Mine Bureau Of Arizona Ready
 for Safety Work

Industrial accidents cost this cOun- try 95,OO0 human lives and more than $500, 900, ,000 annually. In addition, dismemberments and other serlous ln- juries total about S50,000 yearly, while the annual number of minor accidents. causing loss of time, exceeds 100000. This does not include very large num- Der of cases of occupational diseases in which workers are wholly or partial ly incapacitated, or which result in premature death.
 It is a generally conceded fact that safety is essential to efficiency Rear izing the above statements, the Arizo- na State Bureau of Mines established a Safety Department with an engineer in charge. The object of the depart ment is the same as that of the bureau and that is SERVICE-to perform any service which the mining industry of the state operators. miners or prospec- tors may require, and which is within the limit of possibilities of the funds available
 It is anticipated that the department will be able to organize for safety each and every industrial organization in the state, the object being THE CON STARVATION OF HUMAN LIFE. Bul- letins on Safety will be issued from time to time and their object will be to answer any question which might arise rega rdino safety and efficiency Bulletins will be issued pertaining to Safety Engineering, Safeguarding, Rules & Regulations for Mines, Meth ods of Stimulating Interest in Safety, Safety and Efficiency in Mines, Etc.
 Sanitation in mining villages and cit ies is another phase of the work which will be taken up. Upon proper sani- tary conditions, in the plant, mine aud home depend the health and efficiency of employees. A very large proportion
Bisbee daily review., 1917-09-30

of the laboring class is utterly ignor- ant of the principles of personal hy- giene.
 Methods of educating the worKmen are being prepared, and as soon as time permits, special instruction in sanitation will be given to all con cerned
 In connection with Safety and Sani tation, Welfare work will form part of the program. This latter work is of great importance from the socialog- cal and educational points of view. The result is that the workers become more efficient and far better satisfied with their lot. In hours of leisure the workers are taught how Co find time and opportunity for education, recrea- his welfare work are directly reflected in the quality and quantity of the work performed and in the loyalty and faith fitness of the employees. Bulletins on Welfare work will be issued as part of the work of this department.
 Each year the engineer of the de pertinent will make trips to the diff ferent towns and cities in the state, spending considerable time in each place. During the day and in the ev- ening illustrated lectures. accompa- nied by motion pictures. will be giv- en on safety, sanitation, welfare, first aid for men, women, boys and girls, mine rescue, etc. While in the city he will also assist in any way pos sible in stimulating interest in any of the above subjects.
 Mining concerns who are not able to employ safety, first aid and mine rescue men will find that by applying to the department their wants can be filled. The department is capable oi training men in first aid and mine rescue, as it has at it's command a man previously employed by the L. s. bureau of mines. who has had con siderable experience in giving train ing of this kind, fighting mine fires, etc
 The department publishes a bulle- tin on Safety News" each month. It is published in the interest of safe ty and welfare work in the mines of the state.
 A bulletin on first aid for miners has been published and later one for the household will be published. The language used in the bulletins is oi the simplest form-they are void oi all technical terms, the object in writ ing them being to issue something covering the work completely and in the most simple form.

SILVER PRICE WAS HIGHEST
 EARLY IN 1890
Should Coined Silver Dollars In United States Be Releas- ed the Price of White Metal Would Be Shot Down.

The high price of silver in a gen eration was made in 1890, when Lon don price went to 54 5-S pence an ounce, for which New York equiva- lent would be S1.2O, according to gov erning conditions of that time
 Should the 35O, ,O00,O0O ounces of silver represented by minted dollars held in the United States treasury against outstanding silver certificates be sold, it would be an important fac tor in the market and, it is believed, would put a stop to further increases in price of silver. Some believe the price would suffer materially if that hoard were released.
 The coinage demand is coming mostly from India. In 1916 alone 116,000,000 ounces were absorbed by that country and demand has not abated since then. In the same year Great Britain coined S4O,O0O, 900 worth of silver and France minted 20, 100000 ounces, against 11,50O, 900 ounces the previous year. Large quantities of silver were coined in Russia, Germany and the other belli- gerent countries.
 Where did the supply come from The Indian bazaars are and have been naturally bearish on silver. Interior selling, therefore, reversed the natur- al trend of silver imports into India for private consumption. In 1916 eX- ports exceeded imports by 2,359,5 ounces. while balance of imports over exports had been 45,576,SS6 ounces in 1915 and 56,494,O77 ounces in 1914. These import and export statistics do not include government demand, which showed importation of 74.746,- 600 ounces in 1916, against a usual nominal export surplus.
 Magnitude of India's silver statis- tics becomes apparent when worlds production figures are considered which were 177,40O,OOO ounces in 1916, 193, 300, ,OOO in 1915, 21S ,5OO, 900 in 1914, 224, ,55O,OOO in 1913, 224.3OO,0OO in 1912 and 226200.000 in 1911, when the rec ord yield was made. The decline ex- plains itself. Mexico shows a loss

of 50 per cent in production, to about 40,G00,00O ounces, while all other countries including Canada also showed small recessions. United States was the only country to show a steady gain in the last six years.
 Just as India was bearish on silver and sold, so did the rest of Asia. China poured out about S0,000,000 ounces in 1916, of which roughly D per cent same from interior, 4S,0O0,- 900 ounces went to India and a large part found its way to Russia. It had so oversold itself that Shanghai was glad to take 7,5O0,O00 Philippine pesos last November and an equal amount of pesos had been taken by India earlier in the year. Such un- usual coin as Maria Theresa dollars and Mexican and South American coin came out of hiding and sold in the Far East for bullion.

opposition to this drawback prop
ositiOu. Let me show you the eVo-
luton Of the arguments dvanc
by the refiners in order to nam
tain this Ubiquitous provision
through which they manipulated
the world market.
When the proposition was called
to the attention of the Finance
Committee and the advance guard
of the refining combine appeared
in Washington they took the posi-
ton that if this drawback was sus-
pended the r%efiners would move
their refineries to Cuba; that they
were not gong TO feIlne sugar III
this country if they did not have
the benefit of the drawback; they
were going to Cuba. They advanc-
ed that argument. Nobody belieF-
ed they were going to do that.
They have millions and millions
of dollars invested in these refin-
cries. They are located here.
Their force is organized. They do
not know how much longer this
war will last. Nobody believed that
they were going to Cuba. They
knew if they refined their sugar
in Cuba that in transporting
it to the United States the quality
of that sugar would be affected by
the humidity on board ship. So.
when this was presented to the
committee and the committee be-
came convinced that they were
not going over to Cuba, they came
back with a declaration that all
the sugar now being sold refined
in the United States would be re-
fined in England. The committee
became worried to find out wheth-
er that would happen.

The Republican Hubbub.

In the midst of the hubbub in the re-

Chicago last summer; and they are still
strong. None is carrying weight for
age, unless Mr.. Root still persists in con-
sidering himself an old man. The
others, without a doubt, are young
enough for the presidency. So their
friends think of bringing them forward
againf
Mr.. Hughes won easily. He seemed
to be the ideal man to make the race.
He had been identified with no faction.
he had made good record when in
politics. Later, he had made good
record on the bench. He was in the
prime of both his intellectual and his
physical powers. He will be a young
man, politically considered, three years
hence.
And there is Mr.. Roosevelt. Wide
belief exists that in spite of the
third term handicap he still has 'opes.
He is still young-wiH remain young
even should he reach eighty. Has any of
the present racket any relation to him
Mr.. Perkins is in the thick of it; and
he is at all times and under all circum-
stances a Roosevelt man. Should Mr..
Roosevelt return to the White House
there will be something in it" for Mr..
Perkins-probably the secretaryship of
the Treasury.
But why at this early day "start" any
thing on this scoref Before 1920 comes
1918; and the less wrangling before the
latter date the better will be the chance
for carrying the congressional elections
then.
The candidate in 1920 must fit the
conditions and the issues Of that year

record is good he may ask for third

the government economically admins
tered, and unreservedly indorse the Un-
derwood law as truly exemphfying that
doctrine"
While tho democratic majority in the
present Congress was not elected on that
platform, will this declaration be recog-
nized as sound party doctrine, and what
is done now be fashioned on it,
There are two points for debate here
which the republicans may use. One
relates to the Underwood law, which
made for deficit before the war broke
out. If that exemplifes tariff for
revenue only, tariff for protection is
the natural and proper corrective. For
such tariff has always, in addition to
favoring American industries, provided
the government with money enough to
insure it comfortable support.
While about the business now, the ma
jority should be instructed by the dis
closures Of the recent past. Protection
does not cause high cost Of living. A
tariff for revenue only does not pro-
duce revenue enough for the support Of
the government, literally administered.
Enough revenue should be raised to keep
the government on Easy street, and be
levied so as to keep American capital
and labor on that same street. Revenue
legislation otherwise shaped would be a
mistake, and would complicate the mis-
take already made.
