The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1915-09-23

Governor Alexander has had little
o say about the north and south rail-
Dad since his return from the east. AS
a political asset, and that is all the
governor ever intended it to be, this
much boosted line seems to have lost
Its value. Like most Of the talk in
dulged in by the governor, it was bun
combe pure and simple and the people
are rapidly becoming wise.

Why THE ALLIES WAIT.

THE CITY is STILL SOLVENT.

Regardless Of the evil forebodings of
the Day morning organ, which seems
unable to recover from the shock II
received at the hands of the council,
the city of Wallace Is still in a solvent
condition and is apparently in shape
to continue paying its just obligations.
But in any event 1t is in bad taste, to
say the least, for a paper that is pre-
Isumed to draw It's support from the
people of this city to comment In a
manner that reflects o the credit
and good faith of the municipality.
Referring to the action OF the coun-
ell in making The Miner the official
paper, which implies that this paper
will be paid the customary price for
publishing the ordinances and other
legal notices for the city, the Day or
gan says the city council is facing an
ugly situation" In support of this
statement 1t quotes the law which
prohibits ~overdrawing funds a%ppropri-
ated for certain purposes, and states
that at least two of these funds have
already been overdrawn. One Of these
it says is for certain advertising.
There is no such fund, but there was
an appropriation of 5000 for printed
stationery" This fund is now ex-
hausted and possibly overdrawn, but
none of 1t went to The Miner. The
Day organ got all OF 1t, thanks to the
accommodating city clerk, and we
have heard of no cut prices in this
class of work to save money to the
taxpayers.
If the council faces an ugly sItua.
tion" now on account of the price II
viii pay The Miner for advertising
would 1t have been less ugly If the
Day organ had been designated as the
official paper? Fol- bear in mind, gen.
tie reader, that the offer to do the ad-
vertising for s cents an inch was not
made until the city attorney gave an
opinion, which was accepted by the
council, that The Miner had been le-
gally designated as the official Do per. !
Suppose that the city attorney had !
decided that the action OF the council |
in designating The Miner was Illegal
and that the Press Times was still the |
official paper. would that beneicent
organ have offered to saw money for
the taxpayers by reducing the adver-
Using rate to s cents per inch? The
fact is the manager Of the Day organ
anticipated the opinion Of the city at
torney, for the moment 1t was rem
dered he submitted a written offer
prepared in advance to do the adver-
Using for s cents per inch. But as
long as there was a possibility that
his paper would be retained as the Of
fetal medium, there was no intIma-
ton of reduced rates or ugly situa-
ton" on account Of the price 1t had
and would continue to charge.
For the information OF those who
might be misled by the dope that is
doled out by the Day organ. we
win state that most of the advertis-
Ing that win be done by the council |,

1t is sincerely hoped that William
Jennings Bryan will accept the inyi-
tation of his peace-at-any-price
friends and go to Europe as the lead
ing apostle of that detestable cause.
While it would be a fruitless mission,
1t would have the advantage of giving
our own country a rest from his cease
less chatter.

H CRISIS.
CJames Russell LOVELY

when a deed is lone for freedom
through the broad earth's aching
breast
RUM a thrill of joy prophetic, trem-
bling on from east to west.
And the slave. where'er he covers
feels the soul within him climb
To the awful verge of manhood, as
the energy sublime
OF a century bursts full blossomed on
the thorny stem of time.
Through the walls of hut and palace
shoots the instantaneous throe,
When the travail of the ages wrings
earths' system to and fro;
A. rho birth Of a new era with a
recognizing start,
Nation wildly looks at nation, stand
ing with mute lips apart,
And glad truths yet mightier man-
child leaps beneath the futures
heart.
For mankind are one in spirit and an
instinct bears along,
Round the earth's electric circle, the
swift flash OF right or wrong;
whether conscious or unconscious, yet
humanity's vast frame
Through its ocean-sundered fbers
feels the gush of joy or shame
In the gain or loss of one race all the
rest have equal claim.
Once to every man and nation m
the moment to decide,
In the strife of truth with falsehood,
for the good or evil side;
Some great cause, Gods new Messiah,
offering each the bloom or blight
Parts, the goats upon the left hand,
and the sheep upon the right,
And the choice goes by forever 'twixt
that darkness and that light.
They have rights who dare maintain
them; we are traitors to our
sires,
Smothering in their holy ashes free
dom's hewitt altar-fres.
Shall we make their creed our jailer?
shall we, in our haste to STAY,
From the tombs of the old prophets
steal the funeral lamps away
To light up the martyr-fagots round
the prophets of today?
New occasions teach new duties; time
makes ancient good uncouth;
They must upward still, and onward,
who would keep abreast of truth.
Lo, before us CLEAN her campfire; we
ourselves must pilgrims be,
Launch our Mayflower, and steer bold
ly through the desperate winter
sea,
Nor attempt the futures portal with
the past's blood-rusted key.

LAST INSTALLMENT ON LOAN
Payments at London Cause Activity
at Bank of England.

LONDON. October 20. 1885 am
There was unusual activity at the Bank
of England today owing to payments
on the last installment of the ~ per
cen. war loan issued In June. The last
day for the conversion of consoIs and
the old 3l4 per cent war loan into the
new loan falls four days hence, and
ARRANGEMENTS were made whereby sub
scribers could pay in advance with
post dated checks.
No official announcement has been
made regarding the form which new
government borrowing will take. Some
indicatlon is seen in financial circles.
however. In the recent efforts to keen
up money rates. 1t is believed that as
means of financing the war tempo
rartly the government will issue treas
ury bills. made attractive by a slightly
higher interest rate. These, it is
thought, will be followed later by ennis
sions of exchequer bonds running one
to three years.

INTEREST SHIFTS FROM

Studebaker the Leader-Rails Gen
orally a Point Higher-Many
Minor Shares Improve.

NEW YORK, October 26.-One of the
special features of the stock market
this morning was the shifting of inter
est from the war stocks to the railroad
shares. This was, quite general; SC
much so that the former active spe-
cialtiess were at times neglected and
came over the ticker occasionally
where heretofore they have monopolized
attention.
There was more anxiety manifested
on the street regarding the action to
be taken at the meeting of the directors
of the Steel Corporation, to be held
this afternoon, as to resumption of
dividends on the common stock.
There are those who look for a dis
tribution. but the great majority are
opposed to the theory that there will
be any resumption before the January
meeting.
Just what effect a passing of the
dividend viii have remains to be seen,
but the trend of prices on this stock is
generally in the direction of higher
figures. aud the bull movement in it
may reach considerable proportions.

waiting attitude developing. with
verbal speculation on the prospects pro
and con for dividend on Steel COM
mon. The meeting of the directors was
set for o'clock this afternoon, too
late for amy action to be reported In
this column.
The fact that Steel common had risen
to s7A caused some rumors anent a
dividend but they were Counteracted
by the majority holding that the divi-
dend would be passed.
Slight recessions from high were
noted here and there, but a reasonab bly,
Arm tone prevailed.
Some traders were picking here and
there among the inactive list in the
hope of starting something that might
attract bull following.
Steel common dropped back point
