An lDtereStin0 Parallel

The Bible tells the story of Demetri.
us, the shrine-maker Of Ephesus, who
saw In the gospel of the true God that
Paul came to preach an end of his
profitable business as a maker of
shrines of Diana. Demetrus realized
that If Diana ceased to be the goddess
OF the Ephesians, they would no long
er worship at her shrines of silver and
gold. He. did not put his protest on
the true ground that if Paul's teach
ings were accepted his business would
be interfered with. He was too
shrewd for that. He warily appealed
to the religious patriotism Of the peo-
pie, and raised up mob against Paul
by crying out, Great is Diana, the
goddess Of the Ephesians, ard this
man has come to DESTROY her!" So
we hear to-day protests against en-.
forcing the law relating to corpora
lions and tending to prevent evil prac-
tees. The protest is usually placed
on the ground that prosperity is in
terfered with. No legitimate business
can be hurt by eliminating the evil
that may be in it. The insurance
companies and the beefpackers are in.
better position today that they would
have been had they not gone through
the cleansing process.-Governor Folk
OF Missouri on Respect for Law" in

ed to its list Of announcements that Of
MI. L. M. Lewis who aspires to the
office of County Auditor. Mr.. Lewis
states that he has been a resident of

does not state in his card however
that he has during that time been
employed at clerical work almost all
the time and that his training has
been such as to fit him for the position

The attempt IN the fife NJ Chief

The attempt on the life of Chief
Of Police Ship1ey, of Chicago by an
ANARCHIST is another proof that these
cranks are becoming so numerous that
it is becoming a great menace to our
country. 1t may seem at this distance
that the government of Russia is
severe but when it is taken into con-
sideration that this country is the
veritable hot bed of this sort of human
parasites it can not be wondered at
that they take drastic measures in
dealing with them.

SHOULD WE CHANGE,

AS we sat at the meeting of the city
council Monday evening and heard that
body considering the work for the
coming year we could but imagine what
amount OF work would be retarded by
putting new people into these positions
at the coming election. The men who
compose the city council, from the
mayor down, have planned the work
to be done the coming summer, it is
quite large, and they are thoroughly
conversant with every detail of it as
well as what has been done in the
past. With this in view it occurred
to us that 1t would be the height of
folly to make change at this time.
That is OF course if the members who
are now serving will accept another
term. There is bound to be some new
added to this branch of our
city government, but it seems to US
that 1t should be as little as possible.
We're it lucrative position to serve
as mayor or city alderman, it would
be a different thing, but it is conceded
that the compensation is nothing to
compare with the time devoted to the
duties of the Office, and when we find
good, competent men who are willing
to devote their time to the advance
ment OF our city, it seems to US it is
mighty good plan to let them serve
as long as it is agreeable to them.

1t is very commendable that the

free from mud singing and SANDER

No new copper smelling works Of
any great consequence were com.
pleted IN the United States in 1907.
There was large increase in the
zinc smelling capacity of the United
States in 1907. Bartlesville, Okla,
now ranks second to lola in number
Of works and rstOfts.
There are more than 900 pf6ddct-
i've gold mines In California, large
and small, and over 1000 more
which are in the development stage
or held by assessment work.
The, greatest value of the diamond
drill is in prospecting for large
bodies Of minerals such as coal and
iron. By means of this core drlll the
thickness, extent and quality of the
mineral can be determined at "A
comparatively low cost.
The output in 1907 of the south
eastern Missouri lead district is es-
tImated at $4,000 short tons, approx
imatIug $40, 1900 in value. This is
