article affected.

full. For the benefit of one man the
duty on nickel and all its ores and other
crude forms was largely increased, and
the price advanced. At the same time
the ring succeeded in getting duty on
copper in all its fOrms-refined, ore, re-
gulus, pig and scTap-thatiS is nearly pro-
hibitOry. For, while we produce the
best copper produced in the world, we
also produce surplus over our own CON-
sumption, and this surplus is increasing.
Copper, therefore, should be cheaper
here than in England, who consumes
more than she produces. But the copper
men continue to keep the price in this
country about fifteen per cent. above
the English price. This is done by an
occasional expectation of several million
pounds, to which nearly every producer
contributes according to his production
This is sold in Europe at about the Eng
lish price, which is ordinarily about
three cents per pound, or, say fifteen per
cent. below the price eXacted of the
American consumers. A bond is taken
from the purchasers that it shall be con-
sumed in Europe, and thus its reimpor-
tatiOn into this country duty free as an
American production is prevented. This
result is that the American manufac-.
turer of metallic cartridges for foreign
governments is compelled to pay for the
article of greatest value that enters into
their manufacture, and an American
article, about fifteen per cent. more than
the manufacturer pays for the same
thing, while there is an actual surplus
production of this article in this cOun--
try.
But this is not the whole story. Who
are the parties to be benefited? And
how much? The answers to these ques-
tiOns almost stagger belief. One min
ing company, whose mines produce
more copper than all other mines in the
United States, and whose production
is every year about One-tenth of the
total production of the whole world,
whose capital is $2,5O0,OOO, pays divi-
dend every year of 100000 or eighty
per cent. of its capital, to its stOckhOId-
ers, and has so done for several years.

THE COPPER RING.

Nickel and copper are as nearly raw
materials as anything except the ores
of those metals can be, and they are the
basis of a long series of manufacturing
industries. There is but one producer
of nickel in the United States-a man,
by the way, who. is very prominent in
the approaching tariff convention, a
member of all its preliminary commit
tees, and who fully believes in tariff
discipline"
In one of the early tariff reyisiOns dur
ing the war, he mOdestly asked only
about two hundred per cent. increase in
the duty on his pet article over the then
existing duty. Congress took a mOder-
ate course, and gave him an advance of
fifty per cent.
This was very unsatisfactory to him.
After several failures to get greater
duty. ring composed Of himself and
the icad. spe,ter and c1TNnr mep Of the
coun ry WIS formed to get a largely i'm
creased duty on all these metals. This

A VERY SMART GIRL.
Why Miss Belle Clinton Expects
to be Worth $4,000.
LChicago bune. Des A,oInes Let,er.l

lChicago bune. Des Mones Letter.1
The smartest girl I've met in Iowa l
met yesterday at Nevada, Story county,
northwestern IOwa-Miss Belle Clinton.
Miss Clinton is a bright-eyed, rosy
checked girl of about twenty, as full of
fun and health and yigOr as a good girl
can be. Two years ago Miss Clinton
was school teacher. Saving up by her
teaching about $160, she, last spring,
borrowed a span of horses from her
father, rugged up "prairie schooner"
and, taking her little brother, started
for Dakota. Miss Clinton says laugh
ingly to-day, speaking of her trip:
why, never lived so nicely in my life,
and never had such an appetite, and
such courtesy L received everywhere!
Rough, rude men would come to our
camp, and, after had talked to them
awhile, offer to build my fire and actually
bring water t. me. We went up through
the wheat country, which they call the
Jim River country It's about 100
miles east from the Missouri at Fort
Sully. hOmesteaded 100 acres of land,
lhen L took up timber claim of 12O
acres more"
What is timber-claim?"
why, | hired man, and we set ont
ten acres of trees. This gave me 100
acres more. So L have 800 acres now.
But L must tell you about those trees.
Ihey were young locust, apple and black
walnut sprouts. L sOwed a peck of To-
Gust beans, pint of apple-seed and two
bushels of blackwalnuts in our garden
in Iowa year ago. These sprouts were
little fellows and we could set them out
fast-just go along and stick them in
the ground. But they are Just as good.
| beliVe my 1900 little black-walnut
sprouts will be worth $15 apiece in ten
years and $50 apiece in fifteen. My To-
Gust trees will some time fence the
whole country"
"Then what did you dO?"
I'VE built shanty and broke up five
acres of land and this fall we came back
to Iowa to spend the winter, and here
we are. In the spring I'll go back with
more black-walnut and locust sprouts
and take up 100 acres more. The trees
are just what [ want to plant, anyway,
and they'll pay better than any wheat
crop that could be raised-Only I've got
to wait for them ten or twelve years; but
can wait"
Here is a girl who owns in her own
right 800 acres of splendid black prairie
soil now and who will own 4S0 acres in
the spring, every acre of which will
bring So within three years and $40
within five years and $50 within ten
years. Her black-walnut and locust
trees will be worth as much more. At
thirty she will be worth $4,000.
