JEROME VERDE IS
 IN MAINTOP ORE BODY
(From Fridays Daiiy.l

Word was received this morning from the Jerome Verde that the Maintop ore body has been cut on the 950 level and that the quality 5of the ore is at least as good as that taken from above the 900, says the Verde Copper News"
 Those who have kept track of op- erations at the mine will recall tbat the Maintop territory was entered on the HOO level and that raise was made to the 900 from which raise crosscut opened the ore body from which most of the shipments to date have been made. The ore has been stopped out above the 900 and Superintendent Harris ran second crosscut from the 950 which is now in the ore, giving an additional So feet of stoping ground.
 The ore just opened is little softer than that above and is of the same general character, chalcocitc and pyrite, with perhaps little more pyrite than is carried in the ore now being shipped.
 The exact size of the ore body has not yet been determined as the foot wall has not been reached. Superin- tendent Harper says that while the cutting of the ore on the 950 is nat urally pleasing and assures the con tinuation of shipments for some time to come, there is nothing sen sational aboutit and no cause for un- due elation

 tion can be successfully disputed. l therefore believe that on the record shown the nation should base its fu- ture dealings with the late entente allies. By doing this strictly but justly more respect will come to the United States than by any over-gen- erous treatment. It is quite possible that France and England have today as much respect for Japan and Italy, who each eXacted the pound of flesh" as they have for the United States, that waived all right to com pensation for the very effective serv- ice rendered.
 America will no doubt do her full share towards European reconstruc- ton but she will not do it to meet an unfulhlled war obligation which does not exist except more or less in the minds of all the allies. Of this it will be well for the allies to take notice. It may prevent future com phcations and disappointments.

TEACH ANIMAL
 INDUSTRY TO SOLDIERS
(Fram Fridays DaIly1

Among the many educational fea-
 lures which have been brought into the army, possibly the most unique
 is the School of Animal Industry. which has been opened at Camp
 Funston, Kansas, where the Seventh Division is stationed.
 Colonel William A. Shunk, in charge of recruiting in the Los An geles district, states that his school has been opened for the purpose of giving enlisted men an opportunity to learn the care and handling of all kinds of livestock such as IS kept on the average American farm. Thor oughbred cows, horses, sheep, hogs and poultry are kept at the school and civilian teachers are employed to give instruction on their care. Lee lures are given in the science of feeding, raising, breeding and butch ering and every detail of the work is carefully covered during the course. While the School of Animal Indus try is not a part of a military edu- cation it is included in the war de- partment educational program with the idea of giving young men who have come into the service from farming sections of the country an to become expert in breeding and stock raising, so they can return to their homes with a more perfect knowledge of their work. The course also includes a system of bookkeeping that is ad- aptable to the needs of a farm so a man can take care of his finances as well as his hogs. The young man who has been raised in the country and wants to become a scientific, ed ucated farmer and an expert in the breeding of livestock can realize his ambition by enlisting in the army and attending this school for one year. Recruits are now being ac- cepted in the Field Artillery and En- gineers for one or three years, re- 5ardless of former military service, and a brigade of Field Artillery is stationed at Camp Funston, where he School of'Animal Industry is To- ,ated

SILVER PEOPLE OF
 COLORADO IN YAVAPAI
(From Fridays Daily)

The Colzona Mines company" is the name given a new movement in silver-gold mining that is being shaped up by Aspen, Colorado;; op- orators, situated in Pike's Peak dis trict, the five locations being in the extreme southeastern corner of this county and due south of the Tiptop camp.
 From Ellis Peabody, a principal, now ill the city, it was learned yes terday that incorporation of a close company will follow in short time, and that operations will begin later this month on what is to be known as the Centennial claim, which as d prospect carries a good silver con tent in a five foot vein.
 Mir. Peabody and associates nearly one year purchased two claims, and since have located three more. The survey has been made, and the south end comes within 545 yards of the Maricopa county line. The shipping ill point is to be Turkey station on the Bradshaw railroad, but the outlet will be via Glendale by motor truck.
 Mir. Peabody is elated over silver coming back and said: Every prop erty in the west of this mineral char acter will be active, if conditions jus tify, and as my section of Yavapai has a good name, candidly antic- ipatc a general awkcning this spring and summer of every locality carry ing this mineral" .z

WINGFIELD AND LEWIS ARE ACCUSED OF DELAYING THE
 HIGHWAY BOARDS REPORT
ORATORY MARKS IRISH MEETING
 FOR LIBERTY
(From Fridays D&ily.)

Ringing speeches, good music and loyalty to the old. sod marked the mass meeting last night of sympa- thizers with the struggles for Irish independence, at which a report was made of the progress of the Yavapai council of the American commission for Irish independence. Mote than three hundred attended the session in the Odd Fellows hall. - County Chairman Robert Emmet Morrison called the meeting to order, following an entertaining musical number provided by four talented young ladies from St. Joseph's acad- emy. He outlined the manner,) in which it was being attempted tQ.se- cure financial support for the Irish republic, by means of organizations existing under the laws of the United States.
 Judge Sweeney, who was to have rendered his accounts on the organi- zation of the county council, was unable to be present, and the report was given by Recorder E. A. Me Swiggin.
 Captain John L. Sullivan and Roger O'Malley of Jerome, presi- dent and secretary of the council in that district, were present and each gave able addresses on topics of gen eral interest. Sullivan, who, when not otherwise engaged, hammered h--- out of Heinie from one end of the battlefield to the other, spoke on "thc Irish in the World War" and managed to convey the impress sion that there were uncounted hordes of Sullivans in, the scrap.
 O'Malley spoke on the subject of the Irish Republic"
 One of the features of the evening was the mastcrly address of P. w.. O'Sullivan of this city, whose flow of oratory is in no wise obstructed by his racial antecedents, and who is always a star member of any pro- gram.
 Entertainment numbers included al vocal solo by Gary Vyne and an ap-I propriate reading by Mrs. Fay Siuthworth.

(Part Two)

If indisputablc details may be nee essary to support the general claims made in Part One of this review of Americas part in the war, they are available For instance, regarding the allies situation on the western front in May, 1918, as described therein, the records of the war show that at that time the United States had been in the war more than one year, had already loaned the allies several billion dollars, had more than half million men in Europe who had done good military service, had given very valuable naval serv- ice ill meeting the submarine danger had furnished the allies large quan- titles of munitions, food, clothing and had aided effectively in many other ways.
 If we deduct the effect of all this assistance from the actual situation On the western front at that time, we will have the exact condition the allies would have been in had they been without the active assistance of the United States, and it does not require the knowledge of a military expert to tell that it would have Leen very much worse than it actu- ally was.
 On the other hand, the Teutonic nations were never during the war in better condition on the western and near-wcstern fronts than they were at that time. In addition to their former forces and equipment, which for nearly four years held the fronts against all the allies could do, they had most of the troops and war material they had used on the east ern fronts. And they had as addi- tional sources of food and other sup plies all the eastern countries they had conquered. How then was it possible for the allies in this inferior situation, to do what for four years they had strivcn to do and failed un- der much more favorable circum- stances?
 From all of these facts which are absolutely indisputable there was not possible chance that the allies alone could have escaped what the Germans finally sought and worked ior-a peace settlement that would have been but very little better than actual defeat for the allies. And this includes Italy that is today ready to fly at the throat of the nation that made possible the better condition she enjoys.
 In the fall of 1917 after stock was taken by experts of the worlds supply of foodstufis that could by any possible neans reach the allies, shortage was discovered, estimated to equal two months consumption

 C.. V. Hopkins, chief engineer of the mining and field department of the United Verde Copper company, now in the city closing up few bus mess matters, announces that he has resigned his office and with his wife and family is preparing to leave for Los Angeles, their future home. His resignation becomes effective April l, and in the meantime he will be busily engaged in certain duties.
 MT. Hopkins will enter private practice as a consulting engineer and will operate out of Los Angeles, hay ing gained wide knowledge of his line, and also a favorable name in his profession. During his l6 years in the important position with the copper company, Mir. Hopkins has made many fast friends, all of whom will regret that the mining com1nuni- ties of this county are to lose him as a citizen of Arizona. Personally he is popular, and in leaving for his new field he is followed by the best wishes of all Mrs. Hopkins has be- come endeared in this and other sec tions of Arizona, through her gen erous nature and estinlable character.

 SUCCUMBS TO PNEUMONIA
(From Thursdays DaiIy.)

Writing from Trinidad, Bermuda Islands, Mrs. Bertha Dinton anuoun- ces the death of her husband Ed ward Carol Dintin. on February Is. from pneumonia, which followed two attacks of influenza. His first illness was light, and week after recover ing he was stricken again, surviving for only four days.

It was the purpose of the entire company of eight investors to come to Prescott about the middle of March to ratify the deal and begin operating.
 Mir. Dintou was in this section last October, coming from Ottawa, Cam ada, and was quite well known as successful mining promoter He and his associates are said to be heavy stockholders in the Miami Consol- dated, and of coppers in the Morenci fieldA It is reported the deceased had placed a gold copper property in the Senator region, but the name of the group was not mentioned

AMERICAS PART IN THE WAR
 REVIEWED
Editor Journal-Miner

Editor yournal-Mlner:
 The following is an extract from a speech at Sydney, Australia, by Sir Joseph Cook, minister of the Austra- lian navy, a portion of which was published in the "Journal-Miner" of February 2:
 "Australia's sacrifices in the war 60,OOO dead-were greater than Amer ica's, and all died in an effort to make America safe. America was for three or four years out of the war while Australia was helping to keep her free"
 Evidently Sir Joseph is not very much impressed with the importance of Americas part in the world war. He rather tries to impress himself and others with the idea that Aus tralia's sacrifices were made mostly in an effort to make America safe" and ill keeping her free" which she does not seem to appreciate But Sir Joseph is not alone in this state of mind. Most of the allied statesmen seem to think that their greatest work in the war was in saving Amer ica, and now they are trying hard to collect for doing it.

to the status of a great naval and military power, and its remarkable achievements on foreign soil 5000 miles from home, is an index of what it could have done against any in vading nation no matter how power full In the light of these facts, it is now a safe assumption that the na- ton could have remained out of the war with much material benefit to itself, in lives and wealth saved, and probably would have done so if ami mated by the strictly selfish and practical spirit that had animated some of the nations that went to war on the side of the entente na- tions But had it done so, what the world would have suffered by 1t is fearful to contemplate. And Ameri- cas- reward, and it is sufficient, is saved world.
 But few issues left from the war are more important to the United States than intelligent recognition by the world, and particularly by the allies, of the large, generous and un- selfish part the nation played in the war. This part, according to actual practical necessity for going into the war, was very much greater than that of any one of the allied nations. The excess is therefore a positive obligation in favor of the United States.
 This obligation, with the large fin ancial and economic demands the al lies are making, should furnish the basis for reasonable counter demands by the United States. It is only just and legitimate that the American government, from every material ia vor granted the allied and even the neutral nations, should exact positive economic and trade concessions that would prove mutually beneficial. Other nations are today practically loaning American money to smaller and less independent nations and are exacting important trade concessions for the favors.
 For the same considerations the government should exact positive as surances of moral and practical sup port in international matters where Americas interests and wishes are involved. This would correct the un- equal voting situation in the League of Nations better than anything that can be done, and it is absolutely prac- tical Common sense, wise states manship, intelligent diplomacy and absence of partisan politics are all that is necessary on the part of the United States. And one of the strong cards to play in the game will be the importance of Americas $ part in the world war
