 The early part of this week a raise on this shoot will be started in order to determine the bounds of the ledge. An extra crew of workers are being put on today and Manager Golden thinks that they will have sufficient ore body ready by June 1 to start the mill and keep it going steadily all summer

RICH MEN HAVE THEIR USES

An esteemed Democratic contem-
porary says: LET us say nothing
to discourage the production OF
merely rich men, We need them
and lots Of them, and without them
the army Of the unemployed would
overrun the country" But did you
ever notice, brother, that the army
Of the unemployed has been continu-
ally growing with the increase IN
the ranks Of the idle rich? A half
century ago there was no such thing
known as the army OF the unem'
ployed.' 1t is very poor brand OF
Democracy indeed which takes for
its premise the assumption that a
few are born to own the earth. and
to live in luxury and idleness, while
the great majority-the plebeian
horde-are divinely destined to toll
and sweat, and like Lazarus Of old,
to depend for a meagre subsistence
upon the crumbs which fall from the
rich mans table. Such Democracy
e. is nauseating. Away with It.
