Fur ther drilling this fall uncovered another channel, and reports are that two separate operations will be carried on next season. The method of mining On Monument creek is of unusual interest. The creek is very flat making it nec- essary so that sluices are set down in the bedrock to a depth of 3 or feet. The tailings are hoisted toward gin pole using Sauer- man bucket with an Ersted Hoist with a Fordson for power. This method has proven. highly eff cient.

K0UChR0k MINING SECTION

The Henry Greek Dredging Co.,, c. E. Hallberg superintendent and general manager, operated this season from Aug. 5th to Oct. 9th, on the lower Kougarok river about three miles below Henry Creek. The dredge whicn was formerly used by the Boring Sea mining con cern under Joe Matthews for sev- eral years, was taken over by Hallberg including lot of min ing property and mining equip ment Mechanics were set to work to place the dredge in operation and thru the ingenuity of super iptendent Hallbergh every obstacle was overcome, even to welding parts and building up bearings. etc, after the dredge had been un- used for several years. From the time the dredge was placed in operation, it performed constantly without any serious stops until shutdown this fall. and the clean nps have been very encouraging and better than was expected. All in all the seasons activities by this concern was big success, and demonstrates that when pro perly managed, mining ground in the Kougarok will go ahead with leaps and bounds. The dredge which is two and one-half Close connected type, was changed from cable to spud idea which gave the desired results. The excell- sAt crew of nine, whom Manager Hallberg employed and were all responsible for the success attain ed were: Grover Andree, August Adams. Oscar Norman, E. Gibon, R.

Chance Worth Taking

An extremely interesting experiment in criminology
Is proceeding in Ohio these days.
A bond salesman was arrested at Akron last spring
Tor forging a S15 check. He complained that his mental
condition was not right. Nine years ago, he said, he had
been hit on the head while playing football, and the injury
had left him unable to distinguish between right and
wrong.
The Ohio authorities decided to take him at his
word. They sent him to the state hospital for observation
and psychiatrists agreed that he was indeed handicapped
by a skull injury.
So, the other day, the prisoner was operated on. A
Du OF bone that had been pressing on his brain was re-
moved, and after the operation it was announced that he
would not be prosecuted on the forgery charge.
1t is perfectly possible, of course, that the authorities
were imposed on. It is noteworthy, for instance, that
Coach Stagg of the University Of Chicago football team
the team on which the man said he was playing when he
got hurt-denes that the man ever played for Chicago.
1t may be that he has cleverly put one over on prosecutors
and doctors.
But that isn't the point. The point is that the
authorities were willing to experiment-willing to take a
chance on being fooled in order to try to rehabilitate a
criminal and make him a useful member of society again.
A chance of that kind is abundantly worth taking.
Suppose that the man should turn out to be a faker, after
all. One more crook, among the thousands tfat infest
the land, is hardly worth worrying about. On the other
hand, if it develops that he and the doctors were right,
place of a convict-an exchange that is always worth
making.
Society is none too willing to take chances of this
kind. That is one reason why so many criminals are
second and third offenders. We shall never meet the
problem of the "crime wave" intelligently until we are
more ready to risk something in dealing with men who
have broken the law.

Investigators In schools, kinder

ly found that children from aver

J. c. winters in Texas concerned
the diets or so American. so Negro

carefully studied as to the total

that the ave- age American eats an

Worth the Expense

"A publishing firm announces that the Wickersham
report on prison conditions cost the government approx
mately so cents a word. Since the report contained a
great many words, this naturally means that it was fairly
expensive.
But it will probably become apparent, as time passes,
that it was worth it. This survey Of prisons was a thing
that the country needed very badly. The job was COM
petently done, and it will be of extreme value to sociolo-
gists, criminologists and legislators for years to come.
Fifty cents a word is a higher rate than any editor is
willing to pay for manuscripts, even from the most famous
writers. But Uncle Sam, proving himself the most gener-
Gus editor in existence, got, nevertheless, full value for his
money.

Forest Fires and Incendiarism

One of the strangest and most dismaying things
about the terrible forest fires that have swept the west
in the last few weeks is the fact that so many are of in
~cendiarv origin.
Time after time investigators have discovered un-
mistakable evidence that someone had voluntarily and
maliciously started the destructive fires; and the whole
business is exceedingly hard to understand.
