MINING SWINDLES
With mining swindles costing American investors
from $30,000,000 to $100,000,000 a year, according to vari
ous estimates, it may be surprising to learn that The gov
ernment possesses no proper means of checking these
cmininal activities. This situation bids fair to be re
membered in due time through a bill, sponsored by a west
ern senator, authorizer and directing the post master
general to have all mines whose owners are using the
United States mails to sell shares to the public examined
by an expert of the gelogical survey.
SPEAKING OF COAL
This is an unusually cold July, but it is too warm to
make coal a pressing subject in the minds of congressmen.
Therefore the whole subject of marketing coal and avert
ing strikes in the anthracite field was laid over till Decem
ber, when the outdoor temperalure may be expected to
give congressmen a keener interest in the subject that
they now feel.
AS IN THE OLD DAYS
Dr. W. M. McGovern, the famous explorer, has return
ed to London form an expedition to the Amazon and the
Andes. For many months he had been missing and it was
thought he had been killed. He was lost for some time
in the jungle, was twice artacked by hostile Indians, found
tribes that had never been seen before by civilized people
and made many remarkable discoveries. Truly, the days
of adventure are still with us.
BE CAUTIOUS
It is said that an American has four chances in 100,
000 of living a century. Don’t spoil your own prospect of
being one of the four by racing your car against the loco
motive at the grade crossings on the SewaVd-Kenai high
ber, when the outdoor temperature may be expected" to
VESSEL MOVEMENTS
