"He bribed us to pose as Americans" not interfere You can go as far as you like, and I'll wager it won't be long before you'll be ready to declare for a republic. Then you'll hear from me-
 
 During the next twelve months the once dead country of Borrovina was a hotbed of buzzing activity. Railroads brought and carried commerce. The great mineral springs, by judicious ad- vertiSing. won worldwide fame. Tour ists and health seekers poured into the country. Mines, concessions of various sorts and countless industries leaped to life. From bankruptcy arose pros perity.
 For the whole twelve months there was toll, toll and more toll. But there were always results. And the center of every activity, the brain and driving power of every venture, was Anthony Hamilton Hawthorne.
 By the end of the year prosperity had come. And an anniversary ball at the summer palace signalized the event. Hawthorne was it's moving factor.
 He had long since become the idol of the BOrrOVtanS; even as hungry anil mals learn to love the hand that feeds them. His was the wealth that had started the ball in motion. It was the belief that his wealth was 5oundless. which melted the people to greater eff forts. Hawthorne was looked to in each crisis. and never in vain. His American mannerisms, even his fervid New York slang, were faithfully imi- tated in court and in city.
 The anniversary ball was to be Flaw thOrne's last appearance in Borrovina. For, now that the little country was firmly on its feet. his work was done. And he was going back next morning to America.
 Yet, homesicc as he had been for his own land. he felt queer little thrill of sorrow as. strolling into the crumbling garden of the summer palace between Gsn-as, he chanced to note the old sun dial. It brought back memories that he had tried vainly to. stifle.
 He lounged over the sundiaI and stood looking moodily down at it. His heart was heavy. What he had done for Borrovina he had done for the sake of Princess Irna. He had saved her fathers throne and life. He had re v1ved the country she loved. And-she

President Wilson's hand is not

Aries or by Americans who lack his
responsibility and patience.
The presidents purpose is not
war. II is peace. It is in behalf
Of peace and not of strife that he
has demanded the retirement of the

about in various ways but time is
likely to be one Of the most pow.

defeat or wreck every high aim to

II is through his triumph that
after fifty years of cxtortionate
war taxation thc people have gain
ed their first relief. II is the re-
suit Of his election that any hope
whatever of n reform Of U war
created finances is held out. It is
to him that the country looks for
corrections Of vicious systems and
policies, every one Of them a pro-
duct Of war and of evil passions
that war always breeds.
There is no public motive for
war, because the president has al
ready announced that never again
will the United States seek n sd-
ditiUnal foot of territory by con.
quest. There is no private motive
for war, because thr administration
is known to have no cntanglements
with predatory Big Business. There
is no foreign incentive to war, ex

ROSEATE VIEW OF UTAH MAN

One of the most rosy pictures
painted Of the mining industry Of
Nevada, its enormous importance
and production Of the past eight
years and what this should develop
into in the next few years is that
Of Robert Murdoch, Sr., a veteran
mining man of Logan, says th2 Salt
Lake Herald-RepUblican. Mr..
Murdoch says:
just some idea # the develop
mcnt Of the mining industry of the
State OF Nevata since 1904.
In 1904 there was 1853 produc-
ing mines with a total output of
mineral valued at $~7,65S,2I6. In
1912 the number OF the producing
mines we're 7O4. with a total out
put of ,35S, 1872, being on in
crease of $40 producing mines and
in increase Of $50, 7OO,5 sic worth Of
mineral. The above figures | have
taken from the government report
of 1912 on the mineral output of
Nevada.
The total amount OF wealth
produced by the mining industry
of Nevada from 1904 to 1912 is
500. SIS 2G. This amount from
one industry acne, and that witt a
population Of only 10000. This
same amount of money ($2O5. SIS

indebtedness Of all the states of the
Union, or more than enough to pay
the salaries Of all the crowned
heads Of Eurup, and al the salar-
les Of all the presidents of all the
countries Of the world for more
than six years. This amount is
more than the total valuation Of
