for the development of water power and the use of public lands in relation thereto; the Secretary of the Interior is authorized by this bill to lease to any citizen, association or corpora ton, any part of the public lands of the United States, including Alaska, reserved or unreserved (eXcepting national parks and military reserva- tions) for period of not longer than fifty years, for the purpose of con structing, maintaining and operating dams, water conduits, reservoirs, power houses, transmission lines, etc. The Secretary is authorized to give preference to applications for leases for the development of electrical power by the State or any county or municipality.
 s. S75 by Senator Smith of Arizona provides that the mineral lands of the United States shall not be affected in any way or the manner of acquir- ing title be altered or modified by reason of such lands being included within any reservation created by ex- ecutive order.
 Probably the Senate bill, 52, by Senator Shoot, and the House Bill IS, by Mir. Taylor of Colorado, practi- cally identical in their terms, more materially affect our mining legisla- ton than any other proposed act These bills provide for a commission to make uniform and to codify and to suggest amendments 10 our general mining laws. It is understood these mining bills have the active support and endorsement of Secretary Lane, the American Mining Congress, the Metalurgical Society of America, and the American Institute of Mining Engineers.
 Mir. Ray further stated that he was cmphatically in favor of a uniform mining code; and, for the purpose of giving the fullest consideration to the needs of every branch of the mining industry and all sections of the coun- try affected by the mineral land laws of the United States, it is desir- able that Ringing Code Revision Committee be created by Congress; that the duty of such a Committee would be to thoroughly investigate and examine the mining situation in Alaska, hold hearings, get the point of view of our prospectors and operat- ors, and, unless conditions developed which would make such a plan harm full to us, include in their Code re- vision, the mineral lands of Alaska. Senator Ray stated that a uniform, systemized and workable mining code, applicable to all the mineral land States, and to Alaska, would do much to develope our mining industry, en- courage the expenditure of capital, be preventative of litigation, and would also preclude continual tinke~ng anc experimentation by local and congress sional law making bodies

Mr.. Hughes has not tried to scare
anybody. but has merely portrayed
the errors of the present Administra-
ton and set forth certain principles
on which the affairs of the country
shouldbe managed in the future.
There is a political logic in this por-
trayal, the elimination of which in the
mind of the voter Is expressed by the
frequent remark:
He is the kind of man we want to
steer us through"
This has been said by many a bust
ness man. The qualities seer in Mr..

sincerity and a willingness to sacrifice
