Rich Copper Discovery Near Reno

Rich Copper discovery NeaF fseho
J. 81. Brown. mining engineer, has
made q great discovery OF ledge Of
copper ore that is thirty feet wide. and
the groupings can be traced for 5000
feet In length. This ledge is within n
miles OF Reno and good wagon road
running over the mine. There have
been a number of tests and assays made
of the ore, with an average OF 10 per
cent copper, 81 20 in gold and IL J-lO
ounces In silver.
This makes the outlook for this prop
erty very bright and promising In the
near future, for 1t is so near the reduc-
tion works, There are approximately
about 20, 600 tons in sight which can oe
mined and reduced for So per ton, leav-
ing the owners handsome profit, says
the Gazette.

Natural gas.

In each case a large part of the prof
made in selling gas to private consumers
is absorbed in supplying gas for lighting
streets and public buildings.
In Alexandria, Va, when the municipaI
gas works were established in 1891, tho
price was SO per thousand feet.
In Wheeling, w Va, the low price of Il
cents per thousand feet is due to the cheap
ness OF coal.
In Hamilton, O., the city is the COM
petitor OF a private company, which charges
10 cents per thousand, having come down
from SO in 1890.
In Louisville, KY, where the price of gas
is Sl,3O per thousand, the city owns stock
in the private company TO the amount of
1925, 900 out OF a total OF SO, 500, 900.
Holyoke and Westfeld, Mass, have both
voted TO establish municipal gas works.
In Great Britain SO. % per cent of all gas
burned in 1897 was sold by municipalities,
and the number Of municipal companies in
creased from l4S in 1882 to 2Os in 1897.
Outside Of London one-half the gas is fur
nished by municipalities. The average
price for a thousand feet In Great Britain.
taking the figures OF both municipal and
private companies, is less than rs cents.
while Great Britain burns in a year four
times as much gas per capita as the United
States.

TabOr's Early Days.

When pixies Peak or Bust" was The des-
t~ination and the motto of the pioneers Ia
Dor was r%ustling for a scant living on the
prairies of Kansas. Becoming weary of the
struggle, he hit2hed a pair OF oxen to a
prairie schooner and started for Cherry
creek, where Denver now stanls, and struck
California gulch in April, 1860. 1t was the
most attractive region for gold mining and
Tabor and his wife camped there. His ex-
perlences We're the same as other miners.
He dug gravel, threw it into the sluice day
after day and in the evening cleaned up and
counted his gains. At the end OF the sea-
son he had s., 900 to the good, which was
TO him a fair fortune. In the fall the frost
ana the SHOWS came and op l~rations were
suspended, but he was not idle. He bought
a stock OF groceries and opened a store to
supply the wants OF others, who. like him
sell, were stranded in the hills remote from
the sources Of supply. When summer came
again he resumed his operations in the
mines and at the end of that season he had
$4,000 as the harvest of two years OF toll.
While Mr.. Tabor was willing and able TO
work, his prescience was no greater than
that OF other men about him, and. like
them, he failed to fully estimate the wealth
that was concealed beneath his feet. Cali

a merchant though always with an eye on

Aid and Comfort to the Enemy,
ON the New York Times

The anti-imperiaIist campaign at home
has fortified the Filipinos in their resist
ance to our troops and our authority. The
nents of the administration policy have
been eagerly seized on and skiifuIIy en-
ployed by Aguinaldo's agents to create the
belief among his followers that If they keep
up the fighting d little while longer harass
our troops constantly and kill as many of
them as possible they will attain the OBJ
3ects of the war and their independence
through the effect of the rising anger of
the American people in compelling the ad-
ministration to withdraw it's forces and
grant the native demands
1t is no longer possible to doubt the truth
of this charge against the anti-imperialists
1t leads them to believe that the greater
part of the American people look upon the
war as unprovoked, that our army and
navy are unsupported. and on the demand
of the people will shortly be withdrawn
From Admiral Dewey down our officers de-
plore the giving of this substantial aid and
comfort to the enemy by our own people.

VIII give their firm support to his policy of
restoring order and fulfilling our national
obligations in the Philippines. He must
endure the criticisms of those who dissent
and overcome the embarra ssments they
cause He is not the first President to be
thus vexed. Madison, Polk and Lincoln
carried on wars that were called wicked
by considerable part of the people, and
carried them on successfully.

Tn. Luzon Insurgents Encouraged.

Reliable reports from Manila state that
the insurgent leaders are greatly encour-
aged by the withdrawal of the volunteer
troops selected for immediate return to the
United States. viewing il as a sign that this
country is firing Of its bargain and prepar-
ing to abandon the islands. Here is very
convincing evidence of the disloyal folly of
those who a few weeks ago were clamoring
for the President TO bring the volunteers
back TO the United States Immediately upon
the signing of the peace treaty. Had this
demand been complied with the position OF
the government in the Philippines would
have been precarious indeed. The insur-
gent generals would have had good reason
to declare To their followers that they had
frightened the Americans away and that
independence was at hand. There can be
no estimate Of the damage which such a
misunderstanding would have caused. The
campaign has been hard enough as it IS,
and filed with sufficiently embarrassing
problems. without the genuine danger which
Sould have resulted from palpable an
5Fitation to the rebels to redouble their
jDersies. The fun measure of Mr.. Edward

ticipaton over the coming of Dreyfus and
the air is filed with rumors as to his safety
the manner of his reception, the probability
Oh his Imprisonment in a cell, the possibili-
ty of riots at Rennes and the like. Extra
bars are being placed over the windows of
a cell said to be designed for the celebrated
prisoner and there is at once a great howl
from the Dreyfusards that the captain is
treated as prisoner, whereas under the
terms of the courts order of revision he is
only accused of crime. This controversy
is futile. The fact is that 1t is for the
safety of the officer that he should be con-
fined behind bars, for 1t might well be
feared that If ne were to be allowed to
walk at liberty the frenzied mob of pa
triouc leaguers and the radical anti-semites
would harm him.
The world awaits the re-trial with eager
ness. 1t is apparently the general expec-
tation that Dreyfus will be acquitted The
forSertes which have already been dis
closed suffice to cast the most serious doubt
upon the charge against him. The general
understanding outside of France seems to
be that the only question yet to be settled
Is whether the government will proceed
against the officers believed to have been
involved in the conspiracy to convict Drey-
fus and to keep the public ignorant of his
innocence and of the guilt of some one else.

Mr.. PETERS CircumIocution.

Ex-senator PETER denies now that he
said he had turned from the populist to
the republican party. He affirms that what
he did say, and now says, is that the popu-
list party is a cipher as a factor in ma
tional politics. for all practical purposes
having been swallowed by the democratic
party; that as between the democratic and
the republican parties he has always been
against the former; that, believing that the
contests of the future will be virtually be
tween these two parties, he expects to do
all he honorably can to keep the demo-
cratic party out of power, and that he is
in favor of national expansion. This is
merely a longer way of saying that the
populist party is dead and that henceforth
Mr.. PETER will strive, as would any other
republican, to defeat the democracy. He
insists that he did not say that he had
left the populist party. Perhaps that is
strictly true. Rather has the populst party
left him in its recession. 1t has left a good

banks of their old political aIlegiances.

The Trust-Hunt for m Mother

To paraphrase an aphorism, when the
Trusts fall out as to their maternal cause
the truth is sure to prevail. For now comes
the Beet Sugar Trust, as big in its way as
is the other Sugar Trust, and declares
through its chosen voice-so often heard as
to be unmistakabie-that the protective
tariff system is not the mother of the
Trusts; that Mr., Havemeyer Is wrong in his
parentage claim; that the Sugar Trust In
fact gets a larger protection than Mr..
Havemeyer asserted, and that the true
origin OF Trusts is keen and losing competi-
ton in business. Mr., Oxnard doubtless
knows what has caused the formation of
Trusts in the sweet stuffs. He Is well
versed In sugar history. He says that, ac-
cording to the cost of refined sugar, that
commodity enjoys protection to the extent
Of 80 per cent. This is matter for the
tariff and trade experts to figure out It
does not bear upon the main point Of con-
troyersy between Mr.. Oxnard and Mr.
Hayemeyer as to the parentage of the
Trusts. Mr.. Oxnard himself is only partly
accurate In his declaration. He aseribes
the Trusts to the institution OF keen and
killing competition In business That 1t IN
