FIRE ALARM NOSES
THE LATEST DEVICE
MINE OWNERS 40 UTILIZE SENSE
OF SMELL IN GIVING
WARNING

BUTTE-Fire alarms in the Butte
mining company's properties here are
to be spread through the sense .ol
smell, rather than that of hearing OF
sight. By the means of compressed
air, an unusual odor is to be forced
through the workings, and it is believ-
ed that the alarm may thus be spread
quickly.
Because it will not depend upon I'M
broken circuits, as the present sys-
tenn of electric lights does, and will
be distinctly noticeable everywhere
in the mine, it is believed that the
proposed system will be most eff
ficacious.
AS a part of it's safety first" pro-
gram at it's Black Rock mine, the
Butte & Superior company is issuing
at intervals periodical, containing a
tabulated record of all accidents
whereby man is incapacitated for IA
days or more. First aid suggestions
and rules for accident prevention also
are given.

FARE WELL IN DENMARK,

AS the result Of recent elections in
that country. women Of Denmark are
now intrusted with the highest re-
sponsibility that kingdom has to offer
Legislation in the national parlia-
ment. Attention is called to this pro-
gressive step by Mrs. Carrie Chapman
Gait, president of the International
Suffrage Alliance and president Of the
National American Woman Suffrage
Association. with headquarters in this
city.
Five women have Just been elected
to the upper house and four to the
lower" says Mrs. Gait. Denmark ia
one Of the most democratic countries
in the world. In 1907 1t began to
share the liberty of democracy with
its women. when 1t gave them the
right to vote for and to serve ON
boards OF public charity. In 1908 II
gave the municipal franchise to tax
paying women and to wives of men
who pay taxes. In 1918 1t removed the
tax qualifications and gave women
universal suffrage.
I'm 1909 127 women were serving on
the town councils of Denmark and
seven on the council Of Copenhaeen.
Women have now been appointed as
police oflcers and as municipal

CASH PAID ON TAXES
/ MAY remain IN BANKS
BY I. A. FLEMING.

It is announced that the Treasury
Department is making arrangements
to prevent or lessen any monetary
disturbance as a result of the very
heavy payments Of income and ex-
cess profits taxes expected to be made
on June Is.
1t is said to be the intention Of the
Department to treat payments as
they have the returns for liberty
loan bond sales. permitting the money
to remain in the banks on which tax
payment checks are drawn until such
time as the cash is needed by the
treasurer
While this offers no relief to taxpay-
ers. all requests for installment pay
saving measure for the banks. Sew
eral billion dollars of deposits to the
credit of individuals and corporations,
etc, will thus remain in banks for
indefinite periods. but the banks will
at once be released from carrying re-
serves against this money as soon as
the government is given credit there
for.
The immediate payment of several
billions of tax money, variously estf-
900. on one day-if the internal
revenue bureau can get the bills out
in time-would unquestionably con-
tract loans.
Treasury Department will exact as
surety for tax deposits, but the banks
can furnish ample liberty bonds and
other collateral
This is the proposition that the
banks will have to concern them
selves about-getting collateral
Banks holding Treasury certificates
issued in anticipation of tax pay
ments will simply turn them in, but
there are many smaller banks that
have not participated heavily in these
issues.
The action contemplated will make
money rates more even than IL i'm
mediate payments had been exacted
and banks will be in a better position
to extend credits for tax payments.
Wants Silver Certificates Turned In
The twelve regional banks have
called the attention of member banks
in the federal reserve system to the
recently passed law for the purchase
of silver and for melting the silver
dollars in the Treasury.
Silver certificates of the denomina-
tion of SIS and up are wanted by the
Treasury. and banks are urged to
turn them over to the federal reserve
bank of which they are members as
rapidly as possible.

ming to sit up and take more than ordi=
nary notice of the actions of A. Mitchell
Palmer. He is the federal administra-
tor Of enemy alien property and has al
ready taken over many valuable es-
tates, among them being the breweries
Of the late Adolphus Busch of St.
Louis and George Ehret Of New York.
In the case of Busch his widow has
made several trips to and from Ger
many since the war started, and this
looks particularly suspicious, as to ac-
complish it she must be on friendly
terms with the German government,
and probably hobnobbed with the royal
family at Berlin. Then, again, she
has very likely been helping the kaiser
by assisting him in financing the war.
She is now in Germany, but, report
says, will return to America. If so
her trips to Berlin should be cut short
she should be interned on general
principles.

its duty in this respect unf1inchingly,

whatever opposition whether OF crltl--
cism or of actual force may unfortu-
nately or unadvisedly be attempted"
The bolshevists of Ireland have been
permitted to have altogether too much
their own way-the government has
been too lenient with the rebel strife
breeders, but they will now have to
shoulder arms or take the conse-
quences. They have evidently been
under the impression that, backed by
the kaiser's gold, they could defy the
British government, and are now be
ginning to discover that this is an
utter impossibility Their opposition
will be crushed.

New Ulm's disloyalty is bearing
fruit fruit as bitter as gall That
pro-German city has discovered it
cannot camoufage its actual status by
rprotestations of loyalty and patriotic
demonstrations. The disguise is so
penetrable that it is virtually no dis
guise at all. New Ulm has been cate
gorized by the war department, placed
in column by itself and refused per-
mission to organize company Of Min
nesota national home guard for
reasons which are Obvious. IT'S hard
on the loyal citizens Of the place, Of
course, but if they will persist in living
among lot Of kaiserites they must
equally share the odium.

Allied airship bombing expeditions
are terrorizing the inhabitants Of
German cities, and American aviators
are doing their full share toward
bringing about this CONSERVATION.
Germans living across the Rhine felt
confident that allied airships would not
dare to venture into their territory
for fear of antiaircraft guns, but they
were badly mistaken. Airships num-
bering from dozen to thirty in fleet,
have dropped hundreds Of tons Of ex-
plosives on Cologne, Dusseldorf and
other Rhine cities, causing great
property destruction and panic among
the population. This bombing Of
German cities by aviators, however, is
merely in its incipiency. The scope of
the airplane's activities is being daily
Iextended, and some fine night the in
habitants of Berlin are liable to jump
from their beds to discover that their
dear kaiser's palace and its occupants
have been scattered all over the land
scape.
