Importance to all Of the mining states and particularly
to Nevada. 1t is amendment to recently adopted
resolution suspending annual work claims the

very unsatisfactory measure, Ill that It would give rise
to innumerabe lawsuits some OF which would prove
costly and all would have tendency retard the min

The Magnet held and still holds that it mistake
to suspend the annual work RECRUITMENT. The average
claim holder does $500 worth OF work upon his claim,
He usually sights about sixty to seventyve per cent
he breaks enough ground at that to often make all

annual work being for his benefit largely than
for the general public He honor and self interest

by resolution, for it is only through this work that he can
make mine of it.
During war time the RECRUITMENT was suspended although
it should have applied those only in service of the
United States, either under engaged in the
ployment necessary for the carrying of war All
others could have kept up their work and thus have
brought prospects into the producing class for it is only
through this method that the mining industry be per

mines be succeeded by in order that the supply
of useful and noble metals may continued and there is
great need for those at present particularly the metal used

GIRL SCOUT WEEK

The National Headquarters of the
Girl Scout organization has set
time for campaign for the purpose
of enlisting public support in that
movement.
The Girl Scouts throughout the
United States have proven themselves
to be an admirable and efficient body
in doing the many things which
helped the nation in the conduct of
the war, and which have been valu-
able in the way of training future
citizens for the discharge of duties
which will fall upon them.
Consequently Governor Boyle has
designated the week beginning Oct
ober 18th as Girl Scout Drive week,
and urges the people to give their
moral and financial support to the
movement.

Y ASSOCIATION
FILES PROTEST AGAINST
UNJUST DIsCRIMIN ALTON
John R. Shillady Addresses Secretary
of War Baker Concerning tIse
of Hostess House.

New York, Feb. 2l, 1919 The Ma
tional Association for the Advance
ment Of Colored People, through it's
secretary, John K. Shilliday, of New
York, makes public letter to Seere-
tary Of War Newton p. Baker pro-
testing against memorandum issued
by command OF Brlgadier-General
Nicholson on February Ia at Camp
Upton to the commanding officer Of
various colored units now ut that
camp, directing the commanding Off
seera IL saaAssact tissis racas and tisein
families not to use any hostess house
in the camp except the one set aside
for colored soldiers ut Second Avenue
md Thirteenth Street.
The Association entered it's protest
md its request for action by the War
department. for two reasons which it
els forth. First, because the one
konse provided for colored troops is
I,tally inadequate to serve all of the
colored troops nj the camp Mt this
time, particularly IN view Of the fact
that the entire 92d Division is either
ii America or on Its way here, to-
getiIee with other colored units.
Second, The Association declares
that more inopportune time to issue
such IN order could hardly have been
tchosen, in view Of the fact that these
same men who are barred from the
hostess houses of the camp aer those
who have just returned from France
where they fought for democracy.
many of them being wounded and
many Of them having seen their com
rades killed; and that such All order
! Is not only an insult but a repudiation
| of the principle OF democracy fol
which they fought. The Association
isks that Secretary Baker, AS head oi
the War Department, take action i'm
nediately TO correct this mistake. The

Get Big Ovation
Fighting Secretary Is Honored by
Rousing Public Meeting.

Friends Of E. T. Banks, who won
distinction as the fighting secretary
wi,iiis ii,iii ;@sss::..h :.h troops IN France, gave him
a homecoming reception at Masonic
Hall, West Third Street, Tuesday
evening. This hall was filled to ca
pacity, it being estimated that five
hundred people attended, many being
ullible to gain entrance.
When he ran out Of chocolate and
such things to give the boys on the
fighting line, Banks picked mp Ii gun
and went with them after the enemy,
and fought BY the side Of the men in
the 36ath Regiment.
The reception was regarded as the
largest ever held, and the audience
gave him big demonstration when
he entered the hall His address held
the audience for long time as he
told them Of the wonderful work of
the Yankee fighters and what the
people at home must do now.
Before the reception, Browns or
chestra gave d concert,i and several
yoeaa duets were given by Loritts and
Franklin, who responded to several
encores.
Secretary Banks has a. fine collcc-
tion Of war relics which he displayed
and explained at the meeting, the sue
cess of which was due to committee
composed of Zach Wilson, Hazey Lor-
ritts, and Captain ]. Nj. Butler, who
introduced Banks. Many white peo-
pie attended the meeting. Sergeant
Garfield jones, recently returned. was
present ard welcomed home by his
friends.
Although Mr.. Banks spoke one hour
and forty-five minutes, he was un-
able to finish the lecture; thus many
who heard him are planning to heai
him again next Tuesday night at the
Central Y. M G. A. when all citizens
win unite in giving him another rous-
ing reception
