MANY Metals in New Mexico.

Grant county, N. NJ, produces
more kinds of minerals than any dis
trict in the southwest. Copper, gold,
silver. zinc, lead. manganese and many
others in smaller quantities are listed
in the output. More copper and more
silver Is shipped from this county
than any other In the state.

often takes all his possible profit in

IF KIDNEYS and
BLADDER BOTHER
Take a Glass of Salts to Flush Out
Your Kidneys and Neutralize
Irritating Acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness re-
suit from uric acid, says a noted au-
thority. The kidneys filter this acid
from the blood and pass 1t on to the
bladder, where it often remains to
irritate and infiame, causing a burn
ing, scalding sensation, or setting up
an irritation at the neck of the blad-
der, oblising you to seek relief two
or three times during the night. The
sufferer is In constant dread, the
water passes sometimes with a scald-
ing sensation and is very profuse;
again, there is difficulty in voiding
1t.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
II, because they can't control urina-
ton. While 1t is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one Of the most simple all
ments to overcome. Get about four
ounces Of Jad Salts from your phar-
-macist and take a tablespoonful in a
glass Of water before breakfast, con-
tinue this for two or three days.
This will neutralize the acids in the
urine so 1t no longer is a source of
irritation to the bladder and urinary
organs which then act normally
again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless.
and Is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice. combined with
lithia, and is used by thousands of
folks who are subject to urinary dis
orders caused by uric acid irritation.
Jad Salts is splendid for kidneys and
causes no bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant. efer-
vescent Whitewater drink, which
quickly relieves bladder trouble

GILPIN files REPLY
To RECEIVER suit
Claims Entries in Firm Books Were
Accurate.

]. Blake Gilpin,-one of the partners
Of the banking and brokerage firm
Of Crane Gilpin and Company. filed
answer yesterday to the petition Of
his former partners, Benjamin Crane
and Beverly X. Sinclair, for a re-
ceivership.
Mr.. Gilpin states that his partners
knew Of his transactions and pur-
chases of stocks and bonds which
were handled with his own money
and on his own account. He also
AYERS that all entries made in his
books were accurate and not mis-
leading, or erroneous, as claimed by
the petitioners.
Gilpin also charges that Crane,
senior member of the firm, kept a
speculative account in brokerage
house in Washington during prac-
tically the whole time of his CO.
partnership.
When the co-partnership was or
ganized. he states, he agreed to put
into the firm $3.50 in cash and his
seat on the Washington Stock Ex-
change, which he claims was worth
at that time $500. He put in the
cash as agreed, he evers, and states
that Crane put in only $1,000 Of the
$4,000 called for by the agreement.

.''WETS'llOSE
IN TEST CASE
Supreme Court Holds the
District Dry Law Legal.
Case to Be Appealed.

As Mark Twain would say THE
undertakers are all excited"
They will not be cheated Of their
corpse. Said corpse being that Of Old
John Barleycorn. otherwise known as
Old Man Booze.
The District Supreme Court has
hstly refused to allow the old man
to have a restorative to enable him
to get on his feet again and amble
about In his own haunts. He mus
die next Wednesday night as DR.. Con-
gress ordered.
The faint hope that giinmered in
the breasts of half a dozen or mole
liquor dealers early yesterday morn
ing was extinguished by Justice
Gould when he stated to Martin Roth
ard his co-petiioners that he failed
to see where the Sheppard bill was
unconstitutional.
Decision No Surprise.
The court did what everybody but
Roth and his sympathizers expected
him to do. The majority of Washing
tons liquor dealers did not have the
slightest hope that he would do any
thing else and consequently were
preparing, as ,they had been doins.
for the worst.
According TO evidence submitted by
the petitioners for an injunction. to
prevent the enforcement of the dry
law, there was not a leg to stand on.
The District of Columbia had won
the battle before even a shot was
fired. 1t was a forgone conclusion
with 80 per cent of the people Of
Washington that November ! would
see the town dry.
1t was a hopeless fight all the way
through. The liquor dealers had as
much chance of winning their fight
as the Kaiser has Of ruling the world.
Some remarks by learned attorneys
concerning the useIessness of the legal
battle would be too libellous to print.
There was no excitement. no harsh
words were passed. and ii was as
quiet and orderly a hearing as eveS
was held in the court room.
No Crowd at Hearing.
There were no hangers-on about the
halls of the courthouse no crowd
watching and waiting outside for a
decision which would set them wilo
with Joy
Everybody who had anything to do
was doing 1t. The city carried on its
business just the same as il nothing
out of the ordinary was going Oh.
No extra papers came ut There was
no parade of dry forces.
None Of the vets exhibited any
pocket handkerchiefs to wipe away
the tears. They walked out of the
courthouse as they came in, not the
| least excited or worried.
But to the credit of the true Ameri-
can spirit that means hanging on &c
the last penny. the "wets" will carry
their troubles to the Court of Ap-
peals and doubtless hear the same
words all over again.

RESTORE

Emergency Fleet Corpora
ton Pushes Program for
Building 700 Ships.

The emergency feet corporation.
which builds and acquisitions ships
and turns them over to the shipping
board to operate. has three things in
mind, according to statements of its
executives. They are:
Ito restore the nag OF the United
States eventually to its rightful place
on the seas.
ITO solve the very pressing prob
lens of the present situation with
the best interests Of the country. not
the ship owners, in mind while SO
doing.
3-To have the entire conduct of
the business kept only on such OPEN
book lines that the people of the
country, through Congress, can at
any and all times know precisely
what is being done.
Building 700 ships.
Just now the building of some 100
ships and the requisitioning of some
800 more is keeping the corporation
busy,
AZ with other endeavors of the
government in this critical period Of
our national history, the charge is
made that the corporation is not act
ing In fairness, and that all known
rules of business are being grossly
violated in order to give a few dol
lar a year" executives a chance to
make records here.
One of the very adroit and very
alert men stated yesterday that this
charge, in part, might easily be sus-
tained. "Of course, we are ytoaating
some of the rules generally given
recognition before the war. But the
exigencies OF the occasion demand it.
The rules as to compensation of own
ers for obtaining their ships have
had to go by the board. The plan of
cost price plus reasonable increase
for overhead and other charges, is
no fair way by which TO determine
ship costs nowadays. The companies
mustn sacrifice on their fgures-and
We are seeing that they do sacrifice
in many cases.
Congress Backs Board.
'If any OF the present laws do not
justify US in our actions We will
merely run up to Congress with our
troubles and get legislation such as
will help US out. This Is war time.
and Uncle Sam is hard pressed and
it i'll behooves any Of the shipping in
terests to stand in our way" he as
serted.
1t is expected that some plan may
yet be evolved which will permit
Uncle Sam to have possession OF the
ships during the war period without
making a direct outlay, the nation.
OF course, to turn the ship back to
the company, or its equivalent, after
the war Is over. Reasonable COM
pensation for the rental or usuage OF
the ship will be provided.
The proceeding will be Democratic
throughout. the officials promise, and
every head, great and small alons

The meeting place was on the first
landing of the broad stairway lead
Ing up from the sixth floor of the huge

five speakers representing the rife
