virtual single chamber government.
Canada's Senate is merely a name,
and 1t may be fairly said that the
single-chamber government in the
Dominion not only exists but also is
eminently successful. If now the
British House of Lords should be
permanently deprived Of it's absolute
veto, in acordance' with the Ministrys
program, and what amounts to single
chamber government should prove
satisfactory to the British democracy,
the example upon democracies else
where could not fail to be profound.
The United States may become pc
culiarly susceptible to these radical
influences. There Is every indication
that the country is growing more rath-
er than less devoted to the princi-
Piles of government by the people.
This Is proved especially by the widen
.ng popularity - the Initiative. tne
referendum and the recall, which are
80 far democratic that q ey ar, some
what unfavOrabIe must fnauy ae
pointed out that the Senate in this
country Is the more powerful Of the
two branches Of Congress, notwith-
standing that it is not the popular
branch. This ct may come to mean
very much in case democracy develops
and second chambers elsewhere lose
prestige and our distribution Of
population becomes even more un-
equal and the Federal principle in our
Government loses ground. For then
the conditions would be ripe for such
a movement against the Senate as
might destroy Il utterly.
1t is not in the least impossible that
the preesnt agitation for the election
Of United States Senators directly by
the people points the way toward an
climate attack upon the Senate that
would completely shatter it's Con-
gressional supremacy. Second cham
bers nowhere are sacred or even
popular. Democracies never liked
them. Let us take a long look ahead

CHIHUAHUA MINES
ARE HANDICAPPE
Activity of Insurrectionists
Prevents Many Mines
From Securing
Supplies.

Mining operations are being carried
on Of late in the western part Of the
state of Chihuahua under considerable
handicap, owing to the revolutionary
disturbances, although none of the
larger companies have as yet suspend
ed work Fortunately the majority
were well stocked with provisions and
mine supplies, but unless freight SER
vice is resumed regularly within
short time there must result suspension
of work, particularly on account of
powder shortage.
Several of the companies, notably the
Rio Plata, Republica, Batopilas, have
for the past few weeks been getting
in supplies from Sonora points and are
marketing bullion in the same direc-
ton The mines in and about Ocampo
appear to be the most affected, and
this is because of their greater dis
lance from a base of supplies from the
west. Prospecting has stopped all
through the Sierras for the past two
months In the extreme southwestern
part of the state, principally in and
around Guadalupe Y Calvo, where many
new enterprises are under way, work
has been prac tically abandoned, and
egress from and ingress to the camp
is now entirely by the way of Fuerte,
SinaIoa. or nearby points in Sonora.
The main camps, such as ParraA
Naica and Santa Eulalia, have been but
little effected. Freight service mas
ben resumed in a desultory sort of way
since the first of the year to some
local points west Of Chihuahua, but on
the western line of the Kansas City,
Mexico & Orient railway it has been
very irregular and uncertain.
While up to date all foreign persons
and property have been unmolested, it
is the general view based on past ex
perience that neither will be safe in
the hands Of marauding bandits. To
date several mining camps have been
captured by the rebels, but the mines
have not in any way been interfered
with.

in the petroleum business TO develop
the Industry and the country.
Capital for the actual drilling of
wells must come from the outside and
if the state offers exactly similar in
ducements to those that are recognized
throughout the worlds oil fields, and
to which oil men are accustomed, they
will not hesitate to undertake the
drilling Of wells in the region. Besides.
1850 acres is sufficient for even the
promoters of companies outside of the
well known organizations that place
the production of oil in this state on
the high plane of productive impor-
lance and add wealth to the nation.
Three Classes Interested.
In the passage of a new mining law
only three classes OF individuals are
worthy of serious consideration; the
state or the people, the owner of the
surface rights and the actual investors
who wish to drill for oil and Natural
gas. BY judiciously investigating the
desires of these combined factors, ig-
noring the bombastic utteranceS of i'm.
pecunious agencies, the legislature
may we'll reach a highly satisfactory
solution Of the question and pass suit
able laws to protect every legitimate
interest While this section needs
laws to facilitate the develNment of
the oil fields, these laws must be
founded upon sane business principles
and not passed to serve doubtful in
terests. 1t is easy to have people say,
Change the law but the embarrassing
difficulty is reached when we ask
Why?
The owners of the surface rights.
those who are actually developing in
good faith and prospective bona fide
purchasers have an undisputed priv
ilege to speak, but the state cannot be
despoiled of its lands merely to salts
fy the ambitions of those who wish
to acquire the public domain gratis,
and there are enough good business
men in the legislature to protect the
school fund against selfish invasion.
The federal government has pointed
out the sensible road to preservation
and all states should follow, granting,
however, a liberal lease system, pro-
tected by restrictions that will insure
against the possibility of abuse.
have ample faith in the field as a flu
ture oil producer and the best interest
of the community can only be served
by making the proposition attractive
to the very best moneyed people who
are permanent factors in the petroleum
industry and not aeroplane financiers
IF the Trans-PecOs country contains
an oil field at all, the area is suffi-
cient to give a minimum of at least
1000 900 barrels per year. At least
80 percent of this would possibly be
on state and university lands q am
not considering the Texas & Pacific
railroad grOunds), and at the rate of
y II percent royalty the schools OF
Texas and the university would re-
ceive pipe line certificates for at least
1880 barrels of oil having a minimum
value of 10 cents per barrel, or $S4 375,
equal to about 1-5 percent on $4,000

GOLD IN CALIFORNIA.
BY Rev. Thomas B. Gregory

Sixty three years ago this month
January, 1S4S-a workman while en-
ployed in making an excavation for
mill race on the south fork Of the
American river, in Eldorado county,
California was attracted by the sight
of certain shining PARTICLES mixed UP
with the comon earth in which he was
delving. He examined them-and they
were Gold! Dropping his pick, the
workman divuIged the secret to his
employed, and an immediate search re-
vealed the fact that everywhere about
them waS-Gold!
1t was a secret that could not be
kept hidden away in the bOsOms of two
or three men, Like murder it must out,
and within a comparatively short time
the wonderful discovery was known
far and wide.
The news spread like wildfire. and
as if by magic men began pouring into
California from all parts of America,
and even from Europe and Asia.
In IS months from the day on which
Marshall picked up the first nugget
more than 10000 people were digging
up the gold-be spangled dirt of Edo
RADIO. BY ship, from 100 alien shores,
the gold crazed multitude poured in.
Across the desert they came, in wag-
ons, horseback, afOot, their course
marked by the skeletons of the men
and animals that persisted on the way.
The beautiful bay of San Francisco
was suddenly surrounded by an extern
poriZed city of shanties and booths. All
ordinary employments were laid aside
Ships, upon arriving. were deserted by
their crews, who, with their officers,
headed for the mines. Law was for
gotten There was but one idea, one
sentiment one impulse-"Goldi GOldP'
But, as Goethe says in Faust. Even
hell hath its peculiar laws" and by and

PLAN SHELTER AT
LAKE VALLEY. N. M.

Hillsboro, n. NJ, Jan. 20.-Announce-
ment has been made that a smelter is to
be erected in Lake valley, Grant county,
to treat the ores of the Lake Valley
Mines company. There are many tons
of low grade easy smelling ores on
the dumps and blocked out in the
mines. The ores run about SIS in silver
and carry a high percentage OF iron,
little silica and considerable lime.
Fifteen men are now at work clean
ing out the old drifts, adits and tun-
nels and retimbering them. The shafts
are being pumped out the sampIing
works put into shape, and as soon as
the preliminaries are over a force Of
at least 40 more men will be put to
work. Necessary machinery is being
bought. The establishment of the
smelter at Lake valley will make it
possible to work many mines now idle,
whose ores are too low grade to stand
the shipping charges to the FL Paso
smelter.
