THE RISE IN SILVER

The steady advance in the price of silver, while not attracting S o
much attention a. have the sensational rise in the baser metals is a mat
tel of utmost importance to the financial world and particularly to the
men of the westw where so many great silver producing mines are located
Stocks representing these mines have not experienced, says Goodwins
Weekly, a strong enough movement during the rise in the price of the
metal, probably because that rise has been o gradual, but when the public
fully cognizant Of what will be necessary in the readjustment of the
monetary situation all rel the world later +, or in other words, wnen
the raj is 1t al end, W e believe in common with market students that
there will be a boom in sivcrstocks entirely separate from that which
has affected securities in any other distinctive class.
The longer the war goes O the greater is the possibility of the re-
monetzation of silver. There has tlready been a large absorption of sill
ver for coinage purposes due to the withdrawal of gold from circulation
by the Allies. and fnanciers seem agreed that there is a strong probability
of il becoming a question with all the powers emboied abroad OF repud-
iatng their international obligations if the great nations of the world do
not remonetize silver or accept it on a fixed basis at a much higher value
than the present price of the metal. There is no dscountng the import
ance of the position of silver in the world of finance today. and with its
strength assured lit will again be a most important factor in the prosperity
of the entire country and particularly the western states. Surely the ot-
look for metal mining in the west for 1917 is most propitious.

DRAMATIZING THEIR IMMATURITY

Nothing so annoys the sufragists says the New York Times, a to
be told that the quality of the feminine mind has anything to do with the
question. Nothing % moves them to indignant speech as to hear II
alleged that the introduction of the female mine into politics will not m
prove that science. Then, by VA of discomhting the argument, they pro-
coed to furnish gratuhous demonstrations of its truth.
Some things are called Enthusiastically feminine which are, in
truth, only Enthusiastically human. But certainly no aggregation OF
male minds, even if carefully selected because of their smallness and
cheapness, would yer think of anything ST supremacy small and cheap as
the unfurling O. the banner bearing the words: "Mr. President, what will
you do for woman suffrage" before his eyes as he in the nail of
repre- sentatives to inform the congress of the state Of the nation. One
would be justified in calling that exhibition Enthusiastically feminine
even if the phrase were unjustihed in nine other cases out of ten, simply
because its peculiar compound of qualities could never be found in any
political performance by any group of males. If there vas n quality
apparently left out, its omission a instantly supplied by the breathless
Eruption into the press gallery, simultaneously with the unfurhng of the
banner, of a messenger with a hundred mineographed copies OF a state
ment giving the names of the women guilty of the performance, and a
statement in the first person by the female organizer of the assault or
good taste.
Members of congress from the women suffrage states privately de-
plored the incident. If they really desire to see the glories of their sys-
TEN extended to other states, re do not wonder. Those glories will
never be extended if the voters in those other states continue to be Of
Tended and Disguised by exhibitions of chldishness like this. This par
tcular exhibition almost seems to have been designed by some enemy OF
suffrage intent on spectacu1ary proving the worst that has been said about
the puernty of the sufragit mind.

LOWER INSURANCE RATES FOR CARSON

During the coming year Carson City will have the benefit of lower
fire insurance rates. This is because a recent survey of the waters and
fire fighting facilities disclosed the fact that Carson vas o well protected
against fire, by reason of the high pressure o n it's water mains and a
efficient fire department. that under the rule of the San Francisco Board
of Underwriters this city is entitled to a lower rate.-
Some years g a similar survey was made Of the city of Reno and
it resulted n a substantial reduction of rates. 1t "a discovered that
the property owners of Reno had been paying a higher rate than was var
rented simply because no had moved in the matter IF survey of the
water facilities and a investigation of the fire fighting appliances OF
the town.
Under the present law the insurance commissioner is required to
make a survey OF the fire fighting appliances of any town in the state o
a petition of a certain percentage of the property owners. But these petit
tons never materaHze from the fact that not one person in a hundred
knows of the existence of such a law.
1t might be well for the incoming legislature to give the insurance
commissioner, IN his own voIton. the power to make a fire survey OF
the proper showing to the San Francisco Board OF Underwriters and
securing proper reductions. The expense could easily be net by the
property wners OF the towns securing the reduction. The survey made
at Reno about ten years ago cost but a few hundred dollars and las saved
the property owners many thousands. The fire insurance companies art
favorable to this course and are always willing to encourage it. THEFT
reduced rate a premium on preparedness.

WORLD NEEDS MORE WOOL

The world needs more wool to clothe its increasing population, and
consequently more sheep, was the statement made a few days ago by Al
bert w. Elliott Of Boston at the tenth annual meeting of the American
Association of Wooden and Worsted Manufacturers in New York City
1t a shown that last year the United States raised and imported
8O0OOOO pounds of WOOL and exported nearly $60OOONN worth OF wool
manufacturers. Both Great Britain and the United States, it was stated,
had enormously increased their wool consumption since the wr began.
According to Mr.. Elliott, there are in the world today about 634OOOO
sheep, producing 1885, 100000 pounds of wool a year.
President Robert T. Frances, in his annual address, complained that
the public, while willing to pay advances n food and other necessities,
failed to assent to paying proportionately more for clothing, notwith-
standing the mounting costs of production. Both clothing manufacturers
and retailers, he said, had encouraged the public in the matter of fixed
prices for suits. If these fixed prices cannot be done away with, Mr.
Francis said, the public must expect poorer materials and less wear.
DR.. William Beckers of Brooklyn said the manufacture of dyes and
chemicals in the United States should be encouraged and pointed to Ger
nan az proving the wisdom of having a great chemical industry which
could be turned overnight to the government for the manufacture of x

Railroad executives informed of this

been received that the, proposal of

by us Aug. 18, has been accepted by

Washington, Aug. %. - End Of
Pres. Wilson's efforts to negotiate
peace between railroads and brother
hoods expected today. The presi-
dent was prepared to seek through
legislation what apparently cannot
be accomplished by persuasion.
The situation goes to congress.
Conference last night with both
brotherhoods and railroad executives
developed only that neither side
would yield anything. President
then began work at once on mes
sage he will deliver before joint ses-
sion of congress at 2:30 this after
noon to recommend legislation de-
signed to delay impending strike or
bring it to quick end if it is in full
swing before congress passes laws
in question.

is said to express, in strong language
his view of what a strike would mean
to the country, together with his
opinion of the course taken by both
sides to the dispute.
Inc railway presidents committee
of eight rendered to him during the
morning their own proposition,
which has been ready since Satur-
day night, but which he deferred re-
ceiving until today, while offering
them new compromise plan. The
president sent the proposition, . by
Sec'y Tumulty, to the brotherhood
leaders. There was no expectation
the brotherhood would accept it. The
sending of the proposition to the
brotherhoods was considered prob
ably the last act in the direct nego-
tiatiOns.

RIFLE CLUBS OF VALUE.
 IF WAR SHOULD START

The 90,000 members of rifle clubs affiliated with the National Rife Asso- citation Of America offer field in time of peace from which to recruit reserves and members of civilian training camps provided for in the army reorganization bill. and will be of value in event of war, when many of them will respond to theF call to the colors, according to a memoran- dunn issued by the national board for the promotion of rifle practice, through the war department.
 The memorandum shows that Con- necticut has eight civilian rifle clubs and one High school rif1ec Iub This of states in respect to the number of clubs. Affiliated with the National Rifle Association of America are now 1, ,082 civilian clubs, II college clubs, A preparatory and military school clubs and 118 High school clubs Dur ing the first five months of this year there were organized 443 civilian clubs, seven college clubs, two prepar- atory and military school clubs and 31 High school clubs. These have been supplied with arms and ammu- ton in sufficient quantity to partici- pate in rifle practice. Why not a rifle club in every county % is the question put by, Major Fred H. Phil lips, Jr., assistant recorder of the na- tionaI board and secretary of the Ma tiona1 Rifle Association.
