Labor Commissioner Wallace has
taken up the violations of the eight
hour law by the Nevada Consolidated
Copper company at McGill, complaints
having been made to his office to that
effect. The company is charged with
working it's men over eight hours IN
the open cuts, and admits it, but says
that the men object to a cut in hours
with corresponding reduction in pay
and that the enforcement of the law
would be detrimental rather than ben
efical to labor Commissioner wal
lace has an opinion of the attorney
general supporting him in his conten-
ton. The company is also charged
with the violation Of the eight-hour
law at what is known as the Eureka

LIGHTS AND SHADOWS. OF THE WAR
Correspondence of the Associated Press

mics in this war have found that the
men who have been in the trenches
know from experience how to hold
the trenches. They can dig and they
can stick no matter how heavy the
shell fire. But fresh troops when
properly drilled are the best for the
offensive. England has far larger
army which has never heard the crack
of bullet than has ever been under
fire, The new army men learned a
good deal in England they are to be
taught more at the front"
A battalion of new army men drawn
up on the pavement of a French vii
lage in front of their billets with their
transport and their packs on their
backs waiting for a general to inspect
| them Is a common sight. The sub
ordinate inspectors have more time
to spare for the task than the com
| manderin-chief. Down the front OF
the line of each company and then
along the rear they move slowly as
they take in every detail.

lions has to be made by a country
that had only a small regular army te

PARIS, Jan. 25.-German pontoon
bridges across the Meuse at st. Alihiel,
were blown to pieces by French shells,
it was reported in official dispatches to-
day. German gunners ON the west bank
of the Meuse attempted unsuccessfully
to silence the French artillery. Addl-
tional guns were brought into position
by the French. Shells fell in the city
OF st. Alihiel, inhicting losses among
the German defenders.
Excepting this progress in the drive
against the point of the German wedge
south of Nerdun and a slight gain east
of st. George, near the seacoast, the
fighting in the past twenty-four hours
has resulted in no more important
changes, according TO the war office.
A BavaTian detachment was sur
prised by a French infantry attack in
Lorraine and a number of prisoners
were taken. German infantry attacks
at Berry-au-Bac and in the Argonne
were successfully repulsed. In the
Champagne region, French shells de-
mOlished a section of earthworks and
German shelters.
A thick fog overhung the Vosges
and Lower Alsace, halting fighting in
those regions. From the River Lys
southwark to the Disc, only intermit-
tent cannonading was reported.
