Instructions to the county superin-
tendents OF the state relative to TAX
ing the annual school enumeration
this spring, which have been prepared
tendem of public instruction, urge
that the greatest precautions be taken
against dishonest returns.
when the county superintendent"
says Mr.. Cotton in his circular, finds
any evidence that the enumeration is
excessive in number. or in any other
way incorrect he may require the
same to be retaken, and he may APP
point persons to perform the service,
who shall receive the same compen-
sation out of the same funds as the
person or persons who took the en-
umeration in the first place, and the
school revenue shall be distributed
upon the corrected returns.
at is the desire of the department"
continues Mr. Cotton, that every cor
poration in the state, whether city,
town or township, shall be accredited
with every person between the ages
of 6 and 81 70 whom it is legally
entitled. The question is one affect
ing the very foundation upon which
the apportionment OF the school rev.
enues is made TO townships towns
and cities The einnmeration must,
therefore, be made faithfully and ac-
curately."
In his letter TO the superintendent
Mr.. Cotton gives the following in
structions:
Do not enumerate any person BORN
since April 30, 1902. or any person
born previous to April 10 1887.
Do not erumerate employees in fac
tories, hotels business houses, ETC.,
at places of business. Such employees
must be listed at their places of resi-
dence. and should be listed by the en-
umerator provided for in the terri
tory in which such person actually
resides.
Do not enumerate children of fam
lilies that are temporary residents in
city. town or township.
Do not enumerate married people,
even when such persons are under 81
years of age.
Do not enumerate children who are
attending school in a town, township
or city, whose parents, guardians or
heads of families reside elsewhere
Minors should be listed only at &C
tual places of residence, and not at
places of business.
Require all persons having charge
of the enumeration to observe care

Pastor Blames Self When Truth is

whom had been divorced. Rev VIM.
Stephens, pastor of the Baptist church
at Garrett, Ind, resigned his pastor
ate, thinking that he had violated one
OF the laws laid down in the twenty
third chapter of Jeremiah.
Rev Mr. Stephens says that in his
conscience he cannot forgive himself,
although he is not really to blame for
the action. He intends to leave soon
for Africa as missionary, saying that
he feels there is no place in America
for him at present.
When he at first learned the fact,
Rev. Mr.. Stephens nearly collapsed

were at loss TO understand the cause
of his trouble. Despite efforts OF the

There are some very. very few
lines of business that may be said
quite independent Of all other; as
for example the weather observers.
Then there are some businesses
that flourish because of the exis-
tence of others, although there are
no tangible similarities or relation
ships. AS an instance, we might
consider the legal profession, which
goes to the extreme in that it wax
es on nearly every other business.
There are few occupations
wherein there are undoubted, but
not mutual dependencies. In other
two different kinds of business may
be so related that one may not sue.

Concentration is another process

1t may be considered that, in the

la doing so. We should run across
some pairs of trades that seem TO
be so mutually concerned with each
other, that the dependent continu-
auce of either is impossible. There
are no better illustrations of this
type of correlated occupations than
mining and metallurgy.
Consider whether either is poss-
ible alone: note how co.ordinated
they nre. In fact, they are 80 close
ly allied that frequently they are
consolidated and single plants nre
built and used to carry on opera
tons connected with extraction
and treatment of miners products.
Only recently have machinery
houses begun TO realize any dis
tinction, aud to diiferentiate equip
men,s for mining from those Of
milling.
We understand metallurgy to
mean the science and practice of
extracting metals from ores. 1t is
not so very long since the word
siyuitied only fire process of rednc-
tion and extraction: and so the
confusion of combining milling and
mining into one general class was
not unnatural. But great modern
growth in this art and science of
natalie extraction has come about
with the discovery and adoption of
and continued improvements in.
wet, chemi :al processes, static and
magnetic machines, the numerous
concentration tables and many
other devices that are now consid-
cred indispensable in any well de-
signed mill intended 10 remove
natalie minerals from ores. There
is no need to 90 on enumerating
the wonderful expansions in the
metallurgists field. The point we
wish to make now is that no min
ing man can expect to succeed to
any great extent unless he has con-
siderable knowledge of metallurgy,
nor on the contrary, can n metal
lurgist be really an all around one,
unless lie knows about the mines,
their methods, their geology and
the pr robable origins of the ores.
There are few operations or
processes which appear to occupy
common ground between metallurgy
and mining The mention of a few
of these will serve to emphasize
the intimacy of the two professions
First there is the ore dressing.
This expression is commonly used
to denote su,h treatments as crush
ing, screening, sorting and perhaps
sampling, wherein no real extrac-
ton of metal is effected, but which
the mine product undergoes treat

FHE FOREST RESERVE
A MENACE TO MINING

/
mining in the United States has
There been greater imposition
bnd injustice plAc ID upon the gen
bral mining industries of the west
fern continent than is now seen in
khe rulings of the Forestry depart
lment. 1t is a well known fact that
labove ninety per cent of all the
mines are located within the
moantain ranges west OF the great
plains, nearly all of which have
been included within the various
forest reserves which have been re-
Gently established, not by the
general government however. but
largely through the Chief Execu-
tive and his advisors.
In his wonderful Use book
Chief Pinchot tells the prospector
to proceed just rs if he was on the
public domain, which statement is
misleading and also untrue. He
also states that the forestry bust
M ~ does not interfere with the
prospector which is shown to be
untrue by his own book OF instruc-
ton and regulations and which are
scattered all over the country and
into the hands Of every Forest
Ranger on the continent.
The miner may no longer con-
suit the minin. laws enacted by
congress, but must refer to Pin
chot's books to find out what he
must expect, should lie choose t.
go prospecting within the great
private reserves, covering thousands
of miles square aad embracing The
best mining area on this continent.
1t is now problimatical question
as to whether man may obtain
from the government any title
whatsoever to mining territory the
prospector may choose to select, ii
it be within the forestry domains
which is entirely dominated by
Piuchot with his hundreds of su-
pervisors aud thousands of rangers
who insist that the rule book shall
he law and authority. 1t is only n
possibility under existing condi-
u rs that mine may be operated,
0it is no longer left Co the miner
whether his claim is worth working
or not as such remains wholly with
the forestry officer as to whether
his prospect may make a mine with
development.

would not know what these were

instructed to take samples and have
them assayed. In 80 doing he would
