The first discoveries we're confirmed
and the volume of gold flowing east
grew larger This gave the nation a
credit 1t had never had before, and
railroads on borrowed capital 4rami-
fed the great Middle West. Then.
ten years later, the Comstock was
discovered, and the progress of the
nation received an impetus that the
great Civil War could not check.
Then the corn that had been burned
for fuel became valuable enough to
ship abroad. The increased volume
of money was what gave the increas-
ed value to the lands productions.
The men of the east will say they
have made their fortunes independent
of mining and within their narrow
horizons they believe they are telling
the truth, but we in the west know
better. The moving spring Of all has
been the steadily swelling flood of
treasure that has been flowing from
western mines now for sixty years.
Even now, with all that start, stop
this flow for three years and such a
depression would come upon the east
as it has not experienced since it de-
monetized silver sixteen years ago.
and by the act spread ruin over all
the land. Mining is the most legiti-
mate Of all this old worlds occupa-
tions.

WHAT MINING MEANS

The Saturday Evening Post is pub
fishing series of articles on Lead
Vile, from the pen of Will Irwin. The
first has appeared, the others are
promised later. This first article is
we'll written, but to an old-timer
there is not much thrill to 1t, for all
its incidents are but reproductions
Of what they themselves lived
through twenty years before Lead
Vile was heard Of. Leadville was a
healthy camp, but as the late inimit-
able and immortal r. M. Daggett
would have said: 1T was only one
of the Comstocks pups But Lead
Vile was the maker of Denver. DEN
yer had been an ambitious village
built out of place, where no city
ought to have been built--for seven
teen years, when Leadville gave 1t a
new start In life and made it great.
In the same way San Francisco,
though on the finest bay in the world
and backed by glorified state, was
sleepy village until the Comstock
gave it a second birth and created
the city that went down under the
earthquake and fire.
And the history of these two great
mining districts and cities should be
needed by Salt Lake.
Salt Lake would have been a sleepy
village yet except for the mines of
Utah. All the rest Of her possessions
are but secondary, the fountainhead
has been the mines, They are what
have made the labor, the beef, the
vegetables, the fruit, the grain of
Utah valuable, and the farmer and
truck gardener and stock man who
says: Il had little to begin with, but
by my industry have done pretty
well in Utah. tells one truth and
conceals a much greater truth. He
has done this because the mines have
given him a market and supplied at
the same time the money to run the
market.
And this truth a little expanded
tells the story of the nation. The col
onists had worked for a hundred and
fifty years before the evolutionary
war and were very poor. 1t took Ben
jamin Franklin two and half years
to raise 100000 in France to carry
on the war. When it was finally adj
vanced.. 1t was done more to cripple
England than to help the colonies.
For sixty-five years after the war
closed, the sterling men of the new
nation toiled on, telling forests,
planting new fields, building some
small manufactures and few miles
of railroad, but they were still poor.
Ohio and Michigan were still far west
states to the men of New England
and eastern New York and Pennsyl-
vania; Kentucky and Tennessee were
dreary distances from Virginia and
the Carolinas
But gold was found in California
and thrill went through the nation.

AT THE NORTH POLE

DR.. Frederick A. Cook and Robert
E. Peary, both Americans, announce
that they have reached the north pole.
Cook claims to have reached 1t first
by year, and Peary scouts the idea
Of Cook having reached 1t at all. Cook
is very generous and says he is glad
Peary reached 1t, and says Peary's
men appropriated lot of his supplies
that he left to use on his return, and
he had to beg to get any Of them when
he returned in starving condition.
However this may be, both men are
mortal, both have suffered years Of
privation and nerve-wrecking weather
in the far north, and have had to Int
tie with conditions similar to those
that caused Henry Hudson to be set
adrift to die after discovering Hudson
river and Hudson bay. Cook end
Peary lived through the great trials,
and now 1t is too bad to have any bit
lterness or anything unpleasant come
up to mar the great achievements
which each of them accomplished
working on his own plans. America
is proud Of them both, and should be
generous with both.

THOUSANDS FIGHT WITH FIRE
ETENn
In Dozen Counties Of California Con-
ditiOns Have Become Seri
Gus and Menace Many

San Francisco, Sept. IA Several
thousand men are engaged in dozen
counties of California in fighting
numerous forest fires that threaten
ranch and resort buildings, as we'll as
many square miles Of valuable tim
Der lands. AS a result of these con-
fagrations, unusual heat prevails
along the coast. Great damage al
ready has been done to ranch houses,
and several groups of summer hotels
and tent cottages have been Destroy
ed.
Most Serious Fires
The most serious fires reported to-
day are in Northern Sonoma, Western
Napa, Mendocine, Santa Cruz, Lake
and Los Angeles counties. Although
desperate efforts were made yester-
day and today to prevent further
spreading of flames, the fire-fighters
have succeeded but indifferently.
In Napa county, where Walters
Springs was destroyed and the cot
tages and tent houses at Burkes Sana-
forum were badly damaged, the fire
burned itself out today, but in the
hills near Preston the flames are
spreading in several new directions.
In the vicinity of Ukiah the whole
country is ablaze and hundreds of cit
liens are working under the direction
Of experienced foresters to stop the
progress of the flames. They are
back firing to save the city of more
destruction.
CalistOga is Saved
In the vicinity of Calistoga, the
confiagration that threatened that
town last night has been controlled.
A hundred men from st. Helena sue
ceeded in saving suburban residences
scattered through the foothills
Near jacksonville a fire has been
burning for two days, spreading in
the direction of Gilroy. Rangers sue
ceeded in saving the big trees in the
state park.
Thousands of acres in the foothills
west Of Donovan valley, Lake county,
have been swept by the flames, but
they are now under control.
Oil Region i'm Danger
Fires that threatened the San Ca
briel watersheds north of Pasadena
called out many rangers and citizens,
and for time the oil region around
Whittier was in danger.
Most of the fires so far reported |
originated at points where campers
had left embers, or from sparks from
engines. The fields and forests are |
especially conclusive at this time Of |
the year, when the long dry season is
drawing to close.-Salt Lake Trib-
une.

OVERLOOKED

Wood D. Parker, of the ST. An
thony Peak Chronicle, is often con-
sidered a good fellow, but for some
reason he never loses a chance to
take crack at the Eastern Idaho
Press club, even when he has to
quote some other disgruntled pub
Usher to do it. But really, Wood,
you are overlooking a very interest
ing and sensational story, one in
which the people would be greatly
interested and one they would enjoy.
Just give them detailed account Of
how you got drunk, capped a fight
and skiddoed for home at the time
the Club met in Twin Falls. The
story would be the hit of your news
paper experience, especially If you
could run a cut of your face as it
looked when the drayman got
through with you.--Soda Springs
Chieftain.

RADICAL REFORMERs

The way in which the Chinese Of
Shansi have grappled with the opium
evil shows them to be men of strong
character. An edict went forth last
year forbidding the sale or the SOW
ing of poppy seeds, and Paul l.. Cor
bin, an American Board Missionary at
Tai-ku writes: 1T is hard to believe
but It is true nevertheless that old
Shansi in single season absolutely
and completely stopped the cultiva-
ton of the opiuf poppy" The words of
ex-president Tucker of Dartmouth
may yet be fulfilled. For ought we
know" he says, before the century
Is out America may need China in
Christian way as much as today China
needs America" Perhaps these Shan
81 men can give us points on how to
enforce our laws against the sale OF
alcoholic drinks and other evils.

Education Uplift.

Throughout the entire northwest
during all this past winter. more so
than ever before. there have been held
all forms of gatherings o. men and
women, who have been considering
various educational, social and
religious questions. High above all
lesser phases of social conditions,
has stood the belief in education and
an abiding faith that the public
school must be relied upon to offer
more than ever it's share of strength
to lift upward the human race. The
one great theme in these gatherings
has been mans recognition of and
dependence upon educational ideals.
The public school is now recognized
more than ever, as the great agency
for reaching the whole mass and
through this great movement, the
solidarity of mankind is assured.
The university is fast changing its
base. The enrolled student is not
now the only one in whom the uni
versity force is interested; that in
terest extends to all the citizens of
the state. University influence for
everyone is now the thouhgt of the
state. The professors are planning
how best to reach all classes and how
best to stimulate and arouse interest
in education-not alone in books, but
in human development, although
books are and always will be, the
working tools of educated man books
will always be the repositories of the
best thought. There is now great
awakening going on in all states in
the lettering of schools; the better
training of teachers and the realiza
tion on the part of the people that
education is force that advances the
race towards perfection to such de-
gree that one marvels at it's very
rapid advancement. No former age
ever witnessed such great expenditure
of time, money, and labor; but in
reality, the movement has but begun.
Our crude wastes of energy, money
and i'll trained workmanship will
gradually disappear. The public
school system of the future and the
public school teachers of the last half
of the century will rid themselves of
