THE copper market shows bet
ter tone and more indications OF
strength than for some time past.
Consumers are taking more inter
est in the market, and the large
consumption of the metal is making
itself felt. The influence which
has been persistently depressing
the market seems to have been
overcome, at least for the time,
and the natural conditions of sup
ply and demand are asserting
their right to control. AS state
ments heretofore made show, there
are now no stocks of metal in eX-
cess of those necessarily carried
by producers and refners, while
the consumption here and abroad
is fully equal to the production,
These facts are beginning to
be appreciated, as is shown by the
improving condition of the market.
There is no speculative element OF
any Importance at the present
time, and such advances as are
based upon the actual conditions
of the trade.-Eneineer1ng and

THIS is one of the seasons of
the year that California and other
outside concerns are flooding Ne
vada with catalogues of their
wares, manufactures and products.
Nevada has been, and still is, a
good thing" for California. San
Francisco and Sacramento mail
order concerns offer, in their cata-
logues, alluring inducements to
the Nevada people to buy of
them, but when the cost of freight,
the sending of money, etc, is
taken into consideration, there is
little to be saved in sending away
for merchandise, especially grocer
les and provisions, in preference
to trading with your home mer-
chants. Only few days ago a
Mason Valley farmer was about to
send to California for bill of gro
ceries amounting to about $40,
when the thought-came to him to
see what he could do with a home
merchant. He was somewhat sur
prised to find that by paying his
home merchant cash, adding the
freight bill on the goods he want
ed, and the cost of sending the
money away, he could save close
to S. by giving the home mer-
chant the order for the bill of
goods. The fact should also be
taken into consideration that the
home merchant pays taxes to keep
up the State, county and township
government, spends his money at
home and is one of yonr neigh
bors upon whom you are liable to
call at any time for favor.

SYNOPSIS OF REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.

Following is synopsis of the
Republican platform adopted by
the convention in Reno on the
13th: 1t recites the national party
achievements, endorses Thomas P.
Hawley tor United States Senator
and declares for the election of
United States Senators by direct
vote of the people. 1t favors the
largest use of silver as money
metal in all ways compatible with
the best interests of our govern
ment, and pledges its nominees
for Congress to exercise their best
endeavors to secure the greatest
possible use of silver; endorses
the earnest efforts of the present
administration to enforce to the
fullest extent possible the Sher:
man antitrust law; favors labor
unions and declares for an eight
hour law in mines, mills and smelt-
ing works. 1t tavors expansion,
holds in undying honor the hero
ism and the sacrifices of the sold
iers and sailors of the Republic,
and denounces the Democratic
party for the hostile spirit shown
to our soldiers who are giving val
orous service in the Philippines.
1t uncompromising!y favors the
policy of protection to American
industries and American labor.
1t denounces the repeal of the
Purity of Elections Law, and rec
ommends its re-enactment; oppos-
es lotteries and any constitutional
amendment authorizing them, and
any legislation intended to de-
crease the rate of interest upon
State lands. 1t congratulates the
people of Nrvada upon the revival
of the mining interests of the
State; favors the acquisition and
the exclusive control by the gov
eminent of the United States of
Lake Tahoe and its basin, in order
that no portion of its waters may
be diverted from their natural
channel. 1t opposes the pollution
of the rivers of the State, and de-
nounces anarchy. 1t appeals
with friendship to all and malice
towards none" and earnestly in
vites all good citizens of Nevada
to unite in the achievement of Re-
publican supremacy.
