President Mckinley has nominated William A RuOlee, one of the editors of the MllwsuKes Sentinel, to be con .ul general of the United States at ioug Kong, to succeed RouDseville Wlldman, n victim of the Rio de Ja- neiro disaster.
 In the senate, Senator Allen of Neb raska violently attacked Rear Admiral Sampson, calling him an 'arrant cow ard' and 'conceited ass. The lnci- dent occurred during the considera- tlon of the army appropriation bill, when Allen read letter purportiug to have been sen by Chief Gunner Chas. Morgan, of the navy to Rear Admiral sampson. requesting him to forward to the navy department his application for promotion to the rank of ensign. The admiral, in his endorsement, had said that, while he recognized Gunner Morgan's technical and professional ability, he was opposed to appointing warrant officers to .he grade of ensign hecanse they had not enjoyed the so- cial advantages which, Admiral Samp. son held. commissioned officer of the navy should have enjoyed so that he might represent, properly, bis country in foreign countries particularly.

erty, tne following statements are taken from circular recently issued by him which show a conservative and business strain seldom adopted by any eastern promoter, Mir. Thompson absolutely relies on facts, and facts alone, to reach the goal sought. He says:
 "Ihe properties consisting of ten claims are located at Metcalf, seven miles north of Clifton, Arizona. the terminus of the Arizona X New Mex leo railroad and adjacent to the pro ducing properties of the Arizona Cop per company and near the Detroit Copper company's mines.
 From the shannon mine 10000 tons of oxide ore averaging 17.5 per cent have been shipped.
 Twenty thousand tons of oxide and sulphide ore assaying per cent cop per have beeu mined and are on the dumps ready for treatment.
 ''Three hundred thousand tons of ore assaying 4,5 per cent copper and DO, 900 tons of ore assaying 10 per cent copper are now blocked out.
 '' he development work on the property consists of $500 feet of tun- nels, crosscuts, drifGs, winzes and up- raises, of which over 3,200 feet are in pay ore wlth an average assay value of over 4,5 per cent copper. During the past year the company has ex- pended over forty thousand dollars in developing the property.
 There are at present over 90 men employed on the shannon and other claims further developing ore bodies, driving tunnels, etc., at the rate of 900 feet month.
 Plans are now being prepared for a l00to concentrdtor and a 100 ton smeiter upon which work was started February l, 1901, and will be com pleted within the year. The money is now in the treasury for purchasing and erecting this plant.
 'Mr. John A. Church, E. M., II William street, New York City, in September of this year, made an eX- haustive report upon the property, wherein he confirmed the statement made in the prospectus issued by the shannon Copper company, July l, 1900.
 ''lie reported over 100000 tons of ore blocked out assayiug IA per cent copper. He says: The shannon is a ine mine and Mir. Climo the mining superintendent has developed it with good judgment
 There are three ore bodies of large dimensions iu the mine, as large prob ably as those of other mines in the dis trict with one exception, the largest known being 100 feet thick The grade of the shannon appears to be the same as in the other mines and its composition is more favorable for u @ furnace than any other l saw. The other companies make money and l sec nothing iu the ore of it's quantity to preclude profit from the ShannOn.'
 The other mines in the district re- ferred to by Mir. Church are those of the Arizona Copper company and the Detroit Copper company. The former shipped during the gear 1899, 19,072.- OO0 pounds of copper and made net profit of over Sl,500,000, and the lat ter shipped 1906, 250 pounds of cop per with presumably profits in pro- portion.
 Since Mir. Church made his report, over 1000 feet of development has been done further opening up the ore bodies and materially increasing the tonnage and value of the e."-- Western Mining World, Nov. 21st.

The shannon Copper Company

Or all the recent fiotations of cop per companies on the Boston and New York markets, none have reached a mure enviable position among the legitimate enterprises than the Shan non Copper company, promoted by Mir. William E. thompson of Butte, Montana. MT. Thompson is entirely Butte product and has always been identified with the mining industry of the state. He knows mining from top to bottom and is therefore ln position to handle such matters in business like manner. Mir Thompson's po- sition is that of mining, not mere stock jobber and manipulator, such as Is a great majority of the eastern brokers. This is proven by the able, conservative way in which the Shan. non company is being managed. There is no boom about it, but on the other hand, the property is actually being developed into great mine.
 As an instance of the real business methods employed by MT. Thomp- son in calling attention to this prop.

ROUGH RIDING TEMPER.

The thing about Mr.. Mckinley that
gave him power and the confidence of the
people in his judgment was that in re-
markable degree he possessed equipoise.
He did not hurry, he was not excitable,
he did not show irritation, he did not
scold. Mr.. Roosevelt is the opposite. A
special from Washington gives this in
cident:
President Roosevelt, after waiting
half an hour for his carriage, came some
what excitedly through the corridors OF
the White House this afternoon, pro-
claiming that such thing would not
occur again. Clad in Norfolk jacket,
corduroy knickerbockers, yellow leather
leggins and rough rider hat, turned up
at the side. such as he used to wear in
war days, he looked veritable rough
rider. He clabbered into Secretary Cor
telyous Government carriage and start
ed to meet friend on the outskirts OF
the city with whom he had an appoint
ment for a cross country walk.
ITO Roosevelt it is objectionable to
keep one waiting. AS he emerged from
and realizing that his excited manner
was the cause of their furry merry
twinkle shone from his eye as he look
ed from the carriage window. He re-
turned, however, in good humor.'
There is something about such an in
cident that makes one feel that it is not
in keeping with the position of the Pres
dent of the Republic.

like this commission. 1t says in one SEN
tence that the farmers are too conserva-
tive and do, not adapt themselves readily
to changed conditions, while in another
sentence it condemns the farmers for
undertaking cultivation of new crops
without sufficient forethought. There is
blame enough placed on the Woodworking
farmer because he does not prosper, but
the report is silent about the robbery
of the high tariff which imposes heavy
taxes on cotton bagging and ties, agri-
cultural implements, and everything else
he must have in the cultivation of his
crops In one place we are told that
there is ''too much good and cheap
labor in the South" while in another
place there is the statement that the
"inefficiency of negro labor is the cause
of agricultural depression.
The. people will have to pay for print
ing such stuff. 1t would be fortunate if
the whole thing could be thrown into the
ocean and the cost of printing saved.
That commission is the monumental
humbug of the age if taken seriously
it is too ponderously dull and expensive
to be funny.

sumo II as an average crop and that the
number OF acres in round numbers is all
OF 26,ooO,0OO, 900, there would be a crop of
S,ioo,ooO bales, or nearly 100000 less
than Neill has it.
Unless the crop throughout the South
mas been generally greatly underestimate
ed a crop of 10000, 600 bales would seem
to be the outside limit of the cotton pro-
duction for this year.
III this county is to be taken as an
average, SO far as condition is concerned,
it is difficult to so how the crop can be a
bale larger.
1t is an undeniable fact that the major
ity of the farmers even now believe that
the crop is below the average In short.
the dispute is whether it CAM come up
with the average.
If the Southerner had several guesses
to make on the crop, all the figures would
between nine and ten million bales with
cluster around 9,75O.OOO.

CANNOT STAND "REFORM

1t will be interesting to see how
Mayor Low reconciles purified Gotham
with Sunday beer. If he is not able to
meet the wishes of those who desire al
coholic refreshments on the Sabbath his
reform administration will possibly be
followed by a Tammany victory, and
another period of vice and crime" as
the more vehement reformers describe
Tammany's regime. The New York
Press, a stalwart Republican journal,
intimates that when Mr.. Low was May
or of Brooklyn some years ago no resi-
dent of that moral city was compelled
to remain dry on Sunday, while at the
same time those who believed in closing
the saloons on the Sabbath were salts
fled with the decorum which prevailed
in the City of Churches How Mr.. Low
performed this miracle our New York
contemporary does not explain. If he is
as successful in satisfying the wants OF
the Greater New Workers as he was in
providing for the needs of the Brooklyn
ties he will be the marvel of the TWEEN
tieth century. 1t is sad to think, how
ever, that the reform wave which swept
over Gotham last week was diluted with
Sunday beer. But that seems to be the
way of Gotham. 1t cannot take it's re-
form straight.

MISLEADING COMPARISONS.

MISLEADING COMPARISONS.
Baltimore Sun.
Alta recent meeting in furtherance of
southern education, Mr.. r. c. Ogden,
President of the Southern Educational
Conference, stated that 1000 year is
to be expended for the next two Years
to promote the education of the whii,,
and colOred races in the South. The
money is not to go to particular insti-
buttons, but to preach the need of edu-
catioI-to create a wider interest in the
subject. The popular ideal of educa-
ton, it is assumed, needs development.
DR.. Dabney, of Tennessee, speaking of
the inadequacy of the schools for both
white and black in the south, said that
the average number of days the schools
are kept is only 100 year, the average
pay of teachers $15S a year, the expen-
dture per capita only $L34, and the ex-
penditure per pupil only 1912 In North
Carolina only 80 per cent of the child
rem are in daily attendance upon the
schools. The amount expended per year
for each pupil is only $4.34, or 81 cents
per capita of the States population. In
Tennessee enrolled pupils attend an av-
cId6C VI ouiy 20 udyS III the year,
teachers receive but $134 year. All this
he ascribed to the deporable poverty Of
the south and an enfeebled sense of the
Importance of public education. 1t is
hardly to be held, however, that in
States like South Carolina the white
minority with difficulty able to educate
themselves, shall DE expected to educate
lavishly with their small means color
ed majority. The thing is desirable on
general principles-though the educa-
tional needs and capabilities of the races
are unequal-but is clearly impracti-
cable. The failure to recognize this fact
vitiates most of the statistics produced
on the subject. Comparisons between
Ohio, with small NEGRO population and
in the section favored by the Federal
Government, and North Carolina and
Tennessee ARE misleading. North Caro-
lima and Tennessee have done nobly in
the cause of education. 1t can hardly
be expected that a small number of
whites impoverished by the destruction
of property recognized in the Federal
Constitution, will bear not only their
own burden but also the additional bur-
den thrust on them, largely by Ohio,
some thirty-five years ago. If substan-
tial justice were done to them they
achievements in the field of education.
The work of the conference deserves the
largest success.

mo TARIFF TINKERING. .

'"There will be no tinkering with the
tariff this winter, writes Walter Well
man to the Chicago Record Herald That

80 far as the West is concerned, in
the great States of Indiana, Illinois,
Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin and Mime

Republican strength and hope it be-
hooves the so-called leaders of the party
to take heed to it's demand for recipro-
city and tariff revision.
1--WE are told that the extreme
protectionists think it better poll
tics to permit the demand for re-
vision to gather a little more and then
to enter upon revision Just in time to
get the benefit thereof at the presiden-
tial election. They seem to forget that

The trust magnates who put up the
money for the Republican campaign fund
in 1896 and in 1900, do not propose to
give up the "swag' they bought and paid
for. They know that tariff tinkering, "
a name they have employed to deride low
taxes. is trust tinkering, and must re-

And that is why the decree mo tariff

the Republican party is in power, the
