Four Years Only.

Special to the IndianapoIis JournaI.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-The Postoffice
Department is taking every occasion to en-
phasize the policy decided on three months
ago that tenure of Democratic postmasters
is four years from the date of original APP
pointment regardless of changes in the
classification of the offices within the four
years term. Democratic incumbents whose
offices have been raised from fourth-class to
getting this great fact drilled into them.
They insist on serving four years from the
date of their new commissions, and when
they are turned out after four years total
service they persist in caterwauling in a
most unbecoming fashion. But they go just
the same

Constituting the Tariff Law.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-The attention Of
officers of the customs has been called to
the fact that under the new tariff act the
term statuary includes only such statuary
as is cut carved otherwise wrought by
hand from a solid block or mass of marble,
stone or alabaster. or from metal. Under
this provision bronze statues or statuary is
dutiable at the rate of 45 per cent. ad
valorem under the section relating to manu-
features of metal, inas much as they cannot
be wrought by hand from solid blocks or
masses. Marble statues or statuary is du-
table at the rate of 20 per cent. ad valorem
except when they are intended for use in re-
ligious or secular schools, libraries ETC.,
when they are free of duty.
The secretary of the treasury has decided
that under the new tariff act drugs, etc,
which have been advanced from a strictly
crude or natural condition by refining,
grinding, cleansing or purifying process are
liable to duty without undergoing such con-
version as would bring them within the
purview of the term ''of manufacture"

castings of various kinds are turned
cut from the two cupoias every year.
In connection herewith is brass
foundry with an output of about 100, 900
pounds per year.
Next to the foundry is a cleaning
and chipping room. where all castings
are freed from sand and other debris
before entering the machine shop for
further finishing. Castings which do
not require any machine finishing are
weighed and taken direct through the
Shipping room.
1t is probably known 10 nearly every
hcdy who has been inside of a faun-
dry that to make casting it is neees-
sary to have a wooden model or
pattern which is founded in the
of the intended casting. After the pat
tern has been carefully removed and
the mold thoroughly prepared for cast
ting, the molten iron ar brass is run
into the cavity where 1t remains over
night until sufficiently cooled OFF The
preparation of the molds requires con-
siderable skill and care, and where the
castings are hollow or peculiarly shaped
cores have TO be made SEPARATELY and
laid into the molds. To describe the
core-making and the various other de-
tails connected with high-class mold
away from the subject il shall only
be mentioned that the patterns are
made in q separate shop, 80 by 50 feet
where force of skilled mechanics Is
employed. When not in use the pat
terms are stored away in fouf-story
building, 80 by 6 feet, used for this
purpose only. The value of pattern
stock represents many thousands of
dollars of labor and material. For
lifting heavy castings out Of the sand
and handling large patterns and TASKS
q huge electric crane of 10000 pounds
capacity is used. This crane travels on
an overhead track the full length and
width of the foundry and Is operated by

cages Two large trip-hammers, oper-
ated by steam. and more than a dozen
of forge fires are in constant use. For
heating extra heavy forgings a special
furnace is used. One corner of this
shop is occupied Ivy a nalf-dozen spe-
cial machines used for making bolts
and cutting the threads on them. Many
thousands of bolts and rods are turned
out here every year. Next in impor-
lance are the boiler shops. two in num-
Der. each about so by $50 feet. Like the
other shops, the great variety of work
must naturally impress the visitor.
Boilers, heaters, converters. heavy wat
er pipes, structural steel work for
building purposes and many peculiar
shaped sheet iron tanks are here spread
out over the floors. A number of
punches and shears are used for cut
ting the material the required size and
getting 1t ready fer rolling and riveting.
The rivetfng is accomplished by n.y.
draulic power, applied to a special ma
chine which is one of the most valua-
BILE and labor saving tools In the es-
adjustment. The working of this ma
chine can hardly be described with the
pen. but it is worth the Is minutes

WORK At THE FOUNDRY
Converting the Crude Metal Into
Modern Machinery.
AN IDEA OF ITS MAGNITUDE
All Kinds of Appliances Used in Mines
and Reduction Works MaEufac-
tured by This Large Home
Concern.

1t Is not generally known through
out the state of Montana that the larg-
est Western manufacturing plant for
mining machinery is located in the city
of Anaconda, 1T being a part of the
Anaconda Copper Mining company. An
idea of the magnitude of these works
may be gained when it is stated that
more than 300 mechanics are steadily
employed all the year around and
most of the time the shops are also
running nights. With the exception of
some extra heavy hosting engines.
pump and air compressors, all the
machinery used by the different de-
partments of the Anaconda Copper
Mining company in Anaconda as well
as in Butte, Belt and Hamilton, is
manufactured and furnished by the
foundry department. Besides this a
large outside trade Is supplied. The va
riety and amount of work turned out
by this immense plant is remarkable.
A great many people who never We're
inside of the shops have an idea that
on account of its name foundry only
castings are made, while the fact is,
there is hardly any character of mining,
milling. smelling and concentrating
machinery that is not made here. A
fair idea can be obtained by glancing
over a very complete catalogue issued
last July by the foundry This cata-
logue contains go pages, illustrated
throughout by a large number of en-
cravings. representing the various ma
chimes manufactured. also several
splendid reproductions of different
views of the Anaconda smelling works.
The location of the shops at the slop-
ing foothill is magnificent and pictur-
esquc, being on the south side of the
Butte. Anaconda and Pacific railway
tracks.
The foundry building proper, which
is the most prominent structure Of the
group, is located at the eastern end Of
