EXISTING LAWS
Their Enforcement More Important
than Their Overthrow.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: There are some very difficult prob
lens before us which demand solution, and
cause considerable dissatisfaction and un-
rest in many quarters. which will continue.
no matter who may he our next President,
until more progress is made possible tow
ard "A solution and consequent lessening OF
the dissatisfaction. Great differences Of
opinion as to methods exist among politi-
cal parties and among leaders Of the same
party. but II we are to endure as a re-
public II seems very clear TO me that there
ought to be but one opinion among all
good citizens, that the present problems, as
well as all future ones, should be solved
along constitutional lines and existing laws
I believe that President Taft is doing
and has been doing, all he can In this way
and having the laws executed as he finds
them which is the duty OF his high Office.
Personally he might wish some law was
different or modified but ne cannot ad-
minister the law except In the shape it Is
now made Progress has been accomplished.
and I sincerely hope that Mr.. Taft will
be elected for another term. New laws
are doubtless very necessary, as well ss
amendments to some we have. but are not
so urgent as the wise and active enforce
ment of existing laws just as they now
stand
We can't have everything all at once;
great bodies move slowly. and even the in
itiative referendum and the recall will
be subject to this unwritten statute. We
don't want 10 lose the good We have
through greed for more.

The report of the discovery OF the
mother lode Of iron ore In Pennsyl
vania will, If verified, warrant more ad
mration than astonishment. 1t may
seem strange To some that so great
discovery should have been SO long de-
ferred in a region which is supposed 10
have been as thoroughly explored as
Pennsylvania. Yet we must consider the
enormous difficulties Of subterranean
exploration and the possibility of sur
prises in geological region so mixed
and mingled as that Of the Appsla chian
range and its slopes. The incident
gives new point 10 the remark which
was made at the discovery of the North
Pole, that after all parts OF the earth's
surface had been visited and explored
there would still remain beneath the
surface greater and more precious field
of discovery.

FIRE PROTECTION
 FOR THE WINTER

The city council having decided by unanimous vote to dispense with the costly fire department, which had proved burdensome to the taxpayers, Mt. Banks was notified that the pay ments for standing pressure would cease after August 24.
 Standing water pressure is, of course, necessity, if there is to be any fire protection at all. Accordingly the leading business men of the city are raising the amount necessary for con tinuance of the water supply by monthly subscription.
 Mr. Banks will continue in the capacity of fire chief, and is authorized to inspect buildings, stovepipes, etc., and insist upon reasonable precautions being taken agaiost fire.

PLENTY GOLD AT HEAD OF FLAT

Long Shorty Sometimes known as Mir. Storman), who came in from the head of Flat creek the latter part of last week, is prospecting the claims on the hilltop owned by Baird 6o Hoxie. He is getting good prospects right along, and has great faith in the property. As evidence of his industry during the past few months, Long Shorty brought in nice little sample of gold. Asked later what he had done with the poke, MT. Storman replied: Do you think a man who's been in mining camps for 30 years carries his poke around in his ear all the time?"
 MT. Storman believes that the out look for quartz at the head of Flat creek is a very bright one.

WILL ASK FUNDS FOR
 FURTHER INVESTIGATION

Attorney General Wickersham has been requested by District Attorney J. J. Crossley to furnish funds for further investigation into several matters that came before the grand jury when that body was in session here.
 As Mr. Crossley remarked to an Iditarod Pioneer representative, -the Kuskokwim valley appears to have been a regular graveyard of undis- covered crimes, and if money could be furnished for the purpose of sending investigators into the Kuskokwim, it is possible that the perpetrators of sev- eral da,tardly crimes would be brought to justice.
 There are other cases than the murder of the Nelson brothers. For instance there is the case of the Japanese trapper, who so myster- ously disappeared from his cabin on the left limit of the KuskC- kwim, and whose belongings, or some o them. were later seen in possession of notorious character, who was known to have been iD the Jap's company som time just previous to his disappearance
 Then there is the case of the Swed ish prospector who left Iditarod for the Kuskok vim nearly two years ago and was never more heard of. In fact an investigation and careful inquiry might result in clearing up several mysterious disappearance in the Kuskokwim valley.
 In the Iditarod district it is hoped to obtain funds for further investigation into circumstances surrounding the murder of Japanese Mary last October. There is already certain amount of evidence against a man now in custody, but not sufficient to warrant a formal charge

 Gaby's latest part calls for partial disrobing in one of the acts After her first appearance the police waited upon the little actress and told her that while they, personally, had no objec- tions, there were others who thought that it was too much; that the act goes to near the skin. Would she please oblige them by wearing just little more next time?
 Gaby cried with rage to think that straight-laced people should come be- tween her and her art, but gave the necessary promise, and all is well-for while.
