 He was recognized as business man of the strictest integrity. while in fellowship his genial disposition
 made him a host of friends and not single enemy. He retired
 from the active field of mining in
 this county about eight years ago
 and with his family removed to
 Pasadena, Cal. remaining there for
 about two years, wher he selected Berkeley. Cal. as his permanent
 home. to place his daughters 1T

KITTEN WILL TRY TO GET NEXT

Has Ideas on Dredging Which May Put Spec
 To Paying
(rrom Satusday's Dsiiy)

Frank Kitten, of Ferdinand, In- diana. a manufacturer of machinery. and eonversant with placer mining. after an inspection of several days of the holdings of the Speek Mining Company, on Lower Lynx Greek. returned home yesterday, and Is we'll pleased with the mining feature of that undertaking. In mechanic al line. however. he will recommend that the dredging plant be remodel led, reaching this decision after making practical examination of the old appliance installed when the project was started up several months ago.
 With the improved drcdgc he be licvcs success will result, passing his belief on what Is in evidence and from returns given formerly with the inadequate facilities to handle the ground. It is probable the recommendation made by Mir. Kit ten will be carried out and inn mediate resumption inaugurated The interests of the Spcok people are situated below the crossing of Lynx Greek. and join the old hydraulics which years ago yielded many thousands of dollars in placer gold.

II. J Meany, who has returned from the Old Tiger camp of the Yavapai Consolidated, near Crown King. gives an interesting review of the operations of that property, with which he was formerly idcnti- lied as general manager, and states that tomorrow will close the first year of the continuous running of the mill, with the exception of monthly cleanup days and for slight repairing of machinery. Dur ing that period the average amour, of ore treated has been 1000 tons per month. and at no time has there been a scarcity of ore. Develop ment has been conducted from the 3S0 to the 780 foot level. and a gratifying condition has been es- tablishcd in mineral possibilities 10 be expected in the future. by the increase in gold values steadily com ing in.

A Short Catechism.
Q. I have just read this resolution:


R'soirsd. That corrupt methods and
practices were employed in the election Of
WILLIAM LoRIMER to the Senate OF the
United States from the State OF Illinois
and that his election was therefore inv aid. "
Going beyond and above LoRlMER is
there any rule in regard to methods and
practices Of attaining or seeking to at
tain an office, whereby the difference
between corruption and honesty may be
knownf II practical man should be
induced by another practical man to
fork over 100000 for election purposes,
would the assumption be that the money,
whether used in the State of New York
or elsewhere for such purposes, would
be devoted 10 religious. charitable and
philanthropic objects and incapable
even Of the suspicion of corruption?
A. Every method and practice used
for the nomination. election or good
pleasure Of a good man is holy.
Q. Suppose delegate to a political
convention should swear that efforts
and offers were made to him to bribc
him to vote for a certain candidate.
would such bribery, if proved, consti-
tute corrupt method and practice?
A. Not if the person in whose behalf
the money is offered is good man. A
reward for or stimulation Of virtue
would be distinguished from an incen-
tive TO crime.

and 5000 additional officers and men
for the British fleet.
These demands the National Rerie,c
contributor supports by the following
unflattering description:
The British Empire Ia probably fast
approaching the fatal moment when the
efficiency OF its national organization and
Of its national defences will be tested by
the terrible shock OF war. The national
credit. with consols at 70. has been greatly
shaken. Our naval prcdominance is in
extreme danger. our army has no rela
tion 10 our Imperial necessities and is
| weak in numbers and indiffcrently armed.
Nothing is perhaps more astonishing
to the American observer than the fact
that this latest revelation Of British
apprehension comedies with the gather
ing in British waters Of the greatest
naval force the world has ever seen, q
force which as yet finds no real menace
in the growing German squadrons
across the North Sea. But despite con-
temporary supremacy il Ia plain that
the British are reading the estimates
and comparative strength in the next
few years with disquict, and that the
recall Of the Mediterranean feet has
about rivalled the Moroccan incident
last summer as shock TO British
peace Of mind.
