;re 10th annual session of the
hnrtfican Mining Congress ysstcr-
day. Scientific authorities, COM
mercial exports and government
authorities combined to present the
best thoughts for the successful tu-
ture o. the mining industry to those
most interested in its development.
The congress closed with its an
nJal banquet last night after Walter

elected president. The time ana

Resolutions adopted in the fina:
session included one advocating I
rorc liberal administration of the
land laws and protesting against
federal leasing of mineral and Other
land. Another resolution urged the
elimination of politics from the
mine inspection service and advoc-
atcd = general revision of Ameri-
can mining laws.
Regret for the passing of the
p~rospector, one of the picturesque
phases of early mining history. was
expressed by Theodore F. Van Wag-
e of Ely, New, who declared
that despite the advancement If
scientific mining methods, develop
ment of new territory still was lar5e-
~ dependent on the activities of
he independent searchers for ores.
The prospector, ne said, was pure

history, who dld not exist outside
OF America and Alaska, and only
in those parts of America under the
provisions of the federal mimi"
laws. Decreasing production IN
Australia and some other countries,
