iies in friendly relations with the South
ern Slavs
The agreement Is substantially one Of
friendship and good will between the
two races and concerns the division Of
the Adriatic territory on racial lines and
in accordance with the principle of racial
seif-determinatiCn. II removes the
grounds for suspicion and cnmity be-
tween Italy and the Austrian Slavs and
appears to have done more to drive a
wedge into Austria than all the appeals
Allied statesmen have made to the lib
eral sentiment i'm Austria.
Dispatches represent the southern
Slavs as desiring to be attached to Ser
bla and made subjects Of King Peter.
II that is their demand now it is Of re-
cent development, for until recently at
least sthe Slavs have preserved an ap-
pearance OF friendliness with the Haps-
burgs by asking independence Of Austria
under a ruler who should, however, be a
member of the Hapshurg family
The ambitions Of the southern Slavs
are paralleled by those Of the Bohe-
mfans and northern Slavs. who also seek
independence OF Austria. Mere au-
tonomy within the Austria empire is
not enough to satisfy the ambitions
OF both groups OF Austrian NldNS. ine
policy of this country toward the SlaVs
has been. so far as it Is possible TO
Judge from the guarded words Of the
President. to secure autonomy for tho
subject races Of Austria while not dis
turbing the territorial integrity Of the
empire,
The idea that underlay this policy
was that Austria, II assured OF such
benevolent purposes on the part Of the
Allies, might detaCh herself from Ger
many or that the Liberals Of Austria,
thus assured, might rise against the
Z, war
The natural line OF cleavage i'm Aus
fria appears, however. to he racial, and
this country has missed il by its APP
peals 20 other sentiment II is not
certain yet whether Mr.. Wilson has
come to recognize the possibilities that
lie In the Slavic aspiration within Aus
tria's domlnions. A powerful group in
going on.
Italy is influenced perhaps by the
clear perception of the desirabnity of
splitting up the ancient enemy, Austria.
The result is that troubles are thicken-
Ing about Emperor Charles and peace

GEOLOGICAL MAP
 OF THIS STATE

The Arizona Bureau of Mines is en- gagged in the construction of a geologi- cal map of the state, which is de- signed to show the geological struc- lures of all the districts The state has no base map and the bureau will take the matter up and compile it from all the available data. It will be made on scale of eight miles to the inch and will show clearly the ge- ology of every section through which surveys have been run. Of course, there are many square miles of the state that have not been surveyed, but the object of the present work is to build as far as possible and when new surveys are made they will be added to the base work.
 Arizona is badly in need of a geolo- gical survey covering it's entire area and it is to be hoped that the forth coming session of the legislature will provide for it.

COPPER-COLD PROPERTIES
 ARE TO BE DEVELOPED

Newton Evans and Carl F. Schader passed through Kingman yesterday returning from the Mineral Hill min es, in northern Yuma county, upon which property they have taken an option. The gentlemen, who are larg- ely interested in mining purpose start ing an important development cam paign on the properties as soon as camp can be established and the work put under way. F.
 The Mineral Hill properties were discovered about the same time as the old Copper Prince, but have never been developed to a great extent. Mir. Evans is responsible for the devel- opment of the Prince to the point where it was taken over by the Nit chel crowd, who had not reached the big ore body when the company went into the hands of a receiver. Judge Thomas, who held lease on the prop erty, found the big ore body and was fast accomplishing fortune when he died. Since that time the Clark peo- pie have been operating the mines and are taking big money from it.
 It is possible that the Mineral Hill properties will prove equally i'm

STRIKE MADE UPON LOS CONQUISTADORES
 MINE NEAR BENSON

Some very interesting developments have lately arisen on Los Conquista- dores mines property, situated about 12 miles north of Benson.
 It had been regarded as gold prop osition solely, but recently a large body of gold-silver-lead ore has been uncovered on the Carolina No. 1 and No. 2 claims, which from the values it contains bids fair to be the means of financing all of the development work through out the property and leaving considerable in the dividend fund for its shareholders.
 Preparations are under way to ship a large tonnage of this ore to the Fl Paso shelter and it is intimated by some of the officials of the company that this step presages the withdraw al of the treasury stock from the market.-Tombstone Epitaph.

LIGHT AND POWER
 COMPANY SUFFERS

Desert Power and Water Company has felt the effects of the present ep- idemic with especial severity. With forces already depleted by wars de- mands, recent illnesses have caused the management and Chief Engineer Steed grave concern. For weeks eff forts have been made to secure re- serve engineers, firemen and linemen from both Eastern and Western sour ces, but without success. As we go to press the following employees of the Company are reported sick and off duty: J. R. Hawkins, Thomas Brobant, C.. Atkinson, A. A. Parke, o. Skaggs, Porter Williams, c. A. Rofinot and w. Walton. Several of the plant force while on duty have had the influenza and are only partially recovered. Engineer Walters is held at home by his wife's illness, so all in all, these are trying days at the power plant.

RED GROSS CHRISTMAS
 ROLL CALL DEC.l6 TO 23

About one-third of the people in California, Arizona and Nevada are members of the Red Cross. This pro- portion is not enough to satisfy the western spirit. The Pacific Division wants to do things in the biggest, fin est way possible. Because it has more members enrolled to the thousand pop ulation than ay other Division in. the country does not satisfy it either. Only the best is good enough out here in the West, and nothing short of 100% membership in the Red Cross should satisfy any state, city or com munity in our territory.
 The Christmas Roll Call for Univer- sal Red Cross membership is schedul- ed for the week before Christmas December 16 to 23. To be an Ameri- can these days is to account ourselves blest and honored. The only way to be 100fo American is to belong to the organized SOUL of our nation and be listed on the Honor Roll of those who serve Humanity. The thing that put the entire population of the country solidly behind the war was the feeling that we were not in it for any selfish end. Through the Red Cross we have served our way into the confidence and into the hearts of every Allied Nation. The opportunity for unselfish service is now greater than ever. Even the enemy will re- alize that the American heart is the National Heart, and that in both war and peace we are in fact as we'll as in name "All for Humanity" The Red Cross must mean ALL America. There must be no weak link in the chain. Universal membership-That's s All,

SENSATIONAL
 MINE STRIKE

One of the most important discover ies of ore in many months was made in the Magnate mine, in Pima county few days ago. The ore was cut in- to in drifting on a superficial level of the mine where a crosscut has dis closed 60 feet of copper ore, carrying better than nine per cent of the red metal and over dollar in silver. The ore body is one of the largest eyfr opened in Pima county and the values makes the mine one of the big propo- sitions of the state.

SENDS COPY OF
 NEWSY CAMP PAPER

The Miner office is in receipt of a bright and newsy little sheet called the O"EEN. which has been sent to us by Wagoner Roma N. Jones, who is now stationed at the U. s. General Hospital, Carolina.
 The paper is the official organ of the hospital and is full of bright and trite little sayings and doings to aid in the brightening of the world for the convalescent soldiers with which this Hospital is filled and who have been returned wounded from France to this section.
 Roma is Mohave county boy who has recently been transferred to the Medical department and is stationed at this place, but he writes, "is not a patient" as we might be led to infer from his connection with this institu- tion. Instead he reports as well and dong fine.

LIFT BAN ON
 GOLD AND SILVER

The war industries board has lifted the ban on the use of gold and silver in the manufactures, but the ban on export still exists. Should gold be sub ject to export it would be but short time until all the new gold would be in Europe. At the present time the German government would give better than $50 per ounce for the gold and a high price for the silver. The fact that gold is the basic money metal of the greater part of the world and that some of the European countries are almost depleted of the. metal makes it imperative that some of them stock up on this money metal with all pos sible speed.

FOUNTAIN HEAD TUNNEL DRIVEN TOWARD ORE BODY

A. G. Goodwill, who has an option on the Fountain Head mine, at Stock ton Hill, was in Kingman several days this week. He reports that he has the tunnel in 200 feet, which is being run to tap the big vein at a depth of about 100 feet. This tunnel will reach the vein. shortly and the ore above that level will be made accessible. As soon as the ore body is developed along the level a holster will be put in and the mine opened to greater depth.
 The Fountain Head is one of the best looking properties in the Wall apai district and we feel sure that it will soon be producing largely.
