AMERICAN MINING CONGRESS
Resolutions Adopted At q Meeting
Held January oath.

Whereas; The Honorable Secre-
tary of the Interior has recon-
mended in his last report, and
there are now bills pending in Con-
gress looking to complete revi-
sion of the laws relating to coal
lands and coal mining which have
already indicated an increase in
the purchase price of $500, 900
acres of coal lands 20 per cent. or
$100.000,000, and upon the same
basis of classification will ultimate
ly increase the price upon 1880,
600 acres about 20 per cent, of
which must eventually he paid
by the consumers, and it is further
proposed to sell the land and the
coal Hereunder separately.
Therefore it is resolved that we,
the members of the Spokane Branch
of the American Mining Congress
deem that the proposed legislation
is unfair to the masses OF the
western people and places an un-
Just burden on the present and un-
born generations of one part of the
country, not exacted elsewhere
and must therefore, be interpreted
as class legislation.
Be futher resolved that the price
of coal land should remain as now
and that the state should be re-
quired to pass legislation to pre-
vent monopoly, and basis for
equitable taxation.
Be it further resolved that we, tn,
members ofthis organization instruc
the Secretary and requestthe Presi'
dent to forward copies ofthese reso
lutions to the acknowledgements
of the American Mining Congress
to officials, national and state, or
carnations, newspaper and in
dividuals who may be interested il
this subject.

Difficulties That Hssst the Work Of
tho Ssivers.
What 1t means to salve a wreck n
something that few outside Of prac-
teal seamen can properly appreciate
The wreck Is a ponderous, unwieldy
mountain of steel and oak, weighing
between 5000 and 1900 tons, often
dangerous for any vessel to approach,
and this must be lifted bodily and
doated from the decks of pitching, IN
stable scows and barges. The wreck
may be submerged beneath fifteen or
thirty feet Of water and 80 stove in
that divers must go down and effect
temporary repairs before it can BE-
raised. 1t may be a wreck SO shat
tered that 1t Is not worth raising, SO
that the wreckers work consists mere
ly In blowing up the hulk and re-
moving It as a menace to navigation.
Or the vessel may be fairly intact, but
sunk too deep to make attempt at
raising advisable, the wrecker's work
consisting In saving valuable cargo.
Often the wreck is one not submerged

ocean swell, pounding. pounding and
pounding until the very ocean bottom

its nose shoreward in fog, finding q

halt until 1t Is stuck fast all but high

storm that comes screeching up the
coast to pile breakers against her and

DEFINES PROFANITY.
Senator Carter Says Habit Is Result
of Vacuity or Bravado.

Sheer mental vacuity or unseemly
bravado" was Senator Carriers descrip-
ton of profanity at lecture delivered
last evening before the Holy Name So
ciety of ST. Paul's parish
When profane word carves itself on
mans lips he said, tit is we'll for
him to ask himself if the applause Of the
atheist is a profitable return for the Of
tense he has given the Deity. That is all
he reaps from his reckless mouth. If his
mind is vacant, there is. perhaps. some
slight extenuation for him; but If he be-
comes foul-mouthed through sheer bra
vado, then he is not worthy of our con-
tempt. We merely pity him.
