Law MayPrevent
the Sale of Shares
Held by Soldiers

| 1t is believed that the moratorium
which Is proposed in bills which have
been introduced in both houses of con-
gress, and which 1t Is announced will
have the support of the administra-
tion which insures their passage, will
apply to mining stock subject to as
sessment held by soldiers and sailors
serving during the war with Germany.
The law proposed is referred to as the
| Soldiers civil rights BILL" and 1t is
property rights during his term OF
service. 1t would protect the soldiers
from all kinds of legal injustices, and
would act as stay of proceedings in
all suits Of creditors against officers
and enlisted men serving in the army
and navy, denying judgments by de-
fault the purpose being to give legal
recognition to the fact that man in
the service would have no opportunity
to make a defense. The brief refer
ence to the bill contained in the dis
patches indicates that 1t provides for
Ia suspension of all legal requirements
in the acquisition or holding of prop
erty in their application to men in the
army and navy. 1t Is therefore be-
lieved that reasonable construction
Of the proposed law, IL 1t Is not speci-
cally stated, would apply to all SOL
diers and sailors holding shares in
mining and other corporations sub
ject to assessment and would forbid
the sale of such holdings for nom
payment of assessments during the
period of the war.
If the bill as now framed does not
cover assessments on stocks 1t should
be amended to that effect. Among the
hundreds of men who are leaving the
mining sections of the west, and 9TH
er sections of the country, many of
them hold shares in mining eompan-
les upon which assessments will be
levied to continue development. The
officers of most companies will no
doubt voluntarily protect such stock
holders as a matter of right and fair
ness and as patriotic duty. But In
order to make sure that these men
who are giving their service to the
country are fully protected in their
holdings, the law should be SO fram-
ed as to admit of no doubt as to it's
meaning.

---Notable Visitors

The labor situation attracted not
able visitors to the district during the
past week, although their presence
here at the same time seems to have
been accidental and without any pre-
arranged plan. And there appears to
have been no special reason for their
coming beyond the fact that there Is
large number of wage earnersS here
and in the course of their duties they
desire to become informed first hand
on local conditions and the relation
ship between employers and employ
ed. These visitors We're G. Y. Harry,
% Washington, D. c., special repre-
sentative of the department of labor;
c. O. Young, general organizer of the
American Federation Of Labor, and w.
j. A. McVety, of Boise, commissioner
of labor for Idaho, and one of the
committee of three recently appoint
ed by Governor Alexander to attend
the proposed conference between the
miners union and the mine managers.
AS the conference was not held, there
was no occasion for the other two
members of the governors commits
and Secretary of State G. w. Dough-
erty to be present. 1t is understood
that Mr. McVety was here as the spe-
cial representative of the governor to
investigate the labor situation.
Meeting Of Managers.
There was a meeting of mine man
ayers in this city last Sunday, which
was also attended by Mr.. McVety and
Mr.. Harry, of the department Of la
Dor. Whether this meeting was call
ed for the purpose of discussing the
recent request from the local organ
ization of the International Union of
Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers for
to consider working condi-
tions is not known, but it is learned
that the request was the subject of
considerable discussion. 1t is also
learned that there was no division in
the sentiment of the managers with
reference to the proposed conference,
which was that no conference would
be held. They were a unit in their
desire to maintain the present
"topen shop" system and would con-
tinue without discrimination in the
of men in so far as
in the union is concerned.
1t is stated that all the producing
mines of the district were represented.
Mr. McVety returned to Boise on
and Mr.. Harry and Mr..
Young proceeded to the coast, where
they were called in connection with
the strike in the shipyards.

CH|CAGO.BOSTON HAS
LEAD AND GRAY COPPER
DRIFT SHOWS IL FEET OF LEAD
a FEET OF GRAY COPPER
IN PARALLEL VEIN.

The big ore shoot on the 200 level
| of the Chicago Boston continues
strong as the drift continues west. AS
reported last week in this paper, the
showing in the face, while good, was
not equal to that for 25 or 80 feet af
ter the ore was encountered, but it
was pointed out that there were indi-
cations that more ore was coming in.
The expected change has taken place,
according to information received
yesterday. 1t is learned that there Is
full face of ore 6 feet wide and a
crosscut to the wall shows 6 feet
more, making 12 feet Of solid ore that
will average IL or IA per cent lead,
with numerous streaks of clean ga
lena running through it. The ore car
ries silver at the rate of about one
ounce to the unit of lead. The drift
has now been extended probably up
wards of $50 feet. The big ore shoot
has been extended probably up
The first in the tunnel, where it was
proved by the former management for
distance of over 300 feet. The 100
foot level from the shaft followed
200 feet or more, and now the show
ing is being duplicated on the ZOO
Gray Copper, Too.
The original Chicago Boston vein
is gray "copper" and much work was
done in past years in exploring 1t with
very satisfactory results. The ore
shoot had been opened in three upper
tunnels before the Days took over the
property. In these tunnels the ore
shoot is not large, but carries high
values in silver. No. tunnel, the
lowest, was driven to crosscut this
gray copper vein and the work was
continued by the Days while lnkine
the shaft to develop the big lead
shoot. The gray copper vein was cut
some time ago and drift was run
east without finding satisfactory ore.
Recently the management decided to
go back and crosscut the vein on the
west end, being a short cut to save
drifting much further to reach the
same ground. The vein was cut in
about Is feet and appeared about the
same as in the east drift. Drifting
was started west and almost immedi-
ately gray copper appeared and rap
idly increased in width until there is
now reported four feet of ore which
carries high values in silver.

Shaft Nearing the 300 LeveI-cut the
Station About First Of the Month.
Richard Daxon manager Of the
Tarbox Mining company, returned
from the mine near Saltese Tuesday
afternoon. He states that the shaft
il nearing the 800 level and should
reach that point by the first of Octo-
ber, when the work of cutting the sta
ton will begin. The shaft will also
have to be extepded about rs feet to
provide for q sump. The company
has experienced some difficulty in
keeping men to work in the shaft,
which has caused some delay. Upon
the completion Of the station the
crosscut to the vein will be started at
once and pushed with all possible
speed, and the management expects to
reach the ore shoot by the middle of
December. With that work accom-
lplished the Tarbox will be ready for
a mill, which will probably be con-
structed early in the spring. In the
meantime work Is going forward to
utilize the splendid water power
which will meet all requirements for
both the compressor and mill,

Farewell Reception
at Howarth Hall
Tomorrow
A PATRIOTIC OCCASION
Every Loyal Citizen Should
Be Proud to Attend
Gathering

| Tomorrow evening at Howarth hall
the men of the national army who will
probably leave on the following day
| for the training camp at American
Lake will be the honored guests at
reception that will convey to them an
evidence of the appreciation in which
the service they are about to render
to their country is held by the people
of this city and county Let no man
under rate the seriousness of the bus
mess to which these men have been
called. We are fighting an enemy that
has abandoned every humane instinct
in his desperate determination to win
the war, and the men who are now
going to oppose him and those who
will follow have a task before them
such as the world has never seen.
They go as the defenders of our gov
ernment against the attacks of Prus-
sianism which would destroy our free
government and make us vassals of a
military despot, the last of Its kind
on the earth. Men can be enlisted in
no higher cause, and these young men
who are now about to leave, offering
all they possess, even their lives, must
be made to feel that the heart of
every true American is with them,
and that they are only the advance
guard of other millions who will fol-

power of Germany.
Brings the War Home.
The departure of this large number
of men from this county should be
the means of bringing the war to
every home, to make every citizen
realize the gravity of the great strug-
gle In which our country is engaged,
and to fire him with the spirit that
will lead him to make every sacrifice
necessary to bring speedy victory to
our arms. 1t has been said that we in
the west do not yet realize that our
country is engaged in great war, and
this in way Is true Many of our
young men are already in the various
them are still on native soil and the
horrors of the great conflict have hot
yet been brought home to us. But
the time is not far distant when all
this will be changed, and every citi-
zen should make the farewell to be
given the boys tomorrow evening an
occasion to give vent to his patriotic
ardor and prepare himself for what
ever sacrifice he may be called upon
to make.
Turn Out in Honor Of the Soldiers.
The program at Howarth hall will
be made up Of patriotic music, both
vocal and instrumental, and short
talks by local citizens, to be followed
by a dance to which all are invited.
most interesting feature of the
program will be the presentation to
the men who are soon to see service
comfort kits made by the Woman's
Relief Corps of this city. These will
symbolic the patriotic devotion Of
the noble women of that organization,
who are working early and late to
provide a little comfort for the boys
in the trenches. The kits will con-
tain a. book also from the Relief
Corps, while the other contents will
be supplied by the Red Cross
Don't fail to attend this farewell to
the boys of the national army.

0irNllI ATTAIN of last issue to actual an

Regrettable as it is, war with Ger
many now seems unavoidable, ana
regardless of whether we have been
in accord with the course pursued
by the administration at all times,
or not, united people should and no
doubt will stand behind the presi-
dent in this crisis in relations be-
tween the two nations, hitherto al
ways at peace, and in the eventuall-
ties that arise.
Latest disclosures make it apparent
that the leaders in Germany months
ago considered war with the United
States as probable and by intrlgues
in various parts of the world eH-
deavored to embroil this country III
troubles with other nations before
her ruthless destruction of Amer1-
can lives on the high seas brought
about hostilities with the United
States. Perhaps we who have crltl-
ciZed Wilson for apparent lack CT
firmness in dealing with Mexico
would have had a different view
point had we realized as he prob
ably did, the influences at work be-
hind the scenes, whose nefarious pur-
poses were defeated only by his re-
fusal to be stampeded.
We have the greatest sympathy for
the German people i'll this country,
the great majority of whom have al
ways been and will continue to be
loyal to the republic. No more loyal
nor more patriotic people has Ameri-
ca received from the shores of north
ern Europe, where our best citizen
ship all originates from, no people
with greater readiness to defend the
stars and stripes in tine of neces-
sity. Attached to the land Of their
fathers by ties Of BLOOD their SYM
pathies in the present European
holocaust are naturally with Germany
and their viewpoint OF the entire
war is ulllSI0II IAtlII IuC pCOpiC
from the countries on the other side.
Though loyal to the United states
their breasts are torn with conflict
ing emotions. Let us be cOnslderate
Of their natural feelings and not too
anxious to discern disloyalty. Of
course there will be some who will
bite the hand that feeds them, who
may forget that their allegiance is
to America rather than to an Euro
pean monarch, just as there were
tories" in 1875 and ''copper-heads"
during the Civil War But the great
majority of the people in this coun-
try of German descent can be de
pended upon to be loyal to America.
And, it is we'll to remember even
at such time as this, that the man
who makes the most noise about it
isn't always the most patriotic.
