Nevada In Line :
for Mining Boom

Colonel w. A. Root, well-known
to Nevada mining men because Of
his former connection with the Chi
cago Mining World, is in Reno Ell
route from Helena, Mont, to his
home in Los Angeles.
Colonel Root has been absent from
this part of the state for four years
and notes many improvements in Ne
vada. He has great faith in the fu-
ture of Nevada and bases his belief
upon his knowledge Of mining en-
gineering that this state is destined
to become the most consistent pro-
Queer of precious minerals in the en-
tire Union. He states that at the
present time there is a quiet develop
ment going on throughout the state
in mining that the world knows moth
ing about. During the boom days of
some years ago the public formed
some idea of what was being accom-
plished at that time, but at present
there are miniature booms in every
section of the state of which the pub
Tic has little or no knowledge.
In my opinion there is no place
on the face OF the globe where a
man can invest in mining property
with the assurance of getting returns
on his money as readily as in Ne
vada," said Colonel Root. The
amount OF gold, silver, copper and
other metals in the Nevada hills can
not be estimated and is practically
ineNhaustible," he continued.-Jour-
nal.

Hats Off to Boston.
rom the st. Joseph Gazette.

i'ti the ST. Joseph GaZefte.
In building their new city charter the
people of Boston provided that vacan-
cies on the council should be filled by
the council itself. instead of following
the usual rule providing for the hold
ing of special election. A vacancy
recently occurred on the council and
was filled in this new way by the ap-
polntment of one Of the city's most
prominent bankers. James J. Storrow.
who has been devoting his energies
for years to the upbuilding of his home
city. having served with distinction as
a member OF the chamber Of commerce,
OF the City Club, the city planning
board and as a member of other civic
betterment organizations. The selection
seems to have met with general pub
ilc approval and the city government
is to have the advice and active inter-
est of man long interested in large
financial and commercial affairs.
one of the great difficulties in our
municipal government is to induce men
or Storrow's capacity to interest them
selves in matters of public concern. AS
rule. the big men of community are
SO thoroughly occupied in accumulat-
ing money for themselves as to be to-
tally blind to the real needs of the
community. Now that Boston has in
deed one Of this class to participate in
the citys affairs, the results will be
watched in all portions of the country.
