On the hill commanded by Brig. Gen.
CASTOR, two championship banners re-
pose as the result of the winning of

18th Depot Brigade.
The base ball flag was won by the
score of to 0, from the 315th Infan-
try, Lefty" Thompson turning the
trick in great style and allowing only
one hit. He got two beautiful singles
himself and his teammates played
faultless ball. Sylvester, Evans and
Mack came through with nice bingles.
The blow-up was staged in the eighth,
when McMonagle issued several passes
Socks Seibold of the 315th, who
defeated the 313th Infantry Saturday,

MINING TRADE SCHOOL AT
TRACTS MUCH ATTENTION.

If the school for training miners,
which is about to be established in
this district, proves successful, the
system will doubtless be followed in
all other mining states, and within a
few years the beneficial results will
be apparent in the improved qualf-
cations of underground workmen. 1t
may be that there are those who are
disposed to discredit the system as
impractical and doomed to failure.
They may be right, but the Miner
does not agree with them. Vocational
schools have proved successful in
making skilled craftsmen in almost
every other industry. What Is there
about the work of miner that rem
ders 1t impractical to acquire a knowl-
edge of his trade in the same way?
Why should an ambitious young man
be required to muck for a long and
indefinite period with only rare and
uncertain opportunities to acquire the
skill and practical knowledge of a
miner, when under the direction of O.
that result in a couple of months?
The instruction will include every
thing that miner is called upon to
do underground, and all that will be
lacking in the qualifications of those
who take the course will be self CON
fidence which will soon follow with
practical knowledge as basis, and
mature Judgment which will come
with experience The man who takes
this miners trade course will be in a
position comparable to the college
graduate, with. this advantage that
the miner will have had practical
WI hil6 CAptlf NliSS III

ENACT SANE LAWS.
Idaho Statesman


The wise know that foolish legis-
lation Is a rope of sand which per-
ishes in the twisting" Emerson wrote
many years ago, and then added,
=. the form of government
which prevails is the expression Oh
what cultivation exists in the popu'a-
ton which permits it,
In Idaho there have been twisted
ropes of sand beyond counting. Only
two years ago the floors of the state
house We're gritty when the Legislature
adjourned,
Next month members elected to The
state senate and to the lower house
will gather at Boise from the Al coun-
ties of the state. OF foolish laws we
already have more than enough. We
need no more ropes of sand in Idaho
But we do need a few new laws
good laws. And some of the old ropes
of sand should be swept away--siouid
be replaced by sound and durable
strands which will endure not only
twisting but wear and tear, weight
and strain. Above all, we need new
election laws. and a substitute for the
present absurd primary law And
that substitute should be so strong a
rope that any persons who attempt to
misuse it will. like the calf of tho
adage, hang themselves.

STOP ALIEN PROPAGANDA.
National Republican,

(Nati0nal RepuDllcan)
There ought to be thorough in
vestigation Of the whole question OF
foreign propaganda.
1t is apparent that Germany had a
powerful corps of agents, particularly
press agents, in this country. before
the war, and there is every reason to
believe that this has been the prac-
tice of other foreign nations as we'll.
No objections can be made to pleas
made in the open in behalf of any
nation by it's recognized agents. But
this thing of hiring newspaper men,
educators and politicians to represent
the political and commercial interests
of allen powers, and permitting them
to operate under the name of Ameri-
cans, must stop If the people are not
to pay the penalty of such alien plot
ting.
We should know just what has
been expended in this country in agi-
tation in behalf of any foreign nation
before the European war and we
should know who is operating along
this line after the war is over. 1t
should be made a criminal offense to
carry on in this country any sort of
alien agitation under false pretenses.
The creed of every American should
be America first. Any citizen of the
United States who would put the in
terests of other countries before those
of his own, or who would sacrifice the
interests of this country in behalf of
any foreign nation or group of ma
tons, is a traitor and should be treat
ed as such.

of chromite, magnesite, manganese
and other metals in this country is
clearly indicated by the fact that he
has authorized the secretary OF the
interior TO administer the law, with
one reservation, namely, the secretary
is specifically denied the power to act
under the clause authorizing pro-
tective tariff. In this matter the
president has taken a position in d.
rect defiance of the provision of an
act of congress, which. In anticipation
of possible loss to producers of these
metals, specifically empowered him
to proclaim such rate of duty upon
such imported necessaries as shall be
sufficient to adequately protect the
United States from any such loss"

EFFICIENCY DECREASED AS THE
WAGES ADVANCED.

During the war when labor was
short and wages reached the highest
level ever known, the complaint was
universal among mining operators,
and among other large employers of
labor as well, that the standard of
efficiency was lower. This can be
partly explained in the fact that the
scarcity of labor made it necessary to
employ many inexperienced men. But
there is another reason that entered
into the case to even a greater ex-
tent and which employers OF labor
recognize even in normal times. 1t
is the frequent changes in the work.
ing force When an old and capable
employee quits and his place is taken
with an equally capable man, there Is
necessarily a break in the smooth
running system until the new man
becomes accustomed to his new sur
roundings. While there is no doubt
an earnest and unselfish desire on the
part of employers to improve work.
ing conditions solely because their
employees are entitled to it, the fact
is well understood that satisfied work.
men means sfewer changes in the
force and therefore greater efficiency.
When wages are high and men
scarce wage earners become more in
dependent and attach less value to
their jobs, leading to frequent changes
to the detriment of employers. Re-
viewing mining conditions in Arizona,
j. c. Curry, secretary Of the state
chapter of the American Mining con-
gress, has this to say of low eff
cheney that characterized the year:
I'm mining and manufacturing
generally it is reported there has
been VIGOROUSLY diminished eff
cheney in work per hour or shift.
Although wages are higher. eff
cheney Is low. While this is
clearly noticeable in manufacture
ing, 1t is more real than notice.

BRITISH VIEW OF FREEDOM OF

I'VE enter the peace conference with
the absolute determination that no
limitation shall be imposed on our
right to maintain our naval defense,
declares winston Churchill, minister
of British munitions. I'VE do not in

strictions which will prevent the Brit
ish navy maintaining its well tried

OWNERSHIP AND
PUBLIC SERVICE.

Writing on shipboard while return
ing from a long visit in Europe, Ed
itor C. W. Barron, of the Boston News
Bureau, says:
'The great development in the
telephone has come in the Unitei
States where there has been no
government interference. In
England the telephone has been
for many years joke. Six pence
kilograms cost the taxpayers
double that amount, and there is
no incentive to work or invent for
an improbable service
Advocates of government ownership
take pleasure in telling about the low
rates charged for telegraph service in
England. but they forget to tell about
the deficits that must be met by tax
alton. Advocates of government OPP
Grated railroads like to tell of the
great reforms they expect to see ac-
complished, but they disregard the
teachings of experience in England
and Canada.

The Metal Situation

Engineering and Mining JournaD
AS producers get their bearings
through partial lifting of the fog that
enshrouded them upon the sudden adj
vent Of the armistice they begin to
get views that are not very cheerful.
The copper producers find them
selves with about SO0,O00,OO0 lb. Of
crude copper on hand and in transit,
which was very costly to produce. AL
though there is no great stock of re-
fined copper. it is now beginning to
accumulate. Australia and Japan also
have stocks of copper. Great Britain
does not apparently need to buy any
copper right away Germany can't.
Lead manufacturers are experience
ing unexpected cancellations, and lead
is backing upon them and Is also ac-
cumulating on the hands of the pro-
ducers. The reduction by the latter
of the price to 7.05 cents did not slim
ulate any buying worth mentioning.
The lead producers are facing the
facts better than anyone else and are
curtailing their outputs. The Mexican
output is also being curtailed. The
disposition of that supply, which must
go abroad, is a matter Of concern,
as also is the rise Of the London price
to 40 pounds, on which basis some
of the Mexican ore Is bought.
Zinc, having had free market, Is
less disturbed than copper or lead, but
the situation with respect to high
grade metal, which Is increasing in
supply, affords food for thought
Great Britain seems to be well sup
piled with zinc. but France probably
has need of some for immediate re-
Quirements, and it Is the hope
Of selling to her that has in part boil
stored UP our market for common
spelter However, we cannot be sure
that France will buy all her spelter
from us and not any from Japan. OF
one thing We can be sure, and that Is
that Australian ore is going to be de-
livered to Europe for smelling just as
soon as shipments and smelling ar
rangements can be managed.
In the Joplin district the mining of
zinc ore has become pretty unprofit-
able, and production is largely cur
tailed. The sliding scale arrangement

WHY THERE WILL BE NO SHORT.
AGE OF JOBS.

The administration need not hest
tate to cancel war contracts on the
ground that cessation of work on
them will throw numbers Of men out
of employment A study of immi-
grafton figures for the past few years
furnishes one of the answers to that
proposition 1t appears that in the
last four years the population of the
United States increased only about
500, 900 from alien immigration,
whereas in the preceding four years 1t
increased nearly 100000. In other
words we have probably 100000 and
possibly 100000 fewer workers in
this country today than we would
have had if the war had not inter-
fered. Not only does that fact insure
against unemployment of our civil
but it also goes far to
solve the problem of what to do with
our returning soldiers when they are
demobilized. BY far the greater pro-
portion of them will find positions
ready and waiting for them.

able in mining when per ton OF
ore per man is taken into consid-
Grafton. Figures may be set up to
show that efficiency has either
increased or decreased. but per-
sonal observation viii, in every
instance, show efficiency in work.
ing forces since the pre-war per-
iod has materially decreased.
This condition is due to several
things, but more particularly to
increase in wages and scarcity OF
labor. The theory that a raise in
wages tends to lower efficiency
has been clearly proven during
the past year. Labor turnover
has been greater There is a fin
ancial loss with change Of work
men. However capable one man
might be to fill another's place it
costs money to make the change.
These changes are more frequent
when work is plentiful and wages
are high"

State conventions, composed OF
delegates selected by county prinarS
elections. to nominate candidates Tor
state offices, is a plan that Is proposed
to take the place of the present sys-
TEN. 1t is believed that the legislature
will make radical changes In the
primary law to overcome some OF us
glaring defects, and the change men
toned has met with much favor. But
whatever is done, the legislature can
hardly go wrong, for it is difficult to
conceive of a change that would not
be an improvement upon the present
primary law.
