LEAK HEARINGS
TRAN5F ERRED To
NEW YORK TODAY
lRepublican A. p. Leased wirel


WASHINGTON Jan. 21.-With the
peace note leak investigation trans
ferred to New York administration
leaders in congress are breathing sighs
of relief because the attention of mem
bers generally now can be concentrated
upon the clogged executive program.
House and senate leaders are just as
anxious as President Wilson over the
press of important business remaining
on the calendar with the session half
over and there is no secret made of the
fact that all of them earnestly desire TO
avoid an extra session of the sixty
fifth congress.
Tomorrow, responding to the piesi
dents personal appeal for action at
this session on important legislative
proposals the steering committee of
the senate will endeavor to arrange a
program for the remainder Of the ses
sion and for longer day and possibly,
night sessions a caucus of democrat
ic senators will be called later in. the
week to ratify steering committee sug-
gestions Democratic leaders agree
that some sort of railroad labor legisla
tion should be enacted and this subject
may be given the right of way over
preceding water power legislation.
Before the house interstate com
organization heads on the railroad leg
islative proposals of representative
Adamson will continue. NOtwithstand-
ing the presidents insistence on such
legislation, the prospect for its enact
ment grows less probable as the time
for adjournment approa nhes. With this
stumbling block out of the way, nearly
all democratic leaders and some of the
republicans of both houses believe that
an extra session could be avoided.
In addition to the press of legislative
business there is a spirited contest just
now among democratic senators over
the majority leadership to be relin-
quished by Senator Kern on March 4.
When the new senate meets in extraor-
binary session Immediately after ad
iournment to pass upon the presidents
cabinet the selection of a new leader
probably will be pressed. A real con-
test between southern and western
democrats has been simmering for sew
eraI weeks. Senator Walsh of Mon
tana is the candidate of the westerners
for the leadership and Senator Martin
of Virginia the choice of the south
erners.

By leaf of your editors, | wish
to explain to you just why | will

have to offer you. ! first will
state that possibly every citizen
of Jackson County of the name
Brown, Hale, Anderson, Draper,

ton. Dudley Brown, who lived

fished for top waters in the
creek. / have heard the grey
squirrels bark. have listened
to the sweet music of the cow
bells. l have hulled the chest
nut, plucked the big red apples
and we'll remember the good
things of that country. The dear
old ladies and gentlemen who
asked me many questions of the
far west, fed me the best of
food, put me to bed on big feath-
er beds. The picture of that
country and its people, my peo-
pie, have always lived in my
mind. While the great West a.
bounds in the opportunities to
make fortune, yet it has not such
people as Jackson County, neith-
er has it the. top waters. cow
bells of musical strains, grey
squirrels and chestnuts, in fact
it is a world to itself and aside
from your country.
Now, my good people. have
labored long and presistently in
this great country of the West.
My efforts have been rewarded
by the accumulation of what
would be termed a fortune there.
| have invested a part of that
fortune in the Big Copper Chief
Mining Company, in fact. | have
pought 10000 shares of the
stock, or one-fourth interest in
the company. | sold the next
day here in Phoenix GO, 900 shares
of this stock, could have sold
it all here, but | kept for myself
$4,000 shares and 10000 shares
to offer to you people at just
what | paid for it.
This is considered by many
men who are recognized author
tiles on copper to be the great
est copper property known. The
property consists of some 75O
rcres and is fully paid for in
every way. The officers of the
company are Thomas Boyd. Pres
ident. President First National
Bank, Mound City, Illinois, and
two other banks in Cairo. Illinois:
Mr.. S. E. Jordan. Secretary and
Treasurer of the company, is a
wealthy real estate broker; Mr..
R. E. Grace. Vice President is
also wealthy real estate broker.
| bought into the company since
it was organized, but at the next
meeting held | will become a
member of the Board of Direc-
tors, and | will personally guar
antee to look after the interests
of all of you who buy this stock.
The owners of this great proper
ty are rich men. They have
signed an agreement to not sell
this property for less than one
million dollars. There is not one
share of the stock of this CON-
pany being offered on any stock
exchange or by any agent except
as we owners offer it to our home

upon him by his National Gov.
ernment. He daily receives his
mail delivered to him by a Fed.
eral employee. If he is a manu-
facturer or exporter he receives
consular reports and other docu-
ments. If he is a farmer he re-
ceives various bulletins from the
Government. and through the
extension work Of the Agricul-
tural Department he receives
material assistance. He pays his
taxes to the Federal Government
(unless he be wealthy enough Ito
pay an income taxi only in an
indirectsw sway and in 20 great .
mount by paying a little higher
price for some of his purchases.
He serves occasionally on the
juries in the Federal courts. But
as a general thing the Federal
Government asks nothing Of him.
In return for the benefits he de-
rives from Federal Government.
including protection at home and
abroad and what blessings of lib
erty he enjoys, the only return
he is called upon to make is to
stand up when THE Star-Span-
gled Banner" is played and to
cheer a little on the Fourth of
July.
But when the country is at
war the ordinary, average Amer
lean citizen is called upon to show
appreciation of and make return
for the benefits and blessings his
country has secured to him.
When the honor and prestige of
the Nation are at stake. when
the welfare and success of the
Nation are threatened and the
safety of the Nation endangered,
there comes call to which every
true citizen will respond.
Not everyone is called upon to
bear arms for his country. but
everyone is called upon to do
some service for his country.
Some are to fight our enemies on
the seas. some our enemies on
land. some to manufacture the
munitions and other things our
Army and Navy will need, some
to grow products to feed our Ma
ton and our Army and the peo-
pie and armies of our allies.
To see that these things are done
is the duty of our Government
and to accomplish these things
our Government must have large
sums of money to pay our SOL
diers and our sailors, to purchase
things they will need for wei
fare and maintainance, and mon
ey to lend to our allies who have
been hard pressed with the fear
full expenses of three years of
fearful war. This money must
be drawn from the body of the
people; it is neither desirable nor
wise to draw it all from the fin
anciers or the wealthy of the
country. nor would it be patriotic.
This Liberty Loan" should be a
loan of the great body of the A
merican people. and not from on
ly one or several classes. The
more the people finance the Gov
ernment the less dictation there
can be from special interests.
The money to meet the immed-
late need of the United States in
this war is to be raised by the
sale of Liberty Loan bonds. 1t
is not to be sent abroad. but to
be expended in America. and il
will go back into the pockets of
the people whence it came in re-
turn for their products, their Ia
Dor, their manufactures. The
people of no nation ever before
had so magnificent q chance to
do the patriotic thing. the loyal
thing, the noble thing, and 1t
