RESPONSIBILITY
OF NEWSPAPERS
Rabbi Wise Shows That
The Press Should
Be Honest
Dr. Stepheu S. Wine, the noted
Jewlnh labbi, of Nw York in discun-
Mi'g the puhllc pienn iu the I'aelUc :
monthly for Aiiril, waken the follow
ii.g telling point, which happily for
tin' futurn ut'llaro of the nation, uow 1
seems tu be tin moving spiiit aud
hue of actlou among tbe bet papers
ot the laud, great and namll. He t.ay :
The prenn in uot to be a mere echo,
nor even i'ormulutot, of public opin
iou. The prens ought to inform, and
ia
thus form, the public mind and the
ho c nncience. The rest la the
daily teacher of the whole oatiou,
men and womeu, yonug and old. Ibe
(press in tbe people a university that

a vacation. Stoutly ought the press
to resist tne epreadiug notion that
the uewspuptr is to be a mere pur
veyor of newa rather thau a brioger
of intelligence that it is its sole busi
ness to be collector aud d'aseminator
of news. Such as would limit tbe
press to news-gathering and restrict
the pulpit to tbe prescbiug of the
''simple gospel' would reduce the
press to futility ana impotence, even
as they would luhit.it the pulpit from
dealing with auv personage mote re
cent than Heekiah or any event leni
remote than the Fall of Jerusalem.
That the press may greateu its
j nu) ral power, I v oul l adjure tbe lad
' ern in the newnpatuT world to free
i themselves fiom tho e 'slavement ol
I partisanship and sectionalism, from
the tyranny of passion and prejudice.
Above all, the press must be kept
free from the enslaving power of
mouey.
It may be urged that it takes a
great deal nf mouey to conduct a
modem newspaper It takes a great
deal nf mouey to conduct a modern
uuiverasity. It takes a grsat deal of
mouey to conduct a modern cburcb,
and still church and uuirersity are not
busiuesnee aud are uot named, as the
newspaper commonly is, "a pro
erty." Tbcugb lare euma be legit
imately ueedful to the conduct of a
newspaper iu our day, still must tbe
press say to the power of mouey,
"Thus far ebalt thou go, and uo
further: thou ebalt not dollarize my
soul."
How to Select Fish.
Fili to be enjoyed must be fresh,
and for tills reason tbe housewife
should know how to choose a good fish,
la the first place the flesh must be so
firm that It will not be dented by pres
sure with the lingers. Tbe eyes must
be full, the scales bright and tbe fina
stiff. Tbe Kills should be bright lu
color, being neither dark liver color
nor too pale. If there Is no odor tbe
fish may be eaten with safety.

In addition to what is being none

that in less than three years, with
out a dollar to start with, they have
purchased tbeir lot, auu erected the

tbe same paid for, wiib a surplus iu

Tbe ladies intend now to add some
new book; to tbe shelves, aud thereby
make the Library a center of itill
greater interest for our townspeople

Congressman Hawley for his Bubaert
ieucy to that iudivldual. It will take

republicans wbo bave stood for the

GOLDBERG MINES
ARE OPENING UP
SOME VERY
RICH ORE
Both the Jumbo and
Butte Have Big Free
Milling Gold
Ledges
Tbe Gol It erg uintric.t in getting la
shape to spring a big Btiroriae on the
mining wnrM coe of these days ac
cording o A O. Kelley, an experi
enced mining man, who wa in towa
yesterday.
In commenting on tbe prospects
over there he said :
"We are going ahead wKb oor'de
velopmnt work in an unostentatious
way. We are not sounding cymbals,
but are opening up our gonad last
as fast as oar limited m-ans will per
mit and the showing todav is ;far bet
ter than GoldrJeld could exibbit at
same stage ot devepoment Indeed,
bo far as surface showings go, we out
class either Gold field or Tonopab,
and our known mineralized area is
fully as etxeusi7e as either of those
two well known camps.
4 "Except in mete prospect location
work, the main work of the camp is
confined tu two groups of claims the
Butte in the Jumbo, in which J.J.
Keily tbe man wbo niae millions out
of toe famous Goldfleld Florance is
the main stay.
"Both properties are looking un
exceptioually well, and present work
ings in each show them to bave tbe
ear-marks of making a mine ot tbe
Qrst class.
"On the Jumbo, the shaft is now
down 85 feet. t,very foot of tbe bot
tom is in solid ore. From tbe bottom
across-cut tunnel has been driven 30
feet, all in solid ore, and tbe breast
of tbe tunnel is still in ore. Tbe re
markable thing about this immense
ore body is that it is all of tbe nuest
free-milling gold ore ever Been by Mr.
Kelley. He ban personally made care
ful sampling of this vast ore body,
and after eliminating all tbe rich
seams, has got a return of ill gold
per ton 1 This is something astonish
ing, and if mill-tests produce the
same results, it places tbe Jumbo in a
class by itself, above tbe Homsatake,
aui other big free-nilliug mines!
"Tbe Butte, too, is in a class by it
self. The cross cut tunnel driven
60in s oOO feet to tap tbe rich vein that
appeared on tbe surface .cut it at a
depth of 221 feet beneath tbe apex.
Tbe vein at that depth showed four
feet of $03 ore, and also oue foot of
197, both free-milling gold I
"I want you to understand thesi
values are not bear say nor bave tbey
come to me as second band as 1 care
fully selected tbe ore, and made the
assays myself.
"The fajt of tbe matter is these two
properties will give Lake county a
place on tbe mining map. to say
nothing of tbe other pioperties there
with tbe ear marks of mines , but on
which no development work has been
done, and some day not far off tbe
skeptical will be telliug what a good
chance they bad for investments
in these minss, l.ut missed the op
portunity." DOING BUSINESS AT
