THE VALUE OF LAUGHTER.

Can you not recall a smile that had 50 much of a sheer in it that it could sting like a blow ia tho fnce' One instinctivoly

Hearty laughter is of real tbera. peutie value; 1t increases the circula. saon, relieves the ovcrchargcd nerve cells, aids digestion, stimulates tbc Ever and bowels and overcomes men. sal depression. That the Journal. Miner knows, because |. has tried it. Dut, aside from benefits to the one who lndulges in hearty laughter, its Influence is untold. Indeed, it is un. tsllsbls.

His sworn testimony eontradicted tho magazine" an. pouncemcnt, which the company, whose money mad tempted him into wrong. doing, trapped him into making. Then s tricky lawyer sprung 1t on the jury, to weaken 1hc testimony of the graft witness
 Possibly, it may have the desired effect, and get, Co the close watcher, ,t only strengthens the belief that Cal. houn Is guilty, os charged A high minded man, wholly innocent Of tho crime of bribing public officials for sordid ends, would not allow nis sub ordinates to attempt to clear him by such pettifogging methods as ycster- days exhibition betrayed. Nor would he have contended that the grand jury bad no authority to indict. Ho would saye come into court, facing every. thing, daring everything, with a single lawyer, whose value Co his client ,lc. pended not on his ability to weep and Uratc before jurymen in criminal cases, but rested solely on his knowl. edge of the law.

CANTEENs AND DRUNKENNESS

That drunkenness among tho enlisted men of the army has increased since the abolition of the post canteen has bccn repeatedly asserted in official re. ports. Instead Jf promoting temper. ancc, it is declared that the result has been exactly opposite. But the oppon ents of the cantscn are 10th to acknowl. edge the truth of these statements. One of them, W. N. White of Philadcl. pnia, writing to the New York Times, absolutely denies them, and offers, in proof, the following figures, AZ giv"n by the judge advocate general:
 l900-- General courts martial, G.Gso; drunkenness, l,6i5.
 1901 General courts martial, G,O65; drunkenness, l,s5s.
 1902 General courts martial, J,3II; drunkenness, gj0.
 1903 General courts martial, j,275; drunkenness, sI1.
 I9ot-- General courts martial, l,i2o; drunkenness, '6l6.
 IgOj-- General courts martial. i,so0; drunkenness, sos.
 1906 General courts martial. i,595; drunkenness, 6oi
 Mr. Whit. is, apparently, ignorant of the fac, that, since the passage of the act of March 2, 1901, tho power If the inferior courts was extended, so that they may punish, by forfeiture of pay, and confinement, instead of trial by general courts martial. In 1901. bo number of convictions by summary unl other courts was iO,sO3. Last year. not including the Department of 'jalifo-. mia, wlosc records were destroyed in tho San Francisco iirc, tn" number had increased To 5000. Yc. Mr. wbi'c says the official figures show oily J0i eases of drunkenness in that year. The acting judge advocate gcnc.,l says:
 "In % per cent of the cases before general courts the defendant pleads drunkenness as m extcnunting circuin. stance, If not as n defense, and drunk enncss k the charge in the great iha. jority of ,bem."
 That K, tb, drunks were abou, i0, 800. instead of 7,5Ol. as asserted by the prohibitionist correspondent. Whatever arguments may be advanced against the cantccD, the assertion that it's abolition promotes temperance among the men directly affected might as well be abandoned. The evidence is too strong the other way.

BATTER or CRAY WOLVES.

Reading the testimony of former Chairman James l.. Gallagher of the fSnn Francisco board of supervisors recalls, in striking manner, the cx. pcrieneos Caicago had with her bood- ling aldermen, when the bold and un. scfupulous Charles Tyson Ycrkcs, con. trolling the street car lines of tho north and west divisions. had his grip on the city council of that tempest. tossed municipality. Like Calhoun, ferkcs had a confidential lawyer, who placed the bribc money in the hands of the council leader, leaving him to make the distribution.
 In the San Francisco boodling s,. Vucnee. it seems to have been Calhoun to Ford. to mief, to Gallagher. to the gray wolves of the supcrvisorial board. Even as Alderman Powers was credit. ed with retaining his commission |" on every dollar he paid over to the cor. rupt Chicago aldermen, So Gallagher testified that hc shaved the amounts entrnated to him , per cent, which he retained for nis services as "go.bc- tween" He also, likc the Chicago boodling official, graduated the bribes according to the influence wielded by the recipients, invariably allotting him. self the largest share, which, as chair. man Of the board, no doubt, he thought ~ss his just due.
 ferkes was, without question, the most pernicious influence that ever aid. ed ip debauching th. servants of tn. people For five or six years, he had Che aldermanic pack completely under his thumb. and, in that time, to our personal knowledge, ruined, beyond redemption, several aspiring young pol. iticians who were 50 nnfortuna as to be elected to tho city council. They were poor in purse. and the temptation of ierkes' cash -thoussnds of dollars Tor franchise vote---was too much for them to withstand. They succumbcd "a his devilish advances. and black. eped their regulations for life.
 wherein is Calhoun ono whit better thsn the unspeakabie Ycrkes. Hut for his kind--of which Glass is a typc-- sheve would be no incentive on the part of public officials to be false to their trusts. They ara weak humans, at best, as glance at the San Fran. CISCO boodling board of supervisors discloses, and when the insidious agent appears, with his palavering ways, and bundles of bills of large denomination, they are easy victims.
 We cannot nelp regarding the Cal. houn' Yerkes type as tho most danger. ous of all to the public welfare. So Tar the wealthy bribe-giver has escaped earthly justice--no doubt, Yerks' case IS receiving attention on the other side of the Styx, by this time and, as . result. the bribe-taker continues to donriSh, to the detriment of the public service. 10 the curse of the age, to the

"A vast amount of high grade ore mas been taken out of shallow shafts and tunnels on the eastern slope of the Black Hills range by miners and prospactors during the past twenty years, and it is my honest opinion tha; some very largo bodies will be de vcloped there by concerns now about to start operations with a view to opening the properties to good depth, '' said W.

 Tho groom is tho manager of tho l.. B. Johnson & Go. mercantile firm of Mesa. IIc ia held in the highest cs- tcem by the residonts of tho Salt Rivcr valley town, and is considered among its most cnterprising and shrcwdcs, business men.
