Show THE CITIZEN 10 many old western mines that were valueless under old, expensive processes. At Cripple Creek, Colorado, ores are being: handled, freight and all, for $2.50 a ton. These figures are for e' ores. Metallurgy offers a fascinating field for the engineer, as well as for the investor who will follow its lead. Some mines have wasted ore up to $20 or even $50 a ton, Decause it could not be handled by the older, cruder methods. Now these ores are real bonanzas. Mining and metallurgy offer a careee for thousands of ambitious young men and the mills they will build and operate will furnish markets for thousands of farms that now wonder where they will sell their State of Utah, particularly described for another revision of Europes war as follows, a 151.8 in spirit, the golden poppy furnishing the motif.

But it was many thousands of years ago, when some primitive man found that he could produce a flash and with it set fire to various sub stances. It was years after that before it was generally understood that this newly discovered agent was valuable for keeping caves warm, and furnishing light, and, most important, for 'cooking meat, wild fruits and vegetables. Something had been discovered that marked a turning point. But from before the Stone Age to barely over a century ago no great Improvement was made in the use of fire. However, as far back as 1858, English scientists had noticed, with varying degrees of interest, peculiar and apparently inexplicable streams of inflammable air that issued from the mouths of mines in the coal district. And then in 1792. William Murdoch constructed apparatus by which gas was distilled from coal and used to light his home and offices in Redruth. Another great turning point had come in the world. From then on the evolution of fire continued until today manufactured as well as natural gas, wherever obtainable, is becoming the ac- cepted fuel in homes and industrial plants, because of efficiency and ROLLER BEARING DINERS Equipped with the first roller bearings to be used by any Pacific Coast steel dining railroad, six new cars costing approximately $60,000 each, will be placed in service by Southern Pacific during December, according to F. W. Mahl, general purchasing agent for the company. The new cars, Mahl said, are the finest and most costly yet built for service in the West. As a trial of desirability of roller bearings under the conditions of western railroad travel, we are employing three different types of bearings, each type being fitted to two cars. We are trying out the roller bearing thoroughly, in order to assure continuance of western leadership in travel comfort and safety. . Finished throughout in Cuban mahogany, the interior decorations of the new cars will be typically western PUBLIC OWNED ROADS railroads are publicly owned. Figures compiled from the official reports of the Interstate ComAmerican merce Commission show that on December 31, 1925, there were 868,601 holders of the capital stock of all steam railways in the United States, the par value of which was $9,621,-780,06- 9. These figures take no account of the million or more of railroad bondholders, scattered all over the United States, whose interest in the financial success of the railroads is equally as great as that of the stockholders. Insurance companies and savings banks are particularly large owners of railroad securities. This means that the holders and beneficiaries of more than 17,000,000 life insurance policies, the holders and beneficiaries of over 54,000,000 industrial insurance policies, and the 46,000,000 savings bank depositors also are financially interested in the successful operation of the railroads. At least one dollar out of every five included in insurance and savings accounts is protected by railroad investment. Almost of the endowments of our colleges and universities are invested in railroad securi- debts. They do not expect action until after the presidential election. In the meantime, through the newspapers and propaganda agencies they control, they are preparing the ground, both in this country and in Europe. If they, have their way, Germanys payments under the Dawes plan will not be permitted to interfere in any way with commercial loans, Great Britain will have its debt to this country still further reduced and France will be given more generous terms. It is a naked business proposition with the bankers. They want to float more loans and to collect interest on those already negotiated. They are willing to have the allies be easy with Germany and to have Uncle Sam waive part or all of his claims, because every dollar they can shave off in that way will improve their chances of realizing on their own deals. There is no suggestion that they will yield any part of their pound of flesh. Their altruism is confined entirely to the public purse. Some business interests are beginning to object to the bankers program. They say that Europe is using American money to build up its industries and to take foreign markets from American concerns. feet east Commencing at point of the Northwest corner of Lot 9, Block 18, Ten Acre Plat A, Big Field Survey, and Tunning thence east 303.6 feet; thence South 17.4 rods; thence West 803.6 feet; thence North 17.4 rods to the place of beginning.

SHERIFFS SALE one-thi- rd ties. Thus the money received by the railroads each year again returns directly or indirectly to practically every responsible person in the United States. On account of ownership of the railroads by the people, the effects of constructive public regulation are felt not by any small group, but by persons in every walk of life. Sound regulation recognizes that adequate investment of the peoples savings in railroad facilities must be encouraged; that rates must be relatively stable; that they must be fair to the investor as well as to the shipper; and that the least amount of regulation consistent with protection of the public interest is the best. NEW COAL FIELD The Gillette coal field, in northeastern Wyoming, contains over 14 billion tons of coal in workable seams, according to a report recently issued by the Geological Survey, Department The of the Interior, as Bulletin 796-huge tonnage of this single coal field may be compared to the total amount of coal mined to date from all the coal mines in the United States tons. Two of the Gillette coal beds are together 75 feet thick. A. 000 LABORS VIEW.
