COM MENDs WORK OF MINER"

Referring particularly to the recent
compilation of figures showing the
output and operating expenses of the
mines of this district published in The
Miner few weeks ago, and in gen.
eral to the beneficial work this paper
is doing for the Occur d'Alenes, the
Wardner News says:
"A recent compilation Of figures by
The Wallace Miner, that splendid
booster Of the worlds greatest silver.
lead camp shows the exact production
of the mines for the past II years. The
report is taken from the sworn state
ments as on file In the office of the
county assessor and furnishes
world OF information as to the posi-
ton the Occur d'Alenes occupy in the
mining world. During the past 30
years the total production OF the dis
trict will exceed quarter Of billion
dollars, possibly $275,O00.0O0 The
report Is tabulated for each year and
Is a most commendable piece of
work"

COOLING AND THE SPECIAL SEES.
SION.

While in Moscow the other day ex-
Governor Gooding declared himself
strongly in favor Of calling special
session Of the legislature. He said
there were a number OF questions
which needed legislative attention,
but mentioned only one, namely. the
shortage Of serum for the prevention
OF hog cholera. This Is a matter that
might well receive the attention Of
the legislature, but 1t would seem that
hog raisers like the ex-governor could
manage to take care Of the matter un-
til the regular session. The governor
admits that the sentiment throughout
the state Is strongly against the ex-
ira session. and then by inference
rays the people don't know what they
want. and that II he were in Gov
ernor tiaines' place he would not hesi-
tate to call the legislature together.

history Of the progress Of mining.
When the first cave dweller ceased to
tear the raw flesh from the bones OF
the animals which he had strangled
with his hairy claws, or killed with
his stone ak, he became miner, and
from that day until now. when so
many Of the forces OF nature have
been subjugated by man, there is not
an hour of our existence on this
planet when we should not be re-
minded OF the contribution which the
miner has made to the comfort Of our
existence.
"Therc is no modern industry which
does not have as the base Of its ex-
istence the products taken from be-
meath the surface of the earth. Every
art and every science owes Its debt to
the miner"

MINING.

1t Is not uncommon for intelligent
and successful men to decry mining
as a questionable pursuit, and editors
and managers of some of the great
newspapers Of the country practically
bar mining. news from THEM columns
except to attempt to discredt the in
dustry by giving prominent publicity
to some alleged fraudulent transac-
ltions in mining shares The men en-.
gagged in mining have no objection to
the publication Of these fraudulent
operations when the facts have been
established; in fact, they are more
deeply interested than any one else
In having them exposed. but they want
publicity given to the other side also.
They want It understood that fraud
in mining operations Is less frequent
than 1t is in land promotions, patent
devices, and in many classes Of stock
speculation which are held up as leg
itimate business methods.
Many people apparently fail to
grasp the true Importance Of the min.
ing industry and the value to civlli-
cation Of the work Of the miner. This
idea is strikingly brought out in the
following from the pen of H. J. Can't
we'll Of ST. Louis:
1T seems like painting the lily and |
gliding refined gold to attempt to
demonstrate before an assembly OF
intelligent people In America the i'm
portance of the mining industry to
the commercial and industrial life Of

words industrial and commercial

PLAN TO REWARD DISHONEST
BANKING.
PHILADELPHIA Ledgerl

philadelphia Ledger)
That precious bank bill is to be
loaded down with another southwest
ern theory Of economies. 1t is pro-
posed to incorporate in the federal
law a guarantee for bank deposits.
The method Of doing this Is to levy a
tax upon all the banks. so that when
flinsy concern goes to the wall
somebody else shall pay its debts.
The fallacies Of such a proposition
are apparent. What greater induce
ment would a rascally bank official
need to loot his. own Institution than
the knowledge that other and honest
banks would foot all the losses? What
further encouragement would reck-
less official need to engage in every
species of wildcat finance than the
certainty that his own duped depos-
itors would be reimbursed by money
wrnng from others?
Guaranteeing bank deposits is q
plan 10 promote dishonesty at the ex-
pense Of honesty. 1t Is a tax upon
sound banking to preserve unsound
banking. 1t levies tribute upon con-
sentative business to pay a bonus for
promotion schemes.
This half-baked Oklahoma theory
drags from under the foundation Of
banking the very cornerstone of in
tegrity. 1t cuts down the rewards for
building up strong and conservative
institutions, and unfairly minimizes
the benefits of sound methods.
There is no justice in the principle
that wisely managed Philadelphia
bank should be taxed to guarantee the
safety Of deposits In an unwiselv
managed bank in Texas. There is
positive injustice in this attempt to
rob the many solid ones. whose ve~''
soundness, acquired by years Of ser
vice, is an asset of immense value
and put the stolen mask upon un-
worthy institutions.
Such vicious plans are born of the
desire to take from the cities and
states which have and give to those
which have not.

And bid you wake, and rise to fight and win.
Wall not for precious chances passed away
Weep not for golden ages the wane;
Each night burn the records of the cay;
At sunrise every soul is born agan
Laugh like boy at spendors that have sped,
To vanquished joys be blind and deaf and dumb;
My judgments seal the dead past with It's dead
But bind moment yet to come
Though deep in mire wiring not your hands and weep

No shamefaced outcast sank 80 deep

Each morning gives thee wings to flee from hell
Each night a star to guide thy feet to heaven!

COMPANY BOARDING HOUSE AND
STORE.

The injustice of the company board
ing house and store has long been
recognized, and in most places where
they have been maintained public
sentiment, or state laws in response
to public sentiment, have driven them
out Of business. Some companies did
not have to be driven out for the SIM
pie reason that they always recognized
the right of their employees to board
and trade where they pleased and
never attempted to control them In
those matters. They rightly regarded
the good will of their employees and
cordial relations with the local bust
ness men Of far greater value than
the forced profits from company
boarding houses and stores
In this connection special attention

Gle by F. w. Bradley. published in this

mining company just beginning oper-
alton near Juneau. Alaska, of which
he is the moving spirit, he refers to
the policy Of the company toward its
employees and the business men of
Juneau in the matter Of company
boarding house and store. He de
scribes the only correct position for a
company operating near community
which affords opportunity for men to
exercise choice in boarding and
trading and giving them the benefit of
competition in both. Mr.. Bradley
