A Copper Experts View.

Capt. w. E. Parnall, we'll known a,
 tue superintendent of some of ths
 'argest producing copper mines ID the
 world, arrived in Globe last Thursday
 accompanied by his wife and daughter,
 for the purpose of l.sing present at the
 marriage cf Supt s. A. Parnall, his
 son. to Miss Lauriette E. Coombs, which took place this morning. This
 Is the first visit of Capt. Parnali to
 this territory, and except for the fact
 that his presence is constantly re.
 quired in the conGuct of the imm~nss
 properties of which he is the executive
 head he would remain long enough to
 make an extended examination of our
 mineral resuui ces.
 Everyone kuows of the famous Tam. arack copper mine, which is the larg. est of gronp consisting of the Tam. arack. kes'sage and Tamarack, Jr., comprising the Osceola Consolidated, the Grand Portage, Isle Royal, Huron and Miners, being known as the Isle Royal Consolidated. Without mention. Ing the miles of cross. cutting and drifting. the Tamarack workings baye reached the enormous depth of 46OO feet, the shaft being in ore aud Indicating that at depth of about oooo feet tue main body will be en-. countcrsd. A fact not generally known is that in connection with these mines are extensive plants for the msnutac- ture of copper wire and rolled copper plates. greatly increasing tue value of ores which run 60 per cent. and be. Cause of their richness may almost be said to convert a smeltsr into simple meiter.
 Iu speaking of the copper situation Capt. ParnaIl expressed his belief in the permaneucy of the present price. subject to slight depreciation which he "as confident would never reach the l"w price of year ago. His niues are worked to their fnll capacity aud are not able to keep up with the demand. He emphatically stated that lhe present copper value was regulated by the economic law of supply and de- nand snd was not dns to tue workings 'f any trust or com mliuation of trusts.
 Perhaps no better judge of the cop. per situation could he found than this | Michigan expert, whose whole life has been dseoted to the business, and it Is i if more than passing interest that he 'honld say copper men all over the | United States are looking to Arizona ,s natnse's reserve store of this metal. | It confirms the judgment of those pioneers who with nutiriug energy nave worked their discoveries. ns we'll ,s those who in more recent years nave Lad wisdom enough to invest heir capital. Capt. Parusll left this we'll pleased with his visit.
