEN

Jacob A.

Those who have looked into the life Of this man admit NIT. Roosevelt has much upon which to base his estimate.
 Jacob A. Rtis is a newspaper man and his experience as 8 reporter shaped his future life. Great,thirgs were predicted for him as a 5oy tn his native Denmark. He came 10 this country when just out Of college with an unQuenchable fire burning in his breast. He was ambt- rious sud sought an avenue through which ,o give expression to himself. His drs: work was as re porter on the New York Sun and he was given an ss' ulgnmeut as s police reporter. The con ditions that untolded themselves to his imaginative and sympathetic mind, as ne became acquainted with the darker side of life. developed his kindly and gentle nature until his great love for humanity overwhelmed ambition for fame and glory. He remained for many years ss a police reporter, persi,tently decliniOg promotion % editorial posi- cions with their more reuumera,ive salaries. During all this time he de- voted al his surplus time and energies to making happier those whose lines had fallen in hard places.
 Rits determined tha, New Works East side was worth saving. He became convinced that sll thu, was required to make :t demonstrate that fact was equal opportunity with the remainder of man. kind. He became possessed of desire 10 secure for it the opportunity. He worked much Of his theme into his news stories, and people came 10 recog- nize in him a champion of the oppresS- ed. Settlement workers found in him au intelligent and sympathetic ally. The rich entrusted him with funds. Gradually he became powerful, always fighting good fight with Square Deal' for 8 sword. No movement Tor genuine reform has ever lacked his aid. He was 8 valued help to the Roosevelt police commission of the last decade.

SEND TO JAIL
THE LOOTERS
OF The Corporations, Says StuyveS-
ant Fish.

New York, Nov. 28.-That
there can be no restoration OF
public confidence until the state
and federal governments to send
Jail those men who have looted
the corporations. is the opinion
of Stuyvesant Fish, who re-
turned TO Chicago last night.
LAS has been foreseen and
foretold, the present crisis is
due 70 the utter lack of conf
dence in corporate management
as controlled and directed from
Wall street. Such a lack is
world wide" said MIR. Fish.
ITO re, establish confidence
abroad we must first re estab.
lish it at home, particularly in
the agricultural communities OF
the west and south, where the
real wealth of the country is
annually taken out of the soil
1T has been often said there
we're two ways of avoiding this
panic.
First. by the corporations
purgiug themselves and clean
ing their own houses.
Second, by the strong arm
OF the government putting some
of the rascals in Jail,
Neither corporations nor
the government, state or feder.
al, has acted yet efficiently,
hence we are confronted with a
period of depression in general
business which is real and wide,
spread, aud must, of necessity,
last until confidence is restored,

GEORGIA'S GOLD
OUTTURN SMALLER

The press bulletin of the United
States Geological Survey gives the
following information as to the min
ing of precious metals in the South
ern Appalachian States:
THE southern Appalachian States,
including Alabama, Georgia, North
Carolina, South Carolina Tennessee,
and Virginia, yielded $295,335 in
gold in 1906, a decrease of $158,S42
from the figures of 1905. The output
of the first four States were notably
less and only Tennessee and Virginia
reported increases.
North Carolina still shows the
largest output-$S2 ,131-and is close
" followed by South Carolina, with
S78,959. The greatest decrease
$65 ,S60-is shown by Georgia, whose
production amounted to only S31,05O.
AS usual, siliceous ores yielded the
largest amount, principally from
the Hillabee mine in Alabama, the
Halle mine in South Carolina, and
the lola mine in North Carolina. The
placer gold aggregated $4,000 in
round figures.
Of silver S7,765 ounces were pro-
duced. a decrease of 269,744 ounces
from 1905, the greatest loss being
apparent in Tennessee copper ores.
The only States having an important
OUTPUT of silver were North Carolina,
with 30,769 ounces, and Tennessee,
with 55,931 ounces. Almost the
whole silver output is derived from
copper ores.
