AS one train moved out, two girls

departing man turned away, and one
began to cry, but the other said:
Keep up little longer, he can still
see U.S."
Another carried a baby, and as her
man leaned out of the window and
the train started she threw it into his
arms, crying: Leave it with the sta

I'd and disenthralled. For this
good work the Redmonds, billions
md their conferes deserve we'll of
their country and will soon he the
axemplars of future ages.
So let US rejoice that Ireland

ters shall attune the harp to notes
If joy, and her faithful sons for

According to one authority, q
principal caus. is the exhaustion
of the easily discoverable, easily
developed ore resources of the
United States, which mas greatly
reduced the opportunities Of the
prospector and of the mining OPP
orator Of small means. This is not
a sudden change, but is one that
has been progressive through many
years. Ore discoveries we're many
and frequent in the sixties and sew
enties, fewer and less important in
the eighties and still more in the
nineties. Since 1891. the only new
mining districts of magnitude have
been Creole, Cripple Greek, Tono-
pah, Gold6eld. Cobalt, Porcupine
and the placer districts of Alaska;
no great number for a period of 20
years.
The successful mining geologist
or engineer employed by the larger
corporations is inclined to do his fl
nancial thinking in terms Of six or
more figures and not in that of pro-
portionate profit. He is inclined
to measure a mine with standards
derived at the Bunker Hill & Sui
liVan, the Utah Copper, the Home
stake or the Alaska Treadwell and
considers anything smaller un-
worthy of attention. The small
mine has little place in his scheme
of things. He visits the property
in question, and. if impressed
samples it., studies its immediate
geology, and hastens back to his
office to write his report. Thence,
he goes perhaps to another quarter
of the globe. The condition of his
employment are such that ne doe.

Representative MEN
SHOULD NOT SHlRK
PUBLIC DUTIES

IdltlUllSIu Is DIS really HldHl1eSl-
ed through faithful and efficient
discharge of the exacting duties of
public Office as by serving ones
country in war and dying on the
field of battle. We have plenty
and to spare of martial patriotism,
says the Spokane Spokesman Re-
view. We have little and none
too much of that costly and diff
cult patriotism which freely gives
its time and strength to the service
of the state in public life and in
public Office.
What America most needs today
in its civic life is hosts of business
men who are ready at the call of
duty to'make sacrifice and enter
public life and accept public office.
There are multitudes of such men
capable, efficient, equipped, in
telligeat and upright-who know
their duty in this matter and yet
refuse every call of society or the
state upon them for the public SER
vice to which it is entitled. They
r long on criticism of public offic-
ials honestly and earnestly endeav-
oring to discharge civic duties to
the best of their ability; but they
are short of the genuine and ap-
piled patriotism that inspires and
compels good citizens to take part
in holding Office.
The loss to the country from
this failure of such otherwise good
citizens is a great and ~grievious
loss. 1t has much to do with gen
Grating the corruption, %ineficiency
and unintelligenec in governmental
business of which American bust
ness men complain. If they wish to
have good government they must
themselves cease to make their own
business their private interests
and personal comfort the center
and be-all of their activities. They
must make up their mind to take
part in public life and stand ready,
IL need be, to make sacrifices and
accept public office.
Washington, whom it is the prac-
tice Of such gentlemen to praise as
an ideal American, had the biggest
business interests of any man of
his time in America and personally
preferred the quiet or private life
to the military career or public
Office. But at the call of duty to
his country he unhesitatingly sacri-

his ease. Every business man
