THE IDAHO SCIMITAR.

the mountain states can be worked for the good OF
mankind in opposition to the wishes Of the coal
monopoly The railroads will not carry coal for
independent producers.
1t is possible that at some future time the vast
deposits of western Canada may be opened to the
border and railroads built that will the
consumers of this region more economically than
they are now served, under the dictation of mono
polistic carriers that serve monopolistc coal mine
operators.
This wonderful deposit of Canadian coal is dis
cussed in the current issue of The Technical World
which says:
According to Mr.. McEvoy, the company's geo
ogist, something like 22,OOOOOoooO tons stored
away in overlapping the Rocky Mountains
and embracing $50 square miles The region ex-
tends from Elk river, branch of the Kootenai on
the west, to Livingston range, in Alberta on the
east In locality only few miles south of Fer
ME- the coal beds have total thickness of 216 feet
single layers varying in this respect from few
inches to forty feet Still farther to the eastward
in the western part of the territory of Assiniboa
there is said to be fully much more COAL making
an aggregate of about As 000,000,000 tons.
At the present time the United States produces
nearly or quite 400 900 tons of coal annually In
the heart of the continent, just north OF the Aer1-
can border Canada seems to have more than hun
dred times as much as is mined in this country in
a year The other coal deposits IN the dominion,
in Nova Scotia and Vancouver Island, yielded
quantity in 1900 valued at $12,000,Ooo On the as,
sumption that the output has since been doubled and
that coal at the mouth of the pit is worth 81 ton,
the total product should be not far from 25ooo
600 tons a year These figures give some idea OF
the Importance of the coal fields of the Crows Nest
Pass district and of western Assiniboa. In the op-
eratons of mining there is great waste and Mr..
McEvoy may have unlntent1onally magn1tled the
amount which can be actually obtained there never,
theless it is evident that the stores of fuel referred
to constitute magnificent addition to the worlds

Directing to Speaker Cannon.

Milwaukee Journal: Speaker Cannon's rule may end
sooner than most people expect For thing it is
not impossible that will be terminated by the action
of democratic majority in the house. At the last
congressional election the democrats gained about
forty seats without any particular reason The pop
u1ar indignation Speaker Cannons attempt to
constitute himself the government of the United
States the disgust that the "donothing" policy OF
the present congress has excited and other influences
that affect the minds of the people may reverse the
majority in the house and in that way sweep Cannon
out of power
There is another and stronger prospect OF relief
Democrats and independent republican members may
unite to organize the house This was actually pro-
posed by the democratic members of the house Just
previous Cannons last election to the speakershp
Congressman Weisse of Wisconsin, one of the min
ory party MEMBERS states that his colleagues agreed
to take the STEP and that thirty republican votes would
have insured success. At that time the republican
votes needed not forthcoming But since then
the storm of popular wrath has burst over Cannons
head, and all the country efforts are being
made to prevent the reelection of congressman who
have supported Cannon. In not few cases republ1-
can candidates have pledged themselves to vote
against Cannon for speaker He will be defeated by
members of his own party if the people vote they
feel If, by combination of democrats and indie
pendent republicans, progressive republican shall
be elected to the speakership then at the head of
every committee there will be progressive legs-
lator, and the day of the gag and the rule of the
interests will end. Representative government will
be restored so far as the lower house of congress
concerned.

Coal in Abundance.

Not far from the northern boundary line OF Idaho,
within the dominions of King Edward, there is stored
an enormous deposit of coal and some of it is said to
be of the anthracite quality.
Little is known in a general way about this
valuable formation but it will become better known
as the demand of the western slope increases and the
government of the United States becomes broad
enough in its views to permit the people within its
boundaries to enjoy the of their neghbors
without paving tribute to some monopoly in the
name of the protective tariff.
It is we'll enough known that no coal deposit IN

1T LOOKED INNocENT-BuT.

The Herald received a letter today
from a man in Mexico, who states
that he has been in public life there
SO long he was deluged with letters
asking about the anti-foreign mining
law, etc, in Mexico, and assuring all
who have made such inquiry from An
derson county that the law is all right,
or would be all right, and that fabu-
lous fortunes were being made and
are to be made by Americans in Mexi-
co mines He says he is not an eX-
pert in mining, but gives the name of
another person whom lie claims will
give safe advice on mining, and can
tell prospective investors where they
can put their money in dead sure
things, etc. The letter looks innocent,
but it is undoubtedly loaded. and a
thing especially designed for suckers
and easy marks. The writer's expert
.elce in two years.life in Mesien con-
need hil4tiiat if there was one other
country besides the United States
where mining swindles, ETC., were car
ried on unbridled, that that country is
Mexico. The government, perhaps,
cannot help it, but it is fact that
lot of renegades down there have wax
ed fat on money extracted from suck
ers, and through schemes perfectly ia
miliar to thousands of people-mining
propositions, coffee and rubber planta-
lions, orange orchards, pineapple
groves, etc.
In fact, there are more scoundrels
out of the pen, both in the United
States and Mexico, than have ever
been convicted In making invest
ments in mining stock you had better
get the advice of well-known experts
who are not interested in the property,
and after you have this, then keep
your money It. is safer in your
pocket.

GROWS HAIR ON BALD HEADS.
Bald Headed People May Get New
Chance In Life.

In these days when youth is the
moving factor in business; when a
man makes his mark at thirty-five and
+, is ready to retire at forty-five;; when
| business houses pension the man we
call middle aged" rather than allow
his tagging influence to introduce up.
on the commercial rush, a bald head
is almost fatal to any mans hopes.
/ The following must therefore prove in
teresting to people who are losing
their hair or who are bald.
Resorcin is one of the latest and
most effective germ killers discovered
by science, and in connection with
Beta Napthol, which is both germicid-
al and antiseptic, combination is
formed which destroys the germs
which rob the hair of it's nutriment,
and also creates a clean and healthy
condition of, the scalp, which pre-
vents tfsa Of fre germs
Pilocarpin is well known agent
for restoring the hair to its natural
color, where the loss of color has
been due to a disease of the scalp
Yet, it is not coloring matter or dye.
This combination of curatives mixed
with alcohol as stimulant perfects
the most effective remedy for hair
and scalp troubles.
The famous Rexall "93" Hair Tonic
is chiefly composed of Resorcin, Beta
Napthol and Pilocarpin. 1t makes the
scalp healthy, nourishes the hair,
stimulates the follicles Where the
head is already bare, it enters the
follicles, revitalizes the roots, supplies
nourishment and stimulates. new
growth.
We want you to try a few bottles of
ReXall "93" Hair Tonic, on our per-
sonal guarantee that the trial will
not cost you penny if it does not
give you absolute satisfaction That
is proof of our faith in this remedy
and it should indisputably demon
strate that we know what we are

they are just spuds, and thrown out

That one potato would make four

Those cans, at 10 cents each, would
