plaintiff is the Rochester Elda Fins
Mines company and the Rochester
Mines company is the defendant.

seven claims at Rochester and they
are adjoined on the side by the Elda
Fina property.

HENDERSON AND THE
WAR MINEKALS BILL

The following comment on
Senator Henderson's war min
erals bill r taken from the
Mining and Scientific Press of
September %:
IF the house wishes to dem
onstrate that it is truly a rep
resentative body. it will reject
the mere pretense of a war
minerals bill sent to il from
the senate.
1.-The Henderson bill favors
only the rich, and in its opera
tons keeps the poor man from
obtaining an outlet for his
ores.
Under the Henderson bill a
man must first interest a bu-
reau or whatever government
official may be chosen in con-
tracing for the output of a
mine.
"It ~interposes a bureau be-
tween the citizen and the gov
eminent. There is nothing a
plain democrat hates worse
than bureaucracy, because it
is not democratic.
The bill proposed in the
house (the one thrown over
board in the senate for the
Henderson bill) was essentially
a peoples bill. for the good of
the people. The Henderson bill
is for those who can get the ear
OF the bureaucrats.
I'VE may as well have no bill
at all. II we need a great out
put of metals, We require a
measure that will enable hosts
of prospectors to produce and
ship ores; IL we do not. the
Henderson bill. which admits
of exclusive contracts without
affording a competitive mar
ket, is to be condemned for the
abuses possible under it's
terms"
Does this prove that Hender-
son is the representative OF
Big Business?

CHINA AND JAPAN.

The nations are asking China to es-
tablish an orderly government Since
the republic was established there
have been continual disturbances, and
Japan has been restrained with some
difficulty from occupying China for
restoration of order. Also for increas-
ing Japan's power in the orient.
Now that Russia has fallen to pieces
of it's own weight and because of the
Ignorance of the people it seems alto
gether probable that China, with its
more loosely bound elements, may
soon crumbic in like manner.
But China, apparently, is the nation
least concerned about its own fate.
China is not an aggressive nation. 1t
does not go abroad for conquest Its
quest has been for foodstuffs, and in
order to be able to buy soy beans and
rice it has overlooked into all its
ncighborlands
If Japan rules China and brings TO
tho Chinese all modern institutions
and developments, China will have all
these good things and Japan will have
them, too. But China will remain
solid from center to circumference.
No other people on earth have ever
united themselves in SO high a degree
of the virtues of meekness, patience
and utterly impregnable stubbornness,
as do the Chinese people.

THE PRESIDENT DEFINITE.

Among the graceful phrases Of
President wilson's reply to the greet
ing by President Poincare in Paris,
there is one statement--and only one
that may be thought to throw light
on the policies of the American mis-
sion to the peace conference. 1t fol-
lows:
II appreciate as you do sir, the
necessity of such action in the final
settlement of the issues of the war
as will not only rebuke such acts OF
terror and spoliation cas- those
wrought by the armies of the Central
Empires) but make men everywhere
aware that they cannot be ventured
upon without the certainty of just
punishment
BY this statement President Wilson
gave a mortal wound to the German
hope that somehow through Ameri-
can Influence Germany would be per-
mitted to escape from the full conse-
Quences of German crimes.
American correspondents who have
accompanied Pershing's troops into oc-
cupied GERMANY say the German peoS
pia do not consider that their armies
were beaten in battle, but that they

Al the second Hague conference the
American delegation advocated an In
ternational Court of Justice. In all
schemes for a league of nations as
distinguished from mere alliance
there is some arrangement for an in
ternational court And if there is to
he a court, it is logical to have a leg
islature to pass the laws on which the
decisions of the court may be based.
But if we stop here, and do not ar
range any scheme fer enforcement of
the laws and of the courts decisions,
the whole thing fails. 1t is clear that
there must be also an executive
branch charged with 1he administra-
ton OF the laws
AS we have already seen one thing
an administrative department might
do would be to arrange for the collec-
ton of debts from small nations. The
way it works out now is that the gov
eminent of some petty power Lorrows
money from the financiers of big
one, The money is squandered, and
after a few years no interest is paid.
The big country supports its finan-
ciers, insists on payment. and takes
over he government of the country.
And thus another province Is added
to an overgrown empire Here in
America the big country is not per-
mitted under the Monroe Doctrine to
take over the government of the de-
failing nation, and we ourselves I'M
,dertake to see that obligations of the
sort are paid. More than once we
have taken over custom houses of a
small country for this purpose

powerful neighbor She understands
clearly enough that if she had just
claim aGainst big country she could
not enforce it, She would have to re-
ly upon the big country's honor, and
honor among nations has in the past
been rather scarcer than honor among
other thieves. But if there were a
league of nations to which the small
country belonged as well as the big
one, the small country would have an
altogether different feeling. If the
police of the league of nations came
around, she would submit with bet

justice imposed by a government in
which one has a share, and another
and much more unpleasant thing to

SENATOR GETS ACTION.

The Journal has polatel out that
Senator A. A. Jones might as well be
! senator from Alaska, 50 far as any
thing done by him OF attempted hy
him in the interest of the state Of New
Mexico.
But that Senator Jones takes a

shown by the attempts he is making
TO have Lieut.. Roy II. Flamm pun

The Journal publishes the CORE
spondence relative to the matter and
also the concentrations of Lieutenant
Flamm's services in France, where he
voluntarily went as a private and
from where he was invalided home
because of disabilities incurred in the
line of duty.
That Lieutenant Flamm-promotet
for conspicuous services on the war
front-was guilty of INSTRUMENTATION

party during the recent campaign, we
admit, but we cannot regard Senator
Jones efforts to have Flamm punished
other than in the light of attempt

If Flamm had been democrat and
the president a republican, we can
vol believe ; Senator Jones would
have been using his influence to save

I knew it had been alone for con-
siderable period.
As days went by and nothing hap
pcned | began to lose that sense of
fear and didn't mind being alone at
all
| believe ii is all matter of self,
of taking ones self in hand and over
coming IT, 1t can be done.
In fact, it shouldabegin with the
little children, Many parents make
the grave mistake of soaring children
and intoxicating a sense of fear in
their little minds.
One of the first important steps is
to teach little children not to be
afraid of dark room or to be left
alone for little time. This feeling
of fear grows upon children and they
carry 1t through life.
| know a girl of eighteen who al
ways imagines that she is going to
encounter something supernatural in
darkened room or when she is
alone.
If only one would realize that there
is nothing supernatural--tha the su-
pernatural is only the natural uneX-
planned, much of the boogy-boo of the
fear of being alone would be elimi-
mated
The one time when l felt the great
est fear was once on u visit to Mann
moth cave, / was a bit tired and
wanted to rest while my friends went
on exploring with the guide.
After their lantern had turned n
corner in the cave | realized u sense
of being alone as never before, for
found myself in absolute pitch dark
ness and deadly quiet feared that
my friends might not find me, rs
there were So many miles of cave, and
that ! might suffer the fate Of travel
lers ! had heard about.
But there was the fear of no chance
for escape. There was some reason
for it,
But to fear being alone in a. house
or in an apartment actually stores
up needless nerves"
Let the person who fears reflect
that in city of nearly five million
people the percentage Of personal
danger in your home is infintesimal,
as statistics show
Therefore, this artificial feeling
might we'll be taken in hand and
banished.
