PROUD OF IT.

This issue of The Gem Worker is
credit to Boise. 1t is an excmpiih-
cation of just what the printers and
engravers' arts car be made to re-
produce on wh,t- paper with ink.
Boise is known as "the biggest little
city" in the United States and among
its people in every line OF endeavor
experts are to be found. So. in the
publishing of newspapers. Boise ex-
Ierts can and do produce the equal
from artistic and mechanical stand
points with any city in the country
The Gem Worker is deeply indebted
to Nick VilIeneuve for the mastery
drawing and lettering of tbs procla-
nation, the plate which appears as
page one of this issue. This drawing
was not the work of an idle moment
but it took hours of painstaking
thought to bring into existence. Also,
if examined closely, it will be seen that
it fully typifies everything that Boise
and its back country stands for in flu
ture development.
There is an old and true philosophi-
cal axiom which runs like there is
nothing new under the sun" and this
in all probability is true. OF course
the issuance of proclamation number
was by no means the original idea of
the editor of this paper, but any good
thing will stand repetition now and
then and The Gem Worker believed
that Boise business interests would
welcome just such splendid edition
as this one is.
1t was with this thought uppermost
in the mind of the -editor that this
issue makes is appearance and there
is nothing to blush for in its issuance.
Every signer of the proclamation is
either business or professional man
or woman of Boise or its adjacent
valley and each and every signer be-
lieves thoroughly in the future of this
section as does The Gem Worker.
OF necessity the edition is larger in
size to accommodate the most liberal
patronage bestowed. The Gem Work
er thanks the merchants who have
made possible this splendid edition.

GOOD TIMES HERE

The period Of hard times through
which the American nation has passed
is happily over. The business revival
so noticeable in the eastern centers
has at last struck Idaho with over
whelming force and the immediate fu-
ture is bright with roseate promise Of
prosperity. In the general awaken
ing, Boise is again coming into her
own. AS she had advanced more rap
idly than her neighbors, so the hard
times struck her the hardest. Many
equities have been entirely wiped out
Others have been preserved by self
denial and hard effort. But the COM
munity is on the upgrade once more.
Business men report phenomenal in
crease in trade nthe closing months
of 1916 as compared with the previous
twelve months and the outlook could
not be better.
The uncertain returns from orchards
have driven the farming community
to a more certain field of industry
with the result that. the dairy inter-
ests have greatly increased in the
past FIVE years, with the certainty that
it will grow and sdevolop until the
Boise valley becomes one of the fa-
nous dairy centers of the United
States.
The banks of Boise are overlooking
with money which will find its way
into the arteries of trade in the de-
velopment of new enterprises and the
expending of old industries. Our BUSH
ness men are all optimistic, the agri-
cultural population is on easy street,
employment for labor is increasing
and in wishing one and all prosper
GUS and happy new year. The Gem
Worker looks forward to a prosperity
in which all will share.

OUR MINING LAWS

An attempt is being made by the
big mining and smelling trusts of the
country to get control of all of the
mineral lands and they now have 4
bill before Congress for that purpose
One section of the bill would require
all mining claimants to prove up and
procure patents on their claims within
seven years from the time of locating.
This would entail upon the prospec-
tors an expense which nine out of ten
could not afford and force them to
relinquish and lose their claims. As
a matter of fact the government
should never issue patent to mineral
land so long as it contained mineral
in paying quantity for by so doing a
great many of the best mines might
not b, worked for years as we can see
to-day hundreds of good claims here
in Idaho which have been patented
years ago and still remain idle and
which are owned by wealthy men in
the east who are holding them in re-
serve in order to control the output
and in that way control the market.
II is this state of affairs that has in
jured the mining industry in this state
more than any other cause. Anoth-
er section of the proposed law would
allow claimants to deposit the SOD.
for assessment work in the u S. land
office in lieu of the development work
now required This would allow the
big corporations to locate large tracts
of mineral land without any develop
ment, 10 obtain patents for them AMI
in that way the smelling and mining
trust could control the whole mineral
output. Our present mining laws
have been in operation for more than
fifty years and are we'll understood BY
the prospector and mining men, and
almost every conceivable legal point
governing them has been settled by
the courts while new mining code
would mean years of litigation which
the prospector cohd III afford. The
whole proposed law is one OF the bold
est attempts yet made to rob the
country of its valuable mineral lands.
