Lower Costs of Assaying

Hereafter a charge OF one dollar for each assay will
be made by the government assay offices III Carson City,
Salt Lake. Helena and Boise. This announcement has
been made as the result OF an order issued by Secretary
AcAdoo OF the Treasury department, and the action of
he secretary is understood to have been taken upon the
recommendation OF Robert Woody, director Of the United
states minis.
was three dollars for each metal and Director Woody was
moved to commend a reduction in the price by hear
ing complaints, while on a recent trip through the west,
nat this price was unrcasonablv high for some OF the
metals. The price OF one dollar has been fixed for all
metals, but it is likely that this order will be amended
and that some assays will necessitate higher prices, since
The assaving OF tin, tungsten and d few other metals will
not be covered by this cost: Even at the new price the
assayers offer no advantage over dealing with
commercial assavers.

Panama Never Satisfied

The Republic of Panama is still unsatisfied with
what it has received from the United States and Is asl-
ing tor more. The Panama government proposes that
d new treaty be concluded between that country and the
| nited States, by the terms Of which it IS proposed to
transfer to Panama all the railroad-owned lands
within the cities of Panama and Colon, except those mon
which buildings have been erected or which are to be
used by the railroad, and to revoke all privileges enjoved
by the railroad by virtue OF contracts entered into with
Colombia.
Other sweeping demands are made, includino ner-
mission Tor Panama to construct two railroads into the
interior. the United States to issue bonds to cover the
total cost OF such construction, payment to be made
later by the Central American republic. A proposal for
the On1ted States to buy the country outright and return
1t as a gift would doubtless be received with favor bv ~
acquisitive and thrifty ~neighbor.
