 IN MANITOBA

WINNIPEG. Man, Jan. IA (by As sociated Press). - Four hundred di- vorce applications await hearing in the courts of Manitoba, it is an- nounced at the law courts. Scores of cases have been heard each month since Manitoba was given power to grant divorces a year ago.
 The small sum for which a divorce can be obtained is believed to be the cause for the hundreds of persons seeking legal separation. Lawyers state that a divorce can be secured through the Manitoba courts for less than $200.

 Space would be wasted if used for printing an account of the stoppage of operations at all mines which have closed on account of the low market value of gold The following item printed in the Oatman Mining News, Oatman, Arizona, is merely a speci- men:
 Abnormal cost of labor and sup plies has caused the famous ShaWmut gold mine to close down on yester- day, after many years of splendid pro- duction. The mine employed in the neighborhood of 200 men about fifty of these men having families. The mill will operate for another week and the refining plant will run the balance of the month to make the final cleanup. There is an immense tonnage of excellent ore blocked out which under normal conditions would pay fair profit but which cannot be handled under present conditions"
 AUSTRALIA ASSISTS PRODUCERS
 While American mine owners see the water rise in their mines at tue same time thofr bank accounts go down, Australian producers are con- graduating themselves upon good business, made good by a premium paid upon product on, and upon the advantages they enjoy in this respo !t over American producers Along this line the Mining and Scientific Prens recently commented as follows:
 "To the American miner it is all most annoying to read about the pre- mium paid on the gold produces; in other countries. Here is the Aus tralia Gold Producers Association an- nouncing that the total amount dis tributed among it's members on &C., count of the premiums earned on gold exported from Australia since March last year is 1,064,646 pounds of which the greater share was credited to the western Australian mines. Earned It. to 8 combination of circumstances, and more particularly to the appreci ation of our good old dollar with that fine old bird, the American eagle, upon it, whereby it commands a rate of exchange that calls for 110 Aus tralian shillings in lieu of the 84 that firmerly sufficed. Pleasantly apart, we envy those Australians; what a bully thing that premium is! It sweet ems the life of the gold miner just at time when he needs, and deserves, a cheerful tonic We read further that 'an interim dividend on the gold exported from Australia during the first quarter of this year amounted to 237,316 pounds Whether the pound sterling be worth more or less, that dividend looks good to them. Curi- ously enough it is due entirely to the fact that the British pound is worth only $3.50 just now. It is an i'll wind that blows nobody good Min ing Congress Journal

there is little danger that unduly large
dividends can or will be paid, but
generous dividends must be paid and
comfortable SURPRISES must be earned

utilities are to perform their proper

Public Learns Attitude.
The public is learning that capital
is not attracted unless generous re-
turns are assured. Rates of return are
too high on the besu securities, such
as governments and municipal bonds,
to make old rates of interest attrac-

are to obtain the money necessary for
them to give the service the public de-

earnings to compete for money in a
market in which the demand exceeds
the supply.

RAILWAYS
STILL DRAW CAPITAL
SAYS CHESTER CORY

CHICAGO, Feb. 10. - Investment
bankers have not lost faith in electric
railway securities and they will buy
mortgage bonds of these corporations
again as soon as regulatory bodies con-
vince the public that the railways are
entitled to a fair return on their ILL
vestments after paying operating and
other necessary expenditures. Chester
Cory, of Chicago, declared here today
in an address to the Mid-Year Con-
ference Of the American Electric Rail-
way association.
"The problem of the reconstruction
of the credits of the street railways is
not an easy one" Mr. Cory said, but
the foundations are fares sufficient to
yield generous returns on investments,
and funded debt which will require
the payment of interest charges
amounting to not over one-ha,f and
preferably not more than one-third of
net earnings.
Sales Aid Reconstruction.
AS part OF the reconstruction pro-
gram sales of stocks must ultimately
play an important part, and each com
pany should raise substantial amount :
Of money for extensions and additions,
including new equipment, by selling
its stock, preferably in the community
which it serves.

The Bozeman courier., 1921-04-20

In asking for Mr.. Conleys resignation Gov
ernor Dixon speaks no word of criticism He
merely states that he must have man in the
post who is in hearty sympathy with the admin
istration. And in this he is right. In the past
four years the state prison has cost the state in
the neighborhood of million dollars. Presum-
ably the next four years will see no reduction in
this expense, at least they would not under Mr..
Conley's management. In spending this vast sum
of money Governor Dixon must have man who
is in full and hearty sympathy with him and his
policies, for Governor Dixon is the man respon-
sible for it all.
The opposition papers likewise make capital
of the fact that Frank COnley is republican.
With all due Difference to Mr.. Conleys republican
ism, it is not reasonable to suppose he could ever
have advocated it very strongly and still retain
his office under Governor Stewart. Someway
Governor Stewart was never very partial to those
who have strong republican leanings.
Governor Dixon is governor of this state He
has the right to make his appointments as he
sees fit and apparently he is doing So If he felt
justified in removing Mr.. Conley, after over three
months Of trial, he should not be censured until
his appointee has a chance to either make good OF
fail.
