Many of the most eminent min
ing men in America will attend
the American Mining Congress
in Joplin beginning November
11th, and some who are authori-
ties on subjects chosen will read
papers before the meeting.
Among the interesting papers
that will be read, Mr.. Callbreath,
the secretary, announces the re-
ceipt of an advance copy of The
Remedy for the Law OF the Apex, -"
prepared by DR.. James Douglas
of New York city, who has given
the subject he discusses a thor
ough study and several actual
tests. The paper is not based on
a theoretical foundation, but has
its inception in demonstrations
with which Mr.. Douglas has been
concerned. This question has
puzzled more than one lawyer,
has been the bone of contention
in many mining camps and its
solution will mean a great deal to
the mining industry. Such men
as DR.. Waldemar Lindgren and
John Hays Hammond will also
have interesting papers before
the meeting. The former will
discuss the production of gold rel
ative to the increasing demands
of commerce and trade and the
,latter will have for his subject
"A Federal Department OF Mines
and Mining" In addition there
Twill be many others of import
lance and interest, while none the
less important will be the special
Ifeature'with which the mining
Icongress is vitality concerned
among which is the investigation
Iof smelter rates and the corpora
ltion laws of the various states
with a view to, suggesting add
'tional protection for mining In
Iyestors. These problems are Of
a scope that demands the deliber'
late and careful consideration o.
men who are capable of graspine
the conditions and details, ant
Isuch men are those who will hell
Ito make the next session OF th'
congress a success and productive
|of the desired results.

The effort to make the railroads
pay taxes on a one hundred per cent.
valuation will probably fail, and it
should as a matter Of fairness and
justice. If the railroads are to be re-
quired to pay on full valuation then
the banks and other corporations
should not be permitted to pay on a
sixty per cent valuation, nor should
land owners and other individuals es-
cape on fifty, forty or thirty per
cent. valuation. We believe in all
property being returned for taxation
at its fair market value, but it would
be gross injustice and bad precedent
to require the raiiroads to pay taxes
son a. full valuation. While thousands
of acres of land are returned for
taxation at twenty per cent. of their
market value. Today there are lands
IN Sumter county that cannot be
bought for less than $40 to $50 an ace
that are on the tax books at SO CT
less. Make the railroads pay, but re-.
uuire all others to do SO in the same
proportion
It is estimated that the cotton acre
age in Sumter county is between five
and ten per cent. less than last year
ard that fifteen per cent. less ferti-
lizer Will be used. It is hoped. how
ever, that the seasons will be favora-
BILE and that larger crop viii be
produced.
It is reported that some farmers
are selling their cotton crop for fall
delivery on the basis of present prices.
This is bad business and Will rebound
,stoc the injury of all cotton growers, as
well as. to. those who sell and miss the
opportunity to obtain higher prices.
The cotton that is sold now will be
used as a lever to hold down prices in
the fall when the law Of supply and
demand would naturally create higher
prices.
