\ Country of Strong Men

Imperial Valley people have reason
to be proud Of the men who have been
called to the colors from the homes
and farms of the valley. One look
over the hundreds who have been as
sembled here for the examination is
sufficient TO make the blood of the
loyai yailsyite run faster and to give
him the feeling that with men Of the
class being sent to the front the coun-
Try is assured Of real soldiers.
This is not country Of weaklings,
hut is populated by young men Of
brain and Drawn; men fit TO fight the
desert in the battle for existence and
men also fit to fight for the old flag,
side by side with the soldiers of any
nation on earth.
The spirit Of patriotism is not lack
ing. Many, it is true, have applied for
exemption, but most OF them because
they felt the need was greater for
them at home for the support of then
wives and children than at the front al
this time, but many who have asked to
be discharged now will be ready,
should fortunes Of war and the honor
of the old flag demand II. 10 willingly
leave wives and children and march
to the front. Many. even il exempted
now, will he found later, should the
need arise, volunteering for service.
This is the American spirit--the spirit
which won at Lexington and Bunker
Hill and which has animated Ameri-
cans each time the call to arms has
been sounded.
No matter what the merits Of the
war may be or what individuals may
think, there viii be no asking Of the
reason why. The nation needs men
and has called them and they wiii
respond and having responded vii
fight with that same battle-w winning
yalor which has marked American sol

PRINTERS HAVE GATHERED
RIG MEETING COMMENCES To-
DAY AT COLORADO SPRINGS
Celebration of Silver Anniversary ei
Printers Home Held There
at This Time
,By Associated Press

Colorado Springs. Aug. l3.-Meet
ing here to celebrate the silver ami
versary of the founding Of the Union
Printers Home. the siXty-third annual
of the international Typo
graphical Union will begin tomorrow.
Visitors have been arriving in large
numbers since yesterday. The off
cial party, including the internation&l
Officers of the organization and many
convention officials. will arrive to-
morrow.
Since yesterday the printers virtu-
aly have owned the town. Saturday
was registration day and from an ear
ly hour parties Of delegates, visiting
printers and their friends besieged
the official headquarters securing
badges. souvenirs and coupon books
admitting them to the various enter
tainments arranged for the city ;
guests.
Eight hundred unions are entitled
to send one or more official delegate
each 10 the convention, according 10
their size. and convention officials said
it was doubtful if there was one which
had not availed itself Of this right.
Beside these, there are many printers
who have made holidav-time. making
Colorado Springs their vacation goa.
Many Of the visitors haT. brought
their families. Because OF the crow,
some are finding lodgings in Pueblo,
near here.
Under the custom Of the union
which requires holding OF the con
vention IN this city every tenth year,
the meeting should come here in 1916,
but the session here was postponed
d year that the silver anniversary OF
the home might be celebrated by as
large gathering Of union members
as possible.
Business sessions Of the convention
will begin tomorrow morning, addfes-
ses Of welcome and a musical program
comprising the program Of the firsr
session. Tomorrow afternoon addres-
ses by a number Of prominent mem
bers of allied crafts are on the pro-
gram. Tuesday will be Colorado
Springs day. with d trip to a nearby
resort as the chief event. On Wednes-

mainder Of the week viii be devoted
To convention business. The Lads
Auxiliary Of the Typographical Unior
also will hold its convention here dur
ing the week.

Willing Patriotic Workers

In another direction the willingness
Of the American people TO stand by
the country is shown in the manner
IN which men and women have volm-
teered for hard and trying work with
the local exemption board.
DAY after day and night after night
busy men and women have been found
at the desks in the exemption offices
working hard and faithfully without
promise Of anv reward save the know
ledge Of duty done and their con-
tribution to the great cause IN which
the nation is engaged.
Men who have been busy all day
in handling big business affairs, have
gone at night; others have allowed
their own private business to drift
while they have given their time to
the work of the board and on every
side there has been willingness to
work and help that is typically Amer
lean.
This same spirit was shown when
the Red Cross called for money. Busi-
ness men and busy women, laying
aside ali personal considerations,
plunged into the work of raising the
money and not only worked but gave
literally. with the result that in every
section of this county, the amount as
signed TO be raised was over-sub-
scribed and is being paid in rapidly
while additions are being made daily
10 the fund.
This united effort is pleasant to see
and it means that we can do almost
anything in this country and especial
ly in this valley.

/. MINING NOTES

The Golden Mining Co. has bonded
the Buckhorn property in the Elk
River country and will install 80
ton mill and cyanide plant in the
spring.
Twenty-six carloads of concentrated
ore have been shipped by the Rex Con-
solidated Mining Co. since the mill
was put in commission a few weeks
ago. These shipments were made to
the teaching plant of the Anaconda
Copper Mining Co.. at Great Falls,
Mont.
Work on the smelter and other build
ings of the Bunker Hill & Sullivan
Mining & Concentrating Co. at KEEL
logg, Idaho, is more than half done,
and it is believed the plant will be
ready for operation in the spring. The
company appropriated $1,000,O00 for
it's construction and equipment
"Construction work incident to
equipping our property at Troy, Mont,
has proceeded satisfactorily during the
year, and we hope to start milling
operations about February L." says
Leo Greenough, president of the Snow
storm Mines Consolidated, in the
course of a circular letter to the stock
holders.
The Frisco mill has been surrendered
by the Federal Mining and Smelling
Co. and will be ready for use as soon
as alterations are completed by the
new owner, the Tamarack and Custer
Mining Co., with which the Day broth
ers are heavily identified. The big
plant is expected to be ready for use
by the time the tramway is completed,
probably within two weeks.
G. w. Capps of Davenport has just
closed deal with Seattle mining men
for his tale property north of Mon
dow, Wash. The property contains
considerable deposits of tale material,
which has recently become valuable in
the manufacture of paper. Work on
the development of the property will
start Immediately and shipments of
considerable amount are planned. Lin
coin county has several large deposits
of like nature, it is said.
