"The financial machinery OF the Uni

Mr.. Moehlenpah declared that the

the federal system were recommended

BONUS CAUSES A FURRY

The question OF federal bonus L.
soldiers who entered the army for ser
vice In the world war had agitated
Washington political circles more than
any other question that has haunted
Congress OF late years. On the one
side is arrayed the big financial in
terests who want 10 see the bonus
passed up because they fear its effect
upon the business situation. On the
other side are the four million men
who were called from their occupa-
tions and inducted into service at $50
per month while the financial inter
ests, the slackers and all who stayed
in industry and commerce reaped
greatly augmented earnings because
od the sacrifice these men made.
The men who serve ask that they
now be given portion Of the undue
earnings received by the people who
stayed at home and the latter class dc
not want 10 give II up.
The argument that the business OF
the young man who was called upon
TO leave his work or his business
would suffer by his being inducted in
Quoted into the army wasn't given
much consideration in the days OF the
draft.
We remember one Iron county
young man who had TO step out and
leave so head OF cattle with no one tt
care for them. He had notes In his
local bank against those cattle that
had to cared for but his business was
MT consulted. Why should he consult
the business affairs OF Wall Street
now when IL is proposed to make
some slight amends for the injustice
done him
The soldiers are not lobbying for
bonus, they have simply stated their
case. The lobbying is being done
by those who don't want to pay and
II isn't getting very far with the people
az home. All this talk OF bonds. sales
tax. etc. don't get far. There wasni
any objection when bonds and taxes
were being leveied TO pay for the big

Lurers and jobbers. why all this furore |

Iron County has national reputa-

So IL Is to-day. The few who profit

who is Il that suffers by lawlessness?
The poor man. The rich man needs

NEYADAS ANNIVERSARY

In an editorial of November 1 the

October 81. 1854. the people having
accepted the constitution at a special
election held in July Of that year. al
though they had rejected 1t in Janu-
airy. 1t is interesting to recall the
fact that much of Nevada was onc q
part of Utah territory. which was
formed in 1850, with its western
boundary fixed as the summit of the
Sierra Nevada m~ountains."
Population considered, Nevada has
probably contributed more to the
wealth Of the world than any of the
other States, the Comstock lode alone
yielding, between 1860 and 1890.

While this particular treasure
house, of the State has been virtual
ly depleted. its mineral are
by no means exhausted, for in 1914
Nevada was first Of all the States In
the production of silver and fourth in
gold. Within the last decade 1t has
come into prominence as a producer
Of copper.
Nevada is the most arid of all the
States, S9.5 per cent of its cultivated
land being under irrigation, while
the difficulty and expense of bringing
water in large quantities to vast ar
cas- of it's land retards advancement
in agricultural pursuits. 1t is to-day
the most sparsely settled of any State
in the Union, the census of 1920 CIV
ing the population as 77.407, al COM
pared with S1,S75 in 1910.
Considering its small population.
the State ranks high in the admin
istration Of its school system, a re-
cent compilation showing 327 ele-
mentary schools, twenty-one district
high schools and fourteen county
high schools. There are numerous
district schools where the total en-
rollment is fewer than twelve pupils,
hence the teachers are able to give
each student a specific individual at
tention impossible under the condi-
lions that usually prevail in country
schools, this being unquestionably to
the advantage OF the Nevada pupils.

MoLAssEs TO DRIVE

One Of the big problems Of nj day

progress has been made I'm the con-
verting Of molasses into motor alco-
hol, I'm the Philippine Islands. One
Of the byproducts Of a zane sugar
mill is waste molasses, of which there
is a very large quantity. which would
be an utter loss were it not for the
fact that a process Is being used to
convert this waste material into a
useful and profitable article of COM
merce, writes a contributor to the
Engineering and Mining Journal
Press of New York.
Contrary to many reports the eff
cheney OF the motor alcohol has prov

after a test of 500 continuous hours,
the parts of the engine showed on
examination to be In better condition
than after the same test with gaso-
line. The deposit Of carbon was al
most nil, and the quick response with
alcohol was very much greater than
with gasoline.

BIG PARTY
BORAHS FORECAST

Spokane, Wash, Nov. 4.--Predic-
ton that 1.-The third-party movement
will sweep the country in 1924 I'M
less there is a complete change of
program OF the part of the Republic
can party by the adoption of a liberal
and constructive policy" was made
by United States Senator William e.
Borah of Idaho here to-day. Senator
Borah arrived here en- route to Lew
iston, Idaho, on a speaking tour of
that State.
"a man is totally blind to political
conditions in this country who does
not understand that there is prac-
tically a political revolution" he de-
clared in a newspaper interview.
1.-The people are going to have relief
and If they cannot get it through the
old parties they will get 1t through a
new party. The economic conditions
in this country growing out of.
among other things, Governmental
extravaganza and oppressive taxa
ton, demand a change of program
and policy and IL the Republican par
ty does not give it another party will.
My great hope is that the Republican
party will give it and what little in
iuence l have is being exerted in that
direction"
Senator Borah was asked whether
he expected to be a Presidential can
didate in 1924, either of the Repub-
lican national convention or on a
third party ticket.
"Candidly, I haven't considered
either the question of the presidency
or the question of being a candidate
upon a third party ticket" he re-
piled. II have not supposed for a
moment that the geographical or po-
litical situation necessitated or justi-
fed the consideration Of this matter,
but, aside from any personal outlook.
/ think that unless there Is a COM
plete change of program upon the
part of the Republican party there
will be a formidable third party
movement in 1924"

BETTER MINE TIMBERs

Science Service reports the ois-
covery of a way to seal poison In
wood which promises complete pro-
lection for railroad ties. wharf pill
ing. mining and ship timbers against
the of land and water crea-
lures, like the teredo. DIR. Paul
Bartsch, curator OF mollusks OF the
Smithsonian Institution. has found
that by forcing hot parafin contain
ing copper or arsenic salts into tim
bers under pressure the wood can be
preserved from damage by ship
worms and other destructive forms
of life. The method Of application
is the same as that now used in treat
ing timber with c~reosote. Hereto
fore it has been found hard to keep
p~reservatives in the wood. Gradual
ly the poisons leached out, and left
the timber unprotected. BY the use
of parafin, which is resistant to wa
ter, acids and alkalis, DIR. Bartsch
claims this teaching can be overcome
and the wood protected more effect
lively and with less expense than by
present preservatives.
The Forest Products laboratory re-
ports that the hot parafin solutions
have a great pe%netrative power and
blocks treated by the new method
with iodines Of copper and arsenic
sealed in have been found by officers
at the Key West naval station to be
unaffected by shipworms after three
months exposure in infested waters,
where the untreated wood to which
they were attached was promptly at
tackled.
DIR. Bartsch now has a less-expen-
sive. highly poisonous copper salt and
is working to obtain a cheaper arsen-
ic preparation, which he believes will
eventually displace present timber
preservatives. When the Panama
canal was built, the greenheart wood
was used in the lock gates on account
of its being largely resistant to ma
rine borers. Some difficulty was ex-
perienced in getting men to handle
the wood, as on some 1t has an ef-
feet similar to our poison oak. Re-
Gently 1t has been found that ever
this toxic timber is attacked by the
mollusks, which chisel out their
homes inside it with impunity. They
use the toothlike edges of their
shells.
A colony burrowing through the
wood weakens the timber and often
results In heavy piling being COM
pletely cut in two. Untreated wood
shows the holes which the mollusk
makes In three months and some ere
osoted timber after two years in the
water has been found to be infested
copper solutions of one in 1000 ,00C
have been found deadly, and DR.
Bartsch claims that when the tender
tentacles of marine forms come IL
contact with this preparation the,
will curl up like the victim of a woot
alcohol party. When the shipworn
swallows im~pregnated sawdust hi
boring days will be promptly over
Any number of poisons can probabl,
be effectively kept in the wood By
mixing them in the parafin. So re
sistant is parafin to the effect o.
acids that bottles are made Of 1t to
hold h~ydrofuoric acid, which eats
through glass. Heat alone would
melt it out, but for railroad ties q
parafin too hard to be affected by
the suns heat would be used.
