authorities and corporations in all
parts of the country are endeavoring
to find means of taking care Of as
much as possible of the surplus labor
so that distress may be avoided to as
great an extent as possible. Copper
mines have been kept running, al
though there is no present market for
copper. Plants in other lines have
continued in operation, although they
can not Immediately sell their pro-
duct. The large surplus of labor in
the country is caused by the shutting
down of vast munition plants for
whose product there is no demand in
time of peace and by the return of
the soldiers.
With so much unemployed labor in
the country the voluntary addition OF
$4,000 men to the ranks of the unem-
ployed through their own action is
not good policy on their part. They
will be the chief sufferers. There is
at present no warrant~for a further
increase in wages and the tendency
from now on will inevitably be down
ward.

Secretary Baker recently reported
that complete lists Of casualties had
been sent to Washington, and that
1000 clerks were busy in getting
them out The daily casualty list at
the time contained about 500 names
which shows that two clerks, by ap-
plying themselves attentively to their
duties managed to get out together
one name each day. But Mr.. Baker
announced that 1000 more clerks
would be added to the force with
view to speeding up the final casualty
reports. With 1000 employees bending
their energies to that end the public
may reasonably expect daily list OF
1000 names until the entire number
are printed Some efficiency!

oBEYlNG ORDERS.

Just simply obeying orders
Is often as hard as executing big
job,
But the youth who does not acquire
Amenability to discipline
Is not likely ever to be called upon
TO do the big work of the world
If you mop floor well
When ordered to mop a floor
And don't consider yourself out
ragged in doing it.
You may some day stand among
kings
And queens and aces and jacks
And the rest of the high cards IN
life's pack;
But If your sensitive soul rebels
At trivial things and tries to float
Amid the spheres
Before you have sprouted sphere
floating wings,
At sixty you are likely to be occu-
plying
Your country home
With all expenses taken care Oh
BY the county.
And nothing to do except at meal-
times
When you march into the dih'hh
room
With the other inmates.

ROUTE TO PARNASSUS.
New York Herald)


There is no royal road to the
heights of Parnassus. Those who
would ascend must follow narrow,
stony trail, beside which lie here and
there the whitened bones of the many
artists, players and writer's, who,
lacking the stamina necessary for the
climb, have persisted by the way.
There are many, however, who
think they have found smooth and
easy routes, and they follow them in
blind, self confidence, serene in their
belief that they have avoided the
hardships and difficulties of travel.
One of these is the bard who seeks
expression in free verse. thinking to
avoid the drudgery Of rhyme and
meter Insensible alike to the melody
of words and the discord Of false rhy-
ming he divides his prose compost
tons into lines and is quite satisfied
with the result II 1t looks like poetry.
easy route is that followed
by the artist whose lofty genius scars
far above the limitations interposed
by line and color. Disdaining drafts
for the excellent reason that

he has never learned to draw he
daubs his canvas with meaningless
splashes of paint and imagines HIM
self an impressionist. Another easy
route is crowded with novelists who
will not learn the art of story telling,
who write dialogues in
order to escape the hard work or
scene building and essayists who have
nothing to say worth listening to.
There are actors, too, on the trail, and
some Of them compel brief recognition
from the pretentiously ignorant by
means of physical contortions that are
much easier to master than acting.
OF many Of these who pick their
way along the easy trails we hear 1t
said that they get away with It," so
does the burglar with the family
plate. But the end is the same in
every case. The faker passes into OBJ
security; the thief dies in the prison
hospital.

ROOSEVELT'S WIFE.
Baltimore SUM


No greater contrast could be pre-
sented than that between the extraor-
binary publicity which attended al
most every step of Colonel Roosevelts
life for 20 years and the almost COM
plete privacy of Mrs. Roosevelt's life.
If she had been the wife of an OBJ
scure citizen we could scarcely have
heard less about her; she could
scarcely have been more remote from
the public eye. More is printed in
week about women of less prominence
and less real interest than has been
printed about Mrs. Roosevelt in all the
time in which her husband was one
of the great figures of the world
Even in the millions of words written
about the former president in the last
few days Mrs. Roosevelt is conspicu-
Gus principally because of her alb
sence from the spotlight of conven-
tional gossip and comment.
This was not due to Mr.. Roosevelts
overshadowng Importance, to his sell
fish desire to keep her in the back
ground, nor to her lack of positive and
attractive qualities. She is said to be
acter of great common sense, of de-
cided efficiency in domestic admins
tration, of keen appreciation of cur
rent problems, of profound sympathy
with Mr.. Roosevelt's ambitions and
activities She remained behind the
scenes because she did not care to
play public role, because she thought
her home realm quite as important as
that in which her husband held so
prominent a place And those who
know say that she was a tower of
strength to the strong man at her
side, and a guide, a counselor a
friend whose wise and loving influ-
ence contributed materially to all his
successes.
Colonel Roosevelt needed just this
sort of helpmate-a helpmate of
sweetness and light and strength, a
quiet presiding genius of the house.
hold who understood how to stimu-
late and how to check him. Happy is
the man who has a wife of this kind.
She is worth more than wilderness
of noisy suffragettes dlscoursing upon
the rights of woman and the wrongs
perpetrated by man. If Colonel Roose
welt had been married to one of the
latter type he would probably have
been bitter anti suffragist AS it
was he doubtless judged all other wo-
men by his wife, and thought nothing
was too good for them. The respect
full sympathy Of the nation goes out
to her in this hour.

THE LAST DRIVE IN FRANCE
AND AT HOME.

The coming Victory Liberty Loan
will be the last. One more big job
to pay for the victory--or the imme-
diate demands of victory--and Lib
erty Loans will be history. There
must be no tagging by the American
people in the drive that will come in
April 1t will not be a time for cx-
cuses,
The same spirit that characterized
the last hour of fighting before the
armistice went into effect should be
shown by the stay-at- home for whom
the Yanks fought in France. Here is
the official report Of operations in
those last few hours Of the war:
1.-The 3rd division advanced 3
kilometers east of Breheville. De-
spite increased resistance by ma
chine gun and artillery fire the 5th
division continued to advance,
capturing Is prisoners, large
calibre guns, minenwerfers and
considerable material In accord
ance with the terms of the armis-
tce hostilities on the front of the
American armies ceased at 11:00
a. M"
The Yanks didn't shirk that last
JOB. Many gave their lives with
peace matter of minutes away.
Every American at home worth the
victory won by those boys in khaki
will work as hard in the coming loan
as in the first.

STILL KEEPING GENERAL WOOD
IN THE BACKGROUND.

General Leonard Wood has been
sent to Chicago to take command of
the central department. The officer
whom he succeeds is transferred to
Governors Island in charge of the
eastern department. Before the war
and before ii was divided up into the
northeastern, the southeastern and
eastern departments the post at Gov
ernor's Island was the most import
ant assignment of the kind in the
country. While the republicans were
in power that station was considered
OF sufficient consequence to assign

THE sHlPYARD STRIKE.
(Anaconda Standard)

In view of the reports of the large
number of men out Of work in many
industrial centers with little prospect
of a revival of industry for many
weeks, this is not an opportune time
to strike. Thirty-fve thousand men
have left the shipyards at Seattle and
Tacoma because their demands for
higher wages were not granted Their
action. however, is not likely to en-
barrass the builders and may be a re-
lief to them. There is no urgent need
for the completion of the ships now
that the war is over and little will be
lost by the delay except to the men
who have been getting good wages at
this work.

BILL TO CREATE A STATE Blu
REAU OF MINES.

Idaho is to have a state bureau of
mines. At least, bill for that pur
pose has been introduced which has
the endorsement Of the committee on
mines and mining of the house and
it will no doubt pass both houses and
receive the approval of the governor.
1t Is recalled, however that similar
measure was passed two years ago,
but 1t was killed through the veto of
Governor Alexander as part of his
pretentious plan to save a million a
year. That such an institution would
probably be the means of adding
many millions to the wealth of the
state seems never to have occurred to
the bumptious gentleman who is now
happily retired to private life. The
merits of the bill will no doubt ap-
peal to the practical mind of Gov
ernor Davis as one designed to give
substantial encouragement to one of
the great Industries of the state.
The proposed bureau would be UNI
der the control of governing board,
which would serve without pay, re-
ceiving actual expenses while at
tending meetings. This board would
meet on the first Monday of April and
would be made up of the governor, as
ex- ofiicio chairman, dean of the
school of mines and the president of
the Idaho Mining association. The
bill carries an appropriation of $780,
900 to cover the work for two years,
to be utilized as follows For cooper
ative work with the United States bu-
reau of mines, $4,000 for cooperative
work with the United States geologi-
cal survey, $4,000; for geologic and
economic Investigations, $4,000.
To appreciate the value of the
work outlined in this proposed law, it
must be understood that the federal
government provides an equal amount
for the cooperative work mentioned.
The passage of this bill will there
fore mean provision for the support
of the mines experimental station in
connection with the state university
and thus enable 1t to cover a wider
field. 1t will make possible thorough
investigations and the publication of
detailed reports on various mining
districts an exhaustive geological
survey Of the state and in various
ways give substantial encouragement
to the development of the mining re-
sources. Idaho is essentially min
ing state, and 1t is hoped that no OBJ
stacle will be placed in the way of the
passage of this measure, for whatever
benefits the mining industry is also
beneficial to every other industry.

required as an evidence Of good faith
of their claim to government land.
1t is officially announced that next
April there will be another bond drive
when the people will be expected to
subscribe for not less than $4,000
100000 The people Of the mining
districts have responded Loyalty and
literally to every call Of the govern
ment for funds and they will not fail
in the coming drive. At the same
time they feel that this is an addi-
tional reason for relief from assess
ment work which congress should
properly take into consideration. The
senate has already passed resolu-
ton suspending assessment work on
mining claims until the end Of the
year following that in which peace is
concluded, which means until Deem
Der 81, 1920. 1t is now up to the MN
ing interests to bring pressure upon
the house to pass it, and 1t should by
all means be done before the ad-
journment of the present session,
which will be March 4. There is no
certainty that the new congress will
be called in special session on that
date, so If the resolution Is not passed
by the present congress 1t may not
be possible to get action until the
regular session in December, which
will be too late to be of benefit. Ac-
tion should be urged by mining asso-
Citations in every western state, also
by commercial bodies and by penson
al appeal to members of congress.

when the strained relations between
the American army occupying Manila
and the army of Aguinaldo, en-
trenched about the city, reached the
limit of endurance and the clash OF
arms followed. Idaho was represent
ed In that memorable battle that en-
circled the city by the First Idaho
Volunteer infantry, consisting OF two
battalions aggregating about 800 men.
The firing started about 8 or o'clock
on the evening of February 4. and
throughout the night there was heavy
and continuous firing. both infantry
and artillery all along the line, the
purpose of the Americans being to
hold the insurgents back until day
light and then go after them. The
Idaho boys were held in reserve all
night short distance back from the
firing line, and shortly after daylight
on the morning of the 5th they were
hurried to a section of the line in
front of Santa Ana, one of the strong
est positions held by the insurgents.
The charge Of the Idaho regiment and
capture of Santa Ana was one Of the
most important achievements on that
long battle line forming a semi-circle
about the city Of Manila, and the
news of the American victory was
hailed with a patriotic outburst Of
enthusiasm at home unequalled until
the nation was thrilled by the greater
achievements of American soldiers in
France The record Of the First Ida
no volunteer regiment has been re-
peatedly told in story and song, and
until the sons of Idaho won new hon
ors in the great war just closed, 1t

Santa Ana that Major Edward Me-
Conville, a superb soldier and the
best beloved man in the Idaho regi-
ment fell leading his men.
