the worst is yet to come before sum-
mer makes its formal appearance on
the twenty second of June. Then
again, spring may be as balmy from
now on as any Italian spring.
Do not be discouraged. The frost
has left the ground in the agricultural
districts, the trees are leafing and the
grass is growing; Towering plants are
struggling against heavy and chill
ing handicap, but they are not dead.
A few days of sun will make the
whole world smile and a few more
days of the same will make everybody
forget all about the long wet spell.
There is no power on earth to
change the course of the weather;
there is only one thing for the people
to do and that is: Smile and say you
like it.

WAVING ExTRALATERAL RIGHTS

Waiver, by mutual consent, of apex
rights between contiguous mining pro-
perties is a sensible way of prevent
ing litigation. The four principal
companies operating in the Miami dis.
trict waived their extra lateral rights
in order to avoid trouble. 1t Is now
announced that the Detroit Copper
company and the Lazinskys have made
a similar arrangement in the Morenci
district. An earlier instance, which
proved an example worthy of imita-
ton, was the agreement between the
Copper Queen and the Calumet G. Ari-
IONA companies, in the Warren dis
trict. Mr.. James Douglas. speaking
for the Copper Queen, says of the
agreement: "In spite of our close con-
tiguity, and the many causes for fric-

alyzed the whole district under the
working of the apex law, we have not
only maintained friendly relations, but

ANOTHER RARE METAL.
Colorado Miner Believes He Has a
Rival Of Tunasten.

According to story in the Daily
Mining and Financial Record of Den
yer, Jesse Halter of Mancos, has at
last placed his group of mines which
Is situated between Mancos and Dol
ores, with the Midwest Oil company
of Colorado Springs. Several months
ago Jesse brought samples of the ore
up here and tried to interest Telluride
parties; the ore was thought to con-
tain a natural welding compound, and
in fact, was tried out here by several
blacksmiths who thought 1t was good.
The new company have made expert
mental tests and now conclude the
mineral can be used as a temperlng
for iron and steel and claim
1t to be as good as either tungsten or
vanadium.. The property will be open

WEARY OF EXPLANATIONS OF
LAND BOARD DEALS.

Governor Alexander explains that
the business of the state land board is
handled in the same manner that pre-
walls in the conduct of a well manag.
ed bank. In fact, he likens the board
to great banking institution through
which the money of the people is loan
ed to citizens of Idaho, secured by

The champion dividend payer among
the mining and metallurgical COM
panies is without any doubt the New
Jersey Zinc company, which has just
declared its regular quarterly divi-
dend of per cent on its capital stock
of $35,000,0O0 and an extra dividend
of per cent. This company makes
three commodities that have partici-
pated in the phenomenal rise of prices
during the last year, namely, spelter

uric acid.

first mortgages on land and after a
careful appraisement of It's value by
agents of the board The actions of
the board are governed by state laws
and regulations which have the effect
of laws, and the governor, who is the
chairman of this board or bank, as he
terms 1t, insists that all these laws
and regulations are strictly adhered to
In making loans, and that every safe
guard is exercised to protect the funds
of the people of the state. This frank
and lucid explanation of the work of
the board from Governor Alexander is
the taxpayers, and would be accepted
as the last word In the discussion of
a question that has absorbed the at
tention of the state for good many
years except for one thing. 1t does
not square with the practical work of
the board
About the time one irregular trans
action in which the public is shown
that the money of the state has been
loosely loaned, another one hobs up
which taxes all the ingenuity of the
governor to explain, along with the
assistance of those who profited by the
deal, and then after all is said, the
explanation as usual does not explain.
1t does, however, make one thing
clear, and that is that all the high
sounding talk of the governor in re-
gard to the conservative banking
methods Used by the board in making
loans is bunk" and that any private
bank that practiced such methods in
making loans would soon be bankrupt
The latest example of state board
banking is the Huston loans, Mr.. HUI
ston being state auditor and member
of the land board. In making loans
the board is limited to one-third the
actual value of the land, but in this
loan 1t was shown that the valuation
of the board was far above that plac-
ed by the assessor of Bonneville coun-
ty. No satisfactory explanation has
been given for the transaction, and
the fact that Mr.. Huston offered to
take the loan off the hands of the
state, and that his offer was prompt
ly accepted, only proves that the loan
was wholly unjustified and that the
board was fortunate in being able to
recover the money.
There should be no occasion for ex-
plantations in connection with the
transactions of the land board, and
there would not be If the laws and
regulations governing the body were
strictly observed. The business of
the state should be conducted upon
business principles and without sug-
gestion of favoritism to those who
chance to be clothed with official au-
thority. The people are weary of ex-
plantations which do not explain and
in which no explanation should be ne
cessary.

ton CT workers. Inc ooctor, there
fore, began a bombardment of the
mechanical engineers to devise
some method of grinding which
would reduce the disease. hazard of
the employees.
AS result of this agitation, one
of the mechanical engineers studied
the problem thoroughly and with
most satisfactory results. A pro-
cess of grinding has been installed
which eliminates the chance Of en-
ployees' lungs being filled with
stone and steel. Incidentally, the
cost of grinding has been reduced
so much that the price Of the ex-
pensive machine equipment Of this
large plant was returned to. the
owners in single year in reduced
manufacturing costs. AS a second
incident, the product has been re-
fined aud improved greatly, thus in
suring better satisfied customers.
Verify, virtue brought its own re-
ward in this instance-and speedily,
too. The owners only interest in
the beginning was to save life and
health. That their profits were in
creased is gratifying. Gradually
evidence is accommodating to prove
that erecting safeguards against in
dustrial accidents and disease is n. t
alone humane and just, but that it
is likewise good business"
