NATIONAL PROSPERITY.

The trade authorities of the Unit
ed States are unanimous in their be-
lief that there is no prospect whatever
of any falling of in our national
prosperity. The reason for this be-
lief is the self-evident fact that the
development of our material re-
sources, and especially of those of
the western half OF the continent and
of the south, has but just begun and
that the extraordinarily rapid in
crease of our population makes de-
mand for the utilization of those re-
sources and supplies the necessary
labor for doing it. There is doubtless
too much congestion of labor in the
large cities, but there is confidence
that the systematic effort now being
made through official sources to d.
vert labor to where it is most need
ed will greatly relieve the labor sit
nation. 1t is impossible to deny or
ignore the truth of these premises
and we do not see how the conclu-
sion can be escaped.
The scarcity of money is the only
thing alleged by any one as impairing
our prospects. That, however, is re-
garded by some sound financiers as
the one thing which assures the con-
tinuance of our prosperity. If every
body could borrow all he desires on
what he thinks good security. or even
on what his bankers think good Sc
curity, confidence is such that the flu
ture would probably be discounted
too much. Enterprises good in them
selves would multiply to point
which would render the profitable
utilization of all of them impossible.
Expected revenue would fail to ma
terialize. Interest payments would
cease, foreclosures and attachments
would follow. confidence would fail
and the bottom would fall out. From
any such prospect as that we are hap
PLY saved by a worldwide difficulty
in borrowing for new enterprises
The world Is using all its free CAPT.
tai, and cannot extend until it saves
more. The output of precious met
ais, which all must now recognize as
the greatest factor in the worldwide
rise in prices, is likely to increase
rather than decrease. and so long as
men believe that they will be able to
get for anything more coin than they
pay for it, confidence will exist and
trade be pushed to its limit. These,
in brief, are the reasons for expect
ing a continuance of national pros
perity, while the scarcity of loanable
funds supplies the necessary check
to speculation. There is no doubt al
so, that the trusts, with all their
evils, do tend to maintain a general
condition of solvency.--San Francis
co Chronicle.

OF Interest to All Mining Men.

To large number of residents of
Ely a thorough knowledge of the
science of modern mining is almost
indispensable. No industry has pro-
crossed so rapidly in the last few
years as has the mining industry. To
succeed one must be thoroughly
posted on these modern methods and
developments. And the very best
and cheapest way to get this neces-
sary training is by enrolling now in
the International Correspondence
Schools. Take your choice of a Full
Metal Mining Course, Smelling
Course, Metal Prospector's Course,
or whatever suits your needs. Full

The Eskimo. Appelrha, who had been accused of threatening to shoot George Madsen at whom he presented a gun, was found guilty today and will be sentenced next week.
 Tony Sborgia, who was found guilty of selling whisky to natives, said that Appelrha had compelled him to buy the whisky by pointing gun at him and threatening to shoot, Sborgia's s story is not believed and he will be sentenced next week.
 In addition to all ths a squaw was also found guilty of having sold whisky to another squaw. and she will receive sentence about the same time as the men.

 He was arraigned this morning and pleaded not guilty and his trial has been set for Wednesday.
 The marshars office has gone after the Eskimos with a vengeance and will stamp the liquor selling out or know the reason why.

PRESIDENT
 SAYS LIAR
SCOTT OF VIRGINIA SAYS SOME THING WHICH BRINGS PRESi-
 DENTAL WRATH.
Nuggets Special Service.


 WASHINGTON. D. C.. Nov. 30 Senator scott made some remark to- day to President Roosevelt which caused the latter to use very strong language. Some who stood nearby say that the president used the word liar" but there are many others who deny this. either because they wish to speak facts or because they desire to pre- serve his cXcellenCy from the blame which would result from using such naughty language.
 Anyhow, Scott is said to have accus- ed Mir. Roosevelt of something. It is believed that the accusation had some thing to do with the presidents con duct with respect to the third term nomination. anG if the president did not actually use the word liar he made use of language which more than suggest . ed that the man who made the remarks deserved the appellation.

there may be found almost every
