OF operating mining engineers, and
no physical report or examination of
the Mitchell mine, including maps
and sampling plans, is in the hands
of the present administration. To
me it seems impossible that an oper-
ating mine can be conducted without
such knowledge: or that the stock
holders, VINO are almost amateurs in
mining, can recognize and re-finance
the company without the aid OF con-
su'ting er gineers.
Flu, thertnore, that the re )rgariza-
tion committee should, in circular,
not altogether complimentary t. Mr..
.litchell, assert mat it has made
a physica: examinations of the prop
e-tv, when it has done no such thing,
is beyond my comprehension In
justice t. Mr.. Nit chell 1t might be
said that while he was in active ad-
ministraticn of the mine, he was un-
doubtedly in possession of data con-
corning the physical nature Of the
property, and as a mining man as
sumed the technical responsibility
himself.
These comments are not written
from any personal interest. | gave

pany Furthermore, | have only a
kindly feeling for Mr.. Mitchell, the
unfortunate stockholders and the or
garization interests. 1t does seem,
however. that the condition is one
that justifies the inquiry whether an
investment Of $S,0OO,000 in a mining
enterprise does not call for the en-
ployment OF competent. technical ad-
vice There is well founded preju-
dice among mining men about having
their ground turned down in the pros
pective stage by incompetent engi-
neers, but when the prospects become
mines it certainly seems as if engi-
neering is a necessity and tina. ANA

Lincoln county rancher struck an
artesian well the other day and APP
piled to Controller Eggers for the
bounty offered by the state for ar
tesian wells. Instead of drawing the
warrant, the controller referred the
matter to Attorney General Stoddard
and he has rendered an opinion that
the low authorizing the bounty is un-
constitutional. The defect should be
remedied at the next session of the
legislature. No more important de-
yelopmen- can come about for the
state as a whole than that of mines
and water, the one providing for in
dustrial activity and expansion and
the other for the development of the
vast agricultural resources which in
the next ten years will add millions
annually to the income of the state
and operate immensely to it's advan-
tage through the reduction of costs
of living. BY all means a bounty on
artesian water Indeed bounty
would not be amiss for every success

California. Mr.. Williams last week
introduced the Blaine bill, which has

come in Tor censure. Suggestion OF
reduction of tariff, much less re.
moval, throws the average Califor-
nian, especially the highwayman OF
the southern part of the state, into
spasms which call for nothing short
of lynching. Time is not far distant
however, when the gentlemen, than
whom none are louder in criticism
of all trusts but their own, will take
some of their own medicine

Mr.. Hill hits the nail on the head.
A great deal is to be said for the
practical miner, but he must have the
aid of the engineer if his enterprise
makes permanent success. The
Mitchells afford excellent example.
They are without question good prac-
teal miners and smeltermen, but
their failure to employ technical skill
in connection with their enterprises
has been very costly both to them
selves and their following. Such ex-
periences are in strong contrast with
the manner of procedure employed
by the mining interests that have
of which the employment of the high
est knowledge, practical and techni-
cal, is responsible. AS a result, tbs

Ely property values are probably
as low as they will ever get. They
have had their boom, however, and
may not be expected to again go to
the exorbitant figures which at one
time prevailed Ely City property Is
the more valuable at this time and
will remain So No boom is in pros
pect nor likely there, but natural and
steady growth on a big scale is as
certainly ahead as is the rising and
the setting of the sun.

The treasury statement of money
in circulation throughout the coun-
try shows a gain of $139, 167,32S for
the year and $131, S45,SS7 since No
vember |, this gain being made up
in great part of an increase in ma
tional bank notes. The actual in
crease in gold coin in the country in
November was $56,11S,7G6 and to
this sum will be added the gold now
being received from abroad, which by
the close of the year bids fair to
raise the supply of gold in the coun-
try, as compared with two months
ago, to the extent of more than $780,
100000. One thing would seem Ger.
tain, and that is that these imposing
figures point to an era of decidedly
easier conditions after the turn oil

HOMESTEAD LANDS.


In these times when it would
appear that men are searching the
world over for unCccupied lands,
and when migration from United
States to western Canada is one of
the current wonders, it may be Of
interest to many people to know
that there is still i'm Michigan 2S5,
4l9 acres of government land all
surveyed and ready for entry by tie
homesteader.
ManyJof these tracts are as good
for agricultural purpose as any land
in the universe. and maps of each
township may easily be procured
from any land Office and letters to
'the registers or receivers will give
oil information desired.
The examination which the federal
land Office has made OF Michigan
lands still open for entry shows the
number of acres 10 each county and
the quality of the soil expressed in
general terms. Thus Altoona county
has 1855 acres but is pronounced
light soil, and therefore not good.
Alger has 1888 acres, Alpena 3,6l3.
and Antrim 100, all recorded as fair
farming land. In this same class
Charlevoix has 1880 acres. Che
boygan 4,0Gl, Clare 2,546, Luce II,
839, Mackinac 4,35S, Manistee BIOS.
Mason CTS, Mecosta 49, Moutmorency
l6,3O7, Newaygo .l20, Presque Isle
II ,346 and Schoolcraft 1881.
OF what is denominated good
farming land Arenac county has 32i
acres, Benzie lD4, Grand Traverse
600, LeeIanau ! 1883, Massaukee 1920
Oceana 1912, Ogema 1916, Otsego
1920 and Wexford l2j.
Then there is another class put
down in the records as timbered
farming lands. These may or may not
be good farming lands, but the expert
say the chances are in favor of the
good class in almost every instacne.
In this class Baraga county has 8 .836
acres, Chippewa 40 150 Delta 1919
Dickinson 2TS0. Houghton 1913,
Iron 2.145, Ontonagon 1871.
Marquette, 20,744, Menominee 897.
| In the class denominated as mostly
light soil there is considerable
acreage. 'Gladwin county has $40
acres, Gogebic l57, Iosco 36,96l,
| Kalkaska 2,677, Keweenaw IL, ,56l

In response to a letter written TO
Supt. Fitch of the South Shore rail
road, concerning the installation of
electric lights in the new depot, the
writer's received an answer in the
affirmative. Consequently it has

several arc lamps will be suspended,
and henceforth the travelling public
will be able to reach this village
with some degree Of safety, and not
be compelled to group their way in
