PARTY THOROUGHLY CARRYING OUT ANNOUNCED
INSPECTING AND GETTING ACQUAINTED WITH
THE DIsTRICr-GIRoUx BETTER
SEE IT-IARGE CONTINUOUS

Announcement made Immediately
upon their arrival in the district by
the Giroux-Cole party of intention to
become fully acquainted with the dis
trict and its people before finishing
their visit, is being made good by the
gentlemen with full measure, which
is the way they have reputation of
pursuing in all things.
Following a day spent at the Gil
roux property, the visitors last even
ing went to Ely from East Ely and
at the Northern hotel parlors made 1t
a point to meet informally with the
people of the town. Several hundred
passed through the parlors, shaking
hands with Mr.. Cole and receiving
introduction to Mr.. Mills, the new
general manager of Giroux, and other
members of the party. with exception
of Mr.. Giroux. who was detained at
the Steptoe by an important business
engagement.
The reception was most cordial
one. no less enjoyed by those who
had the pleasure of meeting with the
party than by the members OF the lat
ter. On leaving the hotel parlors,
the party went to the University
club, where a short time was spent
before returning to East Ely. The
club rooms we're crowded and the
cordiality which obtained at the ho-
tel was enthusiastically repeated.
The party viii remain here until
Wednesday or Thursday. Sunday
was spent at McGill, where a visit
was made to the reduction works, for
the excellence of construction and
operation of which. particularly in
view of the short time of life of the
plants, the visitors had much to say
In praise. Yesterday was spent at
the Giroux and return will be made
today to the mine.
Further than the statement given
out by Mr.. Giroux last Saturday night
there has been no more informa-
tion extended. 1t is known. however,
that the more seen of the Giroux the
more the visitors think of it, while
the determination of the management
is fixed to get at the work which
is to be done at the earliest possible
time and crowd 1t ahead vigorously
and continuously. There is every
reason to expect that within very
short time there will be much work
going on at the property and that
this will increase with all the splen-
did rapidity that has marked the con-
duet of enterprises such as North
Butte, Calumet q Arizona and
Greene Cananea. with which the
Giroux management has been asso-
ciated with result of great mines and
dividend payers in record breaking

The great crowd which had as

cruise of 5000 miles, the fleet cast

EXPOSuRES-URG SUPPORT
OF HOUSE CLEANINGS.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 22.-Pres-
ident-eleet Taft was the central fig
ure In the celebration today by the
University of Pennsylvania. of Wash
ington's birthday. The exercises
took place In the old academy of mu-
sic, where five thousand persons were
crowded. Taft was cordially receiy-
ed.
He chose for the subject of his
address the Present Relations of the
Learned Professions to Political
Government. He discussed at con-
siderable length the influence which
the learned professions. in this day.
have upon national and municipal
government. He outlined luminous
ly the part each of the important
professions plays In government
by the people and compared their
influence, one with another. In brief
part. he said:
1T Is the duty of every citizen to
give as much attention to the public
veal. and To take as much interest
as he can in political matters.
Americans generally have recognized
these duties. and we find active In
political life. men representing all
professions. all branches of business
and all trades. | propose this morn
ing TO invite your attention to the
present relation of each OF the learn
e4 professions to politics and govern
ment.
''The first profession Is that of the
ministry. Time was when the min
lister of the community was the high
est authority as to what the law
should be and how II should be
enforced: but the spread of educa-
lion and independent thinking. the
wide diffusion of knowledge by the
press. the disappearance of the sim
pie village life, have contributed
radically to change the position and
influence of the ministry in the COM
mnnity.
During the administration of Mr..
Roosevelt. and under the influence
of certain revelations of business Inn
morality. the conscience OF the whole
country was shocked and then neryed
10 the point of demanding that a
better order of affairs be introduced.
This movement, the ministers of the
various churches recognized the call
upon them TO assist. and they have
been heard in accents much more
effective than ever before in half
century. The greatest agency today
in keeping advised of the conditions
among Oriental races is the establish
ment of the foreign missions. The
leaders of these missionary branches
of the churches are becoming some
of our most learned statesmen in
respect of our proper Oriental poll
cies."

THE new YORK
GAMBLERS

That the heroic, life-risking effort
of a sick man, in casting his leigsla-
tive vote, killed the hopes of the race
track gamblers of New York State
last June, was flashed by telegraph
throuhgout the country the day the
victory was won. Whether his effort
would cost him his life was not
known ut the time. He recovered ;but
he has never before told his own
story of that day and the stirring
events that led up TO il. The stoIy is
now published, for the first time,
exclusively in The Sunday School
Times of February 20, for which
journal the heroic legislator, the
Hon. Otto G.. Foelker, has written
il. 1t is "A story of costly personal
heroism that stirs the blood, and that
gives the lie TO the cheap talk still
heard in some sections that men
don't do things these days for mere
righteousness sake. The facts i'm the
case also puncture the notion that
men who do things from stern stand
ard of duty never get their rewards
in this world. Although, next To
Governor Hugehs, Mr.. Foelker SEEM
ed TO be the worst hated man i'm New
York State after the victory, never

from his district in the United States

plurality over his opponent for that
