ST. JOE PLACERS.
Wallace Men Will Work Ground Dur
ina Remainder Of Summer.

Frank Rose and Alex Livingston
left on the Missoula train Tuesday
morning for the ST. Joe basin, where
Mr. Rose has a tract Of placer ground
to which he will give his attention the
remainder of the summer. Mr.. Liv-
ingston is an experienced placer min
OF and they expect to be able to make
better than wages working the ground
in limited way. The ground was
located many years ago by Peter
Sherlock, one of the earliest OF the
pioneer prospectors who is known To-
cally as peter the Hermit" 1t was
from him that Mr.. Rose acquired the
ground, which is reputed to be OF
great prospective value, but will re-
quire considerable capital to place 1t
on a profit earning basis.

along an igneous dixie on the Mother

for a scheelite vein which / believed

vein was uncovered in the creek bot
tom and has been stripped for about 80
feet in length. At the north end of
the stripping the vein appears about
four feet wide and at the south end
about 10 feet wide. The scheelite, in
accordance with it's typical or native
manner of distribution, is irregularly
distributed through the gangue in
specks, grains, chunks, seams and
veinlets. On account of its irregular
distribution it is quite impossible to
estimate by sight the percentage of
scheelite carried, and it is likewise
impossible TO arrive at an accurate

"a peculiar and important advantage
we have in the Coeury d'Alenes, where
the tungsten occurs in gold veins, is
that the gold veins are good pay veins

Guced practically free of cost. No

Germany writes Irving Bachelor for the National
Security Leagues campaign of patriotism through
education. 1t seeks to get control of the world.
1t has begun its incredible career by robbing the
German people. The savings of q thousand years Of
toll and thrift being drawn into its treasury.
1t is the prodigiously capitalized organization
the world has ever seen. This war is nothing more
less than vast business enterprise which, like
great serpent seeks to loop its coils around the
earth 1t has frankly declared its purposes, which
are exactly stated below. Here in plain words is
advertisement of its plans not in the least
drawn:
Captal Greatest in history.
Object: To break into the tills and treasure
vaults Of the world and construct new morality
for men; to demonstrate
1. The folly of Moses.
=. The insanity of Isaiah.
3. The wickedness Of Jesus Christ.
4. The wise benevolence of the devil.
5. To put the heart Of the Kaiser in the bosom
of God
The promoters of this enterprise are the most
Influential men in Germany. Unexampled profits
in prospect The riches of England, France
and America and the products of their future in
dustry shall be the reward of its stockholders The
Kaiser has put his life and fortune and ability into
this enterprise. He has promised that:
1. Hereafter there shall be no nots in the Ten
Commandments
2. Small holders may enjoy all the privilege of
raping the women in conquered states. 1t is a
necessary process in the Teutonization of other
races
8. Any one who dares to question the authority
OF Teuton in conquered state may be shot on
the instant if it be child one or both hands
may be cut off.
4 Other races shall tremble when they see the
face of German.
S. Our old adjustable, accommodating Teuton
God shall be the God of all peoples.
6. We shall compel other races to work for US,
but slavery and kindred words shall be avoided.
Let all Americans, who wish to know what would
happen if Germany wins the war, read again that
prospectus and give it little careful thought Free
peoples would be led into bondage as degraded as
that of the days of Nebuchadnezzar and the dark
ness of pagan times would return to the earth
again. This cannot be. American democracy must

And if the American fights we'll it is because he
knows what he is fighting for and what he is not
fighting for
He knows he is not fighting to Cypress a weak
people or to rob anybody of land or anything else
He knows he is not fighting for money, or be-
cause some crazy Kaiser orders him to fight.
He knows he is fighting for humanity to save

And he as gladly risks his life in this war for
humanity as he would jump into a raging torrent

They say the Canadians, the Australians and
the Americans are wonderful fighters. Isn't it be-
cause of what they know they are fighting for?
For the reason, won't the British, the
French and the Italians be better fighters that
their governments have something more inspiring
to fight for than mere bits of land-something that
appeals to the noblest qualities in any redblooded
man no matter what his language?
1t takes something more than stern discipline
and blind obedience to make a superior soldier.

Help Win the War By Singing.

American liberty was formally announced to all
mankind in the immortal Declaration new and

United States This card, standing upon the piano,
enables all the family to visualize each boy every

Following The evening meal father, mother and
children gather in the living room, read the list
aloud, and sing patriotic song to the boys in the
service, each and every one of whom is daily re-
membered by name.
This simple service was found by its origina-
to be satisfying and comforting that he pass

was so commenoatory that ne determined to organ
