William Jennings Bryan is a reai
martyr. Three times he has sacrifc-
ed himself on the altar of his party.
and again he is ready to obey the
call to become the democratic stand =
ard bearer in the same spirit that
prompts the soldier to offer his life
on the field of battle" Thus does
vaulting ambition seek to camou-
flage its real design. Having landed
the democratic nomination for him
self three times and for Woodrow
Wilson once, it is more than probable
that the San Francisco convention
will fail for this martyr stun and
again follow the peerless leader to .
disaster.

AND THEIR WIVES
lJoplin Glohel

Joplin GlObe)
Vincente Blasco Ibanez, famou.
Spanish author, and student of hui
man nature, declares, after visit tC
the United States, that American
husbands are making a big mistake
by being too gentle with their wives
The American woman, he says, is
surfeited with all the respect and
adulation bestowed on her and is Ian
gushing for a little rough treatment

This may at first strike you as be-
ing contrary to the theories of En-
rico Caruso. who gave his wife a
$4,000 diamond necklace in celebra-
tion of his birthday. but it isn't, ne
.cessarly. Ibanez doesn't advise
against giving your wife diamond
necklaces. Not at all If he said any
thing about it he probably would say
TO go ahead with the Caruso act as
often as convenient, but at the same
time not to forget the rough stuff A
mixed diet is usually best
1t is significant, however, that Mr.
Ibanez gave out his splendid advice
in an informal way at one of the
mems clubs in New York. At the
time he spoke there wasn't woman
within speaking distance, and the
chances are he talked in a loud firm
tone and with emphatic gestures. In /

With a fine club building at Kellogg
which provides wholesome and
health giving recreation for young
and old, and with another one soon
to be erected at Mullan, what is
Wallace going to do in this respect?
For many years the necessity for such
an institution has been recognized,
and much talk has been INDUCED in
regarding its establishment. The
time has arrived now when talk must
be followed by action, or abandon the
project altogether

The jury's verdict in the Monte
sano l. w w trial is a distinct dis
appointment to all who hoped for alb
solute justice to be meted out to the
perpetrators of the most heinous of
crimes. The men who fired the shots
at the ex-service men in Centralia
are doubly guilty, for their purpose
was both to commit murder and to
attack the government whose uni
form their victims wore. The verdict
serves to paIliate the action of the
mob in hanging one Of the accused.

If soldiers of the world war are en-
titled to a bonus of $50 per month for
every month they served, why are
not the veterans of the civil war, the
Spanish-American war, the various
Indian wars, and the few remaining
veterans of the Mexican war entitled
to the same generous consideration
from congress? Was not their service
equally patriotic? Did they not en-
dure equal hardships? Were they
not exposed to more dangers from
disease? Did they not show equal
cash and bravery in the presence Of
the enemy? Did they not lose bust
ness opportunity while in the military
service of their country? Why ex-
clude these veterans with records Of
honorable service from the benefits of
this proposed raid upon the national
treasury?

state. the forest bureau seems to
have adopted a system in disposing
Of timber on the reserves that is de-
signed to further deprive Idaho of the
benefits Of this splendid resource and
to the advantage Of neighboring
states An astounding example Of
this Dernicious system occurred re-
Gently in the disposal of a large block
of timber in the Pend d'Oreille re-
serve in Boundary county. The for
est service invited bids for certain
timber estimated at 61,3OO,OOO feet of
sawtimber and 10000 feet of cedar
poles. The bid Of the Bonners Ferry
Lumber company was the highest on
every class Of timber offered except
for green pine and on this the com
panys bid was 90 cents per thousand
above the minimum price fixed by the
forest bureau, thereby bidding thou
sands Of dollars more than the forest |
service had indicated its willingness /
10 accept The timber involved is in
Idaho and Montana. The Boomers
Ferry company estimates that 80 per
cent of it is on the Idaho side of the
line, while the forest service officers
admit that 10 per cent is in Idaho
Most of the timber is tributary to the
Kootenai river, down which it could b,
easily be floated to the Boomers Ferry /
mill, OF it could be hauled by railroad t
J. distance of 30 miles In spite of the c
favorable conditions for handling the 7
timber, and the outstanding fact that f
he bid of the Bonners Ferry COM r
AMY was the highest and best, the O
crest service rejected the bid Of the C
IDAHO company and has called for y
ew bids which stipulate that the O
mber must be manufactured into s
lmber at some point in western C
Iontana and in the Kootenai forest Ii
sserve, Thus this autocratic govern G.
tent bureau arbitrarily robs the n
ate of Idaho of its inherent right to p
-ilize it's own natural resources for 81
lie benefit of its own people. and e,
Iat too, after an Idaho company has a.
fered to pay more for the privilege w
AN any of its competitors. Iii
This we believe is the most fragrant II
ntrage upon the rights of the people de-
Idaho that has been perpetrated by p'
bureau that has long been notorious 81
r its disregard of the progress and di
elfare of the state. A vigorous pro-
st has been made against this arbi-
airy and unjust action by Congress- u

During that period retailers are ex-

Human and Humane Aspect of Mining
Operations

Mining and Scientific Press)
In this issue we publish the text o
la paper read last week before the loca
section Of the institute by Edwin Hig-
gins The subject was the treatment
OF employees at mines and mills; il
may be termed the human or humane
aspect of mine economies. Mr.. Hig-
gins is well qualified to discuss this
important matter, for to careful OBJ
servation he joins the sincerity with
out which no discussion on vital
matters is worth while. He was ad-
dressing mining engineers, therefore
he discussed the attitude of the en-
plOyer naturally, if he had been talk
/ ing to employees he would not have
laid so much emphasis on the idea Of
getting more out of the men, One of
the subsequent speakers suggested
that whereas the engineer used his
skill in exploiting valuable natural
resources. he failed to exploit the re-
sources most valuable to industry,
namely. man. Another dwelt elo-
.quently on schemes for making the
men comfortable and happy Those
are the ways, of course that discus
sion on the subject usually goes. Both
are unlikely to fulfill their purpose.
No man likes to think of himself as
being exploited for the benefit of 9TH
ers much of the so-called welfare
work fails simply because the objects
of it become self-conscious, they re-
sent the idea of being bamboozled by
Kindness into becoming more effective
machines for money making by cap
italists; they detect the cant that
turks in much of the pseudo philan-
-hropy Of captains of industry. On
The other hand, the Sunday school
sentiments of some managers and
iuperintendents are hardly less liked
