NOW is THE TIME TO PREPARE
FOR COMMERCIAL WAR.

Let us not indulge in the delusion
that when peace shall come foreign
competition will be less formidable
than formerly" said ex-senator Bur-
ton to the National Association of Cot
ton Manufacturers, the other day. And
in the same paper which carried a re-
port of his address appeared the head
lines, England planning to rebuild
trade" Japan after trade in South
Notwithstanding foundations for the
after war business" The Economic
World at about the same time reports
that the German government is MAX
ing frantic efforts to put into opera :
tion plans for getting Germanys for
eign trade promptly in motion upon
the conclusion OF the war" But, with
the prospect Of postwar commercial
war staring it in the face this ad-
ministration drones along, much as it
did when the flames of real war were
licking the hem of Columbia's skirt
Will we too late awaken to the fact
that beyond "No-Man's Land" lies
Every Mans Ground? Must we send
our cohorts of industry into the fields
of trade as poorly prepared as we
send our troops into the trenches
Shall free trade permit our CONNER
cial competitors to enter our front
door and gut the house, while our red
whiskered secretary of commerce
stands at the back door madly wig
wagging for foreign trade opportuni-
ties?' Yes. if we don't get a hustle
on and put some live business men in
charge Of the nations policies.

THE OTHER FELLOW.
Duluth News Tribune)

Once a man had a fistic encounter
with a quarrelsome neighbor. Hurry
ing home much the worse for the wear
hatless, dishevelled, one eye closed,
his nose awry and a bum hand, a
friend greeted him with: Heavens,
John, you look as if you had been
through threshing machine" you
ought to see the other fellow" was
the reply "He was under pile driv-
er, left him to- be carried home"
Just now it is rather popular to
elaborate on the woeful conditions in
France and Great Britain. France is
"bled white" The British are starry
ing. The United States hasn't the
ships to get her men across and sup
ply them; but If she doesn't do this,
then the war is lost The submarines,
"a woeful shake of the head
Granted all this is true, what of the
other fellow? We know about condi-
lions in the other countries, fairly
well. We can make them as gloomy
as is our disposition to do so. Every
sinking is published and the food reg
ulations in France and England are
not concealed.
But if France is "bled white" what
of Germany? We know what is hap
pening every time the two meet at
Verdun, on the Aisne, or in Flanders.
We know what happens when the
Tommies, the Anzacs and the Cana
dams run up against the Huns.
Great as the submarine sinkings
have been, they total but IA per cent
OF the British total. We can read, if
we will, the English port arrivals and
departures. 1t is told that this coun-
try and England are now turning out
and that Uboat losses are fast in
creasing.
1t is not possible to conceal that a
big part of our army that is ready, is
now across Transports that return,
first go over. Neither is it a fact that
transports carry only men. They also
carry supplies.
Our side of the war picture may be
mighty bad. But if it is, think of the
other side. What must conditions in
Germany be? She gathers an army to
hurl at Italy. but to do it withdraws
for miles from her advance in north
ern Russia. Odessa and rich Bessara-
bia lie before her nose. She hasn't
the strength to take them
When inclined to join the "glooms, u
just think of the other fellow

MAY HIS TRIBE INCREASE.
(Grangeville Free Press)

Down in the Salmon river country
there lives a rancher who is genu
inc patriot. Never mind about his
name. He isn't the kind of citizen
who seeks to advertise himself He is
not making big noise about the war
for he is too old to shoulder a rifle
and march off with the boys to
France. But he is not too old to love
the country which has made it pos
sible for this man to accumulate a
modest fortune and to do his bit in
opposing autocracy.
What are they going to do about
price regulation" he asked a visitor
the other day, and then went on to
tell that he had read of the possibility
that the price of hogs would be re-
duced by the government to 10 cents
a pound
Il just sold a bunch of hogs that |
raised for Is cents pound" this pa
triot continued, "and when I sold them
l thought of the poor working man in
the industrial centers of the east, who
has to buy his meat, perhaps at 40 or
so cents a pound
I'VE ranchers in the west are not
suffering from this war;" the patriotic
gentleman asserted. why, we are
living on the fat of the land, and,
while my neighbors are receiving high
prices for their produce, / might as
we'll receive the same. But, by gum, /
should like to see the government cut
the price of hogs to 10 cents and give
the consumer chance to eat"
Idaho county should be proud to
claim such a citizen. He is deserving
of as much praise and honor as are
the boys who have enlisted in the
cause of their country, and men of
his type are vastly more rare. Hats
off to this Salmon river rancher!

THE PRICE OF LEAD.
(Salt Lake Mining Review

tSdll LANE NhiHlllS IACNiV"P
The sudden rise and fall in lead
quotations. of late, had a parallel in
copper fluctuations number of years
ago. Copper advanced with rapid
strides at that time, as many of our
readers will remember, until it attain
ed selling price Of rs cents a pound.
The quotations was altogether too
high and could not be sustained, and
its quick drop to IS cents within a
week almost caused a panic in COM
mercial and industrial circles.
Lead, when it touched II and -
cents a few weeks ago, was altogether
too high, and especially so when one
recalls the fact that the domestic con-
sumption of lead products at the press
ent time has been greatly curtailed,
while the government, it is stated,
can not use half of the current pro-
duction in manufacturing war mater
ials. The impression prevailed in GER
tain sections, however, that lead would
maintain high levels and it is reason
able to suppose that much of it was
bought for speculative purposes. When
it became clear, however, that the de-
mand for lead was not SO urgent as
had been supposed, and as it became
generally known that the government
had contracted for its needs at cents
a pound, quotations began to decline
rapidly until point of 5 cents was
reached. This reaction evidently threw
a scare into the ranks Of the produc-
ers of this metal and they were hard
hit; but it is believed that the slump
can not long endure, and already the
market is showing an upward tendency
and, there is reason to believe will
soon reestablish itself around Z and
cents, at which figures conditions
would be considered as being about
normal, At 5h or even cents, the
producer is at more disadvantage than
when a quotation of cents permitted
profitable production, as since then the
advance in the cost of everything per-
tanning to production, such as labor,
powder, treatment charges and sup
plies of every kind has advanced to
such an extent that a loss is being
entailed on every pound of lead pro-
duced; that is, if lead is the predom-

THEIR LOYALTY Is UNDER SUS-
PIClON.

Several citizens of Wallace have re-
fused TO contribute to the Red Cross,
refused to subscribe fbr Liberty bonds,
and have refused to support the war
work of the Y. NJ. c. A. The usual eX-
cuse is that they could not afford IT,
while some who bought Liberty bonds
offer that as an excuse for not helping
the Y. NJ. C. A. We know that some
of these who plead poverty are delib-
erately making a false claim, while to
offer the purchase Of Liberty bonds as
a reason for refusing support to the
Red Cross and Y. NJ. C. A. is subter-
fuge that has no merit whatever. Lib
erty bonds are gilt edge interest
bearing investment, and the man who
limits his support to the army and the
navy to their purchase shows that he
is more interested in making per-
sonal profit than he is in helping the
boys in the training camps and the
trenches. Men who persist in with.
holding support for these causes mus
expect to be suspected of being pro
German in their sympathies and treat
ed accordingly by all loyal citizens.

\ MISTAKEN VIEW OF NEWS
PAPER PUBLICITY.

There is a well established senti-
ment in almost every city and town
that the publication by local papers
of unfavorable comments on municipal
conditions and the public service gen.
orally, when there Is no question that
adverse criticism is justified, Is detri-
mental to the city and should be sup
pressed, the idea being that to give
publicity to the city's deficiencies
would discourage new people from
coming in to make their homes and di-
vert business to more progressive COM
munities. This disposition was recent
lily illustrated in Kansas City. as was
also the true position that should be
taken by local newspapers, An edit
orial in the Kansas City Star called
attention to the poor service rendered
by the public utilities companies, par
ticuarly gas and electric light and
power companies. and Immediately
there were protests against such pub
| licity for the reason that 1t hurt the
town" and gave the city a BLACK
eye" In reply to this protest the Star
defined it's position in this brief state
ment, which is absolutely correct:
There has been some complaint
over the editorial in the Star yesterday
calling Kansas City city of boobs
for getting on with no gas, insufficient
electric light and all the other incon
veniences. The publication of sucf
editorials, it is urged, gives the town
a black eye and hurts it in its compe
tition with other cities.
mo, no! 1t isn't the publication o
the facts that hurts Kansas City. Thu
facts themselves are what hurt.
"Cities are competitors for business
and population. The city that fails t.
provide good service from its publi
utilities can no more compete with tn
city that provides good service thai
the run down Office building can com
pete with the one that is well manag
ed. And advertising the bum offic
building as up to date won't fool any
body.
THE way for a city to get on is no
to cover up it's deficiencies but to Sc
them right"

mating metal of the ore mined and
treated.
Like copper, however lead is sure to
advance again in quotations, and its
recovery is almost certain to be more
rapid whether the war terminates
within six months or two years. War
will have it's certain requirements
which must be filled and, when peace
comes, the rehabilition of the whole
world, it's practical reconstruction, VIII

Taken as whole, the outlook for
lead Is not as gloomy as some are LED
to believe and it's sudden decline
should not cause the suspension OF
lead mining to any great extent.

FACILITIES OFFERED BY IDAHO
SCHOOL OF MINES.

The call for volunteers and the draft
law have levied heavy tribute upon
the educational institutions of the
country for the double reason that the
young men who make up the higher
classes are usually of the type who re-
spond readily to the call of the army
and navy in war, and those who do
not are largely subject to the draft.
The University of Idaho has felt the
effects of war in this respect, and
while it is most regretable that so
many young men of Idaho have been
forced to abandon their educational
plans it is nevertheless a matter of
pride to the people of the state that
they have promptly and eheerfully
placed their hopes and ambitions be-
hind them and followed the flag wher-
ever it may lead
The Idaho school of mines particu-
larry has been hard hit by the war,
nearly all the advanced classmen hav-
ing been called to the colors. This sit
uation has drawn special attention to
the desirability of inducing young men
who graduate from the high schools of
Idaho to take mining course at the
state university. A technical mining
education opens a wide field for ambi
tons young men, and the Idaho school
of mines has every modern facility
for theoretical and practical instruc-
ton in all its branches. The school
has an excellent corps of instructors
men of actual experience in all de-
partments of mining and thoroughly
grounded in the subjects with which
they have to deal. The young man
who desires to take up mining engin-
eering, geology, mineralogy or metal
lurgy will find at the Idaho school OF
mines facilities and instructors unex-
celled in any similar institution in the
west, and all necessary equipment to
give him practical knowledge and ex-
'perience that will fit him for positions
of responsibility and which will insure
ample salaries from. the start. The
mining experimental station maintain
ed by the government in connection
with the Idaho school of mines is an
other feature that will prove of great
practical value to the students, and
this, like the school itself, will con-
tinue to expand to meet the ever In :
creasing demands of the vast mining
field it serves.
To the high school student who is
undecided as to his career, the mining
school offers an opportunity for an ed :
ucation that insures him rich rewards
for his services and opens to him a
field for useful and honorable effort
limited only by his own industry and
ambition.

DALLAS PAPER SEES DOOM OF
DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

The sounding of the death knell OF
the democratic party in Texas. the
writing of it's obituary and the singing
of the doxology over it's remains, Is
predicted by the Dallas (Texas) Dem
ocrat, edited. by a democratic state
senator. This outcome, he thinks, the
party will merit, for it has not only
been extravagant but has refused to
make it's accounting to the people in
such a manner that they can under
stand how their money has been spent.
Says the Democrat:
There are at least twice as many
departments, commissions, boards, bu-
reaus, and other auxiliaries of govern
mental administration as the state
needs"
Undoubtedly all this is true, and yet
it does not foretell the death of the
democratic party in Texas. The same
thing was true of the democratic par
tvs administration of national affairs.
That party went into power with a
declaration on its lips that the repub-
lcans had created useless offices and
that the democrats, if given an oppor-
tunity, would cut down the payrolls.
From the day they assumed control
OF the government, the democrats in
creased the number of offices and. COM
missions, and disregarded the spirit OF
the civil service law in filing them
They did that before the war made
new offices necessary
But when election time came around
they were crafty enough to direct pub
lie attention away from this and num-
erous other violations of campaign
pledges BY making new false repre-.
sensations and new promises they di.
verified discussion from the deception!
of the past. They pretended to have
kept us out of war" and asserted tina
the election of Hughes would throw u.
into war. The people of the countr.
bit" and the democratic party re
manned in power, regardless of waste
inefficiency, broken pledges, and a lon
line of other offenses which it woul,
be near treason to mention now.
When the democratic party can pu
that sort of thing over in the nationa
election, we see no reason why the
should not be able to deceive and mis-
lead the voters of Texas, especial
since Texas has now very large rep
resentation in the national offices, an
: all those federal office holders can b
utilized to control state politics.

. is to be commended for his deman

i but he is too optimistic as to the over

TheGreat Aduenture
(By Thomas Walsh.)

Tn nv heart is the sound of drums
And the sweep of the bugles calling
The day Of the Great Adventure comes
And the tramp of feet Is railing,
falling,
Ominous falling, everywhere,
By street and lane, by field and
To answer the Voice appalling!
One by one they have put down
The tool the pen, and the racquet;
One nv one they have donned the
brown
And the blue, the knapsack ana
jacket;
With a smile for the friend of hap
pier day,
With a kiss for the love that would
bid them to stay
They are off by the train and pac-
ket.~
What fate what star, what sun, what
field,
What sea shall know their daring?
Shall the battle reek or the dead calm
yield
Their wreaths that are preparing!
Shall they hear it, rush and STAY ana
fall?-
What matter?-their swords are
barring!
We stand in the crowds that see them
We who are old and weak, unready;
We see the red blood destined TO HOW
Flushing their cheeks, as with foot
step ready
With tramp and a tramp they HE
along,
our brave, our true, orr young. our
strong
And the fever burns us fierce and
heady
With God, then forth, by sea and land,
To your Adventure beyond story,
No Argonaut, no Crusader band
Fer passed with such exceeding
glory!
Though We seek fields both strange
land far,
Ye are at home where heroes are!
Such is the prayer we send your star
We who are weak and old and
hoary.
