it takes stand on any question. Any
other citizen can do so without injuring
his business, because he is not put on
record. When a. newspaper publishes
anything it is there in black and white
and no way to get around it. If the
editor advocates improvements the
mossbacks go after him and sometimes
stop their paper. If he opposes i'm
provements the progressive sort get on
his frame and call him back number.
If he boosts the churches the liberal
element call him crazy, and if he doesn t
the church people say he is going to the
devil. If he publishes local news some
say it is all nonsense, and if he doesn't
he gets it in the neck from those who
look for the short items. If he pub
fishes politics the opposition gets into
his hair and if he doesn't he is charged
with being afraid to stand out for his
opinion. If he condemns mail order
houses there are some people who ask
him to attend to his own business, as
they have right to trade where they
please. If he publishes mail ads the
home merchants go after his gore. No
country paper can come square out and
stand up for it's right without making
enemies and losing money, and in the
run of year or two will incur criticism
from nearly everybody.
And yet; who would not be an editor?

TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS.
A Little Talk on the Matter of Paying
Your Subscription.

Publishers of weekly news
papers throughout the United
States have received notice from
the postofice department that
papers cannot longer be sent to
subscribers who owe on sub
scription longer than one year.
There are a number of subscrib-
ers taking Mining News who are
affected by the new ruling. The
time is short the publishers are
given to collect back accounts.
To a number Of our delinquents
we have sent statements, but the
greater number of the accounts
have already been placed in the
hands of good. reliable collec-
ton agency. We hated to do it,
but business is business, you
know, and besides, Uncle Sam
tells us to hurry. We expect to
hear from people who have no
recollection of ever having sub
scribed for the paper, but we call
the attention of such persons to
a ruling by the u. S. supreme
court, as follows:
Taking a periodical from the
postofiice is prima facie evidence
that the person so taking is a
subscriber, unless the periodical
lis marked sample copy or
marked copy. ~
In this connection it might be
we'll to mention new ruling that
was put into effect by Mining
News recently. The publisher
has found by experience that
it is not best, and far from good
business practice, to permit him
self to be under obligations"
for more than a year to a reader
who takes the paper without
paying for it. Our ruling is that
we drop the name from the list
when the subscription expires,
unless we know positively that
the subscriber wants the paper
to continue coming, and will pay
for it. Again we remind you
this is business, and no reflection
on the credit of the subscriber.

From the pulpit and the press, and
on every hand is heard so much about
''the commercial age" "greed for
money!" etc., that members of the gen
GRAFTON now growing to manhood and
womanhood are apt to get the idea that
love for the almighty dollar is craze
distinctly of this age. The trained
mind that has delved in history knows,
however, that the dollar has been the
standard by which the ability and
power of the individual has been and
is now being measured Graft has had
a great deal to do in promoting the idea
the size of mans pocketbock is the
true measure of his worth. Graft is on
the increase. There is no doubt about
that. More avenues for human activity
are opened as the world grows older,
and the lessening of profits in a given
line of industry cause men to resort to
unfair and undetermined means for gain.
Proof of the ancient love of money
is furnished from an idyl of Theocritus
written as long ago as 265'B. c:
TFor now no longer, as Of old, are
men eager to win the renown of noble
deeds, nay, they are the slaves of gain!
Each man clasps his hands below the
pursefold of his gown, and looks about
to spy whence he may get his money:
the very rust is too precious to be rub
bed off for gift.
"Oh, foolish men, in the store of gold
uncounted, what gain have we? Not in
this do the wise find the true enjoyment
of wealth, but in that they can indulge
their own desires, and something be-
stow on one of the MINISTRIES, and do
good deeds to many of their kin, and
too many another man; and always
give altar-rites to the Gods, nor ever
play the churHsh host, but kindly en-
treat the guest at table, and speed him
when he would be gone. And this,
above all, to honor the holy interpre-
tiers of the Muses., that So thou mayest
have goodly fame, even when hidden
in Hades, nor ever moan without re-
nown by the chill water of Achercn,
like one whose palms the spade has
hardened, some 'landless man bewailing
the poverty that is all his heritage"

SUBSCRIPTION RATES;
Discomfort.

Two boats rocked on the river,
In the shadow of leaf and tree;
One was in love with the harbor,
One was in love with the sea.
The one that loved the harbor
The winds of fate out-bore,
But the other was held, close-cling-
ing,
Forever against the shore.
The one at rest on the river,
In the shadow of leaf and tree,
With wistful eyes turned ever
To the one far out at sea.
The one that rode the pillows,
Though sailing fair and fleet,
Looks back to the peaceful river,
To the harbor safe and sweet.
One frets against the quiet
Of the moss-grown, shaded shore,
One signs that it may enter
The harbor nevermore.
One wearies of the dangers
Of the tempest's rage and wall;
One dreams, amid the lilies
Of the far off, storm-tossed sail.
Of all that life can teach us,
There is naught so true as this:
The winds of fate blow ever,
But ever blow amiss.

AMERICANS WIN
 HONORS IN GERMANY

Frankfort -on-the- Main, July 20.-Today was practically .Amerio I Day" at the Turner's tournament here. The visitors from the United States were out in full force while many thousands of the gen eral public applauded enthusiastically the massed dumb bell exercises under the direction of George Brosius of Milwau- kee.
 In the meantime the military band played American tunes. The exercises were so well executed that the public insisted on their being repeated.
 In other portions of the grounds base ball and football games were played and horizontal and parallel bar exercises and swinging of Indian clubs were carried out
 Several athletic competitions were held late this evening, comprising the high and broad jumps. weight throwing, the three jumps. ball throwing, 100 metre dash and free exercises. The names of the win ners have not as yet been officially an nounced and must first be confirmed.
 The Brooklyn, Philadelphia and St. Louis contingents, it is understood, each have three wins to their credit and Ro- chester one. Bissnger. the New York champion was successful

ATTACK ON TOWN
 IS LED BY PRIEST

Puerto cortez July 15.-tVia New Or leans, July 20)-Details of the capture and abandonment of Gracias. one of the first towns taken in the present insur- rection in Honduras, have reached here. A priest according to these reports, led in the revlt at Graeias, inducing many of his congregation to take arms. His force captured the plaza and public of fees and held these places for ten days, expecting similar uprisings throughout Honduras When, however, no such out breaks occurred, and when government troops marched on Gracias, the priest led many of his followers across the oor- der into Salvador. leaving Gracias b be recaptured without a fight. Evidence continues to pile up that uprisings had been planned to occur simultaneously in all parts of the country. At present there is little military activity worthy the name of a revolution in Honduras, but business continues to be badly paralyzed as though there really were war.

GRAND PRIX RAGE
 MAY BE ABOLISHED

Paris, July 20.-At a meeting today of the Automobile Club of France proposition was informally discussed to abandon the Grand Prix, advo- eated by Marquis De Dion, president of the club. and his friends on the ground that contest for specially con structed racing machines, with the al- most invariable attendant accidents and loss of life, was not justified from the standpoint of either sport or as test of the merits of the machines manu- factured for the purpose. Action was postponed until the September meet ing The preponderance of sentiment at the meeting seemed strongly opposed to the abandonment of the blue ribbon of the automobile world until the French have an opportunity to retrieve the disastrous defeat of July ', when the event was won by a German car.

German Emperor May
 Race For An1erica's Cup

Kiel, July 20.-The Emperor of Germany at various times in the last IS months has talked over with yaehtsmen the feasibility of challenging for the Americas cup. The Emperor has mentioned the subject to vis- iting American yachtsmen and to mem- bers of his suite and he would regard the winning of the cup, if competition could be arranged, as a great feat of craftsmanship and as likely to stimulate German enthusiasm in the sport and in- directly advance national pride in things related to the sea.
 The Emperor recently commissioned Max Oertz of Hamburg to design large racing schooner to replace the Ameri- can built Meteor, now six years old. Herr Oertz is considered the best yacht de- signer in Germany. Some of his sonder

class boats beat those of the Eastern Yacht club in 1907, and his Germania, which has about the same measurements as the Meteor and which is owned by Lieutenant Krupp Von Bohlen and Hal bach did well during the last races at Kiel The Germania, in the opinion of some critics. is capable of beating the Meteor when her crew has been trained. On two occasions in June the Germania in a race with the Meteor took a good lead at the start and then dropped be- hind, this being due, it was thought, to lack of skill in handling.
 If the Emperor's yacht comes up to expectations next June it is not unlikely that the Emperor will send to the New York Yacht club a challenge for the America's cup.
 This. however. depends on the perform ance of the new boat.
