MEN FOR THE MINES.

If the United States wishes to
avoid serious metal shortage at a
critical time it had better get busy
and draft additional workers for the
mines If this is finally done, there
should be a clear understanding III
advance regarding the wages to be
paid to the miners, who shall be
given to understand that they are
quite as much a part Of the army
as If they were actually in the
trenches, and will be held strictly
accountable for all breaches of dis
cipline. Such a thing as strikes In
the army at the front would not be
tolerated.; neither must they occur
in the army Of workers, whose activi-
ties may spell either victory or de-
feat for the nation.-Denver Mining

ONLY ONE SHIFT.

BUTTE, Mont, June 20.-For the
first time in many years the miners
in the Butte district began today to
work on the day Shift only. The
employing companies, because of a
strike which has been called on the

the employees and because so many
have left the mines that the force
willing to work can be accommoda-

The kaiser has had three jolts re-
Gently from the United States. The
biggest was the passage Of the selec-
tive draft law and the registration
Of approximately ten million young
men for service in the armies Of the
nation; the second jolt to make the
kaiser's teeth rattle was President
Wilson's Flag day speech, which was
but an amplifcation of his note to
Russia explaining why this country
was forced into war with Germany
and the only conditions upon which
this country will consent to ending
the war; the third jolt was in the
subscription Of billions of dollars for
the prosecution Of the war.
