SPEECHES BOOST
LIBERTY LOAN
FOUR-MINUTE MEN ADDRESS
AUDIENCES IN LOCAL
THEATERS

Walter Drabnick made a four
minute Liberty oar speech Sunday
night at the Lyric theater under the
supreme efforts the four-minute
men are now making throughout
the country for the successful flota-
ton of the second loan.
The speaker said that German
spies were watching the people Of
this country at the present time to
see where the loan is going well
and where it's success seems weak,
and what the people are saying in
each community. For the German
government is worried about our
great loan. Those Junkers zeal it's
effect upon the German morale.
We'll, l hope these spies are
getting their messages straight, let
ting Potsdam know hat America
is hurting back to the autocrats
these answers:
For ~treachery, here. attempted
treachery in Mexico, %treachery
everywhere-one billion.
For murder of American women
and children-one billion more.
And then we will add:
In the world fight for liberty,
our share-billions and billions and
endless billions"
Rev. P. J. Cronin of Sacred Heart
church delivered a four-minute
speech Saturday night at the Elk
change theater, taking for his sub
ject the Liberty loan, on which all
four-minute men are now address,
ing audiences. There are over H.
600 men in the entire country de-
voting their time to the delivery of
short speeches on this subject, now
the most important one before the
nation.
Father Cronin said in part:
Are you going to ask your friend
il he has bought a new four per
cent Liberty loan bond? Or are you
going to wait until he asks you?
Are you going to lead or lag? Why
not put out your chest today?
Think Of it. Four per cent or
your money, with the United States
government standing behind you,
the greatest force of all time guar
~anteeing you; the biggest, strong
est power in all the worlds history
protecting you.
You have a sort of mortgage on
every acre and building in the Uni
ted States. Moreover, common folks
are tax free.
Figure it out; tax free, COM
pound four per cent interest. safe,
sure, double safe, gives you back
for every $50 bond, in 17k years,
800 in gold, the money doubled.
For the first time the mighty
; government of the mightiest nation
offers a bargain sale"

OUTPUT
OF GOOD VALUE
LEASES ON VARIOUS PROPER
TIES ARE MAKING EXCEL
CELLENT PROFITS

When the ores of a copper camp
are in sufficiently large bodies and
of such grade that numbers of leas-
ers can successfully operate over a
term of years while paying freight
rates to and treatment charges of
distant smelters, it is certain evil
dence that the camp has real merit.
This is the condition It Luning and
is one of the reasons why the dis
trict commands increasing interest
from those interested in mining the
red metal, the price of which has
been recently fixed by the govern
ment at a figure far in excess of the
average for the past 20 years.
Many of the Luning leasers have
made good money with the invest
ment of small capital, and many of
them have made better than wages
while enjoying the satisfaction of
being their own bosses.
The leasing system was adopted
some time ago by the Wedge Cop
per Mining company at Luning and
one of it's leasers reports having
opened up in his block of ground
which covers 200 feet in the No. /
tunnel, a body of ore of excellent
value. Sinking was started on the
footwall side of the vein and has
attained a depth of IS feet. At this
depth the leaser reports having TAX
en- assays across the bottom showing
values of 12K per cent copper and
three ounces of silver, a gross value
of $62.91 per ton.
Recently the Wedge sampled its
property, assays being made from
samples taken from different points
in it's tunnels, shafts and wines.
The returns, which have been releas-
ed by the officers of the company.
were as follows:
Sample No. 1, across four feet,
total value per ton 5000. Sample
No. 2. across four and one-half feet.
$3.50. Sample No. 3, across six feet,
$6S.O5 (13 Is per cent copper and
$3.50 silver. Sample No. A., across
three feet, $17.25. Sample No. 5,
across four feet, $16.25. Sample
No. 6, across four feet, $12. Sample
No. Z, $500. Sample No. s, from
surface on outcropping vein over
1000 feet from present workings,
$13. Sample No. 8, also from out
cropping vein on top of mountain,
$26.51.
According to the officers of the
Wedge it is now making plans for
the construction of a reduction plant
using the teaching process. Expert
ments are being made at this time
to such an end.
Development work and extraction
of ore continues on the st. Patrick
property of the Kirchen Mines cor
poration. This company reports
good progress of work in the main
working tunnel, with the face in ore
that averages seven per cen cop
per. Cross-cuts will be run to de-
termine its width.-Reno Gazette.

Cash Boy
The Cash Boy Consolidated Mining
company is making progress in it's
cross-cut sOutherly from the drift
running out from the Wine at it's
bottom level, and at the last reports
vein to have been encountered. Up
to date the vein has been penetrated
four feet, showing a splendid grade
of ore for hat distance across the
vein. Conditions in the drift toward
the east from the Wine are about
the same as have been previously re-
ported, very good ore being
tered along the hanging wall of the
vein.
Rescue-Eula
An entirely new showing has been
encountered in the Rescue-Eula Min
ing company at the 11OO-foot level
from the shaft, within the last day
or so, and inasmuch as it had just
been found at the time the report
vas made there has been no Oppor-
tunity as yet to determine to any
extent whatever the Importance of
the change. The cross-cut is out
about 42O feet from the shaft, in an
easterly direction, and the change,
according to the statement of tn"
management, looks decidedly promis-
ing.
Operations have been continued in
the west drift on the 1O5O-foot level
from the Wine, and a better show
ing is reported at it's face, where
the vein now measures about five
feet across, returning better than
the average values.
North Star
The regular routine of develop
ment and exploration work vas fol-

Lowe reports hat the usual satisfac-

Perhaps in some benighted commun-

thing of facts and whacks he does.
Even in those places and in odd times
the Arab youngster came back to his

means. is yet not q trivial one, and u
deserves immediate attention.
The sort OF attention that would be
most satisfactory was illustrated at
Port Jefferson on Sunday, when reso-
lutte army officer who had received
hint of robbery in progress walked up
to a bus loaded with soldiers and asked
where they were going and what they
were to pay for the ride. They told
him that their destination was less
than a mile away and that the charge
was 81 each. Thereupon that OFFICER
ordered the men out of the bus and
told the driver Of 1t that II seen in
that vicinity again his professional ca
reer would come to sudden and per-
manent conclusion. Those were not
the exact words used, but that was
their meaning, and his particular me-
thod of exploiting soldier needs at Port
Jefferson ceased at once.
The dealers who are making like un-
considerable charges for the articles

Eoroettinu Patriotism for Profit.

Fully justifiable complaint is made
by the parents, relatives and friends or
the young men now starting for the
training camps that some Of the
tradesmen dealing in those minor arti-
cles of soldiers equipment which are
not supplied by the government are ex-
plotting them ruthlessly by charging
for the articles in question prices not
warranted by the cost of manufacture
and distribution.
Nobody likes to haggle over purchas-
es of this kind, and in very many cases
there is no time, before the departure
for France or the training camp Of the
young man in whom a special interest
Is taken. for long search through the
shops for one where the, determination
to make the utmost possible profit Is
less in evidence. These facts are real-
lied by conscienceless tradesmen. and
they are taking full advantage of con-
ditions created in part by necessity
and in part by sentiment to make these
purchasers pay anywhere from twice
to four or five times what would be
reasonable prices for the few-the pa
thetically few-thiDgs that recruit IS
allowed to carry in addition to the &C
couterments listed in, the army regula-
lions. va .
It Ia upon the possession Of these
things, however, that the soldier Is de-
pendent for the modicum of comfort
attainable by him in mitigation Of the
Inevitable hardships and tediums or
life in camp and at the front, in many
instances they can be given to him only
by friends not too we'll supplied with
money, and what they cannot buy he
must do without. The matter, though

SCHOLASTIC POPULATION.

The blanks for the enumera-
ton of the scholastic population
are in my office.
All clerks of the advisory board
that have been qualified and
whose qualification has been re-
ported. are expected to call for
blanks during first week in July.
Remember that July is the
month the law sets aside in which
this work is to be done.
You are not expected to go to
some store, or black-smith's S
shop, and there take the schol-
astic population. The law re-
quires that you take the census
carefully and accurately. so go
into each and every house.
In visiting the schools last fall
| listed the number of pupils en-
rolled by each teacher. | found in
some districts several more pu-
pills enrolled than the ennumera-
ton sheets showed. Now this is
a loss to the county. Ihad made

could not be remedied. The
more children, the more money
we get from the state. We don't
