IN COPPER.

Coppe is attracting universal atten-
ton in business and mining circles. The
Herald Of yesterday explained briefly
the reason Of this. In another part OF
he same issue was q dispatch from
New York, in which the statistician of
the copper manufacturing industries
discussed the outlook for copper.
He is of the opinion that prices will
continue to rise and that there is not a
sufficient supply Of copper, according
to the present output OF the world, to
satisfy the demand. He also assigns
the electrical industry as an important
factor in the copper business, the needs
and extent Of which is growing very
rapidly.
He SAYS that wherever railway or
other construction is going on, there is
always a large demand for copper in
the form of brass and a variety of other
articles. And as the electrical business
advances by leaps and bounds. it is no
easy matter to tell what quantity Of
copper will in this way be absorbed"
It appears from the official figures
Of copper production in the United
States last year that there was an out
put from Montana, Lake Superior and
Arizona mining localities which eX-
ceeded that of 1897 by over 1900 tons.
The increase in the valuation of cop
per property was even greater in pro-
portion. Last year there was an in
crease of over 100 per cent in the stock

COMMON SENSE VIEWS.


Indications point TO an extra session
Of congress. This is the plan Of the
administration in the event Of serious
opposition TO the ratification OF the
peace treaty. From the remarks of
Representative Johnson Of Indiana
Wednesday in congress the opposition
is serious. It is made so by the absolute
refusal Of the president to outline a
policy in regard to the Philippines.
Senator Davis is alarmed at the atti-
tude Of Democratic and Republican
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES and has about de-
cided 10 withhold the treaty from final
consideration during the present SEES
sion.
With this prospect for az extra ses-
sion about the middle of March, a re-
newed effort on the part Of anti-Rob-
ests propagandists may be expected.
The persistence of IN religious bod
les of the east in adopting snti-Rob-
erts resolutions leads to much com
ment in the press. The Washington
Post, which has had a number of in
teligent editorials on the subject, now
makes another contribution to the lit
erature Of the case. The Post says:

THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.

By their ballots last November the
people of Utah declared in favor of a
Democrat to succeed Senator Cannon.
They virtually elected a Democrat to
the United States s~enatorship when
they elected the present legislature.
As nearly as they could do it they
voted for a bona fde member of the
Democratic party to have that posi-
ton.
Behind this legislature is a Demo-
cratic plurality in the state of some
thing like 5000 votes.
There is no better way of ascertain
ing what the people want than by re-
ferring to the election returns.
Men and women may sign petitions,
kilograms or commendatory letters
without giving the matter much con-
sideration.
But they are serious and deliberate
when they vote-especially under the
Australian ballot system.
When they gave the Democratic
party a two-thirds majority in the
state legislature over Republicans and
f~usionists the people of Utah spoke in
no uncertain one
The Democratic member. elected as
such, VINO d~isregards that obligation
expressed through the ballot box, de-
fes and deserts his constituents.
individuals may have their prefer
ences: the people. however, have only
expressed Il choice. They lave i'm
posed but one obligation upon the ma
jority in the third state legislature, and
that is the election of a Democratic
United States senator.
When men and women are satisfied
that they have done their duty in the
fulnllment of personal pledges they
should reflect that, after all, the only
requirement Of the popular vote in
Utah last November was the election
OF g Democrat to succeed Senator
Cannon.
In their adherence to personal pref
erence members should not forget their
obligation to the party and the state.
They should become blinded by
pique or prejudice to the fact that
upon the Democratic party with its i'm
mense majority, with its two-thirds of
the legislature, rests the entire respon-
sibility for this election.

Mr.. John c. Watson, a Boston nnan-
cier, in a recent interview touching
upon the outlook for copper, said:
I'VE are face to face with a tremen-
dous problem in the adjustment OF the
balance between supply and demand
The visible supply OF the metal abroad
has been reduced to an absolutely nor
NAL amount, while III this country cop
per is held altogether by the producer
al The mine, the middleman and the
consumer being bare of stocks. II Is
for this reason that the lake companies
are shipping copper by rail since the
close OF navigation, an action almost
unprecedented in the history Of Lake
Superior mining, and it is for this rea-
son also that the price Of CoOeT has
advanced across 10 cents a pound, and
| anticipate that it Will be at 10 cents
or better shortly. During the past V
years copper has been kept from SELL
ing at S cents g pound only by the large
and steady demand from abroad, while
within the last year or so there has
been an increasing HON c~onsun10tion
added to this, and today the demand
from both sources is growing greater
ana greater. until it is & serious ques-
tion how production can keep pace with
consumption. The Increase IN the home
demand is legitimate and is based on
the general prosperity of the country,
which has led to an expansion in the
lines of trade in which this metal is a
staple. The application of electricity to
the affairs Of life throughout the our
try has made, and is making, enormous
progress. The activity in the shipping
world, where governmental and private
enterprise calls for tremendous opera
tions III building and eduipping vessels
OF every kind, and the increased use of
this metal in building. characterization,
manufacture, etc, have all made de-
mands upon the productive capacity Of
the present American copper mines and
led to the current shortage"
English newspapers hold that a SINH
lar increase in the demand for cooper
exists in Great Britain, and for similar
reasons. One London newspaper said
recently thai the claim thai North
America could flood the European mar
ket with copper at any time is as weak
and. unfounded as is hat dumping
ground for silver story of the gold
bugs.
Another says: 1T MAJ be doubted if
North America has anything like as
much copper available for export as
was believed. and there has to be
brought into the calculation the ire
mendous increase IN the demand there,
which tends to grow in all directions.
especially when the American ship
building programme is taken into con-
sideration. There seems, in fact, no
reason to doubt that the operation from
natural causes may still further i'm
prove the copper market, without the
e%Xtraneous assistance Of any trusts or
combinations"
y consensus Of the opinion of leading
mining men, manufacturers and capt.
talists indicates that the outlook for
copper is highly encouraging.
