Rock Drilling Contest.

The Spokane Interstate Fair will
feature among its amusements this
year Miners Rock-Drilling contest,
which was a strong drawing card at
the shows of 1907 and 1908, and in view
of the increased interest in mining at
the present time, the management be-
lieves that the contest will prove very
popular.
A number of expert drilling teams
have signified their intention of COM
peting for the generous purse offered
$500 to the winning team, and $500 to
the second best-and attempts will be
made to better the record made by Nc
NicoI and Pickens of Butte, Montana,
in 1908, of Sc So inches drilled into
solid granite in Is minutes.
Information may be obtained from
Conrad Wolfe, superintendent of con-
test, 418 Hutton buildging, Spokane.

Progressivism in Actual Practice.

Lewiston Tribune: The city of
Dallas. Texas, has a great newspaper,
one of the greatest in the south,
property worth many millions of dol
lars, which upon the demise of its
founders passed into the hands of two
women, who have caused it to be de-
voted to progressive and uplift policies.
1t employs the highest class of service,
and presents the progressive argument
in able and persuasive terms. Under
its auspices initiativism, recallism and
all the rest have been adopted there,
as there has been no equal or powerful
agency to weigh and examine into it's
propositions, leaving them to be ac-
copied by the average public at their
face value. Since progressivism has
been practiced, however, the public
schools for one thing, have been in
continual tumult until the people are
nigh distracted over the contentious
which they are called upon to settle at
the polls, but which are never settled
diid bhSAS 10 bO pCoSS, OANCA VI obdOiiiNJ
anywhere in the system. Here is what
this great newspaper, the Dallas News,
now says as to the actual operation of
its own creed:
Whether or not the recall can ever
be made to work satisfactorily in Dallas
we do not know. The device is on trial.
1t has been put to a severe test. 1t
was intended originally, and where it
originated as a substitute for impeach-
ment, and for the purpose of enabling
the people to remove dishonest and cor
rupt men from Office. It was designed
to be used only in cases of great emer-
gency. In Dallas it mas been invoked
for quite different purposes and under
quite different circumstances. There
was no charge of dishonesty or corrup-
ticn, nor the slightest suggestion to
that effect, upon either Of the cccasi-
ons when recall elections were brought
on. The operation Of t.,e device has
been carried to the pointcf absurdity. ="
