PLAN TO INVESTIGATE
SHELTER TRUST

The mining group In the legislature
led by Representative Girard of Boul-
der county and Senator Curran of
Silverton, is determined that when
the Twenty-first general assembly ad-
journs there will be an effective law
for the investigation and restraint of
the smelter trust and the utility com.
mission, may be called on to act as
investigators.
Girard is one of the miners of Boul-
der county who felt the tooth Of the
smelter trust as 1t tore the props
from the tungsten industry and while
he has no desire fer vengeance, he
introduced what will be known as the
Girard-Curran bill into the house and
with his conferees from the hills
will put his broad shoulder to the
committee wheel, push it through on.
to the floor for discussion and pass
age.
The Girard measure provides that
there shall be no interference or cur.
tailment of the business Of smelling
Of ores belonging to or produced by
the smelling companies themselves,
and that they must make strict ac-

who ship their ores for treatment

NO "wAR SPIRIT" IN CONGRESS
Congressman Keating)

! notice that the big newspapers
have much to, say about the War
Spirit" in congress, and some of tn EN-
would have you believe that the great
majority Of the members in both
houses are wild to buckle on their
swords and go ito the front.
There Is nothing to these yarns.
Not five per cent Of the senators and
representatives desire war with any
country. There are a few men on
both houses who are Americans in
name only, and who give entirely too
much thought to the interests of for
eign countries. ! am willing to con-
cede their honesty, but they are sad-
ly out of place in the American con-
gress.
The bulk OF the members, however
appret late that war is a mighty SER
ious business and are prepared to do
anything in their power to avert it.
They have fat h in President Wilson
and are not disposed to harrass or
embarrass him.
Should Germany commit some
overt act" the president will lay
the facts before congress, which is
clothed by the constitution with sole
and exclusive power to declare war.
A great many people seem to have
overlooked his fact-that the presi-
dent Is in control of our information
al affairs up to the point where fight
ing becomes necessary and that then
congress takes charge.

DEBATING CLUB GIVES
ENTERTAINMENT FREE

Because of the poor attendance at
the regular debate between the high
school and Wheatridge a few weeks
ago the club finds itself in debt with
the probable expense Of a debate
with Arvada also to be incurred in
the near future. In discussing ways
and means for meeting these expens-
es it was suggested that the club
give an entertainment inviting its
friends and II these friends enjoyed
the entertainment and wanted to
help debating, an opportunity would
be given them to contribute.
Carrying out this idea. Mr.. Mat

9th. Every student listened with raIt
attention during the whole Of this

PROTECT OUR MINERAL LANDS

AS lead and copper now command
higher prize than ever before in
their history, and the price Of silver
higher than at any time since its de-
monetization in 1873, is it not about
time for the Metal Miners chapters
throughout the STAKE to take firm
stand against that organizati cn,
known as the Denver Commercial as
sociation?
This organization is the outgrowth
of the old Denver ohambeS of COM
merce that had at it's head such men
as David Moffat, Walter Cheeseman,
JoseIh Thatcher, Denny Sullivan,
Governor Evans and a score Of 9TH
ers, who were the pioneers Of the
country and knew we'll that the min
ing industry was then the only in
dustry that forged our barren plains
and bald mountains to an early state
hood.
These giant minds that put Colo
""uo NA INC AAdP dA<b6 luc oAotCA :
hc'od of states, have nearly all pass
ed into that land where their fathers
have gone before, and their places
have been filled by the Silk Stock
ing Brigade" of Deuver who have no
mere conception Ct what industry
built up the state, than jack rab-
bit has Of its ancestry.
These later day saints have gone
as wild over mountain parks as the
KAISER has over war, and are con-
tinually petitioning congress to en-
large the park system and take in
more of our rich mineral territory TO
icy ride drives and mountain resorts,
that furnish pleasures to the rich
tourist for a couple of months and
then like the English cuckoo, away
they fly"
The Mining association should see
to 1t that the ruthless tying up of
our rich mineral lands fer national
rarks is stopped and any of our
United States senators or congress
men who aid or abets, should have
the mark Of Cain stamped upon his
future political career.

GET BUSY NOW

The many excellent results secured
by the Colorado Metal Mining Asso.
ciation during the four years It has
been in existence, demonstrates this
organization should have the entire
and united support Of every man in
terested in metal mining, either di'
rectly or indirectly in Colorado.
1t should not be forgotten that 1t
was due to the efforts Of the Colo,
rado Metal Mining Association that
the mines CT this state were placed
upon a proper basis for taxation, and
while there has been some sugges'
tions on the part Of outsiders the old
law, which was in way confiscated,
should be again enacted, the assooia-
ton will be strong enough to prevent
such a measure becoming a law. To
the association is due the strong feel.
ing some steps should be taken by the
present Legislature to curb the rarac.
ity Of the smelters and a measure OF
some kind locking to that end will lie
enacted. The asso iatien has grown
in strength steadily during its four
years existence, but this year It
ehould be pushed 20 that every camp
in the state has the full force OF its
strength on the books OF the associa.
ton. The cost to become member
is merely nominal. The benefits are
many.

STATE ENCOURAGEMENT TO
MINING IN ARIZONA

Regardless of occupation, every
resident of Rocky Mountain or
Pacific Coast state must acknowledge
his intimate dependence upon the
mineral industry. But in some west
ern states the development of oher
industries and of commercial and fin
ancial organizations serves to con-
ceal the relationship between the
prosperity of the people and the ad-
vancement of mining. These states
should regard with interest the con-
di,iou In Arizona, where the relative
ly small population and the relative
ly large mineral production place the
per capita depenende Of the 'individ-
ual en- mining at an unusual figure
The value of mine products in Ariz-
cua during 1916 has been estimated
at $203 900. 900, while the population n
Is probably in excess of 250, 900. The
lately publis he'd estimate Of $500
Per CAPITA is sufficiently accurate
statement OF the individual citizens
interest in the mining industry, even
allowing fer the fact that possibly
25 to 10 per cent of this amount
goes into the pockets Of outsiders.
Mining therefore comes closer to the
whole people of Arizona than to the
people Of any other state. The en-
tire population is little less directly
affected by the business Of mineral
production than those who are i'm
mediately occuIied in and about the
mines. Thus, the popular status of
mining in Arizona accounts for the
interest which the state government
manifests in encouraging the devel-
oHment of the industry among the
citizens. The Arizona state Bureau
OF Mines, attached to the University
Of Arizora at Tucson, has. during
the last year, engaged in the publi-
catton Of an excellent series of bull
letins, dealing wi h those matters
which are of special interest to pros
pectOrs. to small shippers and to
mine employees. Monographs on the
mineral resources of Arizona and the
mineralogy Of and the markets for
these resources, on the selling Of
ores, on the subject Of safety in min
ing -work and ON metallurgical ques-
ti,Us have been widely distributed
among the people of the state. Ex-
cellent Judgment has been used in
the sellksion >'of the materials and
these have been written and compil-
ed by men Of thorough experience in
educational work. The program here
described is in the nature of ''univer-
sity extension" service, applied spec
ifically to the needs of the miner and
prospector. Charles F. Willis, is d.
