81 Y feet, a length of 400 feet and
a depth of 500 feet would produce
100000 tons of ore, and if the value
as indicated by samplings, is taken
be expected to produce $9,10S 900
gross from the present workings.
However, it is not from the present
workings that the full value of the
mine may be expected, as the ap-
pearance and size of the vein surely
indicate that the orebodies will per-
sist to great depth. In addition to
the portion of the vein now de-
veloped, a length of approximately
so feet to the southeast and APP
proximately $50 feet to the north
west along the trend of the vein be-
fore the boundary lines of your
property would be reached.
also there are great possibilities
in the gold vein and other known
veins on the property.
ION the 475-foot level very little
prosecuting has been accomplished,
but the southeast drift has been
driven a distance of $50 feet. The
northwest drift shows little value.
the main crosscut shows 80 feet of
IS pre-, the first &c feet of the
southeast drift shows values of
from So to $50 per ton, the next
10 feet samples across the width of
the drift at five-foot intervals give
average assay values of $14S per
ton, on account of a turn in the
drift the foOtwall of the vein was
reached and the drift does not show
values again until the 250-foot point
is reached, at which point the values
appear and ore continues to the sur
face averaging about $22 per ton.
"Raises were driven from the AIS
to the 370-foot levels at the so and
4OO-foot points southeast of the
main crosscut. The raise driven at
the 5O-foot point showed average
assays of $34.SO per ton. The raise
driven at the 400-foot point showed
average assay values of $3.50 per
ton.
ION the 580-foot level the main
crosscut has been driven cross the
vein showing a width of 35 feet and
average values of IS per ton. A
drift has just been started to the
southeast along the vein."

What is the use of saying that American control of immi-
grafton is implied in the league covenant.> Why have it i'm
Piled? Why is it not stated in language that is so plain that
We do not have to call on Mr.. Taft or even on Mr.. Wilson to
explain it to the rest Of mankind?
To most Americans such explanations are super silly.
70 imply a thing is a folly when it can be stated. If, as we
are told, it is understood, why not write it in the covenant in
such words as all can understand?
The truth is that this matter and many others are left
vague enough to cause debates without end i'll the future. In
drawing up a contract it is better to state in plain language
what is wanted than to imply it in vague language. Those
who know what is implied may be dead some time, and how
are their successors going to understand it?
TO open covenants openly arrived at it is needful to add
plain facts stated in plain language. The one is as essential as
the other.

NO NEED o HASTE

The Washington Star, published at the seat of the pres
AT debate, has the following comforting and reassurl
nment:
Senators advocating reservations TO the treaty are
encouraged in their work by the fact that after reject
treaty in the shape it held when he came from Paris
in February, the president upon resuming his place at
the conference table accepted some of those sugges-
tons, and they are Incorporated in the treaty the
senate is now considering.
These senators believe the president will yield
further. They want him to do so. They are not
opponents of the idea of a league of nations. They
are willing to try an experiment having for its object
the establishment and preservation of peace for all
the world, though some of them have their misSiv-
ings about the plan that has been devised. What they
have in mind in the reservations they are offering is
the safeguarding of American interests, and the COM
plete preservation of American independence.
The whole question is debatable, and debate is in
progress. Let us have it out. Let both sides be heard
with all respect and attention. The country wants a
debate marked by information and reflection and
patriotic feeling, and a decision which will decide.
The terms upon which we join the league should be
definite past all question.
1t will be well to remember, as a reply to any urge
for haste, that the unrest in Europe and the continued
fighting here and there do not grow out of the dispute
i'm the senate about Americas attitude toward the
worlds new order, and would not case if the senate
were to ratify the peace treaty tomorrow. So that the
senate need not hurry with business so important that
q false or hasty step might work incalculable harm to
the country and its institutions.

THE RACE RIOTING

The race riots are among the most deplorable of all
american manifestations of these later days. The black men
have learned a few things out of the war themselves and they
are not going to play absolutely as they are told to do. In
Chicago it seems to be a trouble that has arisen out of con
flicts in residential districts. The cOlOred folks are moving
into white districts and the whites resent it. The north is
tasting some of the things that the south has had to contend
with. But the north ought to have sense enough to solve the
problems most wisely. MObs and riots and brickbats and
guns will not solve anything and the sooner this is realized on
both sidesl the better it will be. We shall some day have a bit
more wisdom than we have had shown to us in the recent
happenings in Washington and Chicago.

THE BIGGEST PRESENT ISSUE

The cost of living question is fast becoming the center of
our political life. The politicians do not care for it, because
they dislike hot pOkers. No one knows the answer. More than
that. no one even thinks he has found the answer. A glory
greater than that of Foch or Haig or Pershing is prepared for
the man who can tell us how to scale prices down without
causing a wreck.
The new issue was not manufactured by some small band
OF politicians. 1t has come directly out of the daily experience
of the people. By insisting that those who sit in authority
bestir themselves to find a solution, the common people are
putting an end to the red herring in politics. They are not
going TO be turned aside by political make-believe from the
greatest issue, which is: How shall men obtain what they must
have to live?

It is well to bear in mind that if the Monroe doctrine is
entirely safeguarded and we retain full control of immigration,
the league of nations will stilh be left. 1t does not depend for
lis functioning on denying those rights to Americans. 1t is
not the league that is in danger, but it is our own institutions.

The London correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger
which is a paper friendly to the league-says that over there
people one meets do not take the league of nations idea
with any degree of seriousness" They smile, they laugh and
they seem to think that that was something that had to be
given to President Wilson to play with or to bullyrag the
senate with.

If the government will succeed no better i'm supervising the
business of the packers than they have the business of the
railroads, then God have mercy on the consumers of meats.
We have not the least doubt that the government could ball up
that business as thoroughly as they have the railroad business.
After one has such ocular demonstration, why try more expert
ments?

We like the league for the preservation of American indie
ppndence quite as well as the league to enforce peace. We
probably have room for both leagues, but we should be care
full to see to it that the latter does not interfere with the
former. American independence is to be held in esteem
above all else.

PULLMAN HE|FER
SETS BEEF RECORD
TwO-Year-Old Prize Winner Dresses
Seventy-One Per Cent
Butchered BY Carl
Mordhurst

That quality of stock and right
feeding methods mean dollars and
cents to the farmer who raises beef
stock is proven by the establi shn.ent
here OF what is thought 20 be a
worlds record in dressed weight CT
beef compared to live weight. Roam
Princess, two-year old heifer from
the State College farm, was butch.
cred by Carl Mordhorst, manager
of the College Market The animal
had been purchased a year ago by
the college for $1225, and led her
class in the prize ring at the various
stock shows. She proved barren,
however, and was sold for beef.
Alive, Roam Princess tipped tho
scales at 1926 pounds. After being
dressed and hanging for three days
and four nights, the carcass reg
istered weight of $50 pounds. A
fair average, according to Mr.. Mord-
horst, is SO per cent, with so per
cent considered exceptional.
The beef was shipped to the
Carstens Co. at Spokane for sale and
will be on exhibition at the Riverside
market, where it will be sold. In a
letter to Mr. Mordhorst acknowledge
ing receipt of the beef, Thos. N.
Conway, manager of the Carstens
Co., said:
THE writer was very agreeably
surprised at the quality of the heifer.
1t is the finest piece of beef ever
slaughtered west of the Rocky noun
tains and l want to congratulate you
on the way it was dressed. 1t GER
tainly was well done and the beef
arrived in very attractive condition"

Lively Debate at Chamber of Com.
merce Luncheon Brings Out Much
Valuable Information and a
Wide Divergence of
Opinions

10 reduce or not to reduce the
size of the big ranches of Whitman
county was the subject of a lively
| debate before the chamber of COM
merce luncheon Tuesday. Editors
Brown and Walters of Colfax, Schick
of Palouse, Coe of Oakes6ale and
Lynch of Rosalia were present, as
we'll as delegations from the COM
mercial organizations of Colfax and
| Palouse.
j. N. Emerson started the ball
rolling by outlining the purpose OF
| the meeting as being to discuss
methods of putting Whitman county
in first place among the counties of
the United States in agricultural
production and advocated the plan
of having a family on every $50
acres, as the best and surest method
OF bringing about the desired result.
Prof. George Severance said that
the two principal lines of opposition
to the smaller farm plan came from
those who think that it will dis
courage wheat growing, and that it
proposes to fix the size of a mans
land holdings. He denied that
either of these objections apply.
This is primarily a wheat country
and the object of smaller farms is
not to do away with the growing of
wheat but to maintain the fertility
of the soil and to prevent it's lying
idle every other year. The size of
the farm should be determined by
the needs and capabilities of each
family. The idea is not to bring
about intensive farming but to pro-
mote we'll connected plan of grow,
ing enough peas, clover and perhaps
corn to increase the number of live
stock on each farm, and to main
tain the productivity of the land He
gave the record of crops produced
on one field of the college farm dur
ing number of years, showing that
the yield of wheat had been in
creased by cropping the land to clo-
yer and peas.
]. l.. Dumas said that the average
man puts his own interests above the
interests of the community. If a
man can make more by farming
larger instead of smaller tracts, he
is going to do it. The determining
factor is going to be the profits re-

THE FAMILY SIZED FARM
VS.. THE BIG WHEAT RANCH

ed that smaller farms can be made
to pay better than larger ones, the
small farms will come. Good roads
and good consolidated country
schools are prerequisites of smaller
farms.
County Agent Kennard stated that
he came to listen and not to discuss
the question.
H. H. Curtis said that 32O-acre
farm, properly equipped, means an
investment of $4,000. To utilize
labor and bring in a constant income
diversified farming is necessary, but
it requires better buildings and
equipment than for grain raising.
The depreciation of equipment is
more rapid in diversified farming
and the cost of farming decreases as
the amount of land farmed increases.
He had tried rotation of crops In a
small way and had found that the
growing of legumes is beneficial and
increases the productivity of the
land. He gave some interesting rec
ords to prove this point.
j. d. Carson said that we are COM
ing to the time when we must raise
more legumes, and this means that
more live stock must be kept to con-
sumo the legumes. The men who are
buying more land are making a good
investment, but as the land becomes
more valuable it will have to be di-
vided into family farms to get the
best returns.
r. f. Bigelow, president of the
Colfax Commercial club, said that he
was convinced that a cooperative eff
fort is absolutely necessary if the
change to smaller farms is to be
made 1t is a question of which pays
best, the large returns per unit of
man power or the large returns per
unit of acre.
Editor Coe of Oakesdale predicted
that Whitman county land will be
higher in value and that smaller
farms will pay better than larger
ones.
Tom Brown, editor of the Colfax
Commoner, said that the essential
thing is to show the owners of large
farms that smaller farms will pay
better.
Editor Lynch of the Rosalia Citi-
zen-Journal predicted that if the peo-
pie of the county make a vigorous
campaign to show the benefits OF
smaller farms, they will come in the
natural order of events.
Asher Hobson argued that large
production of farm products does not
mean prosperity. The kind of farm
ing to be promoted is the kind which
