WASHINGTON, D. c. Jan. 6.-The value of the gold, silver copper. lead and zinc produced at mines in Arizona Tn 1914 decreased over Is per cent as compared with 1913, owing principally to the lower price of copper on account of the European war. according to V. c. Heikes, of the L. s. geological survey, who estimates the output for 1914 at $59,000, 900, compared with $70.S75. .G27 for 1913. There was very little de- crease, hoWtver in the output of cop per- lead and zinc and considerable increases were made in gold and silver.
 The mine yield of gold in Arizona increased from $4.023,911 in 1913 to about S4.57O, 900 in 1914. This increase Of nearly 14 per cent was almost en- tirely in siliceous ores of gold and sil- yer mines. The Tom Reed. Gold Road. Vulture and Commonwealth mines pro- duced more than half the total gold of the state, the remainder coming chiefly from copper ores Increases were made at both the Tom Reed and Gold Road mines, and a notable quantity came from the silver ores cyanided at the Commonwealth property Several new gold mills were built, one at the Goldfield mine in Pinal county and sev- eral in YaVapai county.

Chief Interest Lies in Stub born Fight of French and Germans for Possession of Roads from Cernay to Meulhausen
HAS BEEN RAGING
 FOR PAST WEEK
On the Whole. Reports Show French Forces Are Maintaining Advantages Fighting Often at Point of the Bayonet
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcH1

LONDON, Jan. 6-Chief interest in the war lies in the stubborn fight the French and Germans are carry ing on for the roads to Cernay and Meulhausen in upper Alsace. Here the fighting has been raging a week, which is described in a Berlin dis patch as the most violent of the war
 The Russians have taken the of fensive against Mlawa on the East Prussian frontier and tonight report the capture of a village on the road to that town. On other parts of the front there are but little changes.
 In upper Alsace the Germans sue ceeded in capturing one trench which they previously lost, but on the whole French reports appear to show that the forces of France have maintened their advantage, much of the fight ing being at the point of the bayo- net. Along the rest of the western front the tide of battle continues to ebb and flow. On either side of Rheims. particularly to the east of that haIrassed city, according to re- POA eoi eAC lCHNh ueiliy PuSll liiCii lines a few hundred yards forward In ArGonne first the Germans and then the French report the capture of each others entrenchments.
 Another region where the French seemingly keep nibbling away at the German lines is in Woevre, where gains were reported last night and again today. which, when consoli- dated, must have gone a long way toward rendering the Germans long occupation of St. Mhiel on the Mouse less comfortable
 The Germans are still hammering at the Russian line drawn directly across the roads to Warsaw from the west, but it is reported, with less force behind them In western Galicia, however, where they have reinforced the Austrians, they held up the Russian advance near Cor lice In southern Poland wet weather has intervened and put a stop to the fighting. Neither side is able to move there owing to high water and mud. In the realm of international politics the next move by Rumania is awaited with interest. while the arrest of Cardinal Mercier primate of Belgium, is attracting world wide attention.

Word comes from. Washington that a
critical stage has been reached in the
correspondence with Germany, and out
side of diplomatic and official circles it is
felt that this country has been played
with by Germany long enough. The
Boston Globe thus summarizes the last
German note: eff, unfortunately, the
submarine commander does feel himself
justified in sinking liner and drowning
Americans, the Berlin Government will
be only sorry; it will refuse any repara-
ton. And if the matter should be re.
ferred to The Hague the question of the
justifiability of such submarine warfare
must not be submitted to arbitration. +"
And it concludes, as follows: at is
not likely that Germany desires another
antagonist. But this exhibition of the
rrogant, tortuous diplomacy which has
8 eparated Germany from the world does
n OF make it difficult to understand what
has helped to earn her those enemies

Skowhegan Corn Shop Open.

The Portland Packing Co. has begun
operations at it's Skowhegan plant and
has begun canning corn and it is said
that unless an early frost should come
this will be the biggest packing season
in the history of the company, as the
seasons crop is unusually large and the
weather conditions, though damp, have
had tendency to make the corn grow
extensively, and the only thing that is
feared is that there has not been sum
shine enough to get the crop ripened be-
fore frost may come that will affect it.
The acreage is much larger this year, as
profits in corn raising have increased in
the last few years in that part of it used
for ensilage.

THE ROADS.

For years past the roads leading into
the city have been in bad condition and
loud complaints have come from all who
had to use them. 'tairly good roads
everywhere until we struck Belfast" has
been the common remark of tourists.
This year, we are told by those who drive
and auto that great deal has been done
to remedy this condition. The bitches
have been cleared, drainage looked after,
the road beds rounded and given coat of
gravel. There is growing sentiment
here and elsewhere that road thus con-
structed is practically as good, and less
expensive to maintain, than the so-called
State roads that cost from So, 900 to 81 ZOO
per mile, and it is realized that if this
policy is continued it must result in the
bankruptcy of the State and the COM
munities. Belfast has $50 miles of road
and at the maximum cost of $4,000 per
mile we have an aggregate of $500. 900.
The idea that section of State road
when built is permanent improvement
is proved to be erroneous. Sections built
only few years ago are already going
to pieces under the heavy wear and tear
Of the now universal automobile, and
this has called for patrol for inspection
corresponding to the sectionmen on the
railroads. Unfortunately the men en-
trusted with this duty are not always Sc
lected because of their experience or
k knowledge of road building but as a re-
ward for political or personal service.
The Journal is heartily in favor of good
