Walter p Chrysler president of the
Buick Motor company. who is in Cali
fornia on important Buick business for
the Pacific coast is the mechanical
genius behind the manufacture of
buick cars His ability TO systematic
both men and machinery has raised
him to the important and responsible
position of president of one of the
largest isdustrial plants of the world,
with a pyaroll exceeding $1,000,000 per
month.
1.-The degree of excellence shown in a
factory's product reflects the degree Of
efficiency developed in it's manufac-
tur," says Mr.. Chrysler, land we are
ceaselessly striving to discover new
short cuts and to devise new labor saw
ing devices that will save seconds in
our constant warfare against time,
and efficiency is the only effective
weapon against the fleeing seconds.
Science is fast revolutionizing old
manufacturing methods. In fact, the
master chemists and electricians are
daily making discoveries that are
changing our very mode of living.
Waste, which in the past was consider
ed necessary evil, is fast assuming the
proportions of crime in the modern
factories, and while chemists have
discovered, for instance, that the smoke
that used to belch from the smoke
stacks of the factories is laden with
wealth, and that sawdust can be
treated in such a manner that it will
yield first class silk. new devices just
as revolutionary are being installed in
our factory.
Inspection Is Careful
Probably more thought and care is
given our inspection department than
any other branch of the factory. Here
science has proven a wonderful help.
The very backbone of an automobile
factory's reputation for quality de-
ponds upon the unvarying quality of its
metals Our saving factor in the cha
otto condition of the steel market to-
day is the facility for heat treating
now in use at the Buick factory, and
back of the efficiency of these i'm
mense ovens are delicate instruments
which record to a fraction of a degree
the intense heat necessary to bring
metals of special alloy to their greatest
degree of toughness. These delicate
temperature recording instruments
are called promoters.

single step, to the efficiency of Light Six.
No matter what rivals claim for other types, the
records show the Super-Six excels them. If the
Super-Six could be used by all, other types would
very likely vanish.

MINING COMPARED WITH OTHER
LINES OF BUSINESS.

II is evident that the public view OF
mining Is quite different from that
which prevailed few years ago. Con
sentative business men who once
stunned investment in mining enter
prises as a wild speculation are now
eager to put their money into min
ing. This is due to the fact 1t is uni
versally recognized that mining as now
conducted conforms to careful business
principles and investments are as
carefully guarded as in any other line
of industry, which taken with the
large profits makes it the most at
tractive investment. The following
from an exchange makes some inter-
esting comparisons
1T is about time that people quit
talking of the mining industry as q
gamble. Mining is business, and
and Dun agencies are au-I
thority for the statement that only
SO per cent Of all legitimate mining
Investments fail as against "a per cent
In general commercial lines. What
other business can show the profit

especially copper mining? Govern

LIBERTY LOAN BONDS-PATRloT.
&c AND SAFE.

The patriotic nature of an invest
inent in the Liberty loan bonds of 1917
is something that all Americans will
consider The fact that in purchasing
such a bond the investor is lending
his money to his government--to his
country-to prosecute great war,
gives the investment dignity that
the ordinary investment does not pos
sess. The uses to which the money
is to be put, the noble purposes to
which ii is to be devoted, all are
things which appeal more or less to
the American heart
But let no one be led by these con-
siderations to look on buying Ii
berry loan bond as a piece of bene-
Violence or merely contribution to a
worthy cause. The Liberty loan bond
is as good an investment as an Ameri-
can citizen can well make The rate

elIzANE CARNEY COPPER COM.
PANY FORMED BY PIONEER
7RosPEcToR- MINER,

JAMES CARNEY, of Mullan, was in
the city few days ago and gave
some particulars regarding the
Elizane Carney Copper Mining
company, which was organized last
April with capital stock of 1000, 900
shares of the par value of ten cents,
the stock being non -assessable. The
property of The company is about three
miles east of Mullan, near the IS"
bridge, and consists of three claims
with two well defined parallel veins.
In speaking Of the plans Of the COM
pany, Mr.. Carney stated that 1t was
the purpose of the incorporators to
make this a proposition for working
people and as far as possible to keep
the stock out of the hands of brokers
and spectators, giving the stock
holders a fair run for their money by
putting every dollar possible into the
development of the property. The
company has placed 100000 shares in
the treasury for development oul poses,
but Mr.. Carney, who is the principal
stakeholder, before this stock is offer
ed, will sell 100000 shares of personal
stock and place the proceeds at the
disposal of the company for develop
ment purposes.
Many Years Experience.
In speaking of his experience Mr..
Carney stated that he has been pros
pecting and mining for thirty seven
years. In 1881 and 1887 he and his
associates sold the Lady ODonnell and
War Dance mines at Leadville, and
later the Emery group in the Wood
river district. Idaho. Since then he
has been in the Occur d'Alene district
most of the time and has. to his credit
the discovery and location of several
well known properties. The property
he is now preparing to develop through
the Elizane company is regarded as
one of real merit, and parties who may
be interested and who do not know
Mr.. Carney personally are referred by
him to Mrs. Martha Wheatley, of Null
Ian; Daniel Harrington, of Wallace,
and Charles Hissey, of Spokane, for
information regarding his reliability
and honesty. The management of the
company will be in the hands of Mr..
Carney. J. f. Sherrard, of Mullan,
is secretary.

WAR AND BUSINESS.
Boston Transcript

The war should not hurt business
That is to be said deliberately and adj
visedly, with this addition, that if il
does hurt business, that will be the
fault of business men. To say that
Is not to minimize the seriousness or
the magnitude of the war, or its tre-
menduous cost to this nation. 1t is
merely to present ~an economic fact
which should be quite obvious to every
thoughtful observer.
Business consists in the operation
of the law of supply and demand. That
is to say, some men produce things
and sell them to others who purchase
ard Consume them. That, reduced to
the last analysis, is all there is in bus
mess; with, of course, the services of
those who act as necessary informed
iaries between the two classes. When
the demand is large and the supply Is
adequate. business is good. When both
demand and supply are small, bust
ness is bad. When the demand is large
and the supply is not so large, prices
are high, though business is not nee
essarily bad. When the demand is
small and the supply is greater, prices
are low. but neither is business then
necessarily bad.
Now, what is the outlook for the
war? Certainly the demand for COM
of all kinds will not decrease.
1t will not be small. 1t will on the
contrary be larger than ever. Because
of the increased demand abroad, 1t has
been increasing steadily ever since the
war began, and with our entry into the
war 1t will increase still more. As for
the supply, we see no reason for anti
cipating any decrease. On the con-
trary, very considerable increase of
it to meet the increased demand, is
about as certain as anything can be In
human affairs. Therefore we shall |
have the conditions already described |
in which the demand Is large and the
supply Is also large, whether quite
adequate or not; and In those condi-
ions, business is good.

CHICAGO. BOSTON.
Crosscutting Vein Has Disclosed
Strngers of Ore.

Stringers of Ore.
Highly encouraging reports have
been received from the Chicago Boston
property, on Lake Gulch, a mile and a
half west of this city. After sinking
shaft about 100 feet, a drift was
started to get under the large body
of lead-silver ore that has been dis
closed in the lower tunnel. The drift
followed alongside the vein and when
well under the portal a crOsscut was
started to intersect the vein. A rich
streak of ore was soon encountered
and it is believed that this is the fore
runner of large body of ore when
the ledge is crossed. A crosscut is
also being run from the lower tunnel
to intersect the rich gray copper vein
which parallels the. lead. In the up
per tunnels this vein shows much ore
running very high in silver and 1t is
confidently expected that when expos
ed in the lowest tunnel it will show
the same high values and perhaps a
larger body. The Chicago Boston is

No bugle's call can wake this sleep

Nor rouse to action these poor, tired
feet;
The clash of musketry, the battles

Breaks not on him who in this calm
retreat
Keeps sacred VOW
Sleep on, thou hero in the strife

And Union true
And when the record of this world is
complete
And war and bloodshed are forever

And shout welcome to that peace

From lakes to Mississippis mouth.
We all are one.

Sleep on and take thy rest within the

of interest 1t bears may seem small,
but when It's absolute safety is con-
sidered and the fact that It Is non
taxable, and the further fact that 1t is
to be immune from any taxes which
later on may be levied by reason of
this war; and still another fact that in
case the United States government
should later during this war have to
borrow more money and pay higher
rate of interest. that the holders of
these bonds can secure bonds bearing
that higher rate-when all these things
are considered, an investment in Lii
berty loan bonds possesses advantages
that no other investment in the world
possesses.
There is another point which wise
and thoughtful people will give due
consideration to and that Is an in.
Vestment IN Liberty loan bonds Is an
investment in the defense and preser-
walton of all their other property and
all they hold dear-,the preservation of
their liberties. We would be in dan
ger, If all our citizens refused to lend
their money to the government. of
losing all that we have--our property.
our liberties, and our national honor.
1t has come to this, that we must
fight for these things and to wage war
in this day and time requires not only
men and arms but great sums of
money. :.
Subscribers to Liberty loan bonds
are charter members Of a society to
maintain American honor and to main
tain democracy here and in other parts
of the world. Honor and interest,
and business judgment all
argue the wisdom of an investment in
Liberty loan bonds.

PREPARE TO SUPPRESS FIRST
SIGN OF DlsloYALTY.

News comes from Boise that the
state authorities have received infOr-
nation that the socialists In some
parts of the state are preparing to
resist CONSUMPTION. The law says that
all male citizens between 81 and 81
years of age shall register. There
Is no authority for any officer to force
one coming within the age limit to re-
gister. but If he fails to do so then he
IL subject to arrest and upon con-
viction of failing to register shall be
imprisoned for one year, this process
automatically registering him for mill
tary service. The choice then Is with
the man of military age, who can eth
er register voluntarily or do so in
voluntarily by way of Jail sentence.
We hope that the report from Boise
10 without foundation. but the dis
turbance already being created in some
of the eastern cities by anti war So
cialists gives some color to the re-
port. Many socialists throughout the
country are giving the most loyal sup
port to the government, and we hope
that this will be the record that will
be made by the socialists of Idaho.
But these are times when every cit
izen must display the flag he follows.
He cannot travel under two flags. He
must have but one and that one must
be the stars and stripes. The man
who resists registering and who uses
his influence to prevent others from
registering is disloyal to the flag and
an enemy Of the government. There
Is no middle ground; he is either for
the government Or against it.
Officers of the law should be on the
alert to stamp out the first attempt at
agitation against CONSUMPTION and anti
war talk, and every loyal citizen
should be prepared to give the officers
all necessary support in the perform
ance OF this most necessary duty.

Ore hauling was started from the

ject, has placed one Of his large motor
trucks on the run and is bringing the
ore down in three ton lots at regular
intervals, says the Wardner- Kellogg

practically all of the underground
equipment used in the stope, besides
filling the chutes and manways. No

it will take considerable time to patch
up the ground and get back to normal
conditions.

II 1t Is true that Idaho democrats
who have heretofore been regarded as
probable senatorial candidates have
agreed to withdraw from the field in
favor of Ex-Governor Hawley, then II
may be safely assumed that the
chances Of electing a democratic sem
ator are very slim Such magnanim-
ity has never been known among the
democrats of Idaho when there was
a reasonable hope of winning an cleo
ton.

Nothing finer has developed in con-
nection with the war with Germany
than the spirit in which Colonel
Roosevelt accepted the decision of the
president against sending him to
France at the head Of a brigade of
volunteers. He Immediately advised
the men who were eager to follow him
to enlist in whatever branch Of the
service they could qualify and placed
himself at the service of the govern
ment to contribute in every way pos
sible to the success of the war His
disappointment was deep, but It cast
no shadow upon his splendid loyalty
to the country.

DISCUSS PROBLEMS OF WAR ON
INFRINGEMENT DAY.

!
Secretary Lane. of the department
OF the interior, has circularized the
country with letter, accompanied by
a list of themes suggested for dis
cussion by educational institutions In
commencement day exercises 1t is
desired that prominence be given to
the discussion of the causes and pur-
poses Of the war. and the list of re-
fsrences given will assist in the pre-
paration of such discussions.
The list includes subjects bearing
on our relations with European coun-
tries and South America, national
problems dealing with food supply and
control, mobilization of our resources,
how each one can help, democracies,
the questions which peace will bring
forth, etc. Through some oversight
no suggestion is made relative to a
discussion Of postwar trade, a topic
Of prime importance which should
have been included.
On the whole. however the list of
subjects suggested is admirably CAL
culated to stir up the mentalities of
our graduating classes, and Mr.. Lanes
appeal should meet with nation wide
response. 1t should be everlastingly
ground into the very fiber of American
students that German victory would
mean the deathblow to individualism.
They should be acquainted with the
steps taken. and to be taken, to avert
such a worldwide disaster. They
should know that unless we follow the
example of our allies and foreswear
he days of silken ease the iron heel
IF the Hun may yet stamp us into our
,wn sod.
Our students should select subjects
rom the Lane list for their graduating
ssays. Our teachers should use them |
n farewell addresses to the gradual
ng classes. Baccalaureate sermons
holud be based on them. The chair
IAN Of the school commission should
one or two of them in his
nnual advice to the young. From
he little red school house In the val
" to the stately marble alma mater
n the hill. these subjects should be
scussed and pondered. The times |
re very serious. and our student body d
