Neg!ecting Their Language

To judge from the numerous arti-
Giles that are being written on China,
it's literature is not reaping great
benefits from the revolution In the
first place, the Chinese language is
being pushed more and more into
the background. The younger gen.
GRAFTON no longer receives the train
ing it once received in the'Chinese
Classics" and hand in hand with
this goes their preference for for
eign languages-English primarily,
and then French, with little Ger
man. 1t is. of course. impossible for
a country to build up body of ma
tional literature in a foreign lam
guage. intellectually, however,
China is making reassuring progress.
Its three greatest political writer's,
all of whom have been active now
for nearly a quarter of a century
-Tschang- Schi tung. Kang Yu-wei,
and LANG Kitschao-are as active
as ever in their efforts to save the
nation from the fate of India or
Burma or Korea or Egypt or Poland.

Cotton Mills Gain In Asia

Living Age. That continent pro-
duces large quantities Of this Use

competent and remarkably cheap
mill operatives. Naturally, there
fore, cotton mills are multiplying
rapidly in Japan, China and India,
where they create, new social prob
lens almost as quickly as they sup
ply the local market with yarns and
fabrics.
The industry already gives en-
ployment to more than 100000 oper-
atives in China, and more than $780,
600 operatives in Japan. Four fifths
of the workers in japanese mills are
women or girls; but in China and
India male labor is principally en-
ployed. 1t has long been known that
the mortality among japanese spin
ners. especially from tuberculosis, is
very high. Their hours of labor are
long, and the annual turnover APP
proaches 100 per cent.

Youna Remington's Home

When Frederic Remington was a
boy in Kansas City he worked in a
pool hall, and INDUCED his fancy for
drawing between chores. He sketched
and drew until he made a consid-
cradle collection of his works"
which he kept under his bed. 1t
was not until his talent was recog-
nized by the late William w. Findley
that the distinguished artist mad a
real chance.
If Remington had been a boy in
Kansas City so years later he would
have been in school and his talent
would have been discovered very
promptly and cultivated under the
direction of good teachers. He would
have had to make his way of course,
and he might not have reached a
greater distinction, nor achieved fame
earlier. But that is not the point.
The interesting and important thing
is that, whereas development of ex-
traordinary talent in earlier days
was largely matter of chance,
there is greater opportunity now in
every field for those who have the
quality of success in them. A career
no longer need he a matter of chance,
1t is almost wholly a matter of &C
cepting the opportunities offered
There is nothing in the lazy "alibf'
that the days of individual opportun-
itv are over. They never were so
filled with invitation and inspiration.
The boy or man who has 1t In him
to get somewhere has abundant fa-
cilities placed at his disposal that
were entirely wanting even as re-
Gently as the time Of Remington's
boyhood.-Kansas City Times.

False German Tales

resentatives of foreign countries with
imaginary data regarding the state Of
German industry and military pre-
paredness, was sentenced recently to
three years. Imprisonment, with a de-
duction of one and a half years for
the time he had spent in Jail await
ing trial.
The Berlin court found him guilty
of having entered into relations with
agents of a foreign government in
violation of the law against revealing
military secrets. The defense con-
tended that this law applied only to
persons who actually did give mill
tary Information to foreigners and
not false stories. 1t was brought out
that Anspach knew enough about the

monarchist societies to make his tales

Taking Prohibition ou. Of Politics


No one, not even the most ardent
supporter of the merit system,
claims that to put enforcement Of
ficers under civil service rules will
make them all incorruptible saints,
nor does any one believe that the
political enforcement of the
Volstead act will at once turn every
citizen of the country into a law
abiding prohibitionist. If by divorc-
ing 1t from politics the Volstead act
can be made genuinely effective, in
a few generations bootlegging and
drinking will be as much under the
social ban as theft and murder.
Whisky will undoubtedly continue to
be sold in the haunts of criminals,
and bootleggers will ply a precarious
trade in evil places: but no man in
decent society will vaunt his de-
fiance of the law. nor will the gilded
youth boast of the contents of their
hip TASKS. 1t will have ceased to be
spectable.-Imogen B. Oakley, Cur

for such session. The object of the
meeting was to take action on the
proposed transfer of stock for Co
operation Creamery stock and the
way of payment and other matters
incidental to saving what is possible
to the original stock holders.
A considerable number of former
stock holders were present and the
entire matter was gone over. 1t was
shown that the present Cooperation
Creamery Company is on a sound
basis and that 1t has proven a paying
investment to those who have paid
up stock In this concern.
After sitting over a lot of matters
in connection with the creamery the
following resolution was adopted:
Resolved; That the board of di-
rectors be authorized to enter into
negotiations with the bank holding
the securities whereby they will ex-
change Mutual Creamery stock for

not exceed 32 cents per share for

Gold Basin Name
of New Mining Camp

During the week the miners and
claim owners of camp Wilson met
and organized a district. This dis
trict will bear the name of Wilson,
while the new camp will in the fu-
ture be known as Gold Basin. A
townsite is to be laid out and by the
time spring comes on 1t is the gem
eral belief that Gold Basin will be
among the new and thriving mining
eenters of Nevada.
Sunday two parties from Goldfield
left for the new camp and expect to
remain for some time. Others are
coming and going but the cold wealth
eI has to a certain extent prevented
any rush and there is no public ac-
commodations for visitors. Only
through the extension of hospitality
by those in camp is it possible to
take care of visitors and others In
speeting the camp.
See Future
Howard Riddel, who has spent the
past week at the camp came in Tues
day afternoon. He states that there
is considerable activity in the camp
and that a number of new finds have
been reported. In one place on the
Wilson property ledge matter carry
ing free gold has been opened up, and
that more work will develop vein
of good ore on this property. Wilson
is now hoisting gravel from the gulch
and has set up a gasoline hoist for
this purpose.
The Knight property continues TO
attract attention and as development
goes on the showing is better than
ever. Mr.. Riddel is confident that
the Knight ground is the making of
real mine.
On the Ace Robinson ground some
excelletn ore has been exposed. This
ground is to be developed, in fact
work is now under way on the prop
erty. Mr.. Rlddel, who has lease on
section OF the Wilson ground. is
making arrangements to get action.
Weather conditions are holding him
up at present.
He with others state that there is
no question but that there will be d
real mining camp at Gold Basin this
spring, and from the number of min
ers and prospectors now on the
ground and inquiries there is a GER
tainty that there is boom in sight
for this new district.

This message was received at the
