If the United States should go
to war today there would not be
half enough officers and men to
and man the ships of
our navy. By the end of the
present year ten new ships will
have been placed in commission,
requiring officers and crews to
the number of seven thousand.
There would be no way of sup
plying these ships except the
retiring of retiring others now
in use and in a good state of
efficiency. 1t is expected the
President will have some stir
ring things to say on this sub
ject in his message to Congress
1t is not the vigorous expression
of the German newspaper which
referred to our army and navy
as rotten" that brings up this
question for its Importance has
been for several years recogniz-
ed by those informed on the sub
ject. The average age of the
commanding officers of our fleets
has been found to be fifty eight.
If men of this age had been call
ed upon to perform the duties OF
the commanders of the japanese
navy more than half would prob.
ably have succumbed to the
physical and mental strain. Only
men of youth and vigor could
have endured what these officers
did in the way of privation anC
Exposure and lack of rest. 1t is
up to Congress now to provide
a means of giving the younger
officers command rank unless i
is designed to turn our shops
into homes for the aged. Th'
subject will give the joint com
mittee on naval affairs something
to study over during the mex
session. Congress has it in it
power to declare that no mor'
ships shall be built until officer
and sailors are made but it i
known that one of the desire
nearest the Presidents heart j
to build up the navy so it is pre-
sumed he will strongly urge Cor
gress to provide more officer
and men.

piping and hydraulic fixtures are
already on the ground. There
is no doubt that this will prove
a very remunerative proposition.
Sylvester Bunch and Oliver
Carpenter, of Idaho City, have
been on the Salmon river below
and above the mouth of Yankee
Fork for several months past,
prospecting the river bed and
low bars with the view of going
into the dredge business on a
huge scale if they found the
ground to be of sufficient rich
ness to justify it. The prospects
were so satisfactory that they
located great deal of ground on
the river suitable for dredging
purposes. They also purchased
the Park Springs property of K.
| d. Williams on Robinson Bar at
the mouth of Warm Springs
crack, and intend to make that
very beautiful and finely located
place the headquarters for the
Salmon River Gold Dredge Com
pany. These men are placer
and dredge miners of judgment
and experience, and have money
of their own and plenty behind
them to back their Judgment,
and they will make a great sue
| cess of this new Custer county
enterprise. The Bunch Broth
ers, 1 have understood, made &
couple hundred thousand dollars
from sale of the famous Ox-BoV
bend of the Payette, which is es
tlmated, from actual exploration
and development, to be worth
not less than three million dol
lars.

Not in modern times has there
been a man so popular in the
United States or in the world as
Theodore Roosevelt. Washing
ton and Lincoln are no excep-
tions, but popularity is as tickle
as maid. The crowd that
shouts ''but one God and one
Roosevelt today" may say A
diable Roosevelt" tomorrow. In
his attempt to gag the Cabinet
to the discontinue of the Press
the President is not acting with
his usual candor and courtesy.
The press has been Mr.. Roose-
velt's right hand ally. His most
popular policies have been sug-
gested or defended by the press.
1t is not gracious or polite to
kick away the ladder upon which
he has climbed. There are those
who believe that Mr.. Roosevelt
is misrepresented in his recent
alleged attitude toward the press
and there will be an eclaircisse-
ment showing a more liberal and
Just relation of the President to-
ward journalism on his return
from the South.

Although the Lucky Boy mill
remains statu quo it is not dead,
but only taking a rest. Work
has not been commenced as yet,
on the big tunnel projected to
run from Lucky Boy mill on the
Yankee Fork into the heart of
Custer Mountain; but there is
said to be much head work"
going on among the Captains of
Industry who own the mountain,
or at least the greater portion of
it, and when all arrangements
and plans are fully completed
that are now in contemplation,
the great buzz-saw of Industry
will again be humming the mer-
ry tunes that for so many years
were as sweet music to the ears
of the Yankee Forkers.
This has been a busy season at
the Fork and will continue until
winter sets in; and even then it
lis expected that the road to Loon
creek will be kept open much,
or possibly all of the time, unless
an unusually heavy snowfall
should occur.
Supplies of all kinds for the
Fork country and for Loon creek
needed for the winter and com
ing spring are, in the main, as
yet on the outside, or at least on
the road, including vegetables,
hay, grain, fruits, etc.
The Mt. Estes Development
Co. has the main working tun-
mel in about 900 feet, and are
nearing the point where the tirst
ore vein is expected to be cut
There are many different gold
bearing lodges on Mt. Estes, OF
both Northeast and SouthWes
sides, that the tunnel will strike
. at great depth, some of which
show good ore and others were
worked to the water and were
shippers of rich ores in the past
Mr.. J. A. Czizek is the manage.
of this enterprise, and thus fa'
his general good judgment ha
not failed. He was the promot
er and until recently manager o
the Lost Packer" incorpora
ton, which he developed from
prospect to one of the creates
mines in the country.
Mr.. Czizek is progressive an
believes that if a mine is wort
developing it is worth putting
wagon road to it. Through hi
counsel the Lost Packer" con
pany built the wagon road fror
Jordan creek to Loon creek an
to the Packer" thereby cor
Il Meeting the Yankee Fork cour
try with the Loon creek country
which has been of much benef

were taken.

u great quantities in sight in tt

ed as required, and fine showing

I 1t is understood that the 'Lo
= Packer" ore averages in go
= about FIVE (5) ounces per ton,
few ounces silver and 20 to
per cent copper. According
A. this, (which is probably vel

| THERE is no quest on in the
world today at all commensurate
in Importance to the people of
this country with the question of
the growth and conduct of great

features of the industrial and
commercial evolution of the
times.
{ These great mbinations are
not things to be hunted down

country. These com binations
are part of the industrial and

Its application may not be as ex~
