KEEP RIGHT ON.

The head of the government shlpbulldlng
forces has found it necessary to warn the manu-
facturers and workmen engaged in that indus
trv that they will be expected to continue their
labors until the big shpbuilding program IS
completed 1t might be wise to sound SINH
lar warning in other important war Industries.
Many of these industries, of course, lack the
permanent value Of shpbuilding. Some will go
right on with their work after the war tor Il
considerable time at least. Others will no doubt
proceed at once to curtail their output soon
as peace is absolutely assured. Few employers
or workmen know with any certainty that their
product will not be needed for long period All
er peace terms are agreed upon.
The only safe way is for everybody con
cerned to go ahead, producing war materials
with unflagging zeal until the government
sends official notice to stop. Any relaxation
before that time might be fatal.

COURAGE IN COMMON.

One of the soldiers from Camp Kearny, who
has since been in the fighting in France, in the
course of a letter to his mother casually writes
Il never knew courage was so common. Every
body seems to have it." That is what discipline
and companionship do to nature Many man
who. in the solitude of his lonely SOUL adudgeS
himself coward turns out to be hero under
stress of circumstances. But the turning point
Of the war was when the Americans in goodll
numbers appeared on the front line. The boys
had only trained long enough to find out that
fbev were not cowards-that is, each one had
found that, after ALL he was just as brave as his
comrade, and from thence to rashneSs is but a
step Courage is common with any wholesome,
right-minded race, when banded in just ana
honorable cause.

TAKES TINE.

Under six months of government operation
the railways show increased running expenses
of nearly five hundred million dollars. only
about half of which is represented by the in
creased wages allowed to employees. At the
same time freight and passenger rates were adj
vanced an average of about 25 per cent. The
net earnings of the roads fell off more than 10
per cent. If this gait is to keep up the original
stockholders of the roads would be glad to have
the government take their holdings off their
hands. There's no fun in being a shareowner
in a goVernment-operated railway. 1t is pretty
hard as vet to figure out an advantage to anyone
save a few employees whose pay has been in
creased

We understand that a lease and bond has been given to eastern par ties on the Bi-Metal mines, three miles south of Kingman, and that as soon as drills can be obtained the big vein will be drilled to a depth of 500 or more feet for the purpose of ascertain ing the area of naturalization.

Should it be found to go to ndeIlnite depth the property ought to be one of the big things of the state.
