eratiOns last week after two mill
ions of dollars had been expended
in development of the mines, in the
erection of the big smelter and con-
struction of an electric railroad
from the terminus at Mackay up
the side of White Knob mountain
to the mine. In all, 10000 feet OF
tunneling and 700 feet of shafting
had been done on the property,
and smelter with capacity for
treating 600 tons OF ore per day
was erected. The cause Of the shut
down is credited to the copper
trust, which has been knocking
the Seven Devils and other copper
camps for 30 many years. And
still our strenuous president says
trusts are good things when han
died by good men acting on good
intentions. A good trust, like a
strenuous president, is good deal

Dewey says that Aguinaldo, the

only for what loot he could get out
OF it. And yet, knowing this,
Dewey furnished him arms and am
munition and treated him as an
ally. Moreover, Aguinaldo was
brought from Hong Kong to
Manila in a U. S. dispatch boa to
cooperate with Dewey in the seige
OF Manila. The straight OF the
matter is that Aguinaldo is not
half SO bad as half the people who
villify him. Had it not been for
the presence of Aguinaldo and his
Filipino insurgents Dewey would
never have captured Manila, as his
own testimony shows. The Span
ish commander was more afraid of

was of Dewey. The Filipino "in-

THE STREET FAIR

1T seems to be generally under

thing to have in it, way, b ut We

get together in public meeting and
decide finally just what they pro-
pose to da in the matt.r. There 10
much to be done, aud not great
deal of time to do it in. The dates
and the premiums to be aw arded
should be given the earliest and
widest publicity in order that our
friends in the rural districts may
be getting themselves in readiness
to prepare their exhibits. The
berry and cherry crops arc now
here, and il premiums are to be
offered for the best preserved spe-
cimens the fact cannot be an
nounced too soon while the fruits
are in condition to be preserv ed for
exhibition. People will 60 TO the
trouble and expense OF preserving
particularly fine specimens Of the
choicest products Of their farms
and orchards and gardens for these
occasions not for the small amount
of the premium prize to be gained,
but for the glory and honor Of it,
and for the benefit Of the county at
large. This feeling among our
people should be encouraged, and
the choicest exhibits should be kept
for exhibition at the great st. Louis
fair in 1904. The expense is slight,
and the success which attended
our street fair last year should be
sufficient inducement and incent'
i've to 60 ahead with another dur
ing this present period. L ct nj
have a street fair, and let us meet
