1 claims cluttered up with Bome twenty-odd thou
sand cases. Now the total Is 10,705 cases
The claims run all the way from a few thousand
dollars into the millions. They originate for the
most part In tbe numerous contracts made by all
departments of the government for the building of
! battleships, cruisers, and other vessels; the erec-
[ tion of public buildings; dredging and Improve-
ment of rivers and harbors; the building and main
tenante of dams, locks, and seawalls; reclamation
projects; construction of dry docks, contracts for
army supplies; contracts with mall contractors
and railroad companies for carrying mails; claims
for the alleged use and infringement of patented
devices; and suits where It Is contended tbat an
I implied contract exists.
In amount the so-called "Divisor case" is the
largest. The railroads are attacking the validity
of an executive order Issued in 1S07 which bases
compensation for carrying the malls upon a divi-
sion of the total weight by seven rsther than by
six. It Is a contention that a seven-day week
rather than a six-day week was meant in the
statute covering railway mall pay. If the govern-
ment loses this case it must pay to the railroads

DEFIANCE STARCH
Is constantly growing la favor because it
the I'nlted States reclamation service. The orig
lnal contractors went Into bankruptcy after tbe
i first year's work on the job and the bonding com-
pany behind tbe contractors took over the con-
: tract. An unprecedented spring flood In tbe Sho-
shone river, accompanied by a run of bsw lugs
from a mill operated a mile or so above the site
j jf tbe dam. washed out the temporary works
which bad been stalled preparatory to the con-
struction of the present concrete dam.
It Is also alleged that the government made re-
quirements not specified In the terms of the orig-
inal contract which necessitated the removal of
{ tbe foundation of the dam 12 feet upstream. It Is
sought to fasten on the government responsibility
for the run of saw logs and It Is contended that
! the requirements of the government engineers
1 were unusual and unnecessarily strict
Tbe contentions of tbe L'nited States, on tbe
other band, are tbat neither contractor appre-
ciated tbe peculiar difficulties of Uie work under-
taken ; that tbe plant and material brought on tbe
ground for tbe performance of tbe work was con
splcuously Inadequate; tbat the engineers em
ployed by-the contractors were Incompetent and
Inefficient and not qualified by training and experi-
ence for tbe undertaking of such a wjrk; and. In
short, tbat all of tbe difficulties encountered grew
out of the negligence, inefficiency and Improper
methods of tbe contractors.
Tbe claims growing out of naval matters are
numerous and large. There is a device used In
manufacturing torpedoes which is known as a
"superheater." It is a contrivance whereby fuel
is burned In tbe compressed air driving tbe motor
by which the torpedo is propelled, so that the com-
pressed air is heated to a high pressure before Its
energy is utilized. Its use Increases the speed and
range of torpedoes.
The question now Is whether the United 8tates
must pay the E. W Hliss company |f.00 per tor-
pedo purchased by the I nited States during the
last five years containing this device. Tbe total
amount at Issue Is l'25.000 It Is an Intricate pat-
ent rase the decision of which depends upon
whether patents held by the Hliss company cover
the type of ' superheater" used in the American
torpedo.
Lltigstlon over sixteen years old Involves the
question whether the I nited States government
must disgorge more than 1340.000 In addition to
the million already paid for tbe government dry
dock at the League Island Navy yard, Philadel-
phia The contractor claims he was compelled to
make a much greater excavation than was specified
In the terms of the contract covering tbe work.
The answer of the government Is that the con-
tractor did not follow the method recommended
by the board of naval engineers, which had studied
the matter, and hence was himself responsible and
liable for the extra cost.
The court of clslms has sustained tbe contrac-
tor and the department of justice is now asking
the Supreme court to overrule the court of claims.
Whatever the government may have to pay for
generally is valued at astonishingly high figures.
A submarine case involves $400,000. It binges
upon a string of patents on buoyance regulating
apparatus for submarine boats. The Electric
Boat company Is back of the case. It claims that
the Invention described and claimed In said sev
eral letters patent, snd each of them, are and have
been recognized to be of great utility and value
In the construction and operation of submarine
boats " The origlnsl Inventor, lawrence V. Spear
ssBlgn d his rights to the Submarine B.ial com-
pany It Is carefully pointed out tbat "Spear was
the original, first and sole Inventor of the Im-
provements." and It la then declared that the I'nlt-
ed States has used the Inventions without license
and has neglected and refused to pay royalty.
About the right thing for l'ncle Sam to do. It la
alleged, is to pay tbe Electric Boat companv $100,-
000 P*r submarine boat containing the Spear ap-
paratus At the date of the filing of the brief, De-
cember 10, 1915, four such boats were In use The
case, however, involves a demand for another
$100,000, for each boat built subsequently by the
United States In which the inventions are used.
Land-grant railroads, under the terms of their
charters, are required to carry troopa of tbe I nited
States free The question has now come up as
to whether the National Guard when transported
to tbe annual maneuvers In various parts of tbe
I'nrted States "are troops of the I'nlted States."
As the test case stands the Southern railroad asks
for $2,447.90 for the payment of railway fares for
the transportation of officers and men of the Ala-
bama National tJuard and the Mississippi National
Guard from points In Alabama and Mississippi to
the I nlted States military post and camp at
Cbickamauga Park. Georgia, In 190H and 1910.
When finally disposed of, however, a much larger
amount will be Involved. It will set a precedent
under which. If thtf Southern railroad Is successful,
other of the land grsnt railroads will coma Into
court and ask pay for transporting the mllltla
The established practice of the war and treasury
departments Is thst the. organized militia when
participating with the regular army at a military
camp at joint maneuvers and field Instructions ara
entitled to the pay. subsistence and transportation
allowances of the officers and men of tha
regular army; that said organized troops when
so transported are traveling under orders of the
war department, and payment for their transpor-
tation can only be made on the same basis appli-
cable to tbe regular army This would mean tbat
transportation for mllltla over land grant railroad*
would be subject to tbe land grant deductions
made for the transportation of regulars It is
held that tbe expression, "troops of the I nited
states." as used In land grant acts Is sufficiently
broad to include organized militia when traveling
under the orders of the war department.

TKXT—If any man offend not In word.
■ lie unit la a perfect man, and ablr also
to bridle tha whole body.— James 3:2.
Speech Is a distinguishing gift of
man. Said a witty German: "1 will
believe thst an
animal thinks
when he tells me
so." The world
would be
strange place If
we could not talk,
yet what a world
it Is because we
can talk! The
difficulty of con-
trolling speech Is
pointed out In
our text, snd
those who have
been striving
longest for per-
fection appreel
ate most fully
this difficulty. It will be worth while
to follow the discussion of the tongue
which Is found In the succeeding
verses of the third chapter of James.
First of all, James speaks of the
power of this "little member which
boasteth great things" (vv. 3. 4). Like
the bit in the horse's mouth which en-
ables us to turn the whole body, or
the tiny rudder of the ship, which di-
rects its course through the atormy
deep, so the tongue Is a great power
in the guidance of life. We marvel
when we see the multitude swayed
by the speech of the preacher or the
voice of the singer. We need only
to mention Magna Charta. the Declar-
ation of Independence, the Emancipa-
tion proclamation or Luther'a Theses,
to be Impressed with the power of
even written words.
But James goes on to speak of the
mischief which may be wrought by
the tongue (vv 6. <). It is like a lit-
tle fire kindling a great forest. A
venomous tongue hurts not only oth-
ers. but oneself; James says: "it de-
flleth the whole body." and we may
be certain that so long as an evil
thought Injures the spirit, we cannot
escape from our evil words.
Hedges About ths Tongue.
An old writer says: "We may see
the cunning and curious work of na-
ture which hath barred and hedged
nothing In so strongly as the tongue,
with two rows of teeth and therewith
two lips; besides, she hath placed It
far from the heart, that It should not
utter that which the heart conceived."
James goes on to speak of the uo-
tamableness of the tongue (vv. 7, 8).
Every kind of beasts snd birds, of
creeping things and things In the
sea. has been tamed by man. but the
