Dr. Williamson, Promoter.

pr. J. w. Williamson, author of the Windy Point mine, at Mineral Park, arrived from Los Angeles last night on his way to the property. Dr. Will iamson is the man that the Los An geles Times has been showing up in an unenviable light on account of his attempted promotion of this property. The prospectus and statements sent out by the doctor are so absurd that none but the rankest suckers would think of biting at them. The allega- tion is made that the ores from the mine run 4S6.6 ounces silver and 3.4 ounces gold per ton, which he sizes up at total value of 4O6.63$, and that six men can take from the mine at the present time 4725 pounds of this ore daily, valued at 95S. .73$, at cost of mining, milling and treatment of but 62$, leaving net profit of S96.7 daily from the labor of these six men. But that is not all: The doctor by this wonderful method of his is also to make from this same ore 1460 pounds of steel, superior to the best Swedish product, which will have an average value of from 30 cents per pound to one dollar per pound, or a value of 1888; and also, Portland cement, 2l barrels, valued at 3$ per barrel, total of 63$; and still again, the saving of sulphur, IFS, which makes grand to- tai of by-product value of 540S, or a tatal from this 4725 pounds of Windy Point ore of l436. 73$. If the doctor could make any more out of this ore he surely would have said so in his prospectus, but it appears that this was the limit. But he continues to explain in this wonderful prospectus and to elucidate as follows:
 "Let us consider for a moment the values contained in the Windy Point mine. This is a valuable proposition in itself, and in six months time tie property can be so developed that the daily output will be somewhere about l9,OO0$, which will equal a profit of 100 per cent on a capitalization of B. O0), ,OO0$ annually on the mine alone, or lO$ per share on the 500,000 shares, par value Is each"
 The doctor is displaying to the peo. pie of Kingman letter written by Anson H. Smith to one of his corre- spondents, at Santa Monica, California, in answer to a query regarding this promotion that it was a rank fraud out agreeing with this statement.

venet Conservatory of Music
The violin and orchestral departments
are under the direction of Charles Proch-
now, who has had thorough training,
commencing the study of music when
still very young and having studied un-
der several great masters. He is a
graduate of the Michigan Conservatory
of Music. and later studied with Desc
Nemes, the great Hungarian violinist,
who was not only a teacher, but a
friend, and always ready to give his
kind advice.
Mr. Prochnow, besides being violin
ist, is thorough musician. Mr.. Proch-
now possesses marked ability in the art
of teaching, as he sympathetically
studies the needs of each individual
pupil and applies the necessary instruc-
tion accordingly.
Orchestra Glass
All pupils studying orchestral instru-
ments, and who are far enough adj
vanced, may join the orchestra

are continued throughout the year.
The objects of the orchestra are to give
all qualified players of orchestral in
struments the opportunity to acquire
the practical knowledge, the routine
and general experience necessary to a
good orchestral player, and also to
encourage those who possess natural
musical talent to learn such instru-
ments as the oboe. bassoon, etc, a

ment of the notes of the national bank.
The Government, of course, stands for all
the people. Consequently, the curious
situation is brought about in which the
people furnish the credit which makes the
national bank note good, and they furnish
it free of charge, and they pay high
price to get the use of it. A more one
sided, unjust system of currency it would
be hard to conceive.
The national banker not only puts his
money where it does not have to pay any
tax, national, city, county or municipal.
but he puts it where it is at no risk what
ever from fire or food, chance or change
lie draws interest upon it, which is paid
in advance. He gets the privilege of the
free use of the tax money which belongs
to his less favored fellow-citizens He
gets in paper currency an amount equiv
alent to the sum he has invested in his
bonds, and he draws compound interest
from his fellow-citizens upon this money
at the same time that he draws interest
on the same sum represented by the bond.
Thus, he is drawing interest twice on the
same money, and his less favored fellow
citizens are paying interest twice on the
same sum of money.
(Note-By late act, a national bank
can now be started on a capital of $25,-
ooo)

INDIRECT TAXATION.

The comptroller of the state of New York
promises to show in his annual report that
the state has experienced one of the most
promising years in its existence. His claims
are based largely on the fact that the receipts
from indirect taxation have broken all rec
ords. The claim suggests fallacy common
in official and popular circles, that revenue Sc
cured by indirect taxation is net gain to the
state and no increase Of burden upon the peo-
pie of the commonwealth. Ordinarily, legis-
latures think they have solved financial
problem when they discover some new means

Il Glance at the Past.
Sir Harry Vane!

Sir Harry zane!
Who remembers the name? Not one in
Million yet he was the first English
Statesman who ever distinctly proclaimed
the doctrine of Liberty of Conscience;
just as he was the first Statesman who
contended that the people should be pro-
tected from government encroachment by
written Constitution.
This was more than three hundred
years ago.
We today enjoy the fruits of his
thought, his labor, and his sacrifice.
For preaching the doctrine that the peo-
pie were the real rulers, and the govern
ment mere servant of the people, vested
with certain limited powers, Sir Harry
Vane was tried for treason, and, in def
ance of law, was condemned to death.
Here is the sentence which venal
court passed upon him:
"That he should be hanged cut down
while living, his body cut open, and his
bowels burned before his face; that his
head should be severed from his body
and his body cut into four quarters"
Out of his tender mercy, his Gracious
Majesty, King Charles the Second, re-
mitted all the sentence except the part
which required Vane's head to be cut off.
Yes, you carelessly enjoy and carelessly
lose precious rights of government
which cost your ancestors their lives to
win.

Editorial Notes.
By 7. D. WATSON.

Wall street has evolved another plan
to force the western bankers into further
submission. Their game is to force the
commission houses to refuse checks
drawn on western banks and they think
that will force western bankers to send
more money to New York When that
money is sent to New York and drafts
are drawn against it, it will be paid in
clearing house checks, which are from I
to s per cent discount. Will the western
bankers submit to this further tyranny?
II. H. Tibbles, in The Investigator.
Until the present banking system is
changed, the Western banks, like the
Southern banks, may have to submit to
such tyranny. The only way to put an
end to it is to put an end to the system
that permits it.
Thomas w. Lawson, of 'Frenzied Fl
nance" fame, promises to run presiden-
tia1 ticket of his own in 1908.
Roosevelt for President, and Johnson
for Vice President is the way Mr.. Law
son has it planned AS Mr.. Roosevelt has
announced that he will not be candidate,
and Mr. Johnson is a Democrat, Mr. Law
sons ticket is not apt to materialize.
After careful consideration, the Jeffer-
sonian has located the biggest fool, the
veriest ass, that ever lived.

why they should not stand, useful and

ciples are eternally true; and they should

ADMIRAL PRAISED
THE JAPANESE COOK

On the occasion of the reception Civ
EN- by Justice and Mrs. Ballou to the
officers of the Pacific fleet the chief
decoration of the supper table was a
large representation made in cake and
confectionery of the flagship Tennessee.
This was made by s. Okinaka, who is
Judge Ballou s cook. Not only was it
triumph of the confectioner' art, but
the details Of the armored cruiser had
been worked out with considerable pre-
cision. The arrangement of fighting
tops, tunnels, turrets and guns was ex
actly in accord with the original Smoke
poured from the tunnels, the American
flags flew at the bow and stern, and
Rear Admiral Sebree's flag at the fore.
Admiral Sebree was so pleased with the
exactness of the representation and
cleverness of its execution that he sent
for Okinaka, shook HANDS with him and
congratulated him upon his work. Ad-
miral Sebree declined to cut the cake
that night, wishing to save it for an
other occasion, and at his request it
was taken down to his flagship. Here
it was used as the chief ornament at
an elaborate dinner given by the Rear
Admiral on the quarterback of his ship
upon their last night in port, where it
was greatly admired by the guests. Dur
ing the dinner the ship went into ac-
ton, as was evidenced by the burning
of explosive matches which had been
fixed near the guns, At the close Of
the dinner the cake was cut by Admiral
Sebree and the ingenuity with which
it had been constructed was still more

ly pleased with the mounting of the
rapid fire guns in the fighting tops,

chambers of commerce of the Pacific
Coast to Japan, was one of the speakers
at banquet on Tuesday evening, Octo-

address Of welcome and Mr.. Dohrmann,
of San Francisco, made the formal re-
ply. The Times speaks of Mr.. Cooke
as follows:
'Mr. C. NJ. Cooke, of Honolulu, was
first called upon and spoke upon bank
ing in the Hawaiian Islands, with par
ticular reference to the enterprise of
the Yokohama Specie Bank He placed
on record the fact that the Honolulu
branch did its duty in work for the
best interests of the community, and
also the fact of the Shokin Ginko join
ing all the banks of Hawaii last Octo-
Der during the money stringency. so
that they were enabled to keep their
coin from being shipped out of the
country and, consequently. every check
on every bank was paid in gold thus
