0. B. Willmarth Visits
in Idaho Springs

o. B. Willmarth, formerly of
this city, but now of Montrose,
Colorado, spent Tuesday here
shaking bands with old friends and
looking after mining conditions.
Mr.. Willmarth was manager of the
Prize mine, which was in operation
here about five years ago. 1t is
located in the Argo tunnel about
four miles. and is a good producer.
Mr.. Willmarth left here in 1914,
and has since been connected with
the radium ore mines at Montrose.
He says the mining outlook is the
best that it has been since before
1914, and prospects are better than
since the demonetization of silver.
He left Tuesday afternoon for
Central City to look after some
property, and from there will 60

work on the Prize mine.

BURGLAR TRIES TO
HIll- CRIME BY
STARTING FIRE
Sale of Automobile and Hiding
of Money Between Feather
Bed and Mattress Undoubt-
edly Known to Thief; Loss
from Fire Is About $500.

The fire siren blew about $50

Of getting lots of people out on
the streets aud started towards the
direction of the fire, which proved
to be the Colonial hstsl, just re-
Gently moved into by Mrs. Bessie
Tweed.
Mrs. Tweed had one room on
the lower floor filled with furni-
ture, beds, mattresses. pillows, and
all kinds of bedding. and it was in
this room that the fire originated.
On examination it was found that
the fire started near the window,
aud the fact that Mrs. Tweed had
just hidden about $3.50 in currency
from the sale Of her car that day
between the mattress and feather
bsd in the store room, leaves no
doubt in her mind that she was
seen placing the money there and
that the persen got the money,
afterwards setting fire to the store
room to cover up his tracks, trying
: to make it appear that the money
waa burned with the bedding. But
? the bedding was not entirely con-
: sumed, and it was easy to see that
the money had been removed.
Mrs. Tweed says that the furni-
ture and bedding could not be
replaced for less than $500, and
there was only very small insur-
ance carried
/ She had just sold her car and
put the money in the store room
to keep it safely till the next
morning, when she intended to take
it to the bank There were no
blinds up to the windows, as she
had just moved in, and she was no
doubt seen when hiding (?) the
money. She was at the show when
the fire started.

STIMULATE THE
PRODUCTION OF
GOLD and SILVER
Criticism of Pittman Act I'm
fair; Lack of Information On
Subject; None of the Money
Paid for Silver Comes from
Taxpayers; 1t Is Merely the
ReInvestment of U. S. Funds.

If there was evera a lime ia world
his ory when we should do every
thing to stimulate production OF
both gold and silver il is Now.
Owing to the world war there
has been numerous initiation of
paper money, cost of material and
wages, and as result production
OF 90 d and silver is declining.
Under the Putnam act the mint
in purchasing silver produced from
mines within the Unued States al
$1.00 an ounce while other silver
is offered in the world market for
much lower price. Many citizens
think that the difference comes out
of he pocket of the taxpayers and
the government is unfairly sustain
ing the silver mining business
while other Industries have to
struggle along without any govern-
ment support or subsidy. This
results in hostile criticism and a
demand for the repeal of the Pitt
man act.
This criticism is unfair, aud
arises from lack of information
on the subject. During the war
the United States government sold
the British government $50, 900 GOO
ounces of silver al $l0O an ounce.
The silver market during this time
was much stronger than ST. 90, in
fact it went higher than 81 30, and
had the British government bought
this silver in The open market the
silver miners in this country would
have received tar 10 excess of 81 90
an ounce. Under the Pittman act
the director of the mint is euipow-
cred to replace these 35O,nOO,OOO
ounces Of silver at exactly he
same price the government received
for it, namely $1OO an ounce less a
fraction of cost for mintage ano
handling charges. This transac
tion is thus without cost of cent
to the taxpayers of the country; il
would be gross injustice if the
the silver miners were deprived of
the higher prices during the war
by the government selling silver be-
low the market 10 our allies and
then in turn replacing silver al the
present deprecated price. This
mistaken view of the Pitiman act
is almost universal with the pull bic,
even among the best informed.
None of the money paid for silver
comes from the taxpayers: it is
merely the reinvestmeut without /
loss to the government, of money
received for silver during the W.

Idaho Springs Secures a Branch
of the Big School of Mines;
Town to Be Greatly Benefited
by the Establishment of this
Institution; the Construction
Work to Begin Very Soon.


DR.. Victor G. Anderson, president
of the Colorado School of Mines,
and Dean L. S. Grant were in
Idaho Springs Thursday, and in
conjunction with DR.. James I'm
derhill, made the first move toward
the establishment Of the work
proposed to be done here during
the summer.
Arrangements have been made
for the buildings in Dry Gulch at
the mouth of Miami tunnel to be
used in the work of the students.
1t is understood that warrant for
a considerable portion of the ap-
preparation recently made by the
legislature has been placed at the
disposal of the school for the work
that is to be begun in very few
days.
To representative of the Sift
ings-News Thursday Dr. Anderson
said that the first building to be
erected. would be 25x6O and would
contain an Office, work room, draft
room, brick vault, and shower bath
and toilet. The vault is very es-
sentiaI, as the surveying iostru-s
ments ara very valuable and must
be protected from loss by fire.
Later there are to be additions
constructed for more room for the
drafting and working facilities.
Also near the portal of the
Miami tunnel, which is being used
by the school for practical work,
there will be shop for repairing
and sharpening the tools to be
used by tue students. The Miami
tunnel has been leased, and is
something which the school has
needed for many years.
The Idaho Springs branch of the
School of Mines will be known as
the School of Mines Summer
Camp, yet it will be used the year
round. 1t is expected that students
will come from more than forty
mines schools over the United
States and many from the foreign,
especially from the South American
schools and mining camps.
The publicity tnat will be derived
from the location of this branch OF
the Colorado School of Mines will
be of great value in advertising
Idaho Springs, as the school will
give this branch world will pub
licity.
It is thru the efforts of DR.. Un-
derhill and City Attorney J. W. B,
Smith that the school has been
able to show the Importance OF the
extension of its work by locating
this branch at this place.
1t is not the intention of the
school authorities to establish a
boarding house or dormitory in
Idaho Springs, but rather to let
the town supply this need, which
means much to our business peo-
Pile, especially to the hotels and
boarding houses.

INCREASE Of WATER
IS CALLED URGENT
Civic Bodies Place Need
Above Demand for Electric
Power Development.

The Board of Trade and the City
Club of Washington will urge before
the federal power commission tomor-
row that provision for an increased
water supply for the capital be con-
sidered in advance of the Great Falls
power development project.
Francis r. Weller. chairman of the
water supply committee of the Board
of Trade and of the public utilities
group of the City Club, today said
both organizations had decided the
problem of insurfng the city against
a water shortage was of more I'M
portance than of developing electric
power. He will present their views
at the hearing.
This is the conclusion reached by
Mai. Tyler in his Great Falls report,
which is to be considered at tomor-
rows hearing by the commission, and
with which the District Comm ISIS ion
ers indicated they agree.
Civic Interests IL Unit.
It appeared practically certain today
that Washington civic and business
interests would be a unit at the hear
ing in urging immediate action on the
water supply phase Of the Tyler re-
port. This in no way viii jeopardlle
the merits of the power project, ii is
explained. II is felt that there is no
economy TO DC derived IRON tbHl UlIl-
ing the two proposed developments,
and that as one is of an emergency
character it should be treated accord
ingly.
The hearing. which viii be con-
vened by Secretary of War Baker at
10 O'Clock tomorrow morning in the
Interior Department building. viii De
open to the public and is expected to
attract a large and representative
attendance.
Representatives of local trade and
other organizations today expressed
much qualification over the action OF
Representative Zihlman in intro
ducinS 4 joint resolution in Congress
to require the federal government TO
pay for the water it uses in the Dis
trict.
Also an "EmerEent" Measure.
This bill also should be considered
as an emergency measure. it is con-
tended because it will tend to pro-
mote economies in water consumption
that should amount to saving of
several million gallons daily. Not
only this. but Congress should end
the present inequitable situa ton. 1t is
urged whereby District private con-
sumerS of water. using only about
half of the supply. pay for the entire
upkeep of the Waterworks system,
the United States consuming the bal
ance of the supply. paying nothing.
