PRO.GERMANS SHOULD
NOT DESECRATE FLAG

d. e. Yoran told the students OF
one of the Eugene schools few days
ago that compelling pro-Germans 10
kiss the American flag is nothing less
than a shameful desecraticn, says the
Eugene Register, and we are inclined
to think that we have heard no saner
or more truly patriotic utterance
than this in the whole discussion of
pro-Germanism. The mob that COM
pels a kaiser,worshipper to touch his
blasphemous lips to the Stars and
Stripes is profaning the national EN-
blem. To our mind, the kiss of Judas
was the greatest insult offered to
Christ.
The American flag is the emblem
of liberty for the common man and
Of equality of opportunity for allS
Thousands upon thousands of brave
men have died cheerfully for what
that flag stands for, and thousands
more will yet die in the same cause.
1t is universally recognized that
wherever the American flag flies
there will be found freedom and JUS
tice and guarantee of the rights of
every individual. The men who are
following the flag in France today
are fighting for an ideal that is SO
high and so pure that the warped
and shrivelled intellects of the rulers
of the central empires can not even
begin to grasp it.
The ro-German in America is an
upholder of the cult that might
makes right. He believes in the di-
vine right of degenerate kings to do
as they please with the lives and the

welcome tidings T. H. Simpson re-
ceived Friday from his son Harold,
who is with the 65th regiment of Ore
gon Coast Artillery on their way to
the scenes of the big conflict. The
fathers and mothers of Ashland who
have known that their sons were
somewhere midocean among the dan
gers that lurk unseen in the subma-
rine zone can at least draw breath
of relief in the knowledge that the
ocean part of their journey is over.
The telegram Mr.. Simpson received
was released from New York, and had
been filed by Harold previous to his
sailing. Instructions had been given
the boys to address postcards to their
families telling them of their safe ar
rival, and these were filed before the
transport left the United States. AS
soon as tidings of the landing of the
transport on the other side were ca
bled to New York, these messages
we're to be released, thereby expedit-
ing matters considerably in getting
news to the home folks. Instead Of
waiting for a postcard to come from
New York, Harold Simpson filed 4

eral days before word, could come by
mail.

Siskiyou County
Chrome Industry

Within the past eighteen months
chrome mining has taken first place
in the mining industry of Siskiyou
county 1t was not until shortly af-
ter the war started that the price of
chrome reached a figure to induce
miners to prospect for the mineral.
The chrome found in the vicinity OF
Yreka has proved to be over the aver
age percentage in value and has al
ways found a ready sale, says the
Yreka News. Chrome in Siskiyou is
still in it's infancy, having been mined
similar to the way gold ore was
mined in the early fifties-just
skinned over the top or gophered,
the real values being at great depth.
It has now been demonstrated that
chrome ore is being found of higher
grade by following the seams of the
first deposit down or into the hill,
and that the second and third depos-
its are as a rule larger and richer.
Since the first of June, 1917, six
carloads of chrome have been shipped
from the Yreka railroad depot. About
so per cent of the tonnage has been
mined within few miles of Yreka,
the balance coming from Scott valley.
AS near as can be found from in
quiries, there are about seven car
loads of the mineral on different
dumps, within a few miles of Yreka,
ready to be shipped as soon as the
roads are in condition to bear heavy
traffic From inquiries made, the
prospecting for chrome in northern
Siskiyou will increase very largely
this year. During the past season
there was hardly day that there was
not from one to three agents here
looking after the chrome develop
nlents of Siskiyou and making con-
tracts for purchase. When chrome
averages nearly Al per cent in grade,
ranging from 80 to 5S per cent, it is
a paying investment both for the
miner and buyer.
The mineral is being found in large
quantities near Gazelle and over the
divide in Plowman's valley and in
the Callahan district. Scott valley
has been a producer for the past year,
but not as large as the districts near
er to the railroad. Little Humbug is
coming to the front as indicated by
reports of deposits found in that dis
trict. Several prospectors, who have
during the past few months been de-
veloping their properties, have tons
Of high grade ore on the dumps and
are still opening the deposits.
Considerable work was done on
ruine located between Hamburg and
Seiad during the season of 1917, and
from reports Of assays made, and
from miners who worked in the mine.
the ore is of a very high grade and
the deposit is over the average. This
property is owned by Yreka parties.
Il deposit near Gottville was opened
last fall by parties residing in that
district which, after being thoroughly
assayed and considerable work being
done, was purchased by San Fran
cisco parties who are now preparing
to develop the property. The pros
poets are that the ore is above the
average in values and it shows indi-
cations of branching out to make
large mine. The shipment of ores
from the klamath river will not be
made until the roads are in condition
and railroad transportation can be
obtained.

Do they really wear them? Yes, they do, tho per-
haps not in the interest of either conservation or
conservatism
They're not using silk tissue and lace for CANT
solles solely to save thick cloth for soldiers, but
when they can possibly afford it they put it on
just for the sheer delight of decking themselves in
perfectly fascinating lingerie.
Their thrifty ancestresses boarded treasures of
fine firm linen, wrapping the thick garments in
blue paper to keep them from turning yellow.
The none too thrifty modern girl also cherishes
her boxes of intimate garments as her most priced
possession, but not because there's the least dan
ger that they will turn yellow. Few of them have
substance enough to survive Tubing. And any
way, most of them pink to start with, unless
they happen to be pale blue or orchid or delicate
spring green Color seems to satisfy many girls so
much better than texture when it comes to combi-
nations.
Beginning with the stockings, because so many
girls put them first, behold how woman hosiery
has shrnk to sOcks OF course this saves consider
able silk webbing for our armies, if they use it.
Most of the airy fairy garments pictured speak

Who ever would outline them in words must have
brand new vocabulary. "Bloomers" and flights"
are outwon- "knickers' are the modern fashion.
The corset cover is outgrown-but then there's the

are suspended by simple ribbon straps are now
known as empire combinations.
Odd little boudoir jackets of lace or tinsel

beautiful shoulders And while the piece pa

frankly called trousers. These remarkable gar

trimmed with footbands of embroidery. A man

Corsets retain their ancient name and the spring
model retains also that youthful straightness and
slimness which is so different from the average fe
male figure-even in sugarless era.
a silken boudoir wrap is considered a great inn
provement over a bath robe of terry cloth cot

EDITOR THE TIMES:
have waited for some one to
recommend somebody for city Of

like to see In the city hall and
that is Ed Meath.
\ know him and have had an
opportunity to watch him at the
court house when he was treasur-
er, and all who have had an op-
portunity to follow him and his
work in office will agree with me
that he has been faithful officer
and has tried his best to serve all
alike, and II he leans to any ons
at all 1t is toward the common
people.
He would make a good mayor,
or il Mr.. Fawcett should decide
to run again, he would be a very
good man for commissioner; he
and Fawcett working together.
One thing more about Ed, Ii
that he is the same Ed whethev
he is city or state treasurer or In
private business. Not like some
others who are nice and polite to
you a few months before election,
but when you vote them into office
you are SO far below them they
cant see you.
Iwould like to see Ed Meath on
our spring ticket and II he 10 I
shall do all in my power to get
votes for him as am certain that
he would fill the office to the best
Of his ability. hope that Il any
one else has a man like him that
they will come out and recommend
him as what the laboring people
want Is to learn about the candi-
dates, especially now rs the unions
have decided to take mp politics.
