EngIand's Big Canal system.
This Bridgewater canal is only one Of a
large number of waterways which dis
tribute freight to all parts of England. We
are prone to look upon this as a railroad
country. 1t is a canal country as well.
The United Kingdom has altogether 1907
miles OF canals, and CT these about $500
belong to England and Wales. More than
one-third Of the whole are the property
OF the railways, the others being managed
by private corporations. Many of the
canals are connected with London, one
joins Liverpool and Birmingham, others tap
the country about Leeds, and others are
found in the district Of Sheffield. Ireland
has about 500 miles of canals and Scotland
seventy miles.
Upon these waterways about 40, 900, 900
tons Of freight are annually carried at a
of more than &c. OO, 900. They are
said to pay with horses as their motive
power, and It Is now proposed to run them
electricity, and l understand that some
OF our American capitalists have been look
ing into this transformation as a field for
profitable investment.

A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.


All doctors have tried to cure cat
arrh by the use of powders, acid
ga ses, inhalers and drugs i'll paste
form. Their powders dry up the
mucous membranes, ca using them to
crack open and bleed. The powerful
acids used in the inhailers have en-
tirely eaten away the same mem
branes that their makers have aimed
to cure, while pastes and ointinents
cannot reach the disease. An old and
experienced practitioner who has tor
many years made close study and
specially of the treatment of catarrh,
has at last perfected treatment
which when faithfully used, not
only relieves at once, but perma-
nently cures catarrh, by removing
the cause, stopping the discharges,
and curing all Inflammation. 1t il
the only remedy known to science
that actually reaches the afflicted

The School Election.

In 1887, the Legislature PASSED Il
law specially for the election of the
school trustees for the several school
districts in the STATE.
Said law provides that the election
shall be held on the forth Monday in
May of every year proceeding the
general election. The object OF that
law was 10 take the election of
School Trustees out of politics. The
Legislators believed that il the cleo
tion was called specially Tor that
purpose, the election would result in
more benefit to the public schools. 1t
certainly was IA wise step in the ad-
vancement oi educational principles.
1t is the duty OF the school trustees
of the several districts, ten days be-
fore the forth Monday in May next,
to post notices in three public places
in the district, notifying the people
OF the day OF election. If they fail to

Copper Produc tion IN the United States.


Copper production in the United
States, as reported by Mr.. John Stan
companies, showed decided gain in
March, the total of 24,o3S long tons
for the month being 3 7o4 tons greater
than in February, and 65I tons more
than in March, 1901. Only 800 tons of
the increase in February was from
the outside sources, and the state
ment Indicates that the reporting
mines-includipg all the important
mines in the country-are not re-
stricting their production. For the
quarter ending March 81, the total
put-6332I long tons-was less
than that of last year by 3482 tons,
or 81 per cent, owing to the large de-
creases shown in January and Feb
ruary. The foreign reporting mines.
on the other hand, showed an in
crease for the quarter OF 1902 tons,
showing that the principal European
mines are forcing rather than cur
failing their output.
The remarkable feature OF the
statement is found in the exports
from the United States, which were
2o,oo7 tons in March and for the
quarter 5I,232 tons, or considerably
more than twice those OF the first
quarter OF 1901, when the total was
only 23274 tons. Last year the cop
per exports were only 34.7 per cent.
of the prod uction, while this year
they were 300 per cent. Comment
on these exports is difficult, however.
since it is impossible to tell what
proportion of the metal was shipped
to meet sales and contracts, or how
much was sent abroad for specula-
tive purposes and to affect the stats
ties and the market.
The report of the Tamarack Min
ing Company for 1901 does not make
any better showing than that OF the
y
commented. The company turned
OUT last year I8,ooo,o52 pounds OF cop
per, which cost it--including con-
struction, which IL fairly chargeable
to expenses-II67 cents per pound.
The percentage OF copper in the rock
mined and stamped has fallen bclo W
that OF previous years, and the re-
covery last year was only LABS per
cent, or 287 pounds to the ton. With
the mine management there is no
reason to find fault, and it is to be
noted that there was substantial
decrease in milling costs last year.
The financial statement is the pa rt
of the report which the stockholders
will be likely TO critic1se. The Tam
araSk-under the same management
as the observation-disclosures the same
policy in disposing of its copper,
with the result that the average
price realized was only ID n cents
per pound, or from Is to cents less
than that obtained by the indcPend-
ent companies. The consequence
was that the net earnings OF the com
pany were only S526,Io6, or n little
more than So per sharc-34.S per cent
on the stock. Notwithstanding
this the company paid $40 share
SO per forthcoming out with a de-
hcit OF S6738A at the end OF the year.
As usual, stockholders had no warn
ing of such IA showing, but accepted
the dividends as earned.
1t looks very much az if there
would be things said at the approach
ing annual meeting; and the protest
ing stockholders will probably be
better prepared than Were those of
the Oscrola ut their meeting.-The
