Many men who never held or stiuck a drill, or shovsled a ton ot dirt into a alulce box, and wbo can't tell a stull from a stope will speak very learnedly about mines and mining aud frequently throw out a shingle with ths legend "mine expert" lettered upon it. Several years ago these "expette" could be found in nearly every little mining camp lu tlie .torthwest. They •re not so plentiful these latter days. men who in\\est in mines aro more ii uticular in selecting their mine managers than they were in the early mining days, They have learned by dearly bougnt experience, that ''book learning" while all right enough as an equipment, dose not fully prepare a man to assume responsible positions in mine management. Ho must or should have a practical knowledge of mining to acquire tbo full measure of success in his calling. It ia true that fortunes have been made by investors in mines, who never swung a pick or trod a level, but' they employed practical men not theorists, to manage the underground part of the business. If the whole truth were known it would transpire that the great bulk of the mining failures is directly chargeable to ignorance—to the failure of theories to answer expectations raised. Any theory baaed upon the working of a mine or group of mines, may prove baseless vlii'ii applied to a different formation. Mother earth was uot built upon any given plan or rule. She is full of freaks, and theorists never take freaks into consideration. The practical miner meets Hnd surmounts them and goes about his business until he finds something elee unusual to tsx bis resources, The thoorh t may build a theory from what he saw, but it dies "a bornin" for lie never finds a condition to fit it. Practical miners know when they meet changed conditions of the earth in shaite or in levels, but ihey can't say whether they will mnke or break by pursuing the change. A theory is often followed to financial rain; a practical man iollows only what is in tdftht, Theory and practlue in mining "ever trot in the same class.-Weelern •"Wou \\Vqt\\d, r■t***^t%*-^sl)**.«.t'**H)t*}m*t>'imt . trip (rom here loaded with dynamite for Camp Mansfield.

Andrew Clyde is preparing to develop the l'-iinn Girl und Crown Point nbout six miles enst of Republic. The shaft on the Knob Hill Is down 18 feet. In it is four feet of quartz going an average of $28 per ton. Workmen are engaged in excavating for the purpose of making room for the whim on the Hit or Miss. i There is more quartz in sight, in the Black Tail Hum in any other claim in cnmp save the Republic and Mountain Lion. The shaft on the San Junn is reported to be. 80 feet ln depth. The ore looks well but Its value ls a mutter of conjecture. On the Quilp work is continued steadily em the jvinze and the ore maintains its solid character and there is no change in valnes. In tbeSun Poil the face of the drift •was full of high grade ore. From tlie point where first encountered this rich ore has been penetrated about 10 feet.

True Economy The difference of cost between a good and a poor baking pow= der would not amount for a fam= ily's supply to one dollar a year.

In fact, it is more economical in the end, because it goes further in leavening and never spoils the food. Royal Baking Powder used always in making the biscuit and cake saves both health and money.

The hoed push of the Silver-Lead Minea Association show their colors admirably in the way they did the annual assessment work oo several ol their claims in tins district during the last week or two. It shows that these would-be dictators of British Columbian law are determined to down the miners of this section even at their own personal lobs and that a few dollars expended by them for this purpose is considered welt spent. These leader* in the cry of malicious legislation, are themselves acting maliciously aud spitefully toward the Slocan. miner. A man of ordinary sense will not eu- rich the treasury of the province by 1100. rather tbau do au assessmeut work on a mineral claim.

Roderick Robertson, George Hughes and other.*. among tbe mine owners are paying into the Provincial treasury sums of one hundred dollars in lieu of having those amounts of assessment works done. These are the men who are trying to starve the Canadian workingmen out of their own land ai.d force them to seek employment in the mines of a foreign country or be peoned for the privilege of living and working in their native land. And yet these men, headed by this man Robertson, have the effrontery to ask the business men of the Kootenays to sap- port them in their efforts to peonixo tbe workingmen and override the law of the land. Tbe acts of such men as these should be remembered Any measure asked for by theae meu ahould be fought and combat ted by Labor as it will doubtless Im some cunningly devised scheme to provide a weapon to be used against it manager* to secure good miners will soon begin. If they are not able to get a full crew of skilled miners tboy have themselves to blame for driving soini* of out best boys away. But if ihey make their peace with the unions, good miners will 60on Hook in. The conduct of tho Slocan miners during the preseut strike has been such ___. to (*ommaiid the respect of our business community. Although they have been insulted by the presn of the mine owners, aud have been ticcu-ed of all kinds of crimes by this ..11 me crowd. They bave tieated it with the silent contempt it deserved and have gone along attending to their own business. We are proud to know that We have so many good citizens in our community and only hope that when our population increases that tbe new influx will lie made up of as good material as these same miners.
