A large part of the increase iii the
cost of state printing is due to an in
excusable waste. Over 100 tons of
books. pamphlets and waste paper
was sold by the superintendent Of pub
lie property during the fiscal years of
1907 and 1903 for a mere pittance, the
same having been condemned and or
dered sold under authority of law.
There is constitutional provision,
VIII h requires that all state printing
shall be done at the seat of govern
ment. which practically places all
printing establishments in the capital
city.
The state constitution should be
changed and all printing let to the
lowest bidder, regardless of locality

MINING OPERATIONS ARE
 BEING REVOLUTIONIZED

Although most of us are familiar with the divers ways in which electricity has revolutionized things on the surface oI the earth, the importance of electricity far underground in the mining world is practically unknown. And yet the
 changes and Improvements wrought under theearth by the worlds greatest force, electricity, are greater than anyone not familiar with mining work could guess.
 In the anthracite coal mines of Penn sylvania and West Virginia; in the soft coal mines of Illinois, Alabama, Kansas, Montana and Texas; in the gold and silver mines of Colorado, Mexico. Califor- mia and Alaska, and in the various other mineral excavations throughout the world, electricity takes fully as import ant a part as it does in the industrial field.
 Electricity is the ideal power for min ing operations. Where power is neces- sary in the narrow confines of a gangway or tunnel, steam and water power is inn possible; animals are too slow and re- quire too much attention; compressed air and rope drive have dozen different drawbacks and inconveniences. For thousands of years all the work in mines was done by hand or with the help of burros and mules. In these days of cleo tricity the waterfalls of the mountains and rivers are harnessed to generate elec-

THE KING OF BEASTS.

''As he grows old lion gets lazy and spiritless," says Maurice B. Kirby in an article on "The Gentle Art of Training Wild Beasts" in the October Every body's "The naughty beast who stares at the crowd outside his cage usually is as fierce of spirit as fat night watch man, who blinks out upon the dark world through the circle of light cast by the lamp at his feet. With plenty to eat, nothing to annoy him, and keeper to look after his cage, the king of beasts becomes as peaceful, portly, and self-sat- isfed as some of our latter-day human monarchs, whose ministers of army, navy, state and other things take proper care of the regal cage and see to 1t that the usual three square meals per day await the royal gullet at the proper hours. The story book impression that lions are always on the hunt in their native jungle is quite at variance with the truth. In- deed, the older lions will frequently go hungry or seek the 1eavings of another beasts kill, rather than summon the energy to hunt prey for themselves.
 Tn group of 10 or 12 trained lions, two or three young, nervous animals usually supply the act with all it's dash and spirit The others are somnambulists
 Tigers too, frequently grow lethargic with advancing years; but never to such degree as the aging lion. There is all ways pinch of ginger in the big striped cat. For that reason he makes a more spectacular performer than the lion, and usually a tougher proposition for the trainer"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-10-11

American countries, where fuel is very scarce, the water-power of the mountains has been harnessed to electric generators and the power Is transmitted to the mines. Mining in these coalless countries would be practically impossible without the aid of electricity developed from wa terpower. The new electric machinery for mine work also make profitable the working of mines which formerly had to be abandoned because it cost so much to the camps. the smelters and the refin- cries.
 Not only is electricity used for the un- derground work in mining, but it is equally as useful, convenient and eco nomical to drive the stamp mills, the con centrators and the other machinery about the camps, the smelters and the refine ries.
 Electricity is also extensively used about stone quarries, in cement works, brick and pottery establishments. in gold dredging and in all branches of the min, ing industry

At the same time 1t is apparent that the railroads are going to be giving the car foundries something to order yellow pine lumber for. The Illinois Central, through President J. T. Harahan, has just announced that an order for mil lion dollars worth of freight cars has been placed. The other roads of this section are likewise going into the market for repairs and for new rolling stock, and with these positive examples right here at home the lumber manufacturers believe they are justified in assuming that the railroads of the country generally will be buyers.
