GOVERNMENT NEEDS MEN
IN CIVILIAN BRANCHES
SPECIALISTS IN ARMY AND
NAVY DEPARTMENTS.

How many of us realize what would
become of our forces in France if the
organization at home for producing the
material of war should fail? Charg-
ing armies and laundering battleships
are easy to visualize, but not so easy
to accomplish. There can be no go
ing "over the top" no paralyzing
broadsides, unless, to sustain the
blow, there is material in abundance
to back up the human effort.
Right now the civilian branches of
the army and navy are in urgent need
of thousands of highly trained work.
ers, and before this year passes these
branches must be increased by at
least 10000. The ordnance depart
ment of the army needs great num-
bers of men who are trained as me-
chanical engineers, mechanical and
other kinds Of craftsmen, chemists,
metallurgists and the like. Literally
thousands of inspectors are also
wanted for the work of passing upon
the quality of everything conceivable
in the way of ordnance, ammunition,
and other munitions.
In Ordnance Department.
For office work the ordnance de-
partment wants a great many statisti-
clans, accountants, experts and assist
ants in business administration, and

(Minna Irving in New York SUM
Go 1t! Go it, tough old bird,
Make the Teuton's feathers fly,
Rip and tear with beak and claw,
Peck him in the dual eye.
Chase him all around the pit,
Slash him with your steely spurs,
Wallop him with both your wings,
Hit him every time he stirs.
Let the bastard Prussian fowl
Feel the force of Freedoms might,
Change his predatory scream
To a squawk of frenzied fright.
Old bald eagle of the States.
Show him what your breed can do:
For the world is looking on,
And the bets are all on you.

JONES IS APPOINTED
UNITED STATES MARSHAL
NUGENT PICKS GAME WARDEN
SUCCEED MARTIN-SPLIT
WITH ELDER.

Leroy C. Jones will succeed T. L.
Martin, for four years United States
marshal for Idaho 1t has been ex-
pected for three weeks that Jones
name would be sent to the senate by
the president for confirmation, accord
ing to the Boise Statesman.
The appointment does not come as
a surprise except perhaps to Mr.. Mar
tin and some of his friends, because it
was known in political circles that Mr..
Jones would be supported for the
marshalship when John F. Nugent
was appointed by Governor Alexander
to fill out the late Senator James H.
Brady's unexpired term in the senate.
Active in Idaho Politics.
Mr.. Jones is state game warden. He
has served in that position for more
than three years. Prior to his APP
pointment to that job he lived at
Gooding, where he was engaged in the
livestock business. He served two
terms as sheriff of Lincoln county,
and has for years been identified with
Idaho politics.
Mr.. Jones will resign his position
with the state when the senate af-
firms his appointment, and according
to present plans he will be succeeded
in the game department by w. H.
Thorpe, his chief deputy. Mr.. Thorpe
lives in Boise.
Victory for Nugent Wing.
The change in the marshal's office
is recognized in political circles as the
first victory for the Nugent faction
over the Hawley wing in the demo-
cratic party since John F. Nugent was
sent to the senate. Mr.. Jones has
been an active worker in the Nugent
faction since 1914, when he sought the
marshalship. Prior to that time he
had been more or less closely associ-
ated with the Hawley group.
Because of the Scandal.
Mr. Martin, for years one of Mr.
Hawley's supporters, was given the
marshalship back in 1914, after a
spirited fight among Idaho democrats
He is generally believed to have lost il
last fall, when he and his chief dep
uty, c. B. Steunenberg, quarreled or
the streets Of Occur d'Alene. The
United States marshal pulled a gun or
his deputy in that affair. Since then
Mr.. Stuenenberg has resigned his jot
under Mr.. Martin, and because of the
scandal which resulted, Mr.. Martins
friends found it impossible to hold
him in Office for second term.
Cause of Split.
Immediately after the affair al
Occur dAlene several Idaho demo-
Gratis were talked of for the marshal
ship. George II. Fisher. chairman Of
the state industrial accident board

Daily Quotations Of Silver, Lead, Zinc and Copper
Which Are the Actual Basis Of Settlement

The accompanying table gives the
quotations Of silver, lead. zinc and
copper as obtained by the Engineer
ng and Mining Journal and which are
generally specified as the basis Of set
lement in ore contracts with the
smelters. The quotations published In
he daily press are usually higher for
the reason that they represent sales
in small cts, while the figures here
given are based on large transactions

and are generally determined from re-
ports made by producers and selling
agencies. Both the New York and st.
Louis prices Of lead are given, the Diff
ference being due mainly to the differ.
ence In freight between the two points.
The quotations for spelter are for
prime western brands. To arrive at
the New York price add II cents per
100 pounds to the st. Louis price.

Some day. and possibly before very
long, the question of repeating the

law giving the locators of mineral

within the surface boundary lines ex-
tended downward vertically, but it is
not believed that congress will per-

war. The mining interests are di-
vided in opinion on the ACCESSIBILITY
Of changing the law and both sides
would be entitled to exhaustive hear
ings before the congressional commit
tee. These would consume much time
and divert attention from the more
pressing questions of war. Another
reason for deferring action is that
there is a feeling among men engag
ed in mining that there should be a
general revision Of the mining laws;
in fact, there Is a committee repre-
senting the various barnches of the
mining industry which, up to the time
war was declared. was engaged in
preparing recommendations to con-
gress regarding proposed changes in
the mining laws. The interests of the
industry will be best served by wait
ing for this committees report and
then taking up the whole question of
revision at one time, when all differ
ences Of opinion may be threshed out,
rather than attempt to amend the law

Henderson bill now before the senate,
