Mr. Aforeton Frewen in an address in
this city on Wednesday evening de-
scribed what he called the menace OF
gold depreciation. He said that the
creditor was being plundered while the
debtor classes were in receipt Of a huge
unearned increment. This sounds like
strange language from an economist who
did his best in 1896 to induce this Coun-
try to double by legislation the value Of
silver. If the depreciation of gold has
now wrought such mischief, what larger
mischief would have been wrought by
making silver legally exchangeable for
gold at the ratio of 16 TO ],

to the decision rendered by the
supreme court of th. United States
last March. affirming decision of
the United States district court for
the southern district of California,
bo Judge Wellborn, that violation
of the grazing regulations is not
punishable as a crime. This deci-
sion of the supreme court, however,
was by an even division Of the
justices, and therefore did not de-
eide the general question one way or
the other, but merely affirmed the
decision of the lower court III that

has granted rehearing Of the case,

hearing will soon take place. But
the authority of the secretary to
prevent grazing except in accordance
with his regulations does not, it is
pointed out, depend upon affirmation
of the power of the Government to
punish violationof the regulations as
as crime. This is made clear by
the action IN two of the New Mexico
cases; while the third case illustrates
the fact that the affirmation of
Judge Wellborn's decision by the
Supreme court has no binding force
in the cases other than the particul-
ar one then before the court.

100000 WORTH
OF LEAD AND SILVER

Spokane, Wash, Dec. 81
Eighty million dollars worth OF
lead and silver has been taken from
Wardner hill in the Occur dAlene
district of northern Idaho, 128
miles east Of here, since the begin
ming of systematic development
work, according to Stanley a.
Eaton. manager Of the Bunker Hill
and Sullivan mine, who made the
statement in Spokane today. The
gross output of the district, from
1882 to date, is estimated at more
than $21O, 900, 900 with net profits
between S42, 900, 900, and $500
900. Tne district ranks first III the
United States in the. output of lead,
the Missouri Kansas belt being sec
ond Utah third and Colorado fourth.
"The only discouraging feature
of the mining situation at present
is the depression in the lead mar
ket," Mr.. Eaton said, and this Is
due solely to the uncertainty about
the tariff. Much of the lead being
prod aocd in the United States Is
mined at small profit. This is
especially true of the Missouri
mines. II is ont of the question
for American lead mines to COM
pete with those of Spain, which
produce tonnage equal to the
United States with little or no con-
sumption on occount of the poverty
of the people
I'VE are not afraid of competi-
tion with the Canadian mines.
The conditions under which the
lead properties are operated in the
Dominion are similar to our own
and there is small objection to re-
ciprocity with Canada in lead and
lead products.
"Bnt for the tariff uncertainty
the lead market would be in much
stronger position than that which
obtains for copper, principally be-
cause no large lead producers have
been developed in the United States
for years, while enormous deposits
. of copper ore, the product of which
can be marketed protitably in New
York as low as eight cents pound
t have beeh opened up recently"

A HORSE SHOW
SHOULD Be HELD

Z AS it has been two years since aV
horse show has been held IN this
county, it has been suggested that
show be held in Montpelier on the
date Of the visit Of the agricultural
experts, who are to lecture here
next month. 1t is believed that ar
rlngements could be made to have
Montpelier made the last point at
which these men will visit. This
would give ample time in which to
arrange for horse show, if the
matter was taken up Immediately
and purses announced for the dill
ferent classes of horses to be shown.
The Examiner suggests that the
commercial club take hold of this
matter and see If it would be pos
sible to arrange for horse show at
the time mentioned, which will be
the latter part of January. 1t
would be an opportune time to hold
horse show, as it would enable
the prominent agricultural and
stock men, who are coming here to
talk to the farmers, to see what fine
horses are raised in this valley. w.
! L. Carlyle, of the Idaho agricultu-
raj college, who will be member
of the party, is recognized as one
! of the best judges of horses in the
United States, and if he could be
induced to remain here long enough
he would be a splendid man to ac
$ as Judge.

When they asked for bread he gave

Nevertheless, it doesn't seem quite

doesn't bring results A poet with a
