WAGES ARE ADVNCED

Commencing his. week al miners,
muckers and top men employed at
the Little Florence Lease in GOldfield
will receive bonus OF one and one
half shifts each week. This action
was taken by he company because
of the short lie of the lease and the
fact that the company was compelled
to send the men into ore Slopes
where powder smoke makes it dis
agreeable to work until the air is
cleared. In the big mines this is not
necessary as air connections are
made, and generally, before stopping
commences. This brings the wages
up to 81 Sc a shift. The other leases
on the florence, the Florence Annex
and the Rogers Syndicate, will prob
ably follow suit.

Blame for Delay in the Lee Let

Who let Lee Let off? That is the
question among the various ones in

wouId-be briber of the police one year
ago, who is still awaiting trial, al
though indicted by the grand jury in

The County Attorney denies that it
has been through any neglect on his
part that the big Chinaman has been
footloose so long. The Attorney Cen
eraI says that the matter has passed
out of his hands and is being looked
after by Mr.. Cathcart. The ex-Attor-
ney General says that his department
tried to bring the case to trial on
two occasions, and Detective Taylor,
the bribee, denies having had any,
thing to do with postponing the trial
and has been anxious to have 1T

CRITICISM

That man who can keep himself clear of negative criticism of the world is unjust. Fault-fnding is not criticism. "All truth is yalu- able" says Johnson, land satirical criticism may be considered as use- ful when 1t rectities error and im- proves judgment He that refnes the public taste is a benefactor. Our trouble is thai prophet is not without honor, save in his own country and in his own house, and that familiarity breeds contempt. The living author is judged by his poorest productions. He must be dead and buried before his works are appreciated, then he is judged by his best works. When his eyes are closed to all earthly things, when his lips are sealed in ever- lasting silence, we give him the need of praise he deserved while in the flesh, and sing hosannas to his name, for labors which merited them while he was still living.
 What sad commentary on the selfshness and jealousy of human nature! When he was among men doing his work honestly and meek ly he was but little esteemed and WAS called "a penny a-liner" In ridicule. But when he can no longer labor, when he can no long, CT hear our praise or our cengure We discover wonderful beauties in bis writings.-Ex.
