PearsOns magazine says, among
other things: "There are TWEEN.
ty million people in this country
who have trouble with their eyes.
Ten million are now wearing
glasses and eight million of these
are only getting what measure
of relief has been afforded them
by rough guessing. Possibly one
million are correctly fitted but
the tenth million are being driv-
en- toward blindness, either as a
direct effect of the glasses, or
under their false security. Then
there are the ten million entirely
unoared for. Some have sick head.
aches, nausea, nervous prostration,
hysteria, biliousness, chronic consti
patton and long series of bodi-
ly ills which appear to have moth
ing whatever to do with the eyes.
More than we can reckon become
vicious, take to drink and turn
in the dull twilight of despair to
crime.
"The harm done by glasses
which only approximate the need
OF the eye is not understood by
most men who fit glasses. They
do not know the eye well enough
to realize it, yet they practice in
spite of their ignorance. The
public is gulled by them, cheated
out of its money, and done an ir-
reparable damage. The amount
of this damage is incalculable. :"
| have been trying to tell the
people on this Prairie the above
for the past year, but it seems
we must suffer before we will
understand. People who ought
to know better jump at the bait
of cheapness when they want
glasses. This in itself ought to
warn them that they are taking
chances with the most precious
organ Of their body. When you
want glasses or your eyes at
tended, get the best your local
ity affords. If you are particu-
lar and want your eyes fitted cor

ided, likewise the coarse concentrates
from some of the properties may be
cyanided by either regrinding and
treating raw, or by roasting same
first. Some of the baser concen.
trates from some properties will like
ly have to be shipped, and in that
case a railroad would come in very
handy as well as for shipping the
high grade ore direct. and bringing
in supplies. The people living here
and expecting to gain through min
Ing operations should according to
Mr.. Riebling, not wait altogether on
the outsider to do something, but
should show their willingness them
selves, by trying to start something,
especially to look into the power
question, and see If something can't
be done along those lines. There will
be no question about getting capital
in here, after cheap electric power
is assured and a power company
shows that they mean business.
Mr.. Riebling has severed lbs con-
nections with the Jumbo Gold Mines
Co., Inc, which company is working
at the Jumbo mine.

WASH SKATER GOT woRsTED.

While returning from Grangeville
last Tuesday, w. A. Skaters team
ran away, throwing him under the
wagon and dragged him ON the rocks
for quite a distance. He had pur-
chased a new wagon in Grangeville
and had tied his hack behind. In COM
ing down the grade. around the switch
back, the team i'm some manner got
off Of the grade, overturning the wag-
on, and commenced to run. Mr.. Shat
Ger was caught underneath the wagon
and suffered some very painful cuts
and bruises. His collar bone was
torn entirely loose in, front and a bad
cut was inflicted on the hip.
The injured man was taken to- the
T. D. Swarts place by witnesses of
the accident and DR.. Foskett was
called. The following day he was re-
moved to his home where he is re-
ported as resting easy and well on
the way to recovery.-Sun.

1t would appear that with all the
mineral wealth between Leadore and
Lewiston, covering distance of near
ly 200 miles in length and many miles
wide, the people of Idaho would get
busy and try and develop same, and
bring the gold output of Idaho, as
well as other minerals, up to where
1t belonge. The excuse of waiting for
transportation is not altogether justi-
fled, as there is something else need
ed worse than railroads and that is
cheap electric power, like they have
in Cripple-Creek, and in many other
camps in this and foreign countries.
1t should not be a hard matter to in
terest a syndicate in a power pro-
so many natural water-power sites.
The investment should be one of the
safest out, as mines, mills, factories,
etc., would be wanting said power.
With such cheap power, and with
honest and competent management,
together with the best metallurgical
skill obtainable, and suitable amalga-
nation, concentration and cyanida-
ton plants, handsome profits could
be realized out of the mines and min
ing camps of Idaho and Lemhi coun-
ties.
Mr.. Riebling thinks that mining is
no more a gamble than any other
business, if business principles are
adhered to, and thinks no mine can
be made a success where the pay roll
is filled up with relatives and special
friends. Many large cities he states,
in this country and Mexico. We're
built out of profits of mines, which
likewise increased the values of land
in the farming sections near there
and gave the farmers a high price
market for their product, yet most
people have a tendency to hold back
when it comes to mining, and even
show a willingness to knock mining
and the mining men who produce the
metal that after Uncle Sam puts his
stamp on it, they are all so eager
to get hold Of
There Is no cleaner business than
mining If carried on right. as no one
but mother earth is being robbed in
that case. | wonder how many bust
ness people in general can say that
about their business" queried MT.
Riebhng. He says he was surprised
to see in some properties where they
had mined the oxidized ore and left
the slightly sulphide ore standing.
The excuse as was told to him being
that they were not able to treat said
sulphide ore. Mr.. Riebling says that
there is no excuse at the present time
for that at all, as all of the Hump
ore can be treated, partly by amalga-
nation, some in the form of concen-
trates and little by cyanidation.
Everything must be taken care of
however, and all the leaks stopped,
such as the Shiny part of the ore get
ting away and taking values with 1t,
is all uncalled for. The shines should
all be saved with slime tables and
other apparatus and the fine concen-
trates caught that way may be cyan

When Central ldahos Vast Mineral Wealth is Opened Up

That the Buffalo Hump and sur
uunding mining camps will likely be
very active within the next few
years Is the statement made by H.
T. A. Riebling, metallurgical engi
neer Of this city, when interviewed by
4 Globe reporter the other day.
Mr.. Riebling after his return from
New York City, went to the Hump to
Investigate besides other properties,
he new strike recently made on the
Liberty Bell property. where men are
now doing work. The ore which APP
pears to be the beginning of an ore
chute, shows up the full width of

vail on either side SO far. Like in
aner properties in the Hump part
