TAXATION There Is no industry where, dollar for dollar, there Is so lunch money expended in producing results as in mining Labor in mining is all high priced and materials used, from powder to smelting, runs Into big money It is a notorious fact of history that, considering prospecting, unpro ductive mines and \ups and downs,\ thè dollar taken out of a mine in nine cases out of ten has cost two dollars. Those who advocate income taxes, severance taxes and gross pro duction taxes on mines are generally found conducting a business less pre carious than mining The only just tax on a mine is a tax on its net product; but instead of that they pay state and fedenG corporation taxes, income and \sur taxes, and property taxes. And In spite of all this, Western mining In dustry is looking up. COONEY vs. CARROLL How now? Byron Cooney, editor and publisher of The Montana Am erican of Butte, 1* renowned for his outspoken criticism of public men and measures; yet one would hardly expect him to write these words un der the heading- \Seeing Things Right Her. John P. Carrori, bishop of Helens ha sheen seeing things at right. In his Lenten statement, read in the Catholic churches last Sunday, and given wide publicity it the press, he «bibite a cert*is ner- abewt the movies.

Th« bishop is only echoing plati tudes which, if they were once &p- vRcaWe, are no iosger applicable to the luorteg picture industry. The censors have done everything to the movies th a t censorship can do; the picture business has been worked over by the National Board of Cen sorship for six years and now tytll Hays is being paid (109.000 a year to see that the hero takes the cor rect kind of a strangle hold on the heroine when he implants the seal ing kiss in the final reel. It is highly probable If luVerc possible to analyze results, that the scenario of today teaches a greater moral lesson and has a more inspir ing, uplifting and convincing influ ence on the younger generation than all the pulpits hi the country. In every picture right triumphs over wrong; love triumphs over hate; good triumphs over had, and for giveness and kindliness emerge vic tors over revenge and viciousness Surely such a statement cannot, be challenged, and surely virtue is not sneered at on (he screen; rather vir tue is always vindicated and glori tied Dishop Carroll didn't have much to do when he went out of his way to lake a kick at. the moving picture industry.

The house has been in difficulties, having been occupied by a negro family after the Civil war, but now it is to be set aside as a national shrine, as was Mount Vernon. Kenmore is considered one of the finest examples of colonial archh tecture in the country.

Smith I Title Building Dillon, Montana $ r For mun.v yours there was a dispo sition to think of Washington as a good man, hut not a great one. This view prexailed even in this country to a very considerable extent. But It Is no longer held by those who ure best Informed, for Washington's great ness Is now everywhere acknowledged. It would be difficult—perhaps Impossi ble -to point to a more completely rounded character. John l-'iske has shown that he was a great military commander. Of Hie tine duality of Washington's statesmanship there ran lie no question, lie was a patriot with out even Hie suspicion of a taint of jingoism, lie I bought of his country mil as something to lie bragged about, but to lie served. The law of service was. one may al most say, (lie fundamental law of Ihe life of Washinglon.

The first President's moral courage was perhaps his most striking trail He resisled every effort on Ihe part of politicians and people alike to force tlie nation into war with Eng land on the side of revolutionary France.

The English historian says that \rm milder figure ever stood In the forefront of. a nation's life.” Thackeray's tributes to him are fa miliar. Al! w ho have studied the char acter and work of this great imiti agree that there was In him nothing of the self-seeker, nothing even of ain- biibm—except in that noble sense in which ail good men are ambitious.. Much he undoubtedly owed to the char acter with which he was horn, and to his inheritance, but much he also owed to discipline. lie had schooled him self to generosity in victory, patience in defeat, and in that fineness of soul whldk safeguarded him against the blandishments of power.
