which might be raised against any
attempt by congress to usurp the

confusion of mind exhibited by some
critics of the peace resolution in the
house was caused by their failure to

WILL JOHNSON HEAD A THIRD
PARTY IF BEATEN?

The attitude of Hiram Johnson, in
the event that he fails to secure the
nomination for president is a ques-
ton that is being much discussed by
republicans. According to a Wash
ington correspondent the supporters
of Johnson have a notion in their
heads that he is the chosen of the
people," and that the rank and file
want Hiram and no one else. One OF
the active leaders among the sup
porters Of the Californian is quoted
as saying that the time is ripe for a
third party and in response to a
question as to whether Johnson
would bolt if he is not given the re-
publican nomination, replied:
You mean if the nomination is
stolen from him." was the char
acteristic reply.
Would johnson deliberately
undertake to wreck the republi-
can party if the republicans
should refuse him the nomina-
tiOn?" was asked.
You know what we did in
1912 and again in 1916. We can
do the same thing in 1920 if
Johnson is robbed of the nomin-
alton"

MANGANESE AND POTASH.
Two Branches Added To Anaconda
OPERATIONS.


Another profitable. although much
smaller, department of Anaconda's
business is the ferro manganese
branch. The price has advanced about
800 a ton of late bringing it back to
the war level of $3.50 a ton, although
this price now rules on so per cent
ferro, whereas during the war it pre-
vailed on 20 per cent material. Scare
ity of ferro- manganese imports has
brought about the full recovery.
Anaconda will soon start to build
a seven mile railroad connection to its
phosphate rock deposit. The cost of
mining will be very small and profits
on the shipment of rock at current
high prices should be substantial
Eventually the company will enter the
fertilizer business, which will entail
large expenditures in the construction
of necessary plants. The demand for
fertilizer from western farmers has
been growing during the past few
years. and this. coupled with require
ments from the far east, should open |
mp promising possibilities for the
gradually expanding product OF the
