Possible Source of Potash.

Following Secretary Lanes instrue.
tions to put special effort into its pot.
ash Investigations. the United States
Geological Survey is publishing The
suggestion that a possible source d
potash may exist in the tailings piled
up at the concentrating mills of The
big copper mines in the West The
'porphyry" ores which are being
mined by the millions of tons annually
contain several times as much potash
as copper, and this remains in the
tailings at the mills, material ALREADY
finely ground and in condition for
treatment, as we'll as easily accessible
for shipment. This potash, however
is locked UP In the form Of silcats
minerals. and the commercial eytrac-
ton of potash from silicates has been
for several years the subject Of earnest
study by industrial chemists. If this
problem can be solved. it would appear
that a large tonnage of potash-be bearing
material is available in the Western
States.

ed Kingdom Lord Derby, director OF
recruiting, says the recruiting campaign

United Kingdom between the ages OF Il

The appeal concludes by urging every
eligible man to join the army land show
his country that he puts her interests be

hundreds of thousands of her citizens

The joint labor recruiting committee
also has issued an appeal to "the free
men of Great Britain to Justify the
faith of the nation in the voluntary sys
tenn and enroll themselves at once in the
great volunteer army which stands be
tween us and the loss of our rights ane

No figures concerning the recruits thu:

BRITAIN NOT READY TO listen
TO PEACE PLANS AS ADVOCATES
TRY TO IMPRESS THE POPULACE

london. Nov 23.--t Correspondence of
The Associated Press). - Speculation
about the possibility of peace. talk that
seems to come from Switzerland. Rome
Madrid America. always vague and
unusually negative. strikes no respon-
sive chord in London. The more the
fortunes of war appear to turn against
the allies, the less the British seem in
clined to listen with patience to any
suggestion that peace can come through
other means than military achievement.
When Charles Trevelyan in the House
of Commons, this week. ventured to
express the view that there is nothing
inherently disgraceful or humiliating
in obtaining by negotiation rather than
by fighting, the aims "for which we are
fighting" and urged the government to
inform the House if any proposals of
peace came either from neutrals or bel
ligerents, he was but repeating opin-
ions which led his distinguished and
scholarly father to withdraw from the
cabinet with Lord Morley and John
Burns when war was declared. More
over, his statement that termination of
the war by negotiation would give a
greater guarantee of permanent peace
because less hatred would be engender-
ed served to emphasize the spirit of
the House and the people at large. Bo-
mar Law said it was folly to pretend
to believe that Germany would give up
Belgium, Poland and Alsace-he might
have added Serbia-until she was beat

me usual course is TO Indicate TO the
mead of the embassy, in this case
Count Won Bernstorff, that the offend
ihs attache is persona non grata, and
nothing remains for the ambassador
out to sever his connection with the
embassy.
l. Need Not Leave Country
Captain Boy-Ed would not neceSSa-
rliy need leave the country. although
II Is expected he probably would, and
the countries to which he might go
under existing circumstances are linn
tied virtually to Mexico, Cuba, South
america, or the Dutch West Indies,
and he might have difficulty in get
ting that far since it is doubted that
the allied governments would agree to
a safe conduct.
The German naval attache would be
the second foreign diplomatic officer to
ind himself in difficulties because Of
MS conduct in the United States since
the war began. The first was DR.. Con-
stantin Dumba, the ambassador from
Austria Hungary, whose recall Presi-
dent Wilson asked because of his con-
nection with plans to cripple American
munitions plants.
The Only Official
Testimony at the Hamburg-Ameri-
can trial was to the effect that Cap
tain Boy-Ed had furnished the money
whereby conspiracy was conducted
by agents of the Hamburg American
Line to obtain clearance for - ships
TO provision German warships. No
other official in the United States was
brought ill.,
During the trial it was said that
Count Won Bernstorff, the German am
passador, would file protest with the
state department regarding the bring
ing in of the name of Captain Boy
Ed Whether one has been filed was
not known today.

Chamber. the Russian Duma or the

closed with the announcement of a third
member that Mr.. Trevelyans constitu-
ents in Yorkshire had already selected
another Liberal for his seat. as they
could not tolerate his opinions.
All observers agree that the peace
advocates in Great Britain have dwind-
led in numbers. The labor element that
at one time was inclined to be lukewarm
in the support of the war. is now credit
ed with being among it's most outspoken
adherents, labor leaders having thrown
themselves eagerly into backing Lord
Derby in his recruiting campaign
1t is admitted on every hand that
the fortunes of war az present do not
favor the allies. The IjardanelIes cam
paign, particularly the landing at Suy-
la Bay. is tremendous disappointment
the advance at Loos has been followed
by general belief that as at Neuye
Chapelle a brilliant opportunity to make
the most of promising opening was
lost; the virtual loss of the Serbian
territory and the precarious position
of the army that landed at Salonilsi
are not under-estimated; the attitude of
Greece and Rumania, the Disbursements
in the cabinet and other disturbing fac
tors contribute to a general apprecia-
ton that things are not going we'll, as
Mr.. Churchill expressed it in his apolo-
gies. Still, the British are not dismay-
ed and the universal belief is that any
chancellory which sounded Downing
street on the possibility of peace would
find no welcome

day" was very much enjoyed.
Rev Ernest NJ. Holman Of the Fair
field Baptist church was present and
responded to a request to give a few
remarks. He said the most charming
thing is to have a good time AS the
days grow older let the spirit grow

Benton Grange Master to do so. He
said the Grange was trying to bring
about practically the same thing as the
church in many lines. Mr.. Stetson
said he wanted to commend Mr.. Hol-
man in his complimentary remarks of
the Grange. Mr.. Stetson told of his
efforts four years ago made among the
members of the Legislature to place
before them the Oranges proposition
of the distribution OF the school fund.
One man had figured it out that he
could not vote for that proposition as
his town would lose ten dollars. Mr..
Stetson expressed his admiration of the
new Grange hail.
The afternoons program was closed
by all singing America
The time between the close of the
afternoon program and supper time was
passed in general social manner.
A fine Harvest supper was served
from $50 to Z o'clock.

Fairfield, Me, Dec. 3.-fSpeciaD.-
The new Grange hall at Benton was
dedicated Friday. The doors were
opened shortly after noon. At 2.45 P.
M. the afternoon program was started.
Master Leforest f. Prentiss of Ben
ton gave a few opening remarks in ex-
PLANTATION of the afternoon exercises.
He explained that exercises would be
held in the afternoon, supper would
be served and that the dedication ex-
ercises would take place in the eve
ming.
The opening song by the chorus of
the Grange was, THE Grange is
Marching On" Mrs. Reuben Went
worth as pianist. Then w. J. Thomp-
son Of South China, formerly State
lecturer, and prominent in State. Po-
mona and local Grange, was introduced
tos give few remarks.
Remarks by Mr.. Thompson:
Architecture is the expression of a
peoples religion" was the saying by
Ruskin Of which Mr.. Thompson was
reminded each time upon visiting a
new Grange hall. He said that by that
was not meant the belief which was
expressed one day out of seven, but
that the style and the make of the
new home shows the underlying char
acteristics Of the people who inhabit
it. The Grange hall of 80 years ago
was altogether different from the new
Grange hall OF today. The architecture
of the building of years ago expressed
general durability and economy. Now
the new building expresses something
different in that comforts are added to
the plan of the building that would not
oc absolutely necessary. The largeness
of the building expresses the desire
to have company, to have visitors and
extend the hand of hospitality. The
beauty of the outside of the building
is an asset to the community. There
is largeness expressed now in the
basic principal of life that you must
know your neighbor to succeed To
know Your neighbor you may acquire
what he knows and may become as
wise as he. The Grange expresses the
desire for sociability by making a
large nome. III N1ldI Is NoIe may ne
seen the real inner motive of the life
Of the Grange. There ought to be in
the Grange: Bettermcnt of the COM
nhunity: pleasure and enjoyment that
We derive from the Grange; the profit
for the member.
Does the Grange contribute in any
Of these three things? Is the Grange
lettering the community? Is it a social
center? And does the member of the
Grange profit in a financial sense:
1t was through the methods sug-
eested in the Grange, stated Mr.
Thompson. that he was afforded some
of the best profits in his farm work
Nothing like having an excuse for
living" The building of the new hail
and the process OF paying for the new
hall are great assets in the sociability
Of the Grange. Getting together and
planning for ALI This is good for the
Grange.
