Said To Hold Illegally
Fine Riparian Land

Trenton, July 31.-With Governor
Edge present for an hour and taking
active part in the deliberations, the
State Board of Commerce and Navi-
cation held a special meeting yester-
day afternoon to consider it's future
policy on riparian lands owned by
the State. 1t was reported that the
board has discovered more than
1000 illegal occupations of riparian
lands, covering all sections of the
State. 1t is estimated that if the
board proves the hight of the State
to all these lands it will mean an in
come of close to $1,000,0O0.
Situation Important
The situation is an important one
because the interest from all RI
parian moneys goes to the support of
the public schools. 1t is said that
probably in majority of the cases
the States lands have been occupied
through ignorance. Some of the
cases of "squatting" involve large
tracts Of valuable water front prop
erty, while many are such unimport-
ant occupations as small boat
wharves.
One case is that of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company which for
more than six years has had posses
sion of some 400 feet of riparian
land along the Hackensack river,
where it's new line into New York
City through the tunnel crosses. The
board has fixed price of $40 foot
and will prosecute the claim in the
State courts. 1t is alleged that the
Florence Iron Works, at Florence on
the Delaware river, is also an Of
fender.
Prosecute Offenders
President J. Spencer Smith, of the
board, declared to-day that all the
offenders will be prosecuted and made
to pay whatever is due the State. AS
there is much legal work to be done,
the board will likely be allowed spe-
cial counsel. Governor Edge listened
with much interest to this report and
agreed with the board that the cases
should be prosecuted.
The board decided to have all the
riparian lands remapped and put on
a systematic basis, showing every
grant and lease, in order to prevent
"squatting" in the future.
1t adopted the policy that where
persons, corporations or municipali-
ties object to the price put by the
board upon riparian lands applied for,
the board considers a lease or a re-
vokable permit to use the lands, pend
ing final determination in the mat
ter. At present there is no appeal
from the price fixed by the board
and where it has been deemed too
high, the matter has dropped, result
ing in no development Of such tracts.
Act on Palisades Property
The board took steps to meet the
viSssS Of the Interstate Palisades
Park Commission with reference to
the application of the latter body for
the use Of 1900 feet of Hudson river
front lands along the park. AS the
income will go to the school fund,
some of the members of the Com
merce and Navigation Board thought
full price should be charged, even
though it was paying State money
from zone pocket to the other" How
ever, it was decided to accept from
the Park Commission revokable per
nit, that body to pay the State per-
centage of any income derived there
from.

1 rades. having sworn to defend Rus sian liberty, do not renounce the of fensive. Fight and struggle for this liberty, and while fighting and strug- gling fear the enemy's traps. The fraternizing which is taking place at present at the front can easily becone
 a trap. Do not forget that revolu- tionary troops have only the right to fraternize with troops who are also revolutionary and who are also ready to declare for peace and lib- erty.
 l. 'The German army is not revo- lutionary army, it still is blindly following William and Charles, en- perors and capitalists. You are fraternizing openly not only with enemy soldiers but with officers of the enemy's general staff disguised as common soldiers. Peace will not be obtained by separate treaties or by fraternizing of isolated regi- ments and battalions. This will only lead to the loss of Russian revolu- tion, the safety of which does not lie in a separate peace or armistice.
 Reject, therefore, everything which weakens your military power, which abstracts the army and lowers its morale. Soldiers, be worthy of the trust that revolutionary Russia puts in yOu."

The numbers of live stock are larger than ever before.
 "In the present national crisis tt is necessary to bring ill human fool rather than raw materials for food such as feeding stuffs for live stock, which can only be converted into a smaller weight of human food. "Rationing can only be avoided if farmers generally will determine to reduce their individual demands upon | the limited stock of feeding stuffs. The shortage of feeding stuffs wlll

FOOD SHORTAGE IFORCES BRITAIN

 Government Control.

Correspondence Associated Press.)
 London, May 1-Shortage of food for animals, due to lack of shipping resulting from the German submarine warfare, threatens to put the cattle, sheep, horses, swine and poultry of the British farmers on compulsory rations. Warning that the farmer must be prepared for reduction this year of 100000 tons in the amount of feeding stuifs for animals has been given by R. E. Prothero, president of the board of agriculture. He declares that, unless the farmers heed his warning and place their ami mals on restricted rations, the com pulsory ration system will be applied. This system has been in force in Germany for two years.
 Here are some of the "dOnts" 10 farmers, issued by the board of agri- culture:

EAST CALEDONIA.
Rapid Progress Being Made in Sink.
ing Shaft From 400 Level.

Work at the East Caledonia is now
limited to sinking the shaft from the
400 level, the purpose being at this
time to extend it 200 feet, where a
new level will be opened. Yesterday
the bottom of the shaft was reported
ITO feet below the 400. The East
Caledonia vein has been explored by
drifts on the 200, 300 and 400 levels,
and the amount of ore has steadily in
creased with each lower level. On the
400 there is decidedly more ore than
at any point above, so much, in fact,
that the management felt justified in
going 200 feet deeper, where it is re-
garded more than probable that COM
mercial ore will be found. The East
Caledonia. company has one of the
most complete plants for the work for
which it is designed in the district
Electric power is applied to the hoist,
pump and drills, and the efficiency de-
veloped is indicated by the fact that
working in the drifts there We're only
nine men, all told, on the payroll and
the average drifting amounted to 245
feet per month.

Concentrates Garry
About 20 p. c.

Outlook for Profitable Oper-
alton Looks Very
Bright
THE NATIONAL MILL starte

THE NATIONAL MILL started
running on October Il, Since
that date five carloads OF
concentrates have been shipped
and another ear is being load
ed today At the present
rate the management expects to ship
two more carloads by the 14th. max
ing eight carloads of concentrates dur
ing the first month. Considering the
numerous delays that have occurred
since the mill started, for there were
many changes and adjustments to be
made which consumed much time, this
is regarded as most satisfactory re-
cord. The amount of ore going through
the mill has been steadily increased
from the start. and at this time it is
handling about 240 tons per day. This
will before long be increased to 300
tons with only half the mill in opera
tion. From so to rs tons of ore per
day is coming from the 1900 level and
the balance from the upper slopes. A
new level is being opened at 400, but
it has not yet reached the vein.
Outlook Good.
Smelter returns have not been re-
ceived for any of the shipments. 1t
has been stated that National con-
centrates carry about 20 per cent cop
per and 55 ounces of silver, and also
a little gold. Assuming that these
figures are correct, the value of 40
ton car of National concentrates
should net in the neighborhood of
$4,000. Altogether the outlook for the
National is exceedingly bright, and the
opinion is becoming more firmly es
tablished that the property which first
proved so disappointing is now enter
ing upon period of profitable opera
ton.

TRANK QUAY, formerly vice

years foreman of the mine, has
been renewing acquaintance with old
time friends in this city during the
week. Mr.. Quay is now manager of
the Commonwealth Mining company
which is developing property near
Hayden lake and which has of late
been the subject of much favorable
comment. In speaking of the plans of
the company, Mr.. Quay stated that
the company had sunk a perpendicular

pany has recently placed an order for
machinery, including an S0-horse-
power boiler, compressor, hoist and
pump, and work in the incline will
start as soon as machinery arrives
The ore is chalcopyrite, running 10
per cent in copper and 25 ounces in
silver. The vein is about 60 feet wide
and bears every evidence of perman-
ence and increasing mineral value

n kONTHLY DIVIDEND of the
NH Hecla Mining company, paya-
lvl Bile on November 20, viii be
cents per share according to
announcement from the office of the
company on November >. The regular
disbursement for the last year or more
has been at the rate of Is cents per
share, The cut in the dividend was
fully anticipated, and there would
have been little surprise if it had been
passed this month, owing to its small
the excess profits tax,
unless its provisions are radically mo-
diiled either by department ruling or
by congress, as now understood will
prove a heavy burden for Hecla, and
the cut in the dividend is the first
step toward preparing to meet its on
erous terms. AS if to make the situa-
ton more difficult for Hecla, following
the passage of the new revenue law
the price of lead began to tumble from
a position already somewhat weak on
account of the failure of the govern
ment to take the amount of lead for
which it had contracted at cents per
pound. The price dropped to 5 4
cents, but has since recovered, being
6s cents bid yesterday with the mar
ket reported strong. What the divi-
dend rate of Heca will be after this
month is a problem that will not be
Solved until an official construction Is
placed on the revenue law in its appli-
cation to mining companies, or until
congress simplifles its terms and, it Is
hoped, modifies them 50 that it will be
a more just and evenly balanced
measure. So far as lead is concern
ed, it is believed that the reaction is
permanent and that the price will be
at a very satisfactory
level.
