WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.—The short
session of the Sixty-Fourth congress
is on the last lap of a whirlwind race.
Following is a review on what has
been accomplished and something of
what remaiy to be done.
These, measured by public interest,
are the most important legislative
tasks accomplished by the Sixty
Fourth congress:
The army and navy bills carrying
appropriations of gigantic sums, a
long step towards preparedness.
Establishment of federal reserve
banks to eliminate danger of financial
panics.
Purchase of Danish West Indies at
a cost of $25,000,000, another stride
towards preparedness.
Federal farm loan ac>,, of great in
terest to farmers and intended to aid
them in securing necessary capital at
a fair rate of interest.
Federal good roads law, provides
$75,000,000 to be used in improving
national highways.
Federal trade commission, a “go
between” in matters between the pub
lis and corporations.
Workmen’s compensation; ship pur
chase act, a movement toward a real
merchant marine. Child labor law.
Railway legislation looms up as the
biggest piece of unfinished business.
Strenuous efforts are being made to
rush the railway program through
during the present short session of
congress.
The corrupt practices bill, providing
for publicity of campaign funds, is
another important bill up for a speedy
consideration.
The judgeship bill, which would re
lieve from service judges reaching the
age of 70 after ten years’ service,
and who by reason of physical disa
bility are unable properly to discharge
their duties, also is set for early
hearing.
The fate of the immigration bill,
with the literacy test attached, which
was recently passed by the senate, is
hard to predict. President Wilson
vetoed a similar bill. It is rumored
an effort will be made to pass the
bill over any possible veto.
Woman 'suffrage and national pro
hibition have been reported by the
house committee, but it is impossible
to say when either bill will reach
a vote.
Other important measures due for
early consideration are: The water
power bill having to do with the leas
ing of power-sites on inland water
ways; the flood-prevention bill, car
rying appropriations of millions for
flood prevention along the Mississippi
and Sacramento rivers, and the Webb
export bill, which would permit the
combination of American exporters
for participation in foreign trade in
an effort to meet competition at the
end of European hostilities.
The iine-up of republicans and dem
ocrats in the senate will be slightly
altered in the 66th congress, demo
crats losing one and reducing their
working majority to 13.
The line-up of the house is still in
doubt. The result of the fight being
made in North Carolina by Britt, re
publican, and Weaver, democrat, may
decide the question of the majority in
the lower branch of congress.

PUBLIC STILL WILLING
TO BITE ON FAKE MINES
(Boston Commercial Bulletin)
These are prosperous days for the
unscrupulous mining promoter. With
copper, zinc, lead and other metals
selling at prices which enable any
thing entitled to the name of a mine
to ‘pay dividends of unprecedented
amount, it is the easiest thing in the
world to excite the public’s imagina
tion wtih respect to the possibilities
of almost any kind of mining enter
prise and to separate the person of
small means from his hard-earned
savings.
The commonest method of approach
to the public is through the advertis
ing columns of newspapers. “Buy
now before the stock is listed,” reads
one advertisement. “Do not wait, be
cause the price is going to be ad
vanced 10, 25 or 50 cents a share after
such and such a date,” reads another.,
“Latest advices,” declares a third,
“announce a big strike of bonanza
ore.” “So and so, the famous mining
engineer,” read still another, “wires
that the future of our property is as
sured.” Sometimes a map shows the
alleged strike and the contiguity of
the property to the mine of some re
putable corporation. The photograph
of men engaged in actual mining is
frequently resorted to. And the pub
lic—well, they simply “fall for it” in
droves.
It is probably no exaggeration to
say that at least 25 to 50 per cent of
this kind of thing is inspired by out
and out crookedness, and that the
greater part of the remainder, though
free, perhaps from the taint of dis
honesty, has its roots in the ignor
ance and ill-founded enthusiasm of
prospectors and promoters. If more
than two or three out of every fifty
new mining enterprises whose secuiv

The Darcy Mill Is designed to meet the need or the mine owner and
prospector who wants to develop his own mine or open up ore bodies with
a view of disposing of the property, to work rich stringers of pav ere
to mill and ship concentrates or to try out a property before purchasing
—at as low a cost as possible.
It is not a toy mill or a makeshift in any way but a mill constructed
on scientific principles and equal in efficiency us any stamp of the same
weight. The 2000 pound mill has two stamps of 32fi pounds each and drop
at 110 blows per minute for each stamp. The number of blows and the
force of the drop can be increased very easily by placing springs on the
stamp stems or the weight of the blow be increased witli additional
weights, which we furnish when necessary.
It occupies a space 4x4 feet; no piece weighs over 100 pounds, and is
easy to move, pack, or set up, and uses less power and less repairs than
any other. The frame, battery blocks, etc., are made of Washington fir,
strongly bolted with rods to stand all strains; guides have large wearing
surfaces; in fact the mill is so constructed that any one can handle it
satisfactorily. Shoes and dies are of special hard iron with chilled faces,
screens easily removed—the whole front and back can be removed so as
to get at the shoes and dies. Tappets arranged to clamp on a screw
thread so that the wear can be easily taken up. No expensive machine
work to pay for in repairs, in fact everything about the mill is simple,
compact and durable.
It is the simplest mill to start your mine with, as it is an easy mat
ter to add two or four more stamps or to increase the output by adding
the extra weights without any alterations in the mill.
We can furnish the complete mill or just the iron work, or lease them
to responsible parties if they show us their properties are n K. We can
furnish engines, concentrators, copper plates, rock crushers, jigs, tables,
etc., at market prices.
A vast amount of ore could be put on the market by using one small
mill for coarse crushing and jig the pulp, which will save the coarse
metals and get rid of the lightest, and the middlings recrushed in another
small mil) and this pulp run over concentrators or tables. This pian will
enable a lot of low grade ores to be worked at a profit which it is impos
sible to do in any other way.
Write us if you have such properties or if you wish further particulars.
Yours truly,
I H. J. DARCY,

IT’S A REAL PLEASURE
to view the new wall decorations on
view here exclusively. They are so
unconventional, so out of the common
and so unusually artistically attrac
tive. If you plan to repaper you
should by all means see these new
papers. To decide without doing so
is apt to result in regret later.

ties are publicly advertised-today de
velop into profitable undertakings,
then we may safely abandon th
teachings of experience. For if there
be more than two or three established i
mines today whose securities were ad
vertised in the same bizarre fashion
10 15 or 20 years ago, we can not
readily call to mind their names.
