LET GOVERNMENT
TAKE OVER SHELTERS

we read IN history of the Spanish
inquisition, that was founded in 1881,
and put to death 10000 heretics dur
ing its reign, aside from the innum-
cradle number that were manned for
life by close confinement in under
ground dungeons, etc. These people
lost their liberty, their health and
their lives, because they dared pro-
test against the doctrines of the
ecclesiast of that period
That was over four hundred years
ago, and we read with a shudder of
those inhuman atrocities, and attrib-
ute it to the want of intelligence
OF the people of the dark ages. We
are now supposed to be living in an
enlightened age, surrounded by the
greatest environments that human
genius can devise, and still we are
confronted with a condition that far
exceeds the black slavery of ante
bellum days.
The whole mining portion of the
western hemisphere is confronted by
deplorable condition, brought about
by the American Smelling and Re-
filming company, who control the
mining industry of the continent, and
whose merciless grasp is not only
running this great industry, but Great
ing more paupers than any other sect
or clan since the history of the
world began.
This government, for years has as
Department with all it's rural routes.
and the service has been satisfactory
to all. The Postal Savings bank and
parcel post are of recent innovation
and under government control, are
working a revolution in banking and
the carrying of parcels. and driving
the express monopoly out of business.
Nearly the whole of Europe is now
ferent powers on the verge of bank
ruptcy. Their most powerful and
learned financial agents are now
securing this country, and on bended
knee supplicating the loan OF one bill
lion dollars of the golden metal, dug
from our everlasting hills, to save
them from ruin.
The time is now fully ripe. wien
this government should, for the sake
OF suffering humanity, either take
over the smelters. or regulate the
acts Of the chiefest of all the giant
monopolies that have ever cursed a
band of American freeman, and caus
ed more poverty in the last score
of years than any organization re-
corded in history.
Let the United States senators
and congressman from all mineral
producing states, combine upon a bill
and introduce it at the coming ses-
sion of congress, to either take
over the smelling interests of the
country, or pass such laws as will
allow free and unrestricted competi-
tion. that our wealth. now locked in
natures treasure vaults, may be TAX
en- therefrom for the relief of the
suffering humanity of the world.

Jay Byron, barrlster and mining
authority Of Russell Gulch. shipped
a load mot car loadD of surface
quartz to the sampler this week
from the celebrated Gold Rock mine
The ore is expected to run as well
as previous shipments, which would
show the ore to contain 1.50 ozs
gold and s ozs. silver. TIE ore was
taken out at depth of so feet on a
new lead exposed from grass roots.
Mr.. Byron has worked the Gold Rock
persistently for several years, and
the present showing in the proper
ty would indicate that he is to be am
ply rewarded for his efforts. The
main shaft of the Gold Rock is 800
feet deep. and from these workings
an enormous sum Of money was made.
It is claimed that the money made
in the Gold Rock years ago. built

NEW INNOVATION IN LEASING

AS the mining industry of our
are being introduced, regarding the
leasing and bonding of mines. Sew
eral of our mine owners, seeing that
the day for making easy money from
forever over, and knowing full well
that the mining of the future must
be conducted along legitimate busi-
ness lines, are now leasing and
bonding their mines on terms that
call for no royalty until the value of
the output exceeds day wages for
these employed. Also all royalties
to be applied on purchase price. This
innovation gives the lessee an in
ducement to develop. and the owner
the benefit of development, with
fair prospect of sale.
Under tie old system. we can re-
call instances where the lessees paid
the owner $4,000 monthly for royal
ty, while they came out in debt, sim
ply because the ore taken out less
royalty, failed to pay the expense
of production. With mine owners
realizing the fact that the lessees
are entitled to share in the profits,
and competition given us in tie sale
and treatment of all kinds of ore
by government command. surely we
will become prosperous state and
county.

HE'S A TYPICAL AMERICAN

Robert P. Skinner, consul general
at London, who came home to report
to the administration concerning the
controversy with England owe Ameri-
can shipping, is a typical American,
whose career illustrates how one may
not only meet opportunity when it
comes his way, but create opportunity,
Eighteen or twenty years ago he
was identified with what would be
called a country newspaper in his
home town at Massillon, o. The
country newspapers in Ohio as a rule
are metropolitan in their spirit and
are good training for other places.
Massillon is near Canton. William
Mckinley lived at Canton. During the
presidential campaign of 1896 Robert
P. Skinner looked after the news for
several papers in New York and else
where. After the election he was
one of the band of newspaper men
who, as the phrase then went, helped
Major Mckinley form his cabinet.

UNCLE SANS RADIO CHIEF

The story Of the development of
wireless communication in the United
States covers a span of only 16 years.
When that story comes to be written
the historian will find that the major
portion of his material and notes &C
cumulated for the task relates to the
activities of the navy, and that, in this
portion of them, the figure of Capt.
William H. G. Billiard, U. S. N, is
prominent.
For just as the navy pioneered in
wireless, so, within the navy, Captain
Billiard was a leader of the pioneers.
1t really was IL years ago that
Captain Billiard, then a young naval
lieutenant, fresh from Spanish-Amer-
lean war service, was attracted by the
new subject. During his student days
at Annapolis electricity and electrical
engineering had attracted him. These
studies he carried on further follow
ing graduation. He became known as
one of the electrical sharps" of the

ITALY'S BRAVE KING

They call him king, but in truth
he is more of a confrere, a fellow citi-
zen, a president of a republic than a
king Of a monarchy. 1t is safe to say
if Victor Emmanuel III by some turn
of fortune were dethroned tomorrow
and Italy were asked to elect a presi-
dent his name would be Victor EN-
manuel. For he is heart and soul
Italian, the beau ideal, the beau
anbreur, the idol OF the nation.
1t was thoroughly characteristic
OF him, when Italy entered the war, to
throw aside his scepter, place his
uncle, the duke of Genoa, on his
throne while the king mounted his
horse and rode away with his army.
Anybody can sit on a throne; it takes
a brave man to ride to war. But Vic
tor Emmanuel has new shirked dan
ger.
In so far as any man can be trained
to be a king the monarch of the
Italians was so trained. Truly Spar

A NATURAL

Gus discussions Of what the future
of the apple market is going to be.
While IL does appear to some that
there will be too many apples in

What II we do raise 10000 car
loads Of apples in 1919? Counting
500 boxes per car, that gives us
go 1.2 million. This is whole lot

what will be shipped abroad.

details, but l hope to see the time
come when everyone can have apples
to eat the same as potatoes. 1t has
not been so long since lots of us had
to do without things that are com
mon now.
we'll remember during Clevelands
administration that wheat sold ior
less than fifty cents per bushel and
corn for IL cents. Farmers said there
was an overproduction and that they
would have to raise something else
I'll venture to say that there is twice
as much wheat raised now as there

NOW is THE TIME
TO BUY YOUR SEEDS

Now Is the time for farmers to
purchase their seeds, advises the
Agronomy department of the Utah
Agricultural College. By getting
seed early they can secure the best
on the market, If, however, they
wait until few days before plant,
ing, anything that the local market
affords will have to be taken; which
quite often results in getting infer
Tor seed and consequently results In
poorer crops.
BY all means begin to get your
seed in plenty of time. In buying
seed beware OF impurities and low
termination.
