PARCEL POST RULING
STOPS ORE SHIPMENTS
NEW RULE IS HARD BLOW TO
SEVERAL GOLD CAMPS IN
NORTHERN IDAHO.

When the new ruling just made by
the postoffice department in regard to
parcel post becomes effective Septem-
Der /, the shipment of from 1000 to
$500 pounds of ore weekly through the
postoffice from Idaho to the Washoe
smelter at Anaconda will probably
cease, as the new ruling adds cent
"a pound or $40 per ton to the post
age rates.
Prohibitive Rate Imposed.
The ore is being shipped from Elk
City, Golden and Weippe, Idaho, via
Spokane, and has been costing $1.OS
per 100 pounds, or 81 cents for each
So pound sack shipped. This will be
increased to s2.OS per 100 pounds. The
ore is mailed by parcel post, and the
points from which 1t is shipped are
within the second parcel post zone
from Butte, which has radius of $50
miles. The mining camps in Idaho
are more than 300 miles from Butte
by the mail route, though within the
150-mile radius as the crow flies. The
new ruling provides that the second
zone rate of cents for the first pound
and cent for each additional pound
shall not apply in cases where the
mail route Is 900 miles or more be-
tween the point of shipment and the
point of delivery, but that the third
zone rate shall be substituted which
is cents for the first pound and 2
cents for each succeeding pound
Montana Camps Affected.
The mail route by which the ore
has been brought to Butte is north
west from the camps in Idaho to Spo-
kane, then east from Spokane across
Idaho and western Montana to Butte.
Many other places besides these Idaho
mining camps will be affected by the
increase in postage, including Kalis-
pell and Poison, Mont, and number
of towns in eastern Montana.
This ruling was made by the post
office department under power grant
ed the postmaster general to change
rates, with the consent of the federal
interstate commerce commission, ir
order to provide the public with the
best service and to insure that the
revenue from the service shall meet
the expense Handling the tons of ore
shipped under the old ruling has been
the despair of all the postoffice en-
ployes along the route.

THE ST. LAWRENCE.
At Least Two Cars Of Ore Will Be
Shipped This Fall.

Angus Sutherland, who has been do
ing much development work on the st.
Lawrence, about six miles from Sal
tese, at the head Of Silver creek, came
over from the mine the first of the
week and returned yesterday. At the
present time Mr.. Sutherland says he
is taking out ore for shipment and
hopes to be able to ship at least two
carloads before bad weather blocks
the wagon road.
He reports about IS men employed
at the Richmond, adjoining the st.
Lawrence. Three cars of ore have
been shipped from this property dur
ing the summer, and it is expected
that other shipments will be made be-
fore the season closes. The ore is
hauled by wagon to Saltese.

druggist, have been in the drug bu-

opinion Of the best way of selling

ed by Mi-o-na, the great dyspepsia
remedy, is the fairest they have ever
heard Of. They don't believe that a
medicine ought to be paid for unless
1t does the user some good. And
Mi-o-na is sold under positive guar
antee to relieve dyspepsia or to re-
fund the money. You simply leave
so cents on deposit with Wells-Hay-
maker and II, after you have used
the box OF Mona you decide that
1t has done you no good. all you
have to do Is to tell them so and
they will return your money.
Hundreds Of people have been re-
lieved of stomach agonies by using
this remarkable remedy. It Is not
simply food digester; 1t Is med
icine that puts all Of the digestive
organs into normal condition and
gives rudy, glowing, vigorous
health. A change for the better will
be seen after the first few doses Of
Mi-o-na, and its continued use will
soon give the power to eat anything
at any time and not suffer distress
afterward.

IS
now BACKED
BY THE GOLD
In Reserve Fund in Nicarauqua
Taking the Place of Mass
of Paper Money.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Dec. TO-
The monetary conversion of Mica
ragua. by which a mass of paper
money with nothing behind it save
the impaired credit of the government
has been converted into currency
backed by gold reserve, was CON-
pleted on October 81. by the expira-
ton Of the time in which to change
the old paper into the new money.
The conversion was begun in pre-
liminary way In 1911 by the proyis-
ional government which succeeded the
regimes Of Zeiaya and Of Madriz, the
president whom Zelaya left when he
fled. 1t was entered into actively IN
1912. was interrupted and set back a
year by the fiercest revolution of tina,
year. was resumed in 1913. and al
though retarded by the business de-
preston that fell upon the country
was making fair Roadway In 1914
when 1t was again set back by he
European war Notwithstanding these
obstacles the present government,
which succeeded the provisional Of
ficials after the elections Of 1912, has
steadily kept at it and now consum-
mates Its plan, much to the benefit
of business. commerce and industries.
When President Zelaya, who kept
himself in power and dictated Nc
aragua for seventeen years, from
1893 to 1909, first assumed Office there
was silver currency. During his
first eight years he left 1t alone, is
suing but small amounts OF paper. In
1901 and 1902 he issued Zoo. 1924 pesos
in paper currency and the country at
once went from silver to a paper
basis. the gold exchange falling from
the silver rate Of 2.0S in 1900 to a
fluctuating rate of five to six in 1902
and seven to eight in 1908. No fur
Their paper issues were made for some
years, in fact some was retired, the
exchange rate falling to $50 or 6.
His last two years. 1908 and 1909
were turbulent and revolutionary.
Over three million pesos more paper
were issued, the rate jumping TO 9.
His temporary successor. Dr.. Mad
riz. found no money and first class
revolution. He issued 100000 pesos.
The revolutionary government who
The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1915-12-10

gained possession In September, 1910,
had no money and at first no revenues
and issued 100000 during 1911 to
and other things. The rate fiuctuatcd
from twelve to twenty-five averaging
sixteen.
Then they began the monetary con-
version. The services OF the late
Charles A. Conant, OF New York, and
+. c. Harrison, OF London. late treas
urer general Of India. two OF the best
experts in America and England were
secured to devise the reform. A group
Of New York bankers were Interested
through the state department on m
vitation OF Nicaragua, and financed the
conversion. 1t cost Nicaragua ap-
proximately two millions besides much
financial distress at times, but though
often Bitterly discouraged the gov
eminent stuck to 1t, as they wanted to
get their country on sound money
basis, and now they reap their re-
ward.
The new money, of which the cor
doba is the standard, equal 10 an
American dollar In value, went into
force March %. 1913. The gold Ic-
serve Is kept in New York. All went
well, exchange remaining at par, IN
til the war In Europe broke out Then,,
frightened unduly as 1t has since
turned out, but along with the rest Of
tho world, the government passed o.
moratorium law and the sale Of gold
exchange stopped. Cordobas went to
a discount, at first OF Eve to eight
points. Then, assisted by local spec
ulators who wanted to return 70 the
halycon days Of wild fluctuations, COR
dobas fel land rose, aad fell again. at
one time reaching twenty-five per
cent discount. Early this year the
favorable reaction set in. assisred by
one Of the local banks, and the ror-
doba has gradually risen till now,
coincident with the conversion Of the
last Of the old paper money, 1t is prac-
tically at par again, and the gove.n n
ment and the bankers say 1t will he
maintained there at all cost.
Considering the effects Of the war
on finances, and that It cut Nicaraguan
commerce into half. and also consider
ing what has happened TO the pound
sterling and the money standards Of
Europe, Nicaragua's feat Of bringing
its money to par is very creditable.
It has had good financial advice and
assistance. and has perseyered. II
should be the first step towards q re-
vival Of its commerce and business.
The retirement Of the last Of the papsr
currency and bringing the new cor
dobas fell and rose, and Eel lagain. at
doba back to par Is hailed as imam
tor Of Finance Guaura are naturally
much elated.
