Less than half as much rain fell in

the federal weather bureau in Moor

Prior to 1914 the records fail to dis

NO GREAT gain
IN GOLD OUTPUT

Washington, July 6.-Reports re-
ceived by the United States geological
survey from the Utah mines indicate
that no great increase in gold may be
expected in that state for 1916, but
silver production, which is dependent
largely on the production of lead. has
gained over previous years. The lead
output from ores produced at the
Bingham, Utah, camp will exceed all
former totals.
At the present rate of output, fully
225, 100000 pounds of copper will be
produced in 1915, this estimate having
been made from the increased tonnage
being treated at the concentration
mills near Garfield.
Zinc production from sulphide con-
centrate and oxidized and sulphide
ores will not largely exceed the 1915
output of 22.000,000 pounds.
The high prices of metals during
the last six months caused Utah pro-
ducers to put all available miners to
work getting out ore. In some of the
snow-bound camps large quantities
of ore were stored during the winter
months and when this was released
to the buyers, a curtailment was re-
quested by the smelters of all pro-
ducers exceeding contract limits.

freight rates, the session being held

There is belief, however, that one
more club will be dropped from the
league roster. This will mean a four
team league, and a revised schedule.
1t will also mean that the fastest
players in the two dropped clubs will
be picked up by the other clubs. This
will insure four fast teams.
While the result of the conference at
Duluth today may materially change
the present outlook, the situation is
not very promising one. The report

WAR WITH MEXICO
LOOKS INEVITABLE

A. the time this article is written
war with Mexico seems inevitable,
President Wilson has set a limit Of
time for release of American sol
diers captured at Carrezal last week
and refusal Of that demand alone it
is thought will bring war.
More outraees by bandits on the
border are reported and Carranza
seems proof against any appeal for
peace.
The United States is rushing
troops to the border where it is es-
timated that 100000 will be needed.
The United States has forbidden the
shipment Of supplies into Mexico
from this country and is making
every preparation as though war is
certain too come.

BAPTIST CHURCH

The revival services, twice daily,
are yet in progress at the Baptist
church and will so continue at least
until Sunday.
Since the merchants were asked
and granted the request to close
their places Of business during the
hour of from 8 to 4 o'clock p. m.,
the former morning service has
been changed to that hour in the
afternoon.
The numbers in attendance at the
services are gratifyingly large and
the interest has been good from the
first. Rev. D. P. Montgomery grows
on those who hear him and certain
ly does some excellent preaching
which appeals alike to the people of
all Christian beliefs. The singing
done by the home choirs, senior and
junior, led by Bro. Paul Montgom-
cry, son of the preacher, is fine
and during this meeting Bro. Paul
has added to the reputation he es-
tablished here last year as a singer
and director of sacred songs.
Up to the writing Of this article,
in the first half Of the week, there
have been some twelve additions to
the church and the pastor and Wis
iting evangelist are hoping for yet
greater results before the singing Of
the final doxology which shall dis
miss this particular series Of SER
vices.
