distinguished members of the Grand
Lodge.
The annual address of the grand
master was n of his greatest efforts
and vas a Masonic csallic of the high
est order. 1t not only indicated a
strong grasp of the writer upon pres
ent conditions but it held out a vision
of better things, all of them simple
and practical and all tending toward
a higher development of the enets OF

ton.
The grand master was anxious that
several sections of the laws be either
changed or made clearer to the aver
age student of Masonry. One desire
was that the process of moving mem.
bership from one lodge to another be
made easirer. In this the Grand
Lodge concurred. 1t vas also agreed
that the annual grand tax should be
increased to 40 cents per subordinate
member in order that the increased
expense of the Grand Lodge might
be met. In order to better safeguard
the financial interests of the body
Brother Joe E. HEREFORD urged that
the appointive office of grand audit
or be created and that Brother G. w.
X. Love be recommended for the place.
This was done and the old, hurried
work of an Indifferent auditing com
mittee was made a thing of the past.
Under this system the auditor was
empowered to begin work at the open
ing of the Grand Lodge and to make
a report before the close. He was
afterwards allowed to begin ever ear
lier than this and results showed that
the was a good one.
The Grand Lodge of Missouri has
been a long and patient sufferer from
lodges which persist in being delin-
quent in dues to the various depart
ments, not because they are unable
to pay but through sheer carelessness
and indifference upon the part of the
brethren. Hardly a year has passed
during which at least one-third of the
funds due has not remained unpaid.
In this way a great hardship has been
worked upon the various institutions
of the body and a grave injustice has
been forced upon those lodges which
set the example of promptness and
regularity in meeting their obligations.
This, too. is all the more noticeable
when it is borne in mind that the
men who make up the fraternity are
the most substantial and prosperous
of the roce. Grand Master Chinn
made a Verdun drive at these tardy
brethren and it was followed up with
perhaps less force by his successors,
but like the allies the delinQuents still
hold to their trenches wen to this
day and seem to are little for the ig'
nominy of their position.
During the session attention was
called to the fact that two members
of the Grand Lodge. Brothers M. o.
Ricketts, and S. G. Williams, had been
honored by the governor Of Missouri

MAY NAME MINIMUM
 WAGE FOR WORKERS

LONDON, Oct. 26.-Repiying to a deputatiOn today on the subject of the high price of food and the low wages paid shop keeping employees in the distributing trades, Walter Runciman, president of the board of trade, an- nounced that the government was con sidering the question of a minimum wage for all workers. He added that legislation might become necessary to deal with the sale of milk and that the subject of municipal shops being established for the supply of bacon and other foodstuffs also was being considered.
 Regarding the request that the gov ernment should take over the wheat supply, MT. Runciman pointed out the difficulties created by the fact that a large proportion of the grain comes from abroad.

HAS ONE FINSET
 PLANT
CFrom Chloride Herald)


 The Schuylkill is employing 25 men, principally in constructive and repair work. A concrete retaining wall is being built to safeguard the boiler room and blacksmith shop. New 12- inch airpipe is being installed in the shaft to supply the various branch lines throughout the mine. A new pressure-blower will provide an abun- dance of pure air to the miners and a modern electric light plant has been installed to assure them plenty of light.
 Superintendent Leete is a thorough believer that pure air and good light throughout a mine pay handsome re- turns in the increased efficiency of the men, and with that object in view he has installed a modern plant.
 The old workings are being cleaned out and retimbered. This work in- wolves a great deal of time, as care must be exercised in bad ground. Good progress is being made and the results are becoming manifest.

MUCH NEW EQUIP-
 MENT
(From Chloride Herald) Hidden Treasure Develop ment Work Pushed in Scientific as Well as Prac- tical Manner - Great Bodies of Ore Broken Daily.

A representative of the Herald wis tied the Hidden Treasure mine Tues day and found to his surprise that more actual work was being accom- plished on that property in the short space of time it has been operating than on any other piece of ground in the district. This is a broad state ment to make when it is taken into consideration that there are at least 15 properties in this district where de- velopment work is being pushed as fast as men and money can be brought to bear.
 When attention is first directed two new buildings near the mouth of the crosscut tunnel are observed, the one being the compressor and engine house and the other a commodious black smith and repair shop, and the new conner is greeted by lively tune from the exhaust of the gasoline pops sharply cutting the morning air.
 The company has recently put in operation a very efficient Fairbanks Morse engine and an Ingersoll-Rogler compressor, which supply power to Leyner drills. Two shifts are operat- ing in the crosscut with so much ef- ficiency that the management ex- presses a quasi-despair; this para doxical situation being due to lack of a sufficient number of muckers to re- move the broken ground. It is evil dent that very good work is being done, since the Herald man was ad- vised of the result of IS cars of rock having been broken from one round of holes during the preceding shift. This, he was told, was about an aver age yield of one shift. In comparison with ordinary mining methods these results are astonishing to old time miners, and predict for the Chloride Mining company a much earlier at tainment of their object-which is the cross-cutting of the Hidden Treasure vein system-than had been hoped for under the most favorable conditions probable.
 It is evident that a clean-cut and business-like program has been in stituted and the Herald offers it's best wishes to Prof. F. c. Smith and the company for the progressive manner it has undertaken the huge task of uncovering what is believed the big vein system of that section of the dis trict.

J.B.HUGHES SAYS CHLORIDE IS
 A LEADER
(From Chloride Heraldl

President John B. Hughes, of the Arizona Chloride Mining company, commenting on the eagerness with which large capital is reaching for properties in the Chloride district, said:
 q met one of the old-time Chlor- iders in Los Angeles the other day, and he seemed really distressing be- cause the camp was so fast becoming a big company camp. He complain ingly said that it was just impossible to find streak of ore that didn't open into something bigger, and he wound up by saying that 'surer than shoot in some rhigh-top boot feller' would come along and want it for some com pany and flash some real coin that an cid pro-pcc:o- Soaid hardly turn his back upon.
 "I really felt sorry for the fellow because his first payment for his re- gently sold property was going over the bar at lively rate.
 "The reports reaching me of the re- cent strike in the Schuylkill, coming as they do on top of so much other i'm portant developments in the district, makes me feel that I must visit this property again. Fourteen-ounce gold ore has been shipped from several oth- CT properties in the camp, but from a vein the size of the SchuylEill would mean another top-notcher.
 'The Windy Point vein has pro- duced ore worth better than $4OO per ton, and, in view of the fact that our big, low-grade lodges assay as much at or near the surface as the Schuyl- kill vein, the thought strikes me now, as it has many times in the past, that the occasional picture assays found in these big veins may indicate high grade ore at depth, and recent devel- opments on nearly every Chloride mine has shown just this condition to exist with depth"

MAKE INSPECTION VISIT
 TO RICH COPPER STRIKE
CFrom Thursdays Daily Miner ]

Frank Turner and O. F. Kuencer went out to the porphyry copper mines near Mineral Park yesterday to take look at the new find of copper, made by John F. Gross. Mir. Kuencer states that a short crosscut was made in the east side of the shaft and that a fine grade of copper ore was opened. The bottom of the shaft is in good ore and it is probable that the ore bearing area will be very large in that locality.

ALuGIlCdLs
 In 1866 the first mining act of con- gress declared that the mineral lands of the public domain should be free and open to exploration and occu- pancy. The act of 1872 repeated the same generous ovation.
 Since those dates, the whole region of the Rocky mountains and the Pa cifc slope has been prospected, it's mineral values opened up an dthou- sands of mines worked and patented.
 The whole extent of the public do- main was free ground to the prospec- tor and the timber also was allowed for all mining purposes.
 Such policy of the government was never abused, and but for such policy it might be roundly stated that the West never to this day would have been settled up and mining would have been merely trespass on government land.
 There is no act of congress repeal ing this universal incese to prospect and to use the timber, but indirectly these laws have been restricted so that the prospector starting with his out fit, is in constant fear even of arrest and imprisonment on some pretense of interfering with government property.
 Perhaps the first step in this busi- ness was the Forest Reserve act. Un- de rthat act an area of over 100000 square miles has been cut out of the prospector's ground. If the reserva- tions were confined to timber lands proper, no objection would be urged, but where many of these national for ests, so-called, are above timber line, where tree never grew and never will grow, and thousands of square miles are covered with brush, undergrowth and so-called timber of no value what ever except for frewood, it becomes a piece of irony to call it a national for est or a timber reserve.
 The act creating the reservation ex- fires, putting out fires, cutting fire wood, sale of timber for mines, quar- antine, water power, irrigation, bee hives, salting stock, miners cabins, and the protection of water sheds for the use of generations yet unborn. Some of these regulations are legiti- mate, though overburdened with op- pressive detail, but many of them ut terly unauthorized under the most lib- eral interpretation of the forestry law.
 Coming to the enforcement of these regulations: There is an army of so- called forest rangers in the pay of the government, rewards to common informers, permits, licenses, bonds, re- ports schedules and an attempt to make an income out of the free tim Der, the property of the miners.
 Where a timber cutting permit is issued a bond must be given and the amount is fixed in three different sums, classified as '1ittle danger" :" considerable danger" and "great dan ger" from fires, which impracticable and impossible theory leaves, of course, the amount of the bond to be fixed at whatever sum the official may choose to name. (Use book, page 131.)
 The herding regulations refer to all kinds of cattle, sheep, dry sheep, horses and goats, with subdivisions in telligible only to stockmen, utterly un- inteligible to the forest ranger, diff fc,,l+ of understanding even tn an ev-

DECENTRALIZATION OF
 THE NATIONAL FORESTS

perienced lawyer and, when it comes to the rule that flor purposes of ad- ministration two head of swine will be considered equal to one cow," we doubt whether the stOckman, the forest ran ger, the experienced lawyer, or even the head of the department itself un- derstands what is meant or upon what basis two hogs are the equivalent of one COW.
 A rule on page 22 reads: 'If you find fire, try and put it out. If you can't, get word of it to the nearest United States forest ranger or state fire warden at once. Keep in touch with the rangers" It does not state how this word is to be got to the for est rangers, whether by telephone, mail or messenger. If by mail, prob ably the fire would be out before the forest ranger would be reached; if by telephone, the informant might be ar rested for using a telephone that did not have a forest reserve license; in either case, he is liable to be arrestd for starting the fire, and the charge to keep in touch with the rangers is the very last advice that a man should heed if he would keep out of trouble.
 The most serious item is that the United States supreme court has held that these regulations are the same as acts of congress and can be en- forced by indictment, fine and impris- onment. U. S. vs. Grimaud, 220 U. S., 5O6.
 The congressional act allows free timber for mining purposes. Con- struing the act, the regulations say: "It is restricted largely to dead, in- sect-infected or diseased timber, thin nings and inferior species. Use of such materials is granted free to bona fide settlers, miners, residents and pros pectors." Owners of producing mines which are clearly beyond the prospecting stage are required to pur- chase"
 These regulations kill the act. They are an absolute denial of the timber right. It is not to sarcastic to say that these rules allow free use of tim Der only fit for frewood and deny any kind of useful timber to a working mine. There is no authority whatever to deny propert timber or to restrict the use to deadwood and trash. Miners cannot use brushwood and willow sap lings to brace a drift or timber a shaft, and while the decision referred to gives the regulations the force of law, it does not allow regulations to be enforced which are in absolute def- ance of the controlling act.
 The original policy was to encour- age the development of the public min eral domain and the government and the miner were in accord. Today, as administered by the department, the miner and the forest offiscials deal at  arms length and the acts of the gov ernment are oppressive, inquisitorial, and as hostile to the development of the mining industry as ever charged to a despotic government like Russia or like China, which sent an army to de- stroy the placer diggings on the Amur river.
 We have presented the facts and it is for the parties injured to say wheth- CT they are too proud to fight and will yield submissively to a wrong fully as great as that done by men who wantonly destroy the forest growth.
