east drift toward the main ore shoot
is making regular progrers with
the present face $50 feet from the

should be about 80 feet, but Super

might be a slight variation from that
distance. 1t is not the intention to

WASTE IN WAR TIME.

Just now, when the whole country
Is centering all it's efforts upon the
war. the administration at Washington
has begun the publication OF
weekly health index" showing the
estimated population of various cities
the number of deaths during the pre-
vious week, number of deaths under
one year of age, various percentages
etc The statistics are complicated
and a considerable force OF clerks
must be needed to compile, publish
and distribute the bulletins.
While all this is going on, the de-
partments at Washington are pleading
that they are unable to get clerks and
stenographers enough, and are com
Wandering hotels, private residences
and office buildings for office pur-
poses. An immense office structure is
being erected in public park to house
the needed clerical forces.
Yet, under these circumstances, the
administration begins publication of
weekly health statistics when semi
annual statement would do as wen for
any practical purpose. 1t is deemed
highly important that San Francisco
shall be advised every week how many
deaths there have been in Philadel
phia
The mails are burdened with use
less reports and documents from va
rious other departments of the gov
eminent which are carried without
expense to Uncle Sam. and at the
same time postage rates on the peo-
pies letters have been advanced SO
per cent.
Much can be excused on account of
the war, but not everything.

MUST ITALY GO. TOO?

Is Italy to go the way of Serbia and
Rumania? We do not add Belgium
to the list because there were valid
reasons why the allies. not expecting
that treaties would become scraps
of paper" could not come to her aid
with sufficient force. Is the legend.
TOO Late" again to be written across
fair territory devastated by the Hun
this time the fertile plains of
Venetia?
When Austria found herself too
hard pressed by Cadorna, Germany
was able to send commanders, head
ed by the mighty Won Mackensen, and
men and guns and munitions to
strengthen the line and to make it fit
to deliver the stroke which has now
fallen. But when Cadorna foresaw
the blow coming. why were the allies
unable to hold up his hands?
1t is not reassuring to be reading
in the British newspapers. at the
same time that Italy is staggering for
lack of efficient cooperation, the
complacent articles regarding Eng
lands strength. If she be so strong,
why did she not go to Ttaly's aid?
This is question which may well be
raised when the allied council meets
as it soon will. And no nation is so
well authorized to raise it as the
United States. We are looked upon
as the force which will win the war.
But we cannot do it all.

had swallowed her pride and had sent
him a letter. 1t was only a note really,
and ended something like this:
IF you still care as you did when
you were little kid, you might come
to me near the old orchard bench"
She had written ten days ago; there
had been plenty of time Tor him to
come, and each afternoon she had
gone to the bench and waited. 1t
seemed as if he had forgotten.
Sitting now with her face in her
hands, Anna reviewed the whole
wretched affair. The scent of apple
blossoms brought to her poignant
memories A single tear escaped from
her tightly shut eyes and rolled down
one cheek.
Suddenly a footstep sounded nearby
and a figure stood before her.

PATRIOTIC KNOCKERS.

Much criticism of the conduct of
the war appears from time to time
both in this country and in Europe
This criticism finds voice in the press
and in interviews with public men.
Denunciation of the plumbers of those
in authority may we'll be regarded as
an expression of patriotism and loyal
ty in their highest degree. The critics
feel and know that there must be
somewhere men capable of doing the
needful thing in the right way and
find it difficult to understand why
such men are not found and placed
on the job.
As an instance of well merited sub
ject for fault finding, there is the
situation in Italy. The dispatches an
| nounce that both English and French
soldiers are approaching the fighting
zone. The question that naturally
arises is, why was such a movement
delayed until General Cadorna had
lost 100000 of his soldiers and all the
territory previously won in a long,
arduous and bloody campaign?
The Italian situation again empha-
sizes the necessity for a supreme war
head such as has made German war
operations so effective The Germans
are no better fighters than the allies;
neither are they better equipped or
superior in numbers, but they manage
to keep the upperhand everywhere
except on the western front Their
successes clearly are due to better or
ganization and superior direction of
the forces in the field. They win by
clever military tactics, while the allies
win only by hard knocks and heavy
expenditure of men and war material
Coming nearer home, it is noted
that our shipbuilding program is not
coming up to early promises and ex-
pectations. The government started
out with man in charge of this work
who had the confidence of the nation
that he could meet its expectations.
Yet General Cocktails was displaced
before he had a chance to demon
strate his fitness for the work en-
trusted to him
Incompetence. mistakes and politics
are costing the civilized world dearly.
but it is encouraging to reflect that
there is no signs of faItering anywhere
along the line. And we shall win the
war even tho it be won in the hardest
and most expensive way.
