eliminated, as a result of their inability to longer delude in- vestors by spending a few dol lars for development and thousands for spectacular flares in the grog joints of Canada. A few still manage to find suckers to finance their nefarious practices but each year witnesses illumination of their numbers and the camp
 is being gradually relieved of both their presence and act ivities. The lack of confidence engendered by their swindling operations in the past con- tinues to delay legitimate de- veIopment, but, as in the case of the experts" returns from

We are tempted to speak a word to our merchants. We do it however, only with the best intentions. We are thank ful that you have placed your advertisement in our columns. Our wideawake readers will see it and they will read it.
 If the merchants wish to keep trade at home, they must, of course, let the public know what goods and what induce they offer. The great merchants of our larger cities are constantly advertising at an enormous expense, but it pays them; and it was by shrewd advertising that they became so successful. They cannot afford to stop, or else

There is nothing that calls at- tention and draws peo- pie to a town equal to good newspaper. In order for a man to make a good newspap- CT he must have the patronage of the people among whom he lives. If he has halfway SUD- port it stands to reason that he must make a poorer news paper, and in doing this every man in the town and surround ing country has to bear a port ion of the loss. For this reas- on, if no other, the man who tries to make a good news paper, should have the SUD- port of his own people, all of whom reap fully as much benefit from it's efforts as he does himself.

The American flag should fly over every school turnout the country every school day. Childhood and innpressionable youth should know their nat ions colors, and something of that flag etiquette designed to express proper respect. But true appreciation of the flag rests on a broader foundation. There must also be under standing of the American ideals for which it stands; !; comprehension of the strug- gles and sacrifices that have sustained it in emergency, and knowledge of all the worthy principles it symbolizes.
 That is a large lesson for the schools to teach, but it is a part of their purpose of niak- ing better citizens.

Tinhorn promoters, intent

Tinhorn promoters, intent upon no greater development of the m ming properties they exploit than is necessary to extract a meal ticket from the pockets of the gullible public, are lar and away the worst enemies to real development that can afflict a mining camp. Next to them are the cocksure engineers" who, because they do not happen to find geo. logical conditions of-a type with which they are familiar, are ready to condemn a min eral area on the strength of superficial examinations.
 me development of this dis trict is retarded today by the activities of both types in the past. The meal ticket pro- motors have collected hun dreds of thousands of dollars from the outside public for the alleged purpose of devel- oping mines in this locality. And that was the end of their manipulations as far as the investors were concerned.
 Engineers, eminent and oth- erwise, have time and again turned thumbs down" on the district as a whole and on properties which time is prov ing to be bonanzas.
 In most cases their verdict was the result of pure ig- norance. Geological formations in this section are unlike any known mineral area. Nature seems to have wrought with titanic crudeness in the az glomeration of rock types found in the mineralized area. Finding conditions different from any they had previously encountered, they naturally took no chances of injuring their regulations by admitting the fact that they knew noth- ing at all about it. As a rule the more eminent they were, the quicker their condemnat- ion and the more hasty their departure.
 Time, however, cures all evils. Development still lang uishes as a result of the num- erous ''black eyes" inflicted by the" M. Els" and promot- ion fakers but smelter returns and an ever increasing range of development are proving how little most of the "ex- r"-+-" re"lly know, and the tinhorns have been gradually

 A Hyder lady told us the oth- CT day that she thought it very funny, but she had not missed the vice president at all. The most uncertain thing we know (for it is always on the go) is milady's line of waist, which no longer fingers in one place, but up and down forever slips from the should CTS to the hips: Pm sure the men would think it fine if they could fix this changing line, for with so many false alarms, .they don't know where to mi their arms.

Leopold, the tests showed, believes
that men of unusual Intellectual at
tainments, who have beer carefully
trained, are above the ordinary
laws and conventions and that it is
right for them to do what might be
wrong for an illiterate or more
poorly educated person. He be-
lives it is lawful to take human

Loeb in Better Shape
Loeb apparently is more able 70
distinguish right from wrong than
Leopold, the psychologists exam
ming him discovered. But he has
abnormal traits which have been
with him since early childhood
Some OF these traits have been re-
sponsible for his perversions OF
mind and holy. According to the
doctors he is the victim of we'll
defined disease, an ailment long
understood in medical circles, but
one which the law defines as
crime.
This disease, some of the physi-
clans retained by the families OF
the two boys declared, is subject
to treatment and may be cured.
However, persons who have the pc
culiar form of ailment Loeb posses
es need restraint, supervision and
treatment by mental and physical
specialists who understand dealing
with abnormalities.
In their discussion of the com
plexities of the Loeb and Leopold
the physicians agreed that the two
youths constituted the most amaz-
ing pathological cases that ever
had come to their attention. Sorle
of those who were present at the
tests came to the conclusion that
the two slayers were not md never
had been insane, as insanity is de-
fined by law. These doctors, how
ever, were of the opinion that any
one of several major mental and
physical adnormalities noted in the
two boys would have been suf-
ficient to have led to their strange
crime. For this reason, the physi-
clans agreed, the slayers were not
responsible for the act and do not
deserve hanging, but instead,
should be confined for the rest of
their lives in an institution whore
they would be watched and treated
! However, one doctor said that in
his opinion both boys might be
cured of their oddities and, that, il
they were cured, they could be re-
