all real Americans must unite for
the protection Of our free institu-
tons"
During the world war alien and
pacfist propaganda against the func-
tions of the government, and even or
ganized attempts to overthrow the
constitution became so menacing that
a systematic campaign was started by
the people of the country to counter
act this reasonable assault upon the
very foundation of our free and repre-
sentative form of government Copies
Of the constitution were printed and
widely distributed, public meetings
were held and the principles enunciated
in the constitution were explained and
expounded. and generally there was
revival of interest and a strengthening
of allegiance to its principles With
peace came a return Of the laxity re
garding the maintenance of our most
cherished rights and privileges which
has ever characterized the American
people, but there was no relaxation on
the part of the enemies of our form
of government. They are ever active,
and their insidious teachings is find
ing opponents in the law making body
of the nation. In this situation it
is well to heed the proclamation of the
governor and refresh our minds re-
garding the principles of free govern
ment laid down in the constitution;
to fortify ourselves against the false
doctrines that might divert us from
the true faith of the fathers, and to
instill into the minds of the youth the
of government which must
be maintained if they are to enjoy the
privileges of a free and representative
government

OIL IN SOUTHERN IDAHO.

Moscow, Idaho Sept H. 1928.
To the Editor of the Miner:
In your issue for August 9Th, which
comes to my attention upon return
from southern Idaho appears the press
summary of DR. Buwalda's report on
the Gas and Oil Possibilities of
Southwestern and South Central Ida
no." issued by the Idaho Bureau of
Mines and Geology. The story is cor
rectly reproduced but the headline
might / fear be misleading to a casual
reader for it says, Gas and Oil Pros
poets are not Good in Idaho"
As an actual matter of fact. as has
been pointed out by Bulletin No. and
other publications of the Bureau, there
is one general area in the state, namely,
the southeast, where the formations
which have produced oil in Wyoming
and Montana are known to be present
and where, therefore, favorable struc-
lures would appear to justify careful
drilling as a purely prospecting vent
ure. Two bureau parties are at work
this summer mapping additional por-
tons of this area.
In view of the fact that as in the
case of the southwest it is sometimes
our duty to issue negative and hence
sometimes unpalatable reports, we are
anxious to be constructive and opti-
mistic Wherever the facts seem to
warrant it.
The Miners standard of accuracy in !
such matters it usually so high that
hope you will pardon my calling atten-
ton to what in a less punctilious pub
LEGATION would pass without comment |
or notice.

UNITED STATES AND THE JAPA-
NEsE DISASTER.

The great cataclysm in Japan has
drawn out a striking exemplification
of the boundless generosity of the
American people. Suspicious have long
existed that Japan harbored designs
to gain possession of the Philippines,
and possibly Hawaii, and to accom-
plsh these ends would home day find
an excuse to make war on the United
States These suspicious coupled with
the aggravated race question in Cali
fornia and other western states have
resulted in developing a bitter preju-
dice against the japanese people. But
in the presence of the appalling dis
aster that has befallen her, racial differ
ences have been forgotten and the one
desire of the American people is to
extend help to Japan as speedily as
possible. Within a few hours after
the news of the disaster was received
ships were being loaded ON the Pa
cific coast with rice and other food and
others with lumber. The president of
the United States called upon the
American Red Cross to raise $4,000, 900, |
equal to about 100000 yen. for the
relief Of the Japanese and this fund |
has been raised and dispatched on its
oenehcent mission. The response of
The people of this country for relief
work in Japan will go down in history
rs one of the finest examples of gem
,rous and benevolent humanitarianism
n our history. In this most commend
ible work the people of the Occur
rAlene district responded promptly

When the call was made for the re- {
ef OF those in distress. 6

affects our net earnings for the period
to a considerable extent.
Why Metal Prices Declined.
"A decrease in consumption is the
primary cause for declining metal
prices during the second quarter. AL
though production of zinc during the
period was 1908 tons, 43S tons less
than the preceding period, deliveries
to consumers in the same period
amounted to only 129,901 tons, com
pared with 145,722 tons in the first
quarter. The statistical position of the
on hand amounting to 21,24O tons,
which compares with S,976 tons on May
1st. The price of lead was similarly
affected during the period. while the
prices obtained for silver declined dur
ing the latter part of the second quart
er because of the termination of the
Pittman Act, under the terms of which
metal was stabilized at s1.OO an ounce.
Domestic silver is now quoted around
SO cents an ounce.
Fine Financial Condition.
There has been no material change
in your company's excellent financial
since our last report. Cash
and high grade investment bonds
amount to approximately S95O,0O0.0O,
with no indebtedness, aside from cur
rent accounts payable amounting to
about $5O,OOOOO"

STATE MINES BUREAU NEITHER
BOOSTS" NOR KNOCKS"

In another column Francis A. Thorn
son, dean of the Idaho School of Mines
and secretary of the Idaho Bureau of
Mines and Geology, calls attention to
a misleading heading over the report
of the DR.. Buwalda on the oil possibil-
tiles of southwestern and central Ida
no, published in a recent issue of the
Miner The report was confined to the
sections named and was not favorable
whereas the Objectionable heading
made it appear that it applied to all
sections of Idaho. In calling the matter
to the attention or the Miner, Dean
Thomson exemplifies the attitude of
the bureau of mines and geology to-
ward the public in giving out infOrma-
ton regarding the mineral and oil re-
of the state, which is to neither
boost nor knock" any area or sec
ton, or any enterprise designed for
the development of natural resources.
Its sole purpose is to give the public
the truth based upon careful, pains
taking and unprejudiced scientific in
vestigatiOn of the states potential and
actual mineral resources. and adhering
strictly to this policy, the bureau has
rendered and will continue to render
service to the people of Idaho.

Kelly Calls" Senator Walsh

In the course of an address deliv-

featured products generally
Kelly Comes Back.
When this statement by the senator
was called to the attention of c. f.
Kelly president of the Anaconda Cop

statement in reply:

Capitalism is based upon individual

He may invest it in life insurance

in the mines, mills and smelters did
not receive between fifty and sixty
per cent of the market price of cop
per as it is sold in the markets of the
world, which is the total price as far as
copper producers are concerned.
Since 1918, taken as the last pre-
war year. wages have increased in
the copper industry in Montana an
proximately fifty per cent, supplies
sixty-five per cent and freight sixty
five per cent, these being the prin-
cipal items of cost. While the price
of nearly every other basic commodity
hsa increased at least as much as the
proportionate increase in production,
the price of copper has declined from
an average over a ten-year period,
prior to 1917, of sixteen and two thirds
cents pound to the present prevail
ing price of less than fourteen cents.
I'm other words, labor in Montana
is receiving more than seventy per
cent of the total price received by
Montana producers for the metal
against an average, according to Sen
ator Walsh, of twenty-four per cent
received by the employees of manu-
facturers generally.
II suggest that data is available for
the senator's information and that it
IS not necessary to indulge in mislead-
ng differences"

as our experience and knowledge goes
instruction in American principles and
institutions is rather perfunctory. We
do not read of any resolution to in

a good many sentimentalists in our

our duty to prefer every country to

Announcement was made last week
that the Federal Mining & Smelling
company had secured an option on con-

is situated in Sanders county, Mon
tana, near the Idaho line, and few
miles from Heron on the Northern Pa

created quite a sensation. The ore was
found practically on the surface and
a shallow prospect tunnel disclosed a
large body OF lead silver and zinc ore
