There seems to prevail with some people the idea that it is not their duty to report any remarks they hear of 8 seditious nature. This is not true as Section 5 of the Espionage act, reads as follows: !
 Whoever harbors or conceals any person who he knows, or has reasoE able grounds to believe or suspect has committed, or is about to com init. an offense under this title shall be punished by a fine of not more than $lO,OOO or by Imprisonment for not more than two years or bOth." =
 To know of a person having made seditious acts or utterances and conceal the fact and not report it to proper authority is 8 harboring and concealment in the meaning of the above and' has been so held Dy the courts.

Must Get Pass To Go Upon
 Wharf
Charley Karaman, John Clecak, Pr"prieto"s

"There are no exceptions to the order requiring every one to have a mass before being permitted to pass a guard at the wharf entrances states United States Marshal Tanner Not even myself nor any or nis office force will be allowed to pass without showing a permit says recent Juneau paper.
 The enforcement of this oraer created some excitement On the part of those who had been enter ing the wharf grounds largely on their own recognizance. But, as the Marshal explained, this order mas been in effect and strictly enforced in the states fer some time. Wnarf watchmen have orders to let no one pass without proper permits.
 Passengers going to boats VIII De permitted, To pass, unless the guards have special order to the contrary on their tickets. Passengers coming off the boats, will retain their ticket stubs and present these in lieu or passes should they wish to visit tue town and return to the boat. It seemed to be the preVaillns opinion at the marshal's office that passes would only be issued to those who actually had business requiring their regular attendance at the wharves. And in order to secure a pass. one must take up three DIG lures of ones self, size IF by IA inches. to the marshaPs office. These pictures must be identified by ones employer or some other re- sponsible person should one not have an employer A thumb print will be required as further identifi cation, to be placed on the pass. One of these pictures will appear on the pass, one will remain in the mar shal's office, and one will be sent to the department of justice.

GOLD CONSERVATION DICTATES PLAN OF
 DEMANDING LICENSE
IN ORDER TO CONSERVE IT FOR USE IN COINAGE MANUFACTURE ING JEWELLERS MUST FIRST oB- TAIN LICENSES

OATMAN, Ariz., Oct 26. - Dr. Charles A L. Gehrmann, president of the Record Lode Mining company, write from Washington, D. C., that he is in the nations capital doing what he can to help the gold interests which seek government relief. He expresses the belief that the greater demands for gold during the coming year will hasten federal aid. but doubts if anything substantial will be done immediately. The first step of any importance was taken when gold was put under a license. The follow ing was taken from the Washing ton Post:
 "To conserve gold for essential monetary purposes, the government yesterday forbade issuance of gold bullion from the hints at Philadel- phia, Denver and San Francisco and from the New York assay office with out license from the war industries board or the secretary of the treaes- ury.
 Raymond T. Bakers instructions will virtually shut down on the use of gold except for purposes covered by regulations now being drafted. Manufacture of jewelry and use of gold for other arts and crafts pur- poses will be curtailed to increase the supply of wartime credit.
 Manufacturers desiring to obtain gold for use within the United States or it's possession may apply for li- cense to the war industries board | Applications for gold to be export | ed must go to the federal reserve board and in other special cases ] Secretary McAdoo will exercise juris dicticn."

COPPER CHIEF NOW
 CLOSED FOR PERIOD
 OF THE GREAT WAR
BECAUSE OF HIGH COSTS AND DIFFICULTY OF SECURING MA TERIAL, YDEN DEVELOP MENT COMPANY DECIDES TO SUSPEND OPERATIONS

JEROME, Ariz., Oct. 25.-Because of high costs and the difficulty of securing material, the Hayden Devel- opment company, the is planning to suspend operations at the Copper Chief mine for the period of the war The mill is still operating and prob ably the ore that is broken down will not be cleaned up till the end of this month. Then the plant will be put in shape for a period of inactivity.
 Most of the miners have already been laid off and at present only about 25 men are working at the Cop per Chief.
 Costs have mounted to such height that we simply cannot operate gold mine at a profit" explained Superintendent J. T. Matson this morning. Therefore the Hayden company has decided not to attempt to do anything till after the var The mine itself, though, is better than it ever was. Recent operations have disclosed some unusually rich ore in the upper levels. For a long time we have been treating only the best ore as we would have lost money by hand ling the low grade material"
 One of the aTter-lne-war possibil- ities is a new mill Recently the Hay den company installed a one-tOn ex- perimental mill using a combination acid and cyanide process. That plant has been running about two months now and the experiment has been great success. When the Hayden company resumes it may be with a big mill using this process. The old mill is a cyanide plant of 100 tons daily capacity.

VERDE EXTENSION
 TUNNEL WILL bE
 IN USE IN MARCH
Twelve Thousand Foot Work ing Now Being Pushed for All It Is Worth and With Good Progress Recorded

JEROME. Ariz., Oct. 25-It is not improbable that the 12.O0O foot United Verde Extension tunnel will be in use by next March Latterly good pro gress has been had on the four head ings and less than 400 feet of driving is to be done between the main head ing, from the surface, and the east heading from the Texas shaft.
 The west Texas heading has passed the Dundee and is progressing in bet ter ground and without any especial increase in the quantity of water en- countered. though there is no assur- ance that another water scam may not be encountered, suck as that which drained the Dundee This would be of little importance, how ever, after the portal heading is broken through, giving gravity drain age, instead of pumping throug the Texas.
 By spring the shelter at Verde will have capacity for over 1000 tons a day, and great holdings of sulphide, running from 10 to 15 per cent cop per. are ready in the mine for the cheap transportation that the tunnel will afford. The Verde blast furnace is turning out more than 4.000,000 pounds of copped a month.
 Dundee has resumed sinking, with a dry shaft, and now is down to about GOO feet. on the way to the geo mark, from which a connecting drift is to be run to the Extension tunnel

TILLIE STARBUCK IN
 PRODUCING CLASS IS
 WORD FROM JEROME
PROPERTY PROVES UP TO HOPES AND EXPECTATIONS OF ITS MANAGER-PRoMoTER AND IS EcTED SOON TO COM MENcE PAYING DIVIDENDS

JEROME, Ariz, Oct. 25.-After a stay of several days in the district, Major A. J. Pickrell. who was manag- ing director of the United States Elk tension at the time the big strike was made, left today for Prescott. He ex- pressed himself as highly gratified with everything that he observed at both mine and smelter.
 Major PickrelPs home is now on the coast but he is devoting much of his time to the TiIlie Starbuck property, three miles south of Sen ator. which he hopes soon to bring to the dividend-paying stage.
 The Tillie Starbuck company was incorporated with 125.OOO shares. par value S1 Major Pickrell and his friends subscribed for 50.OO0 shares at par. With S15,0OO of that money over a mile of road has been built, patent surveys have been made and patent secured, and the main tun- nel has been driven in 1000 feet The company has S35.0O0 in the treasury and the gold-silver ore block ed out is worth more than the entire capitalization.
 At the present time the face of the tunnel is only 40 feet from the point where it is expected to cut the second great outcrop. There are ore body may be much larger and richer. That so far opened averages between $50 and $40 a ton.
 Production will be commenced at an early date. according to Major Pickrell. and he feels sure that soon after production begins the Ti!lie Starbuck will be on a steady dividend paying basis.

ANACONDA BUYS
 INSPIRATION
 COMPANY SHARES
Investment of Great Company in Stocks Gives It Substan- tial Recommendation; Is Strong Financially

The best recommendation which can be given the stock of the Inspiration Consolidated is the investment which the AnacOnda has made m the com pany. To the close of last year the big company had bought a total of 250.000 shares and it is understood that addi- tional purchases have been made dur ing the current year. That such pur- chases have been made purely for the stability of the issue as an investment is shown by the denial of the AnacOn- da officials recently that there was no possibility of a consolidation taking place. Furthermore there would be no advantage in putting the two proper ties together as they are in no way correlated on the operating end
 Despite the high price which has prevailed for copper the management of the Inspiration has not pursued the policy of taking out the richest ores to take advantage of the high price but are so regulating the ores that go to the shelter that the yield per ton shall not be above 20 pounds This policy will not only prolong the life of the mine but will also give an even ness to the operations so that the pro- ductiOn will come along at a regulate rate. It will also tend to regulate the cost of production at an even figure from year to year. and thus Inspira- tiOn should remain one of the lowest cost producers in the country. The discovery which the New COrnelia Copper company has made in the frfna nf nxfa do H h.. way for the Inspiration to treat it's oxide deposits and removes what had been heretofore an uncertainty
 Like all the other copper compan- ies. Inspiration is having difficulty in securing sufficient labor but with the passing of the war this diversity will also pass. The production is now run ming at about 1.000,0O0 pounds per month under capacity but in spite of this it is safe to say that the SS divi- dend paid this year will be substan- tially earned. Last year with the pro ductiOn in the second six months al- most nil the earnings per share were S9.3S.
 The largest surplus of over S12.000.- 900 after dividends in 1916, however. warranted the maintenance of the S2 quarterly rate. With the output now running between 9,0O0,000 and 10000 900 pounds per month the current year should show a surplus for the stock equal to at least SIP per share. or Si more than paid to stockholders. And with the previous surplus equal to SIP per share the current year close with an accumulation after divi- dends of about S16 per share. On an SS dividend basis and a market price of 55 the yield on the investment is I5 per cent.

 SUPREME DISDAIN OF
 SHEu-FIRE'S TERROR
KING ALBERT AND PREMIER GLE ENcEAU coNVE ERSE WHILE SHELLS BURST ALL AROUND THEM, EXCITING SOL DIERS' ADMIRATION

LONDON. Oct. 26. - Correspond ence of the Associated Press.)-King Albert of Belgium and Premier Clem enceau of France were apparently so indifferent to shell fire to which they were exposed while the premier was visiting the Beligum front recently as to arouse the admiration of the Bel gian soldiers.
 One of them describes the incident thus:
 The scene is laid among the ruins Of part of the Belgian front daily shattered by shells, bombs, or aerial torpedoes. In the street parallel to the church a little group of persons are walking. A tall khaki figure seems to be guiding a civilian and some French officers. It is Belgian general wandering leisurely up and down answering questions and giving explanations to his guests. From our dugout we soldiers watch with curi- osity.
 Suddenly a whistle. an explosion and a burst of smoke but thirty yards from the visitors. Not one of them took any notice Another. It falls quite near. The Belgian general. the civilian and their suite have not turned their heads. merely continue their walk as slowly as before. While the fire continues. the visitors are oetting nearer our dugout and we stand at attention.
 The Belgian general is King Al bert. the civilian M Clemenceau.

CONDITIONS ARE bETTERED MUCH
 AROUND LAKES
Labor Situation Improving and Ore Output Likely to Show Gain Until Next Spring at Least

CALUMET. Mich, Oct. 26.-Ton- nages. the barometer of the Lake la bOr problem, indicate during the past week that the outflow of workmen has temporarily ceased and from now on, until spring at least, increased ou:- puts are looked for by the big pro- ducers. The closing of the smaller properties in Ontonagon county, the shut down at New Arcadian and New Baltic and the cessation of operations at other development mines are con- tributing toward the forces of the big ger companies while the higher wages that went into effect have tended to bring a considerable number of skill ed men back to the district
 An illustration of the inroads made into the mining companies forces during the past six months is the statement that on Detroit plant alone is employing 2OOO copper country men.
 Mass has curtailed operations, due to the labor shortage and now is ope rating only one shift.
 Franklin is shipping about 70 tons of rock day from No. 2 shaft, practi cally all of it's rock being hoisted from No. There is no material change in the physical condition of the mine but it is expected that a mill test on rock from No. will reveal some ex ceptional values.
