The Fitness of Things.

"I'm going to live in the country, "said
the city man one day,
'I'm going to revel in songs of birds
and the perfume of new-mown hay.
I'm going to gather the blossoms bright
and gaze on the butterfly
And list to the mystical melodies when
tremulous branches sigh.
But the bird he heard was the queru-
lous owl who kept him awake at
night,
The insect he met was a hornet; and
his was sorry plight.
In the course of his botanizing he
gathered poison vine
And he hurried away to the station and
said, cts the city, boys, for
mine!'
81 guess I'll go up into town awhile, "
said Uncle Bill one day,
"1'D have a look at the 'lectric lights
an be careless an downright gay!"
He looked in vain for thoughtless glee
in the crowds that went madly by;
He got mixed up in motor car and
cabman hollered ''Hi"
He ate dinner he didn't like, and
went to a dreary show,
And slept in room just six feet
square. And he murmured, 81
guess l know
When I've had enough. At break OF
day I'll be headed for home. You
see,
The city's the place for city folks. An
the farm is the place for me!'

Not All American Ways.

In one daily report of the news of the
world we read evidence of sensational
character in the trial of an Italian min
lister, on charge of defrauding the
state; an Italian multi-millionaire ar
rested for sensational murder; banks
fail in Berlin; Russian editor threatened
by the black hand, etc., etc. One
wonders if "Dementia Americana" has
invaded Europe, or has life in the old
world always been as strenuous and
sensational, and America not deserving
the bad light in which she is sometimes
cast when comparison is made with
other countries. If life seems topsy-
turvy and the world upside down on this
hemisphere it appears to be not in keep
ing with actual facts, then, for public
speaker or writer to blame American
methods and institutions. If the
system in America is wrong, after a
voyage of little more than a century by
the ship of state, where would some of
the ancient capitals of Europe be found
if they were called to account.

The Annual Assessment.

Some tin horn or son of rest who is
Representing" at the mining congress
in Joplin, but grossly misrepresenting
the rank and file of the ambitious pros
pectors and mine discoveries in the west
wants to change Uncle Sans require
ment of claim owners, allowing the
individual or corporation to pay to the
land office $50 instead of performing
$1O0 worth of work, which now answers
for assessment each year.
1t appears the valuable time, at least
some of the time, at the Joplin meeting
is being taken up by that character and
kind of mining" men who prove to be
nuisance at mining congresses that
have been held in the past Many
times mining" men receive appoint
ment as representative who are not
mining men at all, or, being mining
men, they play to the galleries and
want to be looked upon as big 1T.
Such chaps only retard the progress of
the meeting, taking time that could be
devoted to the consideration of vital
subjects, which might result to the good
of mining.
No real prospector with the ambition
to gain in his makeup will complain that
the 500 assessment work each year to
hold the ground is unjust. The gov
eminent doesn't want the prospector's
money, but it does want the prospector
to ''dig up mine. The government S
policy is best for both. If paying a
sum of money each year into the land
Office gave the locator right to hold the
ground, then location work would be
the only development work that would
be done. Without showing" the
prospector could make no sale; the min
eral resources of the country would re-
main dormant.
If the editor of Mining News had full
say in the matter the amount of assess
ment work each year on claim would
be increased rather than lowered. The
history of most mining camps is that
the first big strike and the start-off of
the country WAS made by the man who
had just few claims and concentrated
his work, upon them. In how many
places in this district has single man
made location on what appeared to be

The Real Bankers.

To all appearances the hard times has
not yet put crimp in the bank account
of the farmer in the middle west. An
Uncle Hiram in South Dakota wants
corn huskers, and he wants them badly.
The cold proposition :of fried chicken,
ham and eggs, and the privilege of
sparkling Annie in the parlor three
evenings week is no inducement to
the sons of toll these piping times of
prosperity, so the Dakota tiller of the
soil offers the following inducement:
"Wanted-A man to husk corn; will
furnish carriage with canopy top to go
and from field; l will feed, harness,
hitch and unhitch horses and carry
breakfast to him in bed. If the water
doesn't agree with him, will get some
from Avon that will. Will also furnish
him team and buggy to drive evenings
and Sundays. Should he prefer an
automobile, will buy HIM one."
How easy it would be to prevent a
panic in this country if people made
runs" on the harvest fields like they
sometimes make on the banks. After
all Mother Earth is the first bank; all
the wealth comes from the soil. With
more tillers of the soil and fewer manip-
ulators in the guided offices on Wall
street famine and disease would be the
only agencies that could cause hunger
and distress in the home of the honest
and Industrious American citizen.
The farmer and the miner are the
real bankers in this country. Nature
has stored wonderful surplus that will
pay big dividends to those who make
the run" on it.

Militant Fathers and Home.


A man in Oregon City was arrested
by his own daughter because he took
shotgun. to emphasize the fact to the
young lady's beau that he didn't want
him hanging around the home any
longer. If that girl gets the proper
training she will some day regret the
deed. Many wolf in sleeps clothing
steals the idol of the home before it has
reached its maturity, and many young
men are given the freedom of the par
lor on Sunday evenings who should
never have been allowed to pass the
gate. More militant fathers of the
Oregon kind and young manhood would
be elevated to plane never before
reached; the marriage institution and
society would be more secure; divorce
would become unpopular and the curfew
would be thing of the past. If any
person needs a guardian it is the young
girl who has not yet reached the age of
discrimination, incapable of distinguish
ing the real and the imaginary, when
she is susceptible of fiattery, and plastic
young permits the fashioning by
stronger minds.
