Oil may sidetrack the public in terest in the mining stocks during the summer, but watch the smoke of the mine Issues in the fall. Meantime the dividend payers will keep right along with their splendid perform ances and steadily add strength to the position of the industry. The copper world is now taking strong notice of Mason Valley and figuring another great producer for Nevada. Contact and others will come later, falling in line under the lead of the'Ely district. And in ten years more the Nevada group under this leadership will be standing at the head of the copper producing di visions of the country. It simmers down to the fact that the head of the Insane Asylum Board has neglected his job; has failed to call the board together to investigate! alleged wrongs in the nature of hor- j rors, preferring, instead, newspaper notoriety for purposes of political gain. The people will not be fooled, j After lapse of twenty years Sir Robert Anderson, for many years the official adviser of the British Home Office or Secret Service, has made a big stir by confessing that he was the author of the series of articles in the London Times on "Parnellism and Crime,” the purpose of which was to try to bring Parnell and other Irish leaders to the gallows by ac cusing them with complicity in the Proenix Park and other Irish agrar ian murders. The articles were cred ited at the time to Rchard Piggotr After a commission of three high Judges had exonerated Parnell, Pig gott confessed that ne did not write the articles, fled and killed himself. Now the Irish party is pressing the government to investigate all the circumstances and the Tories are dis- j conceited ny this revival of a scan dal in which their party was con cerned. Asquith, in the Commons last week referred to Anderson’s confession, and while condemning his course said no good could come from an inquiry now. Confirmation of the reported dis covery of a new substance to prolong life by Dr. Doyen, the famous Paris physician, has been cabled from the doctor himself. He says that the substance, which he calls mycoly sine, is now available to duly au thenticated American physicians for test and experiment if they apply through the American embassy at Parts. Dr. Doyen says further that four weeks will suffice to convince the American doctors of the value of this discovery provided the ex periments are conducted intelligently and faithfully and not with incur ables who are already near death. He asserts positively that his discovery will prolong human life from 15 to 20 years and that most diseases of the respiratory organs and digestive tract will disappear, also cancer of the skin. Mycolysine, which is a word meaning "germ solvent,” is composed of colloids, which are fine particles of insoluble substances, but how de rived the doctor does not say, but in dicates that they are extracted from the ferments of alcohol and from putrid fats. These colloids have the quality of causing rapid destruction of poisonous microbes by increasing the number of white corpuscles (pha gocytes), which act as natural scav engers and destroy the disease mi crobes. Then, their work done, the phagocytes disappear. The Agricultural Department is is suing instructions how to cook tough meat unttf it is tender. The recipe should begin like the famous one for cooking a hare. The first step in teaching the American people this thing is to convince them that they have to buy tough meat.

The strength in the stock market since the order for a reargument in ! the Tobacco and Standard Oil cases has reflected the relief to speculative sentiment, and as a result there has been short covering to a very con siderable extent to account for the advance in the prices. To what extent the large interests have aid ed the advance is not plain, but there is some reason for believing that the banking interests are favorable to a strong market because they have plans for financing the needs of the railways and other large corpora tions, and in carrying out such plans a strong market is always an aid. It is clear that if we are to have large crops and business is to be active for the balance of the year, that the rail ways will need additional cars and I locomotives and other facilities. The estimates of such men as James J. Hill indicate that annual expendi tures by the railways in order to maintain their facilities and take care of the increased traffic offered, must mount up to enormous figures. It will obviously require a period of confidence and easy money to properly finance such expenditures, and for that reason alone, the con stant agitation against the railways is to be regretted. Fortunately the outlook at Washington does not indi cate that there will be any drastic legislation, and that the leading rail-j way interests are entirely satisfied with the amendments to the inter state commerce law introduced at the instigation of the administration. So far as the legislative situation is conuerned therefore, the conditions are better than they have been for the past few years. The most favor able news last week was the improve ment in the condition of the crops. This is a mntter of the highest im portance and unless the season should develop abnormal weather conditions we shall harvest large* crops and they will go a long way toward solving the troublesome ques tions of the day, such as that of the unfavorable foreign trade conditions and the high cost of living. High prices are not altogether a question of the tariff, the trusts or the size of the crops, but they are i all factors of more or less Impor tance. One factor is undoubtedly the Increased demand for the various commodities caused by the increase in population and the large wealth of the people, including the higher wages paid to labor. It is true also that the manufacturing industries have attracted a larger and larger percentage of the population, and that the proportion engaged in agri cultural pursuits has been growing comparatively small. Thus there is a constant decrease in the amount of foodstuff available for export. It may be doubted if under the circum stances we can look for crops large ienough to restore our foreign trade balance to the old favorable eon i dition, but good crops would at least serve to offset our purchases abroad. The foreign trade statement for the last month showed an actual ex cess of imports over exports and al though the exports of gold were stopped by the sale of Lake Shore notes abroad, it is the opinion of I bankers that unless European In vestors continue to take our securi j ties, we shall lose more of the i precious metal. This will raise the question of to what extent money 1 rates will become a factor In the speculation, for the reserves of the New York banks are not so large but that further gold exports will make a hole in them unless funds contin ue to come east front the interior. The banks in the west, however, are said to be pretty well loaned up on wheat and grains, so that the move ment of the currency east at this season is not expected to be as large as usual. It does not scent there fore, that the money situation is such as to warrant the bullish specu laton in stocks that is looked for in ! certain quarters. The situation is complicated fur ther by the political conditions in tJreat Britain, and until the Budget is passed the government must be a heavy borrower for running ex penses. Furthermore, the directors of the Bank of Kngland will wish to get the institution in a strong posi tion and notwithstanding the gain in the condition a week ago, the reserve is not up to the average for this season even when conditions are normal. It Is evident that we have safely passed the crisis among tlie labor element on the railways, but on the other hand there is danger that voluntary advance in wages by the United States Steel Corporation may result in a general movement on the part of labor and cause troubles here and there for employ ers not able to stand the increased expense. It is not strange that there is a note of conservatism in Im portant quarters which speculators will do well to heed, even though for the moment the market shows an upward trend.—Boston Financial News. Coincident with declaration of doubt of the truth or statements of J. G. Driscoll, discharged asylum em ploye, concerning alleged asylum abuses, it appears that the acting members of the asylum board called the bluff of Driscoll and the balking head of the board in the following de mand upon Driscoll, issued on Fri day last and printed on that date in papers in the western part of the state. Mr. J. G. Driscoll, Deno. Nevada. Dear Sir:—A certain unsworn doc ument has been handed to the board of commissioners for the Hospital for Mental Disease, by lieutenant and Acting Governor Dickerson, purport ing to be charges preferred by you against Dr. 8. C. Gibson, superintend ent of the said hospital. As these charges must be sworn to before we can hear or determine the same, we hereby notify you that we will give you ten days from today within which to swear to the charges you have made and a date will then be imme diately set for hearing of the same, and all parties interested given an opportunity to be heard. As these charges reflect on the integrity and ability of the present superintendent who has been in charge of said insti tution for the past five years, anil are of grave and serious nature which call for criminal action against said superintendent, if the charges be proven true, or a criminal prosecu tion against you for criminal libel and slander if not true, we trust that you will be as prompt to sub stantiate your charges under oath as you have been to publish them with out being sworn to and without the knowledge of the board, to the end that we may know officially if the public servant has been recreant to his trust or not, and that the public know the truth or falsity of the said charges preferred by you. As Lieutenant and Acting Govern or Dickerson declares he will not per form his offii ial duties regarding mat ters pertaining to the said hospital and he has declared that he will have nothing further to uo with the insti tution which by law he is authorized and required to do, and act with us in the supervision of the same. We the undersigned representing the majority of the said board will discharge our duty as required by law Irrespective of the action of the lieu tenant and acting governor. There fore any communications you have regarding this matter you will ad dress to either of the undersigned, to the end that the matter may be cleared up at the earliest possizlfe date.
