Human Judgment cannot be fnfalli-
bic, no matter how broad the mind or
keen the intellect. Appearances are
so deceptive that even the most expe-
rienced judge of character may fail to
reach as good an estimate OF a man as
the humble ignorant scrub woman,
who cleans out his offices daily. Many
successful men realize this great lack
In themselves, and appreciate the
power that is in the hands OF n de-
voted wife and real helpmate. They
would not think of entering into a
partnership or n big business deal
without first arranging to hear the
opinion formed by her whom they have
learned 10 look up To and confide In.
And. indeed. II man can scarcely pay
higher tribute to woman than the
rust he shows in her instinct.

PRESIDENT MISLEADING
PEOPLE NEW CLAIMS
Senator From Indiana Calls the
League of Nations "One-
Sided Arrangement"

Washington, Sept. 29.-In assert
ing that the British empire could not
out-vote the United States in the lea
que Of nations under the covenant as
now drawn. President Wilson, either
through misunderstanding or mis-.
representation" is misleading" the
American people, Senator New. Re-
publican, of Indiana, declared in an
address in the senate.
Launching a general attack on the
league as a "one-sided" arrangement
under which this country would be
other nations without needing reci-
procal service from them, Senator
New at the same time criticised many
details of the covenant and dwelt at
length on the question OF the relative
vote of Great Britain and this coun-
try in the league assembly.
Details are the essence of such an
important matter as this, the senator
said, yet the President has called
upon the senate to forget the de-
tails" The President, he said. would
substitute this phrase for the slogan
of safety first" What would hap
pen on a railroad, the senator asked
if it replaced its safety first" signs
with an injunction to it's employees to
forget the details?"
Warning against interference in
European affairs, the Indiana senator
declared entrance Of the United Stat
es into the league of nations would
mean pursuance of the course which
has brought the country to the point
today where it has not Single
friend among the nations" And this
course, he said. has been followed
in utter disregard of the caution and
advice of the fathers of the nation. -
"One of the simplest elements of
common sense" said the senator in
| conclusion, "is the minding of ones
own business and the keeping out of
other peoples business. This treaty
with its league attachment provides
for the systematic interference of the
United States in the affairs of every
other nation"

The nearest approach, literally, to
mountain Of gold' is Mount Nor
gan, In Australia And they are min
Ing today there as they have for thir-
ty years. The net proceeds have been
about $38,0OO,0O0. This so-called
mountain of gold" has yielded, on an
average, half an ounce or less OF gold
TO the ton
This has led many persons to ask
seriously. What would happen il a
mountain Of pure gold were found?"
For ages men have dreamed and
writer's have written yarns about
mountains of gold" but Just what
would happen if one were found is
still a question with as many sides
as quartz nugget of the precious
yellow stuff.
That II would lessen the value of
the gold standard goes without say
ing, and yet some other rare metal
or substance would undoubtedly be
found ready enough to take it's place
in coinage If this should happen. Con-
corning this interesting question
mining experts have talked most in
terestingly. Those Of us they say who
are familiar with gold mining and
more especially the big bananas Of
the world, need not strain our i'm
aginations to conceive of an ore body
or even mass OF gold big enough to
upset international monetary stand
ards. Many prospector frying his
bacon at a campfire and stimulated
by reconcentrated cup of coffee
must have seen visions of a golden
mountain or a streak of pure gold
that ran across creation as if it would
never stop. Every now and then we
hear of fabulous mineral discoveries.
like that of Bitter Creek, in June,
1910, and when the irresponsible
scribe OF the Daily Scream has en-
hausted his vocabulary he usually
ends by talking about a mountain
of gold"
When the stampede to the Austria
lian diggins was at its height in
1852, the ignorant emigrants. having
heard that gold was found in quartz
and not knowing that pervasic min
eral, supposed 1t was quarts" and
here expected to gather the gold in
piDts and pals. This fact is vouched
for by F. j. Dunn. the Australian
geologist who as a boy went to the
diggings at that time.
And why not? We may laugh at
the simpleton from the farm and we
may sneer (and we do) at the per.
ferved scribblar of the untechnical
paper, but it is doubtful whether
even that peripatetic philosopher
known as the man in the street could
give adequate reasons for the inn
probability of such golden discov-
cry.
For instance, what is the biggest
mass of native copper ever found? OF
course, 1t was in the Lake Superior
region. 1t was 1857, at the Nine

sofa (not Minnesota) mine, in the
Ontonagon district. At a shallow
depth there was discovered a mass of
copper 46 feet long, with,a maximum
thickness of 8 1-2 feet. The mean
width was IL 1-2 feet, and the mean
thickness four feet. The total weight
actually recovered was 420 tons.
No such masses of gold as this, of
course, have ever come to light. Yet
gold in great quantities has been won
in brief periods. California river beds

yielded $S1, 1,294,70O in 1851 alone,
and the shallow diggings Of Victoria
gave s63, 100000 in 1858. In the
Klondyke more recently one miner
cleaned up $4,000 in eight hours
and took out s75O,OOO from claim

Much of this gold was in course
pellets and nodules, and yet the larg-
est nugget ever found was picked up
near Dunolly, Victoria. Australia, in
1869, and weighed 100 pounds. An
other weighing 1S4 pounds and in
Guiding some quartz brought in near
.ly S42, 900. There have been others
nearly as big, yet this is very far from
masses such as the huge copper mug
get above described, and farther still
form a quarry or mountains" of
gold. The nearest approach to this,
as yet imaginary possibility seems to
be Mount Morgan, in Queensland
Australia, hill about 500 feet high.

containing several ounces of gold per
ton.
This has been eXcavated in success
full benches, so that it approximates
the "quarries' of gold mentioned
by certain writer's. But the workings
are now far below the foot of the hill.
However. they have yielded a Quanti
ty of gold so great as to render Mount
Morgan unique in the history of min.
ing. Since its discovery in 1886, ac
cording TO the latest figures available
this ore deposit has yielded in excess
of 3,6S0.O0O ounces of gold worth
$73, 900, 900 besides ,33. 900 tons OF
copper. The company owning the
mine has distributed more than $37.
