He stood up in the center of the ring
and bowed gracefully as seasick ele-

The Englishman swung his right

One might Judge, from the alIuSion to
the mines smelling copper outside the
State, that he bill was aimed more par
ticularly at the Calumet and Hecla; II
that is so the promoters Of the bill should
remember il would strike the smaller
mines as well as the richer and that, al
though the tax does not appear much
per ton, yet in the aggregate il would
amount to a great deal. particularly to
the smaller mines.
The News interviewed Mr.. Madill, the

appes rs to be very fairminded. and stattd
be did not wish to do anything TO dis
courage any industry in the State. but he
and his friend appear TO think that the

that it is therefore only proper that the
