The Earth and the Moon.


Huck Finn was at least as right on
the subject Of cosmogony as our mod

Mark Twain's hero lay at night on
the raft with Jim. and. as the two
looked aloft at the sky speckled with
stars. Jim thought they were made,
and Huck allowed they happened.
But Huck did not object to Jim's
suggestion that the moon could have
laid them. because he had seen a frog

George Darwin. In his recent address

theory that the moon moves not only
the tides Of the ocean. but makes the
earth's crust rise and fall eight inches

But on the general subject of the
tides Sir George was less cautious.
Their movement creates friction,
which may we'll cause the creaking
fluctuations of the solid integument
OF the globe. Moreover. It makes the
earth spin slower, and by reaction
drives the moon further from us.
That process must have been going

ESTABLISH STANDARD SYSTEM.
Committee Makes Suggestions FOI
Changes i'm Metal Exchange.

NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-Following
the recommendations of the White
committee to Governor Hughes, the
reform committee of the New York
Metal exchange, it was learned to-
day, proposes in the report which it
has submitted to the board of man
ayers on quotations should be estab-
lished by actual transactions, as on
other exchanges of the highest order,
and therefore urges discontinuance
of the present daily quotations made
by the committee of five of the metal
exchange, which were criticised in
the report of the special committee
appointed by Governor Hughes.
The report of the reform COM
mittee further advocates the estab-
lishment in this city of a standard
copper system under which all the
present brands Of copper-electrolytic
lake, and casting-be included under
the n term of STANDARD copper"

this standard to make New York in

the surface" said Mr.. Givens. This
was before we knew that every silver
in the earth that contained mineral
was not a mine, in the days before
ripened experience taught us that
there was only one way to mine,
that is, to actually exhaust ore and
sell it.
The Pioneer Mining and Leasing
company and the Rickard-Garberg
Leasing company are actually mining
and selling their ore. They are ac-
tually mining the right way and not
the wrong way.
Last week l made a trip over to
Tonopah in the interest of the min
ing congress. l used to think that
Tonopah and Godfield We're twin
towns and that you could walk from
one to the other; but you have got to
ride around in an automobile, or you
won't know anything more about
your neighbor than you would about
the town of Afghanistan.
II was surprised to find how good
Tonopah looked, but all the mining
camps are surprises TO the visitors.
Tonopah has gotten down to the
right kind of mining-commercfal
mining-the kind of mining that has
resulted in the production of $780,
100000 in the United States, and
there is a handsome profit in the
production. 1t is this kin of mining

Il believe from the statements I
hear about Glendale that it is a
wonderful mineral showing, that 1t
will make good, and we hope 1t Will
do so for the good of the state; but

DAYS. The new commercial era in
mining has come, and you have got
to get down to commercial mining,
or mining that creates wealth. me
mineral mining profits in the future
are going to be won by labor and the
common business sense. The kind
that is taught by the American min
ing congress-; the kind of mining
that will be taught when you get a
department of mining from the gen.
eral government. This is n thing
that the mining congress is working
for and is going to have.
do you know that the greatest
commercial miners of the United
States, such as will be at our con-
gress here in. September, viii refuse
an interview to a man seeking to in
terest him in a prospect through the
display of jewel ore-yet will de-
vote days to a mining proposition
represented by a mill or smelter
treatment of ore running less than
$40 a ton. There is a good chance
that the latter may be a commercial
proposition and pay dividends.
1T is a fact that there have been
only seven mines in this country of
the picture ore character that have
sustained records of production. The
risk of the average is too great for
the practical commercial mining man
to take.
Commercial mining is the mining
of the future. A great many of us
know a great deal about specula-
tive mining of the past. "-Goldfield
