additional rains in Nebraska and Kan

for the Northwest Crop damage re-
ports. however, were very numerous, and
before the end OF the first hour July ad
vanced TO S0ac, new high record for
the season. Higher prices at all Euro
pean grain centers strengthened the de-
liberal selling by local and outside hold
ers, which soon forced prices downward.
During the remainder OF the day the
marke, was easily affected in either di-
rection, but within the last half hour
bearish sentiment seemed to predoini-
nate and the market closed rather weak.

NEVADA HILLS IS A
MONUMENT TO UTAHAS
Fairview Property Is Showing
Bonanza Ores With Still
Greater Depth.

Ordinarily one would expect sixteen
eigbt-or ten-horse freighting teams to
make quite respectable hole in pile
of sacked ore, but the impatient Nevada
Hills directors can testify that the con
trary often is the case. Several days
ago sixteen Such teams were loaded
with Nevada Hills ore at the mine, but
the hole they made in the accumulated
sacks could hardly be cTawled through.
The mine is simply clogged with the
precious stuff, every available space in
che drifts and tunnels is filed with the
loose material. while upon the dumps
are entirely too many sacks awaiting
shipment to cause complete satisfaction
TO those AT the helm of this organizR
ton.
One Of the best items throughout all
this campaign of trouble for the Nc
vada Hills is the fact that the ore is
not the result Of stoping. The manage"
menJ has been able to pile up resources
at wonderful clip by means Of sim
pie development work, and were the
the company could mighty near keep
up monthly consignment of something
like 100000, and for an indefinite
period at that. The Nevada Hills is
a great mine. No one doubts that
And the best of it is that Salt Lakers
own nearly the whole property, so that
nearly all the dividends paid come TO
Zion and are spent here. This is only
right and proper, as Salt Lakers first
discovered the mine,
II Is no easy matter TO get any news
of the Nevada Hills, The company is so
satisfied with itself that the newspaper
man must discuss Nevada Hills affairs
without any apparent desire to learn
anything with those who are in charge
l., IT,. Ia,
it. In spite OF the difficulty eX-
perienccd by the COMPANY in securing
teams to handle the ore. the local Of
fee comes very near to having irCSI
car of ore each morning for breakfast.
No one knows what the value of the
ore is. Some say it will net an aver
age Of S254 per ton. At the present
time thcyc are eight cars on the rails
between Hazen and the local samplers.
All this suggests another dividend
soon.
From what can be learned, the Ne
vada Hills management has opened
along its strike the main ore chute for
n distance of 1900 feet. Enough work
has been done below the surface to
demonstrate the continuity Of the vein
with depth. Towards the eastern por-
ton of the group, part not, deemed
overly promising heretofore. the man
agement is still turning up high values
and liberal quantities Of the same gold
and silver rock. The brilliance of the
mine s present, therefore, by no means
can blind the eye to the certainty of
the future. But to argue about the Ne
vada Hills is TO bring one back to the
starting point, for the conclusion must
he the same as the beginning-thc mine
is a fine proposition, and stands as n
monument to the genius of Utah mining
talent.

What does it all means Officials
in Washington have been trying to
fathom the matter ever since the White
House consultation of nearly ten days
ago. The war talk, which the Cali
fornians fomented, has been pooh pooh-
ed on every hand except in some of
the more sensational journals At first
it was said here in the East that
there was probably politics in the Cali
fornia war prophesies. 1t would pre-
pare Congress for treaty excluding
Japanese, or, perhaps, pave the way
in part for an exclusion act by Con.
gress. Some said also that the talk
was furthered by army and navy Off
GERS who hoped it would impel Con-
gress to appropriate ghnekously for
the military establishments Congress
has not been in a generous mood about
such appropriations this winter.
The President believes it is posi-
BILE to arrange a protocol to the pres
ent japanese treaty, by which Japa-
nese laborers shall be excluded from
the United States and American labor
ers excluded from Japan. This is not
accepted with much enthusiasm in the
Senate, where it is said that a treaty
according to one class of American
citizens privileges that are not ac-
corded to all other Americans could
never be ratified Of course American
laborers care nothing for the privilege
of working in Japan and it would seem
that we were giving nothing for some
thing that we want very much. The
President believes Secretary Root can
frame the protocol in language that
will meet the criticism of Senators.
Secretary Root is very astute in fixing
up words and phrases but it remains
to be seen what he can do in that
line, if Ambassador Aoki is given au-
thority by his government to begin
negotiations for a protocol.
THE SCHOOL CONTROVERSY.
The important thing for the pres
ent, however, is to dispose of the con-
troversy about the exclusion of Japa-
nese children from all except the ORR
entail school. Both the President and
Secretary Root are more concerned
about that just now than they are
about any other phase of the japanese
question. They are having big and
picturesque wrestle this week with the
San Francisco municipal and school au-
thorities, including Mayor Schmitz, who
were hastily summoned to Washington
after the White House conference. If
President Roosevelt can bring Mayor
Schmitz to his knees and persuade the
school authorities to yield he. is con
fident that he can settle up the trou-
Die and secure some arrangement about
the immigration of coolie labor that
will satisfy the Coast. All in all 1T

AS to segregation between nation
alities, nothing of the kind has been
thought of, but a practical segrega-
ton satisfactory to both white and
Asiatics has been arrived at along the
following lines:
1.-THE white children all understand
English, and their prime object in GO
ing to school is to secure a general
education. On the other hand, the ma
tives and Asiatics are to a great ex-
tent ignorant of English, and their
primary object in attending school is
to learn English.
cit would be manifestly unfair to
the English-speaking children to be
mixed with children who must com
mand large share of the attention
of the teacher in teaching them Eng
fish; whereas on the other hand it
would be unfair to the non English
speaking children to have the instruc-
ton carried on in a language which
they did not understand In certain
schools, therefore, an English speaking
qualification is required of those who
wish to enter, regardless of their ma
tionality. Those Asiatics and natives
who can pass this examination are adj
mitted. Those who can not are re-
fused and attend the other schools.
This produces n natural Seqreuatiap Of
most of the white children in certain
schools and of the Asiatics in others
without any friction or dissatisfaction
to any one.
