THINGS TALKED ABOUT.

That man of the brain power and
business sagacity of M. NJ Chew
should SO far lose control of himself
as to take his own life, as reported
by our Cecil correspondent, is mat
ter of sincere regret to a host of
friends and admirers throughout the
country. Against great obstacles, and
in an unpromising field, he made many
spears of grass grow where none grew
before. and bring forth great increase.
The writer has known him many years
as an upright, progressive citizen, and
that he should have passed from the
field of his usefulness before the di-
vine call is a matter of sincere regret
to host of admirers.

THREE YEARS OF PROGRESS.

Under this caption Mir. William Allen White has an important article In the current issue of the Saturday Evening Post. After examining. state by state. the trend of recently passed or pending legislation Mir. White concludes that the American mind is definitely made up for that kind of politics known as "progresslvism."
 Toward the end Of Roosevelt's sec ond term many of our biggest citizens were watching the clock. waiting for the sound of i2 on March {. 1909. They seemed to think that Roosevelt had been only a kind of plausible dems- gogue who had dashed the people into kind of unreasoning fury against the corporations. These biggest citizens had apparently unanimously beguiled themselves into the belief that after T. R. walked out Of the White House the country would catch its breath. sigh. take a headache powder. swear of. and resume itS HOrillhi ways out sH tao last three years 1t has become plain that the country can ever again re- sume the ways that were normal to 1t before Roosevelt.
 Although under President Taft the speed and intensity of the progressive movement has indeed been somewhat slackened in federal affairs. yet the energy of it has been in no sense ie. stroyed. merely diverted from Wash ington to the state capitals.
 Mir White analyses the present. status of progressive legislation. mott of Il having become law within the last three years. as follows:
 The recallw. In three states to be submitted to referendum In six more this fall (excluding nlinois.)
 The initiative and referendum Con- plete in eleven states (excluding Illi- nois) partial In fourteen more.
 Woman suffrage In six states ,s- nlinois) to 90 to referendum In Wisconsin this year.

 There is always room to pick flaws n political meetings, or doings tn fact it would not be genuine one if the exception should happen. We hear That no reference was made to the Taft administration.

Was not this a meeting to have the candidate tell Us about his platform? Waa he not advertised Co tell Us what he would and would not do.

The Mines.

o.. Youse has made another
strike in his drilling on the
Scott Jarrett ground five miles
west of this city. He went into
lead ore at 1870 feet and the drill
continued in the ore until the
21O foot level was reached. He
will do more drilling.
Chris Newlands is rapidly get
ting his property in shape to get
back into the producing class.
The price for zinc ores last
week varied within wide limits,
the base range being $50 to S57
with high settling price OF 500.
The bulk of the ore, however,
was sold on a $54 to $50 base.
At these figures there was dis
position on the part of the ore
producers to hold back from sell
ing, but owing to the fact that
many had held the previous week
| it was more difficult to hold the
product over another week. How
ever, many of the larger pro-
tducefs did hold and there was
another small accumulation OF
ore in the bins as surplus stock.
I Calamine ores were selling
quite generally at $27 to $32.
with fair sales at most OF the
camps producing this class of
ores.
Production of ore is being in
creased very noticeably now
among the smaller producers,
but the larger producing mines
are not making much increase.
The fact that the fall and win
ter season is now in sight is
taken by ore producers to mean
that the ore buyers will from
now on begin to buy more heav-
| lily in order to get stock OF ore
to carry the smelters through
the bad winter weather. when
there is certain to be a falling
off in production and greater
difficulty in shipment. Tins
should result in a steady market
the remainder of the summer
and fall.
The lead ore market was de-
void of features of any change
from the previous weeks prices.
The range of base for 80 per
cent lead wss $54 to $57, with
the bulk Of sales at $50.

ROOSEVELT WINS
ALL JERSEY VOTES
Colonel Makes Clean Sweep
Plurality Is 10000.
GOV. WILSON is VICTORIOUS
Taft Makes Good Showing at Newark
but Is Far Behind in other Sec
tions of State-Professor Was
Unopposed.

Newark, N. j., May 30-One of the
most sweeping victories Theodore
Roosevelt has won in the primaries
Republican nomination was recorded
on Tuesday by the Republican voters
of New Jersey. Complete returns show
that the colonel carried every congress
sional district in the state, as well as
the state at large, and that all the %
delegates New Jersey will send to Chi
cago will be Roosevelt men.
Colonel Roosevelt's victory was one
of the most crashing blows he has
dealt the president since they began
their contest to win state delegations
through speechmaking tours.
RooseVelts plurality over President
Taft and Senator La Toilette was 49,
900.
On the Democratic side Governor
Wilson was an easy victor, winning "a
Of the % delegates. He had appar-
emily lost two districts in Essex coun-
ty, where he was bitterly fought by
ex-State Chairman Nugent, who want
ed the state delegation uninstructed.
Returns from the Democratic ballot
ing indicated that Wilson would have
a majority of at least 10000.
President Taft was expected to poll
heavily in southern New Jersey, but
Roosevelt captured the First district
by large majority.
The Fourth, containing Trenton and
Mercer counties, went strong for
Roosevelt, he taking both city and
county.
The labor vote was especially
strong in the Eighth Ninth and Tenth,
and it was for Roosevelt, for he swept
all three districts. In Essex county
where Taft was expected to win,
Roosevelt was the victor by two to
one
Hudson county, containing the Elev-
enth and Twelfth districts, stood three
to one for Roosevelt.

GUANTANAMO Is SAVED

Rebels Menace Naval. Station as Prai-
rle Lands Force-$1 100000
American Capital in Peril.

Washington, May Occurring plan
tations and sugar mills and threaten
ing the white inha bitants with death,
10000 negroes, 5000 of whom are well
armed, are sweeping through the
eastern portion of Cuba, practically
free from all restraint.
The alarming spread and menacing
character of the insurrection, which is
now war of races, is described in
dispatches received by the state de-
partment.
Only the timely arrival of the
transport Prairie, bearing 1000 ma
rines on Tuesday saved the United
States naval station at Guantanamo
from capture and destruction by the
rebels.
Against this force of 10000 negroes
is an unframed and timid Cuban force
of 1000 alarmed men, whose inactiv-
ity is the source Of bitter criticism by
the department Of state.
1t is the intention of the United
States to establish camp of 2.4OO
marines at Guantanamo and to oper
ate against the instruction in Guam
tanamo province from there.
The department of state estimates
the amount of American capital in
peril in the eastern district Of Cuba
at more than $100,0O0,00O
Washington, May 29.-Despite the
message of assurance that the United
States does not intend to intervene in
Cuba, sent by President Taft to Presi-
dent Gomez, on Monday, active prep
arations for an indefinite occupation
of the island are going forward rap
idly.
