MIR. ROOSEVELT ON ARBITRA.
TON.


Mr.. Roosevelt is unduly exercised
in regard to the scope Of the sug-
gested arbitration designed to settle
all international disputes.
He says that no nation should sub
nit to arbitration the question Of its
national Independence or any matter
vital to its honor. Insofar as he con-
fines himself to generalizations Of this
kind he will find no one disagreeing
with him; but in the nature Of things
this is aside from the main question.
The fact that a nation II capable oil

THE PROsPECTOR.

What has become of the genus pros
pector in Colorado? Months, years
have gone, and not whisper hardly
about new gold field or = mining
discovery in many part Of the state.
metropolitan and local papers are 81
lent on such matters, that in years
gone by were the main features in
western journalism.
The prospector seems To have dis
appeared; he is not " be found in the
mountains and he fails to appear at
the assay Offices or about the hotels
with mementos of his discovery, with
thrilling tales OF adventure sufficient
to make the city's pulse beat faster.
Never was the state in such need
OF the stimulus of q new mining field.
A new camp would set the whole
state on edge.
In comparison, agriculture is slow
if sure; it takes years to bring re-
suits which would be accomplished in
the same number of months in the
other field.
To assert that there are no more
gold and silver fields to be found in
this great empire would be u silly
proposition. The old saying holds
true, gold is where you find it. Great
areas in this state have never been
prospected-and the prospector has
given up the quest.
The prospector must Pe brought
back to the field. This should be the
immediate and urgent duty of Dem
yer's commercial organizations, rail-
roads and citizens. He must be di-
rected to enter upon his search again;
he must be given direct encourage
ment.
Unquestionably the big field opened
by the Moffat road is the most at
tractive one at present and 1t would
be an excellent idea If the patriotic
heads OF this enterprise, would lead
the way and send out to the noun
tains around Gore canon and other
points body of prospectors, not "ex-
perts," but the old school prospectors
who have no preconceived notions to
unlearn regarding geological forma-
tions and what not. The road. backed
by organizations which have interest
in state development, should grub
stake the prospectors with the guar
antee that what the latter found was
theirs to have and to hold. The rail
Aal ,,I ha rcial
organizations could afford to go fur
ther and back these men in developing
properties which gave sign of turning
into mines. This is q business propo-
sition. One camp would return the
outlay to all concerned MANIFOLD.
Sentimentalism is behind the rea-
son for the prospector's disappear
ance. There is the same demand for
mines and for ore as ever, but he
cannot see things that way.
Capitalization and concentration in
economics and in government have
deprived this state of its original
founder and pioneer. The prospector
feels that there is not the same en-
couragement to go dig as there used
to be when rival concerns were out
searching for his business. But
good mine today is just as valuable
as ever, if only he could be made
to see the matter in the proper light.
Again, the forest ranger is "snoop-
ing around" and the prospector feels
that he is being shadowed and that
any day he may be deprived Of his
rights by some decree from Uncle
Sam, his former protector. This may
be imagination but imagination is
large part of the genuine prospector's
make-up-Denver Republican.
