JOBS FOR THE BOYS WHO WENT
TO THE BORDER.

The reception given the Second Reg
iment of Idaho Volunteer infantry up
on it's. return from months of arduous
duty along the Mexican border must
have been gratifying to the returning
soldiers and it was certainly creditable
to the people of Idaho, showing con-
clusively that the wells of patriotism
were not pumped dry in the enthusi-
astic farewell given the boys upon
their departure for the front. Indeed,
the record of the Second Idaho has
been such that every loyal citizen of
the state is filled with pride which Is
manifested in the warmth and sin
certify of the welcome which has met
the returning soldiers at every point.
In few days the regiment will be
mustered out of the service and the
boys will return to their homes to
take up the duties of civil life That
those who enlisted from north Ida
no will receive the same hearty greet
ing that has been given them in the
south is assured. Many of the volun-
teers left good positions in response to
the call of their country, and these
will no doubt return to their old posi-
tons. Others were without perman-
ent employment and will leave the SER
vice in pressing need of jobs, The pay
of soldier does not permit of a rapid
accumulation of cash and most of the
Idaho men must have the means of
making living at once. Judged by
the attitude of the mining companies
in this district in the past, 1t is only
necessary to call attention to the stu
alton of these returning soldiers to
have them provided with employment.
In this connection it may be stated
that the Oregon Short Line, the rail-
way system which covers the whole
of south Idaho, has given orders to re-
store all former employees who were in
the Second Idaho to their old positions
and to give preference and as far as
possible make places for the soldiers
who seek employment That shows
splendid spirit and we expect to see it
duplicated by the large employers of
labor in north Idaho.

PEACE AND WALL STREET.

mining and Scientific Press)
German peace overtures have done
as much damage as an army corps on
the war path. Wall street cut q sor-
ry figure during the ten days in which
1t was at the mercy of peace and ru-
mors of peace. The peace scare, as it
is pathetically called, must have caus-
ed a great many million dollars to
change hands and to that extent made
it brokers' holiday, but it was a poor
spectacle. However in Japan. they do
things even worse The Toxic stock
exchange had to be closed after one
of the most riotous days in it's his
tory" OF course, we do not know how
riotous Japanese brokers can become,
but judging from their prowess in the
field of battle, We may assume that it
was some riot Meanwhile thought
full men must be asking each other
what will happen when the dove of
peace is seen if such a weller of
speculative panic can ensue from a
sound that Is not particularly like the

ALLIES ARE NOT IN A coMPRo-
Missing MOOD.

The answer of the allies to the kais-
er's peace proposal leaves nothing to
be explained 10 make clear their atti-
tude toward the central powers, and
indirectly toward President Wilson.
There win be no peace conference
with the allies a party 10 II that is not
based upon complete reparation, resti-
tuition and guarantees on the part Of
Germany and her allies. and the guar
antees must be of nature that can
be enforced. The reply embodies the
sentiments expressed by the principal
allied powers singly Immediately fol-
lowing the receipt of the peace pro-
posal The attitude of the allies Is
vigorously and conclsely stated in the
following paragraph taken from their
reply:
Fully conscious of the gravity of
it's requirements, the allied govern
ments, closely united to one another
and in perfect sympathy with their
peoples refuse to consider a proposal
which is empty and insincere"
That the kaiser realizes that the cen
trail powers can never win the strug-
gle was evident when he asked for a
peace conference hoping to in meas
ure at least dictate terms while posing
as a victor and magnanimously con-
ceding a voice in the terms of peace
to his allied enemies. But the allies
were not misled by the kaiser's mag
nanimity, and they come back with a
flat refusal to consider peace until the
purposes for which they are fighting
are accomplished, viii the kaiser re-
spond by making further concessions,
or will it now be struggle until one
side or the other is in position to name
the terms of peace and force accept
ance?
Indirectly the reply of the allies to
the peace proposal renders formal
answer to the peace note Of President
Wilson unnecessary except as diplo-
matte courtesy. President Wilson will
clearly understand that the allies re-
sent his interference, that they repud-
late his definition of the purposes for
which they are fighting, and that when
they desire the friendly offices of the
president they will make their wishes
known.

THE MORNING AFTER.

mining and Scientific Press)
II. G. L. is a western Authorization
for the high cost of living, concerning
which lot of nonsense is being writ
ten in blind disregard of the fact that
1t is mainly the consequence Of love
of luxury that period of excessive
prosperity has engendered. Unless we
are much mistaken this confusion Of
ideas extends to the mining industry,
in which the intensive exploitation of
ore reserves is causing an extrava-
gance in management that is not all
due to the high cost of machinery or
supplies, but is traceable in large part
to the rush to become rich, that is the
haste to earn dividends. When the
orgy of production is over, the mana
gers Of mines will have to face all the
dreariness of the proverbial morning
after. Whether the cutting of mines
is commendable or not depends upon a
fundamental difference of opinion as
to whether it is proper to realize up
on the ore in a minimum of time and
a maximum Of immediate profit or to
operate property as an investment
that will last for human lifetime. In
this, as in other matters, sane econ
omy lies between the extremes.

ELEcTRoLYTIc ZINC.
Efforts Being Made to Interest East

Sih SoPiedI TIdHIs
Several months ago it was announc-
ed in this paper that statistics were
being gathered on the present and
probable output of zinc from this dis
trict, having in view the erection of
an electrolytic plant on the Spokane
river below Spokane. In furtherance
of this enterprise it is learned that H.
S. Stoolfire, an attorney of Spokane,
who has given much attention to min
ing, is now in the east endeavoring to
secure the necessary financial sup
port Mr.. Stoolfre owns the old smell
ter plant and site about seven miles
below Spokane, and also water right
on the Spokane river capable of de-
veloping large power. 1t was his
original plan to utilize this for the
proposed plant, but it is learned now
that he received such favorable
proposition from the Washington Wa
ter Power company to furnish 10000
horsepower or more for period of
years that it will be accepted rather
than install new power plant. The
promoters of the enterprise figure on
being able to successfully compete for
the zinc ores of this district and also
upon getting the zinc of northern

NORTHERN LIGHT.
Strike on South Vein Is Proving to Be
Bonanza.

Ben G. Harmon, manager of the
Northern Light Mining company, was
up from Pine creek the first of the
week. He reported the east drift on
the vein recently encountered on the
400 level having advanced about 1875
feet and that the showing of ore is
even better than where the veiA was
cut. The shoot averages rs feet wide,
feet of which he says is clean ship
ping ore, while the remainder is of ex-
cellent milling grade. The large flow
of water in the west drift made it ne
cessary to suspend operations there
until increased pumping capacity Is
provided. The great ore shoot that is
being developed, together with the
large amount of ore available in other
parts of the mine, has caused the COM
pany to begin plans at once for a mill
which will be constructed as early as
practicable in the spring.

During the last few months Jesse
Coulter has been engaged in extend
ing the intermediate tunnel on the
Sunset Banner under an option agree
ment for 100000 shares of stock of the
company. Considerable. lead and zinc
ore had been disclosed by former work
in this tunnel and the work Of Mr..
Coulter porved so encouraging that he
entered into negotiation with the COM
pany for a bond on the property. The
negotiations were consummated last
week when the directors of the COM
pany gave him a, bond on the property
for 100000 with provision for imme-
date and continuous development
work. Under the terms of the bond
the first payment Of $4,000 will be
made on September 1, and on March
/, 1918, another payment of $4,000
must be made. Payment of the bal
ance is provided in three installments
of $4,000 each payable in periods OF
six months, the final payment being
September 1, 1919. The Sunset Ban

Plan of Development.
Mr.. Coulter is preparing to begin
work on the property at once. He has
arranged with the Sunshine Mining
company to extend a pipe line from
that company's compressor, just below
the Idora mill, to the lower tunnel OF
the Sunset Banner which will provide
power for the machine drills. The
plan is to continue the crosscut which
has already been run a considerable
distance from near the creek level
This will cut the vein which has been
explored in two upper tunnels at a
depth of about 500 feet below the in
ermediate and considerably east of it.
This tunnel has already cut another
vein which warrants further explora-
ton, and there is third one that will
be intersected. The showing of ore in
the upper tunnels justifies the expec-
tation that the lower level will develop
a large ore body.

Immediately the critical relations with
Mexico gave an opportunity to try out
this pet preparedness measure, 1t is
no reflection upon the national guard
to state that their service along the
Mexican border proved the utter fail
ure of the system. The chief of staff
of the army General Scott, has so
stated in an official report and also in
a hearing before the military affairs
committee of the house. And yet in
the face of this testimony from the
highest military authority. supported
by that of regular officers of the line,
not one move has been made by the
president or congress to remedy the
mistake through the adoption of
practical, effective and comprehensive
plan of preparedness. And this, too,
at time when the presidents secre-
tary of state says we are ION the
verge of war" and the president is
writing peace notes to avert it.
The fact is, and it becomes more
patent every day, that the only sys-

this country to be secure in its defense
in the event of war is universal mill
