KELLOGG.-Joh Sawbridge, man
ager, reports that the Sunshine Min
ing company, operating near here,
recently set new record when net
value of $4,000 was shown for 40
tons of crude and concentrated ores.
The shipment included 1O3 sacks
(four and half tons) of crude ore,
of net value of $1,000 The concen-
trates contained 10 per cent lead, Sc
per cent copper in addition to a high
silver content. THE sacked ore came
from the Polaris vein, reached
through the 400-foot level of the shaft
workings at depth of 1000 feet from
the surface" Mr.. Sawbridge said.
"The source of ore concentrated was
mainly the Yankee vein, reached
through the 200-foot level of the shaft
workings. Ore produced in June by
the Sunshine has net value in ex-
cess of $4,000. 1t may reach $4,000.
The quantity is equal to the capacity
of three cars. The net value of the
ore produced since March IL is $685.
600. We could pay off at any time
remainder of $4,000 on the bond
but it is not due until November of
next year. The property was bought
for $l65,000. 1t consists of the Yam
kee Boy and Yankee Girl groups of
Ia claims, on Big creek, near Kel-
logg."
BURKE.-M. j. Kalez, director of
the Ajax Mining company at Burke,
said that a car Of lead-silver ore
shipped from that property to the
Bunker Hill smelter, estimates that
the lead content will be upward of
20 per cent. He added that ore has
been followed virtually through the
raise, now 375 feet in length. A sta
ton was cut and drifts started at a
point 200 feet east above the tunnel
level A drift was run 40 feet east
and another 10 feet west on this lev
ell, known as the intermediate, and
poli IdCcS were III ore Wnen Lle
work was suspended
The high grade ore is six inches to
three and a half feet in width in the
raise" he said ut pinched to eight
inches a few feet from the top, but

WALLACE.-Cr osscutting for vein
is under way on the 200-foot level
of the Stratton mine, three and half
miles from Wallace. 1t is estimated
that the vein will be encountered
about 30 feet north of the shaft. Min
ers working by hand are making five
feet each "a hours.
The shaft sunk from the tunnel lev
ell on an incline to the south of 60
degrees is 27O feet in depth At a
point 22S feet below the collar, which
gives vertical depth of 200 feet, a
large station has been cut, and while
this station is not entirely complet-
ed, miners are turning to the north
in quest of the ore body.

expected that it will prove longer on
the lower elevation. Development of
the Stratton has been spectacular
Ore taken out during development
has paid all costs, including purchase
of surrounding property, at price
around $60000 and erection of a sur
face plant on tracks of the Northern
Pacific railroad.
IDAHO FALLS.-An old, extinct
volcanic mountain, located about 100
miles north Of Idaho Falls, just across
the Montana line, became active last
week and poured river of mud down
its side, according to advices received

The fact that some 81 different

creates serious difficulty in the use
of the telephone in business. Many
large cities, such as Yokohama,
Shanghai, Hong Kong and Toxic, are
finding solution of the problem in
the use of automatic or machine.

HELLENIC SOCIETY
FORMED IN VALLEY

Over 200 Imperial Valley resi-
dents of Greek birth or descent
have organized the uellenic-Am
can society, founded for the pur-
pose of promoting the social and fra
ternal welfare Of its members and
people of their race, and including
in its membership prominent Greeks
in all parts Of the valley.
The organization has elected of.
ficcrs and a board of trustees Civ.
ing representation to all parts of
the valley, In order to prevent any
personal publicity the names Of of
ficcrs and trustees are not to be
made public for the present.
While the objects of the society
will be largely philanthropical, ev-
cry effort will be made to have the
membership familiarizc themselves
with American customs and laws,
encourage Greek residents to be
come citizens of the United States
and conform to the laws of their
adopted country.
Ell Centre has been chosen as the
headquarters of the society and
regular meetings will be held, due
notice of which will be given to
members.

OFFICE CLOTHES FOR OPERA

London has put Hamlet in knickers and got away
with it. Moscow proposes to put Siegfred in sack
coat. Vladimir Dantchenko has been telling Berlin
about it, and arousing interest among the Germans
II should interest America because he expects to in
troduce his revolutionary methods over here soon.
His big purpose, says Dantchenko, is ito show
that opera be made plausible" That, it must be
admitted is big order. There is probably other
form OF art that strikes ordinary person so far
removed from real life.
The Russian director wants to eliminate fancy cos
tunes and scenery minimize makeup, get singers who
act, and separate the chorus from the principals,
making sort of choir He thinks that the avoidance
of stage trappngs unfamiliar in ordinary life will
make everything look less artificial and concentrate
the attention of the audience the art of the perform
ers.
He may be right about it. Eaborateness of cos
tune makeup and stage setting has been overdone in
recent years, especially in England and America.
Stage splendor has covered up vast amount of poor
acting and singing. Stripped essential trappings,
actors and singers may give real art and the
public learn to look harder for that commodity.
But it's bold attempt. American audiences have
become accustomed to gorgeouSness on the stage
longing to different periods and lands that they may
find ludrlcrous what less sophisticated audiences
might takes matter of They may find
slmpllfled grand opera too much like college glee
club concert or the music at a Rotary Club dinner.

HUMAN EAGLES

One of the naval air officers at the aviation hear
ing IN Washington remarked the other day that the
vice tended to develop "aviator's complex He
planned that feeling of "snobbishness and conce"
leading avators overestimate their ability and try
to impress the lay with their unusual skill
This may all be true, though it is curious that
member of the service would thus lay his comrades
open to criticism. But it is only part of the story.
There IS more to the aviators complex than he
tiors
1t shown in the World War and it has been
shown since, that there develops in the air service
at least among the real fyers-a set of standards,
morale and spirit, that have parallel in any other
branch Of military service today. The flyers feel
themselves the arstocrats of national defense.
And the public takes them at their own estimate.
In the short history of their branch of the service they
have shown such courage and skill, such loyalty to
each other and such knghy regard for honor on the
battlefield, whether dealing with friends or foes, that
they have earned the right to be considered in class
by themselves.
The very medium in which they operate adds to
the respect nstinctively felt for them and helps to
create in them certain feeling of superiority The
birds of the air naturally enough feel themselves above
the rest of creation. An eagle knows himself to be an
eagle, and respects himself accordingly, and makes
other creatures respect him.
This need not be called 'concet' 1t is as valu-
able statement could be developed in any branch
Of public service, if frankly recognized and turned to
public account.

LITTLE JOHNSON

There is little Ior no Johgson grass
along the main canal n the I'm.

port made by horticultural Com
missioner Harrigan, following two
day trip down the canal from An.
dradc.
The purpose Of the trip was to
obtain an idea of the extent TO
which Johnson grass exists i'll the
Imperial Irrigation district terri
tory on the Mexican side Of the
line. While there are some fields
infested with the noxious weeds,
bitches are remarkably free from
the pest.
Governor Rodriguez, who has
agreed to cooperate in every way
possible with the Imperial county
officials i'll cXtcrminating johnson
grass, was furnished this afternoon
by Harrigan with copy of the
California law governing noxious
weeds and the governor has express
ed his intention of Incorporating the
California law in the regulations of
his territory.

One surprising event on the trip.
iiarrlgan stated today, was the dis
cuvcrv OF immense colonies of bcaV.
crS i'll the main canal. The fact
that beavers exist in such Il warm
country was Il surprise to IIarrigan
and the other members of the party
making the trip. For miles along
the eana4 banks there were plenty
of signs Of the beavers where they
had cut down trees, and the noise
made by the approach of the boat
carrying the party was the signal
for whole schools of beavers to flop
off the banks into the canal.
Thus Ear the bcuverS have not

LABOR AND CAPITAL IN ITALY

Italy tries a new way Of handling the capital
labor problem and a way which challenges world
wide attention. It is policy Of complete organization
on both sides with the government as arbitcr.
There in Italy General Confederation of In
dustrY and General Confederation of Labor Unions,
representing respectively the employers and the work
Each is to be encouraged in perfecting and com
pctmg its organization. Each then is to recognize the
other the sole body through which it will deal in all
questions affecting wages employment and general
working conditions.
The Facats hold" says . Rome dispatch, that
the state mas the indspuablc right of tutelagc
both capital and labor, to that both get square
deal. This. they believe, will result in greater and
economical production, from which the whole
ton, including the workmen, will benefit
This policy seeks to get rid Of the old idea that
capital and labor necessarily antagonstic. 1t
lodges the Sociass doctrine Of class war" by max
ing each side how helpless it is without the other.
1t substitutes for industrial warfare peaceful nego-
taton. 1t holds the ideal Of cooperation between
labor and capital as the only possible in modern
industry.
1T might be said that industrial development al
most everywhere seems to be toward such an ideal
especially in America. But in most countries it
slowly. The Italian government is trying, at bold
stroke to accomplish what otherwise at BEST might
take many years Of industrial evolution.
We haven't doubt in the world that there's every
biz much chance of Dempsey getting into real
fight as there is Of France making real payment.
