MINE ACCIDENTS.

1t would seem that, III this day and age when
so much and effort is exercised in the pre-
yentlOn of mine accidents that reports of deadly
disasters would be few and far between; that
the safeguards with which every man and every
detail of work is surrounded would almost
eliminate danger III mine operation But the
keenest of foresight the greatest of care cannot
fully cover all emergencies, is fully shown by
the terrible casualties recently chronicled in this
western country, and these followed each other
so quickly, so suddenly, that the mining follow
ing has been greatly shocked First on the list
was the fire in GirouX shaft, near Ely Nevada
which caused the death of seven men, At the
Giroux every effort had been made to prevent
mine accidents; and yet the real cause of the dis
aster may never become known. At Butte a
few days later, six men were killed in the Butte
Superior shaft while going to the surface in a
cage loaded with drilling steel 1t was against
orders for the men to ride on the cage contain
ing steel; and 'yet they took the chance against
the wishes of the station tender, and persisted,
being terribly mangled and dismembered
At Park City, Utah, only few days after
this sad occurrence, two We're drowned in
the DAILY West stump. The engineer claims he
was given the signal to lower and as a result,
dropped cage full of men into the sump The
station tender says the signal to hoist was given
The misunderstanding resulted in the death Of
the two men, and the narrow escape of several
more miners.
At all of these mines every safety device is
employed and strict orders regulating every
feature OF mine work supposed to be in
force; and yet, notwithstanding, death was Turk
ing where all seemed safe and secure And thi,
all goes to show that, even with the stricteSt

GOVERNOR is ON THE RIGHT TRACK

Governor eddie, in telegram to the confer
encence OF governors, expresses dissatisfaction
with the present divorce laws of Nevada and
intimates that he will advocate amendments
looking to the improvement of existing conditions
at the next session Of the legislature. The tele-
gram is, m part, as follows:
. IL the question of divorce laws is dis
cussed, please say for that while |
not prepared to state just what changes i'll
the laws of this state will advocate, am
most anxious for an improvement of exist
ing conditions which have caused much
unfavorable comment some of which is
merited and much of which is unjust ~,
harmful
The governors announcement will be hailed
with pleasure by every citizen Of Nevada who
holds the states good name and fame above
prostitution for price The present nefarious
divorce laws of Nevada, says the Ely ExpoStor,
a reproach TO the intelligence and morality of
people undcservng of the stigma. The laws
were passed and have been retained on the sta
ute books through the efforts of shyster lawyers,
dollar worshipping lingerie dealers and caterers
and wet goods vendors We do not agree with
the governor that much of the criticism that has
been directed against the state, account OF
It's lax divorce laws, is unjust. No criticism
is too severe for state that will enter the open
market and bid for the privilege Of having its
courts wash the dirty linen of the matrimonial
misfts of the world. And that is precisely what
Nevada has done in making the term of resi-
dence for divorce applicants shorter by half
than is the in any other state in the Union
Bad the laws are with reference to the grounds
for divorce, and any old thing suffces, they
would not be Objectionable only bona
de residents Of the state permitted to take adj
vantage Of them. The way it has been for the
last two years citizens of other states, who are
not residents of Nevada and never intend to be-
come such, come here, pay room rent for six
months, perjure themselves and go away with
Il while you wait decree tucked about their
person. Nevada. through its laws. has openly
and f1agrantly bid for this business for the dol
lars the Divorces would have to spend during
their enforced residence; and having received
the money it should not object to the criticisms
A great howl of rage went up from the
throats Of the ShASters and others because Law
yer Schnitzer advertised to the world the laxity
of the Nevada divorce laws for the purpose of
course, of increasing his business 1t never
occurred to these virtuous people, apparently,
that the evil was in the laws rather than in
Schnitzer and that laws that could not be adj
vertsed to the world without bringing shame
TO the people of the state were unfit to be 100
the statute books
The EXpositor congratulateS Governor Oddia
the position he has taken regarding til" Iii
vorce question and his determination to wipe the
foul blot from the good name of the state lie
can perform better service to the state over
whose destinies he presileS than by removing
the odium that now attaches to name, because
of its divorce laws.

The Municipal Congress.

Washington can we'll afford to be
prominently identified with and repre-
sented at the municipal congress and
exposition, which will hold its sessions
in Chicago September 1890. The gath
erIng will be attended, according 10 lat
est reports, by municipal officers and
public-spirited citizens from nearly
every important city in this country and
from number in foreign lands In
many instances the heads of every city
department have signihed their intention
of attending the sessions The pro-
gramme includes consideration OF sub
'jects affecting every phase of civic de-
velOpment and government, and the aim
OF the gathering, in a word, is higher
standards for cities
Washington will be represented in the
exhibition by its plans for development
according to the park commissions
scheme, but thirty other cities will also
have exhibits. It would be well if
the head OF every department of our
municipal government and committees
from the large civic organizations could
arrange to attend the convention and
participate in the sessions.
The convention affords a fine oppor-
tunity for placing before the heads of
American cities the needs Of the one
city which belongs TO the whole nation
and in which all citizens Of every other
city should have pride and interest
The Washington Herald strongly urges
that the Chamber OF Commerce and the
Board OF Trade give this important
gathering their attention, with a view TO
having the city we'll represented.

Training for Women.

The higher education Of women is a
subject which. in the present day, is
receiving much careful thought 1t is
a question which appertains to the vital
forces and stamina of a nation. Al
though many are opposed TO women re-
cciving equal education with men, it is
difficult to elicit from such an intelligent
and logical objection
Higher education cultivates new
ideals, new standards, broadcns the
mental vision. and qualities a woman to
discharge her duties to husband, family,
and society.
Man braves the storm and dangers Of
his fate;
But woman is the mother Of the state"
Herein lies fundamental thought ex-
pressed more forCibly than would vol
umes. As Wordsworth said. The child
is father Of the man" The position of
woman with relation to her children. is
a most important one, both to the in
dividual and to the nation. Her power
over the human race is momentous. 1t
her influence over her children be good,
beneficial. and uplifting, it will be a
mighty force to advance and improve
humanity. The father IS absent. or at
tending to the duties of his vocation. and
consequently he cannot devote his time
and attention to the instruction and
training Of his children. Hence this all
important task devolves upon the
mother, who is ever with them and
whose sole care, instruction. and soIici-
tude are devoted to their mental as well
as their physical development.
As conditions have been, and as they
are to-day, in the majority of instances
the children reach an age, and, unfortu-
nately, often at a tender age, when the
mother can no longer teach them, be-
cause she is not equipped to do so
Such a condition should not exist. The
higher education of women should be
encouraged, and when the day comes
that the mothers of this now great
republic stand shoulder to shoulder with
men in mental development we shall see
this country unequaled in the history
of the world and surprising contempo-
rary nations in all that is desirable.
The Washington herald., 1911-08-31
The Board Signs Should Go.

On the Ist of September, under the
new law which has been enacted in New
York, all advertising signs must be re-
moved from the public highways. The
trees along the roadside will no longer
be defaced by tin placards and the
fences will be freed from legends which
offend both the eye and good taste.
Legislation which would prevent the
erection of huge billboards in fields
bordering upon the railroad right of
way throughout the country is probably
impossible. inasmuch as these Offend
ing structures are placed upon private
property. They ought, however, to be
abolished They are a nuisance and an
intiiction. 1t is extremely doubtful also
whether they have a real value as an
advertising medium. No man or woman
Of intelligence is to be cajoled into pur-
chasing an article whose merits are dis
played in this fashion.
And when. as is frequently the case,
these signs become weather-beaten,
dilapidated, and forlorn, they are an
eyesore and blot upon the landscape.
A journey in railroad train free from
the constant appearance of glaring signs
would be a satisfaction not now en-
joyed.

Offices Opened on the Eighth
Floor of Evans Building.

Senator La Follettes Presidential boom
Is ensconced in a room on the eighth floor
OF the Evans Building. Walter L. Houser,
secretary OF state OF Wisconsin, is in
charge OF the headquarters. Mr.. Houser
admitted yesterday that he had paid two
months rent already. and chuckled be-
cause the newspapermen in Washington
had not discovered his headquarters be-
fore.
He has been busy, as his correspond
ence showed. Mr.. HOuser had a large
stack of letters from persons Of ''insur-
gent leaningS in many OF the Middle
Western States. The writer's told him
how unpopular President Taft's admin
istration had been, and urged the Senator
from Wisconsin to get into the fight
against the President
Mr.. Houser is an optimistic person.
He says he believes Serator La Toilette
will be nominated. He expects his entry
into the Presidential handicap to run
away with several of the Western and
Middle Western States
The name and style Of the new move
ment is rhe headquarters Of the pro-
gressive Republican movement" Its OBJ
ject is to bring about II possible the
nomination Of Senator La Toilette as the
Republican candidate for President.
