A T THE RECENT meeting OF
~ the Idaho Mining associ-
n alton at Boise. Robert N.
Bell, state mine inspector, de-
livered an address on The Early
History Of Mining in Idaho" gave an
interesting and instructive review OF
mining, beginning with the discovery
of gold on Orc Flno creek In 1860. re-
sultng In the first permanent white
settlement within what Is now the
state Of Idaho. Mr.. Bells story fol-
lows the fortunes OF those early-day
prospectors and miners from Pierce
City to Florence, Elk City, Warrens.
Boise Basin, Silver City and Rocky
Bar, placer camps that rivaled In
richness the famous diggings Of CAL
ifornia, and which attracted popula-
tion, which brought about the organ
ization of Idaho territory In 1853. The
widely distributed gold camps led to
widespread prospecting and to the
discovery Of rich silver mines, and
also great deposits of base metals
which could not be profltably worked
In those days. The development OF
these in subsequent years, together
with more intimate knowledge OF
the mineral resources of the state,
form fascinating story and reveal
the tremendous possibilities of min
ing In Idaho.
produeea $500. .o6o 900.
1t Is only within comparatively re-
cent years that mining statistics have
been officially collected and preserv-
ed, hence the total mineral production
of the territory and state Of Idaho
can only be estimated. There Is no
man in the state who Is better quail
fled for making this estimate than Mr..
Bell. His long service as mine In
spector has made 1t necessary for him
to visit every mineral producing sec
ton of the state, bringing him in con-
tact with those sturdy pioneers who
helped make the early history of min
ing in Idaho and who are rapidly dis
appearing across the great divide.
From these and other sources Mr..
Bell has been able to make what ts
believed to be the most reliable esti-
mate Of the production of gold In the
pioneer placer camps and also the
production Of other minerals down to
the time that definite statistics are
available. He places the total min
eral production of Idaho at $S00,000.-
900, divided as follows:

GERMANS REALIZE
 SERIOUS SITUATION
Coblenz Papers Call Attention 10 Penalty of Refusing to
 Sign Treaty.

Coblenz. May 12 (By the Associated Press) The American military au- thorities are permitting a certain amount of comment on the peace terms by the newspa pers in the area of occupation. The Eolks Zeitung of Coblenz after dwelling on the severity of the terms says:
 And yet the dangers of rejecting the terms should not be underes- timated. Our course must be deter mined for us by the proper authori- ties Our situation is no more des- perate than was that of Carthage at the end of the second Punic war. The inha bitants of Carthage were stripped of everything which so far as could be foreseen would be of the slightest value to them in recovering their strength. Nevertheless, the city found means to rebuild it's power"
 Tn the first days after the publica- ton of the peace terms ma jority of the Germans in this region were in terms were utterly impossible. They now have had time for reflection and reports from some officers to army headquarters say many civilians are changing their point of view md taking into consideration what would happen if the Germans refused to accept the Allies terms.

OPEN LETTER TO PUBLIC.
\ Citizen Discusses Case of Two Dis
 missed School Teachers.


 To the Citizens of New Britain:
 Two girls born, brought up in your own city, with the highest moral character; trained in your own Nor mal school, teaching for years in your own public schools in most efficient manner, always with the in terests of your own children upper most in their minds, have been ''dropped" by your own school board without being told as to why they will not be re-engagod. Further your own school board has made the grossest insinuations. According to their statement that the girls would suffer if the charges were made pub lc," the people of New Britain can believe almost anything derogatory to the girls character or competency as teachers. The girls guilt of some thing terrible is great or less only according to the minds of the people. The men on the school board were elected by you presumably because of their fitness to supervise the work of training your children because of their professional and business expe- rience. How do you suppose any one of them would feel if his boss (and they all have boSses) fired him giving no reason whatever. making such direful insinuations that no one would be apt 10 hire him for any other work? Most of these men have daughters of their own, and we can't any of us be too stiff. Would any parent in this city like to see his own girl so dismissed and branded throughout the city?
 The parents Of the children attend ing the Elhu Burlitt school, where these girls teach, have come nobly 10 the girls support. But, when they asked for the use of the school audi torium for a meeting, the school com mittec sat on them good and hard thereby undOing to q onsiderablo de- gree the work accomplished by the Parents and Teachers association by their efforts to bring the parent and tho school administration closer together.
 The girls have requested the school board to make the charges public It's now up to the board to square themselves. If they don't, what are you, as citizen of Now Britain going to do about it?
