THE GROWING PAYROLL.

It is already being predicted that there will be shortage of miners in this vicinity before the season is over. This does not mean that there is need for an thrush of miners from the out side, for there are plenty in the coun- try at the present time, and newcom- CTS might fare poorly. It does mean. however, that every man in this vii cinity, qualified to work in the mines, will be sure of position if he wishes to work. In other words, the pay roll, the main support of every town, is being rapidly increased in size, and the prosperity of the town is increas- ing proportionately.

AWAY FROM THE FARM.

The great farming section of the ed by the shortage of help. The high wages paid by munitions plants and others whose traffic has been expand ed enormously by the demands of the warning nations, have called from farm to factory the best of the na- tion's brawn and brain until the prob lem of planting the spring crops, cul- tivating and gathering the early fruits and vegetables, and the garnering of the grain has become exceedingly acute.
 the United States army has been eX- ceedingly slow, and from all sections the United States army officers report a lack of interest in army and other national matters pertaining to war. The people do not want war; they have no time for war, and are much too busy making money to heed the administration war cry. They are too much engrossed with the making of shells, shoes, automobiles, blankets, saddles and canned meats to think of the possibility of famine resulting from the lack of hands in the har- vest fields. And yet famine is what the country is heading for unless less attention is paid to war and more to the food supply. Prices have steadily climbed higher, as the best of our food supply is sent to the warning na- tions; wages have steadily mounted upward until the value of the produc- tive power of a dollar has been cut to about 33 cents in comparison to what it was year or two ago. Our best horses and draft animals have gone to Europe to meet death in the trenches, until you will yet see the blow pulled by human beings, as in the old countries, in cases where the farmer cannot afford motor tractors. It is high time the people awoke to the peril of sending our resources to foreign countries and doing without ourselves.
 The simple fact is that we of the United States are paying large part of the war bills but we do not seem to realize it nor care for the conse- quences.

Today's dispatches report that the Turks are vainly seeking peace, and that the Russians have turned them down cold. These dispatches ema- hated in New York, and undoubtedly must be true. If the Turks are ex- hausted and ready to sue for peace they are going about it in a very queer way, in view of the recent great victory over the English forces in

SWING OF PICK MAKES
 OLD HOBO MINER RICH

SAN FHANClSCO. Mdy D. I1C'
 bo Matt Kelly has struck it rich in
 the Old Bodie mine. And somewhere 1 in California the long neglected wife of Hobo Matt will receive a fat check in evidence of the fact. The ghost of a mine and the ghost Of man. The only two things "Ho- bo Matt believed in have remained true to his faith-his wife and the gold ledge of the Beehive days. He has won a life-time's gamble. He will have $1OO,0OO in good clean gold before his work is done.
 Hobo Matt is known in all the mining camps in the West. When "Old Bruin' Kelly, his uncle was winning his fame upon the Comstock and as superintendent of the Bodie mine, Matt was his trusted messen- ger. He became miner. When the Beehive" was turning out its mil lions Matt was there. He knew every inch of those honeycombs of wealth.
 He gambled in Bodie stocks and won. He spent his money as easily as he made it. He had married but even his wife's love could not hold him from the mad delights of those feverish bonanze days.
 Then Matt became Hobo Matt" 7" With his blanket on his back he be- came a wanderer. In the back of his mind was the constant thought of that undiscovered ledge of gold in the Bodie, that he meant to have one day. Even in his cups he never dis closed his secret, biding his time. Last fall Matt decided that the time had come to go back to Bodie. He found the place that once had held 10000 busy men changed into a dreary sleepy village of 200 inhab- itants. The T"Old Reliable" was si- lent, the Standard Mining Company had dissolved and J. s. Cain, mining broker, had gathered in the old Bodie properties.
 When Hobo Matt" appeared in camp and asked for the lease on the old mine he was laughed at. No one had any faith in the old wanderer. Cain turned him down. He went to a man who had known him in better days-Lester Bell-and told him the secret, offering to share with him if Bell could get the lease.
 Bell did not have much faith but he agreed to try in few days. Cain gave the lease to Bell. The compa- ny's engineers had gone again into the mine and pronounced it worth less.
 Then Hobo Matt became young again. The years dropped away from him as he shouldered his pick and shovel and went to work in the we'll remembered lodges. A drift was started, and after sleep of forty years a ledge rich in true colors was uncovered. Hobo Matt's" dream came true by the light of candle far down under the surface of the white earth.

Mesopotamia. Two or three more such fainting spells on the part of the Turks would just about clean up the Allied forces in Mesopotamia and in Arabia. But we must have the news, you know, even if 1t has to be manu- factured out of whole cloth.
