General Trade Conditions.

Duns Review says: Prompt and
effective action by the government, in
cooperation with leading representa-
tives of American business, is stead
lily making for the restoration of more
normal conditions in the foreign
trade. There is nothing either un-
sound or unpromising in the domestic
trade and crop situation, all the dis
turbance now experienced in the mar
ket being due to the interruption of
foreign commerce and the suspension
of the usual foreign exchange trans
actions caused by the European war
With the reopening of our foreign
trade on a liberal scale there should
be a return to full normal prosperity
in American business.
Failures this week in the United
States were SAG, against PAT last year
in Canada SO, against 80 last year."

HAINES LEADS IN
IDAHO PRIMARIES
Early Figures Show Brady For U. S.
Senate-Hawley Likely to Lead
Democrats in Senate Contest
Alexander for Governor.

In the state primaries held Tuesday
in Idaho to nominate the party choices
for United States senator, two repre-
sentatives in the lower house and a
state ticket scattering returns show
that Governor John M. Haines is in the
lead for the republican nomination for
governor. He has 2743 first and second
choice votes to 214S for Lewis.
The returns for all candidates in
hand include the most populous coun-
ties in north and south Idaho, but are
necessarily very incomplete.
For United States senator, republic
an, Senator James H. Brady has a to-
tai of more than 1900 votes to about
1900 each for French and Gooding.
Addison G. Smith, republican aspir-
ant for congressman, seems certain of
denomination, while r. o. Jones is in
the running for the other congress
sional nomination.
George R. Barker of Standpoint, re-
publican candidate for the nomina-
ton for attorney general, and H. H.
Taylor, for lieutenant governor, are
running strong. Byron F. Defenbach,
republican, for treasurer, appears to
have fighting chance, although fig
ures are too indefinite to make any
serious estimate.

ANACONDA OFFICE BLOWN UP
Company offers $4,000 Reward for
Arrest of Dynamiters or information
Miners Defiant-Troops' Move
ments Kept Secret.

Butte, Mont, Aug. 3O.-The employ
ment office of the Anaconda company
was blown up at 1870 o'clock this
morning with blast of dynamite that
Jared all the buildings in Butte and
rocked residences on the outskirts of
the city.
The structure was of brick and two
stories high. One side was complete
ly blown out and hole torn through
the top large enough to admit a street
car.
The Anaconda company had in
stalled the rustling card system
whereby miners, before they were per-
mitted to apply for work had to pos
.sess a "rustling" card and to central
ize the system, the office issuing these
cards for the mines of the Anaconda
company was established at the Par
rot mine. The system aroused oppo-
sition among the miners.
The mine company has offered $780,
600 reward for the arrest of the dyna-
miters, or for information which will
lead to their apprehension.
Mines Under Guard
Mines of the Anaconda Copper Mi
ming company and the other large
companies operating in this district
tonight are under armed guard.
News of Governor Samuel V. Stew
arts order mobilizing the state troops
for duty has been withheld from the
local public for fear the miners will
attempt reprisals. The miners have
heard rumors that the troops are com
ing, but do not credit the report They
believe that Governor Stewart will
not dare to send a small force as 600
militiamen against the miners, who
number, according TO the roster of the
Butte Mine Workers union, 5000. Be
sides the miners, it is said, that out

The troops are expected to arrive

Miners Threaten Town.

Miners Threaten Town.
Butte, Mont, Aug. 31.-Miners are
openly making threats tonight that
they will lay the town in ashes if
troops attempt to enter, regardless of
whether the soldiers are state or fed
eral.
Radical speeches were made at TO-
nights meeting of the Butte mine
workers, one speaker declaring that
the miners should not fight the militia,
as "a match was more powerful than
standing up and shooting at soldiers
with rifles and being shot"
Others declared that if the troops
come the city will be fired in 100
places and the ashes left for the mill
tia
Several miners said that for some
time the men had been squeezing nj
troglycerin out of the dynamite being
used in the mines.
Up to today the bulk of the miners
did not credit the reports that the
militia was being modified, as the To-
cal newspapers were Withholding the
news on request of business men. A
Helena newspaper editor, however,
this morning brought an automobile
load of newspapers to Butte for sale
and newsboys soon began crying news
regarding the mobilization.
Ten Companies at Helena.
Helena, Aug. 31.-Ten companies of
the Montana National Guard have ar
rived in Helena and are now mobil-
lied ready for any call for service the
governor may make as a result of
conditions in Butte.
Soldiers in Control.
Butte, Mont, Sept. butte is un-
der martial law tonight. A proclama-
ton issued by Governor Samuel V.
Stewart proclaims that the militia is
in control of Solver Bow county, and
he calls upon all citizens to observe
the law.
The city is patrolled by the Montana
National Guard of 600 men, with two
machine gun platoons, whose equip
ment consists of four gatlings and two
Maxims.
Thus far there has been no evidence
of any intention of the miners to carry
out their threats of Wholesale firing
of the city upon the entry of the mil
tia. Apparently the presence of the
soldiers has had a quieting effect

and then we find him as tenderly
eager and ready to receive us as II
there were no sin stains upon us at

to know the truth of what he said
when he wrote that "the long-suffer-

would be no salvation without Gods
long-suffering. II through 1t we have
been saved, are we letting his patient
salvation outwork through us, by
showing forth his own patience our
selves toward his other children?

book when properly used OF course
it will be dull if stupidity read and
seem dull If not read at all. II
we read our daily papers and maya
zines as many people read their b.

would be insufferable. One Of the
lessons the current world needs to
learn is that the Bible is above all
other things interesting.
1t Is an error also to suppose that
it saves men from thinking by ex-
plicit directions which one can follow
without thinking 1t would be a poor
guide for human life if it did this.
1t is not book of rules and regula-

book Of living principles and vital at

who keep their eyes shut but those
who keep them open. 1t helps the

more than the thoughtless who do
not.
1t is an error also to suppose that
