One of the long hauls was that of
5000 men from a camp on the Pacific
coast to the Atlantic coast, a distance
of 300 miles. The movement of these
men was accomplished in a little less
than a week. The men travelled in six
teen sections.
In order to centralize the furnishing
of sleeping cars and to utilize these
cars to the best advantage, the Pull
man Company has changed the super
vision of the supply and movement of
these cars from Chicago to Washing
ton. with c. w. Henry. assistant to the
superintendent of car service, in

To assure the safety of the men in
transit the railroads have adopted an
average speed of twenty-five miles an
hour for ali troop trains. except when
freight cars for the transportation of
equipment are included in the trains.
Then the speed is reduced to twenty

Doubled Foreman's Wages.

Il know of case which came to the
attention of the Secretary Of the Navy.
A contractor had job on the percent
age basis for the Navy Department. He
Immediately doubled the wages Of his
foreman. When Secretary Daniels
heard Of this, he called in the con-
tractor and told him that he would
never again work for the Navy De-
partment. But there have been thou
sands of such instances of absolute
waste of money which have not been
put down as in this case
Senator Weeks of Massachusetts,.
author Of a resolution providing for a
joint congressional committee on war
expenditures. is not inclined to push
his resolution. reported adversely from
the Senate rules committee last ses-
sion, it is reported. But so many tales
Of waste of money have come to the
ears of congressman that there is
bound to be demand for light on war
expenditures.
The hope that the expenditures for
the fiscal year 1919 will be less than
for the present fiscal year is based on
the fact that many of the initial ex-
penditures. such as those for aviation.
$500. 100000, and for shipbuilding.
more than $4,000. 100000. have been
made. and there will not be need for
repeating these expenditures.

contribute to increased value Of his
land and its increased producing
power.
Heretofore farmers have not been
able to borrow for long periods. This
discouraged Investment in live stock
and for many other purposes because
the returns are slow. Short term
loans made a speculator out Of a
farmer.
So the Farm Act in addition to
providing way for the farmer to
borrow to the limit of safety, induces
him to put his borrowed money to
productive uses and provides a way
for him to get out of debt from the
profits of the investment.
Thus the Farm Loan Act places
within reach Of the farmer the
means to help himself and stimulates
his business initiative. The long
time loan with its small annual pay
ments puts a quietus on the terror OF
mortgage foreclosure.

great Mastodon vein, which is from
rs to $50 feet in width, and was
known as the Sunnyside Extension
group previous to being acquired
from Rasmus Hanson, the pioneer
miner, by the Gold Prince Mines
company in 1908. 1t is undoubtedly
on the same vein system as the Gold
King, with the Sunnyside group in
tervening.
The ore bodies are said to be of
immense size in this ground and sew
eral years ago 500-ton mill was
erected at Animas Forks for the
treatment of Gold Prince ore. Be-
,ore the company secured the prop.
erty from i.asmus Hansen, Tx, pro
duction was entirely from re ur-
per levels, alrhtu ugh what is n iown
as the Hidden Treasure Tunnel. Near
the base of the mountain, had been
driven several hundred feet for the
purpose of opening the vein at great
er depth. Most of the ore produced
from the upper levels by Rasmus
Hanson was high-grade, and value of
same is said to have exceeded $780,
900.
After the Gold Prince Mines COM
pany secured the property work was
carried on at n depth of 80 feet be-
low the old workings, and 800 feet
below the apex Of the mountain.
And it is said If the American Zinc
company secures these properties
they will carry on all work from the
lower tunnel of the Gold Prince,
thereby saving long ore haul.
Rumor has it that the change in
ownership of the Sunnysidc will in
volve sum amounting to between
$3,000,000 and s5,000,0O0.
Parties connected with the Sunny
side and Gold Prince refuse to make
any statements denying or confirm
ing the rumor.
