ed for American producers against
cheap labor products of other coun-
tries. Since the Underwood tariff Is
held up as an exemplar of successful
revenue raising through a tariff, 1t is
evident that the people need not ex-
pect any relief from war taxes or d.
rect taxes by an increase in tariff
duties. The foreigner is not only let
off without a tax but is given full ac-
cess to the best market in the world
without requiring from him any equiv
alent. He can dump into the United
States all the goods he produces, at
any price he pleases, and the Ameri-
can worker and producer has no pro-
lection. What will become of Am
erican wages and the American stand
ard of living under such plan when
Europe's soldiers turn to production?
No Preparedness for the Worker.
The plain warning of the war in
Europe is lost upon the democratic
party. so far as the tariff is concerned,
preparedness" is not for the working
man. He is to have no protection. If
he can not work as cheaply as the
foreigner and produce goods as cheap
ly, he can quit. II the American man.
ufacturer can not turn out goods as
cheaply as the foreigner he can shut
up shop. Industrial preparedness
evidently means nothing to the demo-
cratic party. Its platform shows that
II has learned nothing from the up
heaval in Europe.

LEAD ORE AND SHIPPING
CARLOAD A DAY.
(Mackay Miner.)

Mackay, the copper city of Idaho,
has been living up to the name for
years and is this year producing more
copper than ever before, but this is not
to be the only metal produced In this
section and shipped from this city.
Lead in abundance has been develop
ed In the A. w. Kennedy claims In
Lucky gulch, and car load of fifty
tons is leaving the property each and
every day; and is hauled by freight
teams to the railroad at Mackay, a
distance of four miles.
Makes Rich Strike.
That opportunities to make a for
tune are often overlooked in the min
ing industry is evidenced by the dis
covery made by Pat Keenan, OF q
large deposit of lead carbonate ore
a few miles from Mackay that has
been walked over by mining men for
the past 80 years. The property on
which this discovery was made by Mr.
keenan, belongs to a Mr.. w. A. Ken
nedy. from whom Mr.. Keenan, secured
an IS months lease. Very little work
by Mr.. Keenan, found the ore body
from which he Is shipping about a
carload a day with profits Of from
$3.50 to $1,000 net and with several
hundred thousand dollars net addition
al in sight. Keenan, is not all swelled
up, however, by his good fortune but
remains the same modest, unassumine
man he was when he was working fol-
days pay in the mines.
Other Promising Properties.
Surrounding the ground from which
this ore is produced are many Other
claims on the same contact and with
work the same ore will no doubt be-
encountered. The recent development
of ore on the big working tunnel oil
the Empire mine, which has proven
the ore of the section attains depth
is also a big spur to the expenditure
of money on the development of other
ground.
With the prospecting and develop.
ment work that Is being carried on in
this section this summer Mackay il
experiencing a real mining boom and
gradually the camp is proving itself
to be one of the most worthy fields
for investment that can be found in
any portion of the United States and
more money and more men are COM
ing to Mackay and Custer county this
summer than ever before and more
fortunes are being made.

ut is often true" said the prospec-
tor to his burro, that 1t Is the giving
of careful attention to little things
that leads to ultimate success in
mining operations as well as in other
pursuits and occupations. OF course,
you may not be able to grasp my
meaning, for your intellect, like q
cash vein, leads to nowhere, although
there are some veins of this character
that will produce more ore than others
before becoming exhausted, just as
you really seem to know more and can
think a little more than the general
run of your species; but, / have never
known you to pay any attention to
little everyday occurrences which, IL
observed, might make you happier and
give your owner more complete salts

The democratic platform makes thi,
declaration regarding the tariff:
I'VE affirm our belief in the doctrin,
of tariff for the purpose of providing
sufficient revenue for the operation OF
the government economically admins.
tered, and unreservedly indorse the
Underwood tariff law as truly exempli-
flying that doctrine"
But the Underwood tariff has NOT
provided sufficient revenue for the op-
Grafton of the government. Does the
platform mean to infer, therefore, that
the government has not been econom.
ically administered?
The people do not object to the wise
expenditure OF money for the opera :
tion of the government even IL this
expenditure is large. There Is little
complaint of extravaganza. except in
connection with unwise policies. such
as the proposal to establish govern
ment factories for manufacturing ar
NOR plate, nitrates, fertilizer, etc. The
usual expenditures of the government
are not criticized as excessive, and all
reasonable men concede that these ex-
renditures must increase.
Weakness of Tariff Plank.
The weakness Of the democratic DO
sition on the tariff lies in the fact that
its law is not successful either as a
measure of industrial preparedness or
as revenue producer.
The tariff plank goes on to say that
I'VE recognize that tariff rates are nee
essarily subject to change to meet
changing conditions of the worlds pro-
lection and trade" and 1t is admitted
that the changes brought about by the
war are yet conjectural and wait to
be disclosed"
The platform, however, makes no
provision for meeting these changes
beyond approving a plan for a non
partisan tariff commission to gather
facts. The party sticks TO the old
doctrine" of a tariff for revenue only.
There is not one word OF hope for
american industry in the platform.
Not single assurance is given that

In as hungry looking rock as could
well be found anywhere. Then l ex-
lamined all sides of the shaft up to
the point where the ore shoot had been
lost, taking into account every little
seam, every little discoloration of the
rock, and every slight change in the
formation. Finally, about six feet be-
low the point where the ore had dis
appeared / found what appeared to me
to be slight horizontal break through
which there was a vertical assure OF
hardly more than than a hairs
breadth In size. The fault plane and
the assuring were SO indistinct that
not one In thousand would notice
them: but was looking for little
things and, when | started drift on
the fault and had followed the tiny
stringer for a distance of only ten
feet, broke into one OF the richest
bodies of gold ore that had ever been
discovered in that locality. OF course
we all three felt mighty well pleased
with results, and my partners decided
me a third interest In the mine al
once: but. we had to be exceedingly
careful that the news of the strike
did not leak out, for we owned only
a small fraction of ground which the
roughnecks of the district might try
to take away from us II our discovery
were to become known too premature
ly: and them also, we desired to buy
adjoining ground and we knew that
If we began shipping high grade ore
that knowledge of our find would
soon become generally known. And SC
we used to take out little rich stuff
at time and one of us at night
would pack it on his back to the near
est town, fifteen miles away, where
1t would be disposed of easily and
quietly, for the rock was very rich,
often being worth from $50 to 800 per
pound. In this way we secretly ac-
cumulated quite a little sum, suffi-
cient to keep on with development
work. to perfect title to our fraction,
and to acquire additional ground sur
rounding our mine until we were able
to boast of quite an extensive domain,
Amounting to more than 800 acres.
Then we incorporated a company
which, since then and up to date, for
the mine is still great shipper, has
produced more than 100000 in gold
and has paid more than $15,0OO.0 900 in
dividends.
