Mohave County miner., 1914-05-02

As result of cyanide poisoning, two working men at Tumco mines met with instant death on Monday evening. The accident was caused by putting cyanide into the wrong water pipes and in that way communicating the water used for drinking purposes. The alarm was instantly given as soon as the two deaths occurred and an exami- nation was made of the water and the cause was found. Tumco s quite settlement and the accidental misuse of the cyanide might have resulted in an even greater disaster.-Yuma Ex- aminer.

Tired Feeling Hands and Feet
 Due to Kidney Trouble.

Your kidneys surely need help-and quickly-when your hands and feet thicken, swell up, and you feel dull sluggish, lose your energy and appe- tite, and there is a puffy look under your eyes. Take Foley Kidney Pills at once. They act directly and quick ly, and the result is a regular normal acton that keeps the irritating poison ous acids out of your system. Use no substitute. H. H. Walking, Druggist.

Whooping Cough.

About year ago my three boys had whooping cough and I found Cham berlain's Cough Remedy the only one that would relieve thelr coughing and whooping spells.

BELIEVES FRANK
is INNOCENT.

Mrs. Kate Waller Barrett, presl-
dent of the National Council of WON
en- has just returned to Alexandra
from an extended trip through the
South and among the varied things
that interested her while away was a
study at first hand of the Frank
case. Mrs. Barrett, having lived in
Atlanta for number of years. was
naturally interested in the matter
but her feeling was deepened by the
fact that she was in that city when,
the murder was committed and de-
livered an address on a Sunday at
ternoon at one of Atlanta's churches
in the same block where the little
victim was lying unburied'
Mrs. Barrett has no hesitancy IN
declaring her belief in Franks inno-
cence and says that it will be one Of
the greatest crimes of the day if he
is permitted to go to his death with
out new trial. She says that
when the first trial took place public
opinion was so strong against Frank
that it was almost impossible for him
to secure fair trial
Mrs. Barrett's views coming on
the Top of the declaration cf Mr..
Justice Homes who says that he mas
grave doubts as to whether Frank
has been given fair trial will caused
some people in Alexandria to stop
and think
It is Mid to see how Frank again
is to get his case in the courts OF
Georgia, but it is not to be doubted
that there is way in which it may
be done and that this way will be
found. Georgia cannot afford to put
Frank to death despite the state
ment of justice of the highest court
in the land that fair trial was not
granted the accused. A second trial,
conducted with absolute fairness 70
Frank may establish his gull
Georgia owes it to herself to see that
such trial is granted.

LIVE WIRE
MENACE.

The distressing accident yesterday
afternoon by which the life of little
boy was snuffed out when he took
shold of an innocent looking wire at
sthe old Pennsylvania Railroad depot
should cause the authorities to start
Immediately on a thorough eXamina-
ton of the city in order to ascertain
I if conditions are safe from the deadly
current which often makes alive tele-
graph and telephone wires.
Electricity is at present gradually
superseding steam in manufactures,
and the dangerous force is carried on
wires to all sections of the city and
Suburbs. The electric light, telegraph
and telephone companies in many
cases use the same poles, and it is
an ordinary occurrence for the wires
TO become crossed. This is especially
liable to be the case during the prev
lance of high winds. On such occa-
sions wires are often broken and
hang conveniently for children to
thoughtlessly catch hold Of the
same.
Our Board of Health is active IN
selecting water which would be used
on certain occasions and the prompt
manner in which it has acted during
the recent murrain in cattle shows
the organization is awake to the ma
ture of articles which we eat o.
drink. 1t goes without saying that
steps should be taken Immediately to
see that all wires in the city are
properly insulated and that none are
crossed, as they are a greater menace
than many other things.
THE case of the unfortunate little
boy referred to above should be .
sufficient hint that due precaution
should be taken in order that there
he no more distressing accidents from
this source
1t will be remembered that the
day following the wind storm Of
July so 1918, a horse trod upon a
wire on Duke street, near Fairfax
and was instantly killed. Any ped
essrian was likely to have suffered a
similar fate.

THE BLUE SKY LAW.

At the last meeting OF the West
Virginia Board of Trade, at Blue
field. the Blue Sky law OF West Wiz.
ginia was the subject OF critical de-
bate. with Interpretations and ex-
plantations furnished by Auditor
Darst. who is charged with the ad-
ministration Of the law. II we re-
member rightly the conclusions ar
rived at were that the fundamental
principle Of the measure was bene-
hcial and protective against fraud.
but that the law was cloudy in some
respects. which might be cleared by
future corrective legislation.
This is important in the light OF
the unanimous opinion OF the United
States Supreme Court, three judges
sitting. declaring Michigan's Blue
Sky law unconstitutional. We are
not informed as to what pattern was
used in cutting out the Blue Sky law
OF this state. but II is said that the
Michigan decision struck at some of
the features in the same law operat-
ing in sixteen other states. II we
have patterned after the Iowa
statute our law is measurably safe
from conflict with the Constitution.
as a United States court in that state
declared that the Iowa measure was
impervious to constitutional objec-
lions. The objects OF the law are
copmendable. and in no manner seek
to embarrass honest corporations or
enterprises Of integrity. and IL would
be well for the friends and support
ers of the West Virginia law to at
once take measures to correct It's
defects. II il has any.

GOVERNMENT OWNED
RAILROADS

The eminent statesmen and others
In this country who favor govern
ment ownership of railroads would
better study the experience OF Can
ada In this province OF economic en-
deavor before committing themselves
further on the subject. The Railway
Age Gazette contributes some iliu-
minating information on the work
ings OF government ownership in the
Dominion that cannot help but light
the way TO a better understanding in
the United States. The advocates OF
public ownership base their case
largely on the fact that the govern
ment can borrow money at a lower
rate than private corporations. From
this they infer that a saving could
be made in the total return paid for
the investment. But II is claimed
that government construction is more
expensive than that undertaken by
a private corporation TO the differ
ence of $4,000 per mile. In proof
OF this the report OF the Canadian
commission. which has been investi-
eating the expenditures on the Ma
tional Transcontinental. estimates
that in the construction work done
by the government no less -Shan
s40.000.0O0 has been wasted. The
original estimate of the cost TO the
government was sci. 100000 The in
vestigating committee reports that
up to September. 1911. the total cost
had reached sos. 900 900, and that
estimates then made showed that the
final cost would be s16i. 300. 900. and
that II the road is completed az this
9iigure in 1922. when. according to
the terms OF the contract II should
be, II will have cost the people of
Canada in principal and interest a
total of So .G51 ,52l. or about $780,
600 a mile.
The dangers OF government owner
ship IN this country are seen in the
fact that until 1911 the Canadian
Railway Commission. in charge OF
this work. contained no member who
had had railway experience. and ex.
amples are cited Of alleged expendi-
lures for political rather than for
transportation purposes. From all
accounts politics has entered into the
building and management OF the road
an disastrous effect. and II that has
happened in staid, conservative Can
ada. the effect Of government owner
ship Of railroads in the United States
ts not matter OF mere conjecture.
We should profit by the experience
OF others in this line without seeking
an expensive one OF our own.

Those pietatorIaI LAWYERS.

Pittsburgh attorneys representing a
large gas and heat company are pre-
sumptuous TO come into this state
and undertake to define the state
public service commissions duties
under the law and dictate it's service
TO the people OF the state. The com
mission Is doubtless fully informed
and IL will not exceed its authority or
Intentionally do injustice TO the peO-
pie OF the state. Besides the state
supreme court holds that the com
mission is right, where those attorneys
say IL Is wrong. The people will &C
cept the supreme court as right In its
decision. or this matter the follow
ing by the Parkersburg Sentinel is to
the point:
Attorney Leo Well. OF Pittsburgh
who leaped into fame some years ago
as a reformer. and later turned up in
West Virginia as the attorney for the
big gas corporations. passes US the
startling bit OF Information that the
public service commission has no
right TO regulate the gas rates or ser
vice. II was very kind in Mr.. Well
TO put us next to this. because our
supreme court had fooled US into
thinking that the contrary was IN g
case.-Clarksburg Telegram.
