The choice for the republican nomi-
nation for congress in the second dis
trict Of South Dakota lies between
Senator Donald Mclean, of Day coun-
ty, now completing his third term in
the state senate, and Royal C. John
son, now serving his second term in
congress, Mr.. Patterson of Potter
county having withdrawn from the
field.
So far as Mr.. Johnson is concerned,
the chief objections to his renomina.
ton centers around his enlistment in
the regular army. 1t is understood
that he is seeking an officers commits
sion. having enlisted as a private, and
it is presumed that if he succeeds in
passing the required examination he
will go to France in the comparative
ly near future.
In any case, his service in the army
will operate, to all intents and pur-
poses, to leave the district without
representation in congress, in the
event of his denomination and re-elec-
ton, until the close of the war. The
general supposition is that Mr.. John
son hopes for denomination largely
for the purpose of vindicating his vote
against a
We have heard no serious objections
to Mr.. Johnson as a man, or to his
sincerity of purpose in office. He had
served two terms in the Office of at
torney general prior to his elevation
to congress. He is brilliant as a pub
lie speaker and is rated as a lawyer
of ability.
Concerning Senator Mclean, it may
be said that he commands the respect
of his neighbors in a marked degree.
AS a man he stands high in the COM
munity. In intellectual attachments
he is said to rank among the fore,
most. Senator Mclean is engaged in
farming and has no other occupation,
excepting as a stakeholder in a farm
ers' elevator company.
1t is fortunate that two men of
such high personal standing are cam
didates for the party nomination. 1t
is particularly fortunate that a man
of Senator McLean's character and
worth is before the people of the dis
trict, for we are inclined to think that
many republicans who might other
wise favor Mr.. Johnson's renomina-
ton will vote for a candidate like
Mr.. Mclean on the ground that the.
district cannot afford virtually to dis
franchise itself during one of the most
critical periods of the eountry's ex-
i%tstence as a nation.

property that is particularly promis- ing. The Lincoln is being put into shape for production by group of St. Louis capitalists.
 The Swastika is shipping high grade silver ore to Utah and low grade to the Humboldt shelter. The Nelson has been taken over by Philadelphia capitalists who promise large imme- diate developments. What conditions viii be a year from now in this sec tion cannot be foretold.
 The mill of the Bradshaw Reduction company which has pointed the way is already too small for the possible production of the Wildflower and addi- tional units to double it's capacity are planned. The production of the other mines will require more equipment. Mines that have been idle for years will certainly respond to the impetus of the S1 per ounce price of silver and the possibilities of recovering a large proportion of the values in the com plex ores, making the copper, zinc, and lead additional values instead of their being a handicap.
 Big profits are now assured from many Crown King ores that were once considered worthless in spite of their high values. Good returns can be counted on from medium grade mill ing ores that were formerly thrown on the dump as waste. As a conse- quence, a new era of activity has en- sued in this district, which, forty years ago was the most feverishly ac- tive part of Arizona. The extension of the lines of the Arizona Power com pany which makes power available, the big customs reduction works and shelter at Humboldt and the newer Notation reduction works and teaching plant just completed at Mayer will all help to bring new and old mines of Crown King into the profitable pro ducing class.

PRACTICE OF SILENCE"
 MUST BE OBSERVED

To prevent the possibility of valua- ble information getting into Germany, the American Red Cross, in sending letters behind the enemy lines at the request of persons in this country, is following carefully a plan worked out by the State Department to do away with code.
 Americans, Germans or others in the United StateS wishing to communi- cate with relatives in Germany must now write out their message in Red Cross chapters throughout the coun- try These are sent through the di- vision offices of the organization to national headquarters. Here they are rewritten and the wording absolutely changed to prevent the sending of any diagram or secret code. The messages are then gwen to the censorship board and are passed CT refused by them as the case may be. When they reach a neutral country, they are translated on other paper and in most cases deliv- cred by the Fed Cross of the place, to which they go. The plan is consid- cred as spy proof as i4 is possible to devise.
 During the last 9 years the prac- tIce has grcwn up that welfare in- quiries and messages shall be permit ted between civilians in countries which are at war with each other. The promiscuous sending of letters through organizations in neutral countries could not be permitted because of the large number of enemies in the cOun- try. To prohibit entirely the sending of messages would, for example, pre- vent a loyal American frOra finding out whether his sister, unfortunately, married to a German, was alive or dead. Prohibition was in force for time and pitiful appeals were received by the Red Gross from French, Bel gians and Italians begging the society to get word for them as to whether their people in the occupied districts were still alive.
 The State Department presented the present plan in detail and asked that the Red Cross put 1t into effect AS it was q purely humanitarian work, the government could do no more thao supervise the work.
 Today the American Red Cross is sending an average of 1900 letters a day to persons EvIrg behind the en- cn.y lines. This work is done through Washington headquarters of the Am erican Red Cross by the bureau of communication of which Edward M- Day is acting director.

ENDORSES CANDIDATES

The meeting of the Republican State committee, held last week in Douglass endorsed Thomas Mad dux for congress. Lieut.. Maddux is now in France and although effort was made to reach him word to his acceptance of the doubtful honor has been received. The people of Alizona honor Lieut.. Mad dux and wish him good luck and safe return, but doubt very much the wisdom of the Republicans in trying out what they believe to be a political expe dienJ in nominating an army for office. MadduX all right the army, but his actions in the late campaign and it's resulting tribuations as Camp bells manager will not impress the people with his judgment We dc not for one moment believe that Maddux under any circumstances would have a run for his money with Carl Hayren and Campbell can not beat any one Of the mentioned for governor on the Democratic ticket. The Republicans of Ari- zona have some splendid timber for governor and they should have brought some of it forward. On the other hand they should have endorsed Carl Hay den because he las made good in every department.

Hon. Fred Sut,er, a member of the state senate, has announced his candidacy for the governorship of the great state of Arizona. A few weeks ago the Miner had occasion to refer to Mr. Suffers can
 ddacy along the lnes of healing the breach in the party But healing the breach is not to be compar- ed with getting the proper man for the office And Fred SutUer is the real thing for governor no mat ter what may be thought of his views and antagon- ism with Gov. Hunt Sutter is a thoroughly good fel- low hones conscientious able and active. If elected governor he would give the people administration Of which We could all feel proud. Mir. Sutter has been a member of the Arizona legislature the past several terms and has made an excellent record for fairness to all classes in the framing of laws, and among the miners of the big camp of Bisbee he IS looked upon with favor.

UNIVERSAL JUSTICE

We have it from the Socialists that they want uni versal brotherhood, but have failed to find any ind
 cation of that utopian theory having percoated through their craniums. On the other hand the great mass of American people believe that the one essential basis of free government IS universal jus tice justice that can see the wrongs inflicted upon others and stands ready to right them without thought of pecuniary gain in doing. America to- day is engaged in the great work of fighting the wrongs imposed by despot upon the peoples of con tinental Europe; is spending its blood and money that the peoples of the small European states may live and enjoy the liberties that God has ordained that all men should have. Justice is the one thing that the kings of the old world have no knowledge of and it devolves upon America and her allies to i'm press 1t so thoroughly upon them that it will never be forgotten. But the people want more than univer sal justice in government; they want universal jus tice between man and man, and then, possibly some of these impossible utOpian ideas may prevail

OVERCOMING CowHEEL AND sAUsAGEs
L(Bv Robert G. SevmOurl


 This war is not an issue between greed and ambi- tion. It is greed and ambition arrayed against the justice of humanity.
 Not having reached the age of universal brother hood, America insists on universal justice.
 America reyerences her conscience as her king America gIories in redressing human wrong.
 But America is being delayed in her efforts to achieve the triumph oi right mainly by the few who are determined to exact from the great-sOuled many the last penny of gain. The few may prate about they loyalty but they are minting your sacrifices in to gold While they shout for the passing soldier their are scheming to dstill mothers tears into dvi dends. Their words are sentimentaly patriotic but their deeds are cowheel and sausages-commercial. The man who pays seventeen cents for hogs on the hoor and sells you bacon for 65 cents pound is stealing your Liberty Bonds.
 The man who makes ten cents barrel on flour more than he is entitled to is fiching your War Savings Stamps.
 The company that, on account of 20 per cent in crease in wages to employees, exacts % per cent higher rates from its patrons, is rObbing the Red Cross and killing your sons and your brothers and your sweethearts.
 Come on, capitalists take your pound of flesh, though it drain the last drop of blood from our hero millions.
 Come on, corporations, gather in your dividends though the rivers of France run red!
 Drive on, manufacturers, drive your chaflOI or commerce to its golden goal the hopes, the hap piness and the honor of helpless humanity!
 You can build cathedrals, endow colleges, erect statues with the money, but all your profits cannot put life back into a single of boys who dies that humanity may be free
 You profiteers will not win this war, for this IS a war that will be won by sacrifice. And the great hearts of France England, Belgium, Italy and Amer lea are making the sacrifice.
 You profiteers are standing in the way of world Iberty you are betrayng the cause of America, but you shall not ruin US so that will beg at your doors.
 You profiteers talk of personal right, of rights Of property of rights of labor rights of capital rights of trade That is sordidness, it is all cowheel and sausages.
 We are beyond the day in commerce when 1t IS merely that man should not lie cheat or steal. There must be more than integrity and temperance and fairhfuness to obligations Excepting you prof iteers, America is doing right, not for policy, but because it is righteous. America is place for cal culating morality.
 What matters an extra billion dollars if we have the happiness and .glory of consciously acting for humanity?
 Be brave to mankind if you would not be cowardly before God.
 selfshness is the only unpardonable sin.

Germany is destined to rule the world at least great part of it. The lives of human beings are to be conserved only if it makes for the states advancement, their lives are to be sacrificed if it is to the states advantage. Starvation is here; candidly would like to see it relieved; we feel our soldiers may be unfavor ably affected by the things that they see. But since t is here starvation must serve our purpose So we set it to work for Germany. This country was meant for Germany. It is a rich al luvial country which Germany has needed for some generations. We propose to remove the able bodied Poles from this country It leaves 1t open for the inflow of German working people as fast as we can spare them. They will occupy it and work. By and by we shall give back Poland and it will then be automatically German vince."-(Gen von Kries, 1916)

more to the inability OF the players

The shock battalion of the base.
ball forces in the early days OF
the game were composed en-
tirely Of the backstops. With I'M
gloved hands, unmarked faces, un-
padded bodies they stood behind the
plate, battered by foul tips, bonn
barded by swift pitching, and though
bruised and bleeding never gave ut
terance to a complaint. Blackened
eyes, broken noses, crushed teeth
were the marks of battle that they
exhibited and the carnage continued
till the arrival of the friendly mask
and the protecting breast pad, re-
marks a writer in The New York
Sun.
True these painful features were
absent during the infancy of the
game, for until 1859 the catcher dis
creetly remained twenty feet behind
the plate and took the pitched ball on
the bound. But this made base run
ming farce, for a man who reached
first could romp around to third
without the slightest hindrance. Some
Of the more venturesonne catchers in
sisted on standing up behind the
plate, the first backstop to do so be-
club in 1859.
Nat Hicks followed the example
and proved one Of the most daring
Of the bare hand, unprotected face
catchers. In 1875 the catcher's mask
was invented by F. w. Thayer of
Harvard, and Jim Tying, a college
player, was the first to wear it.
Then organized baseball passed a
rule that catchers must go behind
the bat and the bruising Of the back
stops became more general.
ubbRer Between Teeth.
So many of the catchers had their
teeth broken that one OF them hit on
the plan Of holding between his teeth
a piece Of solid rubber while up be-
hind the bat. This protected the
teeth, but faces and hand still bore
the brunt of the battle.
Then one day a catcher appeared
with a pair Of kid gloves, the fingers
of which had been cut off,, on his
hands. These furnished little pro-
lection and the mutilation Of catch
ing hands continued till the arrival
of the big glove.
Strange as it may seem, many Of
