NEW CABINET BUREAU PROPOSED
Department of Mines and Min
eralogy to Be Suggested at
Mining Congress

The meeting of the American Min.
ing Congress to be held at Joplin. Mis-
souri,, on November IL to 16 promises
not only to be largely attended by rep
resentative men, but one of the most
interesting meetings ever held by that
body.
One of the prominent subjects that
will come before that gathering for
consideration will be the suppression
of "wildcatting." 1t is believed that
this end can be best attained by the es.
tablishment of department of mines
and mineralogy by the United States
Government.
AS a means to attain this end at the
forthcoming meeting of the mining
Congress. Herbert G. Moore. Mayor of
Spokane, Washington, will present q
paper in advocacy of the creation of
such department. In discussing the
matter recently he said:
81 would have the Government look
after the mining business just as care
fully as it looks after it's agricultural
interests, its weather department or its
forest reserve policy. The United
States spends millions of dollars every
year in experimenting on grains, grasses
fruit and vegetable culture, through
experiment stations. The result has
paid immensely and is constantly add.
ng to the value of the products of all
sections of the country.
81 would have the Government en-
ploy hrst-class men to visit different
mineral districts. These experts would
report on the districts, the geological
formation, the properties in quartz
found. the mineral that each district
has produced, the extent to which he
mines of the district have been de-
veloped. If this were done it would
greatly reduce the hazari of mining
Investments.
"It has been said there is no form of
investment in which so much money
has been spent for the returns received
as mining. While this assertion is true,
there is absolutely no excuse for the
condition, and Government supervision
would go long way toward knocking
our wild.catters into cooked hat. 1t
would also do much toward preventing
promoters from booming mineral dis
tricts far beyond their real value. If
the Government were to establish a
bureau such as have in mind it would
be the best thing that could happen for
legitimate mining investments.

which he said was responsible for the
big slump in smelter stocks, together
with the drop in other securities of the
country. Guggenheim declared that this
was the psychological moment for the
bimetallists. "They have been too
long asleep" he said. "Just now. when
money is scarce. is the time for those
people who want combination of gold
aud silver currency to wake up and do
something"

nc Is a sin to employ physician or use
remedies in disease, it ought to be
sufficient answer TO say that nowhere
in the Bible can be found the slightest
warrant for any such statements; but,
on the contrary, many are the passages
that both directly and indirectly recog-
nize the .vaiue to humanity of both
medicines and physicians. Would God
have inspired Luke, the beloved
physician" to write the gospel that
bears his, name, and the "Acts of The
! Apostles, and have allowed him to be
"a fellow iaborer with Paul." if the
Iprsetice of medicine was SINFUL Did

clared that "they that are sick" need

natural means, which He choose to bless
