IDAHO'S HUMILIATION
(Nampa Leader Herald)

II Idaho Is not ashamed Of the part
1t is playing it ought to be, With a
great show of virtue few years ago
1t passed an anti-pass law This was
to prevent any possible corrupting Of
the people and their public servants
by the railroads. Such law might
have been we'll enough so far as 1t
would apply to public officials or dele
gates to any political convention but
beyond that 1t was asinine. Coloni-
zatlon agents and many others engag-
ed in the development of the state
were assisted by the railroad compan-
les by being furnished transportation
There were in Idaho several hundred
men devoting their whole time to
bringing settlers to the state. They
were of course working primarily for
themselves, but incidentally for the
good Of the whole state Their work
resulted in bringing thousands of
people to the state each year. It
meant good to the state, good to the
transportation companies, good to
themselves and injured nobody What
possible objection could there be to
the railroads joining in this work by
furnishing passes to those engaged in
it? To the great harm of the state
this was all cut out
Now comes the state through it's
officers and asks the railroad compan-
les to furnish free transportation to
state officers, the people who ought
not to have it, and the companies have
to some extent granted the request.
1t is humiliating. Think Of a great
state standing with hat in hand beg
glng for privileges for its officers not
granted to any other citizen, The in
dividual officials who have such passes
are not justly subject to any criticism
for they can not properly attend to
their duties without them. The leg
islature, anticipating that the rail-
roads would stand to be mulcted, cut
down departmental travelling allow
ances to point where the work could
not be done with any measure Of eff

cheney without outside aid.
Though the companies pay
their taxes Cor If not they should
be compelled to do SOY they are
held up and at the point Of the
legislative gun forced to con.
tribute to the support of the
state government.
Nor is this the only thing that
should cause the decent citizen to
blush with shame for the part his
state is playing. Last year was one in
which the fire menace to the states
great timber holdings was great. The
extremely dry fall with high winds
for weeks threatened great destruc-
ton Of valuable timber. BY heroic
efforts the state was saved from any
great loss. The cost, however, much
exceeded the appropriation made by
the state, The fire fighters had to be
paid. Private owners stepped into the
breach and paid some $4,000 to pro-
tect the states holdings. When the
legislature proposed to reimburse the
people for the cash advanced, the gov
ernor in the interest of economy re-
pudiated the obligation.
1t was then decided that the money
appropriated for fire protection for
the years 1915 and 1916 could be used
to liquldate the Indebtedness and II
was so used, leaving not a cent for
1915 and 1915
We are now approaching the season
of the year when fire protection must
be had II the state is not to lose, per-
haps millions Of dollars and again
comes the state with hat in hand beg
ging the private timber owners to
advance the necessary money. Since
the companies can not protect their
own timber without protecting ada
cent state timber they are compelled
to grant the states appeal and take a
chance as they did before on getting
their money back. They are, there
fore, coming forward with the money,
but It may be guessed without fear OF
guessing wrong, that at heart they are
not cheerful about II.

ROLL BIG ZINC MINE MAKES
NEW HIGH RECORD.
(Anaconda standard)

The month of July at both the
Blackjack mine and the Butte & SUI
perior mill was record breaker In
the output of ore and concentrates. II
was also the biggest month that the
company has ever had in the shape OF
payrolls The checks for the miners
and other employees will be ready in a
day or two for disbursement and will
total $4,000 approximately
While the definite figures on pro-
duction of zinc will not be ready fol
several days, II is stated that the out
put in tons of ore of the Black Rock
during the month of July was about
$4,000 TONS which made an average
OF about 1900 tons per day for the SO
working days of the month.
The production of concentrates was
over $4,000 tons and the percentage
of recoveries ran higher than former
ly. 1t will be better than 92 per cent
The mill is running in splendid shape
now and the returns are very salts
factory considering the high price OF

100000 Pounds of Zinc.
The total amount Of zinc produced
was between 100000 pounds and
100000 pounds.
The company is still selling large
amount Of spelter at the rate of /;
cents per pound under the contract
made in the spring, covering a period
Of FIVE months. This contract price
however only applied to part of tn,
output of the company.
During the first three months of this
year the tonnage was 1876 tons OF
an average of $4,000 tons per month
The average rate maintained in July
indicates that the tonnage for thu
present quarter barring accidents II
August and September will be close t.
100000 tons or an increase over tn,
first quarter of this year of over Il
per cent.
Makes High Recovery.
The percentage of zinc recovered II
the first quarter of the year was 91.31s
The present rate of recovery is nearl.
per cent better than that.

Reports in circulation that metal
lurgists of the Anaconda Copper Min

strides in their experiments in con-

from iron are given considerable
weight in local mining circles, because
of the Anaconda's activity In acquir-

of the biggest purely silver zinc

much zinc obtains as to render the
ore too low grade as general propo-
sition for its marketing for the silver
