BLUE SKY LAWS.

mines will be exhausted in a few
years and the nation will be without
a supply of minerals 1t is therefore
vastly important that prospecting
shall go on continuously, and from the
figures given above it is evident that
not to exceed one in ten of the we'll
chosen prospects will become a large
producer of minerals. Any blue-sky
law which prevents investment in min
ing prospects, all of which carry these
hazards, is not only bad law but it is
a law which becomes a public menace.
The public is entitled to know the
facts about any mining promotion
which is offered for investment. Being
advised of the facts, any law which
prevents the taking of the risk which
mining investments necessarily carry
does not serve the best interests of
the public
There is need for careful considera-
ton of this subject Laws should be
enacted not to protect the fool against
himself but to make it possible for
every investor to know the facts, to be
able to measure the hazards under
taken, to require that money contrib
uted for development work shall be
spent for development work. With
these precautions any law which prac-
tcally forbids investment in mine de
velopment is necessarily inimical to
the public welfare.

COX AS A VOTE eETTER.


There seems TO be popular deiusiOn
that James NJ. Cox is a great vote
getter. He was elected governor of
Ohio in 1912, after two terms in con-
gress from the third district But
anybody running on the democratic
ticket that year would have been elect
ed, the republicans casting 272,5OO and
the progressives PIT, 9OS in the guber-
material contest. But in 1914 Mr.. Cox
was defeated by vote of 524,625 to
49S.367. or over $1,000, with the pro-
gressives still voting 60.971. He won
again in 1916. but by a margin of only
5.199. compared with a margin 35, 522
plurality for Senator Pomerene and an
S9,5OS plurality for President Wilson.
In 1918 owing to the wet and dry ques-
tion Gov. Willis, who got the nomina-
ton over the protest of Hamilton
was defeated, losing the cleo
ton in that one county. Gov. Cox re-
ceived 1885, 0S and Willis got 474.459.
Cox was $4,000 under Wilson two
years before. while Willis vote was
less than that of Hughes by 10000 Mr..
Cox has been a fortunate candidate
There is no indication of his superior
vote getting power He has merely

MER-LABoR cAND date
WOULD PARDON DEBS.

Farley T. Christensen, of Salt Lake
CITY who has suddenly emerged from
obscurity by becoming the nominee of
the farmer-labor party for president of
the United States has sought further
notoriety by calling upon Harding and
Cox to join him in asking pardon for
Eugene Debs another presidential can
didate, who is somewhat handicapped
in the conduct of his campaign by be-
ing confined within prison walls. It
appears that this handicap is a shock
TO MIR Christensen's sense of fair play,
and he appeals to the craftsmanship
of the republican and democratic can
didates to join him in "a demand upon
the president of the United States to
Immediately release the socialist can
didate from the Atlanta prison" That's
putting it rather strong. so strong in
fact that it leads to suspicion that Mr.
Christensen is actuated by a motive
other than merely fair play to a fell
low candidates it sounds more like an
appeal by one comrade in behalf of
another
This suspicion is further suggested
by the statement of Mr.. Christensen
that whatever justification there
might have been on the part of the
government for denying Debs his free
dom during the war has now been
Cissipated by twenty months of peace"
Let ms see how near Mr.. Christensen
adheres to the truth in saying that
whatever justification there was for
imprisoning Debs has been dissipated |
Debs was charged with attempting to |
cause INSTRUMENTATION. disloyalty mu-
tiny or refusal of duty in the military |
or naval forces;" OF attempting to
ohs,ruct the recruiting or enlistment
service of the United States" and of
'uttering language tending to incite,
provoke and encourage resistance to
The United states and to promote the
cause of the enemy" He was found
guilty of all these ofenses against the
government by jury in the federal
'ourt in Cleveland in September. 1918.
The case was appealed to the supreme
,ourt of the United states which a
ew months later in unanimous de-
asion affirmed the verdict of the
ury on the count accusing him of OBJ
recruiting. He was there

workmen. These and other western
miners will receive this high testimon.
ial of unselfsh sacrifice at Denver il
September on the occasion of the in
ternational frst-aid and mine rescue
contests. In an editorial on the high
courage of these men the Mining and
Scientific Press says:
We can thing of no act of courage
more unselfsh or more splendid
than to enter a burning or caving
mine in an effort to save the life of
fellow workmen. The risk is not
faced on the spur of the moment,
it is taken knowingly and deliber-
ately; it means entering a dark
hole in the ground where the story
of a valiant effort may be buried
with the bodies of those in danger
and their would be rescuers. and
even if successful there can be
nothing of the spectacular in the
performance; there is no glamOr
of heroic achievement before an
admiring crowd; often there is less
chance OF saving the lives Of the
imperiled ones than of losing those
of the men that seek to aid them.
IL is an everlasting tribute to the
miner that invariably when the
emergency arises someone quietly
UNDERSTANDS the task of rescue.

tional first-aid and mine-rescue

miners were entombed as a result

while endeavoring to help their
comrades, were themselves caught
by caving rock. They were later
rescued although buried to the
shoulders in broken ore. Messrs.

distinguished themselves in the
terrible fire in the Spectator mine

other miners lost their lives. The
heroism of these three, however,
stood out particularly. and their
relatives are now to receive the
honors that the men so unselfishly
earned. The other men named

less than to those whose heroism
is to have a public recognition so

The Stuff That Counts
(Anonymous.)

The test of a man is the fight he
makes,
The grit that he daily shows;
The way he stands on his feet and
takes
Fate's numerous bumps and blows.
A coward can smile when there's
naught to fear.
When nothing his progress bars.
But it takes a man to stand up and
cheer
While some other fellow stars.
Il isn't the victory after all
But the fight that a brother makes;
The man. who. driven against the wall.
Still stands mp erect and takes
The blows of fate with his head held
high
bleeding, and bruised, and pale,
Is the man who'll win in the by and by.
For he isn't afraid to fail.
It's the bumps you get, and the jolts
you get
And the shocks that your courage
stands.
The hours of sorrow and vain regret.
The prize that escapes your hands.
That test your mettle and prove your
worth;
1t isn't the blows you DEAL
But the blows you take on the good
old earth
That show if your stuff is real.
