ARMY IN GERMANY.

/ DRESIDENT HARDING has order
ed Secretary of War Weeks to
bring home the soldiers we have
kept on the Rhine river in Germany
since the eud of the World War.
These soldiers are called the
/ American Army Of Occupation"
1T has always been the custom Of
victors in wars to send armies TO
camp on the land of the defeated
country to see to it that the defeat
ed country lived up to its agree
ments.
This custom was followed by
Great Britain, France, Belgium,
Italy and the United States when
they defeated Germany in the
World War.
The American Army of Ocuupa-
ton camped in a region of which
the German city of Coblenz was the
center.
Coblenz is very old city. 1t was
standing in the days when the Ro-
mans fought the Germanic tribes
shortly before and after the birth of
Christ.
Coblenz has a population of about
$4,000. That's six times more peo-
pie than Americas has.
There are about 1000 soldiers in
the American Army of Occupation
All will be brought home before July
], Secretary Of War Weeks believes.
Why are we bringing our soldiers
home? Probably to save money.
Our government expected the AL
lies to pay the expenses from money
collected from Germany, but the AL
lied commission in charge of seeing
that Germany pays its debt to the
Allies does not seem willing.
THE COAL STRIKE.
II NOW seems probable that the
greatest coal strike in the history
Of our country will begin April /.
The United Mine Workers of
America, a miners union, has ord
erd 100000 miners in all parts of
this country and part of Canada to
cease work. These miners are en-
ployed both in hard and soft coal
fields

RATES LOWERED
LOW GRADE ORES

For many months past the Pub
lie Service Commission has been en-
deavoring to secure the co-opera-
ton of the railroads of the state
for the purpose of establishing
lower and more reasonable rates on
ore to smelter locations outside of
the state so that the miners and
producers could afford to ship the
lower grades of ore at a profit. The
first move was a conference ar
ranged by the Commission at which
all the principal railroads operating
in Nevada were represented and
which was attended by many of the
mining men from various points in
the state. This conference was pro-
ductive of much good, and was
followed up by unremitting cores
pondence. with the carriers by the
commission until various adjust
ments were made, first in the Phoebe
district by the Los Angeles & Salt
Lake, and more recently by the
sweeping adjustments made by the
Southern Pacific company whereby
all ore rates from Nevada producing
districts on their lines, both main
and branch, were so reduced to
Utah and California smelters as to

WINCFlELD APPROVES
SMART YEARLINC BAND

A party of well-known San Fran
cisco horsemen made "little
journey" Sunday to Meadowbrook
Stock Farm, near Pleasanton, Cali
fornia, to see some yearlings "step
along" in their final trials prior
to shipment to Tijuana. The babies
created the most favorable impress
sion on the experts. Not only by
the fine speed they showed on the
rather heavy course, but by the
uniform handsome lines and per-
feet department.
George Wingfield, who has sent
scores Of high-class thoroughbreds
to the races from his noted Nevada
Stock Farm, and certainly knows
how promising yearling ought to
look, cheered the breeder nightly
by his critical comments on the
seven youngsters.
Il have seen many yearling out
in the paddock" said Mr.. Wingfeld,
land good ones, too, but l can sin
cerely say none better developed or
showing more painstaking care in
their upbringing, than this band"
All of the yearlings have the i'm
ported horse War Shot as sire.
They are the first crop of the
Christensen stallion and it is on
their showing at the track across
the border that his reputation rests.
If things go along smoothly it
seems certain the colts will do big

make shipments of very low grade
ores profitable.
The commission has not been con-
tent with this adjustment applying
only on the Southern Pacific lines,
but is seeking to effect arrange
ments whereby joint rates on ore
may be established from points on
other railroads which are feeders
to that line. In this connection,
the Southern Pacific has recently
advised the commission that nego-
tiations have just about been con-
cluded with the Nevada Northern
Railway which when consummated,
will give to the Cherry Creek and
Ely districts advantageous rates to
the Utah smelters. This will be of
immense advantage to shippers in
those districts who have heretofore
been hampered in their operations
by the necessity of holding back
all their low grade ores, and making
only infrequent shipments Of high
grade, all because of the prohibi-
tive high freight rates. The pro-
posed adjustments should infuBe

NEW USE FOR THAT OLD
WATER HOSE YOU HAVE

Making spark plug covers from
scrap water hose is one of the ways
by which one of the great railroads
utilizes and salvages old materials.
A large number of spark plugs
are used by the railroad on its
gasoline motor cars in the mainten-
ance of way department. To pre-
vent injury to extra spark plugs,
the idea of making rubber covers
from old water hose was conceived.
The hose is cut into strips of
about 31s inches in length and the
extra plugs are placed in these
holders to prevent injury such as
breakage of porcelains and damage
to threads.
Automobile owners might do well
to adopt Folks ingenious method
of protecting spark plugs.
The railroads save hundred of
thousands Of dollars annually
through salvaging scrap and waste
materials.

After the narrowing experience
of the rail strike the public will give
full endorsement to congress if anti
strike legislation is again taken up
and pushed to final enactment. The
people have had quite enough of
the tyranny of labor leaders in
seeking to impose the will of a
small minority upon the country by
paralyzing the transportation sys-
tenn. 1t is the duty of government
to protect them from such out
RACES, and the government ought to
be clothed with sufficient power for
that purpose. Armed with a
specific prohibition against conspira-
cies to tie up the railroads, the
remedy would be much more direct
and effective in the event of future
emergencies, and the deterrent in
huence on ambitious strike leaders
would be marked.

Silver Strike
A high grade lead and silver
strike reported to be fabulously rich,
has been uncovered by Ben Fowler
at Silver Island, twenty-five miles
northeast of Wendover, according
to information received recently.
The uncovering of the rich ledge
was made during the last ten days,
although Fowler has been working
the property for some time and has
uncovered some fair grades of ore.
Sheriff Joe Harris, who returned
from Wendover recently, said that
he had heard Of the proposition,
and had seen samples from the
newly discovered ledge. The sam
Piles, he said, were fine looking rock,
and apparently carried a large
amount of silver.
No word has yet been received as
to the probable assay value of the
ore. 1t is the opinion of several

say will show from five to eight
hundred dollars per ton.
