LITTLE THINGS OF LIFE.

Why is it that we so easily forget
that the little things in life are what
make it easy or hard? A few pleas
ant words, warm handclasp, a
cordial letter, are simple things, but
they are mighty in their Influence
on the lives of those about us, ad-
4;ng ray of hope to many disconsu-
late hearts, giving a bit of courage
to disappointed, weary ones, and
helping to make our own lives sweet
er at thesametime. Few people real
i've how much the little attentions OF
everyday life mean to their as
sociates in the home, the church, the
business place, 1t is generally a
lack of consideration which makes
one forget the tiny pleasantries; but
lack of consideration is really Onne
form of selfishness, and Belfishness
is not considered desirable quality
Remember that the little things OF
life, either good or bad, court for
more than those we love than We ev'
er know, and we should be watchful
Ier actions and our words.

IN THE HOME.

We are not angels only men and
women, and we share the imperfec-
ton OF manhood. We are not per-
feet apples, We are speckled apples
ali Of us. We do not care how deep
ard sweet and tender and accordant
love may render the home life, 1t
cannot but happen that in the close
contact in the everyday openness and
disclosures of the home, our bad
points will come out. No family Is
made up of perfectly straight sticks,
hot crooked ones. And when they
are piled together in the closeness
of home life the crookedness will ap
pear. The man and woman married
the most utterly, married along the
whole line of their natures, must
ret find some point where there Is
not complete contact. There is dis
similarity of education. Before mus
ic'ans can pour fourth perfect mar
mony, they must bring their inshu
ments into perfect tune Before
two hearts can perfectly strike To

DR.. w. L. Berry, who returned
Tuesday from the Pactolus district,
stated yesterday that the leasers on
the Pactolus group of claims were
preparing to make a shipment OF
high grade to the shelters. Dr..
Berry brought back samples of ore
taken from this group and all OF
them are literally covered with the
precious metal. These samples were
selected by the doctor and will run
from $500 to $1,000 ton, the values
being chiefly in gold with small
percentage of horn silver. On this
group four leasers are working. A
shaft is down 200 feet and in it a

the surface and rich paintings were
taken from 1t.
During his stay in that district DR..
Berry had the annual assessment
work done on several claims he owns
which adjoins the Pactolus group
and from the trend of the surface
veins it is very evident that they run
directly through his property.

GOOD REPORTS
CONE IN FROM
GOLD REEF

Reports of new strikes continue to
come in from the Gold Reef district,
the latest reported being on the
Lone Star claim, which is being
worked by ]. P. Carroll. While do
ing location work he struck three
foot seam of quartz at depth of
four feet, the rock showing free gold.
No assays have been made as yet,
but the rock has the values all right,
and the finder will at once begin
work to ascertain the size and extent
of the ledge The claim is a fraction
adjoining the claim upon which some
Goldfield interests have a lease and
upon which work has already COM
menced. The leasers are preparing
to install power hoist on their
property.
The shaft on the Toggery lease,
worked by the Grimes brothers, is
| now down 12S feet, and still in the
rich quartz which they have been fol
lowing for some time. The work be-
ing done now is mainly exploration
in nature, but by the latter part Of
the month the operators of the Tog
gerry will begin Stopping and will ther
make arrangements with some of thu
reduction works to handle their ore

Placer mining will play an import |
ant part in the future gold produc-
ton of the Chafey district. There are
several companies and individuals
prospecting the auriferous gravel de-
posts of the several gulches leading
from the main gulch at the present
time and there is no doubt but that
six months from this time these will
be strung with sluice boxes from one
extreme to the other The erosion of
centuries has filled the valleys and
barancas with deposits of gold-bear-
ing gravel to the depth of over fifty
feet and as in the case of Barber
canyon, where millions of dollars
were extracted, there is no logical
reason to refute the theory that other
gulches are equally rich.
The old-timers of the district made
several abortive attempts to sink to
bedrock, but were prevented by large
flows of water that made prospecting
practically impossible by crude meth
DDS. At the time of the first mining
activity in this camp the main flow of
water was of much greater volume
than it is at the present day. 1t is
quite apparent therefore that the
early prospectors without capital and
machinery to drain the ground were
compelled to relinquish their search
for bedrock.
Today such conditions do not exist
there being both money and ma
chinery easily obtainable for such
an enterprise and it will be but g
short time until the gulch will BIZ
thoroughly exploited in this direc
ton.
On the upper part of Dun Glel
gulch Messrs. Scott, Mcdonald anC
McCarvill have been running a deel
cut for a distance of 900 feet witt
the intention of striking bedrock a
an easy grade, thus allowing the foy
or water to continue without inter
fering with their progress. This vii
undoubtedly tap the fountain hea
of the water supply in the gulcf
which has sunk in later years cor
siderably below the surface, givin
them access to bedrock without tn
use of pumps and in addition suppl!
ing them with sluice head.
E. Wicklund, who is prospectin
the Aud Lang Syne gulch has foun
plenty of evidence of rich gravel bee
and will sink as fast as possible
bedrock. 1t is well known that ;
the millsite of the Lang Syne be-
rock was encountered at a depth I
fifty-two feet eighteen years ago, b.
nothing was done on account of lac
of pumping facilities. The rim-rot
has been encountered in the Chafe
Sims we'll at a depth of forty-fi'
feet. In different excavations MAJ

lately plenty of good paintings have
been obtained at shallow depth
clearly demonstrating the presence
of auriferous gravel. The gravel con-
tains plenty of quartz float showing
where it originated.
In the event of rich placer strike
this canyon will be crowded with
people and Chafey will become the
foremost mining camp in existence

A STRONG ENDORSEMENT.

In striking contrast with the atti-
tude of some capitalistlc papers tow
ards Clifford Pinchot is the stand TAX
en- by the Wall street Journal. That
noted financial review has just COM
mented as follows upon the Ballinger-
Pinchot controversy:
Whatever the merits may be OF
the alleged differences between Sec
rotary of the Interior Ballinger and
United States Forester Clifford Pin
chot as to the administration of the
public lands in the northwest, it is
certain that the policy which Theo-
dore Roosevelt carried out with much
success was inaugurated by Clifford
Pinchot to the discomfort of public
land swindlers all over the west and
with the approval of every honest citi-
zen throughout the country.
"For that reason Mr.. Pinchot's rec
ord as a servant OF the people Of the
United States has the advantage OF
any doubt tha. may arise in the ques-
ton, and the burden of proof is up
on the secretary Of the interior to
demonstrate that the established pol
Icy of the government, as applied to
the locality concerned, is wrong.
There are vast areas Of public lands
whose values the government has not
had time TO determine. OF 774,oo0,-
900 acres in the public domain nearly
20 per cent is still unsurveyed. Many
of the tracts are known to private
interests TO contain enormously 1valu-
able deposits Of minerals. Other ar
cas- will afford splendid opportunity
for irrigation enterprises, as to which
the government has a policy Of its
own and counter to which private
interests occasionally run. Further
than that, grazing and lumber inter-
ests in not a few parts Of the north
west have been deprived of pasturage
and privileges that they formerly en-
joyed with practically no compensa-
ton to the public treasury. Finally,
1t is true, as the chief forester claims,
that the game Of grab is being played
dn desperate earnestness on the part
Of syndicates bent on controlling water
power locations on public lands.
Against these forces Clifford Pin
chot has fought the fight of the peo-
pie for fully 10 years. After such
service 1t ought to take great guam
tity Of proof to the contrary to change
popular confidence in him as faith
ful and earnest custodian Of the ma
tional forests. Fortunately, President
Taft is a level-headed man, with great
capacity for Weighing all sides of

HARTMAN.

That Edward H. Hartman is in a
critical condition is apparent. 1t is
also apparent that should he die his
death will have a decided effect upon
the stock market. Yesterday Wall
street was thrown into a frenzy siml
ply by a London rumor that Hartman
was dead.
But thankfully the commercial
health of the United States is not de-
pendant so much as in the past upon
the Wall street pulse. The q stock
gamblers have become frenzied fire.
quently while the remainder Of the
country has gone on peacefully about
its business.
It is to be hoped Hartman will not
die. He is a great financial genius
and the strongest factor in the rail-
way world today. But should he die
his railroads will doubtless continue
to run as they have in the past. His
lines are good lines and are paying
dividends. His death should not af-
feet their money making powers.
Should his death cause the breaking
up to an extent Of the Hartman sys-
tenn and so place his roads under the
control of a number Of men instead
OF under one head the result might be
beneficial to the country.

IT MUST BE RIGHTED.

News stories these days tell of ar.
rdngements being made at the Wash.
ington normals and at the Idaho nor
NAL to receive students from this
state. The president of the Lewiston
normal is confident that his insti-
tuition will get its share of the cast
offs" from eastern Oregon. Some To-
cal young people have already left
for the Cheney and Ellensburg nor
NAL schools and many others are fol-
lowing.
These students obligate themselves
to teach for three years in the state
Of Washington after they have gradu-
ated from school. Should ,hey refuse
TO so obligate themselves they would
be required to pay 500 tuition. SO
since good salaries are paid in the
state of Washington anyway they
sign up to teach school in that state.
They should teach in Washington af-
ter having been educated at the ex-
pense of that generous common
wealth.
But where does oregon get off?
What is this state going to do for
teachers if the brightest and most en-
terprising prospective teachers go
abroad for instruction and to teach?
There is already a decided scarcity of
good teachers-of teachers who have
received thorough and competent
training in the work they are follow
ng. As eastern oregon becomes de-
'eloped, and it is now entering upon
Is great era of development and set
lement, the situation is bound to be-
,ome worse.
If eastern Oregon is to be provided |
With a sufficient number of properly
rained teachers there is one thing
hat is necessary-an eastern Ore
on normal school. \ normal school
Il this part of Oregon is needed for
he simple reason that eastern Oregon
tudents will not go to a western Ore

1rs worked against the eastern Ore
