The Engineering and Mining
Journal of June 9th will publish
the full tables ofmineral and metal
production of the United States in
1899 as prepared for the Mineral
Industry" Volume VIII. This
production, valued at the mines or
furnaces, amounted to Sl,2ll, ,36J,-
S61, the largest amount ON record
for the United States or any other
country. Deducting certain neces-
sary Implications, the net value of
the mineral production in 1899 was
$1,119, ,780,S $50, against S799, SIS, S,033
in 1898, showing an increase last
year of S319, ,292, ,797, or 39.9 per
cent. This great amount came
partly from the increase in quanti-
ties and partly from general adj
vances in values. The United
States last year was the greatest
producer of coal, salt, iron, copper,
silver and lead in the world; also
of many Of the less important
metals and minerals. The extent
of our production is shown by the
figures, which include 252,115,3S7
short tons of coal, 13,4O0,735 long
tons of pig iron, 5S1, 1,319,091 pounds
of copper, 2l7085 tons of lead,
1868 tons of zinc, 57,126,S34
ounces of silver, and S70,096,021 in
gold.

Kansas has made another record.
Not content with plastering the
walls of her State buildings with
cancelled mortgages; not content
with doubling her bank deposits
since 1886; Kansas now has but
one inmate in the State poor farm.
Dining-halls and bedrooms that a
few years ago were crowded with
the idle, with the hungry, and with
the poorly clad, now echo and re-
echo the solitary tramp of their one
sole inmate, who is without kith or
kin and who is too old and feeble
to work. But one sad relic re-
mains in the Kansas poor-house,
to remind the taxpayers of the
days when its free soup, free bed
and free clothes were donated to
those who were compelled to idle
ness under q Democratic Admins
tration, and under its policy of de-
struction to all American indus
tries, both of farm and factory.

the end that we find out as much

nativity, how often we marry,
whether we own our own home or
pay rent, and a few little things
like that. And in addition the
