New Law Affects
Mine Companies

Corporation Commissioner H. ]
Schulderman recently issued the fol
lowing statement for the attention OF
mining corporations:
For the purpose Of relieving GER
tain mining corporations from paying
fees in some instances claimed bur-
densome, the recent legislative as
sembly enacted a law for their relief.
This law has given to each delinquent
mining corporation the privilege, If
taken advantage of on or before July
l, 1917, of filing all delinquent state
ments and paying a $40 fee for each
year Of its delinQuencies instead of
the graduated license fees required
by the general sttutes of the state.
The law requires every such corpora
ton to furnish all the facts, data and
information set forth in section 6713
of Lords Oregon laws in the form of
an affidavit, and this affidavit should
be accompanied by fee of $40 for
each year that the license fee for the

Opportunity For
Boys in S. P. Work

Ambitious young men possessed OF
a grammar school education have a
wonderful opportunity these days to
enter the railroad service and rise
rapidly. This is the view of e. L.
King, superintendent of telegraph for
the Southern Pacific Company.
War time conditions have brought
about tremendous demand for
transportation facilities. This de-
mand will continue long after the war
closes because Of the period of recon-
struction and rehabilitation will fol-
low.
To meet the problem of securing
trained railroad men and developing
them for responsible positions, the
Southern Pacific Company has estab-
lshed in San Francisco an "agency
school," under Superintendent of
Telegraph King, where an appren-
ticeship course in railroad work is
given and the student at the same
time is paid while learning,
The plan is proving highly success
full. Boys coming from the country
and ambitious to "get a start" mas
ter the course in from three to four
months. Half the time is spent in
the classroom and the balance in act
ual station work. Railroad telegra-
ply and all the duties of a station
agent are taught. Officials of the
company lecture to the students on
all phases of the transportation Dues
tion. There is still room in the school
for more students.
Good paying positions out on the
company's lines await the graduates.
Over sixty young men have acquired
responsible positions in this way
since the school has opened.
