Aside from his repudiated ICON

which he deserves punishment.
But we hope the Colorado court
will be able to dispose Of him so
that he will not be sent back

enough OF the trouble by the time
it disposes of the Pettibone and

Couer d'AIene MiIIionaires.

Mines and Metals, published at
Wallace, publishes a brief review
of the mining men who have ac-
quired handsome fortunes by
making investments and operat-
ing in the Couer d'Alene District
in Northern Idaho. In its list it
names eight multi-millionaires,
half d dozen worth a million and
upward, several men worth half
a million and half a score who
have accumulated each more
than $25O,000, with lesser for
tunes credited to smaller operat-
ors. Spokane, which proudly
boasts of being the metropolis of
the "Inland Empire" is now the
home OF "a number of these for
tunate investors. When it is re-
membered that it is less than a
quarter OF a century ago that
Jim Wardner and other venture
some prospectors found their way
into the then wilds of Shoshone
county, and that nearly every
man, who has amassed Il fortune
there since, went there a compar-
atively poor prospector, it may
be realized what wonderful dis
trict that has proven to be.

The great foundations of the
country are solid as rock-sound
currency, good crops, favorable for
eign commerce industrial and trans
portation industries profitable, do
nestle trade active and the great
mass of the people in all parts of
the country prosperous.
Owing to protracted period of
prosperity, credits were expanded
to such an extent that the boarding
of money-the basis of credits
created a dearth of currency and
necessitated contraction.
In this contraction persons who
were borrowing too much money in
the conduct of speculative opera
tons have been compelled to liqui-
date, and SO far as Wall street is
concerned the selling by bears has
largely contributed to the enforced
selling.
The spectators necessity is the
investors opportunity. AS will be
seen by comparison of present
prices Of those prevailing just a
year ago, good securities can now
be obtained at prices that yield an
income one-half or three-fourths
greater than was possible a year
ago.
The timid investor may remark
that affairs are still unsettled.
Quite true, but when they have set
tied down to a normal basis securi-
ties assuredly will not be selling at
present prices. He will have lost
his opportunity.

A Larger Use of Silver.

During October the United States
mints coined $l0,364, 72Oin double
eagles. The silver coinage was
$469,000 in half dollars, $4,000
in quarter dollars and $625,OO0 in
dimes, making a total of 81 ,604, 900.
There was also minted 100000 in
pennies. The total coinage for the
month was $12,06S,72O. In addi-
ton, the United States minis struck
off for use in the Philippines 927,-
900 peso pieces, SSS,000 80 cen
tavos, 100000 20 centavos and
100000 10 centavos; a total of
4,820,000 pieces. These figures in
dictate that the government will
constantly increase the coinage of
silver, and this in turn will stimu-
late the price. Conditions are such,
together with the favoring senti-
ment Of the people all over the
world, as to convince the most OBJ
fuse that the leading nations are
going to give larger use for silver
and restore it to about a dollar an
ounce.-Mines and Metals.

has been framed by the attorneys
defending Mrs. Bradley and put
nd against the insanity experts
for an answer. If the lawyers
don't prove that Mrs. Bradley

seemingly intent on driving the

Governor Kibbey will probably be surprised to learn that his sug- gestions in regard to new law taxing mining companies is meet. ing with general approval by the managers of many of the largest mining companies that do not wish to avoid taxation provided all com. panies are taxed proportionatcly, and other enterprises are also tax ed at a reasonable valuation. They do object, however, to being sing. led out for taxation out of propor- tion to all other enterprises. Clifton Era.

A bill has been introduced in council allowing members of town councils the sum of S5 for each day they attend meetings of the town council. 1t is said that the idea of drawing pay for each meet ing germinated from the Flagstaff
 town council. A protest to the legislature against the passage of the bill has been made by the citi- zens of Flagstaff. The protest was signed by nearly every tax payer in the town. There are a goodly number of men in Flag staff, good men and true, that are willing to devote the time neces- sary to attend to the towns affairs without compensation. The bill affects all the smaller towns in Arizona, and if 1t became a law the councilmen of Flagstaff could, if they saw fit, draw per diem for three hundred days in the year, at a cost to the town of ten thousand dollars. If they were paid for reg ular meetings only, the increased cost would be five hundred dollars
