: Indiana Copper Mining Company Of
Lake SUPERIOR.

1t Will be perceived, by advertisement in this
days paper, that a company, under the above title,
has been organized in this city. Henry P. Coburn,
Esq, Clerk Of the Supreme Court, and Messrs Isaac
IL. Roll and J. w. LangsdaIe have been appointed
Trustees. The company is composed of some of the
most wealthy capitalists and enterprising citizens Of
this part of the State, and fully able and competent
to carry any enterprise in which it is likely to en-
gage. Messrs. Roll and Langsdae, two of the Trus-
tees, we informed, will leave indianapolis in a
day or two, n a visit to Lake Superior We would
advise them to keep their eyes wide open in making
purchases. See well that the titles are good, &c.
They not considered green here but may be suck
ed in at the North. Indianians are always for fair
sailing. We wish the company success in the enter
prise, although there some here that think the
copper enterprise ham5ug. This company, howev-
er, spare few hundred dollars, by way of expert
ment, lrithom hurting them much! They have conf
dcnce in their experiment. inasmuch as they have
limited the number Of shares be subscribed to one
thousand reserying hundred, which the present
stockholders have, in preference TO all Others in
pro rata proportion the stock already taken on the
return Of the two trustees from Lake Superior. We
also informed, that the ten per cent assessment
will be promptly met by the shareholders previous TO
the departure Of the Trustees.

Public Land Sales in the Great Miami
EeRSnn.nR


BY letter from the Commissioner of the General
Land Office in reply 10 Gov Whitcomb, which viii
be found in another column, it will be that the
above sales have been postponed until the 2Oh Of
December next Although this is not as long post
Ponement we could have wished. and the
Governor wrote for, which was the fail Of 1913 at
least; yet are gratifed to believe that it will
afford some relief 10 the settlers. When the Presi-
dent returns to Washington (for this done in his
absencerwe feel strong confidence that a further
postponementw be made
Gov Whicomb has also written to the General
Land Office in relation 10 the lands in the " seven
mile strip and others similarly situated which have
also been advertised for sale We are quite conf
dent from investigations made here, that the adyer-
Using Of the lands last referred to- has happened
through a mistake Of the clerk in the General Land
Office, who prepares the proclamations.
The reply Of the Commissioner, which may be
expected in few weeks, will settle the matter, of
which our readers shall be duly apprized.
1t all events the postponement Of the sales until
the Goth of December next will afford an opportunity
for the State Legislature or Congress to give full
relief, which would doubtless be done, if indeed it
does not (as we believe it wilD turn out to be mis-
take as already stated
