Recognition of Carranza

Carranza is a persistent cuss. We do not believe he
has changed his policy in a single item since he first start
ed out as a "constitutionalist' to conquer the other warning
factions of Mexico. Today the dispatches state that his
generals are in possession of the capital Of Mexico and
there are indications that he will be able to open a line of
communication from Mexico City to the northern border.
In that event he would be in practical control of most of
the southern republic and in a much better position to in
stall a semblance of stable government than any of his
rivals.
In this connection there are hints emanating from
Washington that if Carranza shall be able to open a line
to the northern border the Wilson administration will be
inclined to extend to his government the recognition that
has been withheld from the heads of all factions since the
assassination of Madero. From the looks of Carranza
%(whiskers included he has it all over Villa and in this case
we might as well go by looks as anything else. By all
means, Woodrow, recognize Carranza.

Growing Cost of Government

On July I the department of commerce issued a report
that throws much light on the growing cost OF government
liz the United States. 1t appears that the total revenue of
the national government during the fiscal year ending
june, I0I3-this being the latest year subject to detailed
study-aggregated $o53,5o7yooo and the expenditures ag-
Sregated $O52OO 900. The corresponding figures Tor
I0o3-comparison being made of ten year periods-were
So57,232ooo and $6I6,730Ooo. The percentage OF increase
in the cost of government between 1908 and 1913 was 81
something more than double.
OF the expenditures on government account tor the
year under review-all included in the aggregate expense
of 1858, 5O7, ooo-the leading items were: For protection
of person and property (eXpense of military, naval, light
house, inspection of boats and naturalization service, S264,
81 900; for expenses of postal service, 500, 10000; for
pensions, maintenance of national soldiers homes, etc,
SIS2, $4,000: for maintenance of legislative, executive and
judicial establishments and administration and executive
departments, $6I7S4,ooo; for improvement and main
tenance of waterways, $42y652,ooo; one years expense i'll
construction of Panama canal, $4I,74Iooo for interest on
public debt, $25,256,ooo; for OUTLAWS on public buildings and
grounds, including military posts, and for the bureau OF
construction and repair of the navy department, S22,630.
600; for education principally maintenance of military and
naval academies, Indian schools, library at congress, ag-
ricultural and experimental stations and study of animal
and plant industries), $I7,243,ooo.

can be followed generally downward between its end
line planes.
The horizontal distance from the outcrop OF the
vein on the Booth claim to the slopes in the Jumbo
Extension ground is between 1000 and $500 feet, and
the vertical difference in elevation is from 800 to LOO
feet, indicating Gf we have the same vein in both)
either a dip as low as 22 degrees or else that the vein
is being followed downward on a course which is
neither dip nor strike, but between the two. Obser-
vations in the ground show that the latter is the true
situation. 1t is possible to pass downward through
the Booth workings, to see the vein on the surface
and on the various levels (nOt always well connected
by raises on the vein) and to follow 1t along the
strike with occasional Interruptions due to taultlng,
through the workings of the Goldfield Consolidated
by a devious and extended line of travel, to a connec-
ton on the vein with the Jumbo Extension mine. Alb
soute continuity has not been proved, and perhaps
1900 feet substantially on the strike of the vein, and
pass out from the stretch of ground included within
the extended Booth end lines, and yet Our average
course is downward we arrive at slopes which are
within the Booth end-lines extended; and we cannot
doubt that we are on the same vein as that which out
crops on the Booth where we started. Throughout
all this long belt of territory much time, money and
labor must be expended by the Booth in order to make
it's case positive, but it can probably be done.
Decisions in similar cases in Idaho which have
repeatedly allowed extra-lateral rights more on the
strike than on the dip, and have been affirmed by the
higher courts, do not offer you much encouragement
for contesting on that ground; and the uncertainty
both as to the extent of the vertical displacement of
the vein where it is seen to be faulted and as to the
vein which the courts would take even if such faults
were proved to be of considerable magnitude does not
justify you in resting heavily on that hypothesis.

Every Child a. Citizen

How one community trains its children for the reSpOn-
sibilities of citizenship is described in a bulletin just issued
by the United States bureau of education on "Civic Edu-
cation in Elementary Schools as Illustrated in Indianapo-
lis"
The practice in the indianapolis schools" says Ar
thur w. Dunn, author of the bulletin, lis to help the pupil
to understand the nature of his own community life, his
d~epedence upon it, and his responsibility for it; to develop
a right attitude toward government as the means by
which all members of the community may cooperate for
the common interest; and to cultivate habits of right action
as a member of the community"
The bulletin emphasizes the fact that 'civics is not
taught as a separate subject until the eighth grade, but that
civic education is a phase of all the work of the school.
The aim seems to be to make of education, not a process of
instruction in variety of subjects, but a process of growth,
during which the various relations of life are unfolded."
In indianapolis pupil participation in the government
of the school leads naturally into pupil participation in the
larger civic life of the community of which the school
itself is part. Maintaining order on the playground nat
urally extends to maintaining order on the streets in the
older boys to look after the safety of younger children in
crossing streets near the school. Solicitude for the clean
illness and beauty of school grounds develops equal solicit
tude for the cleanliness and beauty of adjoining streets,
alleys and vacant lots. School gardening quickly stimu-
lates home gardening, and whole neighborhoods have been
transformed through the influence of the schools.
Whether the children who are now undergoing this
training for citizenship will in reality be efficient citizens
ten or twenty years hence can not be foretold, according to
Mr.. Dunn. But he adds: There is apparently ample
evidence that they are better citizens now; and, moreover,
that the present civic life of the city is apparently affected
by it. Where immediate results are SO apparent and so far
reaching, the effect upon future citizenship should certain
~ be appreciable."

Horace V. WincheU's Report

las our readers are aware, the claim of the Booth
against the Jumbo Extension has been compromised in an
anicable spirit, which does credit to the two principals,
Messrs. George Wingfeld and Charles S. ~Sprague," says
Mining and Scientific Press.
In his geological report to the Jumbo Extension com
pany, Horace Y. Winchell summarized the main facts in
an interesting manner and in part said:
Legal rights depend upon the existence of a vein
or lode and not upon the existence and position of
shoots of high-grade ore within it. The vein may
dip northeasterly and the ore shoots rake or pitch to
the southeast within it, or the outcrop upon which
the location made may have quite a different direction
from that of the true strike of the vein; but the claim
may still have extra-lateral rights so long as the vein

For a long time the Pennsylvania railroad has made a
practice of publishing leaflets containing information for
employees and the public concerning the service of the rail
road and its many activities in various directions. These
are sent to newspapers and employees and placed on it's
trains where they may be available to the public. One of
its latest bulletins is entitled "He Serves the Railroad Most

cases these incidents were brought to the attention of the
company by letters from patrons written without the
knowledge of the employees concerned.

Agriculture and mining are not only the two basic in
dustries, but they are intimately connected. When the
farmer is prosperous there is money for mining. Crops this
year are extraordinarily good. The rise in the price of
wheat, due to the war, caused the farmers to increase their
ti1age by 100000 acres. The wheat crop is estimated at
the vast total of oso ,Ooo,O 900 bushels. While the price has
dropped from 10, the price quoted before the expedition
went to the Dardanelles and threatene dto unlock the Rus
sian store of grain, to 81 o4 at this time of writing, yet dol
lar wheat represents enormous wealth when applied to
such a continental harvest. When this is garnered it should
prove stimulating to the railroads, mines and other indus
tries of the country.-Mining and Scientific Press.

general cost of their government during the same year
amounted to S.3S2,55I,ooo or nearly SI5,ooo,ooo more than
their revenues. State income and outgo in the 1903 :
again comparison is made of a ten year period-were $3.50,
10000 and SIS5,764ooo respectively. The percentage of
1913 was 1o5-or again more than double.
The revenue receipts of the counties of the United
States in 1913 were S37oyo43,ooo and their outgo aggregat-
cd $3S5, $4,000. The governmental cost payments of the
counties increased by o5 per cent between 1908 and 1913.
The revenues of municipalities (25,25o population and
over) amounted to ST. ,IoS, 10000 in 1913, while their ex-
enues by more than $I3S,oooooo or about $500 per capita.
All of which makes it clear that the cost of living is
only enc item in the general acceleration of American life.
The high cost of governing has its full share in tightening
our pocketbooks.

Goldfield rejoices that the camp is relieved of the bur
den of mine litigation, with reasonable assurance that it
will not recur. Godfied is favorably circumstance in
that sideline agreements have been signed by and between
nearly all the operating companies and those that are
likely to resume work. There is excellent reason to be
confident of amicable relationship hereafter, avoiding costly
litigation and consequent shutdowns. This will result in
confidence in and demand for Goldfield securi-
ties-BonanZa.

An eastern preacher believes in a literal hell and has
placed its location not far below the surface of the earth
He turns to the mining industry and cites the Comstock as
a proof of his theory. The high temperatures and streams
of hot water encountered in the deep workings of the mines
clearly emanate from a region of perpetual fire, he argues,
that fits the description of Hades. Many of the miners toll
ing on the Comstocks no doubt will endorse the learned
theologian's view; a little more sinking, and they may
encounter imps instead of ore. While it is true that the
eastern divine also points to eruptive volcanoes as notable
proofs of the underground location of Hades, his Comstock
deductions are by far the most interesting. The future
development of the old lode will be watched from now on
with added interest, not unmixed with apprehension. -

Midland Trail Travel

Notwithstanding the knocking INDUCED in by people
in the northern part of the state the Midland Trail is be-
coming known to the transcOntinental automobile tourist,
and almost every day VIC of three machines pass this way.
Strenuous efforts are made from Salt Lake west to Ely to
keep all automobiles bound for the coast to the Lincoln
Highway, but the tourists who desire to visit southern Cali
fornia cannot be kept from travelling over the Midland
Trail.
AS Goldfield will profit from every automobile that
passes through this camp the Tribune would urge on the
authorities the necessity of vigilance in the matter OF the
condition of the highways. An ounce of prevention is
worth = pound of cure. Repair the county roads before
they become dangerous; make them SO good that they will
be talked about and become an advertisement for southern
Nevada.
