A MINING TEMPLE

1t has been for some time an ain
of the American Mining Congress t.
pay handsome tribute to the mining
industry by erecting in Denver a fine
building to be known as the Tempe OF
Mining. This has been one OF The fav
orable ideas of President j. Richards
in response to a demand made by
delegates to the congress at Portland
at the time Denver @as chosen as the
permanent headquarters of the organ
ization. At the session last fall a
delegate made inquiry as to what steps
had been taken to erect a building, and
Judge Richards replied that he first
step, then in progress. was to procure
a law in the State of Colorado that
would insure a permanent legal foun-
dation for the temple, looking to per-
manency. His opinion was that a min
ing temple should be provided for in
a h~ap-hazard way, lest some future
contingency should vanquish it's pur-
pose. Ii business mn were to be ex-
pected to contribute to such a cause

quently been known to fall into pri-

II is in accord with the idea that
the hast general assembly of Colorado
passed a law providing for an APP
preparation for the mining temple, not
with the idea of making it appear that
the building would belong to the State
of Colorado, but of exempting it from
taxation and encouraging the makers
of the mines to recognize it as a per
mapent monument to them. Since the

SOME FATHERLY ADVICE FROM
THE NEVADA STATE JOURNAL

Some fatherly advice has recently
been handed out to the Daily Silver
State by the Nevada State journal OF
Reno. 1t happened because this paper
recently printed an opinion from the
Carson Appeal concerning reasons for
the Journals campaign against the
gambling element Of Reno. The Jour-
nal saws that the Silver State should
stop clipping it's editorials, but that If
it must take its %opionions second
handed they should be ON the side OF
morality and dec,ney and not favor
ing immoral conditions. All OF which
il good wholesome advice.
The editorial writer on the journal,
sitting in his high-backed and thick
cushioned chair, pounding out his copy
on a late model typewriter and hang
ing his copy at the side of his desk
with no further thought OF how IT Is
to find it's way into the newspaper for
the persual of the public, must not get
the wrong impression that editorial
writing is all that the editor OF the
country newspaper has to do. Take
our own case for instance. Our work
fIuctuates between gasoline engine,
head man, makeup man news gatneref
and the devil. Often on busy days IL
The daily silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1903-1907, 1907-05-27

becomes necessary, so to speak, to Dor
row the opinions of brothers Of the
press for the editorial columns, but if
this paper has failed to give proper
or, dit 4or it's reprinted matter the fault
has not been intentional.
All this, however, leads up to the
second question raised by the Journal,
and that our attitude in reference to
gambling.
Far be it from our real intention to
voice a sentiment of disapproval for
the campaign nov being carried on by
the Journal. No matter what the real
reasons for the attitude Of the Journal
may be, and certainly few there are
who would be ungenerous enough to
attach to it any Interior motives, the
effect can not but be a benefit to Reno
in particular, and the State in general.
Nevada is yet in a formative stage,
and while the people have not yet be-
come settled and united strongly
enough on the side of morality to make
an absolute restriction of gambling
practicable, yet it certainly is time
that attention in this respect were
directed toward Reno, the Monte Carlo
of all our gambling bells.

DECORATION DAY.

Next Thursday, May 30, is Decora-

fight, a fight to a finish. On Memorial

congress voted that Denver was the
natural center for the purpose in view
it was equally natural that the State
of Colorado should accept the respon
sibility in good faith and satisfy the
mining States that they will be sup
porting something genuine. The genu
~ineness of the American Mining Con
gress is not questioned by the mining
States, but the future genuineness OF
a venture so important as the mining
temple has rightly been settled at this
time.
The essential feature of this mining
temple will be the gathering together
of permanent exhibits, in which every
mining camp of the country will be
represented. 1t will be possible for
any person desiring to be informed to
find in one place all the facts indica
tive of the mining activities of North
America. This in itself is sufficient
to commend the notion to the attention
Of any one. The mining industry Ger
tainly deserves such an institution, for
to it has been due the upbuilding of
the West more than any other single
influence, the temple could well be
decorated with busts and portraits.
An extensive library would be another
feature that might be mentioned, but
it is not the intention here to detail
the many possibilities of the proposed
institution.
1t is to be hoped that the representa-
tives of the mining industry will enter
heartily into this movement, as it IS
worthy of the cost.-The Daily Mining

Newspapers would be able to work

something for the public welfare, a
hundred influential citizens would
each write ten word letter express
ing their approval; and the next day
hundred more would write and
keep up the bombardment for week
or more. There would be no such
thing as resisting a force like that,
and that is one OF the chief functions
of u newspaper-to crystalize and
focalize public sentiment. 1t should
be a channel OF communication for
all the people-the medium through
which citizens speak to each other
and speak as one man. Ii the people
would but use the newspapers in this
