The copper era. (Clifton, Graham County, Ariz.) 1899-1911, 1902-09-25

THE ERA prints this week the plat
form adopted by the republicans in
their territorial convention at Pboe-
nix last week. The issue is now clear
ly drawn between the two great par
ties in this territory. Read the two
platforms and compare them carefully.
The democratic platform is the plat
form OF the people, and as the demo
cratic party is the friend of the work
ing man, it will be seen that his interest
have been carefully looked after. EThe
republican platform is framed in the
interest of the railroads and capitalists.
Cut the two platforms out and paste
them side by side, then study them
carefully and keep them for future

THE most important Office for the
tax payer is that Of supervisor.
Tho democrats used good judgment in
selecting Ira Harper and Eugene Ca
ruthers for these important positions. .
Mr. Harper has served as supervisor
for the past two years, which ex-
perience is worth much to the tax pay
crs. Mr.. Caruthcrs is a fine business
man and we'll qualified for the position.
The affairs of the county will be safe
in their hands.

THE closing down OF the United
Verde at Jerome has lessened the cop
per supply Zoo, 900 pounds per month,
while the closing down OF the Old
Dominion at Globe has probably lesen-
ed it TO half that amount, though it
has been stated that Globe was pro-
ducing 100000 pounds per month,
which probably included the output OF
the Black Warrior, which has been
closed down for some months. The
output of the Clifton Morenci district
is steadily increasing. 1t has almost
doubled within the last two years and
will again be materially increased as
soon "a the baby gauge road to Met
calf shall have been widened to a Be-
inch gauge which will enable the a.
G. company TO bring down a sufficient
amount OF ore to keep their five smelt-
ing furnaces running. The Shannon
company expect TO have their new 300
ton concentrating plant in operation
within four or five months, which will
also materially increase the output OF
copper in the district. During the
past two wears the ID. G. company have
made many improvements TO their
and smelling plant and
are therefore outputting much more

ments were made. With cheaper fuel

Two weeks ago the ERA received an
article from the Commercial Club OF
Stafford in regard to removal and
division. The article was put in type,
as was also an article from the
Bulletin in regard to the present court
house. When the paper was being
made up it was thought advisable to
put the following over the article
from the Stafford Commercial Club, as
it appeared in the form of local:
The following article was forwarded
to the ERA by the Stafford Commercial
Club, with the request that it be pub
lished.
This was inadvertently slipped in
oyer the article from the Bulletin in
stead Of the article from the Stafford
Commercial Club, and the error was
not noticed until after the edition had
been run off. OF course the error was
an injustice to the Commercial Club,
still we do not think that the Guar
dian was justified in printing such
scathing and insiEuating editorial in
reply thereto. The ERA has been abb
solutcly fair in this matter. 1t has
always been favorable to division, and
against removal to Stafford. The ERA
is printed in the east end of the coun-
~, and it will at all timos advocate
measures which it considers beneficial
to this section. The Guardians in
situation that tho ERA is controlled
by merccnary motives is contemplate,
because no one knows better than the
editor of the Guardian that the ERA'S
editorial and local columns are not for
sale.

c. L. RAwLISS, the democratic
nominee for district attorney, is one Of
the brightest lawyers in the county.
BY close attention to business he has
built up large legal practice. The
nomination came TO him unsolicited,
which is an honor conferred upon but
few people IN the territory. He will
make an able criminal prosecutor, and
the legal business OF the county will
be safe in his hands.

AS exemplifying the pitch to which
Roman epicureanism was carried and
Indicative of truly barbaric nature,
dish consisting of the tongues alone of
some thousands of the fayorite song
sters of the air was requisitioned at
immense cost to satisfy the inordinate
cravings of one of the emperors. One
can hardly avoid the reflection that
such a being must have been extreme
ly untuneful The liver of a capon
stepped in milk was thought a great
delicacy, and of solid meat pork ap-
pears to have been most relshed.

How Scissors Are Made.

Though no complexities are involved
In the making of scissors or much skill
required, yet the process of manufac-
ture is very interesting. They arc
forged from good bar steel heated to
sedness, each blade being cut off with
sufficient metal to form the shank, or
that destined to become the cutting
part. and bow, or that which later on
is fashioned into the holding portion.
For the bow a small hole Is punched,
and this Is afterward expanded to the
required size by hammering it on a
conical anvil, after which both shank
and bow are filed into more perfect
shape and the hole bored In the middle
for the rivet. The blades are next
ground and the handles filed smooth
and FURNISHED with oil and emery,
after which the pairs are fitted to-
gether and tested as to their easy
working.
They are not yet finished. however;
they have to undergo hardening and
tempering and be again adjusted, after
which they are finally put together
again and polished. for the third time.
In comparing the edges Of knives and
scissors 1t will be noticed. of course,
that the latter are not In any way SO
sharply ground as the former, and that
In cutting scissors crush and bruise
more than knives.

TIT For Tat.

In the peace congress at The Hague
Lord Pauncefote attracted the atten-
ton of the delegates by taking notes
with fountain pen the handle Of
which was formed by the shell OF
dumdum bullet. One day the represent
alive of foreign power, excited by
the heat of the discussion In the inter
ests of eternal peace, said to him
sharply:
Ny lord, II isn't right for you 10 use
that murderous shell in this congress.
The instruments used by persons are
almost emblematic. They can become
q part of themselves, an expression OF
their ideas and OF their personality"
Lord Pauncefote smiled. but said
nothing
The following day his critic, wanting
to write something, turned to the Eng
lish diplomat to borrow a pen. The
ambassador pulled out of his pocket an
old fashioned pen made of gray goose
quill and after the borrower had I'm
ished said:
Monsieur, 1t isn't right for you to
use such an instrument In this con-
gress. The instruments used by per
sons are almost emblematic They can
become a part Of themselves, an ex-
preston of their ideas, of their per
Bonality."

Summer Greens.

Spinach will not do well in the sum-
mer, so that one needs to turn to some
thing else for green's. The two kinds
of plants that have given the best sat
isfaction at the New Jersey station are
the Swiss chard and the New Zealand
spinach The chard is a kind Of beet,
but with the nourishment stored in the
leaf stalks instead of the root. 1t Is
grown the same as beets and thrives
the summer through, yielding a large
amount of substance for the table.
The leaf stalks are large and quite fat,
resembling somewhat those of celery,
and when properly cooked is a fine
dish. Those who are familiar with the
preparation of creamed asparagus will
know how to make a fine dish out of
the Swiss chard. 1t can be sown in
succession until as late as July. Be
sides, the early plants can be topped,
and a new growth of leaves will soon
come The second salad plant to be
highly recommended is the New Zea-
land spinach, which is more like the
regular spinach than is the chard. This
plant seems to prefer the hot weather
and makes a large amount of thick
leaves and tender tips to the many
branches, which may be gathered at
frequent intervals throughout the sea
son.

a very ordinary looking nurse was
exhibiting the new born sister to six
year-old BERTHE.
Look at the sweet little baby, my
dear Is she not pretty2"
But BERTHE, who has been made pain
fully aware from the servants Of the
household that the new arrival will
usurp his past privileges as an only
child. exclaimed with secret exulta-
ton:
"Auntie says that pretty babies grow
up ugly"
maybe they do" assented the nurse,
unable to forbear q smile.
But the smile was lost upon Berthe.
He stood for a moment In meditative
mood, and then. glancing up from his
contemplation Of baby's features to
those Of the nurse, he said with child
ish confidence:
Nurse. you must have been a very
pretty baby"
