every workingman in the camp could
be made a home owner, the business
man will instantly realize that his
position would be a thousand per
cent better and the value of his IN
vestments and his realty a thousand
per cent greater. As for the working
man, he knows that in home owning
lies his salvation, his hope for in
dependence and better things in the
world. In all industrial communities
whre home owners are in the ma
jority, the workingman knows that
the best conditions prevail for him.
In urging that advantage be taken OF
opportunity to build homes in this
camp, an opportunity which is put
within the reach of every man here
by the installment plan of the Ely
Securities Co., the News sincerely
believes that it is furthering a home
building campaign which Will &C
complish more for the general well
being of all the people and all the
business men of the district than any
other single thing that has come
about here since the taking over OF
the big properties of the camp by
the great monied interests which have
nut the wheels in motion here and
have brought us to our present state
of prosperity.

A OPINION.

The Interview printed elsewhere
with Col. VIM. A. Parish is one in
which the district and those who
have stood by it can take a great
deal of satisfaction. Also it is a
most valuable expression, one that
will enlist a great deal of new inter-
est in the camp among the thousands
of followers of the noted engineer
who gives it. Besides which it should
extend a great deal of confidence to
many claim holders and operators
with property in a large area of the
district which is yet to be brought
into the possession of producing
mines.
Col. w. A. Parish has for many
years stood in the front rank among
mining engineers. His honesty has
never been questioned while his
opinions have been followed by re-
suits giving to him the reputation
which he hold for very great ability
and acumen in his profession. Ten
years ago he reported upon the Ely
district and gave it as his opinion
that the results which have since
been attained would be brought
about by the same manner of de-
velopment which has been followed.
Had the Colorado interests which he
at that time represented adopted his
suggestions and bought the property.
they would today be operating the
greatest copper mines in the world.
Such record entities the views of
Col. Parish to the very highest con-
sideration and his opinion that the
camp is in its infancy, that it still
has a great area of highly valuable
ground to develop and put to pro-
ducing, is a most valuable one. The
unselfishness with which it is given,
in plain honesty and for the benefit
of the district, is characteristic of
the engineer and tells something of
why the mining camps of the coun-
try, from n end to the other, love
Bill" Parish. They know him as
both honest and generous, qualities
which counts for all, and which
they have found constantly with him
during an acquaintance of more than
fifty years.

FOR COOK TODAY

square miles to the nations terri
tory.
LONDON, Sept. 3.-Dr. Cooks feat
has created tremendous interest
among all classes here, especially
g~eographers.
The London are giving to it the
the premier place and print every
available item concerning DR.. Cooks
explorations. Editorially, however,
the papers in general, while giving
ungrudging honor to DR.. Cook, as
a man of reputation well fitted to
achieve the triumph, are inclined to
skepticism. and think it advisable to
await details from DIR. Cook himself.
ENGLAND is ENVIOUS.
Some disappointment is expressed
! that Great Britain has thus been rob-
bed of the enyied honor, but there
is satisfaction that it goes at least
to a name of Anglo-Saxon blood,
bearing a name already famous in sea
story.
The Chronicle says: "All honor to
the daring man, who having been CIV
en- up for dead, has appeared with the
news of victory"
Captain Robert F. Scott, COM
mander of the British Antartic ev-
petition of 10000, in an interview
said: When | saw DR.. Cook in 1901
he gave me valuable information
which proved of great service to me
on the discovery expedition. He i'm
pressed me as being well fitted for
Polar explorations. From the meagre
news received today, he seems to
have made an average of twelve miles
daily from Cape Columbia to the Pole
which is very good progress"

showed how, under the protective
tariff, millions of dollars had been in
vested in development of mines and
the building of smelling and reduc-
ton plants, and that a reduction in
the tariff would practically annul all
this work and expenditure, and close
down many institutions that had
been built up under the protective
tariff. To Senator Hepburn is prob
ably due the credit of winning the
final round of the battle in favor of
maintaining the Dingley rates"
A principle that is winning in
creasing recognition in the land leg
islation is that of relative worth. The
present coal land law expresses this
principle by giving gold, silver and
copper deposits priority over coal,
and coal preference over agricultural
values. These distinctions neces-
state land classification based on
adequate field examination. Wher-
ever the different values can be sep
arated that separation by appropriate
legislation is at once the easiest and
best solution of the problem, and
the first step in this direction was
taken in March of this year in the
passage of the Mondell act whereby
the homeseeker may secur all for
which he makes entry-all that he
swears he is getting-while the coal
beneath his tillable land is reserved
to the nation for future disposal.
The ideal land classification is that
based on field examination, scientific
and detailed enough to include every
natural resource; the ideal land leg
islation is that which fully recog-
nizes the principle of relative worth;
and the ideal land administration is
that which will assure the reserva-
ton or the disposition of the land
for its highest use.
