There is au interesting article in Everybody's Magazine for July, the burden of which Is anathema against such men as float worthless gold mining projects and induce suckers to buy shares In them. This" is a timely caution and we do not care to criti cise it, eave to ask . Mr. Hough, the author, why he picks out mining frauds especially to inveigh against. Why not assail the advertisements which cumber the eastern papers, offering worn out farms at a bargain. Does Mr. Hough know what it requires in time and money to recreate a worn out farm? When a shrewd, industrious, careful, thrifty Yankee farmer abandons a farm, what is left on such a place for an investor? Which is the more hon orable to awaken a man's hopes over a prospect which may be come a bonanza, or to sell him a worn out farm on which hope died years ago, and which would make a good theme for a painting of one of those noiseless tragedies of which so much of the history of the east is made? When president, General Jackson went with Dauiel Webster to Webster's native state. New Hampshire. Looking around upon the bare granite rocks Jackson, recalling, said: "Webster, what do men raise here to make a living?" and Webster replied with a proud humbleness, "We build school houses and raise men." We cite that merely to call Mr. Hough's attention to the fact . that there are other men who sell gold bricks beside mining pro moters. He says in all milling promotions there is a mother vein of gold. He is mistaken in that, but, nevertheless, there are mother veins. There is surely one in California. It is three hundred miles long. It is not mineral bearing through its entire length, but it has many ore chutes, and not one of these has over gveniout, and so it is legitimate for a miner who has a pros pect that shows paying values on the surface to assume that he may sink and drift as much as he pleases, but his ore body will never fail. And that vein extends from Kern county to Nevada county, and thousands of fortunes have already been taken from it. But Mr. Hough says, "Once a dollar was spent to mine a dollar, now two are spent." How does he Know? And does he keep in mind that after the dollar was spent and a dollar was obtained, then there were two dollars instead bf one? The first dollar was not lost, it merely changed hands, and in the mean time a new dollar was added to that kind of wealth which is indestructiblv. But he admits that we must have gold, that there is no other word that means quite so much, and we must have it. Then he describes it as "mailable, divisible, indestructible, rare; it is the indispensable medium of exchange." That is true, .as financial systems are arranged at present. It is the medium, -of exchange, but it is no longer a fair measure of values, because the thieves who possess most of It, put a new valuation upon it every day when that valuation Is measured by anything else - that men can produce. Silver has every attribute that gold has excepting only dens " ity. It held its own side by side with gold for centuries, and never varied until by men's legislation it was dethroned. Now, measured by gold, it has fallen in value more than 60 per cent. That is, gold is inflated by legislation to that premium. ' Who Is the man to be most assailed, he who sells shares in a " prospect hoi which may turn out to be a bonanza, or those who ' forced that legislation upon this country, and by the act caused every man's property to be weighed on those gold scales, and "thereby had their fortunes reduced 50 per cent, or If they were a little in debt, lost it all. On Monday $101,000 was put up on a prize light between & white man and a negro. Those who fur nished that money believed the- would get it all back and a ; little more for seats from which the crowds could see the fight, - from men who would pay more for seats than they would for two years rent of a pew in any church in the land. Do they need ; special sympathy when in the same spirit they buy some stocks in a mining prospect? Of course, there are mining share fakirs, but will Mr. Hough tell us of any occupation or business that has no fakirs? And we will keep in mind what he himself says that "gold is the measure of civilization and human success." Goodwin's Weekly. personal J. E. MacNamara came over from Goldfield Sunday.

Leading Stationers Marino's Orchestra The desire of a pigeon to learn to swim was the cause of the Ex tension mill closing down for about four hours yesterday. The pigeon it appears, had alighted in the huge water tank to the east of the mill and being unable to swim just drowned. The remains entered the main storage pipe, and became fast. When the supply of water began to diminish a hurried seaucn was made for the cause and in a short time the mill was forced to close. It was about four hours before the body of the bird was discovered and then, after the pipe had been joint ed again, the stamps resumed and everything proceeded as before.
