Insurance Bureau Issues Warning.

The Arizona Corporation Commission has issued the following notice for pub lication throughout the state: To the citizens of Arizona:---
 The attention of this department has been directed to letter being circu- lated among the citizens of this state by the officers of The International Liberty Union of the World" whose head office is at Covington, Kentucky. This is fraternal beneficiary society organized in the state of Ohio at time when there was no state supervision. Later it was compelled to leave the state and removed to Kentucky.
 The Lodge is composed mostly of ne groes and one w. G. Critchlow is pres ident and his wife, J. H. Elliott, is sec retary and treasurer.
 Its regulations prescribe that the Board of Trustees or any committee appointed by them, may pay to mem- bers or benefciaries, in good standing such cash benefits as they may deem proper and just, not to exceed l0S.
 It has recently been examined by the states of Alabama and Kentucky and has been given sixty days in which to dispose of it's business and leave these states.
 You are warned rot to become a member of either the grand lodge or subordinate lodges in the belief that you are obtaining insurance, as the matter of paying benefits is purely op- tional with the board of trustees.
 The Association is not licensed in the state of Arizona and anyone working for it in this state lays himself liable to fine and Imprisonment and will be promptly prosecuted.

Mining in Nevada.

When one considers the many ob- stacles which have been placed in its path since the artificial panic of 1907, the condition of the mining industry in Nevada is wonderfully good at this time, says the Tonopah Miner. For several years previous to the panic there had been an era of wild specula- tion, and mining promoters got their full share of the easy money that was to be had for the asking.
 When the panic came on, as is usual in such cases, the pendulum swung to the other extreme, and since that time it has been extremely difficult to secure money for any speculative investment, no matter how promising. The middle class and smaller investors, as well as the big fellows, have sewed up their pocketbooks and sat tight.
 Mining investments have suffered particularly owing to well organized and extensive campaign of 'educa- tion', that was doubtlessly inspired and paid for by Wall Street interests, by means of which the idea was firmly fixed in the minds of large proportion of the people that there was no honesty in mining or anybody connected with it---save and expect few of the big guns.
 Mining has had it's full share of con- scienceless fakirs, but it would be hard to pick out one whose acts have been so morally rotten and far reaching in eff fleets as the one or ones responsible for the footing of the New Haven railroad for instance.
 But "advertising pays' and the press bureau of the Wall Street crowd for some years diverted the public mind from their own inquiries to those of the mining promoter.
 To add to our burdens came the European war, which has completely upset the market for copper and seriously affected the silver market for a time at least.
 Notwithstanding all these drawbacks the mining industry of Nevada is in quite good shape---a fact that is abund- antly proved by perusal of the Miners news columns. In addition to the news of the Tonopah mines, there are live news articles in this one issue regarding some 23 other mining camps in the state of Nevada. These include Goldfeld, Tonogold, Cuprte, Monte zuma, Manhattan, Seven Troughs, Rochester, New York Canyon, Trinity mining district, Boss mine (near Good springs), the Hasbrouck mlne at Gold Mountain, Aurora, Bullion, Limerick Canyon, Rawhde, Contact, Lone Noun tain, the opal mines, Pine Grove mine Uyon county) Bishop Creek Gust over the Nevada line), Masonic, the Con- stock, Lizard mine (near Dayton), and the Star Peak mine (near Mill City).
 That makes rather good list and shows that mining in Nevada is on a good solid basis in spite of untoward conditions.

More Opportunities in
 Mining Than Ever Before.

There has been altogether too much said, and altogether too much good white paper wasted of late by the ''pro- fessionap' yellow-legged, sky-scraper mining engineers on the "Decline in Prospecting.
 There has been no decline in pros pecting at all; it may be true that few of the states have been neglected for other newer or more favored fields; but on the whole, when they are all added up, it will be found that they are really nor. men engaged in looking for mineral today than there has been for years, or at least since those who now berate the honorable calling of the prospector have been out of short pants.
 It is not that there is shortage of pros pectilg or of good prospects, but on the otner hand, if there is any let up in mining at all, It is due to other causes.
 One of the causes, if we were called upon to express an opinion, is the lack of real mining men. Not that we are really admitting that tn,re is any let up, but there less of the old school of mining, those who swore by and at the prospector and his prospect, in the business today. In the old days the prospector could cash in his prospect for enough to get another grub-stake and be away on his journey looking for another. Tnos4 were the days of Tevis-O 'Brien-H -Hea rst- -Haggin-Daly and dozens of otners, the days of individual mining. Every one of them left mil lions; every cent came out of the ground. Every cent of the great Clark fortune has been made in mining, and he is about the last of the old school of great pioneers left.
 The smart man of today, backed up by MT. Ye'lowlegs referred to, wants the ore all blocked out, and cannot be induced to put lis money into pros pect. That's one r.s son why so many good looking ros ects .rt lying idle today.
 However, the prospector continues let us hope he w.ll be fortunate enough to uncover sufficient good quartz in this work that the '' Xpert Will be able to discern the ear-mA rks of an ore deposit so that he will be enabled to know that it is mineral claim at least and worthy of development into a miAe.
 We have but little patience with the city mining engineers who decries the decline in prospecting or the industry. Our advice to him would be to get out into the field and knock his knuckles against the rock, and with his superior knowledge of formation and ore dep- Osition, where mineral is and where it Is not, or where he thinks it ought to be, it should be an easy matter for him to uncover the hidden wealth, as well as become Independent as nearly every one of the old timers did in the early days.
 Let him secure grub stake as do the prospectors; this ought to be an easy matter; certainly there are people who have confidence in his integrity or ability to stake him for months or a year?
 With 20 or 100 of such men in the field, certainly something could be ac- complished by them.
