Wm. Ridenour had his home at the copper mine. back of Peach Springs, near the Grand canyon, burned with it's contents last week. It was the work of an iucendiary rat, which chewed a bunch of matches into a flame. The mine continues to pro. duce high grade copper. A carload was shipped last week and another carload is nearly ready to ship. Mineral Wealth.

It is generally predicted that this bill and similar bills for New Mexico and Oklahoma will be favor. ably reported, but nobody seems to have been able to ascertain Speaker Reeds attitude toward either or all of them. Upon his attitude will depend their fate. The House will almost certainly pass them if given an oppor. tunity.

Al Marsh, who made an adventurous journey on raft down the Grand canyon for more than fifty miles, says that he found gold, silver, copper, lead, coal, asbestos and other min. erals, but nothing very rich. Game was very scarce, only small animals oeing found, but he saw the tracks of a few mountain sheep.-Mineral Wealth

CONSUMPTION IN FRANCE.
The French Army Is One Of the Creates
Of Modern Times.

Of Modern Times.
every Frenchman owes service to
the state in return for the protection it
affords his person. his rights and his
property" This principle is the foun-
dation Of the military administration of
the French, whose army is one of the
greatest OF modern times. and whose
military discipline is said to approach
az near to perfection as is considered
possible in so great an organization.
Formerly the period of active military
service was five years, but recently the
chamber passed q bill reducing it to
three, at the same time lengthening the
periods spent with the various stages of
the reserve force. AS in Germany, it is
possible to get a reduction of this term
provided the young man can produce
proof Of n certain standard of education.
The degree Of bachelor, the certifi-
cate d'etude or the passing of a special
examination set for the purpose enables,
though it does not %entitlc, the recruit to
get his period Of service reduced to ono
year. This communication is only granted
where there is sufficient ground for be.
lieving the mel are adequately trained
Il up to the required standard.
Once out of the active army, the men
pass into the reserve for six years, where
they undergo IL short annual period Of
training until thoroughly efficient sol.
diers. The next sin years are spent with
the reserve, after which they are drafted
into the territorial army, or third line
OF defense, for another six years, fire.
quently rising III rank to the position OF
lieutenant, but not higher. Thence they
are put on the reserve territorial list.
This system gives France Il peace army
Of over 500, 600, which in time of wal
can be augmented to $500, 900 men, O.
ever more.
Partly as II result of the republican
nature of the Frcnchman, and the nd.
ministrativc government, there is hardly
ever Il trace Of class feeling in the rank.
The man of good blood receives no bet.

NOT A PHILhNTHROPlST.
Although He willingly Gave y New Floor
For AL Old One.

It is not very often that such a SEEM
ingly philanthropic offer is made by one
business man 10 another as that told of
by a partner in an old bullion house to
a reporter.
"Not long ago." no said, "a dealer
in gold and silver heard that one floor
Of a building which had not been occu-
pied for some time was to be rented,
but that the prospective tenant had in
sisted that II new floor be laid before he
take possession, as the old one had be-
come very much worm. The bullion
dealer knew that the previous occupant
had been IL manufacturer of jewelry and
had been i'll business in the place for
many years. He promptly visited the
wnc of the property and told him that
he would put i'll a new floor Of the best
wood for nothing. The owner made a
few inquiries, but the dealer said very
little in reply, except that he thought
he would manage to scrape Il good deal
of gold and silver dust from off the
floor. His offer was accepted. The wood
for the new floor and the labor for lay
ing it cost about 5000.
"The old flooring was burned and
the ashes put through a course of re-
ductiOn. The result was that the bullion
dealer obtained nearly $500 for the gold
and silver which were brought out, or u
profit of about 100 per cent on the opcr-
alton.
Every manufacturer of jewclry or
worker i'll the precious metals calculates
that he will lose about $500 i'll 'satu-
rating new quarters of the usual loft
size. The gold and silver dust penetrates
the pores of the wood and small parti-
Giles are ground into the floor. After
just SO much is lost in this way the
waste ceases and all dust that falls to
the floor or adheres to the wall may be
swept up or off and saved. The sweep
ings in these factories and i'll bullion
offices are always saved and reduced"

that in the election of 1892 they

dent and congress who said protec-
ton was unconstitutional. They
know they repealed the Mckinley
bull. They know what the effect Of
it has been. They know by the
immense Republican majorities of

that thew had been deceived in

TO deceive the voter with this time.

your place, l would try and hide
my tariff record from view, just the
same as you are trying TO do.
| wish to call attention briefly to
u few more statements contained in
the Herald article. Kelley says we
made no mention of the panic of
1878. My former article IA writ
ten OH the subject of tariff, anc as
| do lot consider that the panic of
1873 had any relation TO the tariff,
| did not mention it. Blaine III
his History of Congress from 1860
to 1880 says that the panic of 1873
was the natural result of the
Lie says that the var took over two
millions of able-bodied men from
their usual employments, which
made labor and production scarce.
The laborer-e-id producers had TO
support the army which produced
nothing. This made high war
prices and high values generally.
After the war was over the army
not only fed itself but went to
work producing. The scarcity of
labor and productions ceased. BY
1873, the labor and productions and
prices generally fell so as to adjust
themselves with the conditions of
affairs then existing. Prices com,
menced falling IN 1866 and resulted
in the panic of 1878. Neither
money nor tariff was the primary
cause of The. panic.
Kelley again says that shere is
n proposition that is agreed upon
by all political economists and that
is hal prices and values are high
or low according To the amount of
money in circulation. / now have
before me a book written by In lam
iuent authority on political econ
omy which says that prices and
values are not governed by the vol

M of money in circulation, aud.
this author cites France and Greece.
France has Il per capita circulation
of s35.7 z while Greece has a per
capita ejaculation Of 20 cents, and
prices are as high ia Greece as IN
France, while ii Kelley statement
is true, prices ia France ought to
DC more than a hnndfed times high
er than in Greece. Ii is supply and
demand that governs, prices aud
values. In countries ike Greece
with q small volume Of money,
there are more checks aud drafts
used. 1t is an old saying that when
a man tells one lie, he must bolster
it up with another. That saving is
verified here. In order to prove
his former statement was true, he
says that at the close of the wal the
per capita circulation of the United
States was about $50. The truth
is that 1t was about $40, and the
circulation per capita In 1896,
about s23, with low prices, is great
er than ii was i'll 1865 wlsh high
prices. Bryan says III several of
his speeches that we had higher
prices at the close of the war on
less per capita circulation than we
now have. Who is correct, Kelley
or Bryan Bryan is supported by
the statistical reports. Kelley
says in the first column Of his article
that "him who ignores these staris-
tics MUST be either a fool or a fiend. !" !,
The same statistics proves Kelley
TO be both.

gurated, he found a surplus OF $780,

the bill as a whole is a protective
tariff or a tariff. A free
trade or revenue-only tariff may
have a very high average rate of
duty and at the same time afford
no protection whatever. This ay-
erage rate statement Is All old trick
of free traders with a large hole In
1t, and which was exploded many
years ago by Henry Clay and Dam
lei Webster. 1t is a fact that the
average rate of some of the free
trade tariff bills in force in this
country vas higher than the "
age rate of duty in some of the pro-
tectlye tariffs, but there never has
been a free trade tariff act that had
a higher rate of duty on those ar
ticles of manufacture which our
laboring men in this country pro-
duce. There is the difference be-
tween a Republican protective tariff
system and a democratic revenue
system. Under a protective system
a high rate is placed on all those
things which we produce at home
III sufficient quantities. while a low
rate is placed on all those things
which we cannot produce. Under
a democratic free trade tariff, the
high and low rate is reversed, the
low rate being on the articles pro-
duced at home and the high rate
being put on the articles which we
ship from abroad, thus keeping the
average rate of the tariff bill, as a
whole, as high or ever higher than
the average ate of a protective
tariff bill.
1t is this putting of low tariffs
on things We produce IN this coun
try that stops our factories, makes
tramps of our laboring men, and
depriyes them of the wages with
which to purchase the wheat, corn,
butter, eggs, and meat of the west
ern farmer. This is the reason, as
shown by the statistical report, that
there was 100, 600. 600 less bushels
of wheat consumed in the United
States iii 1895 than in 1891 when
the Mckinley bill was III force
under a Republican administration
Kelley says the average rate of
tariff in the Wilson bill is only
about ten per cent. lower than in
the Mckinley bill. Let us examine
these two tariff bills and see if there
is only u decrease of ten per cent in
the rate of those articles we pro-
duce to sell in this country. Bar
ley, corn, and oats, the decrease is

ami say there is almost al much

there was IN the Mckinley BILL
that the average rate is only ten
per cent lower. Let us gee how
Chey get an average of ten per cent.
Let rs compare these bills as TO the
class of goods where there has been
an increase in the ta-iff, goods
that we do not produce in paying
quantities. Sugar from 100 to 200
per cent increase ; chocolate, 800
per cent increase ; olives, 100 per
cent increase ; dates, 100 per cent
increase, and so on through the list.
Can't you see how they keep up a

olives.
