lrency when they could for the asking
receive clean and practically imper-
ishable silver dollars, who hurt the
cause of silver The other day in
Spokane the writer had occasion to
present a ten-dollar bill to the CASH
Ter in a restaurant in payment for
service In change he was handed
five dollar bill and three dirty and
much worn one-dollar bills. Being
asked if she could give him silver in
place of the three ones, the lady
cheerfully replied: Certainly, but
people here generally prefer paper to
silver" This in a popular restaurant
in Spokane, a city that boasts of be-
ing the center of a vast mining sec
ton in which silver is one of the chief
products, at time too when the
price of the metal is in some cases
less than the cost of production ri
the people who are directly interested
in silver mining are disloyal to the
metal in their daily transactions, it is
hardly to be expected that people far
removed from the mines would show
concern in having silver rehabilitated
as a money metal. The attitude of the
people OF Spokane as indicated by the
above incident is unfortunately not
different from that of people of other
arge communities in the west, where |
he sentiment in favor of silver is /
strong on paper but decidedly weak
n practice.

ADMINISTRATION HAS AT LEAST
ONE SAVING GRACE.

Hamilton Holt, the militant league
of nations advocatae, says: what we
need in Washington today is some one
with the courage of Roosevelt. the hu-
mainly of Taft or the vision of Will
son; but 1 see no one there with any
of these qualities" The United States
is in a bad way with not one of its
legislators or executives possessed Of
either courage, humanity or vision.
The wonder is that Mr.. Holt contin-
les to abide with us. To be fair MI
Holt should have admitted that the
grace of patriotism which he himself
20 conspicuously lacks.

THOMSON AT HOME.
Moscow star Mirror

MOSCOW star MIRROR
Dean Francis A. Thomson of the
school of mines at the University OF
Idaho, is to be commended on the
frankness with which he gives ex-
preston to his opinions as to mineral
deposits in the state. People look to
the school of mines and to the bureau
of mines and geology for information
based on knowledge and they are get
ting it. II would be very easy to evade
the issue. Dean Thomson, however
is not doing that, but when an issue is
raised regarding possible mineral de-
pOsits frankly states his opinion This,
of course. does not set well with per-
sons who have seen visions of wealth
in oil, platinum or some other mineral
which they have been led to believe
exists in paying quantities in some To-
cality but it probably saves them from
spending their money endeavoring to
uncover something which does not ex-
ist Millions of dollars have been ex-
pended by well meaning parties in
for minerals, money which
might have been saved by consulting
a competent geologist Also the guilt
Dility of the public when it comes to
mineral promotion schemes, is we'll
known, and it is the duty of the man
who knows and who is in the public
service to protect the public in so far
rs he can. Dean Thomson deals with
acts as the geologist finds them and
n so doing his worth to the state be-
zones greater than is perhaps gener-
lily recognized.

Black Bear company would have re-

SELL BONDS OF COUNTY
ON FAVORABLE TERMS
GO TO UNION TRUST cO.-MAY
BE REDEEMED AFTER
FIVE YEARS.

Last Monday afternoon the county
commissioners accepted the bid of the
Union Trust company of Spokane for
the 100000 road bonds authorized at
the recent special election. There
were two other very close competit-
ors for the bonds so close, in fact,
that it required several hours for the
commissioners to decide which was
the most favorable The bid of the
Union Trust company which was fin
ally accepted, offered a premium of SO
on the entire issue, 100000 Of which
to bear interest at the rate of Sc per
cent and $4,000 at per cent This
is regarded as decidedly good sale
considering the unsettled condition of
the bond market the short time and
optional provision. and is at the same
time a fine testimonial to the high
rating of ShOshone county securities.
Many bids were submitted from vari-
Gus parts of the country and there
We're twenty-five representatives of
bond buyers present when the bids
were opened. The fact that Shoshone
county has large taxable wealth and
no bonded debt made the issue ex-
tremely attractive.

shone county, the conditions under /
which the bonds were sold are most |
favorable. and for this the commits /

OUTLOOK BETTER FOR cOEUR
D'ALENE ZINC.

Substantial encouragement was Civ
en- TO the owners of zinc properties in
the Occur dAlene district by the ac-
ton Of the Anaconda Copper Mining
company in contracting for the entire
zinc output of the Success and Morn
ing mines, and in Investigating other
possible sources of zinc supply. par
ticuarly the Pine creek section This
is taken to mean that the Anaconda
company is in the market for addi-
tional zine from this district a stua-
ton that brightens the outlook and
may result in bringing in new zinc
producers. Until recently the electro
lytic zinc reduction plant at Great
Fails obtained a capacity supply from
the mines of Butte. but the reduced
production of some of the mines there
has made it necessary for the Ana
conda company to seek shipments
from other fields to make up the def
cheney, and the Occur d'Alene district
is the most convenient and most
promising field available. The Great
Falls plant has rated capacity of
$50 tons of metallic zinc per day and
announcement has been made that
this capacity will soon be largely in /
creased. Thus the entrance of Ana K
conda into this district means more
than merely contracting for enough (
zinc to supply the present shortage; /
it means that the company is looking
to this district to supply its increased T
capacity also. The Anaconda com
pany owns control of the American
Brass company, and the entire pro-
duct of the Great Falls plant is used
by that company in the manufacture
of brass. incidentally it may be
stated that the enormous copper out
put of Anaconda is not sufficient to
supply the brass company and it is q
stated that this shortage was the e
main factor that caused Anaconda to /
lake over control of Chile Copper to
enable it to supply the great brass
company with copper from its own
mines.
1t is possible that the invasion of
me Occur d'Aiene zinc field by Ana g
.onda may cause the Bunker Hin x "
sullivan company to speed up its "
'lans to erect an electrolytic zinc
liant at Kellogg, although this is "
ardly to be expected unless there .
houid be decided increase in the
eneral demand for zinc. The pur-
ose OF the Bunker Hin x sullivan in
establishing a zinc reduction plant at ~
