SEARCH FOR GOLD.

None are doing more toward expressing de- pression and 5anish-ng poverty than those who are producing gold and striving to produce it. Those who are operating and d-vlopng gold mines and searching for prospects that might be made into gold mines are giving very important service to the general public. gold mlne not only produces life blood fer industry and business but it helps to solve the unemployment problem.
 It has been suggested in Seattle that people with means to afford it ought to send prospectors into Ala5,a hills and valleys to search for gold. l. has been estimated by some of those who are giving t consideration that 10000 prospeetors could with profit be set at the work. It is con- tended that if this were done it would not only find employment for the 10000. but it would prob aoly result in large payrolls in many sections Of the Territory that would make an opening for considerable part of the surplus population, energy and capital in the States
 The Empire would suggest to those in Seattle and elsewhere that might be considering this pro- posal that the best place to get prospectors who would give value for the money paid them would be in Aaska where the prospectors are familiar with conditions and working methods.
 There is no question but that the who can afford to do so. that sends men into the field to look for geld prospects and who spends money in intellsensy developing prospects is contributing to the esaa5fg's welfare, and stands chance to make large returns on his investment and energy.
 This must not, hoWeVeE,sbe taken to be encour- agement for those who need the money they have CT are earning for themselves or their families to

Helping the Bison.

 Dr. Blair Director of the Naw York Zoo, has come to England to help us save our bison The animal is already nearly extinct that it will be news to most people that we still have bison to save. T. appears, however, that the Duke of Bedford has a herd at Woburn Abbey, and there are pre- sumably also a few left in Poland and Germany since Dr Blair talks of American help for breeding centars there Still all told, Europe apparently can only boast 59 specimens There is a number verging even more perlously towards extinction than the thousand odd to which the American herd once ssnk though this has now happily been multiplied by protective measure more than tWenty-fOld. But our problem is quite distinct from the American h America the danger arose from the practice of indscriminating slaughter from excursion trains or by driving the herd precpice, in South Africa lions were at time hunted from motor cars l. is of course, to such that the disappearance of the European bison is due Ac- cording to Dr. Blair it is due to the fact that they do not breed in restricted They need wide open spaces. Zoos are not very good for them nor does Whipsnade quite suit them" Thus the task of saving the European bison, which is a dfGaren, species from the American, is a hard one.

Court Takes Appeal From
Referees Decision in Case
Under Amusement.
BORCHARDT is ASKED
TO DELAY HIS ARGUMENT
Sullivan Seeks to Go Into Funds
Borrowed by Rheem From Com.
pany He Managed.

Another effort by Swartzell, Rheem
& Hensey Co. creditors to investigate
the personal finances of Edmund D.
Rheems, vice president OF the bank
rupt mortgage house, was blocked to-
day by legal technicalities.
After an application to conduct such
an examination was denied by Fred
j. Eden, referee in bankruptcy, two
attorneys for creditors took the point
to District Supreme Court for a final
ruling, appearing before Justice Jen-
nings Bailey today.
Attorney Marcus Borchardt, who is
seeking authority for a broad inquiry
into Rheem's personal finances, was
asked to postpone his argument until
a more complete summary Of the evil
dence at the hearings could be filed in
the court by the referee.
The other attorney. George E. Sulli-
van. was seeking to inquire into the dis
position of funds borrowed by Rheem
from the company. while he was its
executive head, and discussed under
four separate accounts.
After preliminary argument on this
point, however, Attorney Leo Tobriner,
appearing for the bankrupt, questioned
the right of the creditors to carry the
point to the District Supreme Court.
He contended this action should have
been taken by the trustees in bank
ruptcy. Justice Bailey asked the at
torneys to submit memoranda on this
point, and postponed ruling until he
has hal time to consider them.

TOLERANCE URGED
FOR ALL RELIGIONS
Diffenbach, in G. w. U. Ser
mon, Says Churches Should
Relieve Suffering.

While it is the business of religion to
attend to the suffering of mankind,
Christianity Is not the only religion,
Rev. DR.. Albert Charles Diffenbach of
Cambridge, Mass. declared In the bac-
calaureate sermon to the George WASH
ington University graduating class yes
terday in the New York Avenue Pres
byterian Church.
Ever since the biblical days of the
pilgrims search for the promised land"
DR.. Difenbach said, "all worth their
salt have sought change for the better
ment of mankind. Now we realize this
better land is not matter of geography,
but state of mind.
And SO We are no longer pilgrims,
but today the world belongs to us and
we propose to mold it to our hearts de-
sires. The world owes us a living and
we propose to collect it-not for ma
terialfstic aim, but to enable each one
OF us to lead well rounded life.
Sees Russian Religion.
To-day We are saying there shall be
no longer any discrimination under the
brotherhood of man and the fatherhood
OF God. Russia, not realizing how pro-
foundry religious she is. has sought this
through incorporating as article one of
her faith that the man who does de-
cent job is entitled to his livelihood.
and through the indignation of religion
and the state, stabilizing the economic
well-being of her people
Asserting that he was mot coming to
the support of any false principles prac-
ticed in Russia" DR.. Diffenbach de-
clared that lat the same time nothing
essentially of grosser iniquity Is being
done in Russia than in many of the
capitaliStic nations. Nothing is more
terrible than millions of starving people
in land of plenty"
He reiterated a recent statement of
the head of the Harvard School of
Business Administration that unless
the men of business in the world as
sumo social responsibility instead Of the
mad competitive race for profits, as the
corner stone of business, they are
doomed"
Pleads for Vision.
DR.. Difenbach pleaded for a broader
vision with respect to the other nations
and creeds in the world.
The Christian religion is not to be
regarded as the only religion" he said
Religion is to be found over the face
of the world. and even in America we
are coming to understand that we can
learn from people of the uttermost parts
of the earth. And If we do not learn,
then will come the deluge. No religion
Is a complete religion until it integrates
the means of livelihood into its credo. II
