SWEET CAPORALS STILL
CIGARETTE FAVORITE

Few men, as they grip their favo-
rite cigar or cigarette and puff en-
joyingly, remember their first flirta-
tion with Lady Nicotine. If they could
they undoubtedly recall how, as a
boy, and possessed in some mysteri-
Gus way of package of cigarettes,
they sneaked back of the barn and
initiated themselves into what they
believed to be the rudiments of man.
of -the-world's knowledge. If their ac-
quaintance with the weed came about
in this fashion, it is reasonable to
believe that the cigarette they so
closely guarded and smuggled was
Sweet Caporals. And although per-
haps forty years have passed, Lady
Nicotine never smiles so sweetly as
she did on that long-ago day. Dem
'onstrators are now in the city and are
explaining how Sweet Caporals, first
made in 1878, have stood the test of
time by reason of the high grade to-
bacco and paper used. The sanitary
conditions under which the cigarettes
are manufactured are also explained.

British Labor Party to Frame
New Post Bellum Demands

proposal to create compulsory arbi.
tration of labor disputes.
Immediate negotiations for peace
are demanded by many delegations
but this issue, it. is believed, will have
no great support. A demand thai
women, now replacing men in hun
dreds of occupations, shall be guaran
teed remunerative employment after
the war, is placed in the same clas:
as peace.
If the main issues of the confer.
ence, however, are carried, British
unions will struggle in the future for
stronger institution than the Amer
ican Federation of Labor.
The delegates look to the support
of Arthur Henderson, the govern
ment's labor advisor, who is also sec
retary of the Labor party. Hender-
son, four months ago, called upon
every union council in the British
Isles to lay down it's ideas for labor's
postwar program. The resolution be-
lore the conference today sum up the
situation.

(By United Press)

Manchester, England, Feb. 1.-The
eyes of capital and labor throughout
Europe are focused ON the Sixteenth
Annual Conference of the British La
Dor Party here today.
What labor shall demand after the
greatest war in history was the clear
cut issue.
Resolutions before the conference
today indicated that labor will fight
to remold shattered industrial rela-
tions more radically than ever in la
boris favor. Revolutionary demands
will. be made on the government.
1t had been practically decided be-
fore the hundreds of delegates assem-
bled that when rehabilitation throws
hundreds of thousands of workers
back into the industrial boiling pot,
the unions will demar,d that the gov
ernment provide work for every man
who left his job on account of the
war. Immediate restitution of the
full rights and privileges of unions,
withdrawn during thes war, will also
be asked.
A demand for general eight-hour
day and minimum wage is believed
sure to pass the conference. 1t is
equally decided that the unions will
demand the nationalizati tion of produc-
tive industries, mines, ETC., radical
educational reform, profit sharing
schemes and other things.
Numerous resolutions, so far |
framed, repudiate the governments

LEY-WILLIAMS
CO. WILL OPERATE
ARGYLE HEAVILY

The shaft on the Argyle, adjoining
the Elkhart mine on the north, is
being equipped with gallows frame,
this week, and a 6 horse power hoist
placed in operation. This temporary
plant will be used to unwater the shaft
and finish the retimbering necessary
before permanent mining operations
can commence.
The Chloride Argyle Mining COM
pany has been organized by the Cop
ley-Williams company, owners of the
ten year lease on this ground, to take
over and operate the lease. The new
company is also acquiring other de-
srable ground which will be owned
outright by the company. Parties are
expected to visit the camp within
few days who will investigate the Arg
yle before completing arrangements
for the financing of a big campaign
of development.

SEEKS COOPERATION
OF SCHOOL CHILDREN

DENVER, Colo, March 22.-Co-op-
Grafton of the school children of Colo
race viii be sought by Mrs. Mary C.
C. Bradford, state superintendent of
public instruction, to cut down the
cost Of living under a plan suggested
By Dr.. Z. P. Claxton, commissioner of
education in the department of the in
terror at Washington.
Mrs. Bradford will outline the Clax-
ton plan for vacant lot and backyard
gardens to the county superintendent
Of schools and ask them to enlist the
teachers in an effort to direct the
children in the planting and cultiva-
ton of gardens.
In the public letter from Doctor
Claxton it is stated that there are ap-
proximately 100000 boys and girls
between the ages of 9 and 16 years
who have virtually nine hours time
each day outside of school hours, part
of which could be devoted to the rails
ing of vegetables.
Doctor Caxton estimates that these
children can provide an income of SIS
a year each by this method and he
thinks cultivation of gardens will to a
large extent prevent criminal tenden-
cies and encourage industry.
Mrs. Bradford is enthusiastic over
the plan and hopes before summer to
have teachers in every county of the
state enlisted in the army to fight the
high cost of living. Superintendent
Carlos M. Cole of the Denver public
schools also is arranging to put into
effect DR.. Claxton's suggestions in
Denver.

HUGHES PLANS
OPERATIONS ON
BOBBY BURNS
tFrOn Fridays Daily Miner,

Superintendent F. w. Jacques, of
the Bobby Burns property, last week
purchased the mechanical equipment
of the Commanche mine for immediate
installation on the Boldly. The equip
ment consists of a 25 horse power
hoist, compressor and drill mach
inery necessary for sinking a shaft to
the required depth. The road to the
property has been completed and the
machinery will be hauled to the prop
erty so as to be on the ground when
the gallows frame is built. Superin-
tendent Jacques will sink shaft in
the country rock and at various depths
will drift to catch his ledge matter.
The Bobby Burns is considered one
of the most promising copper proper
ties in the Chloride district and the
plans of the Arizona Chloride COM
pany, which is operating it, call for its
immediate development on big scale.
John B. Hughes, president of the COM
pany, accompanied by W. D. Rawson
of Salt Lake and E. Martin Thornley,,
the engineer, examined the property
last week to complete the plans for
its development. Mr.. Rawson exam
ined the property in the interests of
Salt Lake clientele.

(By 'HAM" SMITH)
(From Friday's Daily Minerl

Fred Mitchell and his band Of Chi
cago Cubs will drop off of Santa Fe
train No. % Monday morning to
tangle with the Kingman ball team.
Arrangements have been made to
take the noted baseball players to the
Wrigley mine, where they will be en-
tertained at luncheon.
Who wouldn't walk from one end
of the county to Kingman to see the
Cubs perform? Vic Safer, one of the
best hitters in the game and ranked
as the best first baseman in the Ma
tional league, will be seen in action.
Rollie Zeider, the cable" Bale of the
visiting team, will be among the visi-
tors. ''Rollie" is declared to have the
longest nose of any ball player alive,
and when he dies no doubt his picture
will be seen m the hall of fame.
''Rowdy" Elliott, who can do more
Grabbing in a minute than Harry
Price can in a month, will be in evil
dence. Charlie Deal, who took "Red"
Smiths place on third base for the
Boston team in the worlds series
against the Philadelphia Athletics,
will perform, as will Al Demaree, Har-
ry Wolter and a dozen other well
known ball players.
Roy Brashear, one-time member of
the Cleveland American league team
and later second basemaE for the Yer
non Pacific Coast league team, of
which he was one of the hardest hit
tiers, will probably cover second for
the Kingmanites. Tommy Clark or
John McKesson will probably start in
the box for the locals with Price or
Robinson on the other end.
Every business house in the county
will close for the big game and rec
ord breaking crowd no doubt will greet
the two teams when they line up for
action.
Whatever you do, don't forget the
date and time-Monday, March &c, at
2:30 pm.
