BUTTE & SUPERIOR.
Enormous Dividends From the Worlds
Greatest Zinc Mine.

Now that the Elm Orlu suit Is out OF
the way-it is probable that neither
side will appeal-there has been con-
fident buying of Butte & Superior in
anticipation of a generous dividend for
the first quarter of 1916. The expeeta-
tion is at least $40 per share, and pos
sibly $12, says the Anaconda Standard.
OF the company's ability to pay even
ton. First is its strong financial sit
uation, it having entered the 1916 year
with net working capital of $5,000,000.
This is being added to at the rate of
at least $1,000,00O per month, so that
by March 81, when the next dividend
is paid, the company should have at
least $S000,O0O working capitalize
equivalent of nearly $50 per share.
The beauty of Butte & Superior's po-
stion is that earnings for 1916 of from
$35 to $40 per share are practically as
sured from sales of spelter already
made for future delivery. In other
words, no matter what the company
receives for the balance of its unsold
spelter for 1916, these record breaking
earnings will be realized. But with an
average of Is cents for the whole year
the net would be in the vicinity of
$4,000, 900, or say $50 to $54 per share.
The latter is the possibility in Butte &
Superior; the former a practical GER
tainty.
Applying the test of percentage of
earnings to share price, Butte &
Superior shows up much better than
any of the coppers, which are regard
ed by many as selling much below
,heir real value. Earnings of $93 per
share for Butte & Superior would be
46 per cent on present market price
of n; $50 per share would show the
figure of So per cent In
this respect Butte & Superior is prob
ably unique even in this period where
of huge proportions some
times evoke no more than passing

PROSPECT FOR POTASH
WORTH MORE THAN OIL
ADVANCE in PRICE SINCE WAR
MAY ENCOURAGE SEARCH
FOR NEW DEPOSITS.

Well drillers in the United States
may find an opportunity to discover
potash as mere by-product of drill
ing for other materials. This oppor-
tunity, which may be called duty
and which should not be unmixed with
interest, only requires that the driller
shall watch the drill cuttings and salt
waters brought up by his outfit and
thus cooperate with the government
in its search for potash.
The advance in price of potash salts
from the normal rate of about $40 to
over $500 ton since the outbreak of
the war makes still more evident than
before the difficulty as we'll as the duty
of finding this indispensable commod-
ity somewhere within our own vast
domain while the country waits"
The United States geological survey
has devoted part of its energies to
the investigation of rocks and miner
ais containing large percentages of
potash and to the search by the drill
for beds of potash salts that have
been buried during different geologic
periods in the evaporation pans of GER
tain dried-up ancient inland seas and
lakes. The work done has included
the testing of brines and bitterns from
many places, especially from salt-pro-
ducing fields, and the examination of
drill cuttings from wells.
1t is practically certain that beds of
potash Salts if they exist in basins in
the United States other than Searles
Lake, Cal, were laid down in geolog-
ic formations that include beds OF
common salt, gypsum, anhydrite, and
like minerals, just as they were in
Germany and Spain, though the beds
may not be SO thick. The formations
laid down in those ancient seas and
lakes, which by their evaporation de-
posted thick beds of salt and other
minerals, therefore probably afford
the best promise of yielding salts rich
in potash.
Salt Found in Many States.
Beds of rock salt and gypsum occur
in large areas in the United States.
They are found in the Salina rocks
Of New York and Pennsylvania and in
other formations of about the same
age, laid down in Michigan and Ohio
during the periods of great aridity. In
southeastern Michigan a bed of rock
salt 900 feet thick is said to have been
found by drill holes. Dense brines or
salt deposits are found in carbonifer-
Gus strata in West Virginia and other
eastern states, in the "red beds" of
the southwest and the Rocky noun
tains in the Cretaceous deposits of
several of the western states, and in
the Tertiary strata of the far south
west. In many of these regions there
may have been areas where the evap-
Grafton of the water bodies precipitat-
ed potash salts as well as common
salt, though in most of these areas, as
in most of the more recent western
lake beds, the potash was abstract

HALF A LOAF BETTER.

The Baudette Region publishes an
editorial in which it cleverly argues
that because E. W. Chain and Clin-
ton N. Howard assert that county OPP
ton has not been as effective as they
wished that voters should vote
against county option. These lead
ers of the Prohibition movement do
not for minute admit that county
option is no good, but assert rather
that National Prohibition is better.
and so it is! ...
County option is better than local
option; state prohibition is better
than county option; national prohi-
bition is better than state prohibit
ton. But national prohibition is a
big step; the stride cannot be made
in a day. In cast is it not predicted
that national prohibition will come
before 1920, but come it will. In
the meanwhile every little territory
added to what is now "dry" hurries
the cause along just SO much faster.
The "wet" men assert that where
there is county option more liquor
than ever is sold through blind
pigs" drug store saloons, etc. This
result is brought about in their minds
by making up by volume in sound
what was formerly made up by vol

= q
ume in liquor. When bottle of
beer is brought into dry territory it
is paraded in and announced by the
"wets'' as a great evil and a loud cry
goes up. When carload of liquor
goes into wet territory nothing is
said about it.; the only noise made is
the wild babble in the saloons by
the drinkers in their orgy or by the
drunkard singing his way homeward
in the early morning.
If the liquor men believe their
own argument that more liquor is
sold in a dry county than in a wet
county, why do they oppose county
option so bitterly? Are they moved
by philanthropic spirit to reduce
the amount or liquor drank in the
county? Are they spending thou
sands of dollars fighting county op-
ton so that their income from the
sale of alcoholic drinks may be re-
duced? Did you ever hear from a
brewery man subscribing big sum
of money to bring about county OPP
ton? 49, II
Think this matter over when you
go to the polls to vote on the liquor
question, August IA.

A BODY BLOW.

A corrupt practices bill introduced
by Senator Owen of Oklahoma placing
rigid restrictions on money spending
by candidates for office has run the
house gauntlet successfully, and with
the administration solid support, is
waiting to be pushed in the senate
so as to be effective for this years
presidential and congressional cleo
ton.
"You can't buy cigar for an old
time constituent under that BILL" as
serted an indignant house member as
the measure was about to pass there.
It's friends declare it makes slush
funs, jack-pots and expenditures out
of the reach of the ordinary man, i'm
possible
Under penalty of a fine up to $1O,-
900, Imprisonment of not less than
a year, and-in the case of candi-
date for office illegally elected under
it's provisions disqualification for
his office, the bill forbids candidates
to promise offices in return for sup
port; expenditures other than costs
of meetings, literature and other
specified items; corporations or their
officers to contribute to campaign
fund; importing money into con-
gressional district to affect the con-
gressional election; newspaper to run
fc' 10 holm emo III
ads; withdrawal of ads or patronage
from newspaper because of a politi-
cal stand.
A president may not have more
than $4,000 spent to obtain his
nomination; a vice president is linn
tied to $4,000. A senator may
spend $4,000 for nomination or cleo
ton; congressman $4,000.
In addition, the national commit
tees may spend $4OO,O44 for their
presidential tickets, and the national
congressional committees the same
amount. National officers are GRIM
inally liable if more is spent.
No money over $50 may be spent
by any individual for candidate,
acting for himself alone.
When individuals organize into
clubs, they must register with the
clerk of the house of representatives,
keep a public account of all funds
received and paid out and twice be-
fore and once after election file these
expense accounts at Washington
The total any man may spend,
whether as an individual or as club
member, or both, is $4,000.
The fine and Imprisonment clauses
are not discretionary with the court.
Anyone found guilty must be impris-
oned one year. Convicted candidates
too must lose the places to which they
were illegally elected.
Witnesses who testify for the state
are granted full immunity, except for
perjury committed on the stand.
Each and every person who han
dies, receives or pays out money il
legally under this act, is individually
criminally responsible.
Under the bill, elections will be
somewhat different than they have
been in the past.

Park was the speaker for this occas-
ion. and selected for his talk. 'The
Making Of the English Bible" Dr.
Macks appropriate topic on the an
niyersary day of this great society
was an interesting historical sketch of
the wonderful history of the Bible

Eiong,
He explained the handing down of

tee succeeded In bringing in a rule to
hand the Hay bill to conference which
was not subject to a point of order.
Representative Mann. minority leader,
made the point of order against the
bill. but was overruled by the Speaker.
After n number of speeches on both
sides of the question. the business of
voting on the rule was reached, and
the rule was adopted without a roll
call.
Representative Kahn, of California.
ranking Republican on the Military
Affairs Committee. then offered a mo-
ton to recommit the bill to the Mill
tary Affairs Committee, with instruc-
tions to recommend the instruction of
tho House conferees in favor of the
Senate amendment increasing the reg
ular army strength to 100000. Rep
resentative London. of New York, the
only Socialist, leaped to his feet and
offered a motion that the bill be re-
committed, with no other provisions
On the ground that the Socialist
representative was opposed to any
form OF preparedness legislation and
that Representative Kahn had voted
for the Hay bill when it was before
the House. the Speaker recognized the
New York Socialist, inspite Of storm
OF protest Representative Britton. of
chicago, the only Republican who
voted against the Hay bill, then Of
fered the Identical motion made by
Mr.. Kahn, but the Speaker decided
that, under the rules of the House. an
opponent OF the measure must make
the motion to recommit a bill. and
that Mr.. London had been recognized.
Seeing that the fight to put the
House on record on the bigger army
question had been lost, Representa-
tive Mann and his followers refused
to help Representative London in his
effort to merely put the bill back in
the Military Affairs Committee with
out instructions of any sort. and the
motion to recommit was lost by PAS
to 1. The Speaker appointed Repre-
sentatives Hay. Dent and Kahn. of
the Military Affairs Committee, as the
House members OF the Conference
Committee.
