What Mining Needs.

The effort of Denver to create
rev interest in prospecting by rails
ing a grub-stake fund is conf mend
able but not far-reaching, 1t will
aid handful of irresponsibles and
financial wrecks to get into the
hills, whether they prospect or not
The genuine prospector prefers to &c
it on his own hook. If he then finds
anything he won't be handicapped
by a control in the hands of some
other party, as in this proposition.
What the mining industry needs
is not prospectors but cheap ore
treatments. The man who solves
the problem of extracting two-dollar
values from rock at a profit will
make the industry greater than all
other industries combined, for then
all the idle men in this country
row or for a century to come, could
find employment at mining.
The. lucky prospector who chances
upon a rich lode makes a few mil
lionaires perhaps, while others who
are led to seek because of the rich
find. lose twice as many millions as
the more fortunate took out.
This is conceded to be the his
tory of nearly if not every mining
district in the world. and all because
the low grade ores of the camps
could not be treated at a profit.
Every real mining district in
Colorado has untold, incompatible
quantities of ores which carry values
all the way from two or three dol
lars, up to twelve or fifteen dollars,
which, by reason of inaccessibility
or refractory character, could not
be shipped to shelters or treated at
home
The government, and every min
ing state, should offer a premium
to inventors for any practical solu-
ton of treatment at the mines of
low grade ores which should prove
a success, and every mining camp
should have a fund of its own to
support such a school of invention.
Once remove the handicap OF
hopelessness from prospecting and
there will be plnety of men to pros
pect, for they will then feel that it
isn't a lifetime job; that they will
only need to prospect for a little
while after which they will be min
ing.

Denver Markets.

Denver Union Stock Yards. July
l0-Receipts of cattle here last
week were light and demand much
better than supply. Prices were
about / 5 to csc higher on good, fat
beef cattle and not near enough
here to meet the requirements Of
the trade. Packers had to bring In
fat steers from eastern markets to
c.il their orders. Prices paid here
are higher than at eastern markets
and shippers will do well to note
tLis fact and send their stuff this
way. Good to choice beef steers are
worth $500 to s6.40, with the fair
10 good at $3.50 to $500. Good
~ choice COWS are bringing $500 to
50 so. but few good cows here this
week. Fair cows sold at $4.25 to
$50. Bulls and veal calves found
ready outlet at good strong prices.

remain about the same on this

The demand for hogs was good

are now selling at $3.50 to $6.45.
The trade in sheep was light and

President and Press.

About 5 o'clock each Tuesday

ing and are shown into the cabinet
room, writes George Griswold Hill.
in Leslie's. They occupy the chairs
of the members of the cabinet, they
crowd the ample davenport on the
right and dispose themselves over
the few easy chairs on the left,
while the late corners stand about
the fireplace at the foot of the table
Two fixed rules of long standing,
are all that restrict the newspaper
men. First, no one may, under any
circumstances, directly quote the
president His mental attitude may
be described, tbs reason for this,
that or the other policy may be
given, but never may the direct
quote be used. Secondly, whenever
the president indicates that any por.
ton of the conversation is confiden-
tial, the confidence must be strictly
observed.
What would happen If the con-
fidence were broken?" Well, it
never has been but once, and that
was in the case of a foreign cor
respondent during the last admin
istration, and he was promptly con-
signed to the Ananias Club.

That $40 fee which the political
labor bureau tried to collect under
act of a previous legislature for
examining every dinky shop in the
state as a factory, was removed
as a matter of political policy fail
ure, by the late lamented. While
many shops examined by the place
filters sent out refused to pay
the fee and others did SO under pro-
test, the Independent, so far as
noted, was the one newspaper in
the state that aside from refusing
to pay the fee, took occasion-in
fact several occasions-to roast the
measure along with the legislature
which would inflict it. Few would
have objected to a reasonable fee
of a dollar or two for the inspec-
ton, but the small shop owners and
owners of spraying machines did
not feel like giving up $40 each for
a political slush fund.

While orchard properties have
been a strong attraction because of
occasional fabulous returns. it must
be admitted that they have too
strongly overshadowed other agri-
can be said of the cultivation of
sugar beets, though in a smaller
measure. The strong point about
the sugar beet field is that the
grower knows just what he will
get for his crop beforehand, making
il so absolute that he can borrow
money on it while his beets are
growing, if he SO desires. But it
has also been demonstrated that
there are other field crops perhaps
more easily cultivated and harvest
ed which pay just as well as beets.
and the same thing applies to the
orchard, one year with another. In
this there is no argument against
owning an orchard or growing sugar
beets. Both are of our chief indus
tries and are entitled to all the
praise their proven merits bespeak.
The suggestion-an oft repeated
one-is the ACCESSIBILITY of giving
due proportion of attention to those
crops it has been proven grow well
and market profitably. The gener-
al store would not be general
store if the merchant only supplied
his customers with one or two lines
of merchandise. He must have as
nearly as possible, what his Gus
toners want and provide the kind
they want for each particular sea
son of the year. The most sue
cessful farmer must follow the same
plan. By doing SO he is getting in
money nearly all the year, instead
of once or twice a year as Is the
case If he confines himself to one
or two products.

The Average Man.

However loosely one may use
the expression the average man."
however plausibly another may
argue that no such parsonage exists
the average man has a very distinct
reality, says the Cleaveland Plain
Dealer He exists, not in imagina-
ton, but in the actual world of
physical objects. The impossibility
of Identifying him is no argument
against his being.
The average man is monarch,
the only monarch we have in de-
mocracy. Before him all other men
bow down. His word is law, indis-
Lutable, unacceptable. From his de-
cree there is no appeal and no re-
dress. He courts suggestion but not
interference.
To this real, but unnamed person
politicians must make their appeal
and statesmen look for support. He
combines radicalism with healthfuI
conservatism, is not often carried
away by the passions of the moment
but. If he is. his mental equilibrium
Is quickly restored. He may occa-
sionally be wrong. but never for
long. In the end his Judgment is
correct and infallible.

The Census Bureau has deter
mined that there were 1889, $50
sheep and lambs in the United
States in 1910. These are all of
the kind that live on farms and
ranges and are Independent of the
kind that hang around Wall Street
and other stock exchanges, because
the count was made of the sheep
and lambs with wool on their backs
instead of the kind where the wool
has been pulled over the eyes.
Montana's sheep population in 1910
was 4,97S.963, and that of Wyom-
ing, 4,676,2O6, a considerable in
crease in each case. The figures in
Colorado show practically no change
in the sheep population for the
past ten years, and there are now.
according to the census count, l.

Fully a year ago the New York
Merchants Association and a large
number of similar commercial Or
CARNATIONS throughout the country,
appealed to the Interstate Commerce
Commission for an investigation of
the great express companies of the
country. The Commission has final
ly woke up" and declared few
days ago that it would conduct a
sweeping investigation. Immediate
ly there was put out by the ex-
press companies complete new sets
of tariffs, giving substantial re-
auctions. The case presented by
the commercial organizations has
been carefully prepared. The ex-
press companies evidently realized
that their way of doing business
would have to undergo a radical
change, and it will be interesting
to know just how their own re-
forms will work out in meeting the
objections that are commonly urged
from all parts of the country.

That there are all sorts of wheels
little wheels, big wheels. cog
wheels and plain pulleys--in the hui
man head, is made more plain with
every days record. A Denver wo-
man starved herself to death in
an effort to form new religious
cult which held abstinence from
food necessary to salvation. In
the sweltering heat of the past week
the devotees of the Pentacostal
creed have been rolling in the dust
and crying for the Gift of
Tongues" The poor creatures do
not seem to realize that they each
have gift of one tongue, which in
many instances proves a plenty and
too much for it's owner. What they
seem to need most is gift of
brains.
