What has been the total loss Of the oper.
ated quartz mines in California during
the period OF their operation from a similar
avoidable cause would make an interesting
computation tor some patient investigator.
In unwaterng the copper mines at
CorperopolS 1t has been discovered that
all tn. rails and the workmen'S tools left
in the works when abandoned over thirty
wears ago have, through a well known
chemical process, been since transmitted
into copper. The incident proves that
there is an avoidable loss in every gallon
of the drainage OF these mines that Is al.
lowed to escape without being subjected to
a very simple treatment which was dis.
covered after these mines were closed
down and which when applied to the
drainage OF the big copper mines oi Mon.
tana proved a large source Of revenue
to the owner. In future 1t is more than
likely that much Of the profit Of mining in
California will come from processes ap.
piled to prevent avoidable losses Of the
mineral contained IN the ores worked

We, the editor, returned from our east

welding the paste brush and scissors in

say that we had most enjoyable trip,

be OF interest to the readers of the

For the benefit of any of our friends
who might have been worried in our
behalf by the notice which appeared in
the last issue of this paper, we will state
that to the best OF our knowledge we
were neither 'lost, strayed, nor stol-
en-, i" and escaped successfully even from
the 'slums of Cherry Creek, which we
would never have known TO exist, ex-
cept for the base accusation OF our cor
respondent there at the time of our de-
parture. Prosperity is beginning to
shine on our sister camp and her busi-
ness men are feeling considerably en-
eouraged as to the future, as more
money goes into circulation with each
payday at the Star, where over hun
dred men are at work. We only re-
greet that lack OF time prevented us
from making longer stay, where our
welcome was so cordial.

him IN his own party has increased
from thirty to fifty-fve, which renders
his defeat almost certain. Irving Nj.

Camp, January Goth, that the casual
ties among the off GERS OF the Fifth Div
ision and mounted brigade at Spion
Kop, January "a, were: Killed, %;

Great anxiety has been removed by
the announcement that Lord Dundon-

The above is the latest from English
sources with regard to their ignomin-
ious defeat at Spion Kop and retreat
across the Tugela. An account Of the
engagement from the Boer camp, how
ever, has reached tho outside world via
Lorenzo Marquee. 1t places the num-
Der of British dead left on the battle
field at 1,50O. According to this re-
port the Boer attacking force displayed
the greatest bravery, advancing up the
hill in three divisions in the face of a
heavy rifle and Maxim fire. Their ad-
vance was stubbornly contested but
was irresistible, and the English finally
threw up their arms and rushed out of
the trenches. One hundred and fifty
men in the front trenches surrendered.

in one country alone are pining in their

THE sH1PPTNe BILL
TFrom the St PAM Disnatch l

IFrOm the st. Paul Dispatchl
The east has not yet learned that
there is a west. With a near-sighted
vision bounded by the sky line of the
Atlantic, it has only vaguely known
that there is a Pacific It has Dlaced
that ocean on the other side of the
globe and not realized that the Pacific
washes the west coast line of the con-
tinent, that the Pacific is the ocean
OF the future, that the west is to be
America
For this limitation of vision the east
should pay the penalty of losing the
legislation embodied in the Hanna
Payne shipping bill. The discussion of
the provisions of this bill by James J.
HlH before the state agricultural So
clety is, in every consideration worthy
OF the attention of every farmer of the
country whether he be a wheat farmer
OF the Northwest and farthest west
a cattle farmer of the west, or a cotton
farmer of the south The representa-
tfves from these sections have been
making It known in Washington during
the past week that the west will not
stand by the east in passing this meas
ure unless the east stands by the west
IN so shaping the bill that it guards
the interests of the American people
ship builders
This shipping bill provides for the
payment OF 100000 annually in sub
ysidies, for a period of ten years. to
american vessels, sailing to and from
foreign ports. The subsidy is to be paid
on basis of rate of speed and tonnage
measurements. For ships of fourteen
knots speed, the bonus is one cent a
ton for each 100 miles; for ships of q
knots, 10 cents a ton. The promoters
seek to give it a plausible appearance
IN the eyes of those who consider VIVA
the ship carries, and not its speed nv
saying that without paying cargoes the
shipowners could not make the VOYAGE:
that a cargo is indisDensa BILE Csra1fo,7
it is, there is yet not restriction as tn
whether people or pork should be car
ried to achieve a profit Another pro-
vision is that the ships built and used
for these purposes should be capable OF
naval use in time of need and could
be taken at any time by the United
States for that purpsoe. In other words
this fleet Of vessels is to be an auxiliary
fleet OF cruisers; and the American
navy never tolerates a slow boat. Wit
ness her building of cruisers and aban-
4onment of battleship building.
What will result? A feet of passen-
