ANOTHER BLOW FOR ALCOHOL

Employees of the Anaconda Mining company have been given this warn ing in bulletin posted by the com. pany:
 Never go to work after drinking liquor, and if you must drink, stay home. Experience has proved that a great many accidents are caused from drinking intoxicating liquors. It will be remembered that from September 1, 1914, to September 14. all saloons tn Butte were closed; that from Sep tember IA to September 24 they were open only from O o'clock in the morn- ing to o'clock at night. and that for the remainder of the month they were open only from ' o'clock in the morn ing to 10 o'clock at night The acci- dent records of the Anaconda Copper Mining company show the following significant figures: Number of acci. dents per ten thousand shifts: July, 6.22; August. 1I25, September. 421; {; October. 75S; November, 6.07."

THE PANAMA CANAL SITUATION MAKES IMPORTANT. THE BUILD ING OF NICARAGUAN CANAL.

The closing for some time, possibly for some months, of the Panama Ca nal merely emphasizes the position that the Manufacturers Record has taken from the beginning, that this canal was located at the wrong place, and that instead of cutting a canal through the Isthmus of Panama we should have adopted the Nicaraguan route.
 The situation also emphasizes the position we have taken repeatedly,x that, notwithstanding the fact that our country has spent some hundreds of millions of dollars in constructing the position we have taken repeatedly, Panama Canal, We ought now to se- cure from Nicaragua the exclusive right to build a canal through that country.
 The heavy traffic through the Pana- ma Canal showed what might be ex- pected in the future with the increase of the worlds ocean-going trade, and especially with the development of our commerce, foreign and coastwise, be- tween the Pacific and the Atlantic.
 This country can far better afford to secure from Nicaragua the right to build a canal through that country and hold it in reserve-and, indeed, it can far better afford to spend a hundred million dollars or more. as may be needed, to build such canal than it can afford to run any possible risk of an Isthmian canal not being available at all times. The closing of the canal and the bare possibility that it may never be entirely satisfactory and safe in an emergency would amply justify the building of a Nicaraguan canal. Having expended some hun dreds of millions on the Panama Canal we should now make doubly sure our control of the situation and our abili- ty to permit the passage of warships, as we'll as ships of commerce, with out the possibility of interruption, from ocean to ocean, and no time should be lost in securing a right of way through Nicaragua and then giv- ing immediate consideration to the wisdom of building this canal, without taking too great a risk waiting on the uncertainties of the Panama situation.

They Simply Won't Be Married

Several young men were recently asked by writer in the December Woman's Home Companion why they refused to be married. Their answers throw considerable light on what is becoming a national problem. One said that girls are too clever for the men nowadays-that he wanted "just a wife" and the girl he had been en- gagged to marry was making more money than he was and refused to give up her work Another complained of the expensive tastes of the modern young woman, another that he had set out to accomplish certain things before marrying. Still another re- fused to be sentenced to hard labor for life, and one complained that the local girls were "a bit narrow

Asking Her Pa.

"5ir," said the young man, with much respect, "I know that you are a millionaire and that I am poor. It seems presumptuous in me to aspire to the hand of your daughter. But l have thought the matter out and with some difidence l have resolved to make my request. Love, sir, is not bound by sordid considerations, or by mere social conventions. have very real attachment for your daughter, and I pray that you will put no ob- stacle in the way of our early mar riage."
 The old man seemed interested in the young fellow and inclined to lis ten.
 Quite so," said he. "As you know, I am not in the habit of sticking at trifes, providing the main purpose is straight. But which of my girls do you want?"
 The young man breathed sigh of relief and courteously replied:

HUNDREDS OF REFUGEES FROM
 WARSA " ARE REACHING MOSCOW
Abandonment of City Was So Carefully Planned the Exodus Seemed No More Than Ordinary Summer Excursions
rAssocItrrp raEss pIspArcHl

TAsSOCIATFD PREss DISPATCH MOSCOW. Aug 5-Hundreds of refu- gees from Warsaw are arriving daily. Most of them are without money or means of sustenance and are seeking aid from the American consulate, where an enlarged staff is attempting 10 supply temporary assistance
 The refugees state that although the population of the Polish capital was convinced that the Germans would ul- timately occupy the city. the majority of the citizens elected to remain. only approximately T. per cent to date hay ing left the city.
 This accounts for the comparative order and absence of panic which ac- companicd their exodus.
 When German occupation first seemed imminent the government is- sued an order that third class tickets to any point iu the interior of Russia should be given free 10 all citizens de- sirIng to depart. The only condition attached bv the authorities was that residents so leaving would not be al- lowed to return without a special per init.
 The abandonment of the city was so carefully planned and systematically executed that the onlooker received am impre ssion of no more extraordinary phenomenon occurring than an ordin- ary summer exodus. Sufficient extra trains had been provided SD that tray cling conditions on the whole differed little from normal
 An unusual feature of the present re- tiroment was the fact that provision tickets were made unnecessary. The bulk of the refugees travelled on foot or with wagons along the Highway. Most of the refugees were unable to proceed southWurd to Kiev and finding the rail way to Wilma monopolized for military purposes they took the line to the east temporarily croWding Moscow. Nladov- do and -Litovsk. Many of these lost their homes in outlying portions Of Warsaw, the destruction of which became a military necessity.

Because of Brevity of the British Note Concerning Steamer Nachez Misap- prehension Has Arisen in United States
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHl

LONDON. Aug 5.-Learnins from the comment on recently exchanged shipping espondence between the United States and Great Britain that a misappreheusion has arisen with re- gard to the British note concerning the steamer Nachez which it is asserted was interpreted as stating the cargo was seized as a reprisal measure against Germany's submarine policy the foreign office explains the misun- .dtrstanding arises from the breNitY of the note It is said the seizure was based on the British contention of the absolute legality of the orders cn
 The foreign office also explains that in stating the British government does not yet known what steps the neutrlls have taken against the German subma- rine policy it does not mean to include the United States. which it says made public it's protests against this form by warfare. Ii is also explained that in making reference to the German sub marine policy the British government only desired to point out that from it's standpoint it WAS hardly fair to ask it to give up perfectly legal policy be- cause Germany is engaged in palpably illegal course

 The foregoing presented at yester- Gay mornings meeting of the city com mission by Commissioner Q. T. Richey and seconded by Commissioner Joseph Cope failed to carry when Mayor George L.

With two votes for the motion and two against it, there was mo question but that the motion had not carried But the storm broke when Comn1issioner Richey raised the point that not having determined, de clared and found" the protests to be in sufficient. they must of necessity be considered sufficient and that all fur ther proceedings toward paving under Resolution No 119 were killed.

 Mr Richey did not agree with the mayor that the petition had been de clared insufficient but held that the motion to declare it insufficient having failed to carry the protests had been voted sufficient. The mayor asked Acting City Attorney J. F. Nelson for an opinion as to the statue of the pro tests under the vote.

Full Text of Judge Stan ford's Decision in Man damus Case Shows Veto of Repeating Clauses Was Not Sustained
QUESTION OF APPEAL
 STILL UNSETTLED
Auditor CaIlaghan Analyz- ing the Decision - Finds. Several Matters Which May Need Further Inter pretatiOn

The decision of Judge Stanford granting the application of Jesse Boyce for writ of mandamus to compel payment of claims by State Auditor Callaghan was signed and transmitted to the auditor late yes terday afternoon. The court an nounces three general conclusions of law: first, that the governors veto of the repeating clauses where the amount appropriated was approved is not in effect; second, that the veto was constitutional as to those items appropriating money which were dis approved in their entirety; and third that the governors veto of those sec tions repeating previous existing laws, without making q money appropria- tion, is sustained
 A careful analysis of the courts de- cision was at once begun by State Auditor Callaghan and Attorney w. F. Ryan, who announced last night after comparing the various sections with the findings of the court that the legislative appropriations had been sustained in 2 cases in which the governor had vetoed the repeating clauses, and that the governors veto had been upheld and the statutory appropriations restored by the ruling in 1G cases
 No decision had been reached last night as to whether the case will be taken up to the supreme court for further interpretation IL was stated by Auditor Callaghan that a further conference would be held today. No decision may be reached in the mat ter before tomorrow
 Under the terms of the courts de cision, it was pointed out last night, there appear to be certain inconsistencies, which leave the
 auditor in doubt as to the authority under which he is to pay certain claims. Among these are the claims relating to the salary of the state engineer, the citizen member of the board of control, and an expense claim of the state en- gineering department for books The court in it's decision directs the au- ditor to pay the claims mentioned under the section of the appropria ton bill. or under the provision of the revised statutes. 1913 The fact that the auditor is directed to pay the claims under either authority, it is stated leaves him in doubt as to just what authority applies to each of the claims. The action of the court in sustaining the veto of the governor as applied to certain pro visions of section 51 and not to oth- CTS, was another matter considered carefully at the conference last night According to the first rule laid down by the court, it was pointed out, the governor could not veto q part of a
