HARD WORK DOES 1T.

In June 1914, the only country on
earth whose credit was worth 100
cents on the dollar was the United
States of America Its bonds were
the only national securities that could
be sold at par. Today eight years
later, the only country on earth whose
credit is worth 100 cents on the dollar
is the United States of America.
No need 10 look far for the reason
for this. The United States is the
one country whose people have not
devoted themselves to politics to the
exclusion of all other lines of human
endeavor Whatever it has done, it
has avoided sOcialistic experiments.

This country has had its politics, in

PEOPLE WILL GLADLY RETURN
FRENCH TO CONGRESS.

1t is a matter of regret that Hon.
Burton l. French, representative in
congress from the first Idaho district.
could not visit Shoshone county while
at home on a brief vacation. not be-
cause it was necessary for him to
come here to look after his political
fences. but simply because it would
have been pleasure to meet one
who has rendered such long and
faithful service to the state and to
give him assurance that the people
here want to keep him on the job.
From present indications Mr.. French
win have no opposition for renomina-
ton in the republican convention, and
this certainly conforms to republican
sentiment in this county. His long
service in congress has resulted in
giving him high rank on some of the
most important committees of the
house, particularly the committee on
appropriations. and he is in position
low to render even greater service to
his state and country. Congress is
still in session and it is not likely /

EXECUTIVES 5ALK AT RESToR-
ING SENIORITY RIGHTS.

In view of President Hardings fine
sense of fairness displayed on many
occasions in disposing of questions
coming before him, it was astonishing
that his proposal for settlement of the
railroad strike included restoring the
seniority rights of the strikers. 1t is
difficult to reconcile this with his re-
cent statement that every citizen
must be protected in his right to work
and earn a living. for surely this must
mean that he is also entitled to all the
advantages and benefits that accrue to
his employment The men on strike
exercised their unquestioned right to
quit work BY leaving their employ
ment the strikers forfeited the ad-
vantages they held through length of
service. If the companies should
agree to take them back and recog-
nize these rights insofar as they do
not conflict with the rights of men
who took their places that would
show a magnanimous spirit; but to
restore seniority rights regardless of
the effect upon new employees would
be the limit of injustice Evidently
this was the unanimous view of the
railway executives when they reject
ed that provision of the presidents
plan for settlement To adopt the
course proposed would in effect be no.
tice to all men who take employment |
in vacancies caused by strikes that |
they would acquire no rights that |
would hold in the event the strikers
decided to return to work; in other
words, that they were employed mere
Iy as a temporary makeshift and that
they would have to go when the strik-
ers came back. or at least retain their
places subordinate to the rights of
strikers. This would be far from har-
nonizing with the spirit of this ex-
PRESTON of Americanism made by the
PRESIDENT in a recent speech: (

A WORD FOR LEAD.
Engineering and Mining
Journal Press)
Inosphere

Journal Press)
During the recent period of tribula-
ton for the producers of copper and
zinc, the lead mining companies have,
generally-and figuratively-spea
gone ahead saving wood. Fortunate
ly for them no huge surplus of metal
was accumulated during the war to
be disposed of afterward during
period of decreased consumption. One
fundamental difference between the
situation of lead mining and that of
the other metal industries is that, al
though production was accelerated,
the capacity for production was not
increased materially. New low grade
copper mines have been opened. new
treatment plants have been built and
old ones have been improved and en-
larged In the case of zinc the in
creased capacity for production arises
in large measure from the improved
metallurgy that has made available
for exploitation large deposits of zinc
ore that hitherto have been known
but ignored The capacity of zinc
creased. With respect to lead the
emergency of the war was met large

PRINTER STANDS ON GOOSE AND

According to the Kansas City Post
printer down at Fort Worth. Texas
was somewhat peeved over a letter
from doctor who wanted him to sub

heads different sizes, different grades
and different colors proofs of each to

a lower price on future orders. There
upon the printer took his typewriter in

LIQUOR ON SHIPS
WILL BRING FIGHT

Washington, June l5.-Indication
multiplied rapidly today that prohi-
bition proponents in congress would
move through the pending merchant
marine bill to stop the sale of liquor
on American ships.
The first definite step to end the
conditions complained of by Anheus-
er Busch, Inc, of st. Louis, came
through presentation by Representa-
tive Bankhead (Democrat) of Ala
bama to the house merchant marine
committee of an amendment to the
merchant marine bill which would
deny government aid to any Ameri-
can ship on which liquor is stored,
sold or otherwise disposed of. The
committee did not act on the amend
ment at today's session and later Re-
publican committee members, hastily
called together, received another pro-
posal framed by Representative Ed
munds (Republican) of Pennsylvania
and designed as substitute for the
Bankhead amendment.
The Edmunds amendment would
have the effect of putting American
ships on a parity with those of ma
tions which do not have prohibition.
1t would provide fine of $4,000 on
any ship of whatever registry on
which liquor is sold during a voyage
starting or ending at an American
port and after a second offense would
prohibit the entrance of the ship to
American ports. The proposal was
taken under consideration by the ma
jority committee members with the
belief being advanced in some quar-
ters that it ran directly counter to
many of the nations commercial
treaties.
Action during the day was not en-
tirely confined to congress for as yes
terday, executive officials discussed
the matter and it was indicated at
the treasury that Attorney General
Daugherty might be asked soon for
ruling on the legality of liquor sell
ing on American ships. Mr.. Daugh-
erty, when asked about the possibil-
ity of a new ruling or rather a re-
view of the ruling made by the de-
partment of justice during the Will
son administration to the effect that
prohibition follows the flag, said that
although no such request. had been
made II would be acted upon as
speedily as possible If made
