MINES SHOWING
IMPROVEMENT IN
THE SOUTHWEST

Mining is rapidly reviving in
Alaska, notwithstand-
ing the shortage of mine labor and
high cost of production, says the
Juneau Dispatch.
In the Copper River district the
Kennecott corporation has shipped
in about 200 men during the past
80 days in preparation for drawing
the Mother Lode ore by way of the
Bonanza mine, a working tunnel
having been driven during the past
year from the main level in the
Bonanza mine. This ore is shipped
via the Copper River & Northwest
ern railroad to Cordova and re-
shipped via steamer to the Tacoma
smelter. 1t is believed the corpora
ton will be shipping ore regularly
within the next 80 days.
The Alaska corporation is another
company doing considerable devel-
opment work, as we'll as milling a
good grade of free milling gold
quartz in that section. Also the
North Midas Copper company has
started work on a promising gold
quartz property about II miles
from Strelna on the railroad. Ole
j. Berg is IN charge of this prop
erty.
Across from Ellamar both the
Fidalgo Mining company and the
Alaska Mines corporation are work
ing. These properties are golc
quartz. At Ellamar, Manager L. R
Middlecamp is working a small
force. This property was unable
to ship during the past year on &C
count of lack of transportation X

PUBLIC LEGAL
AID IS SUCCESS
IN SAN DIEGO

SAN DIEGO, Calm a report
made by P. A. Whitacre, recently
appointed by the San Diego Bar as
ISOLATION as public legal aid, the
attorney shows that during the two
months the office has been in exist
ence he has received more than 125
calls for advice.
The office of public defender was
established to conform to the pro-
visions of a legacy left by Lieuten-
ant Dewitt C. Mitchell, who died
while in the military service of the
United States. Lieutenant Mitchell,
before entering the service, was an
attorney in this city. Control of
the legacy and disbursement of the
funds thereby provided was left to
the San Diego Bar association.
Few of the cases submitted to
the public defender have been car
ried to the courts, an amicable set
Element having been arranged wher-
ever possible.
Persons applying for relief or
defense who are found to be attempt
ing to usurp privileges to which
they are not entitled are sent else
where. The public defender has had
little of this to contend with, how
ever, according to his report, "and
no trepidation need be felt by the
worthy applicant.
The trust stipulates that:
"All persons who shall apply to
said public attorney for his aid and
assistance and who shall appear to
him to be in need of an attorney
shall be benefciaries of this trust,
and said public attorney shall prose-
cute or defend their legal rights
or give them legal aid or defence
as the case may be, providing, how
ever, that said public attorney shall
not engage in prosecuting or de-
Tending matters of a criminal ma
ture nor in the conduct of divorces
or annulment suits, but shall con-
fine his services to matters of a
civil nature"
Requests for relief are varied and
Many former soldiers and sailors
have called for aid.
The trust was not established pri-
marily as a charity. The only
icharges, however, are for filing and
lother costs A stipulation in the
terms of the foundation shows that
it was planned to "help him who
helps himself The will says:
81 hereby subscribe to the view
that persons who have saved a little
money or other property, and who
are in danger of losing it, are more
worthy of help to preserve what
they have laid by, than persons who
have not had the foresight or self
control to lay by savings"

A BUDGET SYSTEM.

Uncle Sam has for the past few
years been exhorting everyone to
practice thrift, but has been guilty
himself of the widest extravaganza.
With wonderful patriotism the peo-
pie have responded to appeals to put
their pennies into thrift stamps and
their dollars into Liberty Bonds, but
at the same time the Government
itself has been guilty of the preatest
looseness and extravaganza in the
expenditure of billions. The people
have been lenient because of the
overshadowing necessity to win the
war, but the time for leniency is
now past, declares the editor Of
Leslie's Weekly.
During the war it frequently hap
pened that the Government made
forecasts of the money that would
be needed, and these forecasts prov
ed later to be billions of dollars
out of the way. The public will
no longer stand for such lack Of
method in Government finance. With
a war debt of twenty-five billions
and burden of taxation such as
we have never had before, the peo-
pie will demand that the Govern
ment shall have a plan in making
all appropriations and in providing
the necessary revenue. This means
the adopting of a budget system by
which the Government will look
ahead just as an individual or or
ganization does, planning expendi-
lures to come within income and
seeking source of revenue to meet
necessary expenditures.
The budget is not party mea-
sure. Mr.. Taft, when President,
labored to secure its adoption, but
was unable to overcome the oppo-
sition of the spoilsmen of both par
ties. In the last presidential cleo
ton both of the leading parties de-
clared in their platforms for bulge
tary reform. In the last Congress
each branch passed a bill calling
for the appointment of commits
sion TO report a plan for a budget
system, but neither bill was adopted
by both houses. Measures provid-
ing for a bureau of the budget and
for an accounting department are
before the present Congress.
Certain essential features in budg.
etary reform are pointed out by
Chairman John T. Pratt of the Ma
tional Budget committee. Upon the
President must be placed the re
sponsibility to furnish a complete
work plan of the administration
with estimates of revenue and ex
penditures to carry it out. Upor
Congress must be placed the re
sponsibility of considering all an
nual revenue and appropriation bill:
at the same time, and of enforcing
system of audits and report
which will enable Congress intelli
gently to supervise the work of thu
administration. At present the Gov
eminent operates through ten de
partments and Congress through 49,
committees, 20 of which have power
to originate appropriation bills
These departments and committee
may all be jealous of their pre-
negatives, but the taxpayers wh'
have to pay the price of lack O.
unity and oversight and system de
mand the adoption of nationa
budget.

CHAPTER XII.

Young George paid his respects to
his grandfather the following morning,
having been occupied with various at
fairs and engagements on Sunday un-
til after the Majors bedtime; and top
les concerned with building or exca-
vations were not introduced into the
conversation, which was Z cheerful
one until George lightly mentioned
some new plans Of his. He spoke of
his desire TO extend his proficiency in
driving: In fact, he entertained the
ambition to drive four-in-hand. How
ever, as the Major said nothing. and
merely sat still, looking surprised,
George went on to say that he did not
propose to ''go in for coaching just
at the START" he thought 1t would be
better to begin with tandem. He
was sure Pendennis could be trained
TO work as leader; and all that one
needed to buy at present. he said,
would be comparatively inexpensive

theirs house. Lights were burning over
there, upstairs; probably his newly
arrived uncle was engaged in talk with
the Major.
Georges glance lowered, resting cas-
ually upon the indistinct ground, and
he beheld some vague shapes, unfa-
miliar to him. Formless heaps, they
seemed; but, without much curiosity,
he supposed that sewer connections or
water pipes might be out of order,
making necessary some excavations.
Not greatly disturbed, he pulled down
The shade, yawned, and began to I'M
dress, leaving further investigation for
the morning.
But In the morning he had forgotten
all about 1t, and raised his shade, to
let in the light, without even glancing
toward the ground. Not until he had
from his window, and then his glance
was casual. The next instant his at
titude became electric, and he ran
from his room, plunged down the
stairs, out of the front door, and, upon
a nearer view of the destroyed lawn,
began to release profanity upon the
breezeless summer air, which remained
unaffected. Between his mothers
house and his grandfather's, excava-
tons for the cellars of five new
houses were in process, each within a
few feet of it's neighbor.
1t was Sunday, and so the workmen
implicated in these defacings were de-
MED what unquestionably they would
have considered a treat; but as the
fanatic orator continued the mono
logue, gentleman in flannels emerged
upward from one of the excavations.
