SENATOR JOHN WALTER SMITH.
TAN COLLECTOR
BACK FROM OFFICIAL TOUR

]. II. Nevin. state bullion tax col
lector for Nevada. has returned TO
Reno from an official trip through the
southern and southeastern points of
Nevada and states that he finds all
the mining camps in those portions of
the state in a hourishing condition.
He states that many of the old
mines of Lamar and Phoebe in Lin
coin county are being re-opened and
that there is much activity in both of
those ola camps at the present time.
he states also that the old camp of
landelaria in Esmeralda lounty is be-
ing revived and that mining men who
now have hold of the properties in
that camp state that ii will again be-
come one of the best camps in Ne
vada.
New machinery and new pumps
for the Candelaria mines have beeen
ordered and the pumps are now be-
mines will be worked on a very ex-
tensiye scale and that they will soon
be producing once more.
The old mines of Candelaria were
at one time among the richest silver
mines in the United States, but when
silver declined they were closed down
and until this year were not worked
for many years.
Mr.. Nevin states that there seems
TO be renewed activity and much
prosperity all over the state and that
the growth seems to be large and
steady. \ number of Salt Lake mil
lionaires are investing in the camps
of Lincoln and Esmeralda counties
and are doing much 70 open up these

the right TO say whether his re-elec-
ton will be a violation of a custom
of debatable wisdom Mr.. Roosevelt
has never been an advocate of short
measures in any of his dealings With
the people. There is neither reason
nor consistency in his saying now
that the people shall accept three and
a half years as full term, when they
are entitled to four. The citizens of
this country are always entitled to
the full bushel of wheat. If in order
TO obtain 1t, they must take II heaped
and running over, who will object.
unless IL be those who, for personal
reasons, do not want the people to
have all that is coming to them.
The only real reason offered by
the president, why he will not again
become candidate, is that il will
violate the substance of the custom.
To insist upon such a conclusion, in
view of the facts to be considered,
would place his own personal desires
or egotistical opinions paramount to
the combined wishes and intelligence
of the Republican party and the ell
ectorate of the nation. AS a matter
of fact, the people will not have mad
the substances of two administrations
of President Roosevelt at the close OF
his present term. To prove this, all
that is necessary is to quote from the

PAPER ON
THE SUBJECT HAS AT
TRACTED WIDE ATTEN
TION-WHAT HE SAYS.

THE assertion that the sovereign
people and not Theodore Roosevelt
the individual and public servant
will decide who shall be his success
sor. is so manifest that it will not
admit of argument TO the contrary.
The views of the president, of course.
are entitled to most respectful con-
sideration, but they are not necessari-
ly conclusive, even where the ques-
ton is whether he shall succeed
himself.
THE position of the president, so
far as he personally is concerned. is
we'll known. Immediately following
the election in 1904, he issued a
statement to the people, which state
ment he reiterated on the 18th of
December last. upon the occasion of
the call of the Republican national
committee for the convention at Chi
cago. That statement is as follows:
Il am deeply sensible of the honor
done me by the American people in
thus expressing their confidence in
what | have done and have tried to
do. ! appreciate to the full the sol
emn responsibility this confidence i'm
poses upon me, and | shall do all
that in my power lies to forfeit 1t.
On the 4th of March next | shall
have served three and half years,
and these three and half years con-
stitute my first term. The wise Gus
tom which limits the president to
two terms regards the substance and

the United States circuit court on the
ground that it was an action between
citizens of different states. The fed

taken in New York and on the Pa
cific coast to try the case on the
merits in that tribunal. In the mean
time, the United States supreme court
passed on similar state of facts con-
corning the jurisdiction of the fed

again asked to have the case re-
manded IL was so ordered and the
case was again taken up in the dis
trict court of Washoe county.

on what is termed bone coal a
coal that is SO high in impurities that
il is now being thrown away by the
mine operators as worthless. In one
test ON the gas engine, it took 2.15
pounds of this supposed worthless
coal to produce horse power for an
hour. This coal had 44per cent ash
and would be considered valueless as
a producer of power in a steam en-
CINE. Another sample of this coal
produced power for LIS pounds
This coal contained 30 per cent ash
Perhaps the most encouraging
feature of these tests Is that the low
grade fuels such as Ignite and
bone" coal produced more power in
the gas engine. ton for ton than did
the best bituminous coal in the steam
engine. This would indicate vast
possibilities for the west

MILLIONS WASTED ANNUALLY IN THE MINING
AND USE OF COAL. INTERESTING EXPERIMENTS

WASHINGTON. May 23.-Ofiieials
of the United States Geological Sur
yey who are studying the fuel prob
lem make the statement that Two
hundred million tons of coal, enough
to supply the needs of the country
for six months, are being wasted
every year in the United States
through improper mining methods
This waste represents a loss of more
than two hundred million dollars. for
the coal is worth at least 81 ton.
In our investigation we find that
in the mining Operations of this
country nearly one-half of the total
coal supply Is left underground,
said Mr. J. 4. Holmes. chief of the
Teehnologie Branch. This coal is
left as pillars TO support the roof of
the mine or because it is of inferior
quality, only the best part of the coal
icing removed from many beds.
The waste is also due TO the fact that
the working out of the lower beds of
coal first, in some cases breaks and
renders impraeticable the subsequent
mining of the adjacent higher coal
beds

ONLY SPINNING THE CREAM.

VAIL
We are Swimming the cream of the
natural resources of the country.
We are using the best and cheapest
of our supplies. Each of the succeed
ing generations will obtain its needed
general supply, but each will pay
higher prices for the reason that
owing to the increased depth mining
will he continually more expensive
and more dangerous.
II is believed that an increasingly
large part of this waste is pre-
yentable. In most European coal pro-
ducing countries coal waste has been
reduced TO minimum by the in
PRODUCTION of improved methods of
mining. In Vancouver. British
Columbia. | am told ninety eight
per cent of the coal is mined.
The archaeological Branch of the
Geological Survey Is now engaged in
investigations looking toward a re-
duction of the waste in mining OPP
erations and also to a better utiliza-
ton of the coal that is mined. The
success of the government in the
latter field is told in bulletin just
issued by the United States Geologi~
cal Survey on the work of the United
States Fuel testing plant, which
until the early part of 1907 was
operated at st. Louis Mo. Goals
from all over the country were tested
in the steam engine and gass en-
CINE in order to determine their eff
ticiency. The results with the gas
engine were extremely gratifying
F'ifty-six different bituminous GOALS
were tested in the steam boiler and
engine and gas producer and engine.
and the figures show that on an
average 1t took nearly three times as
much coal to produce a horse power
in the steam engine as in the gas
engine The actual figures for the
average from all Goals were, 157
pounds of coal burned to produce one
horse power for an hour in the gas
engine and AS pounds in the steam
engine. The best coal used produced
horse power per hour in the gas en-
while the steam engine used 241
pounds or 243 times as much as the
gas engine.
In five tests of lignites Can inferior
quality of coal found In the west, the
gas engine required 237 pounds of
coal to produce horse power for an

steam engine. The best results was
