position being that Chairman George
A. Day Is soon to retire. Senator
Borah is quoted as saying that ne
has no interest In reorganization more
than that felt by any other republican
who hopes to see his party in position
win in 1915, and that his activity will
be limited to comforting with repub-
licans with the view to taking such
action as will meet the approval OF
the party as a whole.
The position of Senator Borah here
indicated is correct. He should have
no candidate for chairman and should
leave that question wholly to the
members of the committee represent
ing the republicans in every county in
the state He has nothing to fear
from the committee no matter who Is
chosen as its head, while on the other
hand the efficiency may be weakened

the incompetence of democratic adj

enough to destroy public confidence in
the democratic party the attitude or
that party toward national defense has
taken away its last vestige OF claim
upon the confidence of the people. The
appeals for liberal appropriations for

disregarded, and all suggestions of de-
Ivising sane system of militarS
training in order to have a reserve

sonable size, have not only fallen on
deaf ears, but have been met with the
cry of miltarism from the peace-at-

party.
This Indifference to the danger that
threatened the country was persistent
ly maintained in congress in the pres
ence of a war in Europe which every
thoughtful man realized might any

PRESERVING WOOD.
A Growing Industry Which Consumes
Much Zinc Chloride.

owing to the falling off since Aug
ust / of nearly 30 per cent in ship
ments of creosote from England and
Germany, whence comes all but a
small part of the imported oil used by
wood preserving plants in this coun-
try, American manufacturers have
taken steps which, says a report COM
piled by the forest service it is es-

the domestic article by about rs per
cent. The imported oil ordinarily
forms about IS per cent of the total
used in the United States, where creo-

MONEY IN ZINC.

Zinc mining In the Occur d'Alene
district Is still comparatively new
industry, and yet even now It has
opened up field OF tremendous Inn
portance and which Is certain to ex-
pand with rapid strides during the
next few years, 1t Is not necessary TO
take the war prices that now prevail
to figure large profits in zinc mining
for there Is no doubt that with the
great bodies of ore and high values
that have been uncovered In this dis
trict, handsome profit can be earned
by the mines here at prices that pre-
vailed before the war The report Of
the Interstate Callahan, published IN
this issue, leaves no doubt on this
point The conditions under which
this property is operated include COSTS
that would be dispensed with under
more favorable circumstances, and the
percentage OF mineral recovery will
be higher with the completion Of inn
proved milling facilities without ma
terially increasing the cost The
present process also includes the
hauling of all ore and concentrates
a distance of two miles to the rail-
road. Yet with all these adverse
conditions the Interstate Callahan
reports total cost per ton of ore
mined Of only $4.172 per ton. with
this showing now 1t Is not unreason-
able TO expect the Interstate Callahan,
when the mine Is more thoroughly
developed and the facilities for mil
ling the ore and delivering 1t on the
cars are improved in accordance with
the plans Of the company to be able
to show q total cost per ton Of ore
mined as low as SO.
The certainty that the zinc ores OF
the district can be worked at profit
under normal market conditions, along
with the fact that the demands
for zinc are rapidly increasing as its
adaptability for new and varied uses
become known, combine to make the
outlool; for zinc in the Occur dAlenes
exceptionally favorable, and remove
any apprehension as to the result of
a return to normal prices when the
demands of war have been supplied.

Both President Wilson and Cover
nor Moses Alexander are political ac-
cidents, both owing their election to
a split in the republican forces. The
majority in Idaho and in the nation is
still republican, and united party

don't like the way the democrats are
running the state and the nation let
them quit quarreling and vote the re-

During the past year Orofino has
enjoyed healthy growth. Several
new business buildings have gone up,
and business has been good. The
public roads leading into town have
been improved, the comfy has been a
little better advertised, and the peo-
pie have united for the general up
building of the town and the county.
Never in the history of Orofino has
there been such good spirit of un-
ity, with all the people pulling to-
gether. The Comm ial Club has
been a strong factor in this work.
