THE FRIENDS WHO STICK

When your bank rolls large and your
prospects bright
And you've won, We'll say, your first
big fight,
When your skies are blue and your
path is clear
You'll find the good fellows are wait
ing near
To grasp your hand and to pat your
back,
And they'll smile at you and they'll
call you Jack"
They'll wine aud dine you and buzz
like flies
Aud they'll aatter you and call you
wise.
But don't imagine if things go
wrong,
And your skies turn gray that they III
come along;
And don't ina gine that they will be
AS quick to share in your misery
AS they were to share in the joys you
knew:
That's something the good fellows
seldom do.
When your moneys gone and you've
lost your grip,
The fiatterer then has scornful lip.
So if you're treading the rosy way
Stick close to your friends of yester-
day;
The old-tlme friends of the old-time
days
Whose love is greater than words of
praise;
Don't turn away from the heart
that's true
For the fawniDg smiles of the one
that's new,
Because, when you're getting fate's
blows and kicks,
The old-time friend is the one who
sticks.

American Mining Congress.

Los Angeles, June 15-What is be-
lieved will prove the most intense
pre-convention campaign of the
American Mining Congress has been
begun in this city, although that
national mining organization does
not meet until September 26. 1t will
remain in session until October l,
making on entire week of convention.
The convention this year is being
exploited by the Sierra Madre club,
an organization of a social character,
composed entirely of large mining
and oil men from all portions of the
United States. A special committee
has been appointed to assume COM
plete charge of the convention details
and extensive Offices have been
opened in the Columbia Trust Build
ing, the top floor of which is occupied
by the Sierra Madre club, and staff
of assistants has been installed.
"Three thousand for 1910"
is the slogan adopted by the club
boosters indicating the high hopes
they hold regarding the probable at
tendance and an energetic campaign
will be prosecuted to effect this re-
suit.
One thing which will make for
greater attendance this year than
eyer before in the history of the
American Mining Congress will be
the addition of the oil men to the
ranks of the membership, none but
metal and coal operators and smelt-
ing men haying previously been
identified with it.
Special excursions are already being
planned by representative delega-
tion of oil men from this city to many
of the most important-oil fields of the
Southwest with a view to enlisting
cooperation of this new branch and to
arrange for the oil mems attendance
at the Congress.
The greatest hopes for record at
tendance, however, lies in the fact
that the American Mining Congress,
after three years of hard struggle
has induced the passage of bill in
Washington providing for a federal
Bureau of Mines, which means govern
mental recognition of mining after
years of virtual neglect of the sub
ject.
BY this victory, in the face of deter
mined opposition on the part of
powerful forces which did not want
to see mining pass beyond the control
of the Geological Survey, the Mining
Congress has proven that it has finally
become a power in national legislation
and it's members generally now realize
that it will only take one more deter
mined effort to secure fullest recog-
milton. This effort will crystalize at
the coming mining convention.

Public Schools in Mining Camps.
(The Mining WORLDLY


Attention has occasionally been
called to the work that some large
mining companies in the Lake Su-
perior region and elsewhere in the
United States have been doing and
are doing for the welfare of their
employees and their families. In line
with this we note that the Vulture
Mines company, which is employing
about 125 men at its camp at Wick
enburg, Arizona, has petitioned the
supervisors of Maricopa county for
permission to open a school in it's
camp. In this country the need of
common school education is felt by
practically all classes. In western
mining camps there are few Hitter
ate men. The Mexicans, so largely
employed in the mines of the south
west, can usually at least read and
write Spanish and many of them
have good working knowledge of
English and appreciate the value of
at least an elementary education.
In every large mining camp there
are certain to be found men of
education who, as well as Mexicans
and others, have their families with
them and cannot see their children
grow up without good school educa-
tion.
There is no doubt that the Vulture
company will profit by the establish.
ment of a school, as, knowing that
their children will receive proper in
structiou, men with families, and
these are the most dependable, will
be ready to settle down in the camp,
aud give good service in order to hold
their positions. Preference in any
camp would naturally be given to the
men who could be most depended on
and the establishment of schools is
one of the best steps to make camp
life attractive to that class of men.

Was Mr.. Roosevelt Unjust?
(National Daily.)

(National Daily.)
Mr.. Roosevelt, in London the other
day, while possibly not overstepping
the limitations beyond which a guest
may not safely venture, seems to
have gone dangerously close to the
line. The former president does not
approve of Britain's manner of gov
erning Egypt. He has been in Egypt
recently, as everybody remembers,
and thus assumes the ability to judge
conditions as he saw them. He says
some nation must govern Egypt.
The hope is expressed that English
men will find the duty is theirs, but
the warning is sounded, and it has a
peculiarly familiar ring, that no
nation can be ruled by sentiment.
Sentimentality," Mr.. Roosevelt
said, sis the most broken reed upon
which righteousness can lean"
Eugland's critic knows the Egypt
of today, and the conditions that ex-
ist But does he remember the
Egypt of yesterday? Perhaps the
progressive Britons who have gone
into that benighted country to bring
it to higher and progressive stand
ard measured by modern civilization
have not been blind to the fact that
such peoples as they found cannot be
ruled by sentiment alone. Does the
record of Egypt since British Occu-
patton in 1882 indicate the sacrifice
of principle to sentiment? A few
figures, dull enough in themselves,
but supremely important as disclos-
ing the actual, existing facts, answer
the question with apparent finality.
In 1882 Egypt was a bankrupt
nation, with a public debt of more
than $500, 10000 It's income was in
sufficient to pay the interest on this
debt and carry on the government.
In-lS82 the public revenue amounted
to S45, 900, 900, in 1907, to SS1, 800, 900,
or more than $4,000, 900 in excess of
expenditures. In January, 1908, the
general reserve fund amounted to
S45, ,00O,O 900, and the public debt was
reduced by 81, 100000. Despite the
fact that millions have been saved
and enormous public works COM
pleted, the tax rate has been greatly
reduced. The peasants, formerly
Frustrated by taxes and laboring un-
der an almost hopeless burden of debt
are now contented and prosperous.
All this has been achieved by strict
and businesslike, and not sentimen-
tai, financial control.
But this record of progress has
been made against tremendous odds.
Great difficulty was encountered by
the English ia making proposed
changes in the system of taxation.
The people, SO long accustomed to
the betrayal of their interests, look
ed upon the plans as only another
scheme to increase their burdens.
But they came to realize that a new
and better era had been opened to
them. They began to work with re-
newed energy, and now, secure in
the fruits of their own labor, they
are improving their own conditions
and building up the country.
This is a part of what England has
accomplished in Egypt in less than a
generation. Should she be condemn
ed because she has not done more, or
commended because she has done so
much?
