MAJOR GENERAL WOOD
INDORSES TOBACO FUND

General Leonard Wood former com
mander of the department of the east
and designated to command a division
of the national army to be modified
at Fort Riley, Kansas, said recently:
The idea of sending tobacco to the
American soldiers in France is a cap
ital one Nothing gives a soldier in
the field more pleasure and content
ment than a cool, refreshing smoke
after a hard days fighting or while
awaiting call to the firing line.
Life in the trenches is very hard,
and | know the American soldiers will
appreciate and enjoy remembrances
in the form of tobacco, cigars, cigar
cites and pipes"
There is plain language from a man
who knows You don't want any bet
ter endorsement for The Star-Mirror
fund than this. General Wood is only
one of the public men who has gone
OH record with a statement that our
soldiers abroad must have tobacco
and cigarettes. The Star-Mirror to-
bacco fund is making it easy for you
to help. Your quarter starts it and
we do the rest.

M|zPAH MAY BECOME
GREAT COPPER MINE
DEAN f. A. THOMSON OF q. OF L.
MUCH IMPRESSED WITH
PROSPECTS

IF the Mizpah mine continues to
develop in accord with present indica-
tions, this copper property will in
evitably become one of the most val
liable in. the state, because it is not
so remote from transportation as to
be seriously initiated against on that
score
This was the statement made today
by Dean Francis A. Thomson of the
university college of mining, who, with
C. A. Wright of the United States bur-
eau of mines, Bursar Francis Jenkins
and Professor D. c. Livingston, re-
Gently made trip of inspection to the
Hoodoo copper district in the north
eastern part of Latah county.
81 consider that the Mizpah is max
ing a rather remarkable showing"
said Dean Thomson, particularly since
a new drift has been started uncov-
ering a face of solid chalcopyrite be-
tween five and six feet wide which has
every appearance of continuance. The
property is only 20 miles from the
w. l. & M. railroad, and if this new
discovery bears out present indica-
tionS the Mizpah may become inn
mensely valuable"

WILD REPORTS OF
TREASON IN CAMP
VANCOUVER, VASE. EXCITED
OVER ALLEGED WORK OF
GERMAN SPIES

VANCOUVER, Wash. -. German
agents are evidently working in the
army post. a number of army mules
have been mysteriously stabbed and
a number have been killed: 1t is be-
lived also that an attempt. was made
to plant typhus germs in the water.
Colonel Jones, the commandant, natly
denied today the persistent report that
1900 loaves of bread were found to con-
tain poison. The guard about the army
post has been doubled Every effort
is being made to capture the plotters.
Commandant Jones also denied that
German spy was shot entering the

Some people NAV ask

Some people may ask
why don't the banks subscribe fo
| the entire Liberty Loan?"
If the banks should buy most of thi.
issue of three billion dollars, it woult
mean that the national banks would tt
| forced to call loans made to keep in
dustry going-and it would paralyze
industry at a time when industry is
most essential to this country.
If the savings banks subscribe fol
more than their proportion OF this is
sue, it would mean that they would
have to demand immediate payment
of mortgages or else their municipal
and railroad bonds-with conse-
quent breaking down of credit all over
the country.
Then why don't the rich men and
the rich corporations take the entire
loan?
A glance at the subscription lists
shows that they both are doing their
share. If they should take more than
their share. it would meah that they
would have to take out of their busi-
ness money badly needed to carry
them on through this critical time. 1t
would mean a shutting down of plants.
discharge of employees, a lowering of
wages and a curtailment of production.
This war is in no sense a rich
mans war. 1t is the greatest popular
war ever waged. 1t is for decency,
for democracy, for humanity, for hon
orable dealing. 1t is war to stop
all future wars 1t must be financed
by every one in this country from
his present and future savings. No
one is exempt who. has a living income.
The benfits of a victorious war will
accrue to The poor as well as to the
rich; and the calamity of a defeat will
extend it's dire influence to every cit
izen in the land.
In order to put the loan with its
opportunity for saving within the
reach of every one, Uncle Sam has
added to his banking duties. BY
those more convenient to a postoffice
than to a bank, Liberty Loan interest
coupons may be clipped and presented
at the postoffice where cash will be
given for them.

week by the Liberty Loan committee.

U. Oh. l. FRESHMEN TO
TACKLE G0NzAGA|TES
SECOND TEAM TO VISIT SPOKANE
IN SEARCH OF GRIDIRON
LAURELS

Coach "Hec" Edmundson' universi-
ty freshman eleven, which is to meet
the speedy Gonzaga university team in
Spokane tomorrow afternoon, display
ed rather unusual form yesterday in
stiff practice scrimmage with the
Moscow High school gridists.
Coach Werrells men punctured the
freshman line for occasional gains but
the secondary defense of the first-year
men smashed in hard enough to pre-
vent anything Of parade. The fresh
men showed surprising offensive pow
er, Neil Irving, Frank Schodde, Boyd
Brigham and Cecil Ryan plunging off
tackle and guard and circling the ends
for consistent yardage.
Gonzaga is understood to have a
caliber and the Idaho freshmen will be
forced to battle against onerous handi-
caps of weight and experience which
Will make even a low score contest
creditable performance.
Coach Edmundson declined to haz-
ard a pre-game statement but he did
admit that his 1921 aggregation is
quite largely composed of fighters who
are sure to make the Irishmen realize
the fact that they have slipped through
the ropes to encounter an opponent
more than golden grin
and a powder-puff left hand.
The first-year squad will leave for
Spokane tomorrow morning via the
Inland.
