Guggenheim practices in bonding properties and then dropping them have brought a great deal of minimizing con- demnation from mining men of the Northwest. Every now and then one sees a mean dig" in the mining-camp press at the famous fanlily's method of operations.
 The simple fact is that the Guggenheim concerns are look ing all the time for mining properties that can be operat- ed on a tremendous scale. That's their present-day speci- their present-day speciality. ality. Their organization is built for big scale operations.
 Transferring the situation to other lines, it is no more reas- enable to expect the Guggen- helms to operate small mines than it is to expect Hearst to operate small-town newspap- CTS, or the Claflins to establish crossroads stores, or Ford to manufacture hand-lathed axe handles, or Morgan to dabble in country banks.
 Because the Guggenheims have held an option on a mine and later dropped it is em- phatically no reflection on the value of the mine. As a matter of fact the merit of the propo- sition must have been demon strated or the Guggenheims would not have considered it at all. When the big concern pulls out it simply means that in the judgement of it's engi- neers the property is not sus- ceptible of operations on the scale to which the corporation ; keyed.

Commerce is displaying a com mendable determination to in- sist that the matter shall not be sidetracked for any such one-sided point of view as is advanced by the Alaska engi- neer's office. The appeal may not succeed, but it is to be hoped that it will at least be considered more from the viewpoint of the possible de- 5truction of lives and property, than from the standpoint of who owns the land.

The refusal of the Alaska representative of the War De- partment engineering board to recommend the river protect ion proposal should not be per mitted to dampen the spirits of those who are working for the realization of that highly neces,ary project. It is true that without the endorsement of Col. Steese and his associ- ates, the task of achieving the desired end is rendered a bit more difficult; but that the propo,,.l can be put through if righsly presented to the gov ernment, there is scarcely a doubt. The principal thing is to keep begging away at the job without abatement or dis cOuragement.
 That the engineering board has taken the stand that gov ernment measures, to confine the unruly Salmon river into a course that will not permit it to endanger the town would rebound more to the benefit of private interests than to the public is not in itself a conclus- i've argument a gainst the pro- posal. It can be shown with convincing assurance that the question of who owns the bulk of the land on which Hyder stands is of secondary import ance to the fact that the lives and property of an entire American community are in almost hourly danger of being swept away in a disastrous rush of waters and that this ever imminent promise of de- struction cannot be removed save at a cost far greater than can be borne by the commun- ity. We cannot believe that this great government can be so shamefully niggardly or so grossly neglectful of the lives and possessions of it's citizens as to refuse entirely to give aid in a situation such as con- fronts the citizens of Hyder as a result of the Salmon's fre- Guently unrestricted turbu- fences.
 In resolving to transfer the plea for governmental protect ion to the Board of Engineers at Washington by means of an appeal, the Chamber of
