Te the Haitor of The Age Herald.
 My attention has been called to your editeriai ef dune 19, entitled, "Leasing, A Moral Question:" wish te commend yeuf editefia1 eh this subject and your courage In calling the publies attentieh te the fact that the maintenance ef the pris- ons sheuld be neither for the purpose of furnishing political jobs, nor for the purpose of mak- ing money, either fer the state or private individuals. I am pleased to know that Alabama is making improvements in this direction, and that it's best citizens are realizing the fact that men are of more i'm portance than money.

Statement From Nr. cope,an,


 The following communication member of the Jefferson county board of revenue, with the request that it be publtshed:
 Now that the legislature Is de- liberating on state problems, Dr. Bowling, in frequent newspaper articles, showing his fine aptitude as a propagandist, Is extolling his accomplishments in the depart ment of health of this county. However, the statement of vital statistics was not mentioned by Dr. Bowling. l herewith submit a compiled statement for the first five months of 1923, showing a comparison between the same months of 1922:
 Infant death rate under 1 year, per 1000 living births: 1923. white 4S3, colored SOFT; 1922, white 307.4. colored 643.3.
 Death rate of infants from 1 to 2 years of age per annum, per 100,- 900 populations: 1923, white 322.6, colored 312.2; 1922. white 2os6, colored 1sS.6.
 Death Nate of infants under 1 year of age, per 100000 population 1923, white S93.S, colored 1,6733; 1922, white S15.7. colored 1,179.9. ITO get the average, divide by ,, as 1000 per month was used as a basis for five months.
 Tt will be noted that the statis- tics are based on the same unit of population, and the same months, and for the same length of time in two different years. This alarm ing increase in the mortality rate cannot be attributable to any lack of wellpaid organization of the health specialists, as there were employed II nurses, including a supervising nurse at S200 per month, maintained by the county at cost of 1,445 per month; six nurses, including a supervising nurse at S175 per month, main tained by the city at a cost of s71O per month. This amount is supple mented by the shepherd -Towner funds at $360. S3 per month, mak- ing a total cost for nurses per month of S2,515.S3.

cation Of his own political faith. es-

which ne is like a father. must find it

THE PRICE OF SILVER AND THE
MINES OF IDAHO.

So far as the operation of the mines
of Idaho is concerned, the termination
of purchases of silver by the govern
ment at 81 per ounce will have no eff
feet except in the few cases in which
silver is the only or chief product and
it is possible that some Of these may
continue to earn fair profit if the
price of silver does not go below the
present level of abound IS cents per
ounce In the Occur d'Alene district.
from which comes probably 80 per cent
of the silver produced in Idaho, pro
fits will decrease to the extent of the
difference between the Pittman act
price and the foreign price Take one
of the mines that produces, say 100.
900 ounces of silver month. and some
of them produce much more than that
amount The difference between G5
cents per ounce, the present price, and
81, the Pittman act price, is 30 cents,
which means a loss per month of $50
600. But in spite of this heavy de
crease in profits, the mines of this dis
trict are able to continue in profitable
operation so long as lead remains
around the present price level the
price now being 7.25 cents per pound. |
Authorities on lead agree that there
is no immediate prospect of further
decline in the price. Although pro-
duction is large. consumption keeps
pace with it and there is therefore no
accumulation of surplus stocks. The
London price of lead is now practic-
ally the same as New York. after al
lowing for freight and tariff, and in
this situation there is no profit in i'm
porting lead from Europe this during
The past few months having been the
'hief factor in reducing the price.

600 to be accounted for The record
shows that $4,000 licenses have been
issued this year. leaving 1000 unre
ported. Mr.. Hall estimates that 10
per cent of these have been junked or
removed from the state, leaving $500
in commission and upon which licenses
have not been paid. Taking SIS as the
average license Mr. Hall points out
that these delinquent licenses repre-
sent $4,000. of which S31,5 is due
the state and s945OO is due the var
ious counties for use on the public
highways. If these cars are operat-
ing on the highways, the owners are
required to pay the license, and if
they are not operated then the owners
are required to pay a personal prop
erty tax on their cars.
Mr.. Hall further states that steps
are being taken to round up these
evaders of the law, and points ont
that it is the duty OF every citizen
who sees an automobile without the
1928 license plate to report the same
with the number to his Office in Boise.
He will also use the state highway
organization, which is represented in
all parts of the state, for the purpose
of having delinquents reported. In
this work the commissioner should !
have the cooperation of local officers
and citizens generally.

Roots speech resulted in the club en-
dorsing, by a divided vote, the presi-
dents proposal What was astonish-
ing about the incident was that Mr..
Root should have so far forgotten the
origin of the permanent court of in
ternatiOnal justice that he referred to
it as "the very thing that the Ameri-
can government and the American
people for a generation have been urg-
ing and later declared that for more
than a century America has stood for
the protagonist for this very court"
In his speech of April "a President
Harding sought to Justify his position
regarding the league court by remind
ing the country that the republican
party in its national platforms had ad-
vOcated the establishment of world
court. This of course did not fit the
case, for the republican platforms
were adopted before the league court
came into existence They certainly
could not be construed to endorse a
court afterward created by the league
of nations, American membership in
which was opposed by the republican
party in 1920.
Mr.. Roots argument for the league
court differs slightly from President
Hardings. but it is equally fallacious
He does not mention the republican
platforms. but goes into a wider field
and declares that the American gov
eminent and the American people for
a generation" have been in favor of
this court"
AS this court'-the league court
was not in existence the last time the
American people expressed their opin-
ions in a presidential election II is diff
fcult to imagine how they can be re-
garded as favoring such court It is
not the very thing" or the very
