British leaders have proved themselves ‘perfectly able to cone with the situation cannot be questioned, Britain had an army of something less than sixty thousand ready for the field, but that its forces have again shown themselves to be ideal soldiers is abundantly evident, forces, overwhelming in numbers, the little British army in the first month of the war again and when reinforcements enabled the Allies to turn back the German invasion, the Britons were foremost in the advance, as they had been the last to retreat. The first phase of the war is now over, and while it is difficult ‘to judge from the meager despatches the exact positions of the contending forees, there can be no doubt that the Germans who advanced so confidently towards Paris have been forced back to the frontier and that their main forces are engaged in a desperate effort to prevent the advancing and destroying their communications. indicate that the enemy’s efforts to force a way south along the coast, and thus outflank the Allies’ left wing, have utterly failed, and as an army of such magnitude as that invading Belgium can- not stand still for long, we may expect to hear of a retrograde movement which will end, after a stubborn ‘defence of the German frontier, in the invasion of the Kaiser’s empire by British, French and Belgian traops. - Germans are talking loudly of the preparation for Britain, and some apparently expect a combined naval and aerial attack. on England, ‘but we hazard. guess ‘that the “next great movement of the war The war may be prolonged, but one thing i is ‘certain—it wili] : will net end until the Allies dictate terms.of peace in Berlin, concerning the strength of the That: the In the beginning, Great _ Fighting against victorious again proved its superiority, and Allies from penetrating their line As this is written, reports “surprise”? they have in will bea German retreat, NOW IS THE TIME - TO INVEST IN MINES “Many people seem to have the idea that because such big mines as the Anaconda, the Utah Copper and other large coppers have right now reduced to half capacity that it would be foolish _to venture into the mining in- dustry until after the advent of - normal times,’’ said John B. Tay- _lor, _ practical miners and consulting one of the best known engineersof Utah. ‘'Yet if they will stop long enough to think they will see the fallacy of such a stand. “The present depression is as mining boom as day is to follow night. ‘It has taken. place in ‘every instance of the world’s This has been the experience in the United States following the rebellion and every large European war since. His- tory will repeat itself again following - the present erisis in _.

M. Levy, general manager of the Ely Consolidated Copper company, a’ well-known consulting engineer, after having spent six months in New York and Boston, where he succeeded Lin enlisting capital in some min- ing enterprises, says the Salt Lake Herald-Republican, “The eastern people are Le- ginning to look upon mining with a great deal more faith than for- merly,’? he continued, ‘In times past they looked askance at men- tion of mines. Now that they have had many losses in indus- triala, they have turned toward mining with much more favor than for years. They now know from experience that there are worse things than putting. their money in mines. Yet right now I would not advise western min- ing men to go east for capital: a little while and it will be plen- tiful.’ | Tungsten deposits have been discovered in Korea,; and mines are being developed, The Miner is -twodollarsa year to any address in Canada: ‘to United States, three dollars. ? ‘GOOD MORNING! i We Are Introducing Amarican Silk American Cashmere American Cotton-Liste HOSIERY Thay have stood the test, Give. -}- “real foot comfort, No seams to rip, Never become loose or bag- The shape is knit in—not 4. pressed in, GUARANTEED for finenesa, style, superiority of material and workmanship.
