Editor Baldwin. OF the Escanaba
Journal, gives over the entire front
page of his newspaper to n recount
ing OF his warfare against the saloon
interests i'm Escanaba. in connection
with his conviction On the charge of
criminally libelling Chase S. Osborn,
Republican candidate for governor.
II is Mr. Baldwin's theory that his
conviction is the eliminating stroke
in the fight that has been made on him
by the liquor interests. Throughout
the article the libel on Mr.. Osborn
and Mr., Baldwln's warfare on the
liquor interests are blended together
as If they had n common identity
when, as a matter of fact, they are
two entirely different things, COM
ments the Mining Journal. There was
no issue of liquor interests in the con-
test between Mr.. Osborn and Messrs.
Musselman and Kelley, in connection
with which the Baldwin libel was is
sued 1t was a straight out and out
| political fight on well-defned ques-
tions of public policy. Mr.. Baldwin's
libel was written and circulated not
to injure the liquor interests, but to
injure Mr.. Osborn on his primary
contest. This libel was received with
general disapproval, as typifying a
low and subversive order of politics.
Many people not at all out of SYM
pathy with Baldwin's anti saloon fight
in Escanaba were among those who
regarded il as in execrable taste and
judgement on Baldwin's part that il
revealed. Mr. Baldwin finds fault be-
cause the trial was not postponed to
allow him to work up his case. 1t is
recalled. however, that there was a
two or three weeks interval between
Mr.. Baldwin's arrest and arraignment
i'm which at least a start could have
been made on a case. Mr.. Baldwin
made no showing that he had made
a bona fide beginning with the task
OF gathering any evidence bearing OF
the cause. One of the lawyers appear
ing for him had taken up the case
but day or two previously. 1t would

wins adroit association of the TIVE
things, his political libel on Mr.. Os

interests have two distinct identities
and must be considered entirely apar
from one another.

NEW SOURCE OF RADIUM.
English Engineer Says There Is Ono
In Portugal.


That the recent discovery of rich ore
deposits in Portugal will make possible
for the first time the manufacture Of
radium in quantities sufficiently large
for commercial use is the assertion of
/ Harry March. a young English civil
1 engineer who has come to this coun-
/ try In the hope OF interesting Ameri-
can scientists and American capital in
the Portuguese mines. He has brought
with him boXfui OF ore, specimens of
WHICH have been examined by miner
alogists here and abroad, who declare
that the mineral contains large quaint
ties Of crystalline uranite, or what is
technically known as autunite, the sub
stance from which radium is ex-
tracted.
Professor James +. Kemp, head OF
the department of geology at Column
bia, and other members Of the staff
have seen some of the specimens.
According to one analyst, Allen f.
Walden OF the chemical department of
oxford university, who subjected the
mineral to the usual scientific tests for
radium. It is estimated that the ore
contains nearly 720 milligrams of ra-
dunn TO the ton, a new record. The |
ore itself he found to be made up Of |
quartz thickly crusted with yellow |
crystals. These crystals when exam
ined proved to contain uranium, cal
cium and phosphoric acid, and there
was no trace of other metallic or acid
impurities.
Up to the time of the discovery OF
the Portuguese deposits the chief ore
from which radium was extracted was
pitchblende, considerable quantities Of
which are found in Bohemia and in
Cornwall. England. The amount of ra-
dunn producing material in this sub
stance. according to Mr.. March. is
about per cent, whereas the ore OBJ
tanned from Portugal has been tested
and found to contain 33 per cent Of
oxide Of uranium. r.. b. Barboni. a
French chemist, after subjecting the
new mineral to careful tests. declared
that by reason Of the ease with which
it could be treated it was in his opin-
ion "at least three times superior as
raw material to pitchblende."

not write his name unless II is abso-
