. Criticism of the action of tha eom
mlBslon la growing stronger, coming
from different parts of the state, and
la addttoa It haa dereloped that the
action was probably illegal, especial
ly In the case of the soldiers' home

system laid ont by the legislature.
PROTECT MTNTNG
Copper production Is a necessary
part of the conduct of the war. In
time of war the mining and smelting
of copper, so greatly needed in mili
tary operation, is fighting for the
country as much as making muni
tions or guns or equipment or going
to the front. An agitator or any one
else who endeavors to close mines in
order to curtail the output of copper
Is doing an act that is unpatriotic
and disloyal and is operating as an
enemy to the country.
The strikes in the mining sections
of the west are not directed against
the mining companies so much as
against the government of the Unit
ed States. In realty It Is a blow at
the country.
An abundance of copper Is a help
to the United States of great Im
portance In its war operations. A
shortage of copper In of material as
sistance to Germany. To Incite a
strike in the copper mines Is playing
the game of the nation's enemies;
It Is an act of treason to the United
States under the circumstances and
conditions.
