PLENTY OF TROUBLE
6owbeIis Water Works System Seems
to be RefsuAd nv links


Bowbells is having all kinds of
trouble with its water works system.
After driving somewhere near five
hundred feet they failed to find a
water vein with a sufficient flow to
supply the city's needs, it was de-.
cided to cut the pipe at small flow
$50 feet down. A fairly sufficient
flow of water was secured here, and
the people were just beginning to
smile, and the water was turned into
the mains. only to find that they had
frozen and burst sometime during the
winter. 1t is not known to what ex-
tent the mains are bursted. but be-
cause of the fact that they were all
filled with water last winter and the
ground was in very loose condition.
officials fear the most of the mains
are ruined.

LIFEBoATs For THE FEW.

The Titanic carried only sixteen life
boats and four liferafts, the total ca
pacity of which was sufficient to accom-
modate only minor percentage OF the
carrying capacity of the ship, which
seems to be the fault of the British law,
because of the fact that the builders
had more than complied with the law.
Furthermore, complaint is made that il
liteboats enough to carry the entire pas
senger list had been provided it would
have been necessary to use one whole
deck to store the lifeboats But that
complaint leses much of its force when
one recalls that these modern sea-going
steamships are yeritabe palaces, luXuri-
GUS, commodious and equipped with
plunge baths, gymnasium or two great
dining-rooms, huge smoking rooms-in
fact, all the arrangements such as to
give the saloon passengers the feeling
that they are not being cramped and
restricted in any way, that they are just
as we'll served on sea as they would be
in the finest hotels In order to devote
50 much space as this to the luxuries of
life. the builders must needs sacrifice
space which belongs to the necessities.
Chief among those necessities is a suffi-
cient fleet of lifeboats to carry every
man.. woman and child in case of dire
extremity like that which befell the
Titanic. If the great steamer companies
think it worth while to save any of the
lives of their passengers, then it is just |
as worth while to attempt to save all

the candidacy of Browne because he be-
lie, ed he had no right to the office.

his short speech with warning against
the danger Of placing leadership with
weak minded men and argued that the

THE LOSS OF PRESIDENT HAYS.
The confirmation of the later fears
that Charles NJ Hays lost his life in the
sinking of the Titanic comes with start
ling force to the commercial world OF the
entire continent, as his death removes
one of the foremost figures in the rail-
road world. As the head of a great
transcontinental system, he was occupy
ing position of tremendous Importance;
and his career is cut off just in the mid
die of the fulfillment Of a great purpose.
The Grand Trunk railroad system will
thus suffer very heavy blow, but the
company is we'll launched on policy
which must have been clearly mapped
out, so that it is left for the system to
select a man of activity and acumen in
order to continue President Hays policy.
AT this time, it is interesting to conjec-
ture just what effect the sudden removal
OF President Hays will have en- the des
TIMES of the Central Vermont railroad,
the Grand Trunk subsidiary, and more
as to what the destinies MAJ
have for President L. II. Fitzhugh of
the Central Vermont, who was one of
President Hays closest advisers. 1t is.
more than probable that the Central
Vermont will lose the intimate guidance
o. its president as the result of the great
disaster.

A NEW FOOD ARTICLE.

Alaska, the land OF the unexpected.
is TO give the country a new food sup
ply-reindeer meat.
Several years ago when starvation
faced the Indians Of Alaska. the gov
eminent brought over from Siberia, a
herd Of reindeer and put them in
charge Of an expert and Of assistants
brought from Lapland. where the rein
deer is the beast Of burden and a food
source. The experiment succeeded,
and now that herd has not only prov
ed a valuable food supply for the In
dams but gives promise of becoming a
national asset.
There are now in Alaska over $4,000
reindeer and they are increasing at
wonderful rate. There are in that ter
ritory 100000 square miles of frozen
tundra, utterly useless for anything
but reindeer pasturage. but capable
Of feeding 100000 deer and it is es-
timated that within a decade large
amount Of meat will be shipped to the
states" each year. Within twenty
years Il is estimated that this viii
reach 100000 pounds a year.
The tundra upon which they feed is
heritage which keeps green and nutrl-
tious under the snow. The deer dig
it out with their horns. II is useless
FOR other purposes but ideal for that
one. Therefore it can never be taken
away from the deer as the ranges Of
the west have been taken from the
cattle and given over to the pillow.
With an annual output Of so large
an amount OF meat which is said TO
excel beef in taste and equal 1t IN
rour,sbment. some Of which supply
may reasonably be expected to appear
on the American market within a short
time, there is hope for better condi-
tons in the meat trade, so far as the
consumer is concerned.

decreased. Increased copper produce
ton i'm Alaska added notably to the
silver output of that territory. Final
figures will probably show increased
production of silver from Arizona in
stead OF decrease and possibly little
change in California.
Preliminary figures compiled by the
director of the mint Indicate a total
domestic production of silver of 57.-
7s6.1l7 fine ounces i'm 1911, valued at
$31,7S7, $50. The production i'm 1910
was 57,137,90O fine ounces. Of COM
mercial value of $SO.s54,5O0
The average price of silver I'm 1911
was 80 cents per fine ounce. a decrease
Of I cent from that of 1910 The year
began with silver near "a cents. but
the price declined to 81 cents I'm Feb
ruary and nuctuated between 50 and
"a cents until November, when IL rose
sharply to about Sc cents. declining to
an average of 55 cents for the closing
month OF the year. Speculation,
chiefly in the Indian and Chinese mar
with the present disturbed conditions
in the Far East the market may re-
main uncertain for some time.
According to estimates made by the
Bureau of Statistics the imports of
silver i'm 1911 were valued at $27,-

foreign bullion. $2150.O0O in United

decrease in production from the great
Cripple Creek camp.
In addition to the yields from plac-
ers ana gold siliceous and pyritic ores,
notable contributions to the gold pro-
duction were made from copper, lead,
and mixed ores. particularly i'm Utah
and Arizona, the mining of which was
also generally prosperous i'm 1911. Not
withstanding decreased output of
copper in some states, due in part az
in Montana. TO prearranged curtail-
ment. the total production of copper
was greater i'm 1911 than i'm any pre-
vious year except 1909 The output of
lead and of mixed ores was also not
ably heavy in 1911
Increases i'm output of gold are indi-
Gated by early figures published by
the director of the mint as follows:
Idaho, $133.361; Nevada. $94.S7s; New
Mexico. $162,697; South Dakota. ST.

ever, indicates that final figures of
production and OF exports of ore smelt-
ed in British Columbia and Mexico
will show increases In gold output
from Alaska. Arizona and Washington.
The great bulk Of the gold produc-
ton from deep mines is derived from
ore treated at gold and silver amalga-
nation mills and cyani,'a plants a
much smaller quantity being produced
by smelling crude ore and concen-
trates. Nearly a quarter Of the total
output is still coming from graves
OF placer mines. mainly by dredging
In California and drifting in Alaska.
Preliminary figures of the director
of the mint indicate a total domestic
gold output OF s96.2S3,52S in 1911.
against 500. 26s.lOO in 1910.
According To estimates made by the
Bureau of Statistics the imports in
1911 comprised gold valued at S11,15O,-
coo i'm foreign ore, $2s,SOO,OOO in for
eign bullion. $5,75OOOO in United
states coin. and slO.O50.OOO i'm foreign
COMA total of $50, 200. The gold
exported I'm 1911 was valued at $780,
600 I'm domestic ore. sS.050,000 in do
nestle bullion. $SO.OOO.OOO In United
States coin. and $2.25OOOO i'm foreign
COMA total OF s4O,S00OOO. The ex-
cess of imports over exports was about
S15.5O0, 900. indicating marked
change from the conditions In 1910
when the excess of imports over ex-
ports was $447 500. and also from those
In 1902. when the excess of exports
was $SS.79S,S55.
The gold imported i'm 1911 was main
ly I'm the form of ore and bullion. and
came chiefly from Mexico. although
considerable gold is received from
Canada every year and smaller
amount from the Central and South
American countries. and i'm 1911 "a
large quantity of gold was imported
from Japan The exports consisted
largely of gold coin and went chiefly
To Canada, although smaller shipments
were also made to France. South Am
erica, the West Indies. and Japan.
Increased Silver Production.
The silver mining industry as such
is of relatively small Importance IN
the United States, according TO II. ID
McCaskcy. of the United States Geo!
logical Survey but the domestic silver
production, depending largely on the
prosperity of the gold. copper ant
lead ores. is equal i'm value to that oi
lead or zinc. owing largely TO thu
prosperity of the gold copper. and
lead mining industries there was an
output of silver i'm 1911 estimated a
57,796,117 fine ounces, which is 2,1S2,
gg7 ounces more than the average an.
rual output of 55,613.120 ounces o
the preceding decade and 65S.21'
ounces more than the output of 1910
Aside from the important production
from the milling of the silver golt
ores of the mines at Tonopah, Nevada
the bulk of the silver output is de-
rived from the smelling of crude cop
per, lead and mixed ores and concen'

The annual report OF the National
Association for the Study and Pre-

during 1911 sl4.5Oo.eoo was spent in
this country in combating tubercu-
losis The greater part Of this money
was used in directly treating patients
already suffering with the disease.
while dispensaries and open air

II is better to remove the condi-

is easier. Much has been done in

Of pure air and light and proper food
-as necessary in the prevention OF
tuberculosis and other diseases as in
their cure. The public is learning
that the diseases that are far and

is afflicted are impure air diseases.
And this is the work that counts.
The campaign must be one OF educa
