FEEDING THE FISH.
Why a School Of Blue Fish Followed
Ship Loaded With Recruits.

GOdQCO WIN nGCFultSs
Hounded by a school of blue fish
that had followed her $500 miles from
New York, the U. s. S. Tennessee put

loaded a company of United States
marine corps recruits last week, ac-
cording to a letter received by Ser
geant Frank Stubbe of the local re-
cruiting station of the marine corps.
THE waves rolled high" one of the
recruits wrote Stubbe, and, for the
first time in my life | realized the big
ness of the ocean and the smallness of
me, and the minor part could play in
the great scheme of things. Is there
"a life beyond death, l asked myself?
If not, what is the purpose Of my be-

together with some trifles l had eat

feelings, a big blue fish jumped up out
of the water and gazed hungrily into

handsome fellow and knew that I'd
remember him if l ever saw him
again. And sure enough, five days
later, as we were entering the harbor
of Port Prince, and while l was
again meditating on the philosophy of

GOLD AND SILVER.
Springs Which Indicate the Origin and
Deposition of Metals.

Steamboat Springs. New, has tigur-
origin of ore deposits. The waters OF
these springs contain the precious
metals in minute quantities, and the
sinter deposited by them contains sew
eral minerals that are common con-
stituents of ores as well as small
quantities of many Of the rarer me-
tallic constituents of ore deposits. in
Guiding gold and silver Such springs,
therefore, suggest that many and per-
haps most ore bearing veins have been
formed by hot waters rising from the
great depths which have brought their
metal contents up in solution and de-
posted them in open spaces or assures
in the rocks through which the waters
passed, the deposition of some ores be-
ing influenced by chemical reaction
with the surrounding rock. Many ore
deposits are undoubtedly formed in
other ways, for some are unquestion-
ably of sedimentary origin and the
metal content of some others has been
carried down, redeposited, and concen-
trated by rain water that descended
into the earth's crust, but the hydro
thermal" orlgin-that is, their deposit
ton from ascending hot water-of
many Of the more valuable ore de-
posits is indicated by the close rela-
ton observed at many places between
mineral veins and eruptive rocks. Their
NAL waters are believed to be, in part
at least, given off by slowly cooling
and soidfying masses of igneous rock
(magma) deep within the earth.

GILMORE GOLD.
Rich Gold Deposits in Close Proximity

Rich Gold Deposits in Close Proximity
to Lead.
More samples of the rich gold ore
discovered in the Pittsburg Idaho at
Gilmore, Idaho, were received recent
ly at the Salt Lake headquarters, says
the Herald Republican. These came
from the south drift near where it
leaves the main Silver Dollar level
and show finer quality of gold This
is about 200 feet northerly from the
first strike made by Dan Muller. Bonn
er and Tweedy have the other lease.
Supt Fred A. Earl writes to Gen
eral Manager A. S. Ross that some ex-
cellent ore has also been opened in
the same fissure, but to the north of
the Silver Dollar crosscut tunnel. The
ore is not as high grade, but is of the
same character with the strong iron
content. This makes three places the
gold ore has been found. The ore
bearing fssure is between limestone
walls. Mr.. Earl writes that the first
carload of the high grade will be ship
ped directly and he figures that there
should be a lot more coming from this
persistent assure.

THE MINING COMMITTEE.
An Incident Illustrating Interest
Shown by Members.

OnoWn ny WeHnpeTS'
Engineering and Mining JournaD
After the committee on mines and
mining had held hearings during nine
days and had heard evidence and ar
guments to the extent of IT'S printed
pages, the following colloquy occurred
in the form of an interruption of Mr..
Taylor of Colorado, who was making
the concluding argument. IF you will
not grant us this request" said Mr..
Taylor, I'VE feel you are simply turn
ing against the mining interests of the
west without any justification what
ever"
Mr.. Garland-Does the bureau of
mines advise for this?
Mr.. Taylor-Oh, yes.
Mr.. Garland-I did not understand
that the bureau of mines had advised
for 1t.
Hon. Van. H. Manning, director of
he bureau of mines, had appeared
before the committee, making strong
argument in favor of the proposed re-
vision, but up to the ninth day Mr..
Garland of Pennsylvania had failed to
gather that the bureau of mines was
in favor of it. On the ninth day also,
Meyer London, the socialist member,
was still inquiring what recognition of
organized labor there was going to be
in a revision of the mineral land laws.
These incidents illustrate the charac-
ter of the committee that by ma
iority of one vote denied the mining
industry of the west the reform that
It wants and knows to be necessary.

High prices for zinc are responsible

Missouri pillars of ore are left to sup

pillar 8 feet high and 25 feet thick,

worth $3.50, and profit of $3.50. This
pillar was mined, with the result that
a slab of waste IS by IS by 81 feet,

Development and Utilization Is Real
Conservation - The Folly of With
drawing Water Power From Use

Clifford Pinchot, who came promin-
emily into the public eye several years
ago as one Of the foremost advocates
of conservation, apparently has not
awakened to the fact that the Ameri-
can people have debated that question
in their minds until they are satisfied
that it is simply the crazy idea of an
illogical dreamer, says the Boston
Commercial. He is now writing per-
sonal letters to editors, asking the
press to help him defeat a most seri-
Gus attack upon our public resources"
lie says the Shields bill, now before
the senate, gives to the power inter-
ests" without compensation the use of
water power on navigable streams;
that the amount of power these
streams will supply is larger by far
than all the power of every kind now
in use in the United States; and
then he raIGbles on about provisions
which should enable the people to
tdh6 UdCh lllcll oNu plOpCl - at bIlC
enc of so years."
Pnchot Socialist.
Mr. Pinchot is a socialist, though he
probably does not know it, and it is
altogether improbable that the social
lists would accept him as such. His
idea, reduced to it's final analysis, is
that the whole people should own
everything and that the lazy and i'm
provident, through the mere mistake
aceumulations of the creative, the in
dustrious and the thrifty. 1t seems to
be his opinion that one method to
bring about his desired distribution of
wealth would be to hold up those who
finance and develop industries and
make them pay the government for the
privilege of doing business. John Rus
kin objected to steam railroad build
ing in England because in his opinion
1t would deface the scenery. Clifford
Pinchot is afraid some one might de-
velop water power in "the Grand can
yon, the greatest natural wonder on
this continent" Therefore Pinchot is
in no sense original.

possibly, excepting Pinchot, that the |
development of the country's water

property values and that the taxes the |
holders Of such properties will pay will |

Should Encourage Investment.
Mr.. Pinchot thought the coal meas
ures of Alaska should be conserved,
also the forests and now the water
powers. The rest of us in the United
States do not agree with him fully
and therefore it would seem to be up
to him to remove his place of resi-
dence to the interior of South Ameri-
ca or Africa, where everything is be-
ing conserved.
If there is anyone left who has the
development and equipment of a wa
ter power in the United States, after
the way the government has treated
investors during the past eight or nine
years. he should be given the privi-
lege of doing so and he should also be
awarded a medal for bravery.
That water powers or anything else
should be operated at cost for the al
legged benefit of the people" is a fig
ment of the imagination. Profits are
just as essential to industrial and ma
terial progress as food is to a growing
child.
Editors and Pinchotism.
If the full product of industry were
divided equally among those who take
part in it's production there would be
no fund with which to build for the
future. Until there is sufficient ac-
emulation to pay for clearing the
land, providing the seed and cultivat-
ing the plants, there can be no har-
vest, and a part of each crop must be
saved for seed and to feed the work.
ers until harvest time the following
year.
Undoubtedly a few editors will fall
for Mr.. Pinchot's argument; but it is
believed that vast majority of them
know better. The population of the
United States is increasing and the
only way to provide, the growing num-
bers of people with food, raiment and
shelter is by the development of the
natural resources, the extern
sion of it's industries and the continu-
ing increase of its production
Conserve by Utilization.
A relatively small portion of the
profits of industry is wasted by the
rich on Injuries and extravagances;
but more than three quarters of all
net earnings are reinvested and the
profits thereon reinvested in such
way that the public gets the full bene-
fit to the last dollar.
Fortunately approximately all of the
profits so far made in this country
have been invested at home After
they begin to be invested abroad, the
people of other countries will get the
benefit of them. If Clifford Pinchots
