 McAdoo's View
 Secretary McAdooi a letter to Senator Pullman of Nevada, author of the measure. gave various telling ar euments in favor of immediate enact ment of this legislation. He is quoted as follows:
 'T have examined the draft of the bill and venture to recapitulate briefly the purposes to be accomplished and the reasons which, in my judgement, require its enactment. The annual production of silver has varied in re- cent years, having Iuctuated from 160,000,000 ounces to 266,000, ,000 ounces per annum according to the estimates of the Director of the Mint. Production for the year 1916 amount ed to 15S, S,6OO,O0O ounces, and for the year 1917 is estimated to be approXi. mately 160,000,000 ounces. Apart from industrial requirements, estimat- ed at about 100,OO0,O00 ounces per annum, silver is used by all nations for subsidiary coinage and by India and other Oriental countries for ma jor coinage In China uncoined silver circulates as money. There are now in the Treasury of the United States 49O,00O,0O0 of Standard Silver Dollars, containing approxi- mately 375OOO,O0O ounces of fine silver Against these Standard Silver Dollars there are outstanding silver certificates, and SO long as these sil- yer certificates remain outstanding, a corresponding amount of Silver Dol lars must be held for their redemp- tion. The proposed measure is un- occasionally in the interest of a coun- try as a whole for the prosecution of the war"

 During the early part of the year the market price for copper reached a record figure, which acted as an incentive to push production to the maximum. The output for the first six from your properties reached the large figure of S0,497 ,S35 lbs. In June and July labor troubles, fomented at Bisbee by the I. W. w. and at Mo- renci by the local Mexican union, served in the case of the Copper Queen Branch to seriously affect the ore production and in the case of the Morenci Branch to cause complete suspension of operations for period of four months In September the United States government fixed an arbitrary market price for copper at 23 1-2c per pound, which obtained through the balance of the year. Ow- ing to the greatly increased prOduc- tion costs, due to the high cost of lab or and supplies, and the seriously de- creased efficiency of labor. this price caused a certain reduction of output because of the inability to work prof itably low-grade ore which previously had allowed a small margin of profit. ''The metal produced from the ores of the branches and subsidiaries of the Phelps Dodge Corporation was 153,974,692 pounds of copper; S,136- 356 pounds of lead; 1,524,632 ounces of silver, and 24.423 ounces of gold; and, in addition, there was purchased or smelted on toll at the reduction works ores yielding 51,907.5 pounds of copper; 946,921 ounces of silver and 10,957 ounces of gold.

RED OAK KILLER
Is CALLED INSANE

Red Oak.-The jury in the trial OF
Roy l.. Clark for the murder of Mr..
and Mrs. Jno. T. Bell on the Edward
Hayes farm eight miles northeast of
Red Oak, on August. %, 1914. brot
in verdict late last Friday declaring
Clark insane. Judge Thomas Arthur
at once sentenced the prisoner to be
committed to the ward for the GRIM
inal insane in the penitentiary at An
amosa and there confined until his
reason is restored. at which time he
is to be returned to Montgomery
county and tried upon the charge of
murder.
The case went to the jury at 1890
O'Clock in the morning. Six ballots
were required before the jury arrived
at verdict. The difficulty arose
over the question as to whether the
verdict should be based upon the tes-
timony OF the physicians or whether
the jurors should make their decis-
ion on their own observation of the
prisoner.
Dr.. Max Z. White, superintendent
of the state hospital for the insane at
Clarinda, and four Red Oak physi-
clans gave as their opinions that
Clark is insane. Clark sat with his
eyes glued to the floor as the verdict
was read and the sentence pronounc-
ed. His father and mother and wife
sat as spectators of the proceedings
with, the audience which filled the
court room but showed no signs of
emotion at the reading of the verdict
or the sentence imposed. His wife
took him by the arm as he passed
from the court room and walked back
to the Jail with him.

SUGGEST ORDER OF M
ELEMENT PARTS EARLY

Overhaul farm machines and or
der repairs long time in advance.
Traffic congestion and materials
shortage make this imperative. De-
lay may mean serious loss.
Such is the warning being sent
out broadcat to the farmers in
Iowa this week through the med
iums of the press. posters, pam
phlets and "stickers'' tiny heralds
pasted on shipped packages and in
any other place that may be seen
and read. The warning comes from
the Fuel. Food and Conservation
committee of the State Council of
Defense. An appeal is also being
made to the Food Production and
Conservation county chairmen of
the state council, farm implement
dealers and bankers, urging their CO.
operation in saving the state from
loss through lack OF adequate ma
chinery for the cultivation and har-
vest of crops
There is an obligation on all of
Us" says this appeal, "to warn the
farmers Of the delays they are likely
to encounter in securing farm ma
chinery and repair parts. Urge ev-
cry farmer to so over his farm
equipment now and ascertain what
new machines he is likely TO need
during the coming season. This
will give the railroads a little time
to get the repair parts to him be-
fore they are actually needed. This
precaution will save time and money
and in some instances may save the
farmers entire crop.
Implement dealers should carry
stocks of repairs fully equal to or
above normal requirements"

Banker Asked to Resign

Cedar Rapids.-A mass meeting of
business men was held at Independ-
ence recently in which it was decided
to circulate petition calling for the
resignation of r. b. Rains, president
of the First National bank of that
city, and chairman of the county de-
Tense council. Rams is one of the
men who signed the exemption affi-
davits for Hugh Helder Wilson, poll
tician and farmer who so far has
been able to keep out of the army.
The meeting was called after a tele-
gram from twenty Independence SOL
diers at Camp Cody had been receiv-
ed denouncing the two men who
signed the affidavit and also attack
ing Wilson as a Stacker. Rains says
he did not know the full contents of
the affidavits when he signed.
Wilson. who recently resigned as
deputy county clerk, bought farm
last May and recently he has been
endeavoring to obtain exemption
from the draft. The local board re-
fused and placed him in Glass one.
Wilson then took the matter up with
the district board and was placed in
a deferred classification. The dis
trict board is to be asked to repoen
the case and place the man in class
one 1T is said. Two weeks ago irate
residents of Buchanan county painted
Wilson's house yellow and his fence
black. He is an unmarried man and
comes from wealthy family. The
feeling against him is high. In de-
fene of himself Wilson asserts that
his farm needs him and that to join
the army would cost him $1,000 a
wear

Getting Many Cars at Hancock

Hancock.-The car shortage which
has been seriously affecting the farm
ers of this section has been largely
relieved and heavy shipments are be-
ing made every day. Cattle and hogs
had been in many cases fed two
months longer than the owners had
figured on and some were losing the
hogs on account Of being too fat.
Many farmers who have to move and
who had not delivered their corn
were also getting anxious for empty
grain cars. We are now getting from
three to seven stock cars every day
and grain cars in proportion. The
farmers are very busy delivering
their cattle hogs and grain.
